Attachment 1 REQUIRED INFO% fATION Break S ectrum and Partial Loop Operation The information provided for each plant shall comply with the provisions of the attached memorandum entitled, "Hinimum Requirements for ECCS Break Spectrum Submittals."

The ECCS system in each plant should be evaluated by the applicant (or licensee) to show that significant changes in chemical concentrations will not occur during the long term after a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) and these potential changes have been specifically addressed by appropriate operating procedures. Accordingly, the applicant should review the system capabilities and operating procedures to assure that boron precipitation would not compromise long-term core cooling capability following a LOCA. This review should consider all aspects of the specific plant design, including component qualification in the LOCA environment in addition to a detailed review of operating procedures. The applicant should examine the vulnerability of the specific plant design to single failures that would result in any significant boron precipitation.

Sin le Failure Anal sis A single failure evaluation of the ECCS should be provided by the applicant (or licensee) for his specific plant design, as required by Appendix K to 10 CFR 50, Section I.D.l. In performing this evaluation, the effects of a single failure or operator error that causes any manually controlled, electrically-operated valve to move to a position that could adversely affect the ECCS must be considered. Therefore, if this consid-eration has not been specifically reported in the past, the applicants upcoming submittal must address this consideration. Include a list of all of the FCCS valves that are currently required by the plant Technical Specifications to have power disconnected, and any proposed plant modifications and changes to the Technical Specifications that might be required in order to protect against any loss of safety function caused by this type" of failure. A copy of Branch Technical Position EICSB 18 from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Standard Review Plan is attached to provide you with guidance.

The single failure evalu".tion should include the potential for passive failures of fluid systems during long term cooling following a LOCA as well as single failures of active components. For PHR plants, the single failure analysis is to consider the potential boron concentra-problem as an integral part of long term cooling.

Submer ed Valves The applicant should review the specific equipment arrangement with-in his plant to determine if any valve motors within containment will become submerged following a LOCA. The review should include all valve motors that may become submerged, not only those in the safety injection system. Valves in other systems may be needed to limit boric acid con-centration in the reactor vessel during long term cool&>g or may be required for containment isolation.

The applicant (or lice'nsee) is to provide the following information, for each plant:

(1) whether or not any valve motors will be submerged following a LOCA in the plant being reviewed.

(2) If any valve motors will be flooded in their plant, the applicant (or licensee) is to:

(a) Identify the valves that will be submerged.

(b) Evaluate the potential consequences of flooding of the valves for both the short term and long term ECCS functions and containment isolation. The long term should consider the potential problem of excessive concentrations of boric acid in PWR's.

(c) Propose a interim solution while necessary modifications are being designed and implemented. (currently operating plants only).

(d) Propose design changes to solve the potential flooding problem.

S. Containment Pteeente (PMR'e~Onl )

The containment pressure used to evaluate the performance capability of the ECCS shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Branch Technical Position CSB 6-1, which is enclosed.

6. Low ECCS Reflood Rate (Westinghouse NSSS Only)

Plants that have a Westinghouse nuclear steam supply shall perform their ECCG analyses utilizing the proper version of the evaluation model, as defined below:

(1) The December 25, 1974 version of the Westinghouse evaluation model, i.e., the version without the modifications described in WCAP-8471 is acceptable for previously analyzed plants for which the peak clad temperature turnaround was identified prior to the reflood rate decreasing below 1.1 inches per second or for which the reflood rate was identified to remain above 1.0'nch per second; conditions for which the December 25, 1974 and March 15, 1975 versions would be equivalent.

(2) The Harch 15, 1975 version of the Westinghouse evaluation model is an acceptable model to be used for all previously analyzed plants ror which the peak clad temperature turnaround was identi-fi'd to occur after the reflood rate decreased below 1.1 inches per second, and for which steam cooling conditions (reflood rate less than 1 inch p'er second) exist prior to t.he time of peak clad temperature turnaround. The Harch 15, 1975 version will be used for all future plant analyses.

