1.0 INTRODUCTION

Unit 1 of Consumers Power Company's Midland Plant experienced failure of three reactor vessel anchor studs several weeks af ter being tensioned to a nominal value of 92 ksi in their tension area. Figure 1.1 shows the location of the three failures. The anchor studs were purchased as ASTM A354 Grade BD, 2.5 inches in diameter and 7 feet, 4 inches long. There are a total of 96 anchor studs per reactor vessel in two concentric rings on each side of the reactor vessel skirt.

Investigation of the failed reactor vessel anchor studs was performed by Teledyne Engineering Services (TES) (References 1 through 5).

l According to the investigation, the failure was due to stress corrosion crack propagation to a point where brittle fracture took place.

Modifying the reactor vessel supporting system to include the addition of the upper lateral supports (ULS) above the reactor vessel nozzles, t

along with stressing the anchor studs to a reduced preload level, will provide the necessary support for the reactor vessel (RV). Two reports J

(See References 6 and 7) were transmitted to the NRC in July and December 1980. The first report covered the initial design criteria of i

~

the new support system including the allowable stresses. The second report covered preliminary design loads and methods of analysis. Other interim reports and responses to NRC questions have been provided and are listed in the transmittal letter for this report.

mil 181-0953a141

-. l

2 It has been determined for engineering reasons, that the gap size

.between the RV and the ULS should be increased from the nominal 1/32 inches previously reported to the NRC, to a gap size large enough to avoid contact between the RV and ULS during a seismic event and 4

continue to provide the necessary lateral support for the RV from the design basis loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA).

i This Report Number 3 provides the required details for both the design and the analytical methods used, and thus satisfies the commitments l

made by the Company to the NRC. This report supersedes both previous reports (See References 6 and 7) by presenting the previous and new material in a single document. Where differences occur in either the

]

design or the analytical methods between this report and the two i

i previous reports, this report takes precedence and reflects the product 4

j of studies which have beer performed to both enhance the modified RV

]

support system and to assure the Company that the final design i

j adequately meets all safety requirements.

2.0 DESCRIPTION

OF THE SUPPORT SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS The brackets that were originally provided to support the cavity annular shield plugs at the top of the RV have been reinforced to also serve as the ULS, to partially resist the RV overturning moment from l

the c'esign basis loss of coolant accident (LOCA), thus reducing the stresses in the anchor studs. As can be noted from Figure 2.1, the brackets are located opposite the RV between the head flange and the nozzle belt. There are 12 brackets in each reactor cavity, and they are approximately equally spaced as shown in Figure 2.2.

All but four of the brackets are radially oriented with respect to the RV and the i

remaining four are oriented in the East-West direction. The brackets are welded to embedments in the wall as shown in Figures 2.3 and 2.4, for the radially and the East-West oriented brackets, respectively.

The brackets are made of a material originally purchased as ASTM A516 steel however some of the A516 material 1 1/2 and 1 1/4 inch thick plates were not normalized. The impact properties of the material

<(

indicate that it is acceptable for use as a material purchased as impact specified 4 TM A516. The embeded plates are made of ASTM A36 steel. Details of the embedments are shown in Figure 2.5.

The ULS will have stainless steel shim packs permanently mounted at their ends to provide the required gap between the brackets and the RV as shown in j

Figures 2.3 and 2.4.

The contact surface area of the ULS shim pack is 5 x 12 inches and has been machined to a surface roughness of 250.

Opposite the ULS shim pack on the RV surface, a corresponding contact surface has been machined flat for an area of 8 x 13.5 inches with a

+

surface roughness of 250 or better. With the RV at a temperature of mi1181-0953a141 2

5 about 70*F, a gap of 15/32 (0.469) inches will be set between the ULS and the RV.

During normal operation at 100% power, this gap will be 0.121 inches. This gap has been determined to insure that the RV will only contact the ULS in the event of the design basis LOCA at 100%

. power operation. Further details as to how the gap size was determined are presented in the subsequent sections.

The modification to the RV skirt flange support consists of reducing anchor studs prestressing load from the intended 75 kai to only 5 ksi as discussed in Sectior 8.

The 5 ksi prestress value reduces to 1.5 l

ksi during the normal operating conditions as a result of increased anchor stud temperatures and other losses. The anchor studs alone will

<[E resist overturning moments and uplift forces from all loads on the l

l reactor except those from the design basis LOCA. The ULS will l

partially function to resist the design basis LOCA overturning moments I

on the studs by limiting the RV displacement.

Shear forces and i

torsional moments at the RV skirt flange support are transferred to the concrete pedestal by the shear pins between the RV skirt flange and the l

sole plate and the shear lugs welded to the bottom surface of the sole plate. Details of the RV skirt flange support are shown in Figures 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8.

I 22 4.0 GENERATION CF PRELIMINARY SUPPORT LOADS The seismic analyses of the NSSS needed to generate the support loads have been finalized at this time and they are described in Section 11.0.

Preliminary analyses of the RV with the modified support system.for the design basis LOCA has been performed to allow for the design of the upper lateral supports to proceed. The following subsections describe the process by which the preliminary LOCA loads were developed.

4.1 PRELIMINARY LOCA LOADS To expedite the design of the modified reactor support system, a simplified nonlinear computer model of the RV shell, RV internals, and the concrete internal walls structure has been used to predict the

<((

design basis LOCA loadings as a function of variable gap size between a

the ULS and the RV.

4.1.1 Design Basis Breaks Design basis LOCA breaks are assumed to occur at 100 percent power operating conditions. Two design basis breaks ar-considered:

4 1) 0.39A* guillotine at the RV outlet nozzle 2) 0.24A* guillotine at the RV inlet nozzle

  • Note: A is equivalent to the internal cross-sectional area of the pipe being considered.

4.1.2 Analytical Model The analytical model used to determine the preliminary RV support system design LOCA loads is a simplified version of the model described in Section 11.0.

The model consists of two springs and a single degree of freedom. One spring represents the combined spring rate of the RV anchor support, the RV support skirt and the hot leg and cold leg piping. The second spring represents the combined effects of the ULS, localized wall spring rates, and radial flexibility

<((

of the RV shell. The single degree of freedom (SDOF) has a mass representative of the RV shell and RV internals. The mass / spring rates which represent the RV are developed such that the SDOF oscillator frequency closely matches that of the first mode of the RV shell and RV internals. Damping for the SDOF is 7 percent of the critical damping. Forcing functions, representing LOCA presures versus time, acting on the SDOF consist of combined time phased phenomena of both asymmetric cavity pressure across the RV shell, and to pressure differentials inside the RV.

These forces are described in more detail in Section 11.0.

4.1.3 Design Basis LOCA Loads and Displacements I

The model described in 4.1.2 is subjected to loadings through gaps ranging between 0.0 inches and 0.3 inches. The resulting force in the ULS and the moment on the RV base anchor are depicted in Figures 4.1 and 4.2 as a function of gap si,Ne.

mi1181-0953a141

24 Also determined was the deflection in the most critical ULS

<[(

bracket. The critical ULS bracket is defined as the bracket subjecced to the largest axial compressive deformations which therefore have the potential to exceed the ductility limits imposed by the criteria set forth in Section 3.3.6.

Figure 4.3 illustrates the critical ULS bracket, and ensuing deflections

<([

for both hot and cold leg LOCA's. A vertical force at the RV base of 4,697 kips is considered in the design.

4.2 DEAD LOADS AND THERMAL LOADS The modification of the RV support system does not affect the dead loads and thermal loads on the RV base support. There are no loadings on the ULS due to deadweight or thermal expansion of the NSSS. The previously calculated dead loads and thermal loads on the RV skirt base are given below.

Deadweight

= - 2595 kips Thermal (8% power)

= + 420 kips Thermal (15% power) = + 356 kips Thermal (100% power) = + 330 kips

  • Note: A negative sign indicates a downward applied load, and positive sign indicates an uplift load.

