Dear Sir:

l'

\\

This letter provides a summary of the detailed evaluation of the postulated scenarios i

described in Generic Letter 96-06 (Reference 1), along with corrective actions, for the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant, in accordance with the Authority's commitment in Reference 2. The generic letter requests licensees to perform an evaluation to determine:

i (1) if containment air cooler cooling water systems are susceptible to either waterhammer or two-phase flow conditions during postulated accident conditions; and (2) if piping systems that penetrate the containment are susceptible to thermal expansion of fluid so that overpressurization of piping could occur.

As stated in Reference 2, the systems evaluated for the GL 96-06 scenarios are either not susceptible to these conditions, or if susceptible, retain operability of their safety related function during design-basis conditions. The enclosed report (Attachment 1) provides a summary of the detailed evaluation, and identifies modifications to eliminate the susceptibility of thermal overpressurization. These modifications will be implemented prior to startup from

/

the next refuel outage (RFO 13).

Generic Letter 96-06 (Ref.1) " Assurance of Equipment Operability and Containment Integrity l

During Design Basis Accident Conditions," dated September 30,1996 requires licensees to determine:

1 (1) if containment air cooler cooling water systems are susceptible to either water hammer or two-phase flow conditions during postulated accident conditions-j (2) if piping systems that penetrate the containment are susceptible to thermal l

expansion of fluid so that overpressurization of piping could occur.

t l

On October 27,1996 the James A. FitzPatrick plant entered a scheduled refueling outage. The f

l NRC staff informed the utilities at an NEl meeting on October 29,1996 that plants starting up prior to the 120 day (January 28,1997) submittal to GL 96-06 must perform an operability l

l determination pursuant to GL 91-18 for the systems susceptible to the GL concems. In order to support this requirement, report JAF-RPT-MULTI-02596 " Operability Assecsment for NRC l

Generic Letter 96-06" was developed and issued on 12/2/96 l'

The 120 day response submittal to the NRC, dated January 27,1997, presented the l

operability findings and committed to submittal of detailed analysis results to the NRC by May l-27,1997. The purpose of this report is to summarize the findings of the detailed analyses that l

l were performed to evaluate GL 96-06 and to present the Authority's long term corrective actions.-

DISCUSSION ITEM 1: WATER HAMMER OR TWO PHASE FLOW i

This first issue is primarily concemed with safety-related containment air coolers which are credited for heat removal from containment during DBA conditions. The Generic Letter does point out, however, that water hammer in cooling water systems associated with non-safety related containment air coolers can also challenge containment integrity by creating a l

containment bypass flow path for interfacing safety related systems.

L At FitzPatrick the containment air coolers are the Drywell Coolers (68E-1 A to 1D and 68E-3A to 3D) which are non safety related and are not credited for heat removal from containment during DBA conditions, as documented in Design Basis Document DBD-068 "Drywell Ventilation and Cooling System". Therefore, the two phase flow concem of Generic Letter 96-06, which deals with degradation of the cooler heat removal capability during design basis I

accident scenarios, is not applicable to FitzPatrick.

JPN-97-019 Page 2 of 19 6

I The cooling water system associated with the Drywell Coolers is the non-safety related Reactor Buildmg Closed Loop Cooling (RBCLC) system (FM-15A & B). An interface does exist from the RBCLC to the safety related Emergency Service Water (ESW) system (FM-46B).

However, at FitzPatrick, the interconnecting piping circuits from ESW to RBCLC are isolated by normally closed valves (46ESW-10A&B,14A&B,17A-D, and 15 MOW 102&103). Therefore, the water hammer concem of Generic Letter 96-06, which deals with a challenge to containment integrity by creation of a bypass flow path for interfacing safety related systems, is not applicable to FitzPatrick.

)

Manual operator action to feed ESW to the RBCLC system is controlled by existing plant i

procedure AOP-11, Rev. 8 " Loss of Reactor Building Closed Loop Cooling". Within this procedure several cautions and instruct 6ons are given to the, operator which are directly related to the " bypass flow path" concem. The first CAUTION states: " Cross-tying ESW loops to RBCLC could divert ESW from cafety related loads". The operator is subsequently instructed

)

to monitor crescent area temperatures to ensure adequate cooling water is being supplied to the safety related coolers. The next CAUTION specifically states: " Supplying ESW to the i

l Drywell Coolers could divert ESW from safety related loads". Here again the operator is instructed to monitor crescent area temperatures. Also, the operator is instructed that if the Drywell floor drain leak rate rises or cannot be determined he should isolate ESW from the RBCLC system. This is accomplished by remote / manual operation of RBCLC containment j

isolation valves (15AOV-130A&B,131 A&B,132A&B and 133A&B) from the control room.

