Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ABSTRACT ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page vii This report describes and provides results from the RLBLOCA analysis for the Millstone Unit 2 M51 fuel upgrade. The plant is a PWR Combustion Engineering 2x4-loop design with an analyzed thermal power of 2754 MWt (includes power calorimetric uncertainty) and dry atmospheric containment. The loops contain four RCPs, two U-tube steam generators and a pressurizer.

The analysis supports operation for Cycle 25 and beyond with AR EV A's 14x14 CE array with HTP'2 intermediate grids and a lower HMP'2 grid. The fuel assembly includes a Zirc-4 MONOBLOC'2 guide tube design, M5 fuel rod design using standard U02 fuel with 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% Gd20 3 and FUELGUARD'2 debris-resistant lower tie-plate design. The analysis performed is the Millstone Unit 2 plant-specific implementation of the AREVA's RLBLOCA EM in Reference 1 and the methodology amendments in References 2 and 3. The analysis results confirm that the 10 CFR 50.46(b), paragraphs (1) through (3), acceptance criteria (Reference 5) are met and serve as the basis for operation of the Millstone Unit 2 Power Station with Standard CE14 HTP fuel (advanced fuel geometry).

SUMMARY

ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 1 This report describes and provides results from the Realistic Large Break Loss of Coolant (RLBLOCA) for the Millstone Unit 2 M5 fuel upgrade. The plant is a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) Combustion Engineering (CE) 2x4-loop design. The parameter specification for this analysis is provided in Table 1. The analysis assumes full-power operation at 2754 MWt (includes power calorimetric uncertainty), a tube plugging level of 5.87 percent per steam generator, a peak linear heat generation rate (LHGR) of 15.1 kW/ft, and a radial peaking factor of 1.854 (includes uncertainty). The analysis supports operation with AREVA Standard CE14 HTP fuel (advanced fuel geometry) design using standard U02 fuel with 2, 4, 6, and 8 weight percent Gd203.

This analysis also addresses typical operational ranges or technical specification limits (whichever is applicable) with regard to pressurizer pressure and level; safety injection tank (SIT) pressure, temperature (containment temperature), and level; core inlet temperature; core flow; containment pressure and temperature; and refueling water storage tank temperature. The analysis explicitly analyzes fresh and once-burned fuel assemblies. The analysis also uses the Fuel Swelling, Rupture, and Relocation (FSRR) model to determine if cladding rupture occurs and evaluate the consequences of FSRR on the transient response.

The PCT of 1615°F occurred in a Fresh 4 weight percent Gd20 3 fuel rod with an assembly burnup of 18.4 GWd/mtU.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report 2.0 RLBLOCA ANALYSIS 2.1 Acceptance Criteria ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 3 The purpose of the analysis is to verify the adequacy of the Millstone Unit 2 Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) by demonstrating compliance with the following 10 CFR 50.46(b) criteria (Reference 5):

1.

The calculated maximum fuel element cladding temperature shall not exceed 2200°F.

2.

The calculated total oxidation of the cladding shall nowhere exceed 0.17 times the total cladding thickness before oxidation.

3.

The calculated total amount of hydrogen generated from the chemical reaction of the cladding with water or steam shall not exceed 0.01 times the hypothetical amount that would be generated if all of the metal in the cladding cylinders surrounding the fuel excluding the cladding surrounding the plenum volume were to react.

Note: Reference 4 states that the 17% value in the second acceptance criterion for MLO was based on the usage of the Baker-Just correlation. For present reviews on ECCS Evaluation Model (EM) applications, the NRG staff is imposing a limitation specifying that the equivalent cladding reacted (ECR) results calculated using the Cathcart-Pawel correlation are considered acceptable in conformance with 10 CFR 50.46(b)(2) if the ECR value is less than 13%. The limitation is addressed in Table 4.

2.2 Description of LBLOCA Event A Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident (LBLOCA) is initiated by a postulated rupture of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) primary piping. The most challenging break location is in the cold leg piping between the reactor coolant pump and the reactor vessel for the RCS loop. The plant is assumed to be operating normally at full power prior to the accident and the break is assumed to open instantaneously. A worst case single-failure is also assumed to occur during the accident. The single-failure for this analysis is the loss of one ECCS pumped injection train without the loss of containment spray.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Paqe4 The LBLOCA event is typically described in three phases: blowdown, refill, and reflood.

Following the initiation of the break, the blowdown phase is characterized by a sudden depressurization from operating pressure down to the saturation pressure of the hot leg fluid. For larger cold leg breaks, an immediate flow reversal and stagnation occurs in the core due to flow out the break, which causes the fuel rods to pass through critical heat flux (CHF), usually within 1 second following the break. Following this initial rapid depressurization, the RCS depressurizes at a more gradual rate. Reactor trip and emergency injection signals occur when either the low pressure setpoint or the containment high-pressure setpoint are reached. However, for LBLOCA, reactor trip and scram are essentially inconsequential, as reactor shutdown is accomplished by moderator feedback.

