Remarks:

Sections of steam generator (SG) tube no. R20C54 were removed from Diablo Canyon Power Plant Unit 1 (DCPP-1) during the 1 R12 outage in April 2004. This tube was removed from SG '11 to meet the three-cycle frequency requirement of EPRI Report No. 1006255. Tube no. R20C54 had 3 eddy current (EC) indications representative of axially oriented OD stress corrosion cracks (ODSCC) at the Is? TSP (I H) intersection.

Laboratory -examination of the pulled tube was subsequently conducted in support of NRC GL 95-05 requirements for voltage-based alternate repair criteria (ARC) for axial ODSCC. The primary objectives of the examination were the following:

To physically characterize the tube degradation for correlation with field NDE results and to verify that the degradation morphology is consistent with the assumptions made in NRC GL 95-05.

  • To determine the effect of degradation on the burst strength of the tubing and the leak rate under main steam line break (MSLB) conditions.

These examinations included receipt inspection and verification of identity, eddy current testing,,dimensional measurements, ambient temperature leak rate and burst testing, visual and stereovisual'inspections and photography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) including energy dispersive spectroscopy'(EDS) and wavelength dispersive spectroscopy (WDS), fractography, metallography, and tensile testing.

Results of the laboratory examinations are described in this report.

The +Point coil voltage for the largest indication was changed to 4.OOV from 3.99V to be consistent with the value reported in the Framatome Data Management System (FDMS).

In the 2H TSP discussion, the axial extent of corrosion was changed from 0.86 inches to 0.795 inches to reflect axial length data adjusted for curvature of the burst fracture face.

Discussion was added to the paragraphs for R20C54-5B3 (2H TSP) to explain the curvature adjustment made to measured lengths for the axial corrosion profile. Reference 8 was added.

The summary of examinations was revised to reflect the use of adjusted corrosion length data for the 2H TSP corrosion profile.

Changed reference to Ref. 9 from Ref.-8.

Reference 8 (new) was added to the list of references.

FDMS data was added to Table 3.

A column for adjusted length data was added to Table 13.

A note was added to qualify the measurements shown in the figure.

Figure 76 was replaced with a new figure showing the depth of IGSCC plotted against adjusted axial distance.

SUMMARY

Sections of steam generator (SG) tube no. R20C54 were removed from Diablo Canyon Power Plant Unit 1 (DCPP-1) during the 1R12 outage in April 2004. This tube was removed from SG 11 to meet the three-cycle frequency requirement of EPRI Report No. 1006255.'

Tube no. R20C54 had 3 eddy current (EC) indications representative of axially oriented OD stress corrosion cracks (ODSCC) at the is TSP (1 H) intersection.

Laboratory examination of the pulled tube was subsequently conducted in support of NRC GL 95-05 requirements for voltage-based alternate repair criteria (ARC) for axial ODSCC.

The primary objectives of the examination were the following:

To physically characterize the tube degradation for correlation with field NDE results and to verify that the degradation morphology is consistent with the assumptions made in NRC GL 95-05.

To determine the effect of degradation on the burst strength of the tubing and the leak rate under main steam line break (MSLB) conditions.

These examinations included receipt inspection and verification of identity, eddy current testing, dimensional measurements, ambient temperature leak rate and burst testing' visual and stereovisual inspections and photography, scanning electron' microscopy (SEM) including energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and wavelength dispersive spectroscopy (WDS), fractography, metallography, and tensile testing.

The laboratory examinations confirmed axial intergranular stress corrosion -cracking (IGSCC) in the 1H TSP region of this tube. A through wall defect was present in the 1H TSP region as confirmed by leak rate testing and later by SEM fractography. The total axial extent and through wall extent of this defect were 0.70 and 0.12 inches, respectively. "In addition, two'smaller IGSCC cracks were present at other circumferential'locations. :The burst pressure for this section was 5,819 psi. The corresponding free span region without defects burst at 11,695 psi.

The burst pressure for the 2H TSP section was 10,428 psi. Post-burst inspection revealed two patches of intergranular corrosion that had not been 'detected during 'eddy current inspection prior to tube pull.

These patches exhibited grid-like patterns of axial: and circumferential cracks, dubbed by the industry as "cellular corrosion" by virtue of its appearance. Cellular corrosion is generally shallow and transitions to predominantly axial cracks -as the cracking progresses. This behavior was confirmed in this examination by grinding radially through the two patches of corrosion. The maximum depth of the corrosion in the 2H burst region was found to be less than 48% through wall. A review of the eddy current data records confirmed that the corrosion was not detected by either the bobbin or rotating eddy current probes during the field inspection.

