SUMMARY

This report describes the results of the examination of the fifth capsule removed (Capsule Z) as part of the Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L) Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant (HNP) Reactor Vessel Surveillance Program (RVSP). The objective of the RVSP is to monitor the effects of neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of the reactor vessel materials by testing and evaluation of tension test and Charpy V-notch impact specimens. The program was designed in accordance with the requirements of Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Part 50, (10 CFR 50) Appendix H and ASTM Standard E 185-82.

Capsule Z was removed from the HNP reactor vessel at the end-of-cycle 21 (EOC-21) for testing and evaluation. The capsule received an average fast fluence of 9.45 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV). Based on the calculated twenty-one-cycle-average full power flux, the projected end-of-life (55 EFPY) peak fast fluence at the base metal-clad interface of the HNP reactor vessel is 6.87 x 1019 n/cm2.

The results of the tension tests indicated that the HNP surveillance materials exhibited normal behavior relative to the neutron fluence exposure. The Charpy impact data results for the HNP surveillance materials exhibited the characteristic behavior of transition temperature shifting to a higher temperature as a result of neutron fluence damage and a decrease in upper-shelf energy.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This report presents the examination results of the fifth reactor vessel surveillance capsule (Capsule Z) removed from the Duke Energy Progress's Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant (HNP) reactor vessel.

Note Capsule W was removed at the end-of-cycle 16 (EOC-16) and placed in storage; therefore, Capsule Z is the fifth capsule removed, but the fourth capsule tested for HNP. The capsule was removed and the contents evaluated after being irradiated in the HNP reactor vessel as part of the reactor vessel surveillance program (RVSP) documented in WCAP-10502[1]. Capsule Z was removed at the EOC-21, the first scheduled outage where the capsule estimated fluence reached the projected 80 calendar year peak reactor pressure vessel (RPV) fluence of 9.15 x 1019 n/cm2, which is consistent with the recommendations of MRP-326[2]. This report describes the testing and the post irradiation data obtained from the HNP Capsule Z after receiving an average fluence of 9.45 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV). The data are compared to previous HNP RVSP results from Capsule U[3], Capsule V[4], and Capsule X[5].

The objective of the program is to monitor the effects of neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of reactor vessel materials under actual plant operating conditions. The program was planned to monitor the effects of neutron irradiation on the reactor vessel materials for the 40 year design life of the RPV.

The HNP RVSP was designed and furnished by Westinghouse Electric Corporation and was based on American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard E 185-82[6] and is in compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Part 50, (10 CFR 50) Appendix H[7]. The current HNP RVSP requirement for the current licensing basis (60 calendar years) is 10 CFR 50 Appendix H, ASTM E185-82, and NUREG-1801, Revision 2, per Accession No. ML11293A076[8], requires HNP to test a surveillance capsule at the approximate 80 calendar year fluence. Reactor vessel surveillance Capsule Z is tested to meet this commitment in the HNP CLB RVSP.

2.0 BACKGROUND

The ability of the reactor vessel to resist fracture is a primary factor in ensuring the safety of the primary system in light water-cooled reactors. The reactor vessel beltline region is the most critical region of the vessel because it is exposed to the highest level of neutron irradiation. The general effects of fast neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of low-alloy ferritic steels used in the fabrication of reactor vessels are well characterized and documented. The low-alloy ferritic steels used in the beltline region of reactor vessels exhibit an increase in ultimate and yield strength properties with a corresponding decrease in ductility after irradiation. The most significant mechanical property change in reactor vessel steels is the increase in the ductile-to-brittle transition temperature accompanied by a reduction in the Charpy upper-shelf energy (CvUSE) value.

10 CFR 50 Appendix G, "Fracture Toughness Requirements,"[9] specifies minimum fracture toughness requirements for the ferritic materials of the pressure-retaining components of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) of light water-cooled power reactors and provides specific guidelines for determining the pressure-temperature limitations for operation of the RCPB. The fracture toughness and operational requirements are specified to provide adequate safety margins during any condition of normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences and system hydrostatic tests, to which the pressure boundary may be subjected over its service lifetime. Although the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix G, became effective on August 16, 1973, the requirements are applicable to all boiling and pressurized water-cooled nuclear power reactors, including those under construction or in operation on the effective date.

10 CFR 50, Appendix H, "Reactor Vessel Materials Surveillance Program Requirements," defines the material surveillance program required to monitor changes in the fracture toughness properties of ferritic materials in the reactor vessel beltline region of water-cooled reactors resulting from exposure to neutron irradiation and the thermal environment. Fracture toughness test data are obtained from material specimens contained in capsules that are periodically withdrawn from the reactor vessel. These data permit determination of the conditions under which the vessel can be operated with adequate safety margins against non-ductile fracture throughout its service life.