During blowdown, core cooling is supported by the natural evolution of the RCS flow pattern as driven by the break flow.

When the system pressure falls below the SIT pressure, flow from the SIT is injected into the cold legs ending the blowdown period and initiating the refill period. Once the system pressure falls below the respective shutoff heads of the safety injection systems and the system startup time delays are met, flow from the safety injection systems is injected into the RCS. While some of the ECCS flow bypasses the core and goes directly out of the break, the downcomer and lower plenum gradually refill until the mixture in the lower head and lower plenum regions reaches the bottom of the active core and_the __ reJlood_p_erio_d_begios~C_o_re_c_o_oling_is_s_upp_ode_d_by_tb_e_natural _______________ _

evolution of the RCS flow pattern as driven by the break flow and condensation on the emergency coolant being injected. Towards the end of the refill period, heat transfer from the fuel rods is relative low, steam cooling and rod-to-rod radiation being the primary mechanisms.

Once the lower plenum is refilled to the bottom of the fuel rod heated length, refill ends and the reflood phase begins. Substantial ECCS fluid is retained in the downcomer during refill. This provides the driving head to move coolant into the core.

As the mixture level moves up the core, steam is generated and liquid is entrained, providing cooling in the upper core regions. The two-phase mixture expands into the

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Pages upper plenum and some liquid may de-entrain and flow downward back into the cooler core regions. The remaining entrained liquid passes into the steam generators where it vaporizes, adding to the steam that must be discharged through the break and out of the system. The difficulty of venting steam is, in general, referred to as steam binding. It acts to impede core reflood rates. With the initiation of reflood, a quench front starts to progress up the core. With the advancement of the quench front, the cooling in the upper regions of the core increases, eventually arresting the rise in fuel rod surface temperatures. Later the core is quenched and a pool cooling process is established that can maintain the cladding temperature near saturation, so long as the ECCS makes up for the core boil off.

2.3 Description of Analytical Models The RLBLOCA methodology is documented in EMF-2103 Realistic Large Break LOCA

/

Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors (Reference 1) and supplemented in the RAI responses and Errata in References 2 and 3. The methodology follows the Code Scaling, Applicability and Uncertainty (CSAU) evaluation methodology (Reference 6) and the requirements of the Evaluation Model Development and Assessment Process (EMDAP) documented in Reference 7. The CSAU method outlines an approach for defining and qualifying a best-estimate thermal-hydraulic code and quantifies the uncertainties in a LOCA analysis.

The RLBLOCA methodology consists of the following computer codes:

COPERNIC for computation of the initial fuel stored energy, fission gas release, and the transient fuel-cladding gap conductance.

S-RELAP5 for the thermal-hydraulic system calculations (includes ICECON for containment response).

The governing two-fluid (plus non-condensable) model with conservation equations for mass, energy, and momentum transfer is used. The reactor core is modeled in S-RELAP5 with heat generation rates determined from reactor kinetics equations (point kinetics) with reactivity feedback, and with actinide and decay heat.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Licensing Report Page 6 The two-fluid formulation uses a separate set of conservation equations and constitutive relations for each phase. The effects of one phase on the other are accounted for by interfacial friction, and heat and mass transfer interaction terms in the equations. The conservation equations have the same form for each phase; only the constitutive relations and physical properties differ.

The modeling of plant components is performed by following guidelines developed to ensure accurate accounting for physical dimensions and that the dominant phenomena expected during the LBLOCA event are captured. The basic building blocks for modeling are hydraulic volumes for fluid paths and heat structures for heat transfer. In addition, special purpose components exist to represent specific components such as the Reactor Coolant Pumps (RCPs) or the steam generator (SG) separators. All geometries are modeled at the resolution necessary to best resolve the flow field and the phenomena being modeled within practical computational limitations.

The analysis considers blockage effects due to clad swelling and rupture as well as increased heat load due to fuel relocation in the ballooned region of the cladding in the prediction of the hot fuel rod PCT.

A typical calculation using S-RELAP5 begins with the establishment of a steady-state initial condition with all loops intact. The input parameters and initial conditions for this

measured data. Additionally, the COPERNIC code provides initial conditions for the S-RELAP5 fuel models. Specific parameters are discussed in Section 2.6.

