A TRANSNLJCLEAR ICalculationCalculation No.: 1121-0401 Revision No.: 1 AN ARE VA COMPANY Page: 5 of 25 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of the calculation is determine 32PT DSC basket components and fuel cladding temperatures within the 0S1 97L (75 ton) cask with 18.4 kW/DSC and 11.0 kW/DSC total heat load for off-normal transfer condition. This isthe controlling case (lowest margin to fuel cladding temperature limit) during fuel load and transfer operation. The body of the calculation addresses the 16.4 kW heat load case and Appendix A addresses the

11. 0 kW condition.

2.0 ASSUMPTIONS/CONSERVATISMS The assumptions and conservatism described in NUHOMS0 32PT DSC thermal evaluation

[11 are applied in this calculation.

3.0 DESIGN INPUT - 18.4 KW The material properties listed in [1] are used in the analysis.

1) The fuel assembly used in [11 is used as the limiting assembly type inthis calculation based on the determination of limiting fuel effective conductivity among the fuel assemblies that are considered to be stored in 32PT DSC. Total heat load is 18.4 kW/DSC. The heat zone configuration is shown in Figure 3-1.

Figure 3-1 Fuel Loading Configuration (18.4 kWIDSC)

  • This Is a very conservative assumption for the fuel assemblies (CE 14x14) to be loaded at OPPID In the 32PT DSC. Based on Reference

[1], CE 14x14 fuel assembly has higher effective fuel conductivities compared to design basis fuel assembly used In [1]. Moreover, the use of 0.7 I(W/FA for fuel assemblies In all basket center locations Is also very conservative for OPPD fuel loading. It is expected that fuel assemblies to be loaded at OPPD site will have significantly lower decay heat than 0.7 kW.

2) Summary of ambient conditions considered in the analysis is shown in Table 3-1 below.

~07 maximum off-normal condition [1].

4.0 METHODOLOGY The methodology used for thermal analysis is the same as described in [3]. The DSC shell temperature profile is calculated using a two dimensional thermal model of the OS1 97L cask and DSC shell, and uses the ANSYS [2] computer pro gram. These DSC shell temperatures are than used as a constant temperature boundary condition in an ANSYS model of the 32PT DSC and basket to calculate the fuel cladding temperature [1]. These fuel cladding temperatures are then used to calculate the effect of the transfer cask skid shielding as described in Section 5.3.

The ANSYS models of the 0S197L (75 ton) transfer cask including the DSC shell represent a two-dimensional slice of the OS 197L cask at the axial centerline as shown in Figure 5-1 through Figure 5-2.

Figure 5-2 Details of 0S197L (75 ton) Transfer Cask ANSYS Model The material properties and cask dimensions are taken from [3]. Only the total heat load per DSC is changed to 18.4 kW from 24 kW The method of the heat flux calculation is consistent with the OS 197L analysis methodology

[3]. Note that any heat removed by the ends of DSC is conservatively neglected in calcula-tion of heat flux. The heat flux is calculated based on the 32PT DSC shell length [1] as:

A TRANSNUCLEAR Calculation Calculation No.: 1121-0401 Revision No.: 1 AN ARE VA COMPANY Page: 9 of 25 The radiation is modeled by overlaying surface elements and using the /AUXI2 processor to compute view factors. Radiation to the environment is modeled with SURF1 51 elements in ANSYS. Radiation between the OSO shell and cask structural shell, between the cask structural shell and the cask inner neutron shield panel (or steel shielding) is also modeled using the /AUXI 2 processor inANSYS [3].

The convection to the ambient is conservatively based on average film temperature for convection coefficient evaluation in the ANSYS model. The convection coefficients are calculated based on correlation of turbulent natural convection for horizontal cylinder [4]:

5.2 3D 32PT DSC Thermal Model The DSC outer shell temperatures are based on a 2D DSC/cask model, which assumes no heat transfer inthe axial direction. This 2D 0S1 97L model produces conservative (higher)

DSC shell temperatures, which are used as input to the 3D DSC thermal model, which calculated the fuel clad temperatures. Both the normal (with insolation) and off-normal 0S197L transfer conditions with 18.4 kW/DSC are calculated.

The same basket component and fuel properties from [1 ] are used. Heat generations are calculated based on the dimensions of the fuel and basket. The heat is assumed to be distributed evenly through the 8.7" square nominal fuel cell opening. Axial variations are accounted for in ANSYS by using the peaking factors similar to [1]. The base heat generations with the corresponding peaking factors are applied according to the loading patterns given in Figure 3-1:

The 3D 051 97L caskIDSC shell CFD model was developed to analyze this effect on the cask component temperatures [5].

The effect of the skid shielding on the maximum fuel cladding temperature was evaluated by the following steps:

1) The average temperature of the outer surface of neutron shield outer panel Tout Ns Paver was calculated by CFD run [5] and used to obtain the average DSC shell temperature Tsh av by extrapolation of the results Tsh av = f(Tout NS paver) available from the 2D ANSYS runs for hot off-normal (1170F ambient, no insolation) and hot normal (100 0OF ambient, insolation) cases calculated in Section 5.1.
2) The average DSC shell temperature TOhv , calculated above, was then used to obtain the maximum fuel cladding temperature Truel max by extrapolation of the results Tfuei max=

f(Tsh av) available from the DSC within 081 97L-1 runs in Section 5.2 for hot off-normal (1170F ambient, no insolation) and hot normal (100 0OF ambient, insolation) for the 08 197L cask with skid shielding (See Section 5.2 above for Tfuel max calculation).

The normal condition with skid shielding is bounded by the off-normal as the skid shielding eliminates the insolation and the ambient temperature is higher.

A Calculation Calculation No.: 1121-0401 Revision No.: 1 TRANSNUCLEAR AN ARE VA COMPANY Page: 18 of 25 A.1I Purpose The purpose of this Appendix A is to determine 32PT DSC basket components and fuel cladding temperatures within the OS 197L (75 ton) cask with 11. 0 kW/DSC total heat load for off-normal transfer condition.

A.2 AssumptionslConservatisms There is no change to the assumptions or conservatisms, and those of [1] are applied in this calculation.

A.3 Design Input- 11.0kW This Appendix A provides a thermal evaluation of the maximum fuel cladding temperature for an 11. 0 kW/DSC within OS 197L.

The thermal evaluation is similar to the evaluation described previously in Sections 2.0 through 5.0 for the 18.4 kW/DSC total heat load.

Three different design inputs are used inthis Appendix A:

A.3.I The heat flux applied on DSC shell inner surface for 11 kW/DSC is:

A.5 Finite Element Models The same models, as were used previously for the 18.4 kW/DSC calculation, were used in this 11.0 kW/DSC calculation. The differences were the reduction in heat flux detailed above and the reduction in base fuel assembly heat generations within the basket, which correspond to the reduced 0.40, 0.35, and 0.16 kW/Assembly Zones (Zones I through 3).

A.6 References There is no change to the references.

(2) Extrapolated value based on 2D cask ANSYS runs for off-normal and normal transfer 0S197L cases (3) Extrapolated value based on 3D DSC ANSYS runs for off-normal and normal transfer 0S197L cases (4) Calculated using CFD model [5)

As seen from Appendix Table A-2, the maximum fuel cladding temperature for 11 kW 132PT DSC within OS1 97L are below allowable limits for normal and off-normal transfer conditions without skid shielding, and for off-normnal conditions with skid shielding. The normal condition with skid shielding is bounded by the off-normal as the skid shielding eliminates the insolation and the ambient temperature is higher.
