1.0 INTRODUCTION

This document presents the criteria proposed for the qualification of large-bore (greater than 2 inch NPS) piping at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station Unit 1 (SUNGS-1) under the Long Term Service (LTS) seismic review program.

In November of 1984, SONGS-1 was returned to commercial service after a lengthy outage. During the outage, many hardware upgrades were installed to increase the seismic capabililty of structures, piping and equipment.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) evaluated the adequacy of SONGS-i seismic design during the outage and issued a Safety Evaluation Report (SER) documenting their findings [1-1]. The NRC concluded that the Return to Service (RTS) structures, systems and equipment have been adequately designed and constructed to ensure public health and safety under a postulated 0.67 g Modified Housner Earthquake. Other systems were found to be adequate to withstand a 0.50 g Modified Housner Earthquake. The NRC approved the RTS design criteria and analysis methodologies for commercial operation for one fuel cycle. For the LTS program, however, the NRC has required that Southern California Edison (SCE) demonstrate the seismic capability of SONGS-1 according to criteria and methodologies suitable for long term station operation.

Recent discussions with the NRC, as part of the ongoing SONGS-1 LTS licensing process, have led to the generation of this document, regarding the justification of criteria proposed for the LTS qualification for large-bore piping.

Two qualification criteria have been proposed for LTS piping evluation, both based upon limiting piping system strain levels to ensure the piping remains functional. "Functional" piping, as discussed herein, is defined as piping with no significant decrease i n rated flow capacity. The two qualification criteria, as summarized in [1-2], are as follows:

The strain criterion - one percent strain limit for carbon steel and two percent strain limit for stainless steel.

The stress criterion - The elastically calculated piping primary stress, as defined in Equation 9 of the ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code,Section III, Class 2/3 piping for Level D Service Condition, is to be compared to a stress limit of 2.0 times the yield strength (Sy) at the maximum operating temperature as follows:

This applies to both carbon and stainless steel piping.

The first step in the evolution of the LTS piping functionality criteria is the establishment of acceptable piping strain limits. ASME Code Case N-47, numerous piping component testing programs and mechanical properties of applicable materials (stress-strain curves) form the basis for acceptable strain levels proposed for the SONGS-1 LTS program. At the proposed strain levels, the flow area reductions are acceptable for delivering rated flows. Code Case N-47 provides conservative allowable strains which may be applied to piping under low cycle dynamic loading.

As evidence of the conservatism included in the proposed strain criterion, we have proposed that Service Level D seismic load generated strains be compared to Service Level A, B, and C allowable strains as.

referenced in Code Case N-47. Numerous piping component testing programs support the conclusion that ductile piping will not deform to the point of impairing functionality under high seismic excitation. The mechanical properties of applicable materials are reviewed to further support the position that stainless steel should have a higher strain limit than the carbon steel. A detailed discussion justifying the proposed strain limits is presented in Secton 2.0.

The second step in the evolution of the LTS piping functionality criteria is the establishment of acceptable piping stress limits. The nonlinear analysis performed for SONGS-1 forms the basic position for the stress limit. In this nonlinear analysis, the allowable piping strains have been correlated to elastically calculated stresses (using ASME Class 2/3 stress intensification factor approach) in order to define allowable stresses for the LTS program. The primary goal of determining strain-correlated allowable stresses was to provide a measure of piping system acceptability for systems analyzed by practical, less costly linear elastic analysis methods, as opposed to requiring piping evaluations by nonlinear analysis methods. This allowable stress limit is further supported by piping system testing programs, categorization of seismic loadings, dynamic versus static loadings and operating plant earthquake experience. Piping system testing programs have confirmed that piping systems are able to sustain much higher stresses than the Code specified Level 0 allowables without plastic collapse, leakage or loss of pressure-retention capability. These testings and recent studies have formed licensing support for proposed elimination of the primary stress requirement for seismic loading on piping. On the conservative side, the proposed stress limit of 2.0 Sy does not take credit for the dynamic aspect of the seismic loading or the dynamic strain rate effect 1-2

on S

  • The operating plant earthquake experience from a steam plant indicated that even for a conventional power plant without seismic supports, very little or no damage was observed under a severe earthquake (0.5 g). A detailed discussion justifying the proposed stress limit is presented in Section 3.0.