On.review, a small, single volumetric indication (SVI) was found in the post-pull rotating coil data.

SEM/EDSNWDS'analysis revealed the presence of sulfur on the "2H burst rupture surface.

Sulfur is known to be detrimental to Alloy 600 and has been previously implicated in intergranular corrosion.

Diablo Canyon Power Plant Unit 1 (DCPP-1) is one of two pressurized water reactor plants operated by the Pacific Gas and Electric Company. Unit' 1 is an 1125 MWe plant that went into commercial operation in May 1985. DCPP-1 has four Westinghouse Model 51 recirculating steam generators'with 3388 U-tubes each. The tubing material is 7/8 inch OD mill annealed Alloy 600, with a nominal wall thickness of 0.050 inch. The tubes were initially roll expanded -into -the tubesheet several inches from the primary side. Before unit startup,.the tubes were expanded along the full tubesheet depth using the'WEXTEX ebxplosive process to eliminate the tube to tubesheet crevice. The'tubes are. supported along their length by drilled-hole carbon steel tube support plates (TSP).

During the scheduled 1R12 outage in February 2004, sections of 1 tube -

R20C54 - were removed from steam generator 11 to -meet the' three-cycle frequency requirement of EPRI Report No. 1006255. During inspection, this tube was found to have a field bobbin coil eddy current (EC) indication at the 1 st TSP (1 H) intersection. This indication was confirmed by rotating coil EC to be axially oriented OD stress corrosion cracking (ODSCC).

1.2 Examinations Performed Laboratory examinations of the pulled tubes were conducted by Framatome ANP, Inc. (FANP) and by BWX Technologies, Inc. (BWXT) under contract to FANP, in support of NRC GL 95-05 requirements for voltage-based alternate repair criteria (ARC) for axial ODSCC.

The primary objectives of the examinations were the following:

  • To characterize tube degradation (i.e., morphology, size, and extent) for correlation with field NDE results and to verify that the. degradation morphology is consistent with the assumptions made in NRC GL 95-05.
  • To determine the effect of degradation on the burst strength of the tubing and the leak rate under main 'steam line break (MSLB) conditions.

These examinations included receipt inspection and verification of identity, eddy current testing, dimensional measurements, leak rate and burst testing, visual and stereovisual inspections and photography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) including energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS),

fractography, metallography, and tensile testing.

Data from these examinations1 are summarized and discussed in this report.

'Destructive examination data included in this report is from the following document: Examinations of Diablo Canyon Unit I Steam Generator Tube Sections from R20C54, BWX Report No. 1140-031-04-12, August 2004.

Tube Failure Analysis 2.1 Receipt Visual Inspection Sections of tube number R20C54 from Diablo Canyon SG 11 were received at the Framatome ANP (FANP) SERF-4 facility on Wednesday, May 5 2004. The tube sections removed and their relative elevation -in the steam generator are illustrated in Figure 1. Section (piece) numbers 3, 4, and 5, containing the IH and 2H TSP locations and the free span tubing between these locations were unpacked, inspected, and prepared for testing. Results of the receipt inspection are documented in Reference 1 and are summarized in Table 1.

Figure 2 illustrates the typical as-received appearance of tube number R20C54 at the 1H TSP intersection. As can be seen in the photograph, the location at which the support plate contacted the tube is clearly visible from the remaining' accumulation of deposits.

rNote the almost complete absence of scale on the OD. With the exception of the TSP locations, the OD of all sections of R20C54 inspected was free of the scale normally found on pulled tubes.' This is attributable to steam generator'chemical cleaning operations conducted prior to tube removal. *A small amount of deposit

'remains at the TSP locations; at the 2H TSP, the remaining deposit had the appearance of having been "packed", or compressed, in the tube to TSP crevice region.

In general, the OD of the tube was gun-metal grey in color, with axial patches and spots of copper colored oxide (Figure 2) present on all of the sections.

During the receipt inspection, an axial notch -50% TWN was placed on the OD at the bottom end of each tube section using a Dremel tool and-small cut-off wheel. In subsequent examinations, all field and laboratory axial positions are referenced from the bottom end of the tube sections and all angular orientations are referenced to the notch, with angles increasing in the clockwise (CW) direction looking at the bottom end of the tube.