There is the potential that a water hammer may occur if the operator supplies ESW to the RBCLC during postulated accident conditions. A procedure change was made to add a i

caution to AOP-11 concoming the generation of a water hammer in the RBCLC system. This I

completes an NRC commitment (JPN-97-003-01).

Additionally, NRC Information Notice 96-60 " Potential Common Mode Post-Accident Failure of l

RHR Heat Exchangers" dated November 14,1996, has been linked to Generic Letter 96-06 by the NRC. FitzPatrick's use of an RHR Keepfull System precludes the concems of this NRC l

Information Notice.

[

Based on the above, it is concluded that the waier hammer / two phase flow concems of the l

NRC Generic Letter 96-06 are not applicable to FitzPatrick.

4 ITEM 2: THERMAL PRESSURIZATION l

GENERAL Generic Letter 99-06 states " Thermally induced overpressurization of isolated water filled piping sections in containment could jeopardize the ability of accident mitigating systems to perform their safety functions and could also lead to a breach of containment integrity via i

bypass leakage."

i

Att:chmint 1 JPN-97-019 Page 3 of 19 l

i l

The industry events presented in the generic letter illustrate that the concem not only deals I

with piping system pressure boundary integrity but also the ability of the isolation valves to allow the systems to perform their safety function. In order to analyze this issue the following evaluation process was used" a thorough review of all Drywell and Suppression Pool penetrations was made to identify those which involved liquid systems, valve arrangements for the above systems were reviewed to determine if isolated I

water filled sections exist and if thermal pressurization was possible, a heat transfer model was developed to determine the effect of the post accident ambient area temperatures on the isolated water temperature for selected penetrations from which trapped fluid pressure was calculated, l

valve analysis was performed on the suscepti;ie penetration isolation valves to determine their maximum pressure retaining capability.

the limiting intemal pressure of the isolated pipe section was then determined, containment integrity and safety system function were then evaluated for the DBA thermal pressurization condition.

SCREENING RESULTS A total of 584 containment penetrations were reviewed, of which 314 contained isolated water sections (Control Rod Drive system accounts for 274 of these penetrations).

l.

Based on the screening process,14 penetrations had isolated water filled sections /potentially susceptible to thermal pressurization.

Two (2) penetrations (X-14 and X-41) were eliminated from further thermal pressurization and containment integrity evaluation since the water temperature during normal operating conditions would be the same or higher than the water temperature under DBA conditions.

One (1) penetration (X-12) was eliminated from thermal pressurization and containment integrity evaluation due to installed valve design features (e.g. bonnet bypass) which limited the pipe line pressunzation to below design pressure.

1 The remaining eleven (11) penetrations (X-8, X-18, X-19, X-39A, X-398, X-210A, X-2108, X-211 A, X-211B, X-224, and X-226) were analyzed at the limiting i

calculated pressure for each penetration.

l SYSTEM SAFETY FUNCTION REVIEW GENERAL The generic letter presented an industry experience for Beaver Valley Units 1 and 2 in which a i

motor operated valve associated with an isolated section of thermally pressurized piping would not open during a curveillance test. Since isolated piping sections which penetrate containment will be exposed to thermal pressurization the potential for systems to fail to perform their safety functions needed to be evaluated.

In order to disposition this issue the valves associated with the penetrations identified above were reviewed for post accident operating requirements. The results of this evaluation are nrasented below.

DISCUSSION i

Penetrations X-8, X-18, X-19 and X-224 (systems associ::ted with the penetrations are described later in the Results Section) do not have safety functions. The associated CIVs are either normally closed or receive a signal to close for DBA conditions and remain closed for the duration of the event.

Penetrations X-39 A&B, X-210 A&B and X-211 A&B employ inboard globe valves with isolated fluid ursder the seats. An increase in isoleted fluid pressure due to thermal conditions would assist valve opening. Therefore, valve operability and consequently system safety function would not be jeopardized.

The valvas associated with penetration X-226 (23MOV-57 & 58) provide a transfer function for the HPCi pump suction source from the Condensate Storage Tank (CST) to the Torus. HPCI pump suction is normally lined up to the CST as the preferential source. Potential thermal pressurization of this containment penetration configuration is due to elevated Torus temperature. A review of the plant transient and accident analyses indicates transfer function is not required except for either initiating events which would render the CSTs unavailable or i

non mechanistic failure of non safety related sections of the system. No accident sequences have been identified which would require opening of these valves coincident with elevated Torus temperature. Break size, rate of Reactor depressurization, quantity of outflow from the CST, and rate of Torus temperature rise are all factors whch affect this evaluation. Since l

. HPCI has a wide range of operating scenarios, all of these factors can very significantly. The available data cufirms that the HPCI systam safety function will not be jeopardized for design basis accident conditions. To ensure availability for the transfer function for the HPCI suction l

Une, NYPA plans to eliminate the susceptibility of this penetration to thermal pressurization by completion of a modification.

