INTRODUCTION The Prairie Island Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) criticality analysis, as documented in the License Amendment Issuance, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Accession Number ML13241A383 (Reference 1), supported by WCAP-17400-P, "Prairie Island Units 1 and 2 Spent Fuel Pool Criticality Safety Analysis, (Reference

2) has been reviewed and approved by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

The purpose of this report is to document the additional criticality safety analysis performed to support the storage of fuel containing Integral Fuel Burnable Absorber (IFBA) as part of a fuel design transition for Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Units 1 and 2. This analysis is necessary because of the spent fuel pool reactivity change associated with IFBA Bearing fuel compared to non-IFBA Bearing fuel, due to spectral hardening as the dominant reactivity effect, while not crediting any residual absorber in the spent fuel pool for storage. Fuel not containing IFBA, including fuel containing Gadolinia, may be present in the core at the same time as fuel containing IFBA. Under equivalent operating and storage conditions, fuel which contained IFBA during depletion will bound fuel not containing IFBA during depleti.on with regard to reactivity in the SFP due to the spectral hardening that occurs when IFBA is present from increased thermal absorption.

Consequently, burnup requirements derived for fuel containing IFBA can be applied to fuel not containing IFBA provided the input parameters assumed for the IFBA Bearing fuel are also applicable to fuel being storage that does not have IFBA. For Revision 2 of this document, specific inputs are adjusted which in many cases are applicable to all fuel stored at Prairie Island. However some inputs may only be appropriate and conservative for assemblies operated in a core with assemblies containing IFBA. For simplicity all fuel of the same fuel design operated in the same conditions as fuel containing IFBA will be referred to as IFBA Bearing fuel from here onward. As a result, burnup requirements have been determined for IFBA Bearing fuel only. Then, in order to store all fuel currently stored as "Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4" and IFBA Bearing fuel using one consistent set of technical specifications, the impact of grid growth and the change of eccentric positioning methodology included ih the updated IFBA Bearing fuel analysis were incorporated into the WCAP-17400-P (Reference

2) analysis and a second set of updated burnup requirements were generated.

The maximum burnup requirements at analyzed enrichments between these two sets ofburnup requirements were then utilized to generate conservative burnup requirement coefficients to bound all fuel at Prairie Island other than fuel which operated during Cycles 1-4. The discussions in sections 1 through 5 contain only information and analysis used to support the development of burnup requirements for IFBA Bearing fuel. This document concludes with Section 6, which documents the development of combined burnup requirements for IFBA Bearing fuel and for Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference

2. Cycles 1-4 did not contain IFBA and therefore no comparison is necessary for burnup requirements associated with cycles 1-4. WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 2-1 S2. OVERVIEW See Section 2 of Reference
2. The presence ofIFBA Bearing fuel does not impact the overview.

S2.1 ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA The objective of this SFP criticality safety analysis is to ensure that the pool operates within the bounds discussed here. 1. All calculations of the effective neutron multiplication factor (ketr) performed for permissible storage arrangements at a soluble boron concentration of 0 ppm yield results less than 1.0 including margin for all applicable biases and uncertainties-with 95% probability at a 95% confidence level. 2. All calculations of the effective neutron multiplication factor (ketr) performed for permissible storage arrangements at a soluble boron concentration of 400 1 ppm yield results less than 0.95 including margin for all applicable biases and uncertainties with 95% probability at a 95% confidence level. 3. The analysis demonstrates that k 0 tr is less than 0.95 under all postulated accident conditions with a soluble boron concentration of less than 2400 2 ppm. This criterion shall also be met including margin for all applicable biases and uncertainties with 95% probability at a 95% confidence level. S2.2 DESIGN APPROACH Table S2-1 lists the fuel categories ranked by reactivity evaluated for IFBA Bearing fuel. Table S2-1 Fuel Categories Ranked by Reactivity Fuel Category 1 High Reactivity Fuel Category 2 Fuel Category 3 Fuel Category 4 Fuel Category 5 Fuel Category 6 Low Reactivity Notes: 1. Fuel categories are ranked in order of decreasing reactivity, e.g., Fuel Category 2 is less reactive than Fuel Category 1, etc. 2. Fuel Category 1 is fuel up to 5.0 wt% 235 U; no bumup is required.

3. Fuel Categories 2 through 6 are determined from the coefficients provided in Section S5 .1. 1 The limiting configuration in this supplemental analysis requires a minimum soluble boron concentration of340 ppm; however, to provide margin, the associated Technical Specifications (TS 4.3.1) may require any value between 340 ppm and the assumed boron dilution analysis endpoint.

