Radiological Conseauences of a Design Basis Fuel Handling Accident Using the AST

1.0 BACKGROUND

GE14 (IOx10) fuel assemblies were loaded into the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (PNPS) reactor core during Reload 13 [1]'. It is anticipated that all future reloads will use GE14 fuel assemblies, as well.

The radiological consequences of a fuel handling accident (FHA) involving GE14 fuel assemblies, using the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.25 [2] were evaluated in calculation PNPS-1-ERHS-XIII.Y-64, "Design Basis Fuel Handling Accident For RFO #13 (GE14, 10xl0) Fuel" [3].

The worst-case activity release for a FlHA results from the accidental dropping of a fuel assembly onto the reactor core during fuel movement [18A, 18B]. A fuel assembly dropped in the spent fuel pool would result in fewer fuel rods damaged due to a significantly smaller drop height [8]. This analysis evaluates the potential radiological consequences for a FEHA involving GE14 fuel in the PNPS core and applying the alternative source term (AST) in accordance with the guidance provided in Regulatory Guide 1.183, "Alternative Radiological Source Terms For Evaluating Design Basis Accidents at Nuclear Power Plants" [4].

2.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this calculation is to estimate the radiological consequences to the public offsite, at the exclusion area boundary and the low population zone, and to personnel in the Control Room in the event of a design basis fuel handling accident at Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station using the alternative source term in accordance with RG 1.183 and for various plant configurations.

Subject:

Radioloaical Consequences of a Desien Basis Fuel Handlin2 Accident Usine the AST 3.0 METHOD OF SOLUTION The evaluation of the radiological consequences due to a design basis fuel handling accident (FHA) involving GE14 fuel assemblies in the PNPS reactor core and the alternative source term (AST) is based on Regulatory Guide 1.183 [4] assumptions and PNPS specific input. The number of damaged fuel rods was used to determine the fraction of the total core activity that is available for release to the environment. All the damaged fuel assemblies are assumed to leak the inventory specified in RG 1.183 to the coolant. The assumptions of RG 1.183, Appendix B are employed to determine the fraction of the released activity that eventually is available for release to the environment. The computer program RADTRAD [5] was used to calculate the doses at the exclusion area boundary (EAB), at the low population zone (LPZ), and in the control room (CR), based on the activity available for release to the environment and PNPS-specific atmospheric dispersion coefficients. Dose consequences are evaluated with and without the availability of the standby gas treatment system (SGTS) filters and the with and without the availability of the control room high efficiency air filtration system. For scenarios without SGTS available, release to the environment from the reactor building refuel floor is assumed to occur via the normal ventilation system out the reactor building vent or directly out of the reactor building trucklock.

4.0 ASSUMEPTIONS

1. The FHA scenario is as detailed in RG 1.183 Appendix B.

-2. GE14 fuel assemblies are involved in the fuel handling accident [1].

3. A conservative value of 2.1 for radial peaking factor is applied to ail damaged fuel rods [1].
4. For purposes of the radiological evaluation, additional inflow into the Control Room during normal ventilation equals 500 cfm, approximately equal to the intake flow rate into the Control Room. In reality, such a high inflow would not be acceptable for heating and air conditioning purposes.
5. During CRHEAFS operation the unfiltered inleakage is less than or equal to 500 cfm.

Subiect: Radiological Consequences of a Design Basis Fuel Handling Accident Using the AST 5.0 INPUT AND DESIGN CRITERIA The dose consequences due to a postulated design basis fuel handling accident (FHA) are based on the following data. The specific computer program parameter input values for receptor locations are listed in the subsequent sections.

5.1 Release Activity In the event of a fuel handling accident it is assumed that a number of fuel rods are damaged and radioactivity is released from the damaged rods. The number-of.rods assumed damaged and the consequent activity available fbr release is as given in Ref. I and RG 1.183.

1. Reactor power level = 2038 MWt.

This accounts for the reactor current licensed power level of 2028 MWt [6A] plus a measurement uncertainty of 0.5%. This is consistent with core inventory as determined in Reference 7.

2. FHA AST nuclide activities at 2038 MWt [7, Table 7-4]

3. . Number of GE 14 fuel rods damaged = 151 [1]
4. Total number of fuel rods in core = 45512 [1]
5. Radial peaking factor= 2.1 [1]

This factor is conservatively applied to all damaged fuel rods.

