SUMMARY

This revision of the Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) System Requirements Manual (SRM) contains requirements derived or taken from key source documents, which include the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct), reports from the Nuclear Energy Research Advisory Council (NERAC) and the National Research Council of the National Academics, and previous versions of the NGNP SRM. The latter document consolidated requirements from prior reactor supplier reports and the preconceptual design report. These requirements were then categorized as high-level programmatic requirements and functional, operational, and technical requirements for the NGNP Project. This report contains the categorized programmatic and technical requirements associated with the NGNP, as well as the derived project requirements, and describes the requirements hierarchy. Project requirements are traceable to initial project baseline documents and are being designed to follow the good practices suggested in the Systems Engineering and Interface Management document, which states that project requirements are:

� Identified, defined, and approved as early as possible

� Documented and placed under change control

� Available to all project participants

� Refined and developed as the project progresses.

This report also provides definition of the design entity’s and design authority’s responsibilities for future design documents. This document presents in detail the attributes of a fully relational database (i.e., DOORS®), which contains the requirements.

As the project matures, a verification method will be selected for each requirement to ensure full implementation. Programmatic requirements are derived from the legislative directives, including the EPAct, and other regulatory requirements through the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) licensing process. The technical requirements are assigned to the applicable Plant, Areas, Systems, Subsystems, and Components (PASSCs) and include assumptions that are made during the design process. These assumptions are tagged as verified and unverified assumptions. For unverified assumptions, the project either knowingly accepts the risk of proceeding with the unverified assumption or completes the necessary tasks to validate the assumption. Changes to the requirements will be controlled in the database and formally adopted by the project via revision control.

By developing, deriving, and documenting the requirements and assumptions associated with NGNP, requirements are tracked with full accounting of each requirement to ensure customer and stakeholder needs are met. Fully implemented requirements are necessary to verify that the project has successfully met customer and stakeholder needs.

1. INTRODUCTION This document constitutes the 3rd revision of the Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) System

Requirements Manual (SRM) for the programmatic requirements and the Plant, Areas, Systems, Subsystems, and Components (PASSC) level requirements. The SRM defines and contains the initial requirements for the current maturity of the NGNP Project. These initial requirements are design-neutral; in other words, they remain in force regardless of the specific design decisions made in the future. Similar to a requirements allocation matrix (RAM), this SRM was prepared at the early stages of conceptual design and allocates, traces, and ensures requirements are properly met via verification methods (i.e., analysis, test, inspection, or demonstration).

As the project matures, particularly after the nuclear system design, plant operating conditions, and plant configuration are finalized, detailed design requirements for the five NGNP areas will be generated, documented, and maintained by the design entity with design authority approval. The SRM is the means of documenting programmatic and technical requirements and tracking those requirements to full implementation. The requirements are assigned to the applicable PASSCs and will include assumptions that are made during the design process. The requirements in this report represent only those requirements identified at the current state of plant design and additional requirements or modifications identified via early conceptual design work. As the requirements identification and documentation process evolves, the scope of these requirements may change. Detailed requirements will be documented in this SRM for all PASSCs as the NGNP matures.

It is the intent of the NGNP Project to meet Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct). As such, EPAct language is adopted as requirements for the project. This SRM was developed under the assumption that funding levels necessary to meet the requirements contained herein will be available, as projected by the NGNP Project.

1.1 Areas, Systems, Subsystems, and Components The NGNP is comprised of five areas: Nuclear Heat Supply, Heat Transport, Hydrogen Production,

Power Conversion, and Balance of Plant. Each area is broken down further into systems, which are comprised of subsystems, which are further comprised of components, as shown in Figure 1.

The requirements captured in this SRM are the high-level functional requirements as well as the operational requirements assigned to the appropriate PASSC requirements. The technical processes contained in the Requirements Management Implementation Plan (RMIP) apply to both the existing requirements contained in this SRM and the future requirements to be developed through various design phases of the project. Table 1 shows the critical PASSCs for a 750°C – 800°C reactor outlet temperature ROT; (see

Figure 1. NGNP plant architecture.

INL/EXT-09-16598)1 and for a 950°C ROT (see INL/EXT-08-15148)2. These critical PASSCs may change as the NGNP is further developed. The reactor suppliers have developed updates to the PASSCs to incorporate changes in reactor outlet temperatures (750°C – 800°C) and in configurations (prismatic design utilizing a steam generator in the primary loop).

1.2 Requirements Hierarchy The requirements hierarchy is based on the physical structure of the plant, and its associated areas,

systems, subsystems, and components for both hydrogen production and electricity production. The lowest levels of requirements are at the plant design level. The requirements hierarchy is structured in a way that allows for further enhancement and the derivation of additional requirements without changing the original structure as the project is further defined. This SRM currently contains the NGNP’s legislative and regulatory, end-user, and functional and operational requirements for the PASSC levels. Assumptions made during the design process are also captured, as verified or unverified assumptions. For unverified assumptions, the project either knowingly accepts the risk of proceeding with the unverified assumption or completes the necessary tasks to validate the assumption.