2.2 Eddy Current Inspection Following receipt inspection and prior to leak rate testing, tube sections R20C54-3 and R20C54-5 were inspected with bobbin coil and 3-coil rotating pancake coil (RPC). These inspections used a'Zetec 0.720 inch diameter M/ULC bobbin -coil and a Zetec 0.720-inch diameter Delta' head 3-coil RPC containing a 0.115-inch diameter pancake coil, a +Point'coil, and a 0.080-inch diameter high frequency pancake coil. Zetec ZAC/EddyNet 11i Patch 1.11 software was used for data acquisition and Ili Patch 1.9 software was used for data analysis.

The Examination Technique Specification Sheets (ETSS's) in PG&E Procedure NDE ET-7 Rev. 4 were followed for all data acquisition and analysis'. Complete details of the examinations, including graphics, can be found in Reference 2.

15

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 Results of the receipt eddy current inspection are summarized and compared with data from both the initial in-generator examination (pre tube pull),and the on-platform (post tube pull) examination in Tables 2 and 3. In Table 3, the angular orientation of the indication in degrees is included in the "Call" column as measured 'clockwise (CW) from the reference slit in the bottom of the tube section.

The following paragraphs discuss the results for each tube section inspected.

R20C54-3, 1 H The field bobbin coil inspection identified a 5.60 volt (V) DOS2 indication approximately in the middle of the 1 H TSP. The +Point coil identified three single axial indications (SAI) at this location, with the largest indication measured-at 4.OOV. Following tube pull, the bobbin voltage increased to 6.71V (on platform) and 6.83V (in lab). The rotating probe voltage increased to 4.61V (on platform) and 4.48V (in lab). These increases in voltage may have occurred as a result of ligament tearing between micro cracks-and/or a change'in the width of the crack following removal of the tube from the steam generator; i.e., the primary crack may have opened up slightly when no longer constrained by the TSP or deposits within the TSP. The largest SAI was estimated to be 88 to 91% through wall and positioned 190 from the reference notch. The two smaller SAl's were positioned 330° and 2920 from the reference notch:

R20C54-5, 2H A dent indication (DNT) was recorded with the bobbin coil during the in-generator, on platform, and lab inspections in approximately the middle of the 2H TSP; however, no degradation was noted with either the bobbinor rotating coils.

The dent voltage decreased following tube pull, which may reflect removal of the influence of the tube support plate on the dent signal.

Although no degradation was initially reported, 2 patches of intergranular corrosion approximately 1800 apart were visually -observed within the' 2H TSP region following burst testing (see Section 2.8 for details). The tube had burst within the patch of corrosion centered at' 30' from the reference notch. As a result, the eddy current data acquired prior to and following the tube pull was reviewed once again to determine if the intergranular corrosion was detectable.

A careful review of the bobbin coil data revealed no indication of degradation other than the dent indication that was reported initially.

Review of the rotating coil data revealed a small volumetric indication only detectable after the tube section had been removed from the steam generator.

The location of the volumetric indication was -450 clockwise from the reference notch. To provide an estimate of its depth, a phase curve was set using the ASME standard drill holes.

Only the data acquired in the lab included a 2 A "DOS" indication is defined as a distorted support plate signal with a possible OD indication.

calibration using the ASME standard, so no depth is given in the table for the platform data.

Results of the data review are summarized in Table 4.

2.3 Leak Rate Testing Room temperature leak rate testing was performed per EPRI guidelines[3 on the two sections of tubing containing the TSP intersections.,-The test setup used the'-

Framatome ANP insitu pressure test system and consisted of a full length tool head locked into the bottom end of each sample as a' water supply probe and a full length tool head locked into the top end of each tube'as a vent and stopper probe.

Test pressures included 1750 psi (normal operating pressure corrected for temperature and gauge effects), 2250 psi (intermediate pressure), and 2750 psi (MSLB pressure corrected for gage -effects and for the effect of temperature on material properties). The tests were conducted with approximately 2 minute hold periods at each of these pressures. Results of the leak test are summarized in Table 5.

The test pressure and leak rate versus time (time in seconds) results for tube section R20C54-3 are shown in Figure 3. Tube section R20C54-5 (2H TSP) did not leak at any of the pressure differentials tested. Tube section R20C54-3 (IH ITSP) developed a small leak at the highest pressure tested..The maximum leak' rate recorded during the 5 minute hold period was -0.002:gpm.'