I ;l MINIMUM RE UIREHENTS FOR FCCS BRFJK SPECTRUM SUBMITTALS I. INTRODUCTION The following outline shall be used as a guideline in the evaluation of LOCA break spectrum submittals. These guidelines have been formulated for contemporary. reactor designs only and must be re-assessed when new reactor concepts are submitted.

The current ECCS Acceptance Criteria requires that ECCS cooling performance be calculated in accordance with an acceptable evaluation model and for a number of postulated loss-of<<coolant accidents of different sizes, locations and other properties sufficient to rovide assurance that the entire s ectrum of ostulated loss-of-coolant accidents is covered. In addition, the calculation is to be conducted with at least three values of a discharge coefficient (CD) applied to the postulated break area, these values spanning the range from 0.6, to 1.0.

Sections IIA and IIIA define the acceptable break spectrum for most operating plants which have received Safety Orders. Sections IIB and IIIB define the break spectrum requirements for most CP and OL case work (exceptions noted later).'ections IIC and IIIC provide an outline of the minimum requirements for an acceptable complete break spectrum. Such a complete break spectrum could be appropriately referenced by some plants. Sections IXID and IIXE provide the exceptions to certain plant types noted above.

A plant due to reload a portion of its core will have previously submitted all or part of a break spectrum analysis (either by reference or by specific calculations). If it is the intention of the Licensee to replace expended fuel with new fuel of the same design (no mechanical design differences which could affect thermal and hydraulic performance), and if the Licensee intends 'o operate the reloaded core in compliance with previously approved Technical Specifications, no'dditional calculations are required. If the reload core design has changed, the Licensee shall adopt either of Sections IIA or IIC, or of Sections IIIA or IIIC of this document, as appropriate to the plant type (BWR or PWR). The criterion for establishing whether paragraph A or C shall be satisfied will be determined on the basis of whether the Licensee can demonstrate that the shape of the PCT versus break size curve has not been modified as a consequence of changes to the reload'core design. When the reload is supplied by a source other than the NSSS supplier, the break spectrum analysis specified by Sections IIC or IIIC shall be submitted as a minimum (as appropriate to.the plant type, BWR or PWR).* Additional sensitivity studies may be required to assess the sensitivity of fuel changes in such areas as single failures and reactor coolant pump performance.

II. PRESSURIZED WATER REACTORS A. 0 eratin Reactor Regnal ses (Plants for which Safety Orders were issued)

Each sensitivity study performed during the development of the ECCS evaluation model shall be individually verified as remaining applicable, or shall be repeated. A plant may reference a break spectrum analysis conducted on another plant if it is the same configuration and core des'ign.'.

If the lar est break size results in the hi hest PCT:

b. Reanalyze two smaller breaks. in the large break region.
2. If the lar est break size does not result in the hi hest PCT:
a. Reanalyze the limiting break.
b. Reanalyze a break larger and a break smaller than the limiting break. If the limiting break is outside the range of Moody multipliers of 0.6 to =1.0 (i.e., less than 0.6), then the limiting break plus two larger breaks must be analyzed.

If calculational changes have been made to the SBM to make it wholly with 10CFR50, App'endix K, the analysis of the worst smal1 break in'onformance (SBM) as previously determined from paragraph-.C below should be repeated.