400 ppm has been chosen as that value. 2 Based on a Proposed Tech. Spec. limit of2500 ppm with 100 ppm uncertainty.

WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 2-2 Category 7 fuel (Reference

2) addresses consolidated fuel assemblies.

Since there are no plans to consolidate fuel in the future, Category 7 fuel is not evaluated to store IFBA Bearing fuel, and as such, there are no storage limits developed for Category 7 IFBA Bearing fuel. See Section 2.2 of Reference 2 for additional of the design approach.

2. S3.l FUEL ASSEMBLY INFORMATION Prairie Island has operated using several different fuel assembly designs manufactured by Westinghouse Electric Company LLC (Westinghouse) as well as fuel assembly designs manufactured by Exxon Nuclear Fuel. The fuel assemblies for Prairie Island incorporate 14xl4 square arrays of 179 fuel rods with 16 control rod guide tubes (GTs) and one instrumentation tube (IT). The fuel rod cladding is Zircaloy or ZIRLO tubes including Optimized ZIRLOTM High Performance Cladding Material and other variants.

Each standard fuel rod contains a column of enriched U0 2 fuel pellets. The pellets are pressed and sintered and are dished on both ends. Gadolinia bearing fuel rods, when part of the fuel assembly design, contain UOi-Gd 2 0 3 fuel pellets (see Section S3.3.4). IFBA Bearing fuel rods, when part of the fuel assembly design, contains a thin coating of zirconium diboride (ZrB 2) coating on the pellet cylindrical surface. In Reference 2, the different fuel designs used at,Prairie Island were analyzed to determine the limiting fuel assembly design with respect to criticality safety. The limiting fuel assembly design was used to develop the isotopic number densities and develop bumup requirements.

For this supplement analysis, the 422V+ fuel design will be the only design considered.

This is because the 422V+ fuel design is the current fuel design and there are no plans to transition to another fuel type in the foreseeable future. This fuel design currently utilizes Gadolinia bearing fuel rods and this supplemental analysis evaluates the inclusion of IFBA Bearing fuel rods. Table S3-l contains fuel assembly specifications of the 422V+ fuel design.

Table S3-2 includes the actual and modeled annular blanket details for 422V+ fuel. Note that all fuel rods except Gadolinia bearing fuel rods have annular blankets.

Because Gadolinia is conservatively excluded from depletion and reactivity calculations, al fuel rods are assumed to have annular blankets.

2. S3.2.1 Fuel Storage Cell & Rack Modeling Assumptions See Section 3.2.1 of Reference
2. S3.3 FUEL DEPLETION PARAMETER SELECTION The analysis performed in Reference 2 was to support a proposed Extended Power Uprate (EPU) as well as address non-conservatisms that were present in the prior SFP analysis.

An EPU was never actually performed.

For conservatism, input to the SFP criticality analysis supporting Reference 2 assumed EPU conditions such that EPU operation is bounded. The input assumptions used to develop burnup requirements for the IFBA Bearing fuel evaluated in this supplement to Reference 2 are determined based on the planned operation for IFBA Bearing fuel. When considering final depletion input, bounding nominal parameters from planned IFBA Bearing fuel operation are used. S3.3.l Fuel Isotopic Generation The methodology for generating isotopic number densities to support burnup credit in this analysis is based on in-reactor operation (predicted for IFBA Bearing fuel) at bounding operating conditions.

See Section 3 .3 .1 of Reference 2 for additional general details. Burnable Poison Rod Assemblies (BPRAs ), present only in Cycles 1-4, were accounted for in the burnup requirements provided for fuel operated during Cycles 1-4 in Reference

2. With no intention to use BPRAs in the future, they are not evaluated for use with IFBA Bearing fuel. S3.3.2 Reactor Operation Parameters See Section 3.3.2 of Reference 2 for the reactor operation parameters introduction.

The nominalreactor operation parameter input used for the IFBA Bearing Fuel Depletion Analysis as well as a listing of the Reference 2 nominal operating parameter input for comparison are given in Table S3-5. 83.3.2.1 Soluble Boron Concentration See Section 3 .3 .2.1 of Reference

2. Increased loading associated with planned IFBA Bearing fuel design data leads to an overall increase in the cycle average soluble boron concentration since the initial hold down provided by IFBA is essentially lost early in its first cycle of operation.

