attachment to 16$ -00612-JGH/LJM ATTACHMENT PVNGS steady state vibration test program consisted of obtaining vibration measure-ments in the following manner:

1) Preselected areas
2) areas where there appeared to be vibration and
3) areas randomly selected where measurements could be taken without disturbing the configuration of the pipe (i.e.,

removing the insulation etc.).

These vibration measurements were compared to an allowable screening cri-teria of 2.5 in/sec. velocity.

The allowable screening velocity is based upon ANSI/ASME OM-3-1982 where C C4 x 3.64 x 10 (0.8 SEL) 1 4 Vallowable C2K With C1 0 50 C2 2

1 K2 = 2.0 C3

=

13 C4 = 1.0 SEL = 4(20,000) 6

.2 Where V

= in/Sec and SEL (endurance stress" at 10 cycles)

= lb/in allowable Whenever the allowable screening velocity is

exceeded, additional measurements are taken which include displacemen't versus time'races.

The deflection serves as design input to the respective piping computer model.

The resulting generate stresses caused by the imposed deflection is then compared to one half of the endurance limit.

An engineering evaluation was performed resulting with no cases exhibiting stress level larger than one half the endurance limit (10,000 psi) for all cases t at exceeded the allowable screening velocity.