B. New CP and OL Case Pork A complete break spectrum should be provided in accordance with paragraph C below, except for the following:

l. If a new plant is of the same general design as the plant used as a basis for a referenced complete spectrum analysis, but operating parameters have changed which would increase PCT or metal-water reaction, or approved calculational changes resulting in more than 20 F change in PCT have been made to the ECCS model used for the referenced complete spectrum, the analyses of paragraph' above should be provided plus a minimum of three small breaks (SBM), one of which is the transition break.* The shape of the break spectrum in the referenced analysis should be justified as remaining applicable, including the sensitivity studies used as a basis for the ECCS evaluation model.
2. If a new plant (configuration and core design) is applicable to all generic studies because it is'he same with respect to the generic plant design and parameters used as a basis for a referenced complete spectrum defined in paragraph C, and no calculational changes resulting in more than 20 F change in PCT were made to the ECCS model used for the referenced complete spectrum, then no new spectrum analyses are required. The new plant may instead reference the applicable analysis.

a C. minimum Re uirements for a Coin lete Break S ectrum Since it is expected that applicants will prefer to reference an applicable complete break spectrum previously conducted on another plant, this paragraph defines the ~minim m number of breaks required for an acceptable complete break spectrum analysis, assuming the cold leg pump discharge is established as the worst break location. The worst single failure and worst-case reactor coolant pump status (running or tripped) shall be established utilizing appropriate sensitivity studies. These studies should show that the worst single failure has been justified as a function of break size. Each sensitivity study published during the development of the ECCS evaluation model shall be individually justified as remaining applicable, or shall be repeated. Also, a proposal for partial loop operation shall be supported by identifying and analyzing the worst break size and location (i.e., idle loop versus operating loop) . In additions sufficient justification shall be provided to conclude that the shape of the PCT, versus Break Size curve would not be significantly altered by the partial loop configuration. Unless this information is provided, plant Technical Specifications shall not permit operation with one or more idle reactor coolant pumps.

It must be demonstrated that the containment design used for the break spectrum analysis is appropriate for. the specific plant analyzed. Xt should be noted that this analysis is to be performed with an approved evaluation model wholly in conformance with the current ECCS Acceptance Criteria.

1. LBM Cold Leg-Reactor Coolant Pump Discharge
a. Three guillotine type breaks spanning at least the range of Hoody multipliers between Oe6 and 1.0.
b. One split type break equivalent in size to twice the pipe cross-sectional area.
c. Two intermediate split type breaks.
d. The large-break/small-break transition split.
2. LBM Cold Leg-Reactor Coolant Pump Suction Analyze the largest break size from part 1 above. If the analyses in part 1 above should indicate that the worst cold leg break is an intermediate break size, then the largest break in the pump suction should be analyzed with an explanation of why the same trend would not apply.
3. LBH Hot Leg Piping Analyze the largest rupture in the hot leg piping.

l 1 0

4. SBM Splits Analyze fiv'e diffexent small break sizes. One of these breaks must include the transition split break. The CFT line break must be analyzed for B6W plants. This break may also be one of the five small breaks.

III. BOILING WATER REACTORS The generic model developed by General Electric for BWRs proposed that split and guillotine type breaks are equivalent in determining blowdown phenomena.

The staff concluded this was acceptable and that the break area may be considered at the vessel nozzle with a zero loss coefficient using a two phase critical flow model. Changes in the break area are equivalent to changes in the Moody multiplier.

The minimum number of breaks required for a ~com lete break spectrum analysis assuming a suction side recirculation line break is the design basis accident (DBA) and the worst single failure has been established utilizing appropriate sensitivity studies, are shown in paxagraph C below. Also, a proposal for partial loop operation shall be supported by identifying and apalyzing the worst break size and location (i.e., idle loop versus operating loop). In addition, sufficient justification shall be provided to conclude that the shape of the PCT versus Break Size curve would not be significantly altered by the partial loop configuration. Unless this information is provided, plant Technical Specifications shall not permit operation with one or more idle reactor coolant pumps.

A. BWR2 BWR3 and BWR4 Regnal sis (Plants for which Safety Orders were issued)

If the referenced lead plant analysis is in accordance with Section III, paragraph C below, the following minimum number of break sizes should be reanalyzed. It is to be noted that the lead plant analysis is to be performed with an approved evaluation model wholly in conformance with the current ECCS Acceptance Criteria. A plant may reference a break spectrum analysis conducted on another plant and core design.

if it is the same confiauration Each sensitivity study published during the development of the ECCS evaluation model shall be individually justified as remaining applicable, or shall be repeated..

l. If the lar est break results in the hi hest PCT:
a. Reanalyze the limiting break with the appropriate referenced single failure.
b. Reanalyze the worst small break with the appropriate referenced single failure.
c. Reanalyze the transition break with the single failure and model that pxedicts the highest PCT.