After-2

-minutes, the" leakage decreased first to -0.001 gpm and then to less than detectable (<0.001 gpm). Although deionized water-was -used in the tests'to t

minimize the potential for particles in the water, it's possible that particulates in the pulled tube test specimen may have deposited within the crack.

I jComplete details of the leak rate tests can be found in Reference 4.

Following leak rate testing, the tube sections were reexamined visually and Section R20C54-3 (1H TSP) was'subjected to-repeat eddy current inspection with the 3-coillrotating probe.' The'eddy current inspection results before and after leak rate testing for-this section are summarized in Table 6. -Line by line phase angle sizing comparisons for the field (in-generator-and on-plafform), the lab receipt (pre leak rate' test),- and -the post leak rate test -eddy: current inspections are shown in Figures 4 through 6 for the-3 single axial indications.

Note that the indicated'flaw lengths increased for the primary defects' following LI Jleak rate testing.

2.4 Furnace Oxidation t

Because only-the -IH intersection leaked and thus -may have experienced ligament tearing during the leak rate test, Section R20C54-3 (1H TSP) was placed in an atmospheric furnace and held at 900OF for 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> to heat tint/oxidize U

any torn ligaments. The objective was to allow any tearing that occurred during leak rate testing to be distinguished from tearing that would occur later during 17

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 burst testing.

The time and minimum temperature required to oxidize the ligaments were selected based on'a qualification test program carried out in advance of the leak rate testing.151 Figure 7 is a photograph of tube no.,R20C54-3 at -190 rotation taken following the oxidation step. As expected, the magnetite scale took on a burnished color as a result of oxidation.

Note that at this magnification, the suspected ODSCC defect at the -19° orientation is visible.

2.5 Post Oxidation Inspections Low magnification photographs were taken at 450 intervals at the TSP regions on

-both tubes to document their overall condition following the leak rate testing and furnace oxidation. These photographs are provided in Figures 8 - 23.

The bottom end of each tube segment is always positioned to the left in these

,photographs.

A photo mosaic of the axial crack that was detected by eddy current testing at:-

-190 on 1H is presented in Figure 24. It was visible from -0.2 inches to -0.6 inches from the bottom of the TSP region (after burst testing, the actual length was determined to be 0.7 inches, beginning at the bottom of 'the TSP region).

Possible cracks were also visible near '285', extending from -0.3 inches to -0.4 inches from the bottom of the TSP, as shown in Figure 25. 'These may correspond to the eddy current indication (SAI #3) identified at 2920. :No visible cracks were found that could be attributed to the eddy current indication (SAI #2) at 3300.

No visible evidence of corrosion was found in the 2H TSP region.

2.6 Sectioning Diagrams Detailed sectioning diagrams for all of the tube sections examined are provided in Figures 26 - 31. The secondary' defect locations indicated by eddy current testing are shown in Figure 27.

In the following discussions of test results, reference will be made to specific tube sections as defined in these diagrams.

2.7 Burst Testing Sections containing the 1 H (R20C54-3B)'and 2H (R20C54-5B) TSP regions were subjected to burst testing at room' temperature in accordance 'with EPRI guidelines for leak and burst testing 6], along with a free span region from Section R20C54-4. In -addition, a control sample' of virgin tubing was tested for baseline purposes.' The burst tests were performed simulating free span'conditions with no supports enveloping the tube segments. Silicon plastic bladders were used in all the samples, and 0.006":thick brass shim was used at the 1 H defect location in accordance with the-EPRI guidelines. These guidelines also stipulate a pressurization rate of 20 - 500 psi/sec, as measured between -2,000 psi and

-6,000 psi (prior to'yield), or up'to the point of rupture in the case of the defect specimens. -During these tests, the pressurization rates ranged from 602 to 772 psi/second. The higher pressurization rate is not believed 'to have affected the 18

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 test results, since previous guidelines 7 1 had stipulated a pressurization rate of 200 - 2000 psi/sec, and hence these higher pressurization rates are consistent with earlier test guidelines and results.

Burst test results are summarized in Table 7.

Dimensional measurements required by the EPRI guidelines are provided in Tables 8 - 11. All fish mouth:

burst openings were axially oriented. Specimen R20C54-3B, which' contained':

the 1H TSP, burst at 5,819 psi. Specimen R20C54-5B, which contained the 2H TSP, burst at 10,428 psi.