2. REQUIREMENTS DATABASE The NGNP requirements are managed in an internationally recognized, structured database tool that

aids in the development and management of requirements throughout the life cycle of any given project. The Dynamic Object Orientated Requirements System (DOORS®), produced by IBM Rational/Telelogic, was specifically designed with the ability to link and track the flow-down of requirements through a complex series of requirements modules. DOORS® has been used on large projects of similar size and complexity to the NGNP project and, as such, was selected to manage NGNP requirements. The design entities may initially implement design specification requirements in other software packages. This is acceptable provided the design requirements are received in a format approved by the design authority.

DOORS® enables its users to store data in formal modules, organize requirements in a template, relate different levels of requirements through linked modules, restrict access to the data, enter data directly into the modules, run reports, search requirements, and trace requirements through the various stages of development. Figure 2 is a sample screen of the DOORS® tool.

Figure 2. Sample DOORS® screen

2.1 Database Modules The current requirements sets that apply to various aspects of the NGNP are contained in the Idaho

National Laboratory (INL) DOORS® database, and future, more encompassing requirements will continue to be tracked and stored in the database as the NGNP project matures. The NGNP requirements stored in the DOORS© database are presented in Appendices A and B of this SRM. Figure 3 lists the modules that contain the NGNP requirements.

2.2 Database Attributes The DOORS® tool allows the user to filter requirements based on user selected attributes. From these

filtered requirements, a report can be generated for a specific design. For example, one may filter a module of requirements for a prismatic reactor type with an outlet temperature of 750�C, and the tool will

2.2.1 Reference and Alternative Designs

Due to the current development stage of the project, requirements for both the initial design and the anticipated updates are included. The initial requirements are for maximum operating temperatures of 950°C and the steam generator in the primary loop. The updated requirements reflect a plant with maximum operating temperatures between 750°C and 800°C and a steam generator in the primary loop. Each set of requirements are designated by their respective headings of 950°C or 750°C in the appropriate attribute field. In some instances, requirements apply to both scenarios and will be clearly indicated. As the project continues to mature, more alternative designs and their related requirements may be developed while other designs are retired.

2.2.2 Verification Methods

Each requirement will have a verification method documented in the DOORS® database. The verification method options include those listed in the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) Systems Engineering Handbook, v3.13, as follows:

� Inspection – an examination of the item against applicable documentation to confirm compliance with requirements. Inspection is used to verify properties best determined by examination and observation (e.g., - paint color, weight, etc.).

INL/EXT-07-12999 3 09/10/09 Page: 7 of 104

� Analysis – use of analytical data or simulations under defined conditions to show theoretical compliance. Used where testing to realistic conditions cannot be achieved or is not cost-effective. Analysis (including simulation) may be used when such means establish that the appropriate requirement, specification, or derived requirement is met by the proposed solution.

� Demonstration – a qualitative exhibition of functional performance, usually accomplished with no or minimal instrumentation. Demonstration (a set of test activities with system stimuli selected by the system developer) may be used to show that system or subsystem response to stimuli is suitable.

� Test – an action by which the operability, supportability, or performance capability of an item is verified when subjected to controlled conditions that are real or simulated. These verifications often use special test equipment or instrumentation to obtain very accurate quantitative data for analysis.

2.3 Allocation and Traceability The NGNP requirements are organized in a way to show traceability to the source documents. The

DOORS® tool has the capability to link requirements and visibly show the traceability flow of requirements through the graphics mode view provided by DOORS®. Many requirements currently contained in DOORS® are linked and their flows can be viewed as shown in Figure 5.

2.4 Configuration Control The design authority will maintain configuration control over the programmatic and functional,

operational, and technical requirements, as shown Figure 6. The design authority is the single organization responsible for establishing and maintaining the design requirements and for ensuring that design output documents accurately reflect the design basis (DOE-STD-107-2003)4. The design entities will capture and maintain configuration control over the plant level design requirements.

Programmatic requirements comprise regulatory (including the Environmental Policy Act of 2005 [EPAct 2005]6) and licensing (i.e., NRC) requirements pertinent to NGNP PASSCs, including high-level functional and location requirement. The Top Level Design Criteria, Top Level Safety Criteria, and requirements resulting from Integrated Test Analysis and Acceptance Criteria (ITAAC) Validation are also included as regulatory requirements. The ITAAC is developed and submitted with the design and the Combined Operating License Application (COLA). These requirements reflect the verification tests and analyses performed to provide evidence that the system was built as designed and performs the function intended.

Additionally, following the licensing submittals, it is anticipated that the NRC will issue Requests for Additional Information (RAIs). The RAI and any derived requirements from the responses will be tracked as requirements to ensure that each commitment is fully implemented in the design developed and systems built.

End-user requirements are specific to the intended application of NGNP. For example, an NGNP that provides process heat for an oil refinery will have different end-user requirements than an NGNP that provides electricity and hydrogen. Specific site requirements and technical direction or commitments are also included in the end-user requirements.

Per EPAct, the NGNP documentation and project definition were reviewed by the independent Nuclear Energy Research Advisory Committee (NERAC), resulting in the A Review of the NGNP Project report, which provides additional high-level requirements. Other reports and publications by internal and external entities to the NGNP Project provided feedback into this requirements document. The publications include nationally recognized entities, such as the National Research Council of the National Academies.
