Fort Calhoun is considering performing a manual reactor trip at 20% power (Turbine Trip is actually at 15%) when coming down for our fall outage... This would save us approximately 2 to 4 hours of critical path.
If you currently perform (or can perform) this type of technique or have/had experience with this, please provide me a point of contact or any related information or opinions.
Thank you in advance,
Matt Pohl Principal Reactor Engineer - Operations Fort Calhoun Nuclear Station (402)533-6820 (work) (402)561-3864 (pager)