Specimen R20C544B, which was the free 'span section, burst at 11,695 psi. The tube control sample, from heat #754225, burst at 10,145 psi.

2.8 Macro Photography/Stereovisual Examinations of Post-burst Regions Following burst testing, visual inspections were performed at low magnification to characterize the burst ruptures and associated areas of interest.

Low magnification photographs were taken at 450 intervals in the TSP regions, and of

'the burst opening on the free span section of tubing. Photographs were taken of additional selected areas during the stereovisual examinations -of these' tube sections as described in the following paragraphs. The bottom end of each tube segment is always to the left in these photographs.

R20C54-3B (1 H TSP)

Macro photographs of this tube section in 450 intervals are provided in Figures-32

- 39, and a similar photograph centered over the fish mouth opening at 190 is provided in Figure 40.

Higher magnification photographs of the f counter clockwise (CCW) and clockwise (CW) burst rupture surfaces, showing the oxidized intergranular corrosion areas, are provided in Figures 41 and -42. The burst region was located at approximately 190, with' the bottommost extent 6of the oxidized defect region near the bottom of the TSP.

SEM fractography (Section 2.9) later revealed a total axial extent of -0.7 inches and a length'of -0.12 inches where the defect was 100% through wall.

A secondary crack was located at -3500, parallel to the burst rupture, which extended from -0.1 inches to -0.2 inches from the bottom -of the TSP. This can be seen in Figure 43. Additional secondary cracks were located at -355°,' also parallel to the burst rupture, and which extended from -0.5 inches to -0.7 inches from the bottom of the TSP. These can be seen in Figure 44.

R20C54-4B (Free Span)

The fish mouth rupture on (nondefect) free span specimen R20C544B occurred near 350°. A photograph of the burst rupture is provided in Figure 45.

As described in Section 2.9, SEM fractography verified that the' failure was completely ductile, with no IGSCC present.

R20C54-5B (2H TSP)

Macro photographs of this tube section in 450 intervals are provided in Figures 46

- 53, and a similar photograph centered over the fish mouth opening at 300 is 19

A ARIEVA 51-5046570-01 provided in Figure 54.

Higher magnification photographs of the CCW and CW burst rupture surfaces are provided in Figures 55 through 58. This sample was not oxidized in the furnace since it did not leak during leak rate testing. The burst region was at approximately 30°, and was contained within an area of intergranular corrosion which extended from QO0 to 90°, as shown in' the schematic drawing in Figure 59. A separate area of intergranular corrosion, which is also shown in the schematic drawing in Figure 59, extended from -235° to -3050.

From the macro photographs, it is apparent that the intergranular corrosion extended above the 0.75-inch long TSP intersection in the region from' 0° to 900. This was later confirmed by SEM fractography (Section 2.9), which revealed a total preburst axial extent of corrosion of -0.795 inches along the burst rupture surface.

This observation suggests that a small sludge pile or accumulation of deposits may have been present on top of the 2H TSP in this location from 00 to 90° during some period in time.

The intergranular corrosion in the 2350 to 3050 region appears to be contained within the 0.75-inch long TSP contact region.

2.9 SEM Fractography Standard internal distance calibrations on the SEM are routinely performed at 1OOX. To ensure that these calibrations were still valid at the 50X range used to obtain the photo mosaics, a section of metallic ruler that could be placed in the SEM was photographed adjacent to a calibrated stage micrometer used on the metallograph.

Comparisons between the 'calibrated stage micrometer,, the section of ruler, and the internal SEM calibrations, provided traceability and indicated that the measurements were accurate to +/-1% (+/-0.0005 inches for a 0.050 inch nominal wall thickness).

R20C54-3B2 (1 H TSP)

Low magnification photo mosaics of the counterclockwise (CCW) fracture surface from R20C54-3B2 are provided in Figure 60 (rotated 180° to keep axial bottom to the left in this report). The secondary electron (SE) image provides the best topographical information, whereas' the backscattered electron (BSE) image provides information on material density (less dense materials, such as oxides and plastic bladder material, show up darker).

Higher magnification photographs typifying the areas at the bottom, center, and top of the fracture surface are provided in Figures 61 - 67 (rotated 1800 to keep the axial bottom to the left throughout this report).

The actual depth measurements of intergranular corrosion were obtained from photographs such as these.