Following the establishment of an acceptable steady-state condition, the transient -

calculation is initiated by introducing a break into one of the loops. The evolution of the transient through blowdown, refill, and reflood is computed continuously using S-RELAP5. Containment pressure is calculated by the ICECON module within S-RELAP5.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page?

A detailed assessment of the S-RELAP5 computer code was made through comparisons to experimental data. These assessments were used to develop quantitative estimates of the ability of the code to predict key physical phenomena in a PWR LBLOCA. The final step of the best-estimate methodology is to combine all the uncertainties related to' the code and plant parameters and estimate the first three criteria of 10 CFR 50.46 with a probability of at least 95 percent with 95 percent confidence. The steps taken to derive the uncertainty estimate are summarized below:

1.

Base Plant Input File Development First, base COPERNIC and S-RELAP5 input files for the plant (including the containment input file) are developed. The code input development guidelines documented in Appendix A of Reference 1, as amended by References 2 and 3, are applied to ensure that model nodalization is consistent with the model riodalization used in the code validation.

2.

Sampled Case Development The statistical approach requires that many "sampled" cases be created and processed. For every set of input created, each "key LOCA parameter".is randomly sampled over a range established through code* uncertainty

  • assessment or expected operating limits (provided* by plant technical specifications or data). Those parameters considered "key LOCA parameters" are listed in Table A-6 of 1, as amended by References 2 and 3. This list includes both parameters related to LOCA phenomena, based on the PIRT provided in Reference 1, and to plant operating parameters. The uncertainty ranges associated with each of the model parameters are provided in Table A-7 of

--Reference 1, as amendecroyReferences 2ana3.

3.

Determination of Adequacy of ECCS The RLBLOCA methodology uses a non-parametric statistical approach to determine that the. first three criteria of 10 CFR 50.46.. are met with.a probability higher than 95 percent with 95 percent confidence.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 M5 Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report 2.4 GDC-35 Limiting Condition Determination ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 8 GDC-35 requires that a system be designed to provide abundant core cooling with suitable redundancy such that the capability is maintained in either the loss of offsite power (LOOP) or the offsite power available (No-LOOP) condition.

2.5 Overall Statistical Compliance to Criteria 2.6 Plant Description and Summary of Analysis Parameters The plant analyzed is the Millstone Unit 2, CE designed PWR, which has 2x4-loop arrangement. There are two hot legs each with an U-tube steam generator and four cold legs each with a RCP. The RCS includes one Pressurizer connected to a hot leg. The ECCS comprises four SITs, one per loop/cold leg, and one full train of Low Pressure Safety Injection (LPSI) and High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) (after applying the single failure assumption). The HPSI and LPSI feed into common headers (cross connected) that are connected to the SIT lines. The RLBLOCA transients are of

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 9 sufficiently short duration that the switchover to sump cooling water for ECCS pumped injection does not need to be considered.

The S-RELAP5 model explicitly describes the RCS, reactor vessel, pressurizer, and ECCS. The ECCS includes a SIT path and a LPSl/HPSI path per RCS loop. The HPSI and LPSI feed into a common header that connects to each cold leg pipe downstream of the RCP discharge. The ECCS pumped injection is modeled as a table of flow versus backpressure. This model also describes the secondary-side steam generator that is instantaneously isolated (closed main steam isolation valve and feedwater trip) at the time of the break. The analysis includes AREVA fuel with M5 cladding and utilizes the COPERNIC code for fuel calculations within S-RELAP5. The primary and secondary coolant systems for Millstone Unit 2 were nodalized consistent with code input guidelines in Appendix A of Reference 1, and as amended by References 2 and 3.

As described in Appendix A of Reference 1, as amended by References 2 and 3, many parameters associated with LBLOCA phenomenological uncertai'nties and plant operation ranges are sampled. A summary of those parameters sampled is given in Table A-6 of Reference 1, as amended. by References 2 and 3. The LBLOCA phenomenological uncertainties are provided in Table A-7 of Reference 1, as amended by References 2 and 3. Values for process or operational parameters, including ranges of sampled process parameters, and fuel design parameters used in this analysis are given in Table 1. Table 2 presents a summary of the uncertainties used in the analysis.

Two parameters (refueling water storage tank temperature and diesel start time) are set

.at conservative bounding values for all calculations. The passive heat sinks and material properties used in the containment input model are provided in Table 3.

2. 7 SE Limitations The RLBLOCA analysis for Millstone Unit 2 presented herein is consistent with the submitted RLBLOCA methodology documented in EMF-2103, Revision 3 (Reference 1) and as supplemented in the RAI responses and Errata in References 2 and 3. The

The fraction of total hydrogen generated was not directly calculated; however, it is conservatively bounded by the calculated total core wide percent oxidation, which is well below the 1 percent limit.