4.3 PRELIMINARY VERSUS FINAL LOADS The preliminary loadings given in the report have been determined to allow design of the modified RV support system to proceed in an~ orderly manner. Models and forcing functions are similar and/or identical to l

those used to produce final loadings.

l mil 181-0953a141

'I 25 Deadweight and thermal loads are being revised to reflect refinements in the internal walls structure model. These results are not expected to

<({'

vary significantly from those previously calculated. Seismic results as presented in Section 11.0 are final. LOCA displacements and loads are considered adequate for design use. The parameters reflected in the simplified LOCA model are those which are most significant in determining RV support loads. Although more detailed LOCA analyses are currently being performed (See Section 11.0) which will verify the preliminary loadinga, the major reason for the more detailed analyses is to determine the effects of LOCA on the reactor internals.

From Figures 11.11 through 11.13, it can be noted that the

maximum allowed displacement of the bracket is 0.2548 inches (based on a ductility ratio of 10). The preliminary calculations indicate a maximum displacement of 0.045 inches which is considerably less than the maximam allowed displacement.

5.2 ANCHOR STUDS 5.2.1 Analytical Model to Determine Stress Distribution j

The reactor pressure vessel skirt and skirt flange have been modeled with flat rectangular shell elements (5 degrees of freedom per node) using the finite element computer program BSAP* (CE-800). The finite element model is shown in Figure 5.2.

The anchor studs and tue concrete pedestal are modeled i

using linear springs which can be axially loaded only. The stiffness of these springs in tensica is equal to the stiffness of the studs, and their stiffness in compression is equal to the stiffness of the pedestal. The loads are applied at the center of the circular top edge of the skirt which is connected to the nodes on the top edge of the skirt by a spoked arrangement of rigid links, thus representing the boundary edge effect of che RV.

The solution for the stud stresses is obtained through iteration by first assuming the position of the neutral axis and then checking the assumption and adjusting it as required until the mi1181-0953a141

32 location of the neutral axis is determined. Due to the non-linear nature of this analysis, this procedure was followed to calculate the stresses in the bolts due to loads from the design basis LOCA and East-West, North-South and vertical SSE earthquake, respectively.

  • Note: The description of BSAP along with its validation is provided in Appendix 3C of the FSAR.

5.2.2 Maximum Design Vs Allowable Stresses 5.2.2.1 For Unit 1 The maximum design stresses due to dead loads, thermal loads, SSE loads, and design basis LOCA loads are given in the table below along with their corresponding allowable stresses. These stresses were calculated by combining the sttesses from SSE and LOCA loads by the square-root-of-the-sum-of-the-squares method (SRSS).

The governing LOCA load case was a break in the cold leg of the NSSS closest to the two broken studs in the outer radius of Unit 1.

The Level D, or Faulted, allowable stresses for the reactor vessel anchor studs will be 0.7 times the minimum measured test load

<((

resulting from the 1980 detensioning effort (ie, 0.7 x 75 ksi = 52.5 ksi) but if higher allowables are desired, these allowables for individual studs will be based on 0.7 times a "new" test load where sufficient controls have been applied to assure the accuracy of mil 181-0953a141

I 37 6.0 HEAT TRANSFER AND THERMAL ANALYSIS 6.1 IUTRODUCTION_

An investigation into the relative motion of the RV and the ULS as a result of variation in the NSSS system temperatures and pressures during normal plant operating and upset conditions has been conducted. The l

i investigation included heat transfer analysis to determine the temperature distribution in the ULS, of the concrete behind the ULS and l

the RV shell. In order to benchmark the investigation, the same techniques were usad to predict the conditions of hot-functional testing l

(HFT). See Section 10.0 for further discussion of the HFT testing

. program. The calculated values will be correlated against measured values during HFT. The results obtained from the study, confirmed or l

l modified during HFT, will be used to finalize the gap required between the upper lateral supports and the RV.

<[f I

l.

6.2 TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE COND M ONS OF REACTOR PRESSURE VESSEL NEAR l(

UPPER LATERAL SUPPORTS 1

The part of the RV shell opposite the ULS is exposed to the inlet, or cold leg, fluid temperature. The predominant temperature values are 532*F (0% power hot standby), 550*F (8% power), 575*F (15% power), and

<(s[

554*F (100% power). This range covers all anticipated normal operating conditions other than heatup and cooldown which will have temperatures

~

i less than 532*F and two upset transients:

1) reactor trip (loss of i

l feedwater), and 2) accidental rod withdrawal. These transients are similar with respect to inlet fluid temperature in that there is a change in temperature from 554*F to 590*F in approximately 30 seconds mi1181-0953a141 l

l 38 and then a return to 550*F in 1 to 3 minutes.

(Note: The 590*F temperature is held for a very short time; i.e., approximately 10 seconds.)

The reactor pressure is nominally at 2,250 psi. Again there are short time fluctuations where pressure varies over a range of 2,100 psi to 2,600 psi. Of course, during the heatup and cooldown operations the pressure falls below 2,100 psi.

Tne outlet nozzles, or hot legs, below the restraints carry the coolant fluid which is at a higher temperature. An analysis has indicated that the outside surface of the RV shell is 567'F at a distance of 41.5 inches from the nozzle centerline when the fluid temperatares for the l <({

hot and cold leg are 607'F and 554*F, respectively. The outside surface l

of the RV shell at 34.5 inches from the hot leg nozzle centerline is I

575*F.

The bottom of the machined contact surface opposite the ULS on the RV is 48.5 inches from the outlet centerline. Therefore, there will be very little if any effect of the hot leg fluid at the ULS location.

I' As stated previously, the basic temperature conditions of the reactor inlet are below 575*F except for certain trip conditions. To eliminate considerations of these short-time temperature excursions, _alculations were made with the aid of formulae developed in Reference 10.

If the RV shell extern ' temperature is a uniform 550*F, and the inner surface temperature is increased to 590*F, the time required to raise outside surface temperature to 575 F is 1.53 hours6.134259e-4 days <br />0.0147 hours <br />8.763227e-5 weeks <br />2.01665e-5 months <br />. Since the entire transient is less than 5 minutes, it can be concluded that reactor inlet i

temperatures higher than 575*F need not be considered.

6.3 UPPER LATERAL SUPPORTS VESSEL INTERFACE The parameters involved in modeling the RV interface with the ULS are l

l very difficult to precisely predict. Considerations are width of gap (A ), conditions of surfaces, and possible air flow conditions. Because G

of the nature of the insulation and proximity of the restraint to the vessel, convective effects should be small. Conduction through air and radiant effects are functions of the gap and surface conditions. The conditions affecting radiant effects will change over the plant life due to oxidation of the surfaces. To bound the potential effect of these parameters, three cases were analyzed. Two gapped cases 0.1 inch and 0.03125 inch, allowing conduction through the air as the only heat transfer mode, were analyzed. A third case assumed continuous metal between the vessel and restraints. The vessel fluid and cavity air conditions were not varied.

In all cases, convective effects were included on the ULS.

l l

The most severe temperature distribution in the vessel wall was identified and a finite element structural analysis was performed to determine stresses and thermal deflections associated with this

(

condition. An isothermal case was also run as a base comparison case.

1 The fluid temperature was 570*F and the air temperature was 132*F.

The hand-calculated radial thermal deflection is 0.3588 inch *. The computer-calculated deflection is 0.3589 inch *. The calculated radial deflection opposite the restraints due to the most severe thermal gradient is 0.350 inches. Therefore, with respect to the RV, the restraint to the RV interface has the potential for a small error from thermal growth considerations.

44 6.6 CREEP, THERMAL RACHETING, AND ELASTIC SHAKE DOWN The long-term positional stability of parts is a consideration in the design of a gapped structure. This section is concerned specifically with the stability of the reactor vessel. The vessel was subjected to an ASME code heat treat at the conclusion of all welding. The vessel is in a vertical position and will not be again subjected to temperatures i

near the heat treatment range (i.e., T operation is 575'F while the temperature at heat treat was 1,100 to 1,150*F).

Therefore, additional stress relaxation would not be expected to occur, unless creep effect I

l occurs.

