The potential environmental consequences of a steam generator tube failure at the R.

E. Ginna nuclear power plant were evaluated in order to demonstrate the Standard Technical Specification limit on primary coolant activity is acceptable.

Results of the design analysis indicate that the conservative site boundary and low population zone exposure from a steam generator tube failure are within 10 CFR 100 limitations with Standard Technical Specifica-tion limits on initial coolant activity.

Therefore, the Standard Technical Specification limit on coolant activity is sufficient to ensure that the environmental consequences of a steam generator tube failure will be within acceptable limits.

INTRODUCTION

'I Potential environmental consequences of a steam generator tube rupture event at the R. E. Ginna nuclear power plant have been evaluated to verify that the standard technical specification limit on primary coolant activity is ade uate for Ginna.

Mass releases were calculated using the computer code LOFTRAN with conservative assumptions of break size, condenser availability, and various operator response times.

The effect of steam generator overfill and subsequent water relief through secondary side relief valves was also addressed.

Conservative assumptions concerning coolant activity, meteorology, and partitioning between liquid and vapor phases were applied to these mass releases'o determine an upper bound on site boundary and low population zone doses.

Best estimate mass releases during the January 25, 1982 tube failure event at Ginna were also calculated based on analyses presented in reference 2.

These releases were used to estimate potential doses which could have resulted, if the accident had occurred with coolant activity limits established

. in the standard technical specifications.

MASS RELEASES

'ass releases during a design basis steam generator tube rupture event were calculated using, established FSAR methodology assuming various operator response times.

Releases during the Ginna event were also estimated.

Contributions from both the intact and faulted steam generators were evaluated as well as flow to the condenser and atmosphere.

These mass releases are presented for various time periods during the accident.

The assumptions and methodology which were used to generate the results ere described in the following sections.

II.l Design Basis Accident The accident examined is the complete severance of a single steam generator tube during full power operation.

This is considered a condition IV event, a

limiting fault, and leads to an increase in the contamination of the secondary system due to leakage of radioactive coolant from the RCS.

Discharge of acti-vity to the atmosphere may occur via the steam generator safety and/or power operated relief valves.

The concentration of contaminants in the primary system is continuously controlled to limit such releases.

II.1.1 Sequence of Events If normal operation of the various plant control systems is assumed, the fol-lowing sequence of events is initiated by a tube rupture:

H A.

The steam generator blowdown liquid monitor and/or the condenser air ejector radiation monitor will alarm, indicating a sharp increase in radioactivity in the secondary system.

B.

Pressurizer low pressure and low level alarms are actuated and charging pump flow increases in an attempt to maintain pressurizer level.

On the secondary side steam flow/feedwater flow mismatch occurs as feedwater flow to the affected steam generator is reduced to compensate for break flow to that unit.

~I C.

The decrease in'CS pressure due to continued loss of reactor coolant inventory leads to a reactor trip signal on low pressurizer pressure or 3'vertemperature delta-T.

Plant cooldown following reactor trip leads to a rapid decrease.

in pressurizer level and a safety injection signal, initi-ated by low pressurizer

pressure, follows soon after reactor trip.

The safety injection signal automatically terminates normal feedwater supply and initiates auxiliary feedwater addition.

D.

The reactor trip automatically trips the turbine and, if offsite power is available, the steam dump valves open permitting steam dump to the conden-ser.

In the event of coincident, station blackout, as assumed in the results presented, the steam dump valves automatically close to protect the condenser.

The steam generator pressure rapidly increases resulting in steam discharge to the atmosphere through the steam generator safety and/or power operated relief valves.

> ~

E.

The auxiliary feedwater and borated safety injection flow provide a heat sink which absorbs decay heat and attenuates steaming from the steam gene-rators.

F.

Safety.injection flow results in increasing pressurizer water volume at a rate dependent upon the amount of auxiliary equipment operating.

RCS pressure eventually equilibrates at a pressure greater than the affected steam generator pressure where safety injection flow matches break flow.

.The operator is expected to determine that a steam generator tube rupture has occurred and to identify and isolate the faulty steam generator on a restric-ted time scale in order to minimize contamination of the secondary system and ensure termination of radioactive release to the atmosphere from'the faulty unit.

Sufficient indications and controls are provided to enable the operator to complete recovery procedures from within the control room.

High radiation indications or rapidly increasing water level in any steam generator provide symptoms of the faulted steam generator which ensure identification before the water level increases above the narrow range.

For smaller tube failures,

I

~

~

sampling of the steam generators for high radiation may be required for positive identification.