This analysis assumes a full core of AREVA Standard CE14 HTP fuel design which incorporates M5 clad fuel rod design among other features. However, at the time of the application of this analysis, the Millstone Unit 2 core will be a mixed core of AREVA Standard CE14 HTP fuel design and the resident fuel design which is a CE 14x14 HTP

The differences are such that thermal hydraulic performance is not impacted and modeling the core as a full core of M5 is acceptable and no penalty is required for this analysis.

The sequence of event times for the demonstration case is provided in Table 7. The heat transfer parameter ranges for the demonstration case are provided in Table 8. [

The analysis plots for the case set are shown in Figure 1 through Figure 5. Figure 1 shows linear scatter plots of the key parameters sampled for all cases. Parameter labels appear to the left of each individual plot. These figures illustrate the parameter ranges used in the analysis. Visual examination of the linear scatter plots demonstrates that the spread and coverage of all of the values used is appropriate and within the uncertainty ranges listed in Table 2. Appendix A provides a listing of all the sampled input values for each case. Key results such as the PCT and event timings are also listed for the case set.

Figure 2 and Figure 3 show PCT scatter plots versus the time of PCT and versus break size, respectively. The scatter plots for the maximum loca.1 oxidation and total core-wide oxidation are shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, respectively.

The first cluster shows PCT timings of less than 15 seconds (blowdown period); the second cluster shows PCT timings between 15 seconds and 50 seconds (early reflood period). Slowdown PCT cases are dominated by rapid RCS depressurization anc;I stored energy content. Early reflood PCT cases are dominated by decay heat removal capacity, which is highly dependent on SIT liquid volume and pressure setpoint. As shown in Figure 3, there is a strong correlation of PCT to break size. From all sampled parameters, the break size is a dominant effect in PCT because of its high influence in the rate of primary depressurization. As such, the high PCT clusters correlate with the larger end of the break sizes. In general, for this plant design, larger breaks peak at either the blowdown phase or the early reflood

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 M5 Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Licensing Report Page 13 phase of the transient depending on the influence of various phenomena such as blowdown flow reversal/stagnation, ECCS bypass, and steam binding. Large SITs with low pressure setpoints tend towards delayed injection which results in less ECCS bypass. Therefore, the late reflood PCT cases (> 50 seconds, Figure 2) are typically smaller break sizes with slower depressurizations and lower PCTs. An exception to that is the case inFigure 2 with a late reflood peak (-157 seconds) and relatively high PCT

(>1500°F). This case falls in the larger end of the break sizes (-4.0 ft2/side). However, it is characterized by a combination of sampling parameters leading to an earlier SIT depletion and a relatively slower reflood rate than the surrounding break size cases.

The demonstration case is a blowdown peak case with a PCT timing of 7.4 seconds.

Figure 6 through Figure 17 show key parameters from the S-RELAP5 calculations for the demonstration case. The transient progression for the demonstration case follows that described in Section 2.2.

Figure 4 shows a general increasing trend of MLO with PCT. Since the MLO includes the pre-transient oxidation, the MLO is not only a function of cladding temperature but of time in cycle (burnup), which explains the scatter of the points. A stronger correlation of the CWO to PCT is demonstrated in Figure 5 as higher PCT cases would have a higher oxidation throughout the core.

1 This EM was specifically reviewed, in accordance with This analysis applies only to statements in the L TR, to determine whether EMF-the acceptance criteria set 2103P, Revision 3, is an acceptable EM for determining forth in 10 CFR S0.46(b),

whether plant-specific results comply with the paragraphs (1) through (3).

acceptance criteria set forth in 1 O CFR S0.46(b),

paragraphs (1) through (3). The vendor did not request, and the NRC staff did not consider, whether this EM would be considered applicable if used to determine whether the requirements of 10 CFR S0.46(b)(4),

regarding coolable geometry, or (b)(S), regarding long-term core cooling, are satisfied. Thus, this approval does not apply to the use of SRELAPS-based methods of evaluating the effects of grid deformation due to seismic or LOCA blowdown loads, or for evaluating the effects of reactor coolant system boric acid transport. Such evaluations would be considered separate methods.

The response to RAI 15 indicates that the fuel pellet relocation packing factor is derived from currently available data. Should new data become available to suggest that fuel pellet fragmentation behavior is other than that suggested by the currently available database, the NRG may request the vendor to update its model to reflect such new data.

