DPR-58 and DPR-74 EQUIPMENT ENVIRONMENTAL QUALIFICATION PROGRAM1 CALCULATION OF SPECIFIED RADIATION DOSES
" Mr. Harold R. Denton, Director Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D.C.
20555
Dear Mr. Denton:
This letter responds to Mr. S. A. Varga's letter dated May 2,
- 1983, which requested additional information on the environmental qualifica-tion program for electric equipment important to safety at the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant Unit Nos.
1 and 2.
More specifically, Mr. S. A.
Varga requested that we provide a reference for the assumptions and methodology used in estimating post-accident radiation environments for equipment items of concern.
Furthermore, we were requested to include a description of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant containment type and a discussion regarding the, source terms which have been used in the qualification program.
Attachment 1 to this letter provides a general description of the ice condenser reactor containment system utilized by the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.
Please note that the Final Safety Analysis Report for our facility contains additional information which we have not included in this abbreviated description.
Attachment 2 to this letter addresses the basic methodology used in calculating radiation environments both inside and outside the ice condenser containment.
In general, we utilize a computer code which calculates gamma and beta doses due to a cylindrical source which is modeled as a set of line sources.
Versions of this code (e.g.,
NSLSHL3 and SHL1GG) have been used in a number of applications, such as calculating equipment radiation doses for equipment items which are near the recirculation flow path piping systems following a Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA).
We have also applied this methodology to airborne and submerged source term dose calculations for many components inside containment.
8311110065 831103 PDR *DOCK 05000315 P
Mr. Harold R..
on AEP:NRC:0578I The application of this methodology to equipment items inside containment is described in additional detail in Attachment 3 to this letter.
That attachment provides information on the assumed source term (comprised of fifty-four radioisotopes),
the studies which led to the selection of bounding accumulated dose values as a function of time for components inside containment (both above and below. the containment flood-up level), and sample calculations.
Attachment 4 to this letter presents the assumptions which led to similar bounding accumulated dose values as a function of time for components outside containment.
It is noted that the computer code which was used in the outside containment studies formed the basis for the computer code utilized in our work on equipment within containment.
The methodology employed by each of these codes is, however, similar enough to ensure that no appreciable differences exist between the basic
'alculational,methods used in calculating radiation doses either inside or outside containment.
The results of sample calculations are also included in Attachment 4 for numerous equipment items located near recirculation flow paths in a post-LOCA environment.
It should be noted that we have not enclosed calculations for every equipment item identified in response to either IE Bulletin No.79-01B or 10 CFR 50.49.
Rather, this submittal is intended to provide your staff with an understanding of the basic methodology and assumptions which are used in determining environmental qualification radiation specification doses for many electric equipment items.
We also note that page 2-2 of Attachment 2 discusses certain differences between the specification doses presented in Attachments' and 4 of this submittal and the specification doses listed on the System Component Evaluation Worksheets (SCEW sheets) presented in Attachments 4 and 5 to our letter No. AEP:NRC:0578B, dated June ll, 1982.
The reasons for these differences are also described in Attachment 2 to this submittal.
Since the specification doses for many electric equipment items were revised during the process of preparation of this letter, we have not yet had time to apply our quality assurance procedures to the new calculational results.
A quality assurance review of these results and an ongoing review of the radiation specification doses for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant will be conducted following transmittal of this submittal.
If these reviews uncover the need for any additional changes, we will advise you of those changes by separate letter.
This document has been prepared following Corporate Procedures which incorporate a reasonable set of controls to ensure its accuracy and completeness prior to signature by the undersigned.
Very truly yours, MPA/dam cc:

ATTACHMENT 1 TO AEP:NRC:OS78I GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF ICE CONDENSER CONTAINMENT DONALD C.
COOK NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT NOS. l AND 2
1-2 General Description Of Ice Condenser Containment The ice condenser reactor containment system is divided into three major compartments the reactor coolant system or lower compartment, the upper compartment, and the ice condenser compartment.
Figures l-l through 1-3 present the general boundaries of these compartments.
These Figures also show the dead-ended compartments within containment whose air volumes are not displaced by steam into the upper compartment during a Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA).
The lower compartment completely encloses the reactor coolant system equipment and associated auxiliary systems equipment.
The upper compartment contains the refueling canal, refueling equipment, and the polar crane which is used during refueling and maintenance operations.,
The upper and lower compartments are separated by a low leakage barrier (e.g., the operating deck) to minimum steam bypass between the compartments during a LOCA.
The dead-ended volumes are adjacent to the lower compartment and include the auxiliary pipe tunnel, the accumulator compartments, and the instrument room.
The ice condenser compartment, which contains the borated ice provided to quench the energy released during a LOCA< is in the form of a completely enclosed and refrigerated annular compartment which is located radially between the reactor coolant system compartment and the outer wall of the containment and, in elevation, generally above the operating deck.
That portion of the ice condenser which extends into the lower compartment has a series of hinged doors exposed to the atmosphere of the lower containment compartment.
For normal plant operation,'hese doors are designed to remain closed.
At the top of the ice condenser is another set of doors exposed to the atmosphere of the upper containment compartment.
These doors are also de'signed to remain closed during normal operation.
The ice bed is held within the ice condenser in baskets arranged to promote heat transfer from steam to ice should the condenser be needed to serve its function.
A refrigeration system maintains the ice in the solid state.
Suitable insulation
~
'urrounding the ice condenser compartment minimizes heat transfer to the ice condenser enclosure.
In the event of a Design Basis Accident (DBA) such as a
LOCA or a Main Steam Line Break (MSLB) within containment, the door panels located below the operating deck open due to the pressure rise in the lower compartment.
This allows air and steam to flow from the lower compartment into the ice condenser.
The resulting buildup of pressure in the ice condenser causes the door panels at the top of the condenser to open, allowing for air flow into the upper compartment.
The steam condenses quickly upon entering the ice condenser, thus limiting the peak pressure in the containment building.
The major factor which sets the peak pressure reached within containment as a result of a DBA is the compression of air displaced 'by steam as it flows from the lower and ice condenser compartments to the upper compartment.
Therefore, since the peak pressure is related to the ratio of volumes for the various containment compartments, judicious selection of compartment volumes during the containment design process can alter the predicted peak pressure until any desired value is achieved.
1-3 It is also noted that condensation of steam within the ice condenser causes a pressure differential between the upper and lower compartments which results in a continual flow of steam from the lower compartment to the condensing surface of the ice.
This helps reduce the time that the containment is at elevated pressure.
Performance Criteria For The Ice Condenser Containment The performance of the ice condenser containment is demonstrated by results and analysis of ice condenser tests performed on a full-scale section test at the Westinghouse Waltz Mill Site.
These tests confirmed the ability of the ice condenser to perform satisfactorily over a wide range of conditions, exceeding the range of conditions that might be experienced in an accident inside the containment building.
The ice condenser containment performance has been evaluated by testing the effect of certain important parameters.
A partial list of parameters tested include blowdown rate, blowdown energy, deck leakage, compression ratio, drain performance, ice condenser hydraulic diameter, dead-ended
- volumes, and long term performance.
Analytic models have been developed to correlate. and supplement these test results in the evaluation of the containment design.
The results indicate that the analytic models are conservative and that the performance of the ice condenser containment is predictable relative to these variables.
The energy absorption capacity of the ice condenser is at least twice that required to absorb all of the energy that can be released during the "initial blowdown phase of the reactor coolant system for all reactor coolant pipe break sizes up to and including the hypothetical double-ended severance of the reactor coolant piping, or for any steam system pipe break size up to and including the hypothetical severance of the main steam line inside containment, without exceeding the containment design pressure.
Steam bypass of the ice condenser during a postulated reactor coolant system blowdown is to be avoided.
The operating deck and any other leakage paths between the lower and upper compartments are reasonably sealed to limit bypass steam flow to a low value previously approved during the design phase of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant containment design process.
For the containment, the analysis considered bypass area as composed of two parts -- a conservatively assumed leakage area around the various hatches in the operating deck, and a known leakage area through the deck drainage holes for containment
- spray, located at the bottom of the refueling canal.
Flow distribution to the ice condenser for any reactor coolant system pipe rupture that opens the ice condenser lower inlet doors, up to and including the hypothetical double-ended severance case, is limited such that the maximum energy input into any section of the ice condenser does not exceed its design capability.
The door port flow resistance and size provides for flow distribution for breaks that fully open the inlet doors.
For breaks that only partially open the inlet doors to the ice condenser, the lower inlet doors act to proportion flow into the ice bed to limit maldistribution effects.
Analysis of the ice condenser reactor containment performance has shown that the ice condenser alone is capable of preventing containment overpressure during the initial blowdown of the reactor coolant system or secondary side system within containment, such that containment spray is not a requirement for overpressure protection.
However, extremely small blowdown rates would not generate a differential pressure'ufficient to open the ice condenser lower inlet doors.
In this case, the energy release (even at an assumed small rate) would eventually require containment spray operation to prevent overpressure.
Another case has been examined where it is postulated that a Small Break LOCA (SBLOCA) precedes a larger break accident.
The larger break accident is assumed to occur before all of the coolant energy is released by the SBLOCA (i.e.,
a double accident).
During the SBLOCA
- blowdown, some quantity of steam and air will bypass the ice condenser and enter the upper compartment via leakage through the operating deck.
The important design requirement for the case of the double accident is that the amount of steam leakage into the upper compartment be limited during the SBLOCA phase of the double accident so that only a small increase in final peak pressure results for the second part of the double accident.
In general, the resultant peak pressure will be a function of both break sizes, the time between breaks, and the steam bypass during both phases of'the double accident.
The containment spray system is used to limit the partial pressure of steam in the upper compartment due to deck bypass.
The key elements which determine the double accident performance of the ice condenser are the lower inlet
- doors, which open at low differential pressure to admit steam to the ice condenser and limit bypass flow of steam to the upper compartment<
and the containment sprays which condense the bypass flow of steam and limit the partial pressure of steam in the upper compartment to a low value.
The containment spray set point actuation pressure has been set at, 3
psig to limit steam partial pressure to less than 2 psia in the upper "compartment for the double accident case.
After a LOCA, the ice condenser has sufficient remaining heat absorption capacity such that, together with the containment spray
- system, subsequent assumed heat loads are absorbed without exceeding the containment"design pressure.
The subsequent, heat loads considered include reactor core and coolant system stored heat, residual heat, substantial margin for an undefined additional energy release, and consideration of steam generators as active heat sources.
The primary purpose of the containment spray system is to spray cool water into the containment atmosphere in the event of a LOCA>
thereby ensuring that containment pressure cannot exceed the containment design pressure.
Protection is afforded for all pipe break sizes up to and including the hypothetical instantaneous circumferential rupture of a reactor coolant pipe.
Adequate containment heat removal capability for the ice condenser containment is provided by two separate full capacity containment spray systems.
The containment spray system is designed based on the conservative assumption that the core residual heat. is continuously released to the containment as steam, eventually melting all ice in the ice condenser.
The heat removal capability of each spray system is sized to keep the containment pressure below design pressure after all the ice has melted and residual heat generated steam continues to enter the containment.
1-5 Additional information on the design and function of the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant ice condenser containment can be found in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR).
Xn particular, the FSAR provides a
copious amount of information on structural adequacy during seismic
- events, containment integrity during postulated blowdowns of the primary and secondary coolant systems, details regarding how containment isolation is achieved during DBAs, etc.