I ASME Section III stress criteria recluires that the highest temperature 1

l versus stress allowable be within the bounds of creep criteria stated in ASME Section I.

The highest reported temperature in the 1968 ASME Section III for SA-508 CL 2 is 700 F.

The reported S,value is 26,700

(

j psi which is constant for the full temperature range. This is one-third the minimum ultimate strength of 80 ksi. The material SA-508 CL 2 is not in ASME Section I, but SA-302 GR B is listed and has strength and chemistry characteristics very similar to SA-508 CL 2.

ASME Section I I

stress allowables do not diverge from 1/4o,until a temperature of

)

i 800'F.

Therefore, it can be concluded that the vessel is not operating I

in the creep range.

l Thermal racneting is another consideration in the design of a gapped structure. The relevant criteria is given in ASME Section III. Under this thermal condition, cyclic radial gradient thermal stresses occur in an essentially constant pressure stress field, mi1181-0953a141

45 maximum general membrane stress yield strength

  • Maximum general membrane stress = 2500(84)= 17.5 ksi 12 x = 17.5 ksi/26 = 0.673 y, _ maximum allowable range of thermal stress yield strength
  • y' min = 4(1 - X) = 1.308 o

= 1.308(26) = 34 ksi H range

  • Note: For additional precautions against thermal rachet, the following endurance limit should be used:

2xS at 108 cycles for SA-508 CL 2; 2(13) = 26 ksi.

Under conditions where the pressure in the system is relatively constant, and the fluid temperature is between 532 and 590 F.

The maximum up-ramp is either 532 - 575*F = 43*F or 554 - 590*F = 36*F.

Thus, maximum up-ramp is 43*F.

As discussed eariier, the outside diameter of vessel will not reach 590*F, therefore, the maximum down-ramp is 575 - 532*F = 43*F.

Assuming a step change in fluid temperature and an infinite film coefficient, the radial gradient thermal stress cannot exceed:

a = E a AT _ 27x10 (7.5x10*8)(43) = 12.4 ksi 3

0.7 0.7 or a

= 2(12.4) = 24.8 ksi < 34 ksi TH range Therefore, thermal racheting is not possible.

A third criteria, stated in ASME Section III, which allows primary plus secondary stress range of 3S, should be investigated. This limit ensures elastic shakedown in a few cycles, but it does not prohibit a small incremental growth. The primary and secondary stress range in mi1181-0953a141

n 46 l

this area is 48.9 ksi, which is composed of a plus stress intensity of 18.1 ksi and a minus stress intensity of -30.8 ksi. Because both of these stresses are below the yield strength of the material (42 ksi),

l there would be a negligible, if any, strain cycling.

l The maximum additional stress induced in the vessel during the extreme condition of contact with the bumper was 9.36 ksi. The stress allowance for 3S,, and the material yield strength are not exceeded under this condition. Therefore long-term distortion of the vessel is considered l

unlikely.

The flat areas are within 1/500 of vertical and 1/500 of perpendicular to the RV radius and have a surface finish of 250.

8.1 DETENSIONING PROCEDUPE In detensioning Unit 1, a scatter in the lift-off load values war observed (See Appendix C).

A more rigorous and accurate detensioning procedure will be used for Unit 2 in measuring the lift-off load values.

This will aid in explaining the scatter of lif t-off values observed in l

Unit 1.

The criteria and procedure to be used to detension the Unit 2 studs is described in detail in Appendix A.

8.2 CREEP RECOVERY l

The reactor pressure vessel anchor studs in Unit 2 were tensioned to 92 i

l ksi during the summer of 1979. When they are detensioned more than two years later, part of the compressive strain of the concrete will be recovered instantaneously. This will be followed by a time-dependent recovery known as creep-recovery or delayed elasticity. This creep recovery reaches a limiting value leaving an irrecoverable strain or l(

permanent set.

l This creep recovery, if not accounted for, will increase the tension in I

the studs if they retensioned shortly after being detensioned. For this reason, retensioning will not commence immediately after detensioning.

I Furthermore, depending on the time duration between detensioning and retensioning, the magnitude of the tension load will-be adjusted to l

account for the increase due to creep recovery of the concrete.

In addition, after tensioning and after sufficient time has elapsed, such that_almost full creep recovery has taken place, the tension in the

51 10.0 GAP AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS AND GAP SETTING In order to benchmark the assumptions made in the heat transfer and thermal analyses discussed in Section 6 of this report, displacement and temperature measurements will be taken while the NSSS undergoes hot functional testing.

10.1 MEASUREMENTS DURING HOT FUNCTIONAL TESTING The following additional measurements will be taken during hot functional testing:

The change in gap between the reactor vessel upper lateral supports a.

and the RV.

b.

The change in the RV surface temperature, the temperature of the upper lateral support and the concrete wall.

10.2 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE The criteria and procedure is described in detail in Appendix B.

10.3 CORRELATION BETWEEN MEASURED AND CALCULATED VALUES Comparison Letween the measured and calculated temperatures and displacements will be made.

If differences occur, the calculation will be modified to account for this difference.

In this case, the calculated temperatures and displacements for operating conditions will be as accurate as possible.

10.4 SETTING THE GAP In order to prevent contact between the RV and the ULS during normal operational conditions and in the case of'a-seismic event, the gap was calculated as follows: The SSE displacements of the RV and ULS in both

<f horizontal directions are individually summed by vector addition. The maximum seismic gap computed is 0.076 inch (0.043 inch wall displacement and 0.033 inch vessel displacement). The seismic gap was calculated

(

using the conservative approach of adding (using the absolute sum) the l

displacements of the wall and the vessel thus assuming that they will move 'out of phase. The gap required to compensate for the thermal growth of the vessel and the wall as well as the effect of the pressure in the vessel and the closure effect is as shown for 0%, 15% and 100%

54 11.0 ANALYSIS TO DETERMINE FINAL SUPPORT LOADS I 11.1 GENERATION OF SUPPORT LOADS 11.1.1 Technical Basis The methodology used to generate the design loads for the modified Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) supports will l utilize the same analytical techniques and computer codes as B&W l Topical report, BAW-10131, Reactor Or.olant System Structural L Loading Analysis (Reference 11) and the B&W's Owners Group Report entitled, Effects of Asymmetric LOCA Loadings, BAW 1621 l l B&W 177-FA, (Reference 8) which has been submitted to the NRC for review in July 1980. l Modifications will be made to the existing mathematical models of the NSSS and its supports to incorporate the upper lateral support spring rates, reactor vessel anchor stud spring rates, internal walls structure, and boundary conditions at the reactor ( coolant pumps and steam generators specific to the Midland l l Plant. The ceismic forcing functions are Midland specific, l l however the LOCA forcing functions used to determine the support loadings are based on break areas equal to or larger than those specifically applicable to Midland. The analyses will incorporate state-of-the-art techniques (described herein) which insure that all components supporting, and attached to, the reactor vessel will receive a full review l for structural integrity under the modified support design. mi1181-0953a141 l

55 1 11.1.2 Mathematical Model A single mathematical model will serve as the basis for both' seismic and LOCA analyses. Minor modifications allow the model to be used for linear seismic or linear / nonlinear.LOCA analyses. For seismic analysis, the ULS will be gapped such that the RV and the ULS will not contact. The moment on the RV skirt is such that pretension of the anchor studs is not exceeded. Thus, linear elastic analysis for the support system will be applicable. Stresses are checked against allowables to insure the validity of this assumption. The STALUM computer code is used to generate results. For LOCA analyses, the model will be modified to reflect the gap between the RV and the ULS, the inelastic properties of the ULS and the bilinear spring rate which reflects loads exceeding prestress on the anchor studs. The STALUM code, with linear elastic properties, will be used to establish " benchmark" LOCA results. The ANSYS code will be used to achieve results reflecting nonlinear and inelastic conditions of the support system. The results will be compared with linear STALUM analyses to insure reasonability. 11.1.2.1 NSSS Model Because of the complexity of the RV loading conditions and the number of attachments to the vessel, a detailed isolated model of this component will be mi1181-0953a141