A method for guarding against non-ductile fracture in reactor vessels is described in Appendix G to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code,Section III, "Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Components"[10] and Section XI, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components[11]. This method uses fracture mechanics concepts and the reference nil-ductility temperature, RTNDT which is defined as the greater of the drop weight nil-ductility transition temperature (in accordance with ASTM E 208-91[12]) or the temperature that is 60°F below that at which the material exhibits 50 ft-lbs and 35 mils lateral expansion. The RTNDT of a given material is used to index that material to a reference stress intensity factor curve (KIR curve), which appears in Appendix G of ASME B&PV Code Section III and Section XI. The KIR curve is a lower bound of dynamic and crack arrest fracture toughness data obtained from several heats of pressure vessel steel.

When a given material is indexed to the KIR curve, allowable stress intensity factors can be obtained for the material as a function of temperature. The operating limits can then be determined using these allowable stress intensity factors.

The RTNDT and, in turn, the operating limits of a nuclear power plant, are adjusted to account for the effects of irradiation on the fracture toughness of the reactor vessel materials. The irradiation embrittlement and the resultant changes in mechanical properties of a given pressure vessel steel can be monitored by a surveillance program in which surveillance capsules containing prepared specimens of the Controlled Document

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page 2-2 reactor vessel materials are periodically removed from the operating nuclear reactor and the specimens are tested. The increase in the Charpy V-notch 30 ft-lb temperature is added to the original RTNDT to adjust it for irradiation embrittlement. The adjusted RTNDT is used to index the material to the KIR curve which, in turn, is used to set operating limits for the nuclear power plant. These new limits take into account the effects of irradiation on the reactor vessel materials.

10 CFR 50, Appendix G, also requires a minimum initial CvUSE of 75 ft-lbs for all beltline region materials unless it is demonstrated that lower values of upper-shelf fracture energy will provide an adequate margin of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by ASME Section XI, Appendix G. No action is required for a material that does not meet the initial 75 ft-lbs requirement provided that the irradiation embrittlement does not cause the CvUSE to drop below 50 ft-lbs. The regulations specify that if the CvUSE drops below 50 ft-lbs, it must be demonstrated, in a manner approved by the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, that the lower values will provide adequate margins of safety.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page 3-1 3.0 SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The reactor vessel surveillance program for HNP includes six capsules designed to monitor the effects of neutron and thermal environment on the materials of the reactor pressure vessel core region. The capsules, which were inserted into the reactor vessel before initial plant startup, were positioned inside the reactor vessel between the neutron shielding pads and the vessel wall at the locations shown in Figure 3-1.

The six capsules, designed to be placed in holders attached to the neutron shield pads, are positioned near the peak axial and azimuthal neutron flux. WCAP-10502 includes a full description of the capsule locations and design. Capsule Z was irradiated in the 340° position during the time of irradiation in the reactor vessel (cycles 1 through 21).

Capsule Z was removed during the twenty-first refueling shutdown (EOC 21) of the HNP plant. The capsule contained Charpy V-notch (CVN) impact test specimens fabricated from one base metal plate (SA-533, Grade B, Class 1), heat-affected-zone (HAZ) material, and a weld metal representative of the HNP reactor vessel beltline region intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld. The tensile test specimens were fabricated from the same base metal plate and weld metal. In addition, specimens were included for determining the fracture toughness of both the base metal plate and the weld metal. The number of specimens of each material contained in Capsule Z is described in Table 3-1, and the location of the individual specimens within the capsule is shown in Figure 3-2. The chemical compositions of the surveillance materials in Capsule Z, obtained from the original surveillance program report[1] are described in Table 3-2. In addition, six irradiated base metal and weld metal Charpy specimens from Capsule U were previously analyzed by emission spectrograph to determine the copper and nickel contents[3]. The results of these analyses are presented in Table 3-3. The heat treatment of the surveillance materials in Capsule Z is presented in Table 3-4.

All base metal specimens were machined from the 1/4-thickness (1/4T) location of the plate material after stress relieving. The base metal, HAZ material, and weld metal specimens were oriented such that the longitudinal axis of the specimen was either parallel or perpendicular to the principal working direction of the plate.

Capsule Z contained dosimeter wires of copper, iron, nickel, and aluminum-0.15 weight percent cobalt (cadmium-shielded and unshielded) and cadmium-shielded neptunium-237 (237Np) and uranium-238 (238U). The location of these dosimeters within Capsule Z is shown in Figure 3-2.