As a result, for Prairie Island, the incorporation of IFBA into 422V+ fuel results in a higher cycle average soluble boron concentration from representative design data. Therefore, the soluble boron concentration selected for use in the depletion calculations is 1000 ppm to bound future operation.

WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 3-4 S3.3.2.2 Fuel Temperature Parameters important to determining fuel temperature are power level, moderator temperature, and coolant flow rate. As a result the incorporation of IFBA does not affect the methodology for determination of fuel temperature.

2. While it was conservative to not credit Gadolinia as indicated in Reference 2, it is not the same for IFBA Bearing fuel. IFBA burns out rapidly during operation, losing all reactivity hold down while at the same time hardening the neutron spectrum from the presence of 10 B. This leads to an increase in plutonium production, thus comparatively increasing assembly reactivity in the SFP. IFBA specifications are shown in Table S3-4.

2. [ S4.1.1 Target kerr Calculation Description See Section 4.1.1 of Reference
2. S4.1.2 Biases & Uncertainties Calculations . Reactivity biases are known variations between the real and analyzed system and their reactivity impact is added directly to the calculated k.,ff. Biases include the pool temperature and code validation biases as well as the fission product and actinide worth bias and the assembly envelope expansion bias. Uncertainties account for allowable variations within the real model whether they are physical (manufacturing tolerances), analytical (depletion) or measurement related (burnup measurement uncertainty).

84.1.2.1 Bias & Uncertainty Descriptions The following sections describe the biases and uncertainties that are accounted for in this analysis.

84.1.2.1.1 Manufacturing Tolerances See Section 4.1.2.1.1 of Reference 2 for additional details concerning manufacturing tolerances.

The fuel and rack tolerances that are considered in the analysis are: 1. Rack cell ID 2. Rack cell pitch 3. Rack cell wall thickness.

For this analysis, the fuel rod pitch has been incorporated into a new bias called the Assembly Envelope Expansion Bias, described in Section S4.1.2.1.9.

2. S4.1.2.1.4 Fission Product Worth and Actinide Bias 4-2 Methodology from Section 4.1.2.1.4 of Reference 2 was updated to incorporate the most recent information available concerning fission product worth (and actinide) validation.

This updated description is given here. In NUREG/CR-7109, "An Approach for Validating Actinide and Fission Product Burnup Credit Criticality Safety Analyses-Criticality (keff) Predictions" (Reference

4) presents findings that show for minor actinide and fission product nuclides for which adequate critical experiment data are not available, calculations of keff uncertainty due to nuclear data uncertainties can be used to establish a bounding bias value which was approximately 1.5% of the worth of the minor actinides and fission products for which adequate critical experiment data are not available.

The first effect is ciue to the change in isotopic inventory due to the larger pin pitch impacting the in core energy spectrum.

The second effect is the reactivity impact due to the potential pin pitch increase during storage. Because the grid springs and tabs which initially hold fuel rods in place relax during reactor operation, it is believed that both during and after operation, fuel is randomly oriented within each slightly expanded fuel pin cell in the grid.

S4.2 SOLUBLE BORON CREDIT In this analysis, boron credit calculations assume boron which is 19 .4 at% 10 B, because the is.otopic concentration of boron can vary as low as 19.4 at% 10 B. ; Table S4-6 presents the maximum keffvalues for normal conditions including biases and uncertainties and administrative margin at a boron concentration of 400 ppm at 19.4at% JOB. It is demonstrated that 400 ppm at 19.4 at% JOB is sufficient to comply with the acceptance criterion ofkeff:S:

0.95 under.all normal conditions (see Table S4-6). Addit'ionally, Table S4-6 data identify the limiting storage array and the soluble boron concentration required to meet a keff:S: 0.95.

2. The addition ofIFBA to 422 V+ fuel,will not negatively impact the change in reactivity seen from rodded operations, since the presence ofIFBA already hardens the spectrum early in depletion and operating rodded will have less overall additional impact as a result. Rodded operation for Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference 2 conclusions remain valid for IFBA Bearing fuel. However, final acceptance of rodded operations from Reference 1 determined that 100 MWd/MTU of rodded operations was acceptable.

WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 4-15 Since fresh IFBA Bearing fuel is less reactive than the same enrichment fresh non-IFBA Bearing fuel, conclusions in Reference 2 for the failed fuel pin basket and fuel rod storage canister remain applicable to IFBA Bearing fuel.

ANALYSIS RESULTS This section documents the results of the Prairie Island supplemental IFBA Bearing fuel criticality safety analysis.