ATTACHMENT 2 TO AEP:NRC:0578I DESCRIPTION OF SHIELDING CODE FOR CYLINDRICAL SOURCES DONALD C COOK NUCLEAR PLANT UNIT NOS.
1 AND 2

)
UI
2-2 This attachment contains a copy of a user's manual for a computer program entitled "SHLlGG".
SHLlGG was programmed,
- debugged, benchmarked, and utilized in the electric equipment environmental qualification program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant Unit Nos.
1 and 2 by personnel of the American Electric Power Service Corporation.
The user 's manual describes in detail the basic models which SHLlGG uses in computing gamma and/or beta doses at an observer/detector located inside a cylindrical source, outside a cylindrical source, or in intervening shields (including an assumed pipe wall if a pipe containing recirculating sump fluid in the recirculation phase of a LOCA is the assumed cylindrical source).
In general, SHLlGG may be used for applications in which the dose rate at an observer is desired and the geometry of the source is other than a cylinder.
More specifically, for the case of equipment radiation qualification calculations, the subcompartments of the ice condenser containment were modeled as cylindrical sources within which equipment (i.e., observer/detector) was located.
Selections for subcompartment cyclindrical model dimensions (e.g.,
length or height and radius of an equivalent cylinder for each subcompartment) are described in more detail in Attachment 3 to this letter.
Although the user's manual correctly describes the SHL1GG program in use today, we have made minor modifications to the actual coding since the time the user's manual was issued.
In particular, a
calculational error was discovered in late 1982 with regard to the utilization of a Simpson's Rule 'approximation for the evaluation of the Sievert Integral (a factor in the dose rate equation).
This has been corrected and taken into account in computing the beta attenuation factors presented in Attachment 3 to this submittal.
The specified doses for equipment inside containment, as given in Attachment 3 to this submittal, are therefore slightly different than those presented in Attachments 4 and 5 to our letter No. AEP:NRC:0578B, dated June 11, 1982.
Furthermore, as noted in Attachment 4 to this letter, SHL1GG was not used in computing radiation doses for equipment, items outside containment.
- Rather, a computer code entitled "NSLSHL3" was used in those calculations.
NSLSHL3 is, in effect, an earlier version of SHLlGG, and thus utilized much of the same methodology.
We note, however, that review of the earlier work on equipment outside containment has indicated that some of the NSLSHL3 output was misinterpreted in computing radiation doses (i.e.,
doses from a 14" outside diameter pipe were used for some equipment items, rather than the limiting doses from an 8.625" outside diameter pipe).
The specified doses for some equipment items outside containment, as given in Attachment 4 to this submittal, are therefore higher than those presented in Attachments 4 and 5 to our letter No. AEP:NRC:0578B, dated June ll, 1982.
The radiation qualification doses for electric equipment, important to safety (both inside and outside containment) are undergoing continual review for the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant.

SHLIGG:
A Shieldin Code for C lindrical Sources Abstract SHLlGG calculates dose rate and time integrated dose due to a cylin-drical pipe contai.'ni.ng a
gamma and/or beta source.
The source is distributed in water,
- steam, a steam-water mixture, or air.
Gamma dose is calculated inside the pi.pe, outside the pipe, or in the pipe wall.
Beta dose is only calculated inside the pipe; beta dose beyond the pipe wall inner surface is expected to be small compared to the corresponding gamma dose.
For beta dose i,ns i de the pipe, SHLIGG decides whether the sour ce may be treated as an infinite cloud for each beta particle.
If'so, infinite cloud results are appli.ed.
I'f not, SHLIGG divides the source into a number of prismati.c elements.
Each element is treated as a line source, and a dose rate i.s calculated.
The indivi'dual dose rates are summed to produce a total dose rate for the entire source..
Beta and gamma doses are tabulated separately.
For gammas, buildup in the source, pipe wall, shield, and surrounding air is accounted for.
II.
Introduction SHL1GG is a FORTRAN IV computer program for calculating dose rate due to a cylindrical pipe containing a
gamma and/or beta source.
The source is distributed in water,
- steam, a steam-water mixture, or air.
Gamma dose is calculated inside the pipe, outside the pipe, or in the pipe wall.
Beta dose is only calculated inside the pipe; beta dose beyond the pipe wall inner surface is expected to be small compared to corresponding gamma dose.
A For gamma dose outsi'de..the
- pipe, a number of shields may be present I
between the source and observer.
The shields must be parallel to the cylinder axis and perpendicular to the perpendicular line joining the observer and this axis.
The shi,elds must'be large enough that the observer is fully shielded
(.ie.,
a line drawn from an arbitrary source point to the observer must pass through the shields);
In all cases, self-shielding of the source is considered.
Shielding due to the pipe 'wall is considered where appropriate.
Buildup of gamma flux in the source, and, i'f appropr iate, in the pipe wall, shields, and surrounding air is accounted for using a Taylor buildup factor (Reference 3, p. 415).
For beta dose inside the pipe, SHL1GG decides whether the source may be treated as an infinite cloud.'his decision is made for each individual beta source.
If so, a dose for that particular beta is immediately calculated using infinite cloud formulation.
If not, the source is divided into
~
prismatic elements.
Each element has sectors of two concentric cylinders and two radial planes forming its boundaries.
The division is done uniformly; the user specifies the number of radial divisions and the number of angular divisions.
Each prismatic element is treated as a line source.
Gamma dose rates are calculated for individual elements for each energy and summed to obtain total gamma dose rate.
Beta dose rate is calculated, where appropriate
(,ie.,
when dose inside the pipe is desired and the source may not be treated as an infinite cloud), in a similar manner for individual beta particles and summed (each beta parti'cle has a given energy probability density, maximum
- energy, and average energy).
Formulation for beta attenuation analogous to that for gamma attenuation is used as described in Reference 1.
For both beta and gamma doses relaxation length is based on that portion of the per-
~
pendicular distance from the particular prismatic element to the observer passing through each material.
E l
Dose rate is initially obtained at time zero.'Dose:rate at any later ti'me step is obtained by decaying the dose rate due to each isotope at the previous time step by the amount the respective isotope decays in the time e
interval.
I'n addition, time integrated dose is calculated at each time step.
A simple exponential decay i's assumed; dose due to product isotopes is neglected.
According to Reference 2, this effect may be accounted for by multiplying the above doses by 1.3.
Additional work has shown that this factor is valid for gamma dose, Gut not necessarily for beta dose (Reference 13).
III. Model A.
~Geometr The geometry for the observer/detector point inside the pipe, inside the pipe wall, and outside the pipe is shown in Figures 1 to 3'espectively.
For the case of the observer/detector outside the pipe, shields may be present and are perpendicular to line CO.
All remaining space outside the pipe is assumed to be filled with air.
The jt" prismatic element is shown, at location (.R.,o.).
For a' J

