i L I-4 p 1. INTRODUCTION

                 ~ This.. report" describes the results of the examination of the first capsule of Duke' Power Company's Oconee Nuclear Station. thit 2 reactor vessel surveil-if                . lance program. ' The objective of the program is to monitor the ef f ects of neu-tron irradiation on'the tensile end impact properties of reactor pressure ves-sel materials under actual operating conditions. The surveillance progthm for Oconee -2 was designed and furnished by Babcock & Wilcox; it is described in BAW-10006A.I The program was planned to conitor the effects of neutron irrad-lation on the reactor vessel materials for the 40-year design life of the re-actor pressure
  • vessel.

i- [ The surveillance program for Oconee 2 was designed in accordance with E185-66 and thus is not in compliance with Appendi es G and H to 10 CFR 50 since the requi renents did not exist at the time the program was designed. Because of this di f f erence, a !dit 'onal . tests and evaluations were required to ensure meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendixes C and II. The recocenenda-t ion.s for the future operation of Oconee ? is -luded in this report do ce= ply with these requirecents. 1-1 gekock & Wilcox

2. EACKGROUND The ability of the reactor pressure vessel to resist fracture is the-primary factor. in ensuring the safety of the primary system in light water ~ cooled re-actors. . The beltline reglen of the reactor vessel is the most critical re-
                              ~

gion of the vessel-because it is exposed to neut ron irradiation. The general

            ~ ef f ee,ts of fast neut ron irradiation on . the mechanical properties of such low-alloy ferritic steels as SA508 Class 2 forgings used in the fabrication of t he' Oconee 2 reactor vessel are well characterized and documented in the lit-erature.       The low-alloy ferritic steels used in the beltline region of reactor vessels exhibit an increase.in ultimate and yield strength properties with a cor responding decrease in ductility af ter irradiation. In reactor pressure l

veissel steels, the most serious mechanical property change is the increase Ln temperature for.the transition from brittle to ductile fracture accompanied by ,. a reduct ion in the upper she'If impact strength. AppenJIx G to 10 CFR 50, " Fracture Toughness Requirements," specifies minimum fracture toughness requirements for the ferritic materials of the pressure-

        - retaining coeponents of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) of water-coolea power reactors and provides specific guidelines for determining the pressure-temperature limitations on operation of the RCPB.         The toughness and operational requirements are specified to provide adequate safety margins dur-ing any cendition of: normal operation, including anticipated operational oc-t eurrences and system hydrostatic tests, to which the pressure boundary may be
      . subleeted over its service lifetime. Although the requirements of Appendix G to 10 CFR 50 became effective on August 13, 1973, the requirements are appli-cable to all ' boiling' and pressurized water-cooled nuclear power reactors, in-cluding those under construction or in operation on the ef fective date.

Appendix it to .10 CFR 50, " Reactor Vessel Matericls Surveillance Program Re-quirements," defines the material surveillance program requ, ired to monitor changes in the fracture toughness properties of ferritic materials in the re-actor vessel beltline ragion of water-cooled reactors resulting f rom exposure 2-1 Babcock & Wilax t- .

  • to neutron irradiation and 'the thermal environcent. Fracture toughness test data'are obtained from naterial specimens withdrawn periodically fron the re-
            ..ctor' vessel. These data will permit detereination of the conditions under
         . unien the vessel can be operated with adequate safety margins against fracture throughaat i ts service life.

A nethed for guarding against brit t le f racture' in reactor pressure vessels is described in Appendix G.to the ASME boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III. This met hod utilizes f racture cechanics can'cepts and the reference nil-ducti,11ty temperature, RTNDT' ' * " "* ""

The RT NDT o a g ven ma crial is used to index that msterini to a      reference stress intensity. factor curve (K 73 curve), wlitch ap-pears in Appendix C of ASME Section III.          The K IR curve is a I wer bound of dynario. 3 tatie, and crack arrest fracture toughness results obtained from several heats of; pressure vessel steel.         When a given material is indexed to the V;       curve, allowable . stress intensity factors can be obtained for this ma-
criai as a function of temperature. Allowable operating Ifnits can then be art errined using t hese allowable st ress intensity factors.