Section 4.0 presents a flow chart illustrating the application of the proposed strain and stress criteria for the SONGS-1 LTS seismic program.

Appendices A, B, and C have been included to provide a clearer perspective of the impact of applying these criteria at SONGS-1.

Appendix A summarizes the differences between the proposed LTS criteria and methodology versus the previously licensed Systematic Evaluation Program (SEP) criteria and methodology for SONGS-1.

Appendix B summarizes material properties for all applicable materials at SONGS-1, comparing SEP allowable stress versus LTS proposed allowable stress.

Finally, Appendix C provides a summary of piping system natural frequencies and peak spectra accelerations and frequencies for those systems analyzed by linear elastic stress methods during the SONGS-1 RTS program.

2.0 BASIS FOR STRAIN LIMITS 2.1 Code Case N-47 Code Case N-47 [2-2] addresses the design and analysis of. Class 1 components at elevated temperatures. Elevated temperatures are defined as temperatures exceeding those covered by the rules and stress limits of ASME Subsection NB and the tables in Appendix I. At these high tempera tures, creep effects may become significant and the stress criteria are not appropriate. The rules of the Code Case guard against deformation related failures, such as:

o Creep rupture from long term loadings o

Creep fatigue failure o

Loss of function due to excessive deformation o

Gross distortion due to incremental collapse and racheting.

Appendix T of Code Case N-47, "Rules for Strain, Deformation, and Fatigue Limits at Elevated Temperatures" provides the following strain limits for Service Levels A, B and C loadings (corresponding to Normal, Upset and Emergency conditions, respectively):

1 percent Averaged through thickness (membrane) 2 percent Surface strain due to a linearized distribution through the thickness (membrane plus bending) 5 percent Local strain at any point.

Although the strain criteria in the Code Case were developed for use at elevated temperatures, where stress criteria cannot be applied, the strain criteria can also be applied to the dynamic analysis of components at lower temperatures. In fact, Rodabaugh [2-3] refers to.the Code Case N-47 strain limits in a discussion of Code Stress limits and inelastic analyses, including seismic analyses. In addition, strain limits for Service Level D (Faulted condition) loadings are not specified in Code Case N-47. The use of strain limits specified for Service Levels A, B and C loadings for the 0.67g Modified Housner Design Spectrum loading (Faulted condition) is conservative.

The strain limits presented provide assurance of the structural integrity of the piping and limit gross distortion (which is the phenomenon addressed in the seismic evaluation).

The limits presented in the Code Case were developed for inelastic analysis methods, since elevated temperature conditions often result in stresses above the elastic range.

Therefore, the strain limits which are developed in the Code Case, to address creep and elevated temperature effects are applicable for use in the seismic evaluation for SONGS-1.

The classification of stress intensities, and therefore the classifica tion of strains, is given in Tables 2-1 and 2-2 which are taken from Table-3217-2 of Code Case N-47 and Table NB-3217-2 of Section III, Subsection NB, respectively. A review of the tables shows that only 2-1

internal pressure causes general membrane (Pm) stresses and strains.

Thus, the 1 percent limit is only applied to the portion of the strain caused by internal pressure. Stresses and strains due to mechanical loads, including gravity and seismic loading, are classified as local membrane (PL) plus bending (Pb).

Therefore, the 2 percent strain limit for local membrane plus bending is applicable to seismic loading.

2.2 Component Testing Programs Numerous experimental studies have been carried out to investigate the behavior of critical components of piping systems. Results of three studies are described below in detail.

The first study by Imazu [2-4]

evaluated five stainless steel elbows under static loads. In the second study, Greenstreet [2-5] tested four stainless steel elbows statically.

In the third study, Teidoguchi [2-6] performed static and dynamic tests on stainless steel elbows.

Imazu Test Results Imazu performed plastic instability and buckling tests on five thin-walled stainless steel elbows. The elbows were 12 inch Schedule 10S and 20S long radius elbows made from Type 304 stainless steel.

The elbows were loaded statically in both in-plane and out-of-plane directions to, and past, the plastic instability point using displacement controlled techniques.