Beta Oose Beta dose is calculated inside the pipe only; beta dose beyond the pipe wall inner surface is expected to be small compared to corresponding gas+a dose.
Seta dose calculation may be formulated analogously to gamma dose cal-culation (Reference 1, pp. 625-629).
This is due to the particular analytical forms of beta spectra and electron scattering and absorption cross sections.
Beta dose is calculated as in equation (1).

Relative to the observer, the source looks like an i.'nfi.nit.e medium.
The infinite cloud model as used here has meaning only for the observer poi.nt inside the source.
The criterion for treating the source as an infinite cloud is that a
beam of beta particles of the'respective average energy emitted at the observer point must be reduced'to 1% of its initial intensity over the shortest distance between the'bserver and the pipe walI.
In this case con-tributions to the beta dose'at the observer point due to source points beyond this di:stance are neg1 igi51e.

1'.
Deca of Isoto es and Inte rated Dose Simple exponential decay is assumed; dose due to product isotope is neglected.
According to Reference 2, this effect may be accounted for by multiplying the obtained doses by 1.3.
It is shown in Reference 13 that this is valid for gamma
- dose, but not necessarily for beta dose.
For each isotope, a decay constant must be input.
Activity, activity concentration, gamma dose for a given energy, and beta'dose for given energy at time t + ht are obtained from corresponding quantities at time t via (24) where c i,s the decay-constant, and X is any of the above four quantities.
Integrated beta or gamma dose for a given energy at time t +At is obtained from where Y is i.ntegrated dose and X is dose rate for the respective gamma or beta energy.

Code Descri tion and 0 tions SHLlGG consists of a main program and the ll subroutines
- P01, PDZ,
- PD3, DSR, F, GXP,'BLDPF,
- ABSRP, SNTP, BLOUP, and ORY (in addition, there is a block data subroutine that initializes common block 83; this block is common to HAIN, P01, POZ and PD3).
The main program reads and prints input, calcu-lates decay of isotopes and dose rates over time, calculates integrated
- dose, and summarizes individual and total doses at each time by energy or isotope as desi.red by the user.
PD1 calculates gamma dose rate outside the pipe or inside the pipe wall at time zero for each gamma energy.
P02 calculates gamma dose rate in-side the pipe at ti'me zero for each gamma energy.
P03 calculates beta dose rate inside the pipe at time zero for each beta average energy.

F(THETA,B). evaluates.
the Si'evert integral function F(o,b).
BLDPF(MATH,EO,Y, YL,YT) and BLDUP(MATH,B,Y,YL,YT,X)calculate buildup factor for material" MATH, di'mensionless length 8, energy EO and quality X
(in the case of steam-water mixtures).
Y, YL, and YT are the quantities Ak, o( k, and fk respectively i'n equation (11); these depend only on energy (and not on 8).
The calculation of buildup factor is divided into a por-tion which depends only on energy (BLDPF) and a portion which r
depends on distance traveled and energy (BLDUP).
Execution time is reduced by calling BLDPF only once for each gamma energy.
This portion of the calculation need not be done for each source element.
BLDUP must be called once for each gamma energy and source element.
ABSRP(MATH,EO) evaluates gamma +
for material MATH and energy EO.
DRV(AIS,DTT,NI'SOT,FCTD) evaluates fractions by which istotpes decay over the given time step (ie., evaluates p

The source,
- pipe, and shield materials are limni.ted to water, air, iron (represents all steels}; concrete, and lead.
Water includes steam and steam-water mixtures; quality must be input (steam, x
= 1; water, x = 0; steam-water mi.xture, 0< x< 1J.
When dose outside the pipe is calculated, the pipe is assumed to be surrounded by air (except at shield locations).
This air need not have the same density as a possible air source material.
At 4.'ach time step, the code will print out dose rate and cumulative dose for each individual beta average energy and gamma energy, totals for each isotope, or totals for all isotopes.
A different option may be in effect in each print interval.
A print interval is defined as a period of time with constant time step size and print option.
There may be many print intervals, each with its own time step size and print option.
At each time step, total activity and activity concentration, total dose rate and integrated
- dose, and ratio of activity concentration to dose rate are always printed.
Beta and gamma doses are always printed spearately, as gamma doses are given in R/HR and beta doses are given in RADS/HR.
When dose is calculated inside the pipe, the user may specify beta dose is to be evaluated.
Beta dose is calculated inside the pipe only.
The code may be run under two options.
With one option a single. case is run, while with the other option a number of cases are run.
A case is defined as a single problem with a specified set of physical and geometrical parameters.
For the former option, any number of shields may be present.
For the latter option, a single shield is present, and the shield thickness is incremented by a given amount for each case.
The initial thickness may be zero (if no shield is present in the first case).
In all cases, the user must insure that the shield is thin enough to fit between the pipe and the observer (if not, an error message is printed out and execution stops).
H All calculations are done in double precision.