Thermal monitors fabricated from two low-melting alloys were included in the capsule. The thermal monitors were sealed in Pyrex tubes and inserted in spacers located in Figure 3-2. The eutectic alloys and their melting points are listed below:

Westinghouse Electric Corporation, as part of the development of the HNP RVSP, performed the testing of the unirradiated surveillance material. The details of the testing procedures are described in Westinghouse Electric Corporation Report WCAP-10502[1]. The unirradiated mechanical properties for the HNP RVSP materials are summarized in Appendices B and C of this report.

The original unirradiated Charpy V-notch impact data were evaluated based on hand-fit Charpy curves generated using engineering judgment. These data were re-evaluated herein using a hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program, and the results of the re-evaluation are presented in Appendix C. In addition, Appendix D contains a comparison of the Charpy V-notch shift results for each surveillance material, hand-fit versus hyperbolic tangent curve-fit.

(BWXT)

Lynchburg Technology Center (LTC)[13].

5.1 Capsule Disassembly and Inventory After capsule disassembly, the contents of Capsule Z were inventoried and found to be consistent with the surveillance program report inventory (WCAP-10502). The capsule contained a total of 60 standard Charpy V-notch specimens, nine (9) tensile specimens, twelve (12) 0.5T compact fracture specimens, one (1) bend bar specimen, four (4) dosimetry blocks, and three (3) temperature monitors.

5.2 Thermal Monitors The low-melting point (579°F and 590°F) eutectic alloys contained in Capsule Z were examined to reveal the shape of the monitors and examined for evidence of melting. No indication of melting was observed (see Figure 5-1). Therefore, based on this examination, the maximum temperature that the capsule test specimens were exposed to was less than 579°F.

Tests were performed at 100°F, 175°F, 200°F, 250°F, 275°F, 300°F, and the HNP operating temperature (550°F). The tests were performed using a MTS 25 ton/55 kip Model #312.31 Serial #435 servo-hydraulic test machine. The test machine was interfaced with the MTS FlexTest controller. The gripping devices used were a pin and clevis design fabricated specifically for RVSP tension specimens. A BWXT certified MTS program TestWare Elite was used to control the machine and acquire the data. All tension tests were run using a constant free running crosshead speed of 0.01875 inch per minute throughout the entirety of the test. The tension testing was performed in accordance with the applicable requirements of ASTM Standard E 8-96a[14] and ASTM Standard E 21-92[15].

Impact energy, lateral expansion, and percent shear fracture were measured at numerous test temperatures and recorded for each specimen. The impact energy was measured using a certified Satec Sl-lK Impact tester (traceable to NIST Standard) with a striker velocity of 5.18 m/s (16.99 ft/sec) and 240 ft-lb of available energy and an accuracy of +/-1 ft-lb or 5% of the dial reading, whichever is larger. The lateral expansion was measured using a certified dial indicator. The specimen percent shear was estimated by examining high resolution fracture face images taken on a certified digital microscope and comparison with the visual standards presented in ASTM Standard E 23-91. Test temperatures were controlled to within +/-2°F per ASTM E23 within circulating oil heating and alcohol cooling baths using thermocouples certified to ASTM E230. Charpy verification specimens, along with a completed questionnaire are shipped to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The specimens results are analyzed by NIST and average values were found to be within acceptable ranges at the energy levels tested, in accordance with ASTM E23 standards.

The results of the Charpy V-notch impact testing are shown in Tables 5-2 through 5-5 and Figures 5-20 through 5-23. The curves were generated using a hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program, CVGRAPH, Version 5.0.1, a certified hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program, to produce the best-fit curve through the data. The hyperbolic tangent (TANH) function (test response, i.e., absorbed energy, lateral expansion, and percent shear fracture, "R, as a function of test temperature, "T") used to evaluate the surveillance data is as follows:

= + tanh [0

]

The Charpy V-notch data was entered, and the coefficients A, B, T0, and C are determined by the program minimizing the sum of the errors squared (least-squares fit) of the data points about the fitted curve.