3. SURVEILi>5CE PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The surveillance program for Ocence 2 comprises six surveillance capsules de-
                . signed to monitor the ef fects of neutron and thermal environment on the mate-riats' 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 thermal ~ shield and the vessel wall at the locations shown in Figure 3-1. The capsules, placed two in each holder ts.be, are positioned near the peak axial and azimuthal neutron flux. KAW-
               = 10006A f r.cludes a . full description of capsule locations and design. '

Capsule 0Cll-C was removed during the . first refueling shutdown of Oconee 2. This capcule contained Charpy V-notch impact and tensile specimens fabricated of SA502, Class 2 steel, weld metal, and correlation steel. The specimen con-tained in the capsule as described in Table 3-1, and the chemistry and heat-treatreat of the surveillance naterial are described in Table 3-2. The capsule also contained longitudinal- Charpy V-notch specimens from correla-tion naterial obtained f rom Plate 02 of the USAEC Heavy Section Steel Technol-ogy progran. This 12-inch-thick plate of ASTM 533, Grade B, Class 1 steel was pralnced by the' Luken Steel Company . (heat A-1195-1) and heat-treated by combus-t ion ::ngineering. ' The chemistry and heat treatment of the correlation cate-rfal are described in Table 3-3. All test specimens were machined from the 1/4-thickness location of the plates.

            - Charry V-notch and tensile speci= ens from the vessel material were oriented
               -i th their longitudinal axes parallel to the principal' rolling direction of the plate; .the speelnens were also oriented transverse to the prit.cipal roll-Ing direction.

Capsule OCII-C centained dosimeter wires, described as follows: 3-1 Babcock a. Wilcox

4. PRELF. RADIATION IESTS Unirradiated material was evaluated for ti.o purposes: (1) to establish a baseline of data to which irradiated propt-ties data could be referenced, and

(.'s to. determine those materials properties to the extent practical from avail-able mat erial, as required for ecepliance with Appendixes C and H to 10 CFR 50. 4.1. -Tensile Tests Tvn e. l l e 1.pecimens we re fabricated fro:n the reactor vessel shell course plate and we ld met al . Ths- subsize specierns were 4.25 inche.' long with a reduced oction I.750. Im het long by 0.35' inch in diameter. They were tested on a St.000-lb-load cap.n ity universal test machine at a crosshead speed of 0.005 inch per minute. Test conditions wre in accordance with the applicable re-

        <psiren. nt s of ASIM A370-72.

For each material type and/or condition, six e rec trwns in groups of three were tested at both room te=perature and 570F. An l.VDI-t ype cla=p-end s crr ~on exten.ometer was used to determine the 0.2% vield point. 1he t ension-compression load cell used had a certified accuracy

The specimen support arm, which is linked to the pneunatie t'ransfer techanism, is instru=ented with a contacting thermo-couple allowing instantaneous specimen temperatirre determinations. Specimens were transferred f ron the conditioning cham!:er to the test frame anvil and pre-elsely pretest-positione.1 with a fully automated, remotely controlled apparatus. 4_; Babcock & Wilcox

5. POSTIRRADIATION TESTS 5.1. Thermal Monitors-Surveillance capsule OCII-C contained three temperature monitor holder tubes, each containing five fusible alloys with different melting points ranging from 558 to 621F.

All the ther=al nonitors at '558, 580, 588, and 610F had =elted, while the moni tor at 621F remained in its original configuration as initially placed in the capsule. From these data it was concluded that the irradiated specimens had been exposed to a maximun temperature in the range of 588 to less than 610F during the reactor vessel operating period. These high temper-atures are not characteristic of operating conditions and probably occurred during reactor startup hot-functional tests. There appeared to be no signif-icant temperature gradient along: the capsule length. 5.2. Chemical An.nlysis two broken impact specimen halves taken at random from each of the two unir-radicited base metals (heats AAW-163 and AW-164) and the weld metal (WF-209-1A) were analyzed for nickel, copper, phosphorus, and sulfur contents to ver-ify original mill test report data. To minimize possible scatter in data due t o surf ace condi t ions, specimens were mechanically cleaned prior to analysis, four sets of copper analysis data were obtained from each of the six specimen halves, and three analyses were performed for the remaining elements (nickel, phosphorus, and sulfur). the following analytical techniques were employed:

1. Nickel and copper content B5W Standard Analytical Methodby x-ray XR-2.fluorescence analysis using 2.

phosphorus content by colorimetric absorption measurement us - ing " molybdenum blue complex" ~ solutions in accordance with ASTM E350-72 and B&W Standard Analytical Method P-1.