Criteria for Choosin NRAD and NANGL NRAD and NANGL must be chosen such that, for the lowest energy gamma and beta, there is not appreciable attenuation over the extent of any element.
This is because each element is treated as a line source concentrated at the element center and shielded by the element source I
material.
If there is appreciable attenuation, lumping will cause radi-ation from portions of the element closest to the observer to be attenuated more than it should be.
Resulting doses calculated will be non-conservative.
The largest elements will be at the periphery.
They will be of extent (26a)
(26b) where:
b,s
= arc length subtended by element mid-section and other quantities are defined in Figures 1-3.
For attenuation to be small over the extent of an element (27a) chS
<~ I (27b) where: Q is the largest attenuation coefficient, corresponding to the smallest gamma and/or beta energy.
Substituting (26) into (27) gives
hid.AP>>
b (28a)
(28b) where b
= R.g(
max
, i max When beta doses are calculated, g for betas will generally max be the controlling factor, because beta attenuation is much greater than gamma attenuation.
However, in many cases beta attenuation will be so large that infinite cloud results will apply; then gamma attentuation will be the controlling factor.
The user should choose NRAD and NANGL based on (28) and the particular beta and gamma energies input.
It is sufficient that the inequalities be satisfied by a factor of 10.
It is also necessary that the element size be small compared to the distance from the element to the observer.
This requirement is significant when an observer is close to a large source.
As an example, assume a water source and 0. 1 t<eV smallest energy gamma.
This is the lowest gamma energy the code will distinguish; is taken as a constant equal to ~ at 0. 1 MeV (=0.167 cm
) for lower engeries.
Y'his is conservative.
Assume beta dose is not calculated.
Then

6-While satisfying (28) is sufficient for calculated doses to be conservative, it is not necessary.
In particular, for the observer at the center of the pipe, NANGL can be 1 with no loss of accuracy, due to symmetry.
For, the observer slightly off center, (28b) need not be satisfied.
For doses outside the pipe or in the pipe wall, (28a) and (28b) should both be satisfied.

The isotopes and activities are taken from Reference 10, Table 5-29-,
and Reference ll, Appendix A, Table A.2-1.
For Reference 10 activities, a
U mass of 8.86xl0 Kg is used (see Section VIII and Reference 11, Chapter 3 (Unit 1), Table 3.2.3-1).
In cases where the two references conflict, Reference 10 activities are used.
Decay con-
- stants, gamma and beta energies, and fractions of total isotope activity
.comprising each energy are given in Reference 12 (this is indicated in the first two input lines).
It is assumed that lOOX of,the noble gases, 50K of the iodines, and lX of the particulates are released into volume SYSVOM.
These items constitute the bulk of the input.
With the exception of the fractional releases, these items generally do not change from run to run.
Remaining input items (lines 100-600 and 37200-37700 of NSLKCHR) must be input by the user for the desired case(s).

'III.'enchmark Case The beta and gamma dose rates inside a typical dry containment during the thirty day period following a LOCA are calculated by the code and compared with independently obtained results summarized in Reference 8, Appendix D (additional information is given in Reference 7, Appendix B.)
A reactor power of 3391 NWT is assumed.
The containment volume is 2.52 x 10 ft
= 7. 136 x 10 cm (Reference 7, p. B-2).
The containment 6
3 10 3
is modeled as an equivalent cylinder with height equal to inner diameter (Reference 8, p. D-7).
This gives an inner radius of 2248 cm and a.height of 4496 cm.
All remaining dimensions are taken from Figure A-2 of Reference 9.
The containment is assumed to be filled with air of density 1.293 x 10 g/cm The analysis in References 7 and 8 assumes the only fission products present are noble gases and iodines.
Both references assume that lOOX of the noble gases and 25K of the iodines are released into the con-tainment.
Total activities are given in Reference 10, Table 5-29, and Reference ll, Appendix A, Table A.2-1.
In cases where the two references conflict, Reference 10 activities are used.
For Reference 10 activities, a
U mass of 8.86 x 10 Kg is assumed.
This roughly corresponds to a
U02 mass of 216,600 ibm (Reference ll, Chapter 3 (Unit 1), Table 3.2.3-1).
Decay constants are given in Reference 12.
Gamma and beta energies, and fractions of total isotope activity comprising each energy are given in Reference 12.
The source is divided into 5 radial division and 18 angular divisions.
This may be shown to satisfy the criteria of section V. B.
For an air source, the maximum attenuation coefficient used by the code is (P/()
= 0.151 cm /g (see SUBROUTINE ABSRP listing).

Scaled code results and Reference 8 results are compared in Tables 3 and 4.
With the exception of the beta dose rate at t= 0 and t,=720 hrs (30 days),
scaled code results are higher than Reference 8 re-sults.

Version SHL3 An earlier version of the code, SHL3, has been used in several applications.
This version differs from SHL1 in that beta dose is calculated based on an infinite cloud source regardless of the cylinder size or beta energy.
For small cylinders or high energies this will be conservative.
ln addition, beta activity, energy, and dose input and output formats for SHL1 and SHL3 differ.
Run 9 reproduces case 1, run 1 using SHL3.
Comparison of runs 1.and 9 shows that SHL1 and SHL3 results for gamma dose are identical.
For beta dose (dose in water, run 9), run
- 9. is 0.3% larger.
This due to a constant in SUBROUTXNE PD3 of SHL3 being 0.3% larger than the corresponding constant in SHL1.
This error is insignificant, and doses inside a cylindrical source calculated by SHL3 are correct.
The purpose o'f this appendix is to verify SHL3 for previous applications.
SHL3 is not presently used.