I 0

2. If the lar est break does not result in the hi hest PCT:
a. Reanalyze the limiting break, the largest break, and a smaller break.

If calculational changes have been made to the SBM to make it wholly in conformance with 10CFRSO, Appendix K, reanalyze the small break (SBM) in accordance with Section IIXC.

B. New CP and OL Case Work A complete break spectrum should be provided in accordance with Section III, paragraph C below, except for the following'.

l. If a new plant is of the same general design as the plant used as a basis for the lead plant analysis, but opexating paxameters have changed which would increase PCT or metal-water reaction, or approved calculational changes have been .made to the ECCS model resulting in more than 20 F change in PCT, the analyses of Section III, paragraph A above should be provided plus a minimum of three small breaks (SBM),

one of which is the transition break. The shape of the break spectrum in the lead plant analysis should be justified as remaining applicable, including the sensitivity studies used as a basis for the ECCS evaluation model.

2. If a new plant (configuration or core design) is applicable to all generic studies because it is the same with respect to the generic plant design and parameters used as a basis for a referenced complete spectrum defined in paragraph C, and no calculational changes resulting in more than 20 F change in PCT were made to the ECCS model used for the referenced complete spectrum, then no new spectrum analyses are required.

The new plant may instead reference the applicable analysis.

C. Minimum Re uirements for a Com lete Break S ectrum This paragraph defines the minimum number of breaks requixed for an acceptable complete spectrum analysis. This complete spectrum analysis is required for each of the lead plants of a given class (BWR2, BWR3, BWR4, BWR5, and BWR6). Each sensitivity study published during the development of the ECCS evaluation model shall be individually justified as remaining applicable, or shall be repeated.

l. Four recirculation line breaks at the worst location, (pump suction or discharge), using the LBM, covering the range from the transition break (TB) to the DBA, including CD coefficients of from 0.6 to 1.0 times the DBA.

These provisions are based on the assurption that the co..ponert fs then equivalent to a sinilar component that is not designed for electrical operation, e.g., a valve that can be opened or closed only by direct ranual operation of the valve.

3.

BRANCH TECHNICAL POSITIOlt CSB 6-1 HINIHUH COttTAltlHENT PRESSURE MODEL FOR PMR ECCS PERFORHAtiCE EYALUATION A. BACKGROUND Paragraph 1.0.2 of Appendix K to 10 CFR Part 50 (Ref. 1) requires that the containment pressure used to evaluate the performance capability of a pressurized water reactor (PMR) emergency core cooling system (ECCS) not exceed a pressure calculated conservatively for that purpose. It further requires that the calculation include the effects of operation of

~ all installed prcssure-reducing systems and processes. Therefore, the following branch technical position has been developed to provide guidance in the perfonrancc of ninirum containment pressure analysis. The approach described below applies only to the ECCS-related containmcnt pressure evaluation and not to the containment functional capability evaluation for postulated design basis accidents.

B. BRANCH TECMttICAL POSI TIOtt

l. ~In ut Information for Model
a. Initial Contain-..ent Internal Conditions The minimum containncnt gas tenpcraturc, rinimur containment pressure, and maxinum humidity that may be encountered under limiting norr.:al operating conditions should bc used.
b. Initial Outside Contain",.ent Ambient Conditions A reasonably low arbient temperature external to the contain-.cnt shculd bc used.
c. Containment Volur.c The maximum nct free containment volu.;.c should be used. This raxir un free should be determined fro".. the gross containmcnt volume ninus the volu-:,es

'olume of interrial structures such as walls and floors, structural steel, rajor e"uip..ntt, and piping, 'he individual volurac calculations should reflect the uncertainty in the component volumes.