1 1 a 1 1 56 constructed. This model will be a complete representation.of the reactor vessel and its appendages (eg, control rod drive mechanisms, service support structure, and reactor internals). It will also include both the hot legs extending to the steam generators and the four cold legs extending to the coolant pumps. Boundary conditions will be imposed at the ends of the pipes where they connect to the components to simulate the remainder of the NSSS. The l l isolated model is shown in Figures 11.1 through 11.7. l The isolated portion of the NSSS will be modeled utilizing finite beam-element and lumped mass representations of each component. Finite element methods are used where necessary to define the structural characteristics of components such as the fuel and plenum assemblies. Once determined kv finite element techniques, the structural characteristics of components will be used to generate the equivalent finite-beam element and lumped mass representations. i l The criteria for developing the equivalent structural representation is that component stiffness and frequency must be retained, i l The various components that make up the total RV and its internals are identified in Figure 11.8. By comparing Figure 11.8 with the lumped-mass model shown mil 181-0953a141

57 in Figure 11.1, the correlation between the components and the model elements representing them can be seen. In addition to the structural representation of the components, the NSSS mathematical model incorporates the effects of fluid coupling between components into the overall structural response of the system. This is accomplished by developing a mass matrix using the height of concentric cylinders, the distance between i the cylinders, and various parameters describing the fluid between the cylinders. The mass matrix which is generated is combined with the diagonal mass matrix terms defining component mass distribution to generate a full system mass matrix. 11.1.2.2 Internal Walls Structure The internal walls structural model properties included are the axial area, shear area, moments of inertia, modulus of elasticity, and Poisson's ratio for different elevations in the wall. Lumped masses and mass moments of inertia at different elevations define the mass distribution and mass resistance of the wall structure. The internal wall structure is modeled in the seismic analysis to the center of the concrete basemat. The boundary conditions at that point are fixed such that no relative rotation or translation is allowed. This internal wall structure mi1181-0953a141

i 58 model is shown in Figure 11.4. For LOCA, the internal . walls are modeled to include separately the primary and secondary shield walls along with springs at their base to represent the soil flexibility, this model is shown in Figure 11.7. 11.1.2.3 NSSS Supports For the isolated RV model, the NSSS supports are described as the boundary conditions imposed on the l cold leg piping at the pury; and the hot leg piping at the steam generators, the reactor vessel skirt support, and the upper lateral supports near the RV flange. The boundary conditions imposed on the reactor coolant i piping at the pumps and steam generators consist of t stiffness matrices that represent the characteristics of the structures to which the pipes are attached. They are obtained from a full system model by disconnecting the pipes at the component nozzles and computing a stiffness matrix of the remaining component with its supporting structures and other attached piping. l The RV skirt support is modeled in the seismic analysis as a boundary condition at the base of the RV skirt support in the form of a set of springs. The boundary conditions reflect the flexibility of the mi1181-0953a141

59 j~ anchor: studs,, Jealized concrete flexibility, and overall flexibility of the RV pedestal from the RV skirt support to the center of the basemat. In the seismic analysis, these stiffnesses are linear since f the anchor stud prestress is not exceeded. J The LOCA enalysis reflects the nonlinearity of the RV base support during " liftoff" in a series of 1 equivalent nonlinear springs connecting the base of the RV skirt to the concrete pedestal. 1 The ULS are gapped such that they are not active i during a seismic event. During a LOCA, the gap between the ULS and RV would close such that the ULS 4 l becomes an active support. ULS structural properties i are incorporated into equivalent nonlinear springs which reflect the appropriate gap along with the i inelastic properties of the support. Localized i concrete and RV flexibility is included in series with j the ULS springs. The ULS equivalent beams are shown in Figure 11.7 as they connect the RV with the primary a shield wall. i 11.1.2.4 Stiffness of Upper Lateral Supports Lateral translation resistance versus displacement curves for the upper lateral restraints in three directions are developed. No movement of the wall is considered in the development of these curves, hence mi1181-0953a141

60 the stiffness of the brackets are added in series to the local wall stiffness. The three directions considered are the hot leg direction (North-South), the core flood nozzle direction (East-West) and the cold leg direction that lie midway between the North-South and East-West axis. The resistance curves are developed for a gap in the range of 0.090 to 0.125 inches and represent the stiffness of four ULS, and are given in Figures 11.11 through 11.13. The origin in the curves represents the first contact between the RV and the ULS. For the curves representing the stiffness in the direction of the cold leg, the stiffness of the first bracket to come in contact with the RV is neglected (the deflection, however, was considered). The neglected stiffness is comparatively small since the brackets are relatively flexible in bending about their minor axis. The local stiffness of the primary shield wall, which was determined by the finite element method of analysis is tabulated below: Break / Direction Spring Rate cold leg 779 x 10 lb/in hot leg (North-South) 215 x 10 lb/in core flood nozzle (East-West) 723 x 10 lb/in See Appendix E for further discussion on the method- <t ology used to compute the spring rates. mil 181-0953a141

61 11.1.2.5 Stiffness Of The Support At The Base Of The Reactor Pressure Vessel i The moment versus rotation curve for the reactor i pressure vessel base, (rotational spring constants K8 t l and K8 ), is shown in Figure 11.14. The curve was l I developed by a finite element analysis that assumed the nominal prestressing load of 20 kips per stud (corresponding to a 5 kai prestress). A dead weight I of 27.9 kips per stud has also been factored into the analysis. The curve is bilinear and the flatter portion represents the stiffness after the studs have lif ted off. For Unit 1, two slopes are given for the flat portion of the curve representing the upper and lower bound stiffness. The actual slope of the curve depends on the orientation of the moment with respect to the broken studs, and is between these two bounds. For Unit 2, where no studs are broken, the upper bound curve is.used. The stiffness in the other four directions are l tabulated below: Direction Spring Rate 10 torsional (K ) 1197 x 10 in-lb/ rad 6 lateral (K or K ) 578 x 10 in-lb/ rad g 6 vertical (K, before lift off) 22') x 10 lb/in 6 vertical (K, after lift off) 171 x 10 lb/in y I mil 181-0953a141 i l

62 In deriving the above stiffnesses, a finite element analysis was also used. The studs have no contribution to the lateral stiffness K or K and the g z torsional stiffness K The lateral forces and torsional moments are transmitted via the shear pins between the RV skirt flange and the sole plate, and from the sole plate through the shear lugs welded on the bottom surface of the sole plate to the concrete pedestal support. 11.1.3 Load Cases Analyzed The isolated model will be subjected to four load cases in the process of determining the design loads on the supports. Two sets of seismic analyses will be performed; one for the OBE and the other for SSE. Two LOCA cases will be considered in detail; a guillotine break at the hot leg outlet of the RV and a guillotine break at the cold leg inlet to the RV. Other LOCA load cases will be assessed if they are shown to produce contact between the RV and the ULS. The support system is designed such that the ULS will receive no deadweight or thermal loads from the RV. Deadweight and thermal load on the RV base are analyzed using a l( larger loop model of the NSSS and supports. These results are currently being modified in a program unrelated to the RV support redesign. Preliminary results are given in Section 4.0. mi1181-0953a141 1

63 11.1.4 Method Of Analysis 11.1.4.1 Seismic Forcing Functions The seismic forcing functions that will be applied to the mathematical model consist of response spectra curves for SSE at damping values from 1% to 5%. Response spectra is supplied for earthquakes in five directions, North-South, East-West, vertical, rotation about North-South and rotation about East-West. The rotation is applied as occurring about the geometric center of the RV at the elevation of the bcsemat. 11.1.4.2 LOCA Forcing Functions LOCA forcing functions are composed of three sets of time histories which are applied simultaneously to individual degrees of freedom. The forcing functions are the result of blowdown into the cavity between the t RV and the primary shield wall, and pressure wave propagation inside the RV due to the break in the reactor coolant pressure boundary. Core Bounce The vertical respor.se of the reactor internals and Fuel Assemblies (FA) result in a time varying force composed of the structural response to differential pressures. Core bounce is the terminology given to this response phenomena. The nonlinear structural mi1181-0953a141