Using these coefficients and the above TANH function, a smooth curve is generated through the data for interpretation of the material transition region behavior. The coefficients determined for irradiated materials in Capsule Z are shown in Table 5-6.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page 6-1 6.0 NEUTRON FLUENCE 6.1 Objectives and Background Framatome Inc. has developed a calculation based fluence analysis methodology that can be used to accurately predict the fast neutron fluence in the reactor vessel using surveillance capsule dosimetry, cavity dosimetry, or both to verify the uncertainties in the fluence predictions.[17] The methodology was developed through a full-scale benchmark experiment that was performed at the Davis-Besse Unit 1 reactor.[17] The results of the benchmark experiment demonstrated that the accuracy of a fluence analysis that employs the Framatome methodology was unbiased and has a precision well within the NRC-suggested limit of 20%.[17],[18]

The Framatome methodology was used to calculate the neutron fluence exposure to the pressure vessel, certain vessel welds in the beltline region, and surveillance Capsule Z of the HNP reactor vessel. The fast neutron fluences (E > 1 Me V) at those points were calculated in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. NRC Regulatory Guide 1.190,[18] as described in detail in the Framatome fluence topical report, BAW-2241P, Revision 1.[17]

The energy-dependent flux at the capsule was used to determine the calculated activity of each dosimeter.

The calculated activities were adjusted to account for known biases (photofission and U-235 impurity in the U-238), and compared directly to the measured activities. It is noted that the measurements are not used in any way to determine the magnitude of the flux or the fluence. The measurements are used only to show that the calculational results are reasonable and to show that the HNP results are consistent with the Framatome benchmark database of uncertainties.

Explicit values of the fast fluence were computed for the following locations:

Surveillance Capsule "Wetted" Surface for the HNP Reactor Vessel Beltline Materials Clad-Base Metal Interface for the HNP Reactor Vessel Beltline Materials Clad-Base Metal Interface Maximum Peak Location 1/4T and 3/4T at Maximum Peak Location where T is the reactor vessel thickness.

The multi-cycle-average full power flux at each of these locations was calculated for cycles 9 through 21, and the corresponding fluence at each location was then calculated by computing the product of each flux by the appropriate effective full power time, in seconds.

Reactor vessel fluence can be projected to longer time periods in order to estimate the total fluence on the locations of interest. This projection is performed by assuming that the average fluence at the location of interest for the projected time is at equilibrium at the average fluence rate (flux) of the last cycle analyzed for a given location of interest. This assumption is acceptable as long as future core configurations are equivalent to the core design of the last cycle analyzed. The end of life (license) fluences are determined by taking the cumulative fluence and then projecting forward by utilizing the fluence rate (flux) of the last cycle analyzed for a given location of interest.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page 7-1 7.0 DISCUSSION OF CAPSULE RESULTS 7.1 Unirradiated Material Property Data The base metal and weld metal were selected for inclusion in the HNP surveillance program in accordance with the criteria in effect at the time the program was designed. The applicable selection criterion was based on the unirradiated properties only. A review of the original unirradiated material properties of the reactor vessel core beltline region materials indicated no significant deviation from expected properties except in the case of the upper-shelf energy properties of the RVSP base metal in the transverse (TL) orientation which was below the required minimum initial Charpy upper-shelf energy (CvUSE) of 75 ft-lbs. No action is required for a material that does not meet the initial 75 ft-lbs requirement provided that the irradiation embrittlement does not cause the CvUSE to drop below 50 ft-lbs. Based on the predicted end-of-service peak neutron fluence value at the 1/4T vessel wall location and the copper content of the RVSP base metal, it was predicted that the end-of-service CvUSE would not be below 50 ft-lbs for the RVSP base metal.

The unirradiated mechanical properties for the HNP RVSP materials are summarized in Appendices B and C of this report.

7.2 Irradiated Property Data 7.2.1 Tensile Properties Table 7-1 compares the irradiated and unirradiated tensile properties. Review of the surveillance tensile test data indicates that the ultimate strength and yield strength changes in the base metal plate as a result of irradiation and the corresponding changes in ductility are consistent with the expected trends in irradiated materials. The changes in tensile properties for the surveillance weld metal, as a result of irradiation, are also consistent with the expected trends in irradiated materials.

The general behavior of the tensile properties as a function of neutron irradiation is an increase in both ultimate and yield strength and a decrease in ductility as measured by both total elongation and reduction in area. The most significant observation from these data is that the base metal with the transverse orientation exhibited slightly greater sensitivity to neutron irradiation than the weld metal.

However, the measured irradiated CvUSE value for the weld metal remains above the required 50 ft-lb limit. The measured percent reduction in CvUSE for the base metal surveillance data in the longitudinal (LT) and transverse (TL) orientations and the heat-affected-zone material are less than the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 predictions.