8 The regulatory limit contained in 1 O CFR 50.46(b)(2),

requiring cladding oxidation not to exceed 17-percent of the initial cladding thickness prior to oxidation, is based on the use of the Baker-Just oxidation correlation. To account for the use of the Cathc:art-Pawel correlation, this limit shall be reduced to 13 percent, inclusive of pre-transient oxide layer thickness.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ABSTRACT ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page vii This report describes and provides results from the RLBLOCA analysis for the Millstone Unit 2 M51 fuel upgrade. The plant is a PWR Combustion Engineering 2x4-loop design with an analyzed thermal power of 2754 MWt (includes power calorimetric uncertainty) and dry atmospheric containment. The loops contain four RCPs, two U-tube steam generators and a pressurizer.

The analysis supports operation for Cycle 25 and beyond with AR EV A's 14x14 CE array with HTP'2 intermediate grids and a lower HMP'2 grid. The fuel assembly includes a Zirc-4 MONOBLOC'2 guide tube design, M5 fuel rod design using standard U02 fuel with 2%, 4%, 6%, and 8% Gd20 3 and FUELGUARD'2 debris-resistant lower tie-plate design. The analysis performed is the Millstone Unit 2 plant-specific implementation of the AREVA's RLBLOCA EM in Reference 1 and the methodology amendments in References 2 and 3. The analysis results confirm that the 10 CFR 50.46(b), paragraphs (1) through (3), acceptance criteria (Reference 5) are met and serve as the basis for operation of the Millstone Unit 2 Power Station with Standard CE14 HTP fuel (advanced fuel geometry).

SUMMARY

ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 1 This report describes and provides results from the Realistic Large Break Loss of Coolant (RLBLOCA) for the Millstone Unit 2 M5 fuel upgrade. The plant is a Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) Combustion Engineering (CE) 2x4-loop design. The parameter specification for this analysis is provided in Table 1. The analysis assumes full-power operation at 2754 MWt (includes power calorimetric uncertainty), a tube plugging level of 5.87 percent per steam generator, a peak linear heat generation rate (LHGR) of 15.1 kW/ft, and a radial peaking factor of 1.854 (includes uncertainty). The analysis supports operation with AREVA Standard CE14 HTP fuel (advanced fuel geometry) design using standard U02 fuel with 2, 4, 6, and 8 weight percent Gd203.

This analysis also addresses typical operational ranges or technical specification limits (whichever is applicable) with regard to pressurizer pressure and level; safety injection tank (SIT) pressure, temperature (containment temperature), and level; core inlet temperature; core flow; containment pressure and temperature; and refueling water storage tank temperature. The analysis explicitly analyzes fresh and once-burned fuel assemblies. The analysis also uses the Fuel Swelling, Rupture, and Relocation (FSRR) model to determine if cladding rupture occurs and evaluate the consequences of FSRR on the transient response.

The PCT of 1615°F occurred in a Fresh 4 weight percent Gd20 3 fuel rod with an assembly burnup of 18.4 GWd/mtU.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report 2.0 RLBLOCA ANALYSIS 2.1 Acceptance Criteria ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 3 The purpose of the analysis is to verify the adequacy of the Millstone Unit 2 Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) by demonstrating compliance with the following 10 CFR 50.46(b) criteria (Reference 5):

1.

The calculated maximum fuel element cladding temperature shall not exceed 2200°F.

2.

The calculated total oxidation of the cladding shall nowhere exceed 0.17 times the total cladding thickness before oxidation.

3.

The calculated total amount of hydrogen generated from the chemical reaction of the cladding with water or steam shall not exceed 0.01 times the hypothetical amount that would be generated if all of the metal in the cladding cylinders surrounding the fuel excluding the cladding surrounding the plenum volume were to react.

Note: Reference 4 states that the 17% value in the second acceptance criterion for MLO was based on the usage of the Baker-Just correlation. For present reviews on ECCS Evaluation Model (EM) applications, the NRG staff is imposing a limitation specifying that the equivalent cladding reacted (ECR) results calculated using the Cathcart-Pawel correlation are considered acceptable in conformance with 10 CFR 50.46(b)(2) if the ECR value is less than 13%. The limitation is addressed in Table 4.

2.2 Description of LBLOCA Event A Large Break Loss of Coolant Accident (LBLOCA) is initiated by a postulated rupture of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) primary piping. The most challenging break location is in the cold leg piping between the reactor coolant pump and the reactor vessel for the RCS loop. The plant is assumed to be operating normally at full power prior to the accident and the break is assumed to open instantaneously. A worst case single-failure is also assumed to occur during the accident. The single-failure for this analysis is the loss of one ECCS pumped injection train without the loss of containment spray.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Paqe4 The LBLOCA event is typically described in three phases: blowdown, refill, and reflood.