However, in that case additional time would be available before water level increases out of narrow range.

Once identified, the faulted steam generator is isolated from the intact steam generators to minimize activity releases and as a necessary step toward estab-lishing a pressure differential between the intact and faulted steam genera-tors.

The Mai'n Steamline Isolation Valves (MSIV) provide this capability.

In the event of a failure of the MISV for the faulted steam generator, the MSIV for the intact steam generator and the turbine stop'alve ensure a redundant means of isolation.

Auxiliary feedwater flow is terminated to the'faulted unit in an attempt to control steam generator inventory.

The reactor coolant temperature is reduced to establish a minimum of 50 F subcooling margin at the ruptured steam generator pressure by dumping steam from the intact steam generator.

This assures that the primary system will remain subcooled 'following depressurization to the faulted steam generator pressure in subsequent steps.

If the condenser is available, the normal steam dump system is used fo'r this cooldown.

Isolation of the faulted steam genera-tor ensures that pressure in that unit will not decrease significantly. If the condenser is unavailable or if the MSIV for the faulted steam generator fails, the atmospheric relief valve on the intact steam generator provides an alternative means of cooling the reactor coolant system.

The~rimary pressure is reduced to a value equal to the faulted steam genera-l +

tor pressure using normal pressurizer spray.

This action restores pressurizer level as safety injection flow in excess of break flow replaces condensed

'steam in the pressurizer, and momentarily stops primary-to-secondary leakage.

If normal spray is not available, the pressurizer PORVs and auxiliary spray system provide redundant means of depressurizing the reactor coolant system.

I

~

Termination of safety injection flow is required to ensure that break flow is not reinitiated.

Previous operator actions are designed to establish suffi-cient indications of adequate primary coolant inventory and heat removal so that core cooling will not be compromised as a result of SI termination.

I 1

'his sequence of recovery actions ensures early termination of primary-to-

. secondary leakage with or without offsite power available.

The time required to complete these actions are event specific since smaller breaks may be more difficult to detect.

In these

analyses, operator action times have been treated parametrically, ranging from 30 minutes to a maximum of 60 minutes to complete the key recovery sequence.

II.l.2 Method of Analysis Mass and energy balance calculations were performed using LOFTRAN to determine primary-to-secondary mass leakage and the amount of steam vented from. each of the steam generators prior to terminating safety injection.

In estimating the mass releases during recovery, the following assumptions were made:

A.

Reactor trip occurs automatically as a result of low pressurizer pressure or overtemperature delta-T.

Loss of offsite power occurs at reactor trip.

B.

Following the initiation of the safety injection signal, all safety injec-tion pumps are actuated.

Flow from the normal charging pumps is not con-sidered since it is automatically terminated on a safety injection signal.

C.

The secondary side pressure is assumed to be controlled at the safety valve pressure following reactor trip.

This is consistent with loss of offsite power.

D.

Auxiliary feedwater flow is assumed throttled to match steam flow in all steam generators to control steam generator level.

Minimum auxiliary feedwater capacity is assumed.

This results in increased steaming from the steam generators.

4 E.

Individual operator actions are not explicitly modeled in the analyses presented.

However, it is assumed that the operator completes the recovery sequence on a restricted time scale.

This time is treated para-metrically.

~

0 F.

For cases where steam generator overfill occurs, water relief from the faulted steam generator to the atmosphere is assumed equal to any addi-tional primary-to-secondary leakage after overfill occurs.

Steam1ine volume is not considered in calculating the time of steam generator over-fill 1.

Prior to reactor trip steam is assumed to be released to the condenser from the faulted and intact steam generators.

Steam from all steam generators is dumped to the atmosphere after reactor trip since the condenser is unavailable as a result of station blackout.

Extended steam release calculations, i.e. after break flow has been termina-ted, reflect expected operator actions as described in the Westinghouse Owners Group's'Emergency

Response

Guidelines Following isolation of the faulted steam generator, it is assumed that steam is dumped from the intact steam generator to reduce the RCS temperature to 50 F below no-load Tavg.

From two to eight hours after tube failure, the RCS coolant temperature is reduced to Residual Heat Removal System (RHRS) operating conditions via addi-

'ional steaming from the intact steam generator.

Further plant cooldown to cold shutdown is completed with the RHRS.

If steam generator overfill does not occur, the faulted steam generator is depressurized by releasing steam

-from that steam generator to the atmosphere.

An alternate cooldown method, such as backfill into the RCS, is considered if the faulted steam generator fills with water.