The results from these tests demonstrate that strains of up to 2 percent resulted in an ovality of the cross-section which corresponds to a flow area reduction of five percent. This five percent flow area reduction occurs only at a local point in the piping system and would have an insignificant overall effect on pipe rated flow.

It should be noted that these tests were performed on thin-walled, non-pressurized elbows at elevated temperatures (6000C).

For SONGS-1, stainless steel elbows are thicker, are pressurized, and are at much lower temperatures than those tested by Imazu. Therefore, the Imazu elbow test results represent a conservative bounding case for SONGS-1 application.

Greenstreet Test Results Greenstreet determined the plastic deflection responses of four 6-inch Schedule 40S and 80S commercial stainless steel (SA312-304L) elbows subjected to external static in-plane bending moment without the application of internal pressure. Tests were carried out to the maximum capacity of the testing apparatus which provided the limitations to the test's recorded response. In all the cases, there was no indication of failure or gross structural instability.

Ibrahim and Kitz [2-7]

demonstrated that these results correspond to elastically calculated piping stresses well beyond the Code Level D limits.

Teidoguchi Test Results The experimental study by Teidoguchi included extensive testing to justify the functional capability of Class 1 stainless steel elbows.

Static and dynamic tests were performed at room temperature. The static tests were performed with an external force large enough to produce a predominantly plastic response. The load deflection curves reported from the study indicated that the tests were conducted up to a strain level of 2 percent (which corresponds to ten.times the proportional limit). At these strain levels, geometric and structural stability of the components were maintained.

The dynamic tests reported for elbow piping components were for a 3 inch (L.R.) lightwall elbow welded to a 3 inch Schedule 40 pipe. The material of these elbows was SUS27TP, which is equivalent to the ASME stainless steel TP-304. The piping system was supported on a shaker table and subjected to harmonic excitation. The amplitude of the dynamic moments and the number of cycles till leakage were recorded. Corresponding piping stresses were calculated, ranging from a maximum value of 6.2 to a minimum value of 2.9 times the ASME Class 1 Level D limits. These ratios were derived by applying the Class 1 stress indices approach and the 3.0 Sm allowable, which is approximately equal to 2.0 Sy. The moments derived from tests were not adjusted for the difference in the specimen material strength and that specified in the Code. The results also showed that internal pressure improves the functional capability of the designed elbows under dynamic loading.

2.3 Stress-Strain Curves Stainless steel piping materials are significantly more ductile than carbon steel materials and thus have a significantly greater inherent reserve capacity. This can be shown from the comparison of typical mechanical properties at room temperature as follows [2-8].

Figures 2-1 and 2-2 are engineering stress-strain curves for mild carbon steel (0.25 carbon) and stainless steel (Type 304), respectively, from

[2-9] and [2-10]. At the tensile (or ultimate) strength, carbon steel exhibits approximately 25% strain while stainless steel exhibits approximately 70% strain.

All of the above results support the acceptability of a strain limit of 2 percent for stainless steel materials. This allowable limit. will ensure structural integrity as well as no loss of functionality due to significant flow area reduction.

3.0 BASIS FOR STRESS LIMITS 3.1 Nonlinear Analysis The purpose of the nonlinear analyses performed for SONGS-1 [2-1] was to show that typical piping systems remain functional (i.e., below the 1 and 2% strain limits) at an elastically calculated intensified stress limit of 2.0 S y* The load combination considered in the analysis was pressure, gravity and seismic inertia.

Numerous hot safe-shutdown piping systems were reviewed and two representative piping systems (AC-19 and MW-01) were selected for the study. The two systems provided a good representation of the various piping components, materials, and system types represented in the plant.

Both carbon and stainless steel materials were considered, as well as piping components of different sizes and flexibilities. Both systems have typical run configurations with a mix of various component types.

Although the design response spectra did not produce seismic stress levels in the system at the functionality stress limit of 2.0 S. input motions were increased to produce the desired maximum elastic stress in the most highly stressed portion of the system. (The elastic stresses are calculated based on the ASME Class 2/3 stress intensification factor approach.)

Elastic analyses were performed for gravity and seismic inertia to provide results for comparison with the results from nonlinear analyses.