3. . Sulfur content by gravimetric precipitation of EaS0s in ac-cordance with ASTM E350-72.

The data f rom chemical analyses were averaged, and the results are reported in Table.5-1 along with the applicable standard deviation values.

5. 3. Tensile Test Results The. results of the postirradiation tensile tests are presented in Tabic 5-2.

Tests were perf orred on specimens at both room te=perature and 570F using the sa:e test procedures and' techniques used to test the unirradiated specimens (section 4.1) . In general, the ultimate yield strength of the material in-cre ased slightly with a corresponding slight decrease in ductility; both ef-fects werc_the result of neutron radiation damage. The type of behavior ob-rerTe.1.and the degree to which the material properties changed is within the , rante of changes to be expected for the radiation environment to which the epecinens were exposed. The r.-sults of the preirradiation tensile tests are presented in Appendix B. 5.'. Charpy V-Notch Impact Test Results The test results from the irradiated Charpy V-notch specimens of the reactor v .--c! beltline material and the corralation monitor material are presented ta r bles 5-3 and 5-4 and Figures 5-1 through 5-5. The test procedures and tecalq 2cs were t he same as those used to test the unirradiated specimens ( ,e r : : en 4. 2 ) . The data show that the caterial exhibited a sensitivity to Irrai:atien within the values predicted f rom its chemical composition and the

la m o to which it was exposed.

         -6.1. Introduction.

A significant ~ aspect of the surveillance prograca is to provide a correlation between the neutron fluence above 1 W V and the radiation-induced property changes noted in the surveillance specinen. Io permit such a correlation. activation detectors with re etion thresholds in t he energy range of interest were placsd in each survelIlance capsule. The propertles of interest for the detectors are given in Table 6-1. Because of a long half-life (30 years) and an ef fectIve energy range of cure than 0.5 NY. only ths neasurecients of IU Cs product ion f rem fission react ions in Np aand "t*) are directly applicable to analytical determinations of the l'ast neutron (E

  • 1 NV) fluence over Cycle 1. The other dosimeter reac-tfon. are usetut as corrobor.ating dat.: for shorter time intervals and/or high-er energy fluxes. Short-lived isotope activities are representative of reactor

7. DISCUSSION 0. CAPSUI.E HISULTS
7. 1. Preirradiation Property Data A review of the unirradiated properties of the reactor vessel core belt re-gi.m indicated no significant deviation from expected properties except in the case of the upper shelf properties of the weld metal. Based on the pre-dieted end-of-service peak neutron fluence value at the 1/4T vessel wall lo-cation and the copper content of this weld, it is predicted that the end-of-service Charpy i.pper shelf energy (USE) will be below 50 f t-Ib. This veld was selected for inclusion in the surveillance program in accordance with the criteria in effect at the time the program was designed for Oconee 2. The a; plicable selection criterion was based on the uctirradiated properties only.

7.2. Irradiated Propertv Data 7.2.1. Tensile Properties Tabic 7-1 cospares irradiated and unirradiated te.sile properties. At both r.*on terparature and %0F, the ultimate and yield strengths increased slight-ly a< a result of irradiation accompanied by a corresponding decrease in duc-tilits. The small change in tensile properties is insignificant relative to the analy..is of the reactor vessel materials at this period in service life. 7.2.2. _Inyct_Prmr t ies lhe Schavior of t he Char;<y V-not ch impact data is snore significant to the cal-culatIcn of the reactor systeia's operating limitations. Table 7-2 compares the eb+erved changes in- irradiated Charpy impact properties with the predicted eban .:6 as shown in Figures 7-1 through 7-5. . The shif t of the data for the weld metal at the 50 f r-lb transition te=pera-ture was larger than the shift that would be predicted according to Regula-tory Guide 1.99. A similar coc:parison of the shift of the correlation cate-rial shows good agreement, while the base metal is significantly smaller. These coeparisons indicate that the estinating curves in Regulatory Guide 1.99 7-1 Babcock s. Wilcox

                    -_                                                                         l

I for low-copper naterials and at low fluence levels are reasonably accurate for predicting the 50 f t-lb transition temperature shif ts. The estimating curves fer high-copper material at low fluence levels are not in ge'd agreement with the observed data because of the abnormally large shif t that develops in low upper shelf naterial as the Charpy curve upper shelf approaches the 50 f t-lb design limit. The increase in the 35-mil lateral expansion transition tecperature is com-pared with the shift in RT ""#" * * '" * "#""*# "' "I * # *" SDT naJe for the 50 ft-lb transition temperature shift. These data show a behav-1 ter similar to that observed from the comparison of the observed and predicted transition data. Again, the significant dif ference is the larger shif t exhib-ited by the weld metal, which is due primarily to the fact that the Charpy curve i.p;'er shelf dropped close to the limit curve. 1herefore, the observed

    -targe shift can be at t ributed to the method of mes auring the MLE shif t.