2. Active Meat Sinks
a. ~S ra and Fan'oolin S stems The operation of all enoineercd safety feature containment heat removal systems operating at maximum heat removal capacity; i.c., with'll contain.-.'.cnt spr'ay trains operating at maximum flow conditions and all emergency fan cooler units operating, should he assumed. In addition, the mininun temperature of the stored water for the spray cooling system and the cooling water supplied to the fan coolers, based on technical specification limits, should be assumed.

6.2.1.5-3

1 k Deviation rom the foregoing will be accepted if i n be shown that the worst

'conditions regarding a single active failure, stored water temperature, and cooling water temperature have been selected from the standpoint of the overall ECCS models

b. Cnntainnent Stean> Ni~xin "itn S tiled CCCS Vatee The spillage of subcooled ECCS water into the containment provides an additional heat sink as the subcooled ECCS water mixes with the steam in the containment.

The effect of the steam-water mixing should be considered in the containment pressure calculations.

c. Containment Steam Hixin ".ith Vater from Ice S!elt The water resulting from ice melting'n an ice condenser containment provides an additional heat sink as the subcooled water mixes with the steam while draining from the ice condenser into the lower contain,ent volume. The effect of the steam-water mixing should be considered in the containment pressure calculations.
3. hssive Heat Sinks
a. 'Identification The passive heat sinks that should be included in the containment evaluation model should be established by identifying those structures and co..ponents within the containment that could influence the pressure response. The kinds of struc-tures and components that should be included are listed in Table 1.

Data on passive heat sinks have been compiled from previo's revie's and have been used as a basis for the simplified model outlined below. This model is acceptable for minimum containment pressure analyses for construction pes-~it applications, and until such time (i.e., at the operating license revie") tnat a complete identification of available heat, siraks can be made. Tnis si;.plified approach has also been folio:s d for o-crating plants by licensees co-plying witn Section 50.46 {a)(2) of 10 CFR Part 50. For such cases, and for construction permit reviews, where a detailed listing of teat sinks within the contain-ent e

often cannot be provided, the following procedure may be used to model tne pass;ve heat sinks within the contain...cnt:

(1) Use the surface area and thickness of the primary containment steel shell cr steel liner and associated anchors and concrete, as appropriate.

(2) Estimate the exposed surface area of other steel heat sinks in accordance with Figure 1 and assume an average thickness of 3/8 inch.

{3) 5'lodel the internal concrete structures as a slab with a thickness of 1 foot and exposed surface of 160,000 ft .

The heat sink thermophysical properties that would be acceptable are shown in Table 2.

At the crating license stage, applicants shou ovide,a detailed list of passive heat sinks. with appropriate dimensions and properties.

b. Heat Transfer Coefficients The following conservative condensing heat transfer coefficients for heat transfer to the exposed passive heat sinks during the blowdown and post-blowdown phases of the loss-of-coolant accident should be used {See Figure 2):

(1) During the blowdown phase, assume a linear-increase in the condensing heat transfer coefficient from h.initial=8 Btu/hr-ft2 - 0 F, at t 0 0, to a peak value four times greater than the maximum calculated condensirg heat trans-nax where h

(2) During the long-tern post-blowdown phase of the accident, characterized by low turbulence in the containment atrosphere, assir.".e condensing heat transfer coefficients 1.2 times greater than those predicted by the Uchida data (Ref. 3) and given in Table 3 ~

Q (3) During the transition phase of the accident, between the end of lowdo0n and the long-tern post-blowdown phase, a reasonably conservative exponser.tial transition in the condensing heat transfer coefficient should be ass.".ed

( See Figure 2).

The calculated condensing heat transfer coefficients based on the a".ove re'.nod be applied to al) exposed passive heat sirksboth metal and ccrcre:e, ard 'hould for both .painted and unpainted surfaces.