Following the initiation of the break, the blowdown phase is characterized by a sudden depressurization from operating pressure down to the saturation pressure of the hot leg fluid. For larger cold leg breaks, an immediate flow reversal and stagnation occurs in the core due to flow out the break, which causes the fuel rods to pass through critical heat flux (CHF), usually within 1 second following the break. Following this initial rapid depressurization, the RCS depressurizes at a more gradual rate. Reactor trip and emergency injection signals occur when either the low pressure setpoint or the containment high-pressure setpoint are reached. However, for LBLOCA, reactor trip and scram are essentially inconsequential, as reactor shutdown is accomplished by moderator feedback.

During blowdown, core cooling is supported by the natural evolution of the RCS flow pattern as driven by the break flow.

When the system pressure falls below the SIT pressure, flow from the SIT is injected into the cold legs ending the blowdown period and initiating the refill period. Once the system pressure falls below the respective shutoff heads of the safety injection systems and the system startup time delays are met, flow from the safety injection systems is injected into the RCS. While some of the ECCS flow bypasses the core and goes directly out of the break, the downcomer and lower plenum gradually refill until the mixture in the lower head and lower plenum regions reaches the bottom of the active core and_the __ reJlood_p_erio_d_begios~C_o_re_c_o_oling_is_s_upp_ode_d_by_tb_e_natural _______________ _

evolution of the RCS flow pattern as driven by the break flow and condensation on the emergency coolant being injected. Towards the end of the refill period, heat transfer from the fuel rods is relative low, steam cooling and rod-to-rod radiation being the primary mechanisms.

Once the lower plenum is refilled to the bottom of the fuel rod heated length, refill ends and the reflood phase begins. Substantial ECCS fluid is retained in the downcomer during refill. This provides the driving head to move coolant into the core.

As the mixture level moves up the core, steam is generated and liquid is entrained, providing cooling in the upper core regions. The two-phase mixture expands into the

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Pages upper plenum and some liquid may de-entrain and flow downward back into the cooler core regions. The remaining entrained liquid passes into the steam generators where it vaporizes, adding to the steam that must be discharged through the break and out of the system. The difficulty of venting steam is, in general, referred to as steam binding. It acts to impede core reflood rates. With the initiation of reflood, a quench front starts to progress up the core. With the advancement of the quench front, the cooling in the upper regions of the core increases, eventually arresting the rise in fuel rod surface temperatures. Later the core is quenched and a pool cooling process is established that can maintain the cladding temperature near saturation, so long as the ECCS makes up for the core boil off.

2.3 Description of Analytical Models The RLBLOCA methodology is documented in EMF-2103 Realistic Large Break LOCA

/

Methodology for Pressurized Water Reactors (Reference 1) and supplemented in the RAI responses and Errata in References 2 and 3. The methodology follows the Code Scaling, Applicability and Uncertainty (CSAU) evaluation methodology (Reference 6) and the requirements of the Evaluation Model Development and Assessment Process (EMDAP) documented in Reference 7. The CSAU method outlines an approach for defining and qualifying a best-estimate thermal-hydraulic code and quantifies the uncertainties in a LOCA analysis.

The RLBLOCA methodology consists of the following computer codes:

COPERNIC for computation of the initial fuel stored energy, fission gas release, and the transient fuel-cladding gap conductance.

S-RELAP5 for the thermal-hydraulic system calculations (includes ICECON for containment response).

The governing two-fluid (plus non-condensable) model with conservation equations for mass, energy, and momentum transfer is used. The reactor core is modeled in S-RELAP5 with heat generation rates determined from reactor kinetics equations (point kinetics) with reactivity feedback, and with actinide and decay heat.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Licensing Report Page 6 The two-fluid formulation uses a separate set of conservation equations and constitutive relations for each phase. The effects of one phase on the other are accounted for by interfacial friction, and heat and mass transfer interaction terms in the equations. The conservation equations have the same form for each phase; only the constitutive relations and physical properties differ.

The modeling of plant components is performed by following guidelines developed to ensure accurate accounting for physical dimensions and that the dominant phenomena expected during the LBLOCA event are captured. The basic building blocks for modeling are hydraulic volumes for fluid paths and heat structures for heat transfer. In addition, special purpose components exist to represent specific components such as the Reactor Coolant Pumps (RCPs) or the steam generator (SG) separators. All geometries are modeled at the resolution necessary to best resolve the flow field and the phenomena being modeled within practical computational limitations.

The analysis considers blockage effects due to clad swelling and rupture as well as increased heat load due to fuel relocation in the ballooned region of the cladding in the prediction of the hot fuel rod PCT.

A typical calculation using S-RELAP5 begins with the establishment of a steady-state initial condition with all loops intact. The input parameters and initial conditions for this

measured data. Additionally, the COPERNIC code provides initial conditions for the S-RELAP5 fuel models. Specific parameters are discussed in Section 2.6.