Included in this section are the burnup requirements for the fuel storage arrays documented in this analysis in Section S3.7.l. This section also contains the restrictions placed on the various storage arrays such as placement of non-fuel items and an of normal SFP activities which are bounded by this analysis.

SS.l BURNUP REQUIREMENTS

& RESTRICTIONS ON STORAGE ARRAYS Assembly storage is controlled through the storage arrays defined in Section S3.7. l. An array can only be populated by assemblies of the fuel category defined in the array definition or a lower reactivity array. Fuel categories are defined by assembly burnup, enrichment and decay time as provided by Table S5-2 through Table S5-11, with the exception of Fuel Category 1 assemblies.

Fuel Category 1 assemblies are defined in the notes to Table S5-l. Fuel Category 7 from Reference 2 (consolidated rod storage) is not permitted with IFBA Bearing fuel.

Fuel Categories Ranked by Reactivity Fuel Category 1 High Reactivity Fuel Category 2 Fuel Category 3 Fuel Category 4 Fuel Category 5 Fuel Category 6 Low Reactivity Notes: 1. Fuel categories are ranked in order of decreasing reactivity, e.g., Fuel Category 2 is less reactive than Fuel Category 1, etc. 2. Fuel Category 1 is fuel up to 5.0 wt% 235 U; no bumup is required.

3. Fuel Categories 2 through 6 are determined from the coefficients provided.

Array C containing Fuel Category 1 assemblies is not explicitly analyzed in this supplemental report. However, Fuel Category 1 from Reference 2 will bound the same enrichment IFBA Bearing fuel. This is because the same amount of fresh fuel of the same type with integral absorber will remain less reactive than fresh fuel without integral absorber.

Since no burnup is required for 5.0 wt% 235 U for Fuel Category 1 assemblies from Reference 2, no analysis is necessary.

Note that in the burnup coefficient requirement tables, there is an enrichment range given for the Burnup Requirement Coefficients.

The upper bound of the range for the burnup requirement coefficients (5.0 wt% 235 U) cannot be exceeded.

However,

  • enrichments below the lower bound may be used. Negative values obtained from such usage can be treated as a requirement of 0 GWd/MTU, while storing fuel based on positive burnup requirements generated below the low end of the enrichment range is conservative.

2. S5.2 RODDED OPERATION Prairie Island has experienced load follow operation in the past as described in Section 4.3 of Reference
2. The addition ofIFBA to 422 V+ fuel will not negatively impact the change.in reactivity seen from rodded operations as discussed in Section S4.3; therefore rodded operations conclusions from Reference 2 indicating up to .1000 MW d/MTU of rodded operations remain valid. Howeyer, as a result of the commitments defined Reference 1, if an IFBA Bearing fuel assembly experiences more than 100 MWd/MTU of core average full-power rodded operation, the bumup of the assembly experienced while rodded will not be credited.

2. S5.5 SOLUBLE BORON CREDIT Soluble boron is credited in the Prairie Island SFP to keep k.,ff :'S 0.95 under all normal and credible accident scenarios.

Under normal conditions, the requirement is 400 ppm of soluble boron. The boron dilution endpoint is greater than 400 ppm demonstrating that under the worst credible dilution event k.,ff is maintained at:::; 0.95. Under non-dilution accident conditions including a full pool misload of fresh fuel, 2030 ppm of soluble boron is required to ensure k.,ff:'S 0.95 which leaves significant margin to the proposed Technical Specification value of2500 ppm (analysis assumes 2400 ppm maximum with an inclusion of 100 ppm uncertainty).

WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 S6. BURNUP REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL FUEL NOT OPERATED.IN CYCLES 1-4 INCLUDING IFBA BEARING FUEL 6-1 Both this supplemental report and Reference 2 contain identical storage array descriptions, for which burnup requirements are determined for six fuel categories (seven for Reference 2). The design difference between the two analyses is the presence of IFBA within the fuel during depletion in this supplemental analysis.

In addition, the following updates were made:

  • Change in the fission product and actinide worth evaluation
  • Addition of the multiple misload analyses
  • Change in input of cycle average soluble boron during depletion from 900 ppm to 1000 ppm.
  • Usage of IFBA Bearing fuel specific input for axial burnup profile and moderator temperature profile input
  • Modeling of annular blanketed fuel as annular fuel instead of solid for both depletion and criticality calculations These storage arrays (A, B, C, D, E and G) are seen in Section S3. 7 .1, with fuel category descriptions (1 through 6) in Section S2.2. Storage Array F, containing Fuel Category 7 from Reference 2 is not evaluated for storage with IFBA Bearing fuel, although the acceptability of the Array A and Array F interface is confirmed.