The d.sta f or. the decrease in Charpy CSE with irradiation showed a good compar-I

     'isan fur the base met al, having a - lov ennp9r content. The weld metal ' data co pare very well with the predict 2          lue in view of the lack of data for nich-topper-content weldments at low fluence values use ' to develop the esti-na: inn e.rves.

The shi#ts -hown are not in complete agreement with those predicted from Reg-ala t ory Gui.'e 1.99 at the fluence level of this capsule. This indicates that t!e est i ating curves base greater inaccuracies at the very low neutron fluence leve2s (_1 - 103d n/cm?). This inaccuracy is a result of the limited data at the Ie fluence values and of the fact that the cajority of the data used to

    .h i f w the curves in Regulatory Guide 1.99 are based on the shift at 30 ft-lb l     n ..arAred to the current acquirement of 50 ft-Ib.         For most materials the ihiir9 =casured at 50 f t-lb/35 MLE are expected so be higher than those mea-dured at 30 tt-lb. The significan:e of the shif ts at 50 f t-lb and/or 35 MLE is not well understood at present, especially for materials having USEs that approach the 50 f t-lb level and/or the 35 MLE level. Materials with this l

characteristic should be evaluated at transition energy levels lower than 50 [ ft-lb. The design curves for- predicting the shif t at 50 f t-Ib/35 MLE will probably be

 -nodified as data become available; until that ti=e, the design curves for pre-dieting the RT          s f a    given in Regulatory Guide 1.99 are considered NDT 7-2                        Babcock & Wilcox

6. DETERMINATION OF RCPB PRESSI;RE-TEMPERATt RE 1.1MiTS
         %e pre %<ure-temperature limits of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) of th en.* J hive been established in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appvndix G.

The ectbod-i and criteria employed to establish operating pres-sure and te perature limits are described in topical report BAW-10046.~ Re objectIse of these limits is to prevent nonductile failure during any normal operatinz conditlen, including anticipated operational occurrences and system hydrostatic tests. We loading conditions of interest include the following: t

1. Soreal operations, including heatup and coaldown.
2. Inservice leak and hydrostatic tests.
1. Ikaetor core operation.

Ihe m.nior cenponents of the RCPB have been analyzed in accordance with 10 CFR

        .0 , \ppendix i;. TM closure head region, the reactor vessel outlet nozzle, anit t ue be lt line . region have been identi fied as the only regions of the reac-t or ve*.e l , aa.1 consequen t ly of the RCPB, that regulate the pressure-tempera-ture limits.       Stace the clo.ure head region is significantly stressed at rel-atIvets 1.% t c:trera t ures (due to mechanical loads resulting from bolt preload).

this region largely coe.trols the pressure-temperature limits of the first sev- 1 eral serviec periods. The reactor vessel outlet nozzle also affects the pres- I iu re- t er,v ra t ure limit curves of the first several s;-vice periods. His is due to t he h! :S lxal st rc<ses at the inside corner of the nozzle, which can be two to three times the membrane stresses of the shell. Af ter the first several i vear- of neutron radiation exposure, the RT # "" # ""* NDT ' als will be high enough that the beltline region of the reactor vessel will l start to control the pressure-temperature limits of the RCPB. For the service period t or which the limit curves are established, the maximum allowable pres- ) sure as a funct ion of fluid temperature is obtained through a point-by-point comparison of the licits imposed by the closure head region, the outlet noz-ale, and the belt line region. The tsaximum allowable pressure is taken to be the lowest of the three calculated pressures. g,1 Babcock a. Wilcox