This data is tabulated in Table 12.

The starting point for these measurements was' at the bottom edge of the IGSCC, and axial lengths were measured at the mid-wall of the tubing. 'Based upon these measurements, the total axial extent of the intergranular corrosion was 0.7 inches, with 100%

through wall cracking (>0.052 inches) extending over an axial extent of 0.12 inches. A plot of the depth of intergranular corrosion is provided in Figure 68a.

No oxidized ductile tear regions, which would have indicated tearing during the 20

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 leak test, were identified. Comparison of the measured crack depth profile vs.

the post-leak rate test RPC data is shown in Figure 68b. The measured crack depths were normalized using a nominal wall thickness of 0.052 inches.

R20054-5B3 (2H TSP)

Low magnification photo mosaics of the clockwise (CW) fracture surface from R20C54-5B3 are provided in Figure 69.

Higher magnification photographs typifying the areas at the bottom, center, and top of the fracture surface are provided in Figures 70 - 75. The actual depth measurements of intergranular Corrosion along the fracture surface were obtained from similar photographs,'and this data is tabulated in Table 13. The starting point for these measurements was at the bottom edge of the' corrosion, and axial lengths were measured at the mid-wall of the tubing.

Based upon

'these measurements, the total axial extent of the intergranular corrosion was, 0.86 inches, and the maximum depth was 0.0239 inches (46% TW based on a 0.052-inch nominal wall thickness). Since the non-corroded portion' of the tube wall experienced significant thinning and axial strainr prior to burst, the axial extent of corrosion as measured along the'fracture face was greater than the pre-burst length. The measured axial positions were adjusted in Reference 8 to account for this effect. The adjusted cumulative lengths are tabulated in Table 13 and the depth of the intergranular corrosion is plotted against these values in Figure 76 to illustrate the actual corrosion profile. As can be seen in 'the table and in Figure 76, the adjusted overall extent of intergranular corrosion is 0.795 inches, approximately 0.045 inches beyond the uppermost edge of the'2H TSP.

The location of the deepest'corrosion is between 0.679 and 0.735 inches from the bottom edge of the 2H TSP and therefore contained within the 2H TSP thickness.

R20C54-4B (Free span)

Secondary electron images showing the lack of corrosion in the free span burst sample are provided in Figures 77 and 78.

2.10 EDSIWDS Analyses R20C54-5B3 (2H TSP Region)

Areas on the burst rupture surface of R20C54-5B3 (2H TSP) were examined using energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) -to look for the-presence of detrimental elements that may have contributed to the intergranular corrosion.

This sample was selected since it had not been subjected to ihigh-temperature oxidation in the furnace (the 1 H TSP region was oxidized in this manner). Sulfur, silica, and potassium were detected on the fracture surface as shown in the EDS spectrum in Figure 79. The presence of sulfur was confirmed and trace levels of magnesium and'lead were also indicated by wavelength dispersive spectroscopy (WDS) analysis.

21

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 Copper Colored Deposits in Free span Areas Copper colored deposits were visible on some areas of the tubing OD in the free span areas.

A typical example is shown in Figure 80.

EDS analysis was performed to identify this material, and as shown in Figure 81, it was composed of aluminum, zinc, and oxygen. Neither copper metal nor copper oxides were detected.

2.11 Defect Metallography Transverse Metallographic Cross-Sections Transverse metallographic cross-sections were prepared through two areas of

-the 1H TSP, corresponding to the axial locations of the secondary eddy-current' indications (SAI #2 and SAI #3 in Figure 27). The first of these -(SAI-#3) was at the approximate axial centerline of the TSP at 2920, and the second (SAI #2) was approximately 0.1 inches above the axial centerline of the TSP at 330Q.O These transverse metallographic cross-sections provided information on the extent and depth of IGSCC around the circumference of the tube away-from the actual burst region. Serial grinding was not performed on these samples, so the maximum depth of IGSCC observed does not necessarily reflect the actual maximum depth indicated by eddy current testing.

R20C54-3B2B1 (1 H TSP centerline)

Figure 82 is a polished cross-section showing a 53% through wall secondary crack at 2980 that corresponds to the approximate location of eddy current indication SAI #3 (at 2920). The intergranular nature of the cracking is apparent in the etched photomicrograph of the same area in Figure 83. A number of other axial intergranular penetrations were noted around the circumfere nce of the tube at this location, and these are tabulated in Table 18.