In that case additional steaming occurs from the intact steam generator.

The extended steam and feedwater flows are determined from a mass-and energy balance including decay heat, metal. heat, energy from one

~

operating reactor coolant

pump, and sensible energy of the fluid in the RCS and steam generators.

The sequence of events for the design basis accident are presented in Table II.1. 2-1.

The primary-to-secondary carryover and steam and feedwater flows associated with each of the steam generators are provided in Tables II.1.2-2 and II.1.2-3 for recovery times of 30 and 60 minutes, respectively.

Since individual operator actions were not modelled, the system response is the same for both cases.

.0 liquid level in faulted steam generator remains below the bottom of the mois-ture separator, Figure II.1.2-1.

Hence, for this case, partitioning between the vapor and liquid phases effectively reduces radiological releases for the duration of the accident.

For delayed recovery, case 2, the moisture separa-tor begins to flood at 32 minutes.

The faulte'd steam generator is completely filled by 47 minutes.

During this time, liquid entrainment within the steam flow would increase so that the effectiveness of partitioning would be reduced.

Beyond 47 minutes, i.e.

steam generator overfill, water relief from the faulted steam generator 'is assumed equal to break flow.

event described in section II.1.1.

Break flow in excess of normal charging flow depleted reactor coolant inventory and eventually resulted in reactor trip on low pressurizer pressure.

A safety injection signal followed soon after trip.

Normal feedwater flow was automatically terminated on the safety injection signal and auxiliary feedwater flow was initiated.

The steam dump system operated to control steam gene-rator pressure below the safety valve setpoint and establish no-load reactor coolant temperature.

Auxiliary 4

feedwater and safety injection flows absorbed decay heat and temporarily stopped steam releases from the steam generators.

Emergency recovery actions were quickly initiated to mitigate the consequences of the accident.

Pre-tri p symptoms of the faulted steam generator, including steam flow/feed flow mismatch and steam generator level deviation alarms, provided tentative indications of the faulted steam generator which were con-firmed soon after reactor trip by rapidly increasing steam generator level and high radiation indications.

Auxiliary feedwater flow was reduced to the faulted unit in an attempt to control inventory.

Isolation -of the faulted steam generator was completed within 15 minutes of tube failure by closing the associated MSIV.

Continued auxiliary feedwater flow to the intact steam gene-

'ator effectively reduced the primary system temperature to establish 50 F subcooling margin.

Normal spray was unavailable since reactor coolant pumps were manually tripped soon after reactor trip as directed by emergency proce-dures.

Consequently, one pressurizer PORY was used as an alternative means of depressurizing the primary system to restore pressurizer level and reduce break flow.

This was completed within 45 minutes.

Safety injection flow was subsequently terminated after 72 minutes.

Continued charging flow and reini-tiation of safety injection flow resulted in additional primary-to-secondary leakage until approximately 3 hrs after tube failure.

Mass releases during the Ginna event are presented in Table II.2-2.

LOFTRAN results indicate that the faulted steam generator and steamline filled with water after approximately 52 minutes, Figure II.2-1.

Beyond this time water relief from the faulted steam generator was assumed equal to any additional primary-to-secondary leakage.

These results show that approxi-mately 236,000 ibm of mass were released after the faulted steam generator and steamline was calculated to fill with water.

Approximately 130,000 ibm of this were released in the first 2 hrs.

Steam flow to condenser was terminated at approximately 75 minutes.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSE(}UENCES ANALYSIS Introduc tion For the evaluation of the radiological consequences of a steam generator tube rupture, it is assumed that the reactor has been operting with a small percent of defective fuel for sufficient time to establish equilibrium concentrations of radionuclides in the reactor coolant.

Hence, radionuclides from the primary coolant enter the steam generator, via'he ruptured

tube, and are released to the atmosphere through the steam generator safety or power ope'rated relief val ves.

The radioactivity released to the environment, due to a

SGTR, depends upon primary and secondary coolant activity, iodine spiking effects, primary to secondary break flow, time dependent break flow flashing fractions, time dependent scrubbing of flashed activity, partitioning of the activity from the non flashed fraction of the break f'1ow between the steam generator 1iquid and steam and the mass of fluid discharged to the environment.

All of these parameters were conservatively evaluated for a design basis tube failure, i.e.

double ended rupture of a single tube, as described in Section II.l.

The mass releases during the Ginna event were also estimated in Section II.2.

The environmental consequences at these events were calculated and are discussed in the fo11owing sections.