Following the establishment of an acceptable steady-state condition, the transient -

calculation is initiated by introducing a break into one of the loops. The evolution of the transient through blowdown, refill, and reflood is computed continuously using S-RELAP5. Containment pressure is calculated by the ICECON module within S-RELAP5.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page?

A detailed assessment of the S-RELAP5 computer code was made through comparisons to experimental data. These assessments were used to develop quantitative estimates of the ability of the code to predict key physical phenomena in a PWR LBLOCA. The final step of the best-estimate methodology is to combine all the uncertainties related to' the code and plant parameters and estimate the first three criteria of 10 CFR 50.46 with a probability of at least 95 percent with 95 percent confidence. The steps taken to derive the uncertainty estimate are summarized below:

1.

Base Plant Input File Development First, base COPERNIC and S-RELAP5 input files for the plant (including the containment input file) are developed. The code input development guidelines documented in Appendix A of Reference 1, as amended by References 2 and 3, are applied to ensure that model nodalization is consistent with the model riodalization used in the code validation.

2.

Sampled Case Development The statistical approach requires that many "sampled" cases be created and processed. For every set of input created, each "key LOCA parameter".is randomly sampled over a range established through code* uncertainty

  • assessment or expected operating limits (provided* by plant technical specifications or data). Those parameters considered "key LOCA parameters" are listed in Table A-6 of 1, as amended by References 2 and 3. This list includes both parameters related to LOCA phenomena, based on the PIRT provided in Reference 1, and to plant operating parameters. The uncertainty ranges associated with each of the model parameters are provided in Table A-7 of

--Reference 1, as amendecroyReferences 2ana3.

3.

Determination of Adequacy of ECCS The RLBLOCA methodology uses a non-parametric statistical approach to determine that the. first three criteria of 10 CFR 50.46.. are met with.a probability higher than 95 percent with 95 percent confidence.

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 M5 Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report 2.4 GDC-35 Limiting Condition Determination ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 8 GDC-35 requires that a system be designed to provide abundant core cooling with suitable redundancy such that the capability is maintained in either the loss of offsite power (LOOP) or the offsite power available (No-LOOP) condition.

2.5 Overall Statistical Compliance to Criteria 2.6 Plant Description and Summary of Analysis Parameters The plant analyzed is the Millstone Unit 2, CE designed PWR, which has 2x4-loop arrangement. There are two hot legs each with an U-tube steam generator and four cold legs each with a RCP. The RCS includes one Pressurizer connected to a hot leg. The ECCS comprises four SITs, one per loop/cold leg, and one full train of Low Pressure Safety Injection (LPSI) and High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) (after applying the single failure assumption). The HPSI and LPSI feed into common headers (cross connected) that are connected to the SIT lines. The RLBLOCA transients are of

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 MS Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis Licensing Report ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Page 9 sufficiently short duration that the switchover to sump cooling water for ECCS pumped injection does not need to be considered.

The S-RELAP5 model explicitly describes the RCS, reactor vessel, pressurizer, and ECCS. The ECCS includes a SIT path and a LPSl/HPSI path per RCS loop. The HPSI and LPSI feed into a common header that connects to each cold leg pipe downstream of the RCP discharge. The ECCS pumped injection is modeled as a table of flow versus backpressure. This model also describes the secondary-side steam generator that is instantaneously isolated (closed main steam isolation valve and feedwater trip) at the time of the break. The analysis includes AREVA fuel with M5 cladding and utilizes the COPERNIC code for fuel calculations within S-RELAP5. The primary and secondary coolant systems for Millstone Unit 2 were nodalized consistent with code input guidelines in Appendix A of Reference 1, and as amended by References 2 and 3.

As described in Appendix A of Reference 1, as amended by References 2 and 3, many parameters associated with LBLOCA phenomenological uncertai'nties and plant operation ranges are sampled. A summary of those parameters sampled is given in Table A-6 of Reference 1, as amended. by References 2 and 3. The LBLOCA phenomenological uncertainties are provided in Table A-7 of Reference 1, as amended by References 2 and 3. Values for process or operational parameters, including ranges of sampled process parameters, and fuel design parameters used in this analysis are given in Table 1. Table 2 presents a summary of the uncertainties used in the analysis.

Two parameters (refueling water storage tank temperature and diesel start time) are set

.at conservative bounding values for all calculations. The passive heat sinks and material properties used in the containment input model are provided in Table 3.

