MSLB CALC ENERGY RELEASE ERROR

Description:

Originator: Supv Contacted: Condition

Description:

During the EC 371293 evaluation, an error was discovered in the Unit 1main steam line break outside containment energy release calculation. ThisIR is the Braidwood parallel to Byron IR 792213. With the ReplacementSteam Generators (RSG), Framatome provided the Mass and Energy (M&E) release calculations which were used as input to the Reference 1 RSG containment evaluation and Main Steam (MS) tunnel evaluations in Appendix

B of Reference 2. In EC 371293 it was concluded that the energy releaseedits used in Reference 2 for Unit 1 were thermodynamic internal energy, not the required edit for enthalpy.The Reference 2 calculation did not document an evaluation for poweruprate. The Reference 1 Framatome calculation was analyzed for 102% of3411 MWt down to 30% of 3411 MWt for a steam line break inside containment. B/B units 1 and 2 are currently licensed to 3586.6 MWt.Reference 1 was analyzed to a conservative initial SG pressure of 1131.5psia which covers the current full power pressure. Hot zero power has higher SG pressure and larger initial water inventory in the SG than fullpower which was also not evaluated, although it may be non-limiting forpeak steam line tunnel pressure depending on the assumptions used.Therefore, the Reference 2 M&E used for Unit 1 had several items that needre-evaluation and documentation with respect to the current design basisM&E for the short term of a steam line break outside containment.In addition, while comparing M&E tables in the UFSAR with the M&E tablesin Reference 2, it was noticed that the UFSAR Tables 6.2-50 and 6.2-50ahave a typo listing Energy Rate units as (MBtu/Lbm) when the values shownshould have been labeled (MBtu/sec) .

Informed Byron & BraidwoodDesign Engineering Supervisor and Corporate Design Engineering Supervisorof issue. Byron & Braidwood engineering already had S&L perform an immediate operability evaluation basis under ATI 790428-02 which includedthe EC 371293 corrected M&E tables.Recommended Actions:1.Byron & Braidwood engineering to have Westinghouse or others perform are-constituted calculation to support a corrected M&E input table and main steam line tunnel pressure calculation to replace 3C8-0282-0001 includingpower uprate and hot zero power evaluation.2.Byron & Braidwood regulatory assurance to correct typos in next UFSARupdate for Tables 6.2-50 and 6.2-50a to have Energy Rate units labeled (MBtu/sec)3.Byron & Braidwood engineering to perform a DCR type EC for revisions tothe Reference 2 calculations with the new M&Es and power uprate evaluation.What activities, processes, or procedures were involved?Corporate performing of EC 371293 to support ATI 790428-02What are the consequences?Analytical Unit 1 Main Steam tunnel pressure will increase under steam line break conditions when the error is corrected. There is a consequence to revise calculations.List of knowledgeable individuals:Operable Basis:Unit 1 and Unit 2 steam tunnel and AF tunnel hatches are Operable based onevaluation performed per Op Eval 07-007.

The following response was provid ed by the originator of IR 792215:The energy error only affects calc 3C8-0282-001. The error was onlypresent in Framatome Document Release Notice 32-1258100-00, which wasused for Unit 1 in calc 3C8-0282-001, Appendix B. The purpose of theinformation sent to ComEd B/B Units 1, which contained the energy error, was for SLB steam line break subcompartment analysis following high energy line breaks to be used by Sargent and Lundy for subcompartment analysis. Calc3C8-0282-001 is the only analysis which accomplishes this purpose.Correction of the energy error was determined in EC 371293. This EC alsodetermined "best estimate" mass releases to be used for operability. Whilethe energy was increased, a significant reduction in the Unit 1 steam linePage 2of 10 Full Action Request Report 8/31/201 7http://eamgenco.ceco.com/cap/servlet/ReportFullARServlet break peak mass flows were obtained compared to the mass flows used incalc 3C8-0282-001, Rev.3. The two effects tend to offset each other basedon engineering judgment. The increased energy produces more pressure inthe MS tunnel; and the lower peak mass release reduces peak pressure inthe MS tunnel. The Mass & Energy releases in calc 3C8-0282-001, Rev. 3 for Unit 2 from Westinghouse remain bounding compared to the EC 371293 bestestimate mass and energy releases. The peak tunnel pressure of 19.7 psigfor Unit 2 in calc 3C8-0282-001 remains bounding for both units, if noother changes to the inputs in calc 3C8-0282-001 are considered. It is notknown which structural calcs used the output of the 3C8-0282-001 calc,however, assuming the 19.7 psig was adequate for the tunnel walls on Unit2, the Unit 1 walls with the same design can likely withstand the samepressure.The combined effects of the energy error with other issues are addressedin Braidwood Operability Evaluation 07-007 Revision 4 since thatoperability evaluation used the corrected best estimate mass and energyreleases.Other subcompartment analyses not affected are:Westinghouse calc CN-CRA-00-16 was performed to address Unit 1 outsidecontainment pressures and temperatures for Power Uprate. Westinghouse developed their own detailed M&E tables for various scenarios and performed the containment analysis. This calc did not use any of theFramatome M&E data.Westinghouse calc CN-CRA-00-18 was performed to address Unit 2 outsidecontainment pressures and temperatures for Power Uprate. Westinghouse developed their own detailed M&E tables for various scenarios and performed the containment analysis. This calc did not use any of theFramatome M&E data.Westinghouse calc CN-CRA-00-39 was performed to address peak MS tunneltemperatures for Power Uprate. Westinghouse used the CN-CRA-00-16 andCN-CRA-00-18 mass and energy tables. This calc did not use any of theFramatome M&E data.UFSAR section 6.2.1.2 based on WCAP-8082, WCAP-8264, and WCAP-8077(Section 6.2 ref 6,7,8) addressed MSLB in the pipe chase compartmentswithin containment. These WCAPs could not have used any of the FramatomeM&E data.In conclusion, Operability Evaluation 07-007 Revision 4 approved 7/1/08was not affected by the errors identified in IR 792215. No otheroperability concerns exist due to the errors identified in IR 792215.
