BELLEFONTE NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 MAIN STEAM LINE ANALYSIS TPIPE INPUT ERROR NCR BLN CEB 8007 4

10 CFR 50.55(e) 2 SECOND INTERIM REPORT 4

Description of Deficiency s j The calculat ed effects of a steam hammer occurrence in the Bellefonte 4

Nuclear Plant main steam lines have been questioned because of an input error in the TPIPE computer program used in the analysis.

The input error oces. red when several forcing functions with different arrival times were applied at individual node names. This procedure is incorrect (though the application of multiple forcing functions at a single node name is permissible provided all have the same arrival

! times).

In order to facilitate the analysis of the main steam lines, the

! computer is programed to analyze only a portion of the total piping involved with each problem submittal. 'The problems affected by the subject input error are N4-1SMl-A, B, C, K, and L. These represent main steam line piping in valve room A, piping transversing into the Turbine Building, valve room B, and main steam line piping which penetrates primary containment, respectively.

! Interim Progress The affected problems listed above have all been re'un on TPIPE with the correct input data for TPIPE. Problems N4-1SM-B, N4-1SM-C, N4-1SM-K, and N4-1SM-L have been issued with the correct time history analysis included. Problem N4-1SM-A has not been issued because of other piping

! changes and additions which require additional analysis. It is currently scheduled for completion September 1, 1081.