Heat transfer between adjoining raterials in" passive heat sinks should b based on the assumption of no resistance to, heat flow at the material interfaces. An example of this is the containment liner to concrete'nterface.

ENCLOSURE 2 BAC!(GROUND Pool Dynamics The need to consider suppression pool hydrodynamic loads in the design of certain parts of the Mark III containmcnt developed during the carly phases of the large-scale Mark III test program being conducted by the General Electric Company. A series of air tests were performed in March 1974 to scope the rang and magnitude of pool dynamic

'loads. It was recognized that more definitive tests >>ere required and therefore comprehensive tests in 1/3 scale were initiated in the summer of 1974 and are currently still in progress. Parallel efforts to develop analytical models for the various pool dynamic phenomena have been implemented by the General Electric Company, several architect/engineers, and by NRC consultants.

The HRC staff has maintained contact with GE regarding the planning and progress of the pool dynamics testing and associated analyses. Due to the commonality of the >>ater prcssure suppression feature in Mark I, II, and III type containments it was apparent that pool dynamic loads could also be a consideration for Mark I and II plants. GE, in fact, is in the process of planning a series of tests for ASEA/Atom of Sweden.

The purpose of tnese tests would be to determine pool dynamic loads for a structure located immediately above the suppression pool for. a,containment with vertical vent pipes. The basis for applying this data to specific Mark I and II designs has not yet been established.

~ 'NCLOSURE 3 DESCRIPTION OF POTENTIAL POOL DYNAMIC PHENOMENA, Following a design basis loss-of-coolant accident in the drywell, the dry-well atmosphere will be rapidly compressed due to bio>>down mass and energy addition to the drywell vo'lume. This compression would be transmitted in the form of a com ressive >>'ave and propogate through the vent system into the suppression pool. The pool response to this effect could include a load on the suppression chamber walls.

1('ith pressurization of the drywell, the water in the do>>ncomers will be

'epressed and forced out through-the vent system into the suppression pool. This movement of pool water can result in a water et im in ement load on the suppression chamber.

Following clearing of the vents an air/steam/>>ater mixture will flo>> from the drywell through the vents and be injected into the suopression pool

'elow the surface. Depending on the characteristics of the suppression system (i.e., the vent area comspared to the drywell volume and break flow area) dry>>ell overexpansions could occur. Overexpansion of the drywell results when the initial vent flow, following vent clearing, evacuates the drywell more rapidly than the volume is replenished by blowdown mass and energy input. If the drywell volume is relatively small compared to the area of the vents, then there is insufficient capacity to abso b 'he transitipn in venting rates and loads due to ~i~a.l~overe.>>ans'on peril lati.ons can occur on the suppression chamber and vent system.

During vent flow the steam component of the'flow mixture >>ill condense in the pool >>hile the air, being noncondensible, >>ill be released to the pool as high pressure air bubbles. Initial air bubble loads would be experienced by all pool retaining structures and could be of an osc'llatory mode due to overexpansion'nd recompression of the bubbles.

The continued addition and expansion of air within the pool causes .the pool volume to swell and therefore an acceleration of the surface vertically upward. This response of the pool is referred to as bulk pool s>>ell since the air is confined beneath the pool and is driving a solid 1'gament of

'water. Bulk ool s>>ell air bubble and flow dray. loads are imparted to the suppression chamber walls and to structures, components, etc., which may be located at low elevations. above the normal pool surface. Bulk vool swell Due to the ef ect of buoyancy, air bubbles >>ill rise faster than the pool water mass and will eventually break through the s>>ollen surface and relieve the driving force beneath the pool. This breakup of the water ligament

'eads to the upward expulsion of a 2-phase mix ure of air and water and is referred to as pool swell in the, froth mode. Struciures>>hich are located at higher clovaticns above "hc initial pool su..i'ace could experience a pool swell froth im inqemcnt.load due to impact of 2-phase flow.

