SUMMARY

OF RESULTS:

Purpose (Rev. 000):

This document is a non-proprietary version of AREVA NP Document 32-9045275-001. The proprietary information removed from 32-9045275-001 is indicated by a pair of square brackets " ( )." The geometry and operating condition are Dominion Power proprietary. The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the effect of the insurge and outsurge transients on the Surge Nozzle Structural Weld Overlay (SWOL).

The severity of the insurge/outsurge transients for the Surge Nozzle Structural Weld Overlay requires elastic-plastic analysis.

Since the time required for the elastic-plastic analysis is significant, the analysis cannot be completed before the plant restart.

The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the effect of the insurge and outsurge transients on the North Anna Surge Nozzle Structural Weld Overlay and provide assurance for safe operation of the plant for a limited number of cycles. A complete re-analysis including the insurge and outsurge transients is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2007.

==

Conclusion:==

It is judged that II Heat ups and Cool downs with total of II cycles of these insurge and outsurge transients are acceptable.

Please note that a detailed ASME Section III code analysis is planned to provide a detailed evaluation of the complete number of cycles by the end of 2007.

1. PURPOSE The purpose of'this evaluation is to assess the effect of the insurge and outsuige transients on the Surge Nozzle Structural Weld Overlay (SWOL).

Due to severity of the insurge/outsutge transients, the Surge Nozzle Structural Weld Overlay requires elastic-plastic analysis. Since the time required for the elastic-plastic analysis is significant, the analysis cannot be completed before the plant restart- The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the effect of the insurge and outsurge transients on the North Anna Surge Nozzle Structural Weld Overlay and provide assurance for safe operation of' the plant fox a limited number of' cycles. A complete re-analysis including the insurge and outsutge transients is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2007.

2. ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY The insurge and outsurge transients will only impact the secondary and fatigue criteria and crack growth analysis. The SWOL was sized to meet the requirements of Code Case N-740-1 (Reference 7).

The sizing calculation ensures the SWOL is capable of transferring the loads between the piping and nozzle. Therefore, the SWOL meets all the primary requirements defined by the ASME Code. By definition, the insurge and outsurge transients will not affect the primary stresses and therefore the primary Code requirements are not affected by the addition of these transients The general methodology for the evaluation of the unanalyzed transients on ASME code criteria ate:

1) Evaluate the severity of the transients based on temperature and pressure difference between starting and ending time point, flow rates, number of occurrences, temperature gradients and other factor's affecting stresses usage factors and ratcheting.
2) If transients are found to be severe, evaluation of their impact on ASME criteria will be performed using comparison to similar surge nozzle geometries subjected to similar loads.
3) Reconcile the design and transient differences between the North Anna surge nozzles and the DC Cook nozzles. Nozzle dimensions that impact stresses in the overlaid region ate: nozzle inside diameter, nozzle outside diameter, weld overlay thickness, thermal sleeve thickness and placement, head thickness, head radius. Loads that impact the stresses are transients and external loads..

Finally, materials must be compared for' their physical properties and allowable limits.

3. KEY ASSUMPTIONS There are no major assumptions for this calculation. Minor Assumptions are noted where applicable.

6. EVALUATION OF NOZZLE DIFFERENCES
1) Geometry: A review of geometrical differences indicates that all three nozzles configurations. ae very similar. Parameters critical for' stresses such as OD and ID at the overlaid region are nearly identical. The only diffeience between North Anna Units 1, 2 and DC Cook Units 1, 2 is at the minimum safe end ID that differs within ( ).. The overlay thicknesses have minor variations.. This will produce an insignificant impact on stresses, and subsequently any crack growth that-may occur.. Other -

variations are also judged to have negligible effects on stresses.

( ]occurrences.. This is the most severe and bounding transient fox all the plants. This transient is more severe fox DC Cook Units I and 2 since the average temperature gradient is larger, the pressure change dining instuge/outsuige is significantly higher and finally, the flow rate is significantly higher. Due to these increased severities, DC Cook surge nozzles are expected to experience noticeably higher stresses and its ranges.