A single set of conservative burnup requirement coefficients (curves) which bounds both IFBA Bearing fuel and Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference 2 is developed which remains conservative for all burnup requirements and remains conservative for all accident criterion.

This section discusses the process used to develop a single set of burn up coefficients considering the different bounding input used for Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference 2 and IFBA Bearing fuel and concludes with a single set of burn up coefficients for storage of all fuel operated after cycles 1-4, including IFBA Bearing fuel. An assessment of the applicability of the accident analysis is also given. S6.1 IMPACT OF ECCENTRIC POSITIONING AND ASSEMBLY ENVELOPE EXPANSION BIAS METHODOLOGY CHANGE TO REFERENCE 2 BURNUP REQUIREMENTS While design input for Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference 2 and for IFBA Bearing fuel evaluated in this report can differ, to utilize a single set of burnup requirement coefficients, the bias and uncertainty data should be consistent.

As a result, the reactivity impact of the updated eccentric positioning methodology and introducing the assembly envelope expansion bias methodology is determined for Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference

2. S6.1.1 Updated Eccentric Positioning Methodology Reference 2 Reactivity Impact The modeling methodology from Reference 2 was updated to determine the eccentric positioning reactivity impact as discussed in Section S4. l .2. l .6 for Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 from Reference
2. Table S6-1 shows the reactivity worth from the original Reference 2 determined impact and the WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 updated impact. Recall that the updated impact is incorporated as a bias while the original Reference 2 impact was incorporated as an uncertainty.

Both Array G and Array D contain Category 5 fuel, with evaluated burnup limits for Array G bounding.

Array D max fresh enrichment was determined to be 1.75 wt% 235 U. For Array G values to be bounding at all enrichments for Fuel Category 5, the fresh max fresh enrichment was set to 1.75 wt% 235 U. WCAP-17400-NP September 2017 Supplement 1, Revision 2 a,c WESTINGHOUSE NON-PROPRIETARY CLASS 3 6-3 S6.1.3 Final Combined Storage (Burnup) Requirements Bumup requirements are updated from Reference 2 as a result of the change in Eccentric Positioning methodology and the incorporation of the Assembly Envelope Expansion Bias, including any change to the burnup measurement and depletion uncertainty because they are functions of the final burnup storage limits. Combined bumup requirements coefficients and example bumup requirements are generated as the higher of the burn up requirements between the updated Reference 2 bumup requirements and the IFBA Bearing fuel burnup requirements from Section S5.1.1 and are given in Table S6-3 through Table S6-12.

Additionally, input requirements for the misload accident are updated to incorporate a multiple mis load, which increases conservatism.

Usage of isotopics which result in a harder spectrum (IFBA Bearing fuel) is conservative over WCAP-17400 isotopics for a misload since boron worth will be reduced for harder spectrum systems.

Less finely spaced checks were performed for the soluble boron credit calculations supporting Reference 2, contributing to small differences although the overall conservatism of the soluble boron requirements documented in

  • Reference 2 is ma.intained.

The addition of the multiple mis load accidents and the increased technical . specification limit ensure that if 400 ppm of soluble boron is credited for normal operation and 2030 ppm of soluble boron for accident conditions, the combined fuel bumup requirement coefficients can be appropriately used for all Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 including IFBA Bearing fuel. The 2030 ppm of soluble boron determined for multiple misloads was determined for all fresh fuel such that updated depletion input is not necessary and this value is accurate for both IFBA Bearing and non-IFBf\

Bearing fuel. *S6.3.4 Comparison Conclusions A set of bounding bum up requirement coefficients was developed based on the Reference 2 bum up requirements updated to incorporate eccentric positioning as a bias and the assembly envelope expansion bias and IFBA Bearing fuel bl1mup requirements under which all fuel expected for storage at Prairie Island can be stored (with the exception of fuel operated in Cycles 1-4 which is covered in Reference 2). Accident and interface conditions have been reviewed and reanalyzed when necessary, including the incorporation of a full pool assembly misload which can be accommodated with significant soluble boron margin remaining.

No impact to the normal conditions assessment has been found. The Array A to Array F interface condition was reanalyzed and shown to be acceptable for IFBA bearing fuel and for .Fuel Not Operated in Cycles 1-4 in Reference