-64 i i response reflecting holddown springs and vertical gaps is calculated in a decoupled analysis. The FA core and reactor internals are simulated with a planar model consisting of beam elements, nonlinear axial springs, and lumped masses. The ANSYS code is used to calculate the vertical reactions of the core, which are then used as applied force time histories on the reactor vessel in the system dynamic analysis. The core bounce LOCA forcing functions are the result of the worst case double end guillotine pipe breaks at the RV nozzle. Thermal Hydraulics and Dynamic Response The pressure waves through the RV produce several reactions that are not considered in the core bounce forcing functions and which can be applied directly to a dynamic system. For the reactor vessel, the horizontal pressure gradient results in horizontal forces on the RV, core support cylinder, thermal shield, and the plenum cylinder. The vertical gradient results in vertical forces on the RV. The integration of the pressure-time history defines the time history forces which are applied to discrete mass joints of the mathematical coJel. mi1181-0953a141

1 65 l The thermal hydraulic loadings applied directly to the linear dynamic model are the result of a hot leg pipe rupture and a cold leg rupture. Asymmetric Cavity Pressures Pipe ruptures which occur in the cavity between the RV and the wall result in differential pressures across the RV in a time varyi.ng manner. The differential pressures, when integrated across the area of the RV, produce time varying forces which are applied to discrete mass joints on the RV. The cavity pressure loadings on the RV for these analyses result from mass and energy data for double ended pipe guillotine ruptures equivalent to or larger in area than the actual pipe b'reak. The same differential pressures applied to the RV are also applied to the primary shield wall. 11.1.4.3 Computer Codes Used For NSSS Analysis The three analytical computer programs and the four data reduction codes used in the seismic and/or LOCA analyses for the support design loads are described

STALUM - A computer program for analyzing three-dimensional, finite segment systems ccasisting of uniform or nonuniform bar/ piping segments, closed-loop arrangements, and supporting elements. STALUM performs both static and dynamic structural analyses undergoing small linear, elastic deformations. The static analysis is based on the matrix displacement method. The static loadings are static mechanical forces, thermal, and/or support displacement loadings. The dynamic analysis is based on lumped-mass and normal-mode extraction techniques. The dynamic input loadings can be response spectra or time history forcing functions. The, essential input to the program consists of the physical properties of the system, the boundary conditions, and/or the loading information; the essential output consists of the resultant joint displacements, rotations, forces, moments ar. both ends of each segment, and stresses at various locations in each segment. mi1181-0953a141

68 11.1.5 Seismic Analysis Utilizing the geometric and structural properties cf the mathematical model shown in Figures 11.1 thru 11.6; the STALUM code is used to determine the structural frequencies and mode shapes of the isolated NSSS, the internal walls, structure and the NSSS supports as a coupled system. Each elcment or bar in the model is assigned a damping value based on the location and type of component the element represents. Strain energy camping is used to determine a composite damping for each mode. The modal accelerations are applied to the model dynamically to reflect the structural amplification. Equivalent static forces for each mode are determined and applied to each degree of freedom to give resulting modal displacements and member forces. The modal responses for each individual earthquake will be combined by the SRSS method as described in the response to 1 Regulatory Guide 1.92 in Section 3A of the FSAR. The resulting l member loads and displacements will be combined by taking the i SRSS of all five earthquake excitations (three translational and two rotational). Figure 11.10 shows the flow diagram for the seismic analysis.

Displacement and member force responses are determined for each node or joint and element. The resulting displacements and member forces and moments are stored such that time-for-time or peak results are available for any member or joint.

The current forecast date for completion is anticipated in the spring of 1983. mil 181-0953a141 .c

86 13.0 Construction Status and Schedule The stiffening of the shield plug brackets to form the ULS, and the machining of the flat surfaces on the reactor pressure vessel in both units are complete. Unit I studs were detensioned to a nominal stress of 6 ksi and the lift-off forces measured during detensioning are given in Appendix C. Detensioning, measuring lift-off loads, and retensioning the studs in Unit 2, as described in Section 8 of this report, is scheduled for completion in May 1982. This will be followed by detensioning and retensioning the studs in Unit I to their final prestress level, and this is scheduled for completion on October 1982. The insulation will be modified and installed as described in Section 9 of this report after the cold hydro and before the hot functional testing. mi1181-0953a141

87 s 14.0 Conclusion This report has described the analysis and design of the modified reactor vessel support system for the Midland Nuclear Power Station. Particular attention has been devoted to the physical modification required for the upper lateral support, computer modeling and analytical techniques being used. The methods presented herein represent the standard techniques utilized by the NSSS suppliers for primary system analyses and by A/E's in designing Category I structures. The design modification is mandatory for Unit 1 because of the anch,r stud failures experienced. Based on the investigations conducted, the Company has decided to modify the Unit 2 reactor support design to be identical with that of Unit 1. Thus the analyses of the NSSS for both units will be covered by a single analysis. This report provides updated information regarding the design and analytical techniques stemming from engineering evolution in the course of this project. The design of the upper lateral supports has proceeded using preliminary design loads as described in this report. The supports are designed with respect to these preliminary loads using conservative assumptions. The confirmation of the adequacy of the design will be made upon receipt of the final support loads, and the project schedule indicates that this will occur around November of 1982. In the event that further evolutions occur in either the design or i j analyses described in this report, the Company will submit them as mi1181-0953a141

88 amend;.ents of this report to tha NRC. The final analytical results and design details will be incorporated, as necessary, by amendment into the FSAR. mil 181-0953al41

Calibration or 1 recalibration shall be done as shown in the j sequence of work or at maximum 30-day intervala. i a. Calibrate the pressure gages in the pressure range of 500 to 10,000 psi. j _ Ensure that the pressure indicated by the gage is within +0.5% of the true i pressure in the 2,000 to 10,000 psi i pressure range b. Mark each ran and pressure gage set so i they are easily identifiable as a set. j These sets must be calibrated and used in the field as a set. Pressure gages shall not be switched between sets. If )i ~ a gage requires repair or replacement, the set must be recalibrated unless a 1 gage with a calibration curve matching i the first is available. (Notify i. project engineering before proceeding j with recalibration.) c. Before calibration, exercise rams three j strokes 0 to 0.9 of full extension at ] 30%,- 50%, and 80% of ram capacity. d. As a minimum, ram pressure calibration i data points shall be taken at the ] following increments: I 1 A5

Pressure Range Pressure Increment (psi) (esi) O to 3,000 500 3,0GO to 10,000 1,000 or maximum capacity of the ram 1 Three sets of load versus pressure readings shall be taken for each ram j pressure gage combination. If the measured loads at a particular pressure level in the three sets of data deviate by more than +1%, additional sets of data shall be taken until consistency is attained. e. Rams are to be calibrated at an extension of 1 inch and must be calibrated in the active mode with the ram actuated by the pump and forcing load on the test machine i f. All calibration measurements are to be 1 traceable to the National Bureau of j Standards. If a testing machine is used for calibrations, its calibration shall have been certified within the last year. A copy of the testing machine's certification of calibration and any other reference standards used in the calibration shall be submitted to project engineering and MPQAD with J the ram and pressure gage calibration data. f g. Recalibration shall be performed in a similar manner as described in Sections 8.1, Items c, d, e, and f. If the ram pressure gage combination recalibration readings are found to deviate more than +1% from the measured load, the project enginc.ar shall be notified immediately. 8.2 RETENSIONING EQUIPMEIR The retensioning ram and hydraulic pressure gage assembly shall be calibrated with a universal i testing machine or other calibrated standard. The system shall be calibrated before tensioning A-6

