. l ATTACHMENT l TO JPN-94-057 MOV PROGRAM COMPLETION STATUS AND CAPABILITY OF VALVES NOT VERIFIED BY DYNAMIC TESTING Page 1 of 4 This attachment provides supporting information for a six month extension of the Generic  ;

Letter 89-10 MOV program (Reference 1) at the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant.

The original schedule commitment is the third refueling outage after Generic Letter 89-10 was

~ issued. The extension is needed to complete the documentation and evaluation of the testing -

and valve modifications being performed during the third refueling outage, which is scheduled >

to begin November 1994.

The following information is provided based on guidance from the NRC for schedule extension requests (Reference 2):  :

A. PROGRAM COMPLETION STATUS The Authority has completed the review of design basis system parameters and initial static testing for the 91 valves currently in the program. The Authrity has completed dynamic testing of 30 valves. Dynamic tests are scheduled for an a litional 16 valves during the ,

upcoming refueling outage (RFO) and the startup period following the outage. Initial reviews of DP test results, with linear extrapolation to design basis differential pressure, will be performed before the valves are returned to service.

The Authority has determined that 46 of the 91 valves currently in the program can not be verified by dynamic testing. Evaluations of the design basis capability of these non-testable '

valves are complete and 38 valves are currently setup based on best available information.

The remaining 8 valves are scheduled for modification or adjustment during the RFO. These ,

valves will be setup based on best available information within the original commitment  !

schedule. Additional information regarding the definitions for non-testable valves and the analysis methods used to evaluate these valves is provided in Section B.  :

B. DATA AND CAPABILITY EVALUATION FOR VALVES NOT DYNAMICAL'L Y TESTED Rafioitloos_.ancLClassincatina A valve in the MOV program is not dynamically tested if it is 'Not Practicable to Test' (NPT) or

'Not Meaningful to Test' (NMT). A valve is not practicable to test if that test:

  • will violate a Technical Specification,
  • has the potential to damage station equipment, a requires modification of existing plant equipment, or a requires systems lineups which would result in a safety concem or an unresolved safety issue.

1 ATTACHMENT I TO JPN-94-057 MOV PROGRAM COMPLETION STATUS AND CAPABILITY OF VALVES NOT VERIFIED BY DYNAMIC TESTING Page 2 of 4 NMT means that the valve could be tested, but that test would not provide significant new information. Dynamic testing is not meaningfulif any of the following conditions apply:

i e The differential pressure (DP) thrust component of the total thrust requirement is less than or equal to 10% of the total thrust requirement, for gate and globe valves.  ;

  • The aerodynamic torque is less than or equal to 10% of the total torque requirement, for butterfly valves.
  • The MOV is a globe valve with an open safety function, which is pressure or flow assisted in the open direction, and which has the torque switch bypassed in the DP loading region of the open stroke.
  • The margin between MOV thrust capability (or torque for butterfly valves) at the ]

current field settings and the required thrust (or torque) determined from engineering analyses is at least 100%. This margin is above that already i incorporated for torque switch repeatability, rate of loading, and diagnostic test l equipment inaccuracy. '

Safety _Eunctions oLValves NRLDynamically Tested Table One provides safety function data for the 46 valves in the FitzPatrick program which are NPT or NMT. This table identifies the valve number, system function, and the safety function ,

in the open, close, or both directions. The table also provides a measure of the relative risk i significance for each of the 46 valves. The FitzPatrick Individual Plant Examination (IPE) model was used to develop this information.

Risk significance is a quantitative measure of the effect of a single MOV or group of MOVs on the core damage frequency (CDF) in the IPE Level I analysis and on the radiological release frequency (RRF) in the Level ll analysis. The evaluation performed to determine the risk ,

significance of the FitzPatrick MOV program valves was based on the guidelines of NUMARC l 93-05 (Reference 3). The MOV's were placed into one of three risk significance ranking  ;

categories based on the following criteria: l l

High Equivalent to a 50% or greater increase in the total baseline core damage frequency.

Medium Equivalent to a 10% to 50% increase in the total baseline core damage frequency Low Equivalent to less than a 10% increase in the total baseline core damage frequency.

ATTACHMENT 1 TO JPN-94-057 MOV PROGRAM COMPLETION STATUS AND CAPABILITY OF VALVES NOT VERIFIED BY DYNAMIC TESTING Page 3 of 4 EYaluation Methodology for ValvasERLRynamically Tested Evaluations were performed for each of the valves not dynamically tested to establish thrust target widows for setting up the valves and to identify the need for modifications. The evaluations were based on best available industry and plant specific data, including use of conservative assumptions where specific data was not available.

The evaluation methodology consists of three parts.