l 1 l Tho eighth full-power year was selected because it is estimated that the sec-ond surveillance capsule will be withdrawn at the end of the refuelina cycle, which corre'sponds to approximately eight full-power years. ne time di f fer-ance between the withdrawal of the first and second surveillance capsules pro-vides adequate tic:e for. re-establishing the operating pressure and teeperat ure limits for the period of operation between the second and third surveillance capsule withdrawals.. Tha limit curves for Oconee 2 are based on the predicted values of the ad-justed reterence temperatures of all the belt line regia naterials at the end of the eighth f ull-power year. De unirradiated inpact properties were deter-nined for the surveillance beltline region materials in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendixes G and H. For the other beltline region and RCP8 naterials, thz tmirradiated impact properties were estinated using the methods described in MW-100*.6P.* The unitradiated impact properties and residual element s of tho beltline region materials are listed in Table A-1. The adjusted reference temperatures are calculated by adding the predicted radiation-induced .*.RT NDT

     .ud the uni rradiated RTNDT-       e Predicted ARTg is ca!culated using        the re-
       .pec tive neutron fluence and copper and phosphorus contents. Ee design cur.e. of Regulatory Guide 1.99* were used to predict the radiation-induced DT values as a ftmeti n

The support ing information for Figure 8-1 is de-ribed in MW-10100. ' The neutron fluence values of Figure 8-1 are the pre-dict-d f luences, which have been demonstrated (sectica 6) to be conservative.

Figure 8-2 shcws the reactor vessel's pressure-te:nperature limit curves for normal heatup. This figure also shows the cere criticality limits as required by 10 CTR 50, Appendix C. Figures 8-3 amd 3-1. shcw the vessel's pressure-temperature limit curve for nort:ul coolds a and for heatup during inservice leak and hydrostatic tests, respectively. All pressure-temperature limit curves are applicible up to the ninth effective full-power year. Protection against nonduct ile failure is ensured by maintaining the coolant pressure be-low the upper limit:4 of the pressure-temperature limit curves. The accept-able pressure and temperature combinations for reactor vessel operation are below and to the right of the limit curve. The reactor is not permitted to c* critical unt il the pre sure-temperature combisations are to the right of the criticality linit curve. To establish the pressure-temperature limits for prot ect ion ac.aln se nondwtile f ailure of the ItCP3, t he limits presented in Figures M-2 through 8 *. ::ust be adjusted by the pressure dif ferential between t he poin t of % < .t em pressure measurerent and the pressure on the reactor ves-set controlling the li:si t curves. This is r:ecessary because the reactor ves-el is the mo s t limitine component of the RCP3. J 8-3 Babcock a Wilcox

9. ' SUMyaRY OF RESULTS L

The analvsis of the reactor vessel material contained in the first surveillance capsule -(OCll-C) removed f rom the Oconee 2 pressure vessel led to the following conclusions:

1. 1he 'capsulp received an average fast fluence'of 9.43 = 1017 n/cm (E ' > l '

SkV) . The predicted fast fluence for the reactor vessel 1/4T location at the end of the first fuel cycle is 3.54 = 10I7 (E > 1 MeV). 2.- The fast fluence of 2. 32 < 10 l' c/cm2 (E > 1 & V) increased the RTg of the pressure vessel core region shell caterials to a maximum of 132F at t he eighth EFPY. 3.

                    . Based on a ratio of 1.6 between the fas t flux at the surveillance capsule loc... lon to t ha t at the vessel vall and an 80% load factor, the projected
                    ' t'a s t f li,sence t ha t the Oconee 2 reactor pressure vessel will receive in 40 calendar j. cars' operation is 1.06 e 1013 n/cm2 (g 1 3ry),

E. The increase in RTNDT f r the base plate material was less than that pre-dicted by the current ly used design curves of J.RT versus fluence because 5DT of tuaccuracles in the prediction curves r esulting from lack of irradiation data for liu-copper. raterials at low fluences.

i. The increase in the RT2T f r the weld retal was greater than that predict-
                  -cd by the currently acted design curves of ART DI because f the inaccura-cies in the nethod of measuring the shif t in t ransition te=perature as the
                  . data curves approach the specified limit curves.
6. The current techniq ues used for predict ing the . chance in Charpy icpact i

upper shelf properties due to irradiation are conservative.

7. _ The analysis of the neut ron dosineters demonstrated that the analytical
                 . techniques used to predict the neutron flux and fluence were accurate.

8.

                 - The thermal' nonitors . indicated that the caps'ile design was satisfactory for nalntaining the specinens 'within the desired te=perature r..nge.
