This concept will utilize a balance of plant cooling water w =.

. system to effect cooling of steam generator "B" during water.,

e-.

solid operation of the secondary sIfe of the steam generator

.~5 and ultimately under natural circulation of the primary water.

~-

Water will be circulated by the secondary services cooling water pumps through the main feedwater line and into the steam generator.

It will exit the steam generator through the main steam line and will flow to the secondary service cooling water heat exchangers where it will be cooleo and returned to the steam generato. by the secondary service cool-

}

-W ing water pumps.

The secondary services cooling water heat exchanger will be cooled by the nuclear services river water 7

system.

Refer to Figure 2 for a schematic of this flowpath.

water control valve.

This pipe routing will be between 500 feet to 600 feet long located in the turbine building. A jumper pipe will also be installed between the main steam gge-turbine bypass line and the supply line to the secondary ser-vices cooling water heat exchangers.

This pipe routing will be approximately 20 feet long also located in,the turbine

-* L _

building.

These jumper pipes will include connections for 1

the long term sdheme.

Provisions will also be made for

-I.

demineralization of a portion,f the fl owrate.

These pip-ing modifications will be run along the floor and attached

.=_

to railroad ties and existing steel beams in the turbine building where feasible.

These modifications establish the flowpath for the secondary side of steam generator "B".

Additional jumper pipes will be installed between the nuclear M

services river water system and secondary services river water system to cool the secondary services cooling water heat ex-changer.

The safety classification of the nuclear services river water system will be maintained.

This water flows to the mechani al draf t cooling tower basin.

This modi fication es-tablishes the flowpath fo r cooling the secondary side of the

~

secondary services cooling water heat exchanger. All piping connections will be welded.

During the meeting with Burns & Roe on April 13, 1979, 2.,

3 several shortcomings of the short term steam generator B Sr 7,-[

(Approach #1) modification were brought out.

These were:

i2 v. '-

a NN 1.

The secondary services cooling water heat exchangers

..-.: e o

.=4 should be limited to 150 F inlet water from the steam generators to prevent damage to the tube sheets.

The heat exchanger manu facture r would expect that 200 F water would

~

U

'.~.[_

be acceptable for a short period of time, however, the

.. ~.

~..2

.,.=j tubes are not welded into the tube sheets and the higher 3.w than design inlet temperature could cause separation of the tubes from the tube sheet resulting in leakage. While there should be adequate recirculation in the system to prevent

n. -

this occurrence, provisions will have to be incorporated into the design to limit this temperature.

='d 2.

Since the tubes are not welded into the tube sheets, there will always be some leakage between the prirsary and secondary side of the secondary services cooling water heat exchangers.

~.. 'i., ENCLOSURE 2 DECAY HEAT REMOVAL SYSTEM ~ I. SCPE estinghouse has been given the responsibility for direct decay heat removal from the primary system. Their work will be done in two parts as follows: Un ra d i ng Existing Decay Heat Remova_1 System Vestinghouse will make provisions for ar:d conduct a preopera-ti nal test of each loop of the existing DHR system. Locations of system leakage will be identi fied using television cameras installed at key locations. Once leakage paths are identified, thev will be corrected if possible, thereby providing as leak ti nt a system es practical. Leakage collection capability will also be added to the system where feasible (i.e. collection .w m of leakage around valves), instrumentation to detect pump vi: ration will also be installed. 4 165 220 .z ..:::f L. .a. .

.L' EEi Design of New Decay Heat Removal Svstem Ed Vestinghouse has proposed to install a third tret.n for decay hea t removal.

This will involve a tie in to the decay heat re- ..M . ' *,1 moval system dror line downstream of valve DH-V-3 located in the 2. ,[,j fuel handling building (Aux. Building) and tie ins to the two rN. _ 4;.] return lines to the cold legs also located in the fuel handling -? building (See Figure 1). New lines will be run through the penetr.ation room to an opening cut in the fuel handling luilding wall and out to a skid located outside the building a*. grade !? level (304'-6"). This skid will contain a new decay heat removal heat exchanger and two pumps. The discharge line for the heat ex-changer will return through tht; opening in the fuel handling building to the return line penetrations. The tie in to ti:e decay heat removal drop line will be made by welding an 3 inch waldolet to the pioe with a full penetration weld, dye penetrate t esting the weld, then cutting t!e hole in the pipe using a ??? plasma ar cutting process to minimize debris and finally welding the new pipe to the wel dolet. A similar procedure would be used ~ for the tie-ins to the two return lines. This procedure should minimize the time that the decay heat removal system will be out of operation. All valves will have two seals with pro-visions for collecting leakage and will be electric motor operated. Additional connections will be provided in the new piping out-165 221

The secondare side of the new decay heat removal heat exchanger m will be cooled by a new separate decay heat closed cooling water system with its own pump, piping and valves (See Figure 2). I...; This sys tern in turn will be cooled by a new decay heat service ~ 1 n.-' cooler. This cooler will be cooled by water f rom the nuclear -3 services river water system. New connections will be made to this sys te:n. ~~ 4 ' 7-The design of this new decay heat removal system will require that the pressurizer level be maintained half full at all times. Alter-atively, a backup makeup and pressure con; il system as des:ribed in Enclosure 8 would serve to satisfy this requi re ent. 2. Structural Fuel Handlinc ?alldino Wall Penetration (Aux.