Final Modifications of November 20, 1980 and 'December 16 1980 Several modifications were made to the main program.
These changes relate to branching around certain DO loops.
An additional CONTINUE statement was added immediately following each respective DO loop.
The branch around the loop was changed to a branch to this statement.
Previously, the branch was to the DO loop terminal state-ment.
This can have adverse effects in IBM FORTRAN.
All changes are labeled ll/20/80 in the updated source listing (run 10).
Previous numerical results are unaffected.
Effective December 16,
- 1980, the source member name is changed from NSLSHLl to SHLlGG.
This is accomplished by the attached run 12.
ATTACHMENT 3 TO AEP:NRC:0578I DESCRIPTION OF CALCULATIONALPROCEDURE USED IN DETERMINING RADIATION DOSES TO ELECTRZC UIPMENT INSIDE CONTAINMENT
3-2 Introduction In order to calculate the total integrated dose to selected electric equipment inside containment, the upper volume, lower volume, fan/accumulator rooms, pipe tunnel, instrument
- room, and total free volume were modeled into equivalent cylinders, based on volume information obtained from the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR), Appendix p.
The computer program SHL1GG,'escribed in Attachment 2 to this submittal, was then used with an appropriate source term to obtain the integrated doses and beta attenuation factors of interest.
These values were then applied to equipment specific calculations, based upon required operating times and the actual shielding installed at the plant.
Volume Nodalization For the overall containment, the total free volume's equivalent cylinder was determined to have a radius of 50.5 ft and a height of 145 ft (case 1).
Calculational results for this case are assumed to bound those for the upper volume, which was determined to be equivalent to a cylinder 50.5 ft in radius with a height of 84.4 ft.
Three models were developed to describe the lower volume.
First/
the annulus around the reactor cavity was treated as an equivalent cylinder with a radius of 17 ft and a height of 162 ft, into which airborne radiation is released (case 2).
A second approach which was deemed more likely to be conservative was to assume that the reactor cavity volume is a part of the lower volume.
This equivalent cylinder had a radius of 41.5 ft and a height of 40 ft, into which airborne radiation was released (case 3).
The third approach involved taking that portion of the lower volume which is expected to be submerged, and modeling it into an equivalent cylinder with a radius of 41.5 ft and a height of 18 ft (case 4).
With regard to the fan/accumulator rooms, they were modeled into equivalent cylinders of radius 10.5 ft and height 79 ft (case
- 5).
The results obtained for these cylinders were assumed to bound those for the instrument room
, which was determined to be equivalent to a cylinder of 10.5 ft in.radius and 67 ft in height.
The pipe tunnel was described as an equivalent cylinder of 7.5 ft in radius and 141 ft, in height.
Calculational results were obtained for the pipe tunnel both as if the tunnel had been flooded (case 6) and as if it had not been flooded (case 7).
For the earliest stages of a DBA>
a source term in air or an air-steam mixture,may be a more realistic assumption than that of instantaneous flooding.

3-3 Source Terms And Calculational Results Activities released into the containment for the assumed DBA were'valuated using values specified in Table 3-1.
This Table lists fifty-four (54) radioisotopes which have been identified as being characterisitic of the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant core.
This list was compiled from two sources -- the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant
- FSAR, Appendix 14A, and the Westinghouse Standard Information Package, "Radiation Analysis Manual:
Standard Plant Model 412," Revisi.on 3, dated November 1978.
Using Table 3-1, it was a simple task to calculate the activities released into containment for the assumed DBA.
Using NUREG-0588 as a
basis of reference, 100% of the core inventory of noble gases, 50% of the core inventory of radioiodines, and 1% of the core inventory of particulates was assumed to be released into the containment free volume after flood-up (e.g.,
1,157,408 ft ).,
These activities are presented in Table 3-2.
For submerged components, 50% of the core inventory of radioiodines and 1% of the core inventory of particulates was assumed to be distributed into approximately 715,500 gallons of water (assuming a
maximum flood-up elevation of 614 ').
Halogen plate-out on containment surfaces and.halogen removal by containment sprays and borated ice were not assumed for conservatism.
In order to examine radiation attenuation in concrete, SHL1GG was used to calculate the integrated gamma dose at the center, the inner
- edge, and the outer edge of a cylinder with an inner radius of 50.5 ft, an outer radius of 52 ft, and a height of 145 ft.
These calculations indicated that an 18" thickness of concrete (density
= 2.35 grams per cubic centimeter),
which is a typical concrete thickness between compartments, would attenuate all of the beta particles and a substantial portion of the gamma rays.
More specifically, integrated gamma doses were compared at various times between the three locations of'concern.
For the accumulated one-year
- dose, the value at the inner edge of the cylinder was approximately 52.0% that at the centerline of the cylinder, and the value at the outer edge of the cylinder was a mere 0.051% that at the centerline of the cylinder.
Therefore, it was concluded that, the dose contribution from one compartment would not have a significant effect on any adjacent compartments, and thus each compartment could be treated separately from the others.
For each of the nodalised volumes inside containment identified
- above, two runs were performed.
In the first of each set of runs, the observer (e.g., equipment item) was, assumed to be on the centerline of the cylinder of concern, midway between the cylinder's ends.
In the second run, the observer was located at the midplane of the cylinder at the inner edge of the compartment.
Although much data was collected from these runs, the results of only two are of particular concezn.
These cases az'e those which give the greatest accumulated doses as a function of time for airborne radiation and for a source in water.
More specifically, the greatest
l I
accumulated doses as a function of time for airborne sources are obtained from case 1 (e.g., using the total free volume of containment after flood-up and the source term given in Table 3-2, with the observer at the center of the cylinder).
Likewise< the greatest accumulated doses as a function of time for submerged sources are obtained from case 4, utilizing the flooded portion of the lower volume, again with.the observer at the centerline of the cylinder.
The accumulated gamma and beta doses for these cases are presented in Tables 3-3 and 3-4g respectively, where the gamma doses given in Roentgen by SHL1GG have been converted to Mrads.
'n order to correct the beta dose values given in Tables 3-3 and 3-4 for attenuation near an equipment item (due to housings,
- jackets, etc.), the percentage of accumulated surface beta dose that is attenuated by various thicknesses of three different materials was evaluated.
The result of this evaluation is presented in Tables 3-5 through 3-8.
Zt should be noted that this evaluation's source specific, relying upon the relative activities of the different isotopes and the energies of the various betas emitted.
A plication To The Equi ment uglification Process The results of the calculations described abov'e were applied to electrical components within containment through the following process:
(a) the equipment was identified as either being submerged or in an airborne source; (b) the applicable gross gamma and beta accumulated doses were obtained from Tables 3-3 or 3-4, as appropriate, corresponding to a time equal to or greater than the equipment required operating time; (c) the beta dose was adjusted for shielding effects, if any, utilizing Tables 3-5 through 3-Bg as appropriate>
and (d) the corrected gamma was added to the gross gamma to give the equipment specified post-accident dose.
The following provides examples of how this process was applied to a few categories of equipment:
a)
Category "A".
Cables and cable terminations above flood level were assumed at the center of the total free volume after containment flood-up.
The combined thickness of cable insulation and jacket is conservatively deemed to be 70 mils of unit density material.
Splicing material which protects the cable terminations is also in excess of 70 mils of unit density material.
Credit is taken, however, for only 70 mils of this material.