The radiation-induced changes in toughness of all the HNP surveillance materials are summarized in Table 7-4. The original unirradiated and Capsule U and V Charpy impact data were evaluated based on hand-fit Charpy curves generated using engineering judgement. These data were replotted and re-evaluated in the Capsule X report[5] using a hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program to be consistent with the Capsule X Charpy curves and evaluations. The results of the re-evaluations are presented in Appendix C. In addition, Appendix D contains a comparison of the Charpy V-notch transition shift results for each surveillance material, hand-fit versus hyperbolic tangent curve-fit. Comparisons of the unirradiated and irradiated Charpy V-notch impact curves are presented in Figures 7-1 through 7-4.

SUMMARY

OF RESULTS The analysis of the reactor vessel material contained in the fifth surveillance capsule, Capsule Z, removed for evaluation as part of the HNP Reactor Vessel Surveillance Program, led to the following conclusions:

1. The capsule received an average fast neutron fluence of 9.45 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV).
2. Based on the calculated 21-cycle-average full power flux, the projected end-of-life (55 EFPY) peak fast fluence at the base metal-clad interface of the HNP reactor vessel is 6.87 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV). The corresponding fluence at the outside surface vessel wall in this peak location is 4.22 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV).
3. The 30 ft-lb transition temperature for the base metal plate, heat no. B4197-2, longitudinal (LT) orientation, increased 120.8°F after the irradiation to 9.45 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV). In addition, the CvUSE for this material decreased by 27.6%.
4. The 30 ft-lb transition temperature for the base metal plate, heat no. B4197-2, transverse (TL) orientation, increased 123.2°F after the irradiation to 9.45 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV). In addition, the CvUSE for this material decreased by 25.7%.
5. The 30 ft-lb transition temperature for the weld metal, weld wire heat 5P6771/flux lot 0342, increased 131.1°F after the irradiation to 9.45 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV). In addition, the CvUSE for this material decreased by 31.9%.
6. The measured 30 ft-lb transition temperature shifts for the surveillance materials are greater than the values predicted using Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. When the margin (2) is added to the predicted shifts, the predicted 30 ft-lb transition temperature shift values are non-conservative for the Base Metal longitudinal and transverse surveillance materials and the Weld metal surveillance material.
7. The measured percent decrease in CvUSE for the surveillance weld metal is slightly greater than the values predicted using Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 (3.9%). However, this value remains above the required 50 ft-lb limit.
8. The measured percent decrease in CvUSE for the surveillance base metal in the longitudinal (LT) and transverse (TL) orientations were less than the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 prediction.

The capsule locations within the HNP reactor vessel are shown in Figure A-3.

A.2 HNP Reactor Pressure Vessel The HNP reactor pressure vessel was fabricated by the Chicago Bridge & Iron Company. The HNP reactor vessel beltline region consists of two shells, containing four heats of base metal plate, four longitudinal weld seams, and one circumferential weld seam. Table A-2 presents a description of the HNP reactor vessel beltline materials including their copper and nickel chemical contents and their unirradiated mechanical properties. The heat treatments of the beltline materials are presented in Table A-3. The locations of the materials within the reactor vessel beltline region are shown in Figures A-1 and A-2.

A.3 Surveillance Material Data Selection The data used to select the materials for the specimens in the surveillance program, in accordance with ASTM Standard E 185-82, are shown in Table A-2. Based on the initial RTNDT value, copper and nickel contents and the projected end-of-life fluences, the reactor vessel intermediate shell plate B4197-2 is considered to be the limiting reactor vessel beltline material and has been used in the HNP reactor vessel surveillance program (RVSP). The surveillance weld used in the HNP RVSP was fabricated using the wire heat 5P6771 and Linde 124 flux lot 0342 which is identical to the intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld in the HNP reactor vessel.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page E-1 APPENDIX E FLUENCE ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY The primary tool used in the determination of the flux and fluence exposure to the welds, plates, and surveillance capsule specimens is the two-dimensional discrete ordinates transport code, DORT.[E-1] The primary technique used to verify the accuracy and uncertainty in the flux and fluence is a benchmark to measured data. Capsule Z dosimetry was used in benchmark comparisons for the HNP cycles analyzed in this analysis.

The HNP surveillance capsule Z dosimetry is located in the capsule holder attached to the neutron pad at 20° (off of the major axis). The power distributions in the analyzed cycles irradiations were symmetric both in and Z. That is, the axial power shape is roughly the same for any angle and, conversely, that the azimuthal power shape is the same for any height. This means that the flux at some point (R,, Z) can be considered to be a separable function of (R, ) and (R, Z). Therefore, the analyzed cycles irradiation can be modeled using the standard Framatome synthesis procedures. [E-8]

Figure E-1 depicts the analytical procedure that is used to determine the fluence accumulated over the cycles analyzed. As shown in the figure, the analysis is divided into several tasks:

generation of the neutron source, development of the DORT geometry models, calculation of the macroscopic material cross sections, synthesis of the results, estimation of the calculational bias, the calculational uncertainty, and the final fluence.