This ensures proper development and accuracy of the nonlinear analysis model.

To maintain functionality, (i.e., to deliver the rated flow) the elbow, tee and straight pipe components must not distort excessively (ovalization). The ANSYS computer program was used for the nonlinear analyses. Models were developed with elbow and tee components which closely matched experimentally verified behavior (see attached nonlinear analysis models, Figures 3-1 and 3-2).

The time history loading used to develop the elastically calculated stress of 2.0 S (the study.used limits of 2.0 S for carbon steel and 2.2 S for stainless steel) at critical components (elbow for both systems was input for the nonlinear analysis. The strains calculated from the nonlinear analysis were correlated with the stresses calculated from the elastic analyses with the same input. As shown in the attached Tables, 3-1 and 3-2, the strains were less than 1 percent for carbon steel and less than or equal to 2 percent for stainless steel.

These strain levels were used to compute maximum ovalization. At these strain levels, maximum ovalization and flow rate reductions were considered to be acceptable (less than 5 percent flow area reduction).

A major conservatism in the nonlinear analyses was the material law assumed for the ANSYS model.

The moment-deflection curves used on the ANSYS model match closely with experimental data; thus, the proper global response was assured. Additionally, by matching the moment-deflection curves, a conservative moment-strain relationship was produced. This can be seen by reviewing the attached Figures, 3-3 and 3-4. For example, a 3-1

moment of 200 in-kips produces deflections of approximately 0.35 inches in both the ANSYS and experimental studies (Figure 3-3).

However, this same moment produced experimental strains of 0.16 percent while the ANSYS model predicted 0.45 percent (Figure 3-4).

Thus, the ANSYS-calculated strains are greater than those reported in experimental studies.

Other conservatisms in the analysis are as follows:

o Code-specified minimum material strengths were used in the analyses. Actual material strengths are greater than Code-specified minimums.

o Nominal component thicknesses were used on the analysis. Component thicknesses are normally greater than nominal values. This increases the strength and moment-carrying capacity of the components.

o Strain rate effects which enhance yield strength are neglected.

o Pressure effects increase collapse moments of components. These effects were neglected in the analysis.

In summary, this study conclusively demonstrates that an elastic piping stress limit of 2.0 Sy for carbon and stainless steel piping systems provides assurance that the piping systems will still perform their function. This criterion allows local yielding in components such that load redistribution reduces maximum moments and stresses, yet provides limits on the extent of yielding such that functionality of the system is maintained.

Similar nonlinear analyses have also been performed at Commonwealth Edison's Dresden and Quad Cities Plants to successfully license the 2.0 Sy stress limit as part of their IE Bulletin 79-14 program [3-1].

3.2 Piping System Testing Programs The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Electric Power Research Institute have jointly sponsored a piping research program involving the design, analysis, fabrication, erection, and dynamic testing of prototypical piping systems [3-2]. One objective of this program was to stimulate recognition of safety margins implicit in ASME B&PV Code rules for Classes 2 and 3 piping by demonstrating the existence of large design margins in piping and support systems when subject to seismic loads much greater than those acceptable according to the ASME Code.

Results from this effort and other similar experimental programs [3-3, 3-4 and 3-5] have confirmed that piping systems are able to sustain extreme dynamic loads without plastic collapse, leakage, or loss of pressure-retention capability. Results of these programs demonstrate that piping systems have large inherent reserve margins under seismic loading.

These programs have generated proposed changes to the ASME Code requirements that would remove seismic loading from a primary stress check in Code Equation 9 [3-6] (see Section 3.3 for detail discussions).

Below, we briefly discuss two of the recent testing programs for piping systems, performed by ANCO [3-2]. The first system consists of a 70 ft.

long, six-inch Schedule 40 pipe run. The piping was subjected to accelerations as high as 15g and response accelerations over 50g were measured. The second system consists of a 20 ft. long, four-inch, Schedule 40 pipe run. Accelerations as high as 14g were input and response accelerations greater than 21g were measured.

a) 70 ft. Long, 6-inch Diameter, Schedule 40 Piping System The first piping system tested was a single run of A106 B carbon steel about 70 ft. long. It is shown in Figure 3-5. Six-inch, Schedule 40 and eight-inch, Schedule 40 piping was employed, with the larger diameter pipe located at the ends of the pipe run. The 6-in. and 8-in. pipe were joined together using standard 6 x 8 reducers. The pipe elbows were 90* long radius elbows. The piping was designed following ASME Code rules.