3-5 b)
Category "B".
Same as in category "A", except that component will be submerged post-accident in flood-up tubes (Kapton insulated wire) which have a wall thickness of 16 mil of steel.
Use Table 3-4 to obtain gross gamma and beta doses to the equipment.
This category covers Unit 1 SCEW sheets CI-ll and CI-12, and Unit 2 SCEW sheets CI-15 and CX-16.
c)
Category "C".
Similar to Category "A", except that the sum of cable insulation and jacket material is less than 70 mils.
This includes Unit 1 SCEW sheets CP>>4 (63 mils), CP-7 (45 mils), and CP-8 (60 mils}, and Unit 2 SCEW sheets CP-6 (63 mils), CP-9 (45 mils), and CP-10 (60 mils).
d)
Category "D".
Components are above flood level and are enclosed in steel enclosures greater *then 70 mils thick which do not permit free air circulation.
Use Table '3-3 and Table 3-6, assuming only 70 mils of steel.
This includes Unit 1 SCEW sheets F-l, LS-l, TC-2, TC-4, TC-16, TC-17, TP-3, V-2, and V-4, and Unit 2 SCEW sheets F-l, LS-l, TC-2, TC-4, TC-16, TP-3, V-2, and V-4.
e)
Category "E".
The electric hydrogen recombiner is above flood level, and beta attenuation is attributed to 10 mils of steel enclosure.
SCEW sheet H-1 (both Unit 1 and Unit 2).
f)
Category "F".
Cable terminations, inside stainless steel flood-up tubing (16 mils wall thickness) will be submerged and are assumed at the center of the lower volume.
No credit is taken for splicing material which protects the terminationsy however, credit for 10 mils of stainless steel is taken.
This category includes SCEW sheets TC-6, TI-3, and TP-1 (both Unit 1 and Unit 2).
g)
Category "G".
Submerged components, assumed at the center of the flooded lower volume.
No credit is taken for beta attenuation due to valve enclosures because they are not assumed to be watertight.
This category includes SCEW sheets EP-01, EP-02, TC-1, TC-3, TI-5, TI-8, TP-S, V-l, and V-5 (both Unit 1 and Unit 2).
Tables 3-9 and 3-10 present, for the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant Unit Nos.
1 and 2, respectively, the results of the calculations for the specific SCEN sheets noted above in categories "A" through "G".
Xt is noted that Unit 1 devices CX-1, CX-2, TC-2, and V-4, and Unit 2 devices TC-2 and V-4 are assumed to have an effective beta attenuation factor of 90%.
This factor is considered to be conservative since these devices are protected by either unit density material or steel in excess of 70 mils thickness.

