Dear Mr. Stolz:
This letter is in reference to Mr. R. W. Reid's letter dated February 24, 1981 (Log No. 663) to all Babcock & Wilcox Licensees concerning small break LOCA model to predict small bt.ak behavior. The following is Toledo Edison's response to this letter as it relates to Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Unit 1.
The B&W prediction of the L3-1 test compared very favorably with the other vendor predictions. All of the predictions showed the clearing of liquid from the pump loop seal. However, the test did not produce this result due to a bypass flow path which existed between the vessel upper head and the downcomer annulus, as well as another bypass between the hot and cold leg pipes due to leakage through the reflood assist valves.
EG6G calculations indicate that this leakage path in LOFT is approximately 3 percent of the core flow, or comparable to prototype valves. However, the actual leakage path ce m.
be measured directly but only indirectly inferred by assuming a valca -.2ch leads to the prediction agreement with the test. Therefore, the leakage flow from L3-1 must be further evaluated before additional analytical work could be justified. In addition, on page 40 of EGG-CAAP-5255 (LOFT L3-1 Preliminary Comparison Report) it is stated that B&W was the anly vendor who accurately calculated the behavior of the secondary side cf the steam generator. For these reasons, we are of the opinion that only a marginal benefit at best could be realized from further evaluation of the L3-1 test.
Regarding the S-07-10D test, the situation is a little different. None of the vendor predictions characterized the test very wel.1.
However, we feel this is due in large ceasure to insufficient information to model
[
the steam side of the steam generator, as well as insufficient dara on
/I N the valve and assceiated piping. There is also insufficient infomation 3
to adequately model the steam separator. Based on these reasons, we are of the opinion that our current results are not unreasonable considering 0
the conservative features of the model B&W used to predict the experiment.

[
t Docket No. 50-346 License No. NPF-3 Serial No. 709 May 19, 1981 Toledo Edison is reviewing the earlier pre-test predictions in light of the identified test uncertanties and model conservatisms to confirm the validity of the existing evaluation model.
The analysis of the L3-6 test, which was completed and submitted to Dr.
Sheron on March 23 required an extensive manpower commitment. Due to this and the continuing effort to respond to the requirements of NUREG-0737 and others, Toledo Edison will provide any pertinent information resulting from the above mentioned review by June 15, 1981.
Very truly yours, O