Each of these tasks is discussed in greater detail in the following sections.

Generation of Neutron Source The time-average space-and energy-dependent neutron source for cycles analyzed was calculated using the SORREL code.[E-2] The effects of burnup on the spatial distribution of the neutron source are accounted for by calculating the cycle average fission spectrum for each of the four significant fissile isotopes on an assembly-by-assembly basis, and by determining the cycle-average specific neutron emission rate. This data is then used with the normalized time-weighted, average pin-by-pin relative power density (RPD) distribution to determine the space and energy-dependent neutron source. The azimuthally averaged, time-averaged, axial power shape in the peripheral assemblies is used with the fissile nuclide-weighted, fission spectrum of the peripheral assemblies to determine the neutron source for the axial DORT run. These two neutron source distributions provide input to DORT as indicated in Figure E-1.

Development of the Geometrical Models The system geometry models for DORT were developed using standard Framatome interval size and configuration guidelines. The R model extends radially from the center of the core to the concrete bioshield and azimuthally from the major axis to 45°. The axial model extends radially from the center of the core to approximately two feet into the concrete bio-shield and axially from approximately 1.5 feet Controlled Document

Framatome Inc.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page E-2 below the active core region to approximately the top of the nozzles above the active core region. In all cases, cold dimensions are used. The geometrical models either meet or exceeded all guidance criteria concerning interval size that are provided in Regulatory Guide 1.190. [E-4] The geometry models serve as input to the DORT code as indicated in Figure E-1. These models will be used in all subsequent fluence analyses that may be performed by Framatome for Harris Nuclear Plant Unit 1.

Calculation of Macroscopic Material Cross Sections In accordance with BAW-2241P-A, [E-8] the BUGLE-96 [E-5] cross section library is used. The GIP code [E-6] was used to calculate the macroscopic energy-dependent cross sections for all materials used in the analysis - radially from the core out through the cavity and into the concrete and axially from approximately 1.5 feet below the active core region to approximately the top of the nozzles above the active core region. The ENDF/B-VI dosimeter reaction cross sections are used to generate the response functions that are used to calculate the DORT-calculated saturated specific activities. The cross section sets generated by GIP provide input to the DORT code as indicated in Figure E-1.

DORT Analysis The cross sections, geometry, and appropriate source were combined to create a set of DORT models (R and RZ) for the analyses for cycles 9-21. Each R DORT run utilized a P3 Legendre expansion of scattering cross sections, seventy directions (S10), and the appropriate boundary conditions. All outer boundaries employed vacuum boundary conditions. A theta-weighted flux extrapolation model was used, and all other requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.190 [E-4] that relate to the various DORT parameters were either met or exceeded for all DORT runs.

Synthesized Three-Dimensional Results The DORT analyses produce two sets of two-dimensional flux distributions, one for channels of vertical cylinders and one for radial planes. The vertical cylinders, which are referred to as RZ planes, are defined as planes bounded axially by approximately 1.5 feet below the active core region and the top of the nozzles and radially by the center of the core out into the concrete cavity shield. The radial (horizontal) planes, referred to as the R planes, are defined as the planes bounded radially by the center of the core and a point located in the concrete cavity shield and azimuthally by the major axis and the adjacent 45° radius. The vessel flux varies significantly in all three cylindrical-coordinate directions (R,, Z). Since the three-dimensional flux is a separable function, [E-8] the two-dimensional data sets are mathematically combined to estimate the flux at all three-dimensional points (R,, Z) of interest. The synthesis procedure outlined in Regulatory Guide 1.190 [E-4] forms the basis for the Framatome flux-synthesis process.

The extrapolation of neutron fluence is discussed in Section 6.1.

Calculated Activities and Measured Activities The calculated activities for each dosimeter type d were determined using the following equation:

The type of bias correction factors (Bd) in the specific activity calculation above are listed in Table E-1.

Table E-1. Bias Correction Factors Dosimeter Type Bias Activation (n, p),(n,)

Short Half Life Fission Photofission Impurities The two fission related bias factors are photofission and 235U impurity which both enhance the 137Cs fission product from the 238U(n,f) fission process. A photofission factor is applied to correct for the fact that some of the 137Cs atoms present in the dosimeter were produced by (, f) reactions. The impurity correction for the 235U that is in the 238U dosimeters is accounted for in the defined response function.