R20C54-3B2B2 (1 H TSP centerline + 0.1 inch)

Figure 84 is a polished cross-section showing a 40% through wall secondary_

crack at 330° that corresponds to the approximate-location of a secondary eddy current indication at 3300 (SAI #2). The intergranular nature of the cracking is apparent' in the etched photomicrograph of the same area in Figure 85. A number of other axial intergranular penetrations were noted around the circumference of the tube at this location, and these are tabulated in Table 19. It should be noted that several relatively deep cracks (47% to 65% TW) were located on both sides of the primary crack-(burst rupture) at 19°.

Radial Grinding Serial grinding was performed normal to the tube surface (radially) on mounted specimens taken from the 2H TSP region to better characterize the two regions of intergranular corrosion (see: Figures 31 and 59 for locations).

Each metallographic sample was flattened in a vise prior to mounting so that the ground surface would be parallel to the flattened tube-surface. Following each incremental grind, the specimens were polished and photographed using the 22

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 backscattered electron imaging mode on the scanning electron microscope.

Serial grinding continued in -0.005 inch increments until all evidence of intergranular corrosion was no longer present. The depth of each polished face from the OD surface is provided in Table 14.

These areas of corrosion exhibited grid-like patterns of OD axial and circumferential cracks. By virtue of itsi appearance, the industry has dubbed this, type of degradation as "cellular corrosion". 'Cellular corrosion is generally shallow and transitions to predominantly axial cracks as the cracking progresses inward from the OD. As can be seen in the photographs discussed below, this 'behavior was observed during the radial grinding.

R20C54-5B3BB1 (2H TSP)

Sample 5B3B1 consisted of the region immediately clockwise from the burst rupture, extending from approximately 300 to 450. SEM fractography previously' characterized the burst rupture surface along the edge of-this. sample.

Intergranular corrosion was present through the fourth grind (0.022" from the OD), but none was present on the polished face after the fifth grind (0.028").

This is consistent with the maximum depth of 0.024" measured from SEM fractography on the burst rupture surface.

Overall photo mosaics of -each polished face, along with higher magnification photographs showing details of the intergranular corrosion, are provided in Figures 86 through 99.

R20C54-5B3B2A (2H TSP)

Sample 5B3B2A extended circumferentially from approximately 450 to 1200.- A corroded area was present near the upper portion of the 2H TSP (-0.6" to -0.9" from the bottom of the TSP), in the area from -45° to 800. A second corroded area was present in the bottom portion of the TSP (0.0" to -0.5" from the bottom-of the TSP), in the area from -450 to -90°. These two areas were photographed separately. Intergranular corrosion was present through -the fifth grind (0.028" from the OD), but was absent on the sixth polished face (0.036"). Overall photo mosaics of each face, along with higher magnification photographs showing details of'the intergranular corrosion, are provided in Figures 100 through'119.

For orientation purposes, a notch was placed on the bottom end at _900.'

R20C54-5B3B2C (2H TSP)

Sample 5B3B2C extended circumferentially from approximately 2250 to 3150. A corroded area extended over the region from approximately 2350 to 3050 in the upper half of the TSP. Intergranular corrosion was present through the fourth grind (0.022" from the OD), but was absent on the fifth polished face (0.027").

Overall photo mosaics of each face, along with higher magnification photographs showing details of the intergranular -corrosion, are -provided -in Figures 120 through 131. For orientation purposes, a notch was placed on the bottom end at

-2700.

23

A AR EVA 51-5046570-01 R20C54-5B3B2E (2H TSP)

Sample 5B3B2E consisted of the region immediately counterclockwise from the burst rupture, extending circumferentially from approximately 3400 to 300.

Intergranular corrosion was present through the second grind (0.018" 'from the OD surface), but was absent on the third polished face (0.026"). Overall photo mosaics of each face, along with higher magnification photographs'showing details of the intergranular corrosion, are provided in Figures' 132 through 137.

For orientation purposes, a notch was -placed on the bottom end at -0°.

2.12 Material Properties Tensile Testing One sample from a free span region was tensile tested at 700F, and the results are provided in Table 15. The engineering stress/strain curve is provided in Figure -138.

The nominal tubing OD was 0.873 inches and the nominal'wall thickness was 0.0524 inches.

Bulk Chemistrv A section of tubing was decontaminated for bulk chemical analysis. The analysis results presented in Table 16 are consistent with Alloy 600 material.