Comparison of analytical and test frequencies of this piping system is shown in Table 3-3. The first natural frequency is 4.18 and 4.62 Hz from analysis and test, respectively.

Multiple tests were conducted with various magnitudes of dynamic input and support configations. The piping was pressurized to 1150 psig and driven with a 20 second input earthquake time history.

Selected test results are shown in the table below:

    • Maximum Experimental Stress/S The maximum experimental stresses were calculated, using the stress intensification factor approach of the ASME Code for Class 2 piping (1980 Edition).

From this table, it is observed that at just below Level 0 Stress (Test Case 1), the maximum measured strain in the piping was 0.06 percent. The maximum input acceleration for this case was 2.24g. Test Case 6 shows that at a stress level corresponding to 2 times Level D (or 2.13 Sy for the pipe material) the maximum measured strain was 0.13 percent. The maximum input acceleration was 5.5g for this test case. Test Case 8 shows that for a stress level corresponding to 2.39 Sy, the maximum measured strain in the piping was only 0.14 percent.

These experimental results show that low strains are obtained at stress levels greater than 2.0 S Y. Thus, a stress limit criteria of 2.0 S y is conservative.

To show the severity of the input for a particular test case, the input response spectrum for Test Case 6 is compared in Figure 3-6 to the input required to just achieve the Level D stress condition in the piping system of Test Case 1. This test was about a factor of four greater than the input necessary to match the Level 0 stress limits in the frequency region of interest for the first piping system. That is, the piping system successfully withstood an earthquake input about four times greater than the Code design rules would indicate to be acceptable. The piping system, in fact, withstood several more severe dynamic tests with no gross distortion or loss of pressure retaining capacity.

b) 20 ft. Long, 4-inch Diameter, Schedule 40 Piping System The second piping system consisted of a prototypical nuclear power plant piping segment which was tested by ANCO Engineers Inc., under EPRI sponsorship, to determine its ultimate dynamic load capacity.

The selected piping was a 20-foot run of 4-inch, Schedule 40 ferretic material with two elbows and three supports. An earthquake-like dynamic input was specified at each one of these supports. The piping tested is shown in Figure 3-7.

3-10

The piping run was designed in accordance with ASME Code Class 2 rules and was dynamically excited to varying response levels while under the Code maximum allowable internal pressure.

Figure 3-8 shows the horizontal dynamic spectra imposed on the piping. Also shown in Figure 3-8, for comparison purposes, is an SSE response spectra for a typical nuclear power plant. As may be seen, the test spectra input to the piping is seven to eleven times the SSE spectra in the frequency range of importance to the tested piping system (approximately 6 to 13 Hz.).

That is, the imposed horizontal seismic-like input to the piping was roughly an order of magnitude greater than that typically used in the design of nuclear power piping.

The first and second test frequencies of this piping system are 6 and 13 Hz, respectively.

Figure 3-9 is a comparison of the actual input test spectra with a spectra which produced stresses in the piping system equal to Code allowable (2.4 Sh). It is observed that the dynamic input to the test resulted in elastically calculated stressed, using the stress intensification factor approach of the ASME Code for Class 2 Piping (1980 Edition) equivalent to 4.0 S.

This stress level corres ponds to 3.3 times the Code allowa le stress 2.4 Sh.

At stress level of 4.0 S, no leakage occurred. Permanent deformations in several region of the piping were observed, but there was no plastic collapse or loss of structural integrity in the pressurized piping, even with the extreme seismic input.

Based on the test data reported and strain levels achieved the 2.0 S stress limit represents a conservative, yet realistic criteria for piping systems at SONGS-1.