Excavation outside of the structure will be done by pick and shoven to minimize a possibility of m-s, % 'a 'I damaging any piping or electrical conduit. The outside wall i M N-- at that location is reinforced concrete, 5'0" thick. The com- ~" pressive strength of concrete in this wall is 5000 psi. The o pening will be rectangular in shape, 3' horizontal by 4' vertical. The reinforcing t,ars will be cut on each side of ,[. the opening providing sufficient length exposed to install

-:= Cadwell type splices with the new reinforcing after the in-s:.. stallation of the new pipe is completed. A concrete pour to reclose the penetration will occur following installation of piping runs. Possible Problems Because we have not had access to structural as-built drawings m w e have not been able to arrive at a definite conclusion re-garding the _ ept of penetrat ton of the wall, however, s ome problems can be foreseen. These are outlined below: 1. The exposed reinforcing ends must be of sufficient length to enable splices to be instelled. 165 223 r. s O --r- ' -6= ~. m s- ,-a.,a;--- . man & w.s w o.n e wa mmm _-n%'M-> ... +,,;

This could be construed to imply the leakage has s topped since the iodine activity in samples taken of OTSG-B appears to be decreasing wi th decay. 165 2 % i"; %.m.. . -..... s..... .m .l;... u n.s.. a.. a.e e au*s->.*4.~ ~...

.M Leakace Across the SSCV Coolers

?.:r. r.

r. -

The potential for leakage across the SSCV coolers into the river w ater appears high as these coolers are not designed for high = temperatures or pressures. Ve suggest that the possibility of pressurizing the cooling side above the shell side with the =Z secondary water be considered. If demineralizers are not used to clean up OTSG-8 secondary water and no additional primary to m ~ secondary leakage occurs, the tolerable leakage across the coolers '.'i is less than 0.1 gpm to restrict the river water outfall to Part ~.d~ 20 unrestricted area levels on iodine. This assumes dilution in the OTSG-B by flooding up to the MSIV and a mechanical draft cool-4=.i ing tower blowdown flow of 40000 gpm. ~ _ - - e .n.

SUMMARY

OF B & W SUBMITTAL OF april 10 1979 REGAR01NG NATURAL Cl RCULAT10N .:q -:,.1 .~ .,g Comments on the B&W submittal regarding Natural Circulation: The B&W recommended primary coolant temperature for initla-tion of natural circulation core cooling is 100 F. The ~ reactor cooling system would be put into a water solid con-n:... dition and with reactor coolant system pressure b'etween 20 and 50 psia. B&W recommends both steam generators operating in a water .d solid mode at the time natural circulation is initiated with a 3000 gpm minimum '(5000 gpm preferred) flowrate provided t o each steam generatsr. .r B&W also notes that a much lower reactor coolant pressure can be maintained with solid water secondary side as opposed to m steaming on the secondary side. B&W suggested that operating both steam generators in natural circulation mode in a water solid condition provides an in-crease between 10 and 20 percent in natural circulation flow-rates. For steady-state operation two steam generators operating in natural circulation water solid would not be required. The case of transition, etc., suggests the need for.two steam genera-tors operating instead of only one generator in operation at the time when natural ci rcula tion is initiated. \\m 738 2 4 U-c. .y -~_; ~ .a L. .c -.. w >. - ink-m.-~ - w =-!L- ~-.-s= M -~'S~ ~--~ ME N ' N

~ .p ~ m. P The following B&V ccmments on the transition f rom forced ci rcula-92 tion to natural c!rculation are provided: .i I t was a ssumed that the transition would be made w!th' s.ii :-; both Steam Generator A and 3 operating in a solid mode. The B&W analyses predict a minimum core flow occurring -a about minute into the transient. Stable natural cir-culation flow is expected to occur af ter about 10 minutes Y into the transient. Hot leg temperature changes should ~ be observed at about 5 minutes into the transient. .p. N ConsiderIng the 1000F sub-cool ing cr i ter it.n, the B&W recommenda-tion is made to maintain reactor coolant system pressure as high as practicai at the time the reactor coolant pump is t. ~ t ri ppe d. For example, ooerating at 500 psig permits the 4 reactor cool nt temperature to increase 340 F before the temperature limit would be reached. The following recommendations were nade by B&W regarding the overall transition to natural circulation. 5 1. Reduce Reactor Coolant System temperature to 230 F with Steam Generator A steaming. 2. Slowly fill Steam Generator 3 solid wi th water and begin heat removal until stable temoeratures are reached in the 200-230 F range and :hm proceed to isolate Steam Generator A. 4 165 240 a

. e.' .S.,'*. _, 4 L H.': SPENT FUEL PIT H0DIFl CATION ~ -= 05 W Figure I shows the proposed Spent Fuel Pit Modification. The pur-e pose of tre modification is to dispose of high level auxiliary building waste. Two tanks will be located at the bottom of the p it, 25,000 gal each. Their elevation will be. adjusted by means I of additional beams so that there is a clearance of approx. Ifoot .w .'. -C between the outside of the tank and the concrete structure. Four additional tanks 15.000 gal, each will be suspended from beams M (A) (See Figure 1), supported by the existing rails. The cross 1 I. bracing, consisting of structural L's will be provided to sti f fen the d s uspension structure. != - The tanks were originally intended for middle and low level waste at another nuclear plant (see Q/C discussion for further details). The w tanks will be prefabricated together with their hangers and their supporting beams and the entire assembly consisting of one 15,000 -vm gal, tank, its cross-bracing and the supporting beams will be lowered into the pool. The tanks are fabricated with their - ddles consisting of stiffened steel plates. At this time no information. is available regarding piping and electrical connections. 6 1 165 242