2. 7 SE Limitations The RLBLOCA analysis for Millstone Unit 2 presented herein is consistent with the submitted RLBLOCA methodology documented in EMF-2103, Revision 3 (Reference 1) and as supplemented in the RAI responses and Errata in References 2 and 3. The

  • are a PCT of 1615°F, a maximum local oxidation of 2.01 percent, and a total core-wide oxidation of 0.025 percent. The fraction of total hydrogen generated was not directly calculated; however, it is conservatively bounded by the calculated total core wide percent oxidation, which is well below the 1 percent limit.

This analysis assumes a full core of AREVA Standard CE14 HTP fuel design which incorporates M5 clad fuel rod design among other features. However, at the time of the application of this analysis, the Millstone Unit 2 core will be a mixed core of AREVA Standard CE14 HTP fuel design and the resident fuel design which is a CE 14x14 HTP

The differences are such that thermal hydraulic performance is not impacted and modeling the core as a full core of M5 is acceptable and no penalty is required for this analysis.

The sequence of event times for the demonstration case is provided in Table 7. The heat transfer parameter ranges for the demonstration case are provided in Table 8. [

The analysis plots for the case set are shown in Figure 1 through Figure 5. Figure 1 shows linear scatter plots of the key parameters sampled for all cases. Parameter labels appear to the left of each individual plot. These figures illustrate the parameter ranges used in the analysis. Visual examination of the linear scatter plots demonstrates that the spread and coverage of all of the values used is appropriate and within the uncertainty ranges listed in Table 2. Appendix A provides a listing of all the sampled input values for each case. Key results such as the PCT and event timings are also listed for the case set.

Figure 2 and Figure 3 show PCT scatter plots versus the time of PCT and versus break size, respectively. The scatter plots for the maximum loca.1 oxidation and total core-wide oxidation are shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, respectively.

The first cluster shows PCT timings of less than 15 seconds (blowdown period); the second cluster shows PCT timings between 15 seconds and 50 seconds (early reflood period). Slowdown PCT cases are dominated by rapid RCS depressurization anc;I stored energy content. Early reflood PCT cases are dominated by decay heat removal capacity, which is highly dependent on SIT liquid volume and pressure setpoint. As shown in Figure 3, there is a strong correlation of PCT to break size. From all sampled parameters, the break size is a dominant effect in PCT because of its high influence in the rate of primary depressurization. As such, the high PCT clusters correlate with the larger end of the break sizes. In general, for this plant design, larger breaks peak at either the blowdown phase or the early reflood

AREVA Inc.

Millstone Unit 2 M5 Upgrade, Realistic Large Break LOCA Analysis ANP-3316NP Revision 0 Licensing Report Page 13 phase of the transient depending on the influence of various phenomena such as blowdown flow reversal/stagnation, ECCS bypass, and steam binding. Large SITs with low pressure setpoints tend towards delayed injection which results in less ECCS bypass. Therefore, the late reflood PCT cases (> 50 seconds, Figure 2) are typically smaller break sizes with slower depressurizations and lower PCTs. An exception to that is the case inFigure 2 with a late reflood peak (-157 seconds) and relatively high PCT

(>1500°F). This case falls in the larger end of the break sizes (-4.0 ft2/side). However, it is characterized by a combination of sampling parameters leading to an earlier SIT depletion and a relatively slower reflood rate than the surrounding break size cases.

The demonstration case is a blowdown peak case with a PCT timing of 7.4 seconds.

Figure 6 through Figure 17 show key parameters from the S-RELAP5 calculations for the demonstration case. The transient progression for the demonstration case follows that described in Section 2.2.

Figure 4 shows a general increasing trend of MLO with PCT. Since the MLO includes the pre-transient oxidation, the MLO is not only a function of cladding temperature but of time in cycle (burnup), which explains the scatter of the points. A stronger correlation of the CWO to PCT is demonstrated in Figure 5 as higher PCT cases would have a higher oxidation throughout the core.

4.0 CONCLUSION

S ANP-3316NP Revision O Page 14 This report describes and provides results from the RLBLOCA analysis for the Millstone Unit 2 Ms fuel upgrade. The plant is a PWR Combustion Engineering 2x4-loop design with an analyzed thermal power of 2754 MWt (includes power calorimetric uncertainty) and dry atmospheric containment. The loops contain four RCPs, two U-tube steam generators and a pressurizer. The base model and the design inputs used are representative of the Millstone Unit 2 plant. The application of the AREVA RLBLOCA methodology involves developing input decks, executing the simulations that comprise the uncertainty analysis, retrieving PCT, MLO, and CWO information and determining the simultaneous UTL results for the.criteria.

[

] The UTL results providing a 95/95 simultaneous coverage/confidence level from this evaluation meet the 10 CFR 50.46(b) criteria with a PCT of 1615°F, a maximum local oxidation of 2.01 percent and a total core-wide oxidation of 0.025 percent.