3.3 Categorization of Seismic Loadings In current ASME Code rules, seismic inertia stress is categorized as the primary stress and evaluated in Code Equation 9 as follows:

Class 1 piping:

PDD (Level D)

B

_2+8

-o i

3m(LvlD 1 2t 221 Class 2/3 piping:

PDo + 0.75 i (Ma + MB) h 2 4 Sh (Level D) 4t Z

The 1980 edition of the Code for Class 1, 2 and 3 piping is used for the above equations and all terms are defined in the Code.

Studies have been performed, or are in progress, to investigate the licensing support for the elimination of the primary stress requirement for seismic loading on piping. E.C. Rodabaugh stated in [3-6] that because of the limited energy input of earthquakes to piping systems, it may be that earthquakes will not produce gross plastic deformation of piping systems. The EPRI/ANCO piping tests [3-3] also suggested that the real failure mechanism for earthquakes is not the formation of primary collapse mechanisms, but is fatigue-related. A logical consequence of these studies is to remove moments due to earthquakes from Code Equation 9 and perform a separate low cycle fatigue evaluation. For example, E.C.

Rodabaugh recommended in [3-6] that the allowable faulted stress ranges due to SSE should be up to 4.5 Sm for carbon steel and 7.9 Sm for stainless steel.

If seismic inertia stress is categorized as the non-primary stress, the 2.0 S allowable for pressure, gravity plus inertia loadings represents a coervative primary stress limit because SSE inertia is the dominant loading of the three.

3.4 Dynamic versus Static Loadings Current ASME Code elastic analysis stress response acceptance criteria do not differentiate between dynamic (such as seismic) and static loading events. It is well known that structures can withstand much greater loads if the loads are dynamic in nature; i.e., cycled on and off the structure. Since the ASME Code is based entirely upon the static strength of components, there is a seismic reserve margin associated with neglecting the dynamic aspects of the loading. Reference [3-7] describes one major study to quantify this margin in the particular case of nuclear power plant piping systems. The results show that a dynamic load must be, on the average, 1.52 times a static load in order to produce the same stress and strain levels that are currently allowed by the ASME Code for Service Load D conditions (i.e., loads which include the design basis earthquake).

3-18

Also, materials testing procedures are based upon the-pseudo-static application of loads (i.e., the loads are applied to the specimen at a very slow rate). It is well known that higher rates of loading result in an increase in the yield stress of the material - a phenomenon termed the dynamic strain-rate effect. Since the ASME Code considers both static and dynamic loadings, the specified minimum yield stresses are based upon the lower values appropriate for static cases. Reference [3-8] shows that the strain rate effects associated with seismic loading would result in a minimum increase in material yield strength of 11 percent. Figure 3-10 shows the effect of strain rate on yield streqgth of mild steel

[3-9]. For example, at a strain rate of 2.5 x 10-in/in/second (which corresponds to the piping fundamental natural frequency of 6 H ), the increase in yield strength over the static yield strength is a~out 15 percent.

In establishing the allowable stress limit 2.0 S for the Code.Equation 9, the benefit associated with the dynamic aspects of the seismic loading, as well as the dynamic strain-rate effect is conservatively.

3.5 Operating Plant Earthquake Experience The El Centro Steam Plant was inspected by an NRC team following the October 15, 1979 Imperial Valley Earthquake [3-10]. The inspection was of interest to the NRC because the plant is similar to older operating nuclear power plants in both design and types of equipment installed.

The NRC team observed only minor damage to the plant's structural and mechanical systems despite the estimated O.5g peak horizontal ground acceleration produced at the site.

The large magnitude earthquake had its epicenter on the Imperial Fault, approximately 15 miles from the plant. When the earthquake occurred, Units 3 and 4 of the four-unit nonnuclear plant were operating. The operating units tripped off-line when the station's power was lost.

Unit 3 was restored to service within 15 minutes after the main shock. Unit 4 was restored to service within 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />.