  • Calculate the minimum stem thrust requirement for design basis flow and r differential pressure conditions.
  • Calculate the maximum stern thrust and torque limitations based on motor capability, spring pack limitations, and valve and actuator weak link analysis.
  • Apply margin to the calculated thrust and torque values to account for torque switch repeatability (TSR) and diagnostic test equipment inaccuracy. Margin for rate of loading (ROL) is also applied to the minimum stem thrust requirement.

The analysis method used to calculate thrust and torque is described in Attachment II. Values for margin are determined as follows.

The margin for TSR is based on guidance from the valve actuator manufacturer, Umitorque (Reference 4), unless lower values can be justified using site empirical data.

VOTES equipment is used at FitzPatrick and margin for inaccuracy is applied based on vendor recommendations. The Authority previously provided information (Reference 5) to the l NRC on this subject in response to Supplement 5 (Reference 6). ,

ROL is defined as the difference between an MOV's control switch trip (CST) thrust output ,

under static and dynamic conditions. When this difference is greater than the square root of the sum of the squares of diagnostic equipment inaccuracy and TSR, the difference is  !

considered to be ROL.

Margin for the combined effects of TSR, ROL, and diagnostic equipment inaccuracy is applied to the minimum required thrust. A bias ROL value, which is added directly to the minimum required thrust, is determined by calculating the ROL mean for the site DP test population. A random ROL value is determined by calculating the ROL standard deviar on for the site DP test population. The random ROL value is added to the TSR and diagt.astic equipment ,

inaccuracy values using the square root of the sum of the squares method. The resulting sum is applied to the minimum required thrust.

Margin for the combined effects of diagnostic equipment inaccuracy and TSR is applied to the  !

maximum allowable thrust and torque. The margin value is obtained by combining diagnostic equipment inaccuracy and TSR using the square root of the sum of the squares method.

ATTACHMENT I TO JPN-94-057 MOV PROGRAM COMPLETlON STATUS AND CAPABILITY OF VALVES NOT VERIFIED BY DYNAMIC TESTING Page 4 of 4 EyalualiGDRCSults The results of the evaluations for the valves not dynamically tested are reported in Table Two.

This table identifies the valve number, valve type and size, and design basis differential pressure and flow rate. Thrust margin and available valve factor are reported in the table to provide quantitative measures of valve capability. The evaluation results include the effects of modifications or adjustments previously performed to improve design basis capability and available margin.

Eight of these valves are scheduled for modification or adjustment during the RFO. These valves will be setup to meet their minimum thrust requirement with margin for torque switch repeatability, diagnostic equipment inaccuracy, and rate of loading, by the original commitrnent date for program completion.

1. MWIMUM REQUJHED_TBRUST FOR GATE VALVES l Minimum required thrust (MNRT) to operate a motor operated gate valve against a differential pressure is: l MNRT = PL + PE + DPE where PL = packing load - Ibs .

PE = stem ejection force - Ibs DPE = differential pressure effect - Ibs PL is obtained from test data or industry standards. 4 PE is determined as follows:

PE = SA x LP where i SA = Stem cross sectional area at packing - in LP = Upstream line pressure - psig ]

PE is negative for opening stroke and positive for closing stroke.

DPE is determined as follows:

DPE = VF x AS x DP where AS = disc area based on mean seat contact diameter - in

STROKE FLOW PE DIRECTION DIRECTION CLOSE OVER SEAT SA X LP CLOSE UNDER SEAT (LP - DP) X SA OPEN OVER SEAT SA X LP OPEN UNDER SEAT (LP - DP) X SA DPE is determined as follows:

DPE = VF x AS x DP where VF and DP are as defined in the previous section. 'AS' in this case is the valve seat or guide area, as appropriate. Valve factors for valves that are Not Practicable to Test (NPT) or Not Meaningful to Test (NMT), are established using grouping techniques. Each of the valves in the program have been assigned to one of 16 defined groups, based on valve type and manufacturer. There are 8 groups of globe valves,7 groups of gate valves, and all butterfly valves are in one group.

The empirical valve factor data for testable valves in the group is used for the non-testable valves in the same group. Statistical analysis is used to establish the appropriate valve f actor for the group.

MCRVra = MC1001 o X RVF where RVF = reduced voltage factor. RVF = (V/V,)2 for AC motors and V/V, for DC motors. RVF = 1 if V/V,2 0.9. i V, = reduced voltage at motor terminals -volts i

V, = rated voltage at motor terminals - volts

]

i C. Actuator output torque at stall (MCSra) conditions is obtained from end of motor i curve or calculated as follows: 1 MCSto = MSTO X 1.1 X UR X SE where MSTO = motor starting torque at 100% voltage 1.1 = stall factor UR = unit ratio 1

SE = stall etficiency I