Although penetration X-224, which provides a transfer function for the RCIC pump suction source from the CST to the Torus, does not have a safety related system function, it is also h

susceptible to thermal pressurization during operating transients due to potential elevation of Torus temperature. To ensure availability for the tranc.fer function for the RCIC suction line, NYPA plans to eliminate the susceptibility of this penetration to thermal pressurization by 4

completion of a modification.

i CONTAINMENT INTEGRITY REVIEW GENERAL During the initial stages of this evaluation, it was recognized that penetrations X-8, X-12, X-18, X-39A, X-398, X-210A, X-2108, X-211 A, and X-211B would have their pressure conditions i

limited by valve design features. Such features included: a) double disk gate valve designs l

with either bonnet bypass or a drilled disk, and b) globe valve designs with isolated fluid under the seat. For these penetrations, the Authority performed calculations (Ref. 4 and 5) to -

determine the limiting isolated fluid pressure that the penetration would experience due to thermal pressurization.

Stone & Webster Engineering Corp. (SWEC) performed detailed analyses for penetratinns X-i=

19, X-224, and X-226 (Ref. 6,7, and 8) using a zero valve leakage assumption since the initial screening did not reveal a valve design feature which would limit the isolated fluid pressure.

The analyses included: a) a heat transfer model to evaluate the effects of DBA condition area temperatures on the isolated fluid temperatura, and b) a pressure calculation to determine the resultant pressure of the isolated fluid due to thermal pressurization.

SWEC then performed stress evaluations (Ref 9 through 16) to determine the acceptability of the stresses in the penetration section of piping and its associated components due to the thermal pressurization. The analyses performed by SWEC considered the containment isolation valve (CIV) bodies, however, it did not evaluate the valve intemals.

^

Altran Corporation was contracted to evaluate the integrity' of the intemals of the CIVs, due to their extensive involvement in the GL 89-10 program. The results of their evaluation (Ref. 3) provided limiting pressure data for penetrations X-19, X-224, and X-226. The Altran analysis showed that these three penetrations would develop a leak path at the CIVs due to thermal pressurization. The stress evaluation for these three penetrations was subsequently re-evaluated by SWEC based on the Altran pressure results.

A.ECEPTANCE CRITERIA As part of the GL 96-06 evaluation, a review of the FitzPatrick's design code of record, ANSI B31.1 Power Piping Code 1967 Edition, and its Licensing basis was performed. Neither of these two documents provide acceptance criteria for evaluation of fluid expansion effects due to accident conditions. Therefore, stress-based plant specific acceptance criteria using elastic

methodology were developed for this evaluation. The criteria developed is consistent with that l

approved by the NRC for resolution of the torus attached piping issue (References 21,22,23).

Maximum allowable intamal pressures are calculated in accordance with the ANSI B31.1 Code equations (Or minimum wall thickness and general pipe stress (which includes a longitudinal pressure term) using criteria allowed by ASME Section lil, Appendix F and IP-PS-04, Pipe Support Analysis Procedure. Maximum allowable intamal pressures for integrally welded pipe attachment (lWA) pipe supports are calculated using the appropriate load combinations defined in Ref. 20 (Table 4.8.1-1). These " maximum allowable intamal pressures" for each penetration are then compared to the maximum attainable pressure caused by thermal pressurization between the isolation valves. The integrity of the piping is assured when J

maximum allowable intemal pressure values envelope the thermal pressurization levels. The maximum allowable pressures are calculated as shown below.

The leak path for 20AOV-95 is considered to be a non-resealing leak path due to the seat l

materials used in the valve. Therefore, it is considered prudent to provide a long term l

corrective action for this penetration. A hole will be drilled in the containment side disk of the inboard Anchor Darling valve 20MOV-94 to provide a relief path. This modification will effectively reduce the thermal pressurization to approximately 265 psid via a resealing leak path. At this value, the leak path past the inboard valve would maintain the sealing integrity of the outboard ball valve.

1)

The containment side disk of valve 20MOV-94 will be drilled to provide a relief path for thermal pressurization of penetration X-19.

2)

A modification to penetrations X-224 and X-226 will be completed to eliminate the susceptibility of these penetrations to thermal pressurization.

The acceptance criteria contained in this report which was developed for evaluation of the
