1. OBJECTIVE A coupling failure has been observed for the vertical pump shaft of the emergency service water system at Perry Nuclear Power Plant. The failed coupling was found to be have been vertically misaligned by 1". The objective of this calculation is to develop finite element models of the properly centered and off-centered pump shaft coupling assemblies, and then perform stress analyses to evaluate the impact of the misalignment on the coupling. The stress analysis results will also be used later to perform a fracture mechanics evaluation of the coupling.
2. FINITE ELEMENT MODEL The finite element models (FEM) are developed using the 8-node structural solid (SOLID45) elements of the ANSYS software package [1]. The dimensions of the pump shaft coupling assembly, including the two shafts, two keys, and coupling, are obtained from References 2, 3, and 4. Note that the modeled length of each shaft, arbitrarily chosen as 5" from the end of the key slot, is enough to avoid boundary effects. The split rings are not modeled since their purpose is to transfer the down thrust axial loads, which do not contribute to the stresses on the coupling. The dimensions of the modeled geometry are summarized in Figure 1, and the finite element models are shown in Figures 2 through 5. The cross-sectional mesh for both models are identical (see Figure 6).

In order to model the interface between the different components, non-linear point-to-point contact (CONTAC52) elements are inserted between the contact surfaces between the coupling and the key, and the coupling and the shaft. The contact surfaces between the key and the shaft that are expected to be in compression due to the applied load are merged; this is acceptable as the detailed interactions between the key and the shaft is not the focus of this evaluation.

3. MATERIAL PROPERTIES Reference 3 shows that the pump shaft, key, and coupling material is SA582 Type 416, which has a tested chemical composition of 13.5% Cr [5]. Therefore, the elastic modulus for the Type 416 stainless steel falls in the 13% Cr material group of the ASME Code [6], which is 29.2E+06 psi at 80 F, while the Poisson's ratio is assumed to be 0.30. The material of the coupling assembly is martensitic in structure whether in the annealed or hardened and tempered condition. The ASM Handbook [7], which lists the room temperature Young's modulus of martensitic Stainless Steel Grades 410 and 416 at 29.OE+06 psi, states: "the modulus of elasticity is one of the most structure-insensitive of the mechanical properties. Generally, it is only slightly affected by alloying additions, heat treatment or cold work".

This fact is corroborated by materials reference data sheets from various vendors that report the same room temperature Young's modulus of 29.OE+06 psi for martensitic Stainless Steel Grade 410 in different heat-treatment conditions [8].

4. ANALYSIS Reference 3 states that the key is subjected to 42,000 in-lbs of torque, plus a shock factor of 1.1 for torsion. This load is converted to a force couple and applied at the top end of the upper shaft, while the bottom end of the lower shaft is fixed in order for the load to be appropriately transferred. In addition, one node pair between the key and the coupling and one node pair between the shaft and the coupling are coupled axially near the set screw locations to simulate them (the set screws are not modeled) for stability of the model (see Figures 3 and 5). The top end of the top shaft is held axially to prevent any off-axis rotation. The ANSYS input files for the analyses are listed in Appendix A.
5. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The deformed shapes, with the undeformed shapes outlined, of the shafts with the properly centered and off-centered couplings that subjected to the torque are shown in Figures 7 and 8, respectively. The overall hoop stress (SY) distribution on the model is shown in Figure 9. It should be noted that the highly localized maximum stresses seen on the shaft are simply due to the applied torque load at two points at the end of the shaft, which is far enough away from the coupling that it does not affect its stresses. Figure 10 presents the stresses in the shaft and illustrate the localization of the large stresses both in the centered and off-centered configurations.

5.1 Stress Comparison Between Configurations The radial (SX), hoop (SY), and axial (SZ) stresses on the properly centered and off-centered couplings are shown in Figures 11 through 13. Since the primary objective of this analysis is to investigate the root cause of the cracking in the pump shaft coupling, only tensile stresses are of importance. The results demonstrate that all three stress components peak at the edge of the keyway on the couplings, and all of the component stresses on the off-centered coupling are higher than that for the centered coupling.

The comparison between the maximum component stresses is summarized in Table 5-1.

% Difference 35.6% 1 35.4% 1 32.4%

The above comparisons demonstrate that the off-centered coupling is clearly more susceptible to cracking and failure than the properly centered coupling.

PY-CEI/NRR-2758L Calculation EA-254 Rev. 0 Attachment I 5.2 Primary Stress Comparison to Allowables In the original design analysis of the vertical pump [3], the lineshaft coupling assembly was qualified based on the average primary stresses and allowable stresses presented in Table 5-2:

Table 5-2: Pump Shaft Assembly Original Report Primary and Allowable Stresses Component l Primary Stress Allowable Stress Component (psi) (psi)

Split Ring Axial Stress =21,580 30,000 Key Shear Stress = 12,491 20,000 Shaft Shearing Stress = 13,051 Not applicable Stress Intensity =29,155 30,000 Coupling Stress Intensity < 29,155 30,000 The coupling stress were not explicitly calculated but were determined to be lower than those of the shaft based on a comparison of section properties.

The dimensions used in this evaluation are nearly identical to the dimensions used in the original analysis except for the smaller, corroded shaft diameter used in the latter. Thus, for the same operating loads, the design analysis should remain valid.

In order to verify the primary stresses in the coupling assembly, the through-wall stresses from the finite element analysis are linearized at some locations to extract the membrane and bending stresses in the structure. The linearization option is available in ANSYS to allow a separation of stresses across the thickness of the section under consideration into membrane (constant, average value) and bending (linear, variable) stresses. First, the section is defined by a path consisting of two end points, which are at free surfaces, and 47 intermediate points (automatically determined by linear interpolation in the active display coordinate system). Then, the stress results are mapped onto that path and the membrane and bending stresses are extracted. The stress paths for the key and shaft are illustrated in Figures 14 and the paths for the coupling are shown in Figure 15. To obtain the primary stresses, which do not include peak stresses, the stress paths must be taken away from geometric discontinuities of the coupling assembly. Thus, the stress path for the shaft is taken halfway between the end of the shaft and the bottom of the keyway. For the coupling and the keys, the paths are taken at the centerline of each of the component.

The stress intensity calculated for the shaft in the original report includes bending and deadweight contributions, which are not considered in this analysis. Hence, only the maximum primary shearing stresses obtained from the finite element analyses are presented in Table 5-3 and compared to the values calculated in the original report. As expected, for the centered configuration, the stresses are almost equal or less than the stresses calculated in the original report. The off-centered configuration produces V Revision Preparer/Date Checker/Date 0

PY-CEIINRR-2758L Calculation EA-254 Rev. 0 Attachment I nearly identical primary shearing stresses in the shaft and coupling but 33% higher stresses in the top key and slightly lower stresses in the bottom key. This 33% increase in primary shear stress is in agreement with the fact that only 3/4 of the top key is engaged. Therefore, the finite element analysis primary stresses compare well with the original report.

6. CONCLUSION The stress analysis of the ESW pump coupling assembly demonstrates that very high hoop stresses are generated in the localized regions near the geometric discontinuities of the keyway under normal operating conditions. Figure 12 shows that the maximum hoop stresses are at the keyway groove, the exact location where the coupling cracking was reported [5]. Such high stresses in a crevice-like location, coupled with a susceptible material in a stress corrosion tolerant environment, can lead to intergranular stress corrosion cracking. Moreover, the stress analyses indicate that the improper installation of the coupling on the shafts increases the hoop stresses at the keyway by 35%, further augmenting the possibility of cracking.