III.1 DESIGN BASES ANALYTICALASSUMPTIONS, The major assumptions and parameters used in the analysis are itemized in Table I I.l-l and are summarized below.

E 27

Source Term Calculations The concentrations of nuclides in the primary and secondary system, prior to the accident are determined as follows:

a.

The iodine concentrations in the reactor coolant will be, based upon preaccident and accident initiated iodine spikes.

i.

Preaccident Spike - A reactor transient has occured prior to the SGTR and has raised the primary coolant iodine concentration to 60 pCi/gram of Dose Equivalent I-131.

ii. Accident Initiated Spike - The reactor trip or primary system depressurization associated with the SGTR creates an iodine spike in the primary system which increases the iodine release rate from the fuel to the primary coolant to a value 500 times greater than the release rate corresponding to the maximum equilibrium primary system iodine concentration of 1pCi/gram of Dose Equivalent (D.E.) I-131.

'The duration of the spike is assumed to be.4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

Iodine appearance I

rates in the reactor coolant are presented in Table III.1-2.

Doses are:

I calculated for both cases of spiking.

b.

The noble gas activity in the reactor coolant is based on 1 percent-fuel

defects, as provided in Table III.1-3.

'I The assumption of 1 percent fuel defects for the calculation of noble gas activity is conservative, since luCi/gram D.E. I-131 and 1 percent defects cannot exist simultaneously.

Iodine activity based on 1 percent defects would be greater than twice the Standard Technical Specification. limit.

c.

The secondary coolant activity is based on the D.E. of 0.1 pCi/gram of I-131.

d.

Iodine at the rupture point is assumed to consist of 99.9 percent elemental and 0.1 percent organic iodine.

28

Dose Calculations The following assumptions and parameters are used to calculate the activity released and the offsite doses following a SGTR.

a.

The mass of reactor coolant discharged into the secondary system through the rupture and the mass of steam and/or water released from the intact and faulted steam generators, to the environment is presented in Tables II.1.2-2 and 3.

b.

The time dependent fraction of rupture flow that flashes to steam and is immediately released to the environment is shown in Figure III-l-l.

c.

The time dependent elemental iodine attenuation fac tor for retention of atomized primary droplets by the moisture separators and dryers and for scrubbing of steam bubbles as they rise from the leak site to the water surface is presented in Figure III.1-2.

Retention oy moisture separators and scrubbing are effected by differential pressure (dP) across the ruptured tube and water level.

Specifically for the first 4 minutes aP is assumed to be high (> 1000 psi) and water level low (just above top of tube bundle).

For this period, neither retention nor scrubbing is assumed and the overall factor is 1.0.

For times greater than 4

minutes, the dP decreases to:approximately 300 psi and remains constant.

For times greater than 4 but less than 32 minutes, retention by the separators is constant and at a maximum.

At 32 minutes the separators begin to flood and at 47 minutes the generator is filled.

Retention by the separators decreases from the maximum at 32 minutes to zero at.47 minutes.

Scrubbing increases with rising water level.

d.

The 1

gpm primary to seco'ndary leak is assumed to be split evenly between the steam generators.

29

e.

All noble gas activity in. the reactor coolant which is transported to the secondary system via the tube rupture and the primary-to-secondary leakage is assumed to be immediately released to the environment.

f.

Case 1 assumes 30 minute operator action to terminate break flow.

The liquid level in the faul ted SG remains below the moisture separator.

Case 2 assumes 60 minute operator action.

The moisture separator begins to flood at 32 minutes and the generator is filled at.47 minutes.

g.

The elemental iodine partition factor between the liquid and steam of the intact SG is assumed to be 100..The time dependent partition factor for the faulted SG is presented in Figure III.1-3.

h.

Offsite power is lost following reactor trip.

i.. Eight hours after the accident, the RHR system is 'assumed to be in opera'tion

'to cool down the plant.

Thus, no additional steam release is assumed.

j.

Neither radioactive decay, during release and.transport, nor ground deposition of activity was considered.

k.

Short-term atmospheric dispersion factors (x/g's) for accident analysis and breathing rates are provided in Table 111.1-4.

l.

Decay constants, average beta and gamma energies and thyroid dose conversion factors are presented in Table 111.1-5.

III.2 Best Estimate Anal tical Assumptions The major assumptions and parameters used in the analysis are itemized in l aole III.2-1 and are summarized below.

Source Term Calculations lhe concentrations of nuclides in the primary and secondary system, prior to the accident are determined as follows:

a.