i 4 Unit 2 anchor bolts and again before tensioning Unit 1 anchor bolts. The system calibration shall also be checked after completing Unit 1 tensioning. The calibration can be rechecked using the frame shown in j Appendix 1, Page 1-9. 8.3 CALIBRATION OE' EXTENSOMETER I The procedure for calibration and use of the extensometer shall be provided by Raymond Bolting Services and submitted for review to project engineering and MPQAD. 8.4 RECORDS All calibration procedures and records shall be prepared and submitted to project engineering and MPQAD fcr review. Records shall be maintained indicating all pressure 1 readings against st=ad=ed pressure gages, load I readings against standard loads, and extensometer readings against loads applied by a calibrated stapdard. 9.0 UNIT 2 DETENSIONING 9.1 PREPARATION 4 Prior to taking any readings or setting up detensioning equipment, all threads and stud j ends shall be cleaned to facilitate removal of the nuts. The studs ends shall be inspected j by Raymond Bolting Services for conditions i i which could affect extenseneter readings. Methods of cleaning, acceptability of j cleaning, and methods of repair shall be ) determined by field engineering. If there are ~ burrs on the RPV skirt between anchor bolts in the bearing area of the detensioning frame, j they shall be removed by procedures acceptable to the RPV manufacturer. l 9.2 INITIAL EXTENSOMETER READING 3 i I When preparations have been completed, two complete sets of extensometer readings shall be taken on the studs in their present, o j tensioned state. These readings shall be l taken according to the extensometer manufacturer's instructions. One complete set i of readings shall be taken and recorded; then a second set shall be taken and recorded. If the two lengths are not identical (acceptable A-7

tolerance to be determined by Raymond Bolting Services), then the readings shall be repeated until agreement is reached. These readings i shall be recorded against the Teledyne stud numbering system. (See Appendix 2 for the numbering systea.) 9.3 LIFT-OFF READINGS When the initial extensometer readings are " ~ complete, the existing preload forces in the Unit 2 anchor studs can be measured as follows: The detensioning frame shall be set up as shown in Appendix 1, Pages 1-1 through 1-4, starting with stud 37 (Teledyne numbering system). The cross beam and ran support blocks shall be installed first (see schematic in Appendia 1., Page 1-7). When this is done, the stud coupler with the transducer and cable inserted can be installed. The transducer shall be attached to the stud end according to the instrument manufacturer's instructiors. The stud coupler shall then be placed ove:- the transducer and connected to the stud. During this operation, care shall be taken so the transducer is not dislodged or the cable from the transducer is not damaged. When the cross beam and stud coupler are installed, the hydraulic ram support blocks can be placed on the RPV flange. The blocks shall be level and, if necessary, shall be modified to avoid overlapping washers or the fillet welds on the RPV skirt base. When the support blocks are level, the rams can be installed. The rams shall be vertical and placed directly under the cross beam centerline. The rams shall be installed so the hydraulic hosas are free of sharp kinks and do not rub against sharp corners. The pressure gages shall be positioned to allow easy reading. The rams shall then be jacked to level the cross beam and checked by using a mason's level. A minimum 1-inch extension of the rams is required during the leveling process. When this procedure is complets, the upper nut on the stud coupler shall be brought to a fingertight condition against the crossarm. The displacement gages shall then be installed as shown in Appendix 1., (Page 1-7). The gage support shall be firmly attached to the RPV by A-8

a magnetic attachment so the gages are easily readable but cannot be dislodged during the testing procedure. The lift-off procedure shall begin by recording the initial readings of all displacement gages, pressure gages, and the extensometer. Lift-off shall be determined when 0.002-inch feeler gages can be removed, from between the stud washer and the nut. ~ These feeler gages will be placed in position after passing lift-off on the first stud loading. To accomplish this, the rams shall be pressurized in 100 psi increments until two feeler gages can be easily installed approximately 1/2 to 1 inch under the nut on opposite sides of the stud. The feeler gages shall be within 1/4 inch of the stud and extend under the nut a minimum of 2 int hes past che centerline of the stud. During stud loading, care must be taken to keep the crossarm level by keeping the changes in the level gage readings equal. Adjust the ram pressure to level the crossarm if necessary. If the ratio of ram pressures is greater than 1.05 or less than 0.95, depressurize the rams, L check the alignment, and reset the rams, if necessary. The rams can then be repressurized. When the feeler gages have been installed, the pressures shall be reduced by a minimum of 500 psi below lift-off to the nearest 500 psi or 1,000 psi reading below apparent lift-off. Length gage and the extensometer shall then, pressure gages be read and recorded. During the next portion of the test, a plot of the length gage readings versus pressure shall be made as the test progresses. The pressures shall then be increased in 100 psi increments with the readings recorded and plotted at 200 psi intervals. During this time, the feeler gages shall be gently tugged. When the feeler gages pull out from under the nut, the readings of all instruments shall be recorded as corresponding to lift-off. The test shall carry on far enough (another 300 psi minimum) to show a break in the curve pressure gage reading versus length gage reading, to indicate lift-off. The rams shall then be returned to zero pressure. The nut shall not be turned at this time. If any stud is loaded to 360 kips before lift-off occurs, the load shall be reduced to less A-9

than 200 kips and project engineering shall be informed. Alternatively, the load on the ram can be reduced to zero and the setup moved to the next stud while awaiting the project engineer's instructions. It is anticipated that lift-off will occur at approximately 320 kips, although Unit i lift-off occurred at levels as low as 216 kips. Any stud for which lift-off occurs below J 300 kips must be proof-loaded to 300 kips or j two-times the maximum anticipated stress, but no higher than 344 kips. The proof test value will be given by project engineering before the start of detensioning. This can be done ) after lift-off is measured. I.ength displacement gsgo and extensometer readings shall be recorded at the proof-loading. When studs with centerpoints for machining are encountered, this shall be recorded on the data sheets. This procedure shall be performed on all studs in the sequence shown in Appendix 2, Pages 2-1 through 2-3, before detensioning. The i lift-off readings on the first six studs shall be forwarded to project engineering within one 4 working day of recording. Confirmation will then be made that the applied loads as measured by the pressure gages and, as determined from the extensometer readings are within acceptable tolerances. 9.4 DETENSIONING When lift-off readings and proof-tests have been completed as described in Section 9.3, detensioning may begin. The detensioning frame is to be used as described in i Section 9.3, including the nut socket ring. The studa shall be deten=ioned in the sequence shown in Appendix 2 The detensioning frame shall be installed as previously described, except the displacement gages are not required. When using the detensioning frame, care shall be taken to keep the crossarm level within tolerance and alignment. The studs can be loaded gradually to the previously recorded lift-off pressure. Pressures shall not be allowed to increase more than 100 psi over the 1 previously recorded lift-off pressure. The socket ring is provided to turn the nut when i lift-off pressure is reached. The nut shall l A-10 i

then be retracted approximately 1/4 inch and l load releasing can begin. The load shall be released in increments determined by the elongation measurement capacity of the extensometer. The nut shall be returned to a snugtight condition at each step of the detensioning and the extensometer dial gage and pressure gage readings shall be taken after the load has been released. A complete set of extensometer ~ readings is to be recorded and retained for each detensioning step. This procedure chall be repeated until all Unit 2 studs are detensioned. 9.5 EXTENSCMETER READINGS When the Unit 2 studs are detensioned, a complete set of extensometer readings shall be taken as follows: a. Verify that all nuts are loose by inserting a feeler gage between each nut and washer b. Following the manufacturer's instructions, attach the transducer and obtain an extensometer reading for each stud c. Record this value After this procedure has been completed for all studs, it shall be repeated a second time to verify the readings. 9.6 CHECK CALIBRATION OF DETENSIONING EQUIPMENT Upon completion of detensioning the Unit 2 anchor studs, the calibration of the rams and pressure gages shall be checked an described in Section 8.1. Records shall be maintained as described in Section 8.4. 10.0 RE'1TNSIONING UNIT 2 ANCHOR STUDS 10.1 PREPARATION The anticipated deflection in the studs based upon the stress valge of 5 ksi in the stud tensile stress area of 4 in and which is equivalent to a load of 20 kips is given by: A-11

The anticipated readings to be obserred during the retensioning are as follows: Displacement from UT Length Length Gage Reading on RV Reading at Stud End After Load Stress coupler Top