4-2 Introduction In order to obtain bounding estimates for radiation doses to equipment located near pipes which carry fluid recirculated from the containment (for the purpose of long-term'post-LOCA heat removal),
radiation calculations were performed for a number of piping systems outside containment.
The results of these calculations and their application to the equipment qualification process are described in this attachment.
Piping Calculations The original piping calculations of concern were performed in April of 1980.
The calculations were performed using a computer program entitled "NSLSHL3" which modeled the source in a cylindrical pipe containing radioactive matex'ial as a set of line sources.
This code is, in effect, an earlier version of the SHLlGG code described in Attachment 2 to this submittal.
e The input data required included parameters to characterize the pipe material and dimensions, the target (i.e., observer or equipment) location, and the activities, gamma energies, and decay rates of the radioactive isotopes in the fluid.
Because the calculations were concerned only with targets outside the pipe, beta radiation dose was assumed to be negligible when compared with the associated gamma dose.
Furthermore, the only output of concern was assumed to be accumulated (integrated) gamma dose as a function of time.
For all calculated
- cases, the source in the pipe was assumed to be distributed in water; air was assumed to surround each pipe.
All pipes were assumed to be made of iron, with no additional shielding present.
In sum, eleven (ll) dose calculations for the pipes were made.
For cases 1 through ll, the volume of water into which the source was distributed was assumed to be equal to the minimum volume available for recirculation at the time of;switchover from the injection to the recirculation phase of a LOCA.
This volume was defined as consi.sting of the difference between the minimum Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) content (350,000 gallons) and the RWST low level set point (131,962 gallons), plus the Reactox'oolant System inventory of 93,960 gallons.
This total water volume is, therefore, 311,998 gallons.
For cases 1 through 10, the fraction of core radioactive inventory in the water was assumed to be 100% of the noble gases, 50% of the radioiodines, and 1% of the other fission products.
Since it was deemed highly unlikely that the noble gases would actually be in the recix'culating fluid (rather, they should remain in the containment atmosphere),
case ll was performed with no noble gases present.
Since
4 3
the input for case 4 and case 11 were identical with the exception of the assumed noble gas source, a base was provided to assess the effect of the noble gas sgurce term.
- Indeed, the one>>year accumulated gamma doses of 10.2 x 10 R and 8.92 x 10 R for cases 4 and ll, respectively, indicated that inclusion of the noble gases in the calculations could provide a conservative margin on the order of 14% to the estimated doses.
The piping systems considered in the calculations involved portions of the Centrifugal Charging (CC), Safety Injection (SI), Residual Heat Removal (RHR), and Containment Spray (CS) systems.
These systems are located outside containment and may be expected to carry fluid recirculated from the containment sump.
The specific pipe sizes considered are presented in Table 4-1.
Bounding cases were run for the largest diameter pipe (14.0" outside diameter) and for the pipes with the largest outside diameter-to-wall thickness ratios (OD/T = 58.28; OD/T = 49.44).
All targets were assumed at a location equidistant from the ends of the length of pipe considered.
Cases 1 through 4 were run to test the sensitivity of the results to the choice of radial and azimuthal divisions of the source.
A matrix of 20 radial and 36 azimuthal divisions was found to be satisfactory for even the largest diameter pipe.
This method of division was therefore used in cases 4 through 11.
Cases 4 through 6 were run to compare piping doses as a function of OD/T.
The dose was found to increase as OD/T increased, even though the pipe ODs varied.
Apparently the pipe sizes considered were not of prime importance; it appeared as though, for the specific selection of pipes, the most important factor was whether the pipe wall was thin enough to minimize gamma attenuation.
Cases 4, 7, and 8 were run to test the effect of locating the target at various distances from the 14" OD pipe.
In particular, these cases assumed the target at the pipe outer surface, 13" from the pipe centerline, and 31" from the pipe centerline.
The resultant one-year accumulated doses expressed in MR for these cases were, respectively, 1.02, 0.52, and 0.21.
Cases 4, 6, 9, and 10 were run to assess the effect of an assumed pipe length on the calculations.
There was no difference in integrated doses due toa 12.5 ft or a 25.0 ft length of pipe (assuming the target at the pipe outer surface).
In summation, the bounding case found as a result of this work was case 6.
This case assumed 100% of the core inventory of noble gases, 50% of the core inventory of radioiodines, and 1% of the core inventory of other fission products to be distributed in approximately 312<000 gallons of water.
The assumed pipe dimensions were 8.625" OD, 0.148" wall thickness, and 12.5 ft length.
,Utilizing 20 radial and
$6 azimuthal divisions, a one-year integrated dose of 14.58 x 10 R was calculated at a point on the pipe outer surface, midway between the pipe ends.
Multiplying this value by 1.3 to account for daughter sources and
4>>4 by 0.875 tg convert to rads yields a one-year accumulated dose of 16.58 x 10 rads for this bounding case.
(his value compares favorably to the one-year integrated dose of 12 x 10 rads specified for equipment outside containment (not subject to submersion) in information transmitted to us by Westinghouse Electric Corporation.
The integrated dose at various times up to one year for case 6 were also determined to be as follows:
at 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />, 1.02 Mrads; at 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, 2.62 Mrads; at 1
day, 3.98 Mrads; at 1 month, 12.3 Mrads; at 4 months, 14.79 Mrads; and at one year, 16.58 Mrads.
A lication To The Equi ment Qualification Process Based upon the results presented above for case 6, the accumulated gamma dose as a function of time up to one year was applied to various equipment items located outside containment.
As an example, if an equipment item had a required operating time of one month, the accumulated gamma dose corresponding to that time frame as determined in case 6 (e.g.,
12.3 Mrads) was applied to the item. If the equipment item was then determined to be located at a distance from the nearest
- pipe, a factor applicable to that distance (i.e., 1.0 for equipment at the pipe outer surface, 0.51 for equipment 6" from the pipe outer
- surface, and 0.21 for equipment, 2 ft from the pipe outer surface) would then be multiplied by the dose determined from case 6 to yield the equipment specified post-accident.
dose.
These correction factors were obtained by comparing the one-year accumulated doses for cases 4, 7, and 8 (see discussion on calculation findings above).
Using this calculational procedure and plant specific installation
- records, specified doses were obtained for most of the electric equipment of concern outside containment.
In general, these equipment items were treated as belonging to any of the four following categories:
a)
Cables and cable terminations at instruments and solenoids which are not subject to radiation are treated as category "A"
items.
Such items include those shown on Unit 1 SCEW sheets CI-4, CI-10, TC-15'I-9, and TI-10( and Unit 2 SCEH sheets CI-6, CI-10, TC-15, TI-9, and TI-10.

Components in category "C" are those located at distances greater than or equal to 6" from a recirculation line, but which are conservatively assumed to be at a 6" distance.

This aPPlies to Unit 1 SCEW sheets CP-6, TC-14, and V-10, and Unit 2 SCEW sheets CP-7, CP-12, TC-14, and V-10.
Specified radiation doses for these equipment items in categories "A" through "D" are presented in Tables 4-2 (Unit 1) and 4-3 (Unit 2).