The iodine concentrations in the'eactor coolant will be based upon preaccident and accident initiated iodine spikes.

i.

Preaccident Spike A reactor transient has occurred prior to the SGTR and has raised the primary coolant iodine concentration to 8 pCi/gram of Dose Equivalent I-131.

(The basis for the spiking factors is presented in Ref. 9.)

ii. Accident Initiated Spike The reactor trip or primary system depressurization associated with the SGTR creates an iodine spike in the primary system which increases the iodine release rate from the I

tuel to the primary coolant to a value 30L

~ times greater than the release rate corresponding to the maximum equilibrium primary system iodine concentration of lpCi/gram of Dose Equivalent (O.E.) 1-131.

The duration of the spike is assumed to be 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

Iodine appearance rates in the reactor coolant are presented in Table 2.

Doses are calculated for both cases of spiking.

b.

The noble gas activity in the reactor coolant is based on 1-percent fuel

defects, as provided in Tan)e 3 of Part III.l.

c.

Tne secondary coolant activity is based on the O.E. of O.lw Ci/gram of I-131.

d.

Iooine at the rupture point is assumed

'to consist of 100 percent elemental iodine.

44

I

The assumption of I-percent fuel defects for the calculation of noble gas activity is conservative since lpCi/gram D.E.

I-131 and I percent defects cannot exist simultaneously.

Iodine activity based on 1.percent defects would be greater than twice the Technical Specification limit.

Dose Calculations The following assumptions and parameters are used to calculate the activity released and the offsite doses following a SGTR.

a.

The mass of reactor coolant discharged into the secondary system through the rupture and the mass of steam and/or water released from the intact and faulted steam generators, to the environment is presented in Table III.2-2.

I b.

The time dependent fraction of rupture flow that flashes to steam and is immediately released to the environment is shown in Figure II.I.2-1.

c.

The time dependent elemental iodine attenuation factor for retention of atomized primary droplets by the moisture separators and dryers and for scrubbing of steam bubbles as they rise from the leak site to the water surface is presented in Figure III.2-2.

Retention. by moisture separators and scrubbung are effected by differential pressure (aP) across the ruptured tube and water level.

Specifically for the first 5 minutes sP is assumed to be high (550 psi) and water level low (top of tube bundle).

For this period, retention and scrubbing are assumed and the overall factor is 1.45.

For times greater than 5 minutes the aP decreases to approximately 450 psi and is assumed constant for the duration of the flashing period.

For times greater than 5 but less than 22 minutes, retention by the separators is assumed constant and at a maximum.

At 22 minutes the separators begin to flood and at 52 minutes the generator and steam line are filled.

Retention by the separators decreases from the maximum at 5 minutes to zero at 36 minutes.

Scruobing increases with rising water level.

f.

The moisture separator begins to flood at 22 minutes and the generator and steam line are filled at 52 minutes.

g.

The elemental iodine partition factor between the liquid and steam of the intact SG is assumed to be 5000.

The time dependent partition factor for the faulted SG is presented in Figure III.2-3.

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS The potential environmental consequences of a steam generator tube failure at the R.

E.

Ginna nuclear power plant were evaluated in order to demonstrate that the Standard Technical Specifications limit on primary coolant activity is acceptable.

The mass releases during a design basis event, i.e.

a double

'nded rupture of a single tube, were conservatively calculated using the com-puter co'de LOFTRAN.

For these

analyses, the sequence of recovery actions initiated by the tube failure were assumed to be completed on a restricted time scale.

-Two cases were considered:

a) 30 minute recovery, and b) 60 minute recovery.

The effect of steam generator overfill on radiological'eleases was also considered.

Mass releases during the design basis event were used with conservative assumptions of coolant activity, meteorology, and attenuation to estimate an upper bound of site boundary and low population zone exposures.

The mass releases from the January 25, 1982 steam generator tube failure at Ginna were also calculated from results presented in reference 2.

These releases were used with the Standard Technical Specification limit on initial coolant activity and a more realistic meteorology to evaluate potential doses on a more realistic basis.

Results of the design basis analyses indicate that the conservative site boundary and low population zone exposures from a steam generator tube failure

're within 10CFR100 limitations w'ith the Standard Technical Specification limit on initial coolant activity.

Estimates of the potential radiological releases from a more realistic event with the same initial coolant activity demonstrate that the design basis analysis is very conservative.

Conse-quently, the Standard Technical Specification limit on coolant activity are sufficient to ensure that the environmental consequences of a steam generator tube failure at the R.

E.

Ginna plant will be within acceptable limits.