0 2-Froth flow will continue until the fluid kinetic energy has been expended, followed by fallback of the water to the initial suppression pool level.

Structures located above the pool could be subject to water fallback loads.

Following the initial pool swell event the suppression system will settle

.,into a generally coherent phase during which significant vent flow rates are maintained from th'e dry>>ell to the pool. A resultant effect is the occurrence of hi h vent flow. steam condensation loads, which can be of an ~ 1~" v . on pool retaining structures. As the reactor coolant system inventory of mass and eneigy is depleted, near the end of blowdown, venting rates to the suppression pool diminish allowing water to reenter the downcomers. During phases of low vent mass flux the suppression system behaves in an oscillatory manner, referred to as chugging, whereby periodic clearing and subsequent recovery of vents occurs since the vent flow cannot. sustain bulk steam condensation at the vent exit. The resultant local fluctuations in pressure and water levels generate fichu Lggin

It should be further noted that the magnitude and range of any of the hydro-of the suppression system, either in the circumferential or radial direction.

One possible initiator of such response >>ould be seismicall induced ool motion >>hich could lead to locally deeper submergences for certain downcomers and therfore larger pool swell loads. Full account of this potentiality should be made in establishing hydrodynamic load capabil'ities for the suppression chamber structures design.

SER CI-10 The number of ADS SRVs is determined by a LOCA analysis. NMP2 will require seven SRVs to achieve a rapid depressurization during a small break LOCA. The applicant will confirm this by a plant-specific ECCS analysis.

RESPONSE

In a small-break ECCS analysis, a particular ADS flow rate is required to bring the vessel pr essure down in a prescribed time to allow the operation of low pressure core cooling following the postulated failure of HPCS. This ADS flow rate determines the number of ADS valves. Before the completion of NNP2 plant specific ECCS analysis, seven SRVs were designated for ADS function based on generic BWR/5 calculations including that of WNP-2 (Hanford) .

Subsequently, the NHP2 plant specific ECCS analysis in compliance with the criteria of 10CFR50, Appendix K, has confirmed the adequacy of 7-ADS-valve design by using only six ADS valves in the small b~eak analysis. See FSAR Table 6.3-1.

RESPONSE

The NMP2 plant specific ECCS analysis shows that the most limiting core-wide metal (cladding) -water reaction is 0.07K of the hypothetical amount generated if all of the metal in the cladding cylinders surrounding the fuel, excluding the cladding around the plenum volume, were to react with core coolant. This is well within the 10CFR50.46 limit of 1X. See FSAR Table 6.3-4.

Nine Nile Point Unit 2 FSAR Criterion 4 Coolable Geometr "Calculated changes in core geometry shall be such that the core remains amenable to cooling." As described in NEDE-20566-P',Section III.A. Conformance to Criterion 4 )

is demonstrated by conformance to Criteria 1 and 2.

Criterion 5 Lon -Term Coolin "After any calculated successful initial operation of the ECCS, the calculated core temperature shall be maintained at an acceptably low value and decay heat shall be removed for the extended period of time required by the long-lived radioactivity remaining in the core." Conformance to Criterion 5 is demonstrated generically for GE BWRs in NEDE-20566-P',Section III.A. Briefly summarized, the core remains covered to at least the jet pump suction elevation and 'the uncovered region is cooled by spray cooling.

6.3.3 ' Single-Failure Considerations The functional consequences of potential operator errors and single failures (including, those that might cause any manually controlled electrically operated valve in the ECCS to move to a position that could adversely affect the ECCS),

and the potential for submergence of valve motors in the ECCS are discussed in Section 6.3.1. No potential single failures are more severe than the single failures identified in Table 6.3-3. It is, therefore, only necessary to consider each of these single fai lures in the ECCS performance analyses.