10.2 RETEISIONING The studs shall be retensioned in the same order of i that shown in Appendix 2, Pages 2-1 through 2 h. J j The retensioning frame shall be installed as shown in Appendix 1, Page 1-8. First, the extensometer transducer shall be installed according to the manufacturer's instructions. The frame, pull rod and coupling shall then be placed over the stud. The coupling and pull rod shall then be connected, taking care net to dislodge the transducer or to damage the cable from the j transducer to the readout unit. After connectdag the pull rod, caution must be exercised to ensure that the hollow-core hydraulic cylinder is centered on the pull rod and the frame and that all bearing surfaces 4 are perpendicular to the pull red. Care must also be taken to ensure that the frame does not rest on adj.acent washers or on the RPV skirt fillets. When alignment is acceptable, the top nut of the pull red shall be brought !J to a snugtight condition. When this is done, ji the ram extension shall be approximately 1 1 inch. Upon completion of the setup, hoses 4 shall be checked to ensure that pressure gages i are visible and no kinks exist. The displacement gage shall be installed securely j. to the RPV and as shown in Appendix 1, Page 1-8. Retensioning may then begin as 1 follows: ) a. Record the readings on the displacement gage and the extensometer l l b. Gradually pressurize the system until ) it reaches the pressure equivalent to the specified loading of 20 kips per l stud on Unit 1. For Unit 2, the retensioning shall con:mence a minimum of 15 days after the detensioning of the last anchor stud. If the Unit 2 studs are to be retensioned 15 to 25 days after detensioning, the speci-fied loading shall be 17 kips. If the Unit 2 studs are to be retensioned 26 to 40 days after detensioning, the specified loading shall be 18 kips. If more than 45 days, the specified loading shall be 20 kips. w A-13

c. Record the displacement gage and extensometer readings at that time d. Bring the nut to a snugtight condition and release the load e. Record the displacement gage and extensometer reading again f. To compensate for relaxation, subtract the extensometer reading taken in Item e (above) from that taken in Item c (above). Add this difference to the readings taken in Item c and reload this stud until the displacement gage and extensometer reaches the total value. Bring the nut to a snugtight condition and release the load. g. Recheck the displacement gage and extensometers to ensure that they are within iS% of the readings taken in Item e above which correspond to the specified load- } ing. Record the displacement gage and extensometer reading. If the values are not acceptable, repeat the retensioning of the particular stud. b i 4 \\ 4 A-lh

h. Repeat this procedure on all studs When retensioning of all bolts has been completed once, the load level shall be checked and adjusted in the following manner. For retensioning, the procedure shall follow in the same order of that given in Appendix 2, pages 2-1 through 2-4. 1 First, a complete set of extensometer readihgs shall be taken. The reference length of the respective stud obtained in 9.5c shall be dialed in to the instrument, and the existing stretch read and recorded. The existing load shall then be obtained as follows: [aE P = 20 kips ,X 3 3 (AEC) where P = the calculated actual load existing in g the stud AE = the measured stud extension (difference 3 between remeasured length and initial length at zero load) aEC = the measured stud extension obtained with the 20 kip load in 10.2c If P4, equals 20 kips +10L the load in the stud is acceptable. If P is less than 18 kips or A greater than 22 kips, PA shall be adjusted as follows: The values of P shall be submitted to Project Engineer-A ing. Project Engineering will calculate the UT extenso-meter deflection required for PA to reach the specified load. The corresponding adjusted displacement gage reading including the stretch in the coupling stud will also be given. These data vill then be used in the following procedure. j The retensioning frame shall be set up as described in Section 10.2. Initial readings in the extensometer and displactnent gages shall be recorded. By dialing in the stud reference length, the initial extensometer extension reading should equal 4E Next, a ) plot of pressure versus' length displacement shall be made. The ram shall be gradually pressurized. Extensometer readings shall be recorded, and length gage readings shall be recorded and plotted at 500 psi increments A-15

i until the ram pressure is within 500 psi of the pressure required at P. (the existing load in the bolt). Subsequently, readings shall be taken and plotted at 100 psi intervals. The tensioning shall continue until the extensometer stretch is that required for P = 20 kips. The plotted curve should then show a change in slope at P, and the change ~, A in length gage reading from P to P = 20 kips 3 should equal that calculated by project engineering. If this is not the case, notify project engineering. If the readings are correct, complete the tension adjustment by following the procedure outlined in Section 10.2, Items d, e, f, and g. This i procedure shall be repeated until all measured elongations (loads) are within 110% of that obtained at the specified load. This is considered to be equivalent to a stress of 5 kai 10.5 kai. When the actual loads have been found acceptable, the jam nuts shall be placed on the studs and tightened shortly before installa- . tion of the insulation on the I! nit 2 RDV and a.minie of 30 days after all of the studs have been found acceptable and the jam nuts installed on additional set of two extensometer readings on each Unit 2 anchor stud shall be taken. These readings shall be reported l to Project Engineering for review. 10.3 CHECK CALIBRATION OF RETENSIONING EQUIPMENT Upon completion of the retensioning of the Unit 2 anchor studs, the calibration of the rams and pressure gages shall be checked as described in Section 8.1 and 8.2. Records shall be maintained as described in Section 8.4. ~ 11.0 DETENSIONING UNIT 1 ANCHOR STUDS 11.1 PREPARATION Anchor studs shall be prepared as described in Section 9.1. 11.2 INITIAL EXTENSOMETER READINGS One set of extensometer readings shall be taken on the studs as described in Section 9.2. These values shall be recorded and are for project engineering information purposes only. i 11.3 DETENSIONING When the initial extensometer readings are taken, the jam nut can be removed from the A-16

stud and the stud can be detensioned. This shall be done in the order shown in Appendix 2. Detensioning is to be done using the retensioning frame without the ~ displacement gages or extensometer installed. 12.0 RETENSICNING UNIT 1 ANCHOR STLTS 12.1 PREPARATION Preparation for retensioning Unit 1 is as described in Section.10.1. 12.2 EXTENSOMETER READINGS A complete set of extensometer readings shall be taken on the detensioned studs as described in Section 9.5. 12.3 RECALIBRATION Before commencing Unit 1 anchor stud ram retensioning, the retensioning ram, pressure gage, and pump assembly shall be recalibrated as described in Section 8.2 or by checking the assembly in the strain gage frame shown in Appendix 1, Page 1-9. This frame shall have been previously calibrated by measuring the strain shown in the strain gages versus the applied load applied by a certified testing machine. Records shall be maintained as described in Section 8.4. 12.4 PROOF-TESTING Designated studs in Unit 1 will require proof-testing to two times the maximum anticipated ~ stress, but no higher than 344 kips. The proof test value and stud numbers will be given by project engineering before the start of retensioning. These proof test requirements will be determined upon review of the lift-off data from Unit 2. The procedure is as follows. After the studs have been detensioned, two sets of extensometer readings shall be taken as described in Section 9.5. The Unit 2 detensioning frame shall be installed as described in Section 9.3 with the extensometer and dial gages in place. The load shall be brought to the given value in stages as determined by the extensometer capacity. When the load is at the proof-test value, it shall be held for 1 minute and then removed in stages as described in Section 9.4. A A-17 l

1 l 4 l complete set of extensometer, pressure, and dial gage readings shall be recorded for this operation. Upon completion of the proof-testing of the Unit 1 anchor studs, the calibration of the rams and pressure gages shall be checked as described in Section 8.1. Records shall be maintained as described in Section 8.4. 12.5 RETENSIONING ~ Retensioning shall be done as described in Section 10.2. In addition to the anticipated readings shown in Section 10.1, the following are expected for studs which have a turned down shank with a gross area of 4.0 square inches. These studs have a centerpoint for machining. Displacement Load Stress cage Reading UT Length j (kips) (ksi) {in.)