Microstructure A longitudinal metallographic sample was prepared from the free span region. A dual etch procedure using phosphoric and nital acid solutions was used to characterize the carbide distribution and 0'grain microstructure. '-The results are shown in Figures 139 and 140.

The carbide distributionr along the grain boundaries was very light, and intragranular matrix carbides were also present.

Hilliard Circular intercept measurements indicated an ASTM grain size of 8.5 (16.4 prm average grain intercept distance).

Summary The material properties discussed above are summarized and compared with the material test report values and 'with the ASME specification for SB-163 (Alloy 600) in Table 17. As can be seen in the table,' the material properties for tube no.

R20C54 are in agreement with both the material test report and the ASME specification.

Summary of Laboratory Examinations The following summary observations were made based on the results of the laboratory examinations documented in this report:

  • Laboratory eddy current inspection of the pulled tube sections confirmed the presence of 3 defect'indications (SAI) at the IH TSP location and a dent indication (DNT) in approximately the middle of the 2H TSP location.
  • The section of tubing from the 1 H TSP location developed a small leak when subjected to a pressure differential of 2750 psi (MSLB pressure corrected for gauge effects and for the effect of temperature on material properties). The maximum room temperature leak rate recorded was 0.002 gpm.
  • Burst pressure for the section of tubing from the 1H TSP location was 5,819 psi. The location of the burst was at approximately 190, corresponding to the location of the largest eddy current defect indication. 'SEM fractography revealed a total axial extent of IGSCC of 0.7 inches, -0.12 inches of which was through wall. SEM fractography also confirmed that ductile" tearing of ligaments had not occurred during the preceding leak rate test.
  • Transverse metallography of the post-burst 1H TSP section revealed a 40%

TW crack at 330° (-0.1 inches above the center of the TSP), in the approximate area of the second eddy current indication (SAI #2). A second transverse metallographic section near the centerline of the 1 H TSP revealed a 53% TW indication at 2980, in the approximate area of the third eddy current indication (SAI #3) reported at 2920.

  • No defects were identified in the 2H TSP crevice during field eddy current testing; however, the tube section containing the crevice region burst at 10,428 psi at -300 in an area of intergranular corrosion. SEM fractography confirmed a preburst axial extent of intergranular corrosion of 0.795 inches, with a maximum depth of 0.0239 inches (46% TVW). The maximum depth of corrosion was located within the TSP thickness toward -the upper edge; however, the overall extent of co'rrosion suggests that a small sludge pile may have existed in this area (O° to 90°) during some period in time, creating the conditions for an aggressive environment to develop' outside -of the'tube-TSP intersection.
  • A second patch of intergranular corrosion was also present in the upper half of the 2H TSP crevice from -235° to 3050. A review of the eddy current data records confirmed that neither area of degradation was detected by either the bobbin or rotating eddy current probes during the field inspection. A srmall, single volumetric indication was found in the post-pull'rotating coil data at

.450.

  • Radial grinding demonstrated that the intergranular corrosion 'within the 2H TSP interface region became predominantly axially oriented as the corrosion progressed inward from the OD.

Conclusions The laboratory examinations confirmed that axial OD intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) was present in the 1H TSP region. The total axial extent and through wall portion of the primary defect were 0.70 and 0.12 inches, respectively.

In addition, two smaller IGSCC cracks were present at other circumferential locations. The burst pressure for this section was 5,819 psi. The corresponding free span region without defects burst at 11,695 psi.

The burst pressure for the 2H TSP section'was 10,428 psi. Post-burst inspection revealed two patches of intergranular corrosion that had not been detected during eddy current inspection prior to tube pull. The maximum depth-of the corrosion in the burst region was determined to be less than 46% through wall. A detailed review of the eddy current data records confirmed that corrosion-was not detected by either the bobbin or rotating eddy current probes during the in-generator inspection. A small, single volumetric indication (SVI) was found in the post-pull rotating coil data during the same review of the data records.

Radial grinding through these patches of intergranular corrosion showed that the orientation of the intergranular penetrations became predominantly axial as the corrosion progressed inward, which is typical behavior for 'cellular corrosion".

SEM/EDSNVDS analysis revealed the presence of sulfur on the 2H burst rupture" surface. Sulfur is known to be detrimental to Alloy 600 and has been previously implicated in intergranular corrosions9].