6. Delay time before fuel movement - assumed.

1. Refuel floor air volume = 7.0 x 105 ft3 [9, page 141
2. Standby gas treatment system (SGTS) iodine filter efficiency = 99% [6B3 [17]
3. Normal operation control room ventilation envelope comprises the Control Room (CR), the cable spreading room, computer room, storage room and corridor. Not including the CR, the net volume of the envelope = 28,620 ft3 [10, page 63].
4. Control Room net volume = 34,280 ft3 [20].
5. Total normal operation control room ventilation envelope net volume = (28,620 ft3 + 34,280 ft3 )

62,900 ft3 [from #3 and #4, above).

6. Control Room normal ventilation inflow/exhaust rate = 1100 cfm
a. Normal operation intake/exhaust rate (for ventilation envelope) = 1090 cfm [10, page 60-63]

b. Assumed additional inflow from surrounding ventilation zones = 500 cfm [§4.0, #5]
c. Theref6re, the total inflow to the CR = 600 cfm + 500 cfm = 1100 cfm.
d. Intake iodine filter efficiency = 0 (no iodine filters)
7. Control room filtered intake - 0.5 hr [ 1, page 11] - 720 hrs ( post-accident):
  • Filtered intake rate = 1100 cfm [6C][11, page 12]

Radiological Consequences of a Design Basis Fuel Handling Accident Using the AST 7.0 CALCULATION/ANALYSIS The potential radiological consequences of a postulated fuel handling accident are evaluated for various plant configurations to determine acceptable plant configurations during fuel movement. The data and assumptions listed in Section 5.0 are used with the computer program RADTRAD to calculate the doses in the Control Room (CR) and offsite, at the EAB and LPZ, as a result of the postulated releases to the environment.

7.1 HA Activity Release The design basis fuel handling accident, as described in Regulatory Guide 1.183 "Alternative Radiological Source Terms For Evaluating Design Basis Accidents at Nuclear Power Reactors," [4] is modeled as an essentially instantaneous release of the radioactivity from the damaged fuel to the coolant and then to the refuel floor. Release from the refuel floor to the environment occurs at a rate such that essentially all the available radioactivity is released to the environment in 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> The activity available for release from the refuel floor is determined as follows.

1. Reactor power = 2038 MWt [§5.1 #1]

4. Activity release rate from the refuel floor = 6.908/hr = 80600 cfm The activity released to the refuel floor must be released to the environment in a two-hour time period [§5.1, #13]. The activity remaining in the building at any time, as accounted for by the computer program RADTRAD follows an exponential decay curve. In order to release essentially all the activity in a 2-hr time period, the activity release rate for use with RADTRAD is determined as follows. Assume that at the end of the 2-hr time period only 106 of the initial activity at t = 0 hr.

As indicated in Reference ISC, in the event of a fuel handling accident, isolation of the Reactor Building occurs before any radioactivity can be released directly from the Reactor Building to the environment [18C]. The control room high efficiency air filtration system (CRHEAFS) is in operation within 30 minutes of accident initiation.

The control room high efficiency air filtration system (CRHEAFS) is in operation within 30 minutes of accident initiation. For this case fuel movement will be considered from 1 to 3 days aver the reactor is shut down.

The activity release scenario is shown on the following sketch. The plant scenario file used with the computer program RADTRAD is detailed in the following sections. The only difference beween release from the RB vent and release from the RB trucklock is the X/Q to the control room (CR). Therefore, computer runs are made only for the RB vent case. For the RB trucklock release case, the CR dose will be determined by the ratio of the appropriate X/Qs.

Radiological Consequences of a Design Basis Fuel Handling Accident Using the AST 7.0 CALCULATION/ANALYSIS (Continued) 7.6 Case 4: FIA Dose Consequences With NO SGTS and NO CRHEAFS 7.6.1 Case 4 Release Scenario For this scenario, it is assumed that neither the SGTS nor the CRHEAFS is available. Activity is released to the environment directly from the reactor-building vent or from the RB trucklock, at ground level. Fuel movement from 1 day to 5 days after reactor shut down will be considered. The activity release scenario is shown on the following sketch. The plant scenario file used with the computer program RADTRAD is detailed in the following sections. The only difference between release from the RB trucklock and release from the RB vent is the X/Q to the Control Room. Therefore, computer runs are made only for the RB vent case. For the RB trucklock release case, the CR dose is determined from the RB vent release case by the ratio of the appropriate x/Qs.