Dosimeter activities are calculated on a cycle by cycle basis and the activity is renormalized based power history for subsequent cycles. Thus, a short half-life factor is not applied.

C/M Ratios The following explanation defines the terms measurement (M) and calculation (C) as used in this analysis.

Measurement: The meaning of the term measurement as used by Framatome is the measurement of the physical quantity of the dosimeter (specific activity) that responded to the fluence. The term is not associated with a measured fluence, which is not measured, but unfolded by means of a calculational procedure. For example, an iron dosimeter measurements refers to specific activity of 54Mn (Ci/g), which is the product isotope from the 54Fe dosimeter reaction over irradiation time:

Calculation: The calculational methodology produces two primary results: the calculated dosimeter activities and the neutron flux at all points of interest. The meaning of the term calculation as used by Framatome is the calculated dosimeter activity. The calculated activities are determined in such a way that they are directly comparable to the measurement values. That is, saturated values are determined by the DORT calculation. When the effects of time are included with a non-saturation factor (NSF), the values are directly comparable to the measured values. ENDF/B-VI based dosimeter reaction cross sections [E-5] and response functions were used in determining the calculated values for each individual dosimeter. It should be stressed that the calculated values in the Framatome approach [E-8] are independent of the measurement values.

Uncertainty The fluence rates, time-averaged flux values, and thereby the fluence values throughout the HNP reactor and vessel, were calculated with the DORT [E-1] discrete ordinates computer code using three dimensional synthesis methods. The basic theory for synthesis is described in Section 3.0 of BAW-2241P. [E-8] The DORT three-dimensional synthesis results were the bases for the fluence predictions using the Framatome Semi-Analytical (calculational) methodology.

The uncertainties in the HNP flux values were evaluated to ensure that the greater than 1.0 MeV values are accurate (with no discernible bias) and have a mean standard deviation that is consistent with the Framatome benchmark database of uncertainties. Consistency between the fluence uncertainties in the updated calculations for the cycles in this analysis, and those in the Framatome benchmark database, ensure that the vessel fluence predictions are consistent with the 10 CFR 50.61 [E-9] Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) screening criteria, and the Regulatory Guide 1.99 [E-3] radiation embrittlement evaluations.

The verification of the fluence uncertainty for HNP includes:

estimating the uncertainties in the Capsule Z dosimetry measurements, estimating the uncertainties in the Capsule Z benchmark comparison of calculations to measurements, evaluating design and operational changes, estimating the uncertainties in the cycles 9 through 21 reactor vessel fluence, and determining if the specific measurement and benchmark uncertainties for Capsule Z are consistent with the Framatome database of generic uncertainties in the measurements and calculations.

The embrittlement evaluations in Regulatory Guide 1.99 [E-3] and those in 10 CFR 50.61 [E-9] for the PTS screening criteria apply a margin term to the reference temperatures. The margin term includes the product of a confidence factor of 2.0 and the mean embrittlement standard deviation. The factor of 2.0 implies a very high level of confidence in the fluence uncertainty as well as the uncertainty in the other variables contributing to the embrittlement. The eleven dosimeter measurements from HNP Capsule Z Controlled Document

Framatome Inc.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page E-5 analyses directly support this high level of confidence. Moreover, the evaluation of the HNP Capsule Z dosimeter measurement uncertainties found that they are consistent with the Framatome database.

Therefore, the measurement-to-calculational uncertainties in the updated fluence predictions for HNP are supported by 728 additional dosimeter measurements and 39 benchmark comparisons of calculations to measurements as shown in Appendix A of the topical. [E-8] The calculational uncertainties are also supported by the fluence sensitivity evaluation of the uncertainties in the physical and operational parameters, which are included in the vessel fluence uncertainty. [E-8]

The Framatome generic uncertainty in the capsule dosimetry measurements has been determined to be unbiased and has an estimated standard deviation of 7.0 percent for the qualified set of dosimeters. Part of the evaluation for the HNP Capsule Z dosimetry measurement uncertainties was to determine if any biases were evident and to estimate the standard deviation. The dosimetry measurements were found to be appropriately calibrated to standards traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Moreover, the measurement methodology has been certified by NIST to be unbiased as a result of comparative tests in a reference field. [E-8] Thus, no bias was found in the dosimetry measurements.