For large breaks, failure of one of the standby diesel generators is in general the most severe failure. For small breaks, the failure of the HPCS is the most severe failure; neither failure results in unacceptable consequences.

A single failure in the ADS (one ADS valve) has no effect on large breaks. Therefore, as a matter of calculational convenience, it is assumed in all calculations that one ADS valve fails to operate in addition to the identified single 20 failure. This assumption reduces the number of calculations required in the performance analysis and bounds the effects of one ADS valve failure and HPCS failure by itself. The only effect of the assumed ADS valve failure on the calculations is a small increase (approximately 100 F) in the calculated temperatures following small breaks.

Amendment 20 6.3-23 July 1985

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR 6.3.3.4 System Performance During the Accident In general, the system response to an accident can be described as:

Receiving an initiation signal,

2. A small lag time (to open all valves and have the pumps up to rated speed), and
3. ECCS flow entering the vessel.

Amendment 20 6.3-23a July 1985

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY BLANK Amendment 20 6.3-23b July 1985

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR Key ECCS actuation set points and time delays are provided in Table 6.3-1. The delay from the receipt of signal until the ECCS pumps have reached rated speed is subject to the physical limitations of accelerating the diesel generators and pumps. The delay time due to valve motion in the case of the high-pressure system provides a suitably conservative allowance for valves available for this application. In the case of the low-pressure system, the time delay for valve motion is such that the pumps are at rated speed prior to the time the vessel pressure reaches the pump shutoff pressure.

The flow delivery rates analyzed in Section 6.3.3 can be determined from the head-flow curves on Figures 6.3-3A, 6.3-4A, and 6.3-5A and the pressure versus time plots discussed in Section 6.3.3.7. Simplified piping and instrumentation and functional control diagrams for the ECCS are provided in Section 6.3.2. The operational sequence of the ECCS for the DBA is shown in Table 6.3-2.

Operator action is not required, except as a monitoring function, during the short-term cooling period following the LOCA. During the long-term cooling period, the operator takes action as specified in Section 6.2.2.2 to place the containment cooling system into operation.

Using the standard, approved licensing models and an assumed flow control valve (FCV) closure rate of 11 percent per second, generic BWR/5-6 analyses showed an increase of the peak cladding temperature (PCT) of <45 F. The ECCS calculations applicable to Unit 2 yield a PCT that can accommodate this increase without violating the 2,200 F limit of 10CFR50.46.

Provisions for limiting the FCV closure rate to are discussed below.

ll percent ECCS analysis for the double-ended recirculation pipe break design basis accident takes credit for a core flow coastdown resulting from recirculation pump coastdown in the unbroken loop. A hypothesized closure of the FCV in the unbroken loop during the first few seconds of a LOCA gives rise to the question of whether degraded flow coastdown could lead to increased values of peak clad temperature. Actual recirculation flow control valve closure, leading to degraded flow coastdown, is not an expected consequence of a LOCA event.

'TABLE 15.6-5 SEQUENCE OF EVENTS FOR STEAM LINE BREAK OUTSIDE CONTAINMENT Time

{ serac Event 0 Guillotine break of one main steam line outside primary containment.

0.5 High steam line flow signal initiates closure of MSIVs.

(1.0 Reactor begins scram.

S5.5 MSIVs fully closed.

~30 RCIC and HPCS would initiate on low-low water ao level (RCIC considered unavailable; HPCS assumed single failure and therefore not available).

~70 SRVs open on high vessel pressure. The valves open and close to maintain vessel pressure at approximately 1,100 psi.

Reactor water level begins to drop slowly due to loss of steam through the SRVs; reactor pressure still at approximately 1,100 psi.

~720 ADS would signal to initiate on low-low-low water level.

~840 ADS initited. Vessel depressurizes rapidly.

~l, 040 Low pressure ECCS initiated with reactor fuel 20 partially uncovered.

~1, 135* Core effectively reflooded and clad temperature heatup terminated; no fuel rod failure.
