SUBJECT:
MEETING WITH MARK II LEAD PLANT APPLICANTS TO DISCUSS T-QUENCHER LOAD DEFINITION, JUNE 13, 1980 BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this meeting was to discuss the methodology proposed by the applicants for the Mark II lead plants to define the T-quencher load specification following safety / relief valve actuation.
Dr. H. Chau, chairman of the Mark II Owners Group, stated that the new methodology would be a generic method that was applicable for all the Mark II lead plants. However, individual plants could choose not to use this method.
An attendance list and a copy of the handouts are enclosed.
SUMMARY
l The current acceptance criteria for SRV loads specify that the loads spec-ification described in the Susquehanna Design Assessment Repert should be used for all Mark II lead plants using the T-quencher device. This report specifies that a constant multiplier of 1.5 should be applied for all SRV loads obtained from in-plant tests performed at a fureign BWR plant and used as the basis for T-quencher load specification. However, a multiplier of 1.1 for the first SRV actuation and 1.5 for subsequent actuationswas approved by the staff as a result of evaluating the confirmatory tests conducted by KWU at Karlstein, Germany. The applicants for the Mark II lead plants believe that these multipliers will still result in excessively conservative SRV loads. Therefore, they employed Krafwerk Union (KWU) of Germany to develop a new methodology for calculating the multiplier.

Mark II Lead Plants Dr. D. Goebel of KWU presented the new methodology for determining the multipliers both for air bubble oscillating frequencies and pressure amplitude. The frequency multipliers were calculated by KWU analytical models to account for the effects of pool surface area per quencher, sub-mergence depth of the quencher device and the wetwell pressure.
Idealized forcing functions were also generated. Results of these calculated forcing functions with the frequency range, which are determined by the multipliers, are then compared with the " representative" pressure traces from the Karlstein tests. These tests are representative of a full scale T-quencher.
Dr.
Goebel indicated that the comparison is very favorable. Application of the methodology for the Shoreham plant will further demonstrate the adequacy of this method.
With respect to the pressure amplitude multiplier, a correlation was developed on the basis of Karlstein T-quencher tests. Detailed justification for the correlation was not presented in the meeting. Reports describing the basis for this methodology will be submitted for the staff review by July 1980.
The staff indicated that the methodology as outlined by Dr. Goebel appeared to be a viable approach.
If this new method is accepted, we will incorporate it in the Mark II T-quencher NUREG report to be published by October 1980.