3) External Loads: There is a wide spread of external loads between each unit, however, there is relatively small contribution of' external loads to stresses and usage factor since during insmuge/outsurge, there is no stratification load. (It must be pointed out that stratification loads have been considered for the North Anna PRZ Surge nozzle analysis, Reference 6). The thermal expansion is assumed to have a small contribution to fatigue and stresses since the insurge/outsurge is a relatively short event (small variation of thermal expansion load) that happens at the beginning of heat up and end of cool down.. Finally, it is very unlikely that OBE will consistently happen during the insurge/outsuige. Therefore, the OBE will not affect stress ranges due to the insurge/outsurge events.
4) Materials: The materials for the head and surge nozzle of North Anna Unit 1 &2 are not the same as at D. C. Cook UI. The difference in Young's modulus is about( )and the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion is about ( J. It is judged that this difference will cause some impact on stresses, but the impact on stresses and usage is judged to be of low significance that will not invalidate this conservative comparison evaluation. Since the materials for the head and sunge nozzle of'North Anna Unit 1 &2 are the same as for D.. C. Cook U2, the stresses and usage factor are comparable.

The pipe and elbow material for North Anna Units I and 2 is different compared to D. C.. Cook U1 and U2.. However, all the materials are ( 3 and the differences in the properties are insignificant.

7. RESULTS

SUMMARY

ICONCLUSION OF STRESS ANALYSIS It is shown that DC Cook Units 1, 2 surge nozzles are comparable to North Anna Units 1, 2 surge nozzles.. Conservative analyses for- DC Cook Units 1 and 2 qualified the overlaid nozzles to all applicable requirements of the ASMIE code as indicated in conclusions of both documents, Reference 2 and Reference 3. It is expected that using the same level of conservatism as for the DC Cook calculations, North Anna surge nozzle analysis would yield lower, or at worst case, comparable results..

I The prorated contribution of the insurge/outsurge as a sub-cycle is ( 3.The main difference in the usage factor is the level of conservatism. DC Cook U2 was first of'a kind, thus more conservatisms were used. The maximum usage calculated for North Anna surge nozzle without the additional insurge/outsutge transients is [ . per Reference 6. Considering usage factor of ( 3 per Reference 10 of the un-overlaid original nozzle for full amount of design transient cycles to account for cycles spent, it is clear-that the total( ) usage factor will not exceed the allowable limit. In addition, there is

Since two insurge/outsurge events are considered for heat ups and two insuige/outsurge events are considered fox cool downs per- Reference 10, conservatively, it is judged that number of plant restart shall be limited t4( I heatups and cooldowns combined with a total of( ) cycles of these insurge/outsurge transients. This number of' events can be imposed on the overlaid pressurizer surge nozzle with no impact to safety of North Anna Units 1, 2 without detailed analyses of these events performed. Please note that a detailed analysis is planned to provide a detailed evaluation of the complete number of cycles by the end of 2007.

8. RESULTS

SUMMARY

ICONCLUSION OF FRACTURE MECHANICS For the limited number- of proposed cycles, ( )heatups and cooldowns combined with( ) cycles of insurge/outsutrge transients), the amount of crack growth is expected to be very small. Based on the fiacture mechanics analyses performed to assess crack growth at the surge nozzles at DC Cook Units 1, 2 (References 8 & 9), thel Iheatups and cooldowns combined with( . cycles of insurge/outsurge transients contributed no more than ') of crack growth. A similar, amount of crack growth is expected at North Anna which is similar to the DC Cook units, as demonstrated by the comparison in Section 6.0. This amount of' ciack growth is much less than the value currently calculated for- the remaining life of the North Anna surge nozzle. The crack growth analysis was performed considering the existence of a postulated flaw. Post-weld overlay NDE inspection of the surge nozzle was performed for the outer )of the original pipe thickness as per the requirements of ASME Code Case N-740 and no indications were found.. Therefore, for the limited period of time for which this justification is performed, it is assured that the weld overlay thickness is more than adequate to accommodate any potential crack growth due to the heatup/cooldown and insuige/outsurge transients.