The plant's original design criteria specified a static lateral load equivalent to 20 percent of the dead and live loads. Following the earthquake, the NRC engaged LLNL to analyze Unit 4 [3-11]. To accurately predict the actual response of the Plant from the earthquake, the LLNL study used realistic assumptions for the analysis, thus eliminating many of the conservatisms that are used in the analysis of nuclear power plants. For example, in the soil-structure interaction analysis, soil damping ratios as high as 100 percent of critical were used. The use of these highly damped soil springs provided a reasonable estimation of the forces induced in the structure as evidenced by the close relationship of the observed to the predicted base shears. It should be noted that for SONGS-1, the soil damping was limited to a maximum of 20 percent of critical, when in fact, experimental testing supported the use of damping as high as 50 percent of critical. It is reasonable to conclude that as a result of limiting the soil damping alone, we are severely overestimating the response of SONGS-1 structures, piping and equipment.

The LLNL study concluded that the forces experienced by the plant equipment were on the order of 2 to 9 times greater than the O.2g specified design load. The reserve seismic capacity in-the plant equipment is then at least of the order of 100 percent. Note that because of the highly damped soil properties used in the SSI analysis, the forces calculated from analysis represent a low estimate, if compared with the forces that would be obtained using more conservative assumptions, as was done for SONGS-1.

The reserve margin would be even greater if analysis techniques such as used for SONGS-1 were used.

The above conclusion was confirmed by observations of the actual response of piping systems at the plant. Post-earthquake inspection indicated that no high-temperature or high-pressure piping failed during the earthquake. Piping failures were observed only.in two lines, at locations that had been either weld-repaired or had been excessively corroded.

3-21

We can conclude that operating nuclear power plant structures, equipment and piping, such as those in SONGS-1, have considerable seismic reserve margins capable of sustaining an earthquake which far exceeds its nominal design capacity.

3-22

4.0 APPLICATION PROCEDURE The application procedure of the two criteria for LTS large-bore piping qualification can be summarized as follows:

Step 1 Perform piping analysis using piping computer code SUPERPIPE and check the ASME NC/ND-3600 Equation 9 (Level D) stresses against the allowable 2.0 Sy (the stress criterion). Other Code equations will also be checked against appropriate Code allowables. If piping is qualified, then go to step 2. If piping is not qualified, add more supports.

Step 2 Perform support evaluations using the NRC approved support criteria and methodology for the LTS. If supports are not qualified, then perform piping reanalysis without these failed supports, using either the stress criterion (go back to Step 1) or the strain criterion (go to Step 3).

The strain criterion will be used only if there is a single support failure. The definition of a single support failure is that at least two neighboring supports in the same restraint direction as the failed support, and on both upstream and downstream sides are qualified.

Step 3 Perform energy balance hand calculation using the strain criterion. If piping is not qualified, add more supports. A detailed discussion of the energy balance method is summarized in a separate report to the NRC titled "Energy Balance Method for Piping Systems."

This procedure is illustrated in a flow chart in Figure 4-1.

.59 The apparent anomaly occurring in the table above, in which 2.0 S is actually less than 2.4 Sh for two materials, is easily explained y considering the basis of the allowable stress Sh.

As defined in Appendix III, Article 111-3000 of the ASME Code, Sh is defined as the lowest of:

Carbon Steel

1) 1/4 Su minimum (ambient temp.)
2) 1/4 Su (operating temp.)
3) 2/3 Sy minimum (ambient temp.)
4) 2/3 Sy (operating temp.)

Stainless Steel 1) 1/4 Su minimum (ambient temp.)

2) 1/4 Su (operating temp.)
3) 2/3 S minimum (ambient temp.)
4) 0.9, (operating temp.)

For SA 312 TP304 and SA 312 TP316, Sh is controlled by 1/4 Su at operating temperature and 0.9 S, at operating temperature, respectively. In these cases,.4 Sh is actually higher than 2.0 Sy as shown below:

For A312 TP304: Sh = 1/4 Su @ 5750F = 1/4 (63.5) = 15.88 ksi (Code uses 15.9 ksi) 2.4 Sh = 2.4 x 15.9 = 38.16 ksi Sy @ 5750F = 18.5 ksi 2 Sy = 2 x 18.5 = 37 ksi For SA312 TP316 Sy @ 570aF = 19.13 ksi Sh = 0.9 Sy @ 570'F = 0.9 x 19.13 =17.22 ksi (Code uses 17.3 ksi) 2.4 Sn = 2.4 x 17.3 = 41.52 ksi 2 Sy = 2 x 19.13 = 38.26 ksi B-1