The mean measurement uncertainty associated with Capsule Z is shown below:

Cycle

(%)

Capsule Z 6.05 This measurement standard deviation for the random uncertainties was determined from Equation 7.6 in the topical. [E-8] The value indicates that there is consistency with the Framatome database. Consequently, when the Framatome database is updated, the HNP dosimetry measurement uncertainties may be combined with the other 728 dosimeters. Since the Capsule Z measurements are consistent with the Framatome database, it is estimated that the HNP dosimeter measurement uncertainty may be represented by the Framatome database standard deviation of 7.0 percent. Based on the Framatome database, there appears to be a 95 percent level of confidence that 95 percent of the HNP1 Capsule Z dosimetry measurements, for fluence reactions above 1.0 MeV, are within +/-14.2 percent of the true values.

The Framatome generic uncertainty for benchmark comparisons of capsule dosimetry calculations relative to the measurements indicates that any benchmark bias in the greater than 1.0 MeV results is too small to be uniquely identified. The estimated standard deviation between the calculations and measurements is 9.9 percent. This implies that the root mean square deviation between the Framatome calculations of the HNP Capsule Z dosimetry and the measurements should be approximately 9.9 percent in general and bounded by +/-20.0 percent for a 95 percent confidence interval with thirty-nine independent benchmarks.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page F-1 APPENDIX F CAPSULE SURVEILLANCE DATA CREDIBILITY ASSESSMENT Upon the removal of a surveillance capsule, an assessment, which follows the methodology presented in NRC Generic Letter 92-01 and RPV Integrity Assessment,[F-1] must be performed to determine credibility of the plant-specific data. The results from the plant-specific surveillance program must be integrated into reactor vessel integrity calculations if the plant-specific surveillance data has been deemed credible as judged by the following criteria:

1. The materials in the surveillance capsules must be those which are controlling material with regard to radiation embrittlement.
2. Scatter in the plots of Charpy energy versus temperature for the irradiated and unirradiated conditions must be small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature unambiguously.
3. Where there are two or more sets of surveillance data from one reactor, the scatter of RTNDT values must be less than 28F for welds and 17F for base metals. Even if the range in the capsule fluences is large (two or more orders of magnitude), the scatter may not exceed twice those values.
4. The irradiation temperature of the Charpy specimens in the capsule must equal the vessel wall temperature at the cladding/base metal interface within +/-25F.
5. The surveillance data for the correlation monitor material in the capsule, if present, must fall within the scatter band of the data base for the material.

The surveillance data deemed credible according to the criteria specified above must be used to determine a material-specific value of CF for use in the following equation:

=

A material specific value of CF is determined from the following equation:

= []

2 Where:

RTNDT is measured value of RTNDT from the surveillance data ff is fluence factor for each surveillance data point For cases in which the results from a credible-plant-specific surveillance program are used, the value of to be used is 14F for welds, and 8.5F for base metals; however the value of may not exceed one-half RTNDT.

ANP-3798NP Revision 0 Analysis of Capsule Z Duke Energy Shearon Harris Nuclear Power Plant Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program Page F-3 Criterion 4 The HNP-1 capsules are positioned inside the reactor vessel between the neutron shielding pads and the vessel wall. Therefore, the irradiation temperature of the HNP-1 capsule specimens is considered to be within 25°F of the reactor vessel inside surface cold-leg temperature.

Criterion 5 The HNP-1 plant-specific RVSP program does not include a correlation monitor plate material.

Therefore, this criterion is not applicable with respect to HNP-1 surveillance data analysis.

Based on the above evaluation of the five criteria for assessing credibility that is from Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2[F-3] and 10 CFR 50.61[F-4], the HNP-1 surveillance base metal and weld metal are considered not credible.

F.2 Table CF Conservatism Assessment In accordance with the methodology presented in NRC Generic Letter 92-01 and RPV Integrity Assessment,[F-1] because the surveillance data for base metal B4197-2 and weld wire heat 5P6771 are non-credible, the CF value is calculated from the generic tables in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2/10 CFR 50.61 unless the CF determined from the surveillance data is significantly greater than that from the generic tables, indicating the Table CF is non-conservative. To determine if the generic Table CF is non-conservative, the following steps are performed:

1. Determine the CF from the generic tables based on the surveillance specimen chemical composition; use this CF to determine the predicted RTNDT for each capsule:

=,...

2. Determine the difference between the predicted RTNDT and the measured (temperature/ratio adjusted, if required) RTNDT.

If the predicted RTNDT value is 2 standard deviations (i.e., 34°F for base metals and 56°F for weld metals) or greater than the (temperature/ratio adjusted) measured RTNDT, the Table CF is considered non-conservative. When the Table CF is determined to be non-conservative, the CF determined from the non-credible surveillance data is used in the assessment of reactor vessel integrity.

The above process produced results listed in Table F-2 and the generic Table CFs for base metal B4197-2 and weld wire heat 5P6771 are non-conservative.