Hot functional tests are scheduled as follows: Unit 1 May 1 to June 26, 1983 Uni t 2 January 26 to Barch 22, 1983 Instruments for the gap and temperature neasurement shall be installed before the HFT. 6.2 CONDITIONS OF SERVICE The anticipated maximum temperature at the RPV surface is 530F. Although the reactor cavity air temperature vill be lover, the distance measuring instruments, thermocouples and associated viring shall be rated for use in the temperature range of 500 to 600 F and humidity range of 0 to 1007.. Ihe recorders or readout units will be remote from the RPY in an area outside the reactor cavity and will be subject to changes in tempera ture and humidity during the testing period. Ihe expected minimum and mariana temperatures are 50 and 120F, respectively. 20 CENER A L P EO UTR EEEEIS, 21 REFINITIONS A) Sas11 distanca transducers are g means of converting the physical movement of an object into an electrical signal. Eor purpose of this specification, the distances to be seasured are less than 1 inch. Ihe instruments are to;be capable of resolving a novement of 0.001 inch. Ivo types of transducers are mentioned in this appendix: the eddy-current noncon tac ting type and the contacting irpe. Ihe eddy-currant noncontacting type works by producing magnetic fields which induce eddy currents in the B-3

adjacent ta rge t as terial. Changes in distance from the transducer to the s target result in impedasca changes in the active coil of the transducer, 1 ghich can be seasured and converted to d distance sensurement. Ihe Contacting type transdurer has a aoveable spindle within a fixed coil assenbir.

t l APPENDIX D: Justification of the Ductility Ratio for Use in the Design of the ULS N mi1181-0953a141

n The following-provides the justification for the use of an allowable ductility ratio of 10 in the design of the upper lateral support (ULS) brackets: 1. The least radii of gyration (r,g,,) at Sections 1 through 6 (See Figure 5.1 f' rom Section 5.0 of this report) are given in the table below. Section 1 2 3 4 5 6 r. (in.) 4.85 4.41 4.48 4.57 5.59 4.97 min. The effective buckling length of the brackets, assuming that the end welded to the steel embedment is clamped and the end in contact with the RV can, displace without rotation, is 1.2 times the length of the bracket (42 in.); see' Reference D1. Using the least r. from the table above, a min. J - conservative (upper bound) effective slenderness ratio (KL/r) for the brackets can'oe calculated as follows, namely KL/r = (1.2 x 42)/4.41 = 11.4. 2. Reference'D2 specifies that the slenderness ratio of a stub-column must not exceed 20. In otherwords, to insure that the column will yield, undergo plastic deformation and go into strain hardening; its slenderness ratio should be equal to or less than 20. 3. The column strength curves established by the structural stability research~ council for rolled and welded built-up sections (Reference D3) indicates that the strength of columns where A5 15 will be controlled by yielding rather than buckling, where A is defined as, A = fE. The parameter A for the ULS brackets is equal to 0.13 which is less than 0.15. l ~~ mi1181-0953a141 D-1 a

=. w 4. Norrir and others (Reference D4) stated that a compression member will develop its full ultimate compressive strength without buckling if its ' effective slenderness ratio does not exceed 15. 5. One can establish based on the aforementioned arguments that the brackets .can develop their ultimate compressive strength without buckling. In this case, the allowable ductility can be as high as , where cy and est are the strains at the initiation of yielding and at the onset of strain I hardening, respectively. For structural steels with a yield stress of 50 ksi or less, a lower bound value for **' is equal to 10, see Reference DS. cy 6. In addition to what has been outlined above, the AISC nuclear specifica-225 tion (Reference D6) allows a ductility ratio in compression of 'A2 with a maximum of 10. Using A = 0.13, for the brackets, the allowable ductility I calculated from the AISC formula is more than 10; in this case, an allowable ductility of 10 should be used. t 7. Furthermore, the ASCE Committee on impactive and impulsive loads allows a ductility ratio of 140,000/oy(fb)2 with a n x vun of 10, see Reference D7. Using cy = 38 ksi and -L = 11.4 c r ae .ackets, the allowable K ductility ratio calculated from the ASCf formula 9xceeds 10, in such a case the maximum value of 10 should be used. 8. In order to achieve the established allowable ductility ratio withrut premature local buckling of plate elements, the AISC specification (Reference 6)doesnotallowthewidth/thicknessratio"toexceed76/ycy' .forunstiffenedplateelementsand238/./3y'forstiffenedplateelements. The width / thickness ratios for the plate elements of the ULS brackets satisfy these requirements. mi1181-0953a141 D-2

J i 9. The presence' of bending in the brackets -is considered in establishing ' the - -axial compression which will intiate yielding. Furthermore, the allowable . ductility ratio in bending is 12.5 (See References D6 and D7). Hence..the presence of bending will not cause the ' allowable ductility to be less than 10. j. l i l l l l. l .mi1181-0953a141 0,-3 e -y v

-r-o APPENDIX E: Methodology for the Computation of the Mathematically Equivalent ULS Spring Rates l mi1181-0953a141

The following provides the methodology to develop the spring rates for the RV upper = lateral support (ULS) brackets: 1. Capacity of the ULS Brackets Under Axial Compression and Bending: Under combined axial compression and bending the axial capacity "Py" is determined from the AISC interaction formulas given in Section 2.4, Reference E1. Since the bracket has a variable cross-sectional properties along its length and the bending moment varies due to the variation of the axial load eccentricities, the axial capacity "Py" was calculated at six different sections (See Figure 5.1 from Section 5.0 of this report). The capacity "Py" used is the minimum obtained. In order to insure that the axial capacity "Py" will be reached without premature local buckling of the bracket's plate elements; the width-thickness ratios of these elements satisfy the requirements of Section 2.7 of the AISC specification (Reference EI). 2. Lead-Displacement Relationship of Individual Brackets: Load-Displacement relationship of individual brackets are shown in Figure E-1. The axial capacity "Py" is calculated as described in Item 1 above. The corresponding displacement Ay is calculated as follows: 5 OY* i= 1 Where E = Young's Modulus of Elasticity, Ai = Average Cross-Sectional Area of Segment i, and Li = Length of Segment i The bracket was divided into 5 segments as shown in Figure 5.1 of this report. mi1181-0953a141 E-1 l

I The maximum displacement Amax is. equal to 10 x Ay; using an allowable ductility ratio of 10. 3. Spring Constant Curves'(Load-Displacement - Relationship) for ULS Brackets Combination in a Specified Direction: To determine the load-displacement relationship for the ULS brackets combination in the three directions given in Section 11.1.2.4 of this report and illustrated in Figures 11.11 through 11.13; the structural model shown in Figure E-2 was used. For a given direction of motion and from geometry, the first brackets to come in contact with the RV are determined. A structural analysis is then carried out using the model shown in Figure E-2 with the brackets in contact only supporting the RV. From this analysis, the load-displacement relationship of the system is determined. The load and the corresponding displacement of the system to cause contact with additional brackets are then calculated. This load and the corresponding displacement represent a point on the load-displacement curve where stiffness changes. At this point, the new bracket or brackets to come in contact with the RV is added to the model and a new load-displacement relationship is determined. The process is repeated until all the brackets in contact with the vessel yield or the displacement exceed 10 times the displacement of the bracket which yielded first. When a bracket reaches its yield capacity Py, the support provided by the bracket is removed from the model. A load equal to Py representing the capacity of the yielded bracket, however,'is applied on the vessel opposite to,the direction of motion. The load at which one or more brackets yield and the corresponding displacement represent a point on the load-displacement curve where stiffness changes. mi1181-0953a141 E-2

Subject:

Reaffirmation of Letter Report TR-5255-1, Expanded Criteria for Acceptability for Service for Midland Unit 1 RPV Anchor Studs

Dear Mr. Slager:

TES TR-5355-1 expanded the criteria for acceptability of the subject studs to include Service Levels B, C and D limits in addition to the Service Level A criteria provided by TES TR-3887-2, Rev.1. At a December 2,1981 meeting, NRC questioned the expanded criteria and provided the basis for their concern. TES has evaluated all available information and reaffirms the reconinendation of TR-5355-1. The background may be summarized as follows: 1. The RPV is constrained from rotation during a system faulted condi-tion by studs which restrain a flanged RPV support skirt against a pedestal upper ring plate. 2. The studs in question are 2-1/2" in diameter and 7'-4" long and are tensioned between the upper surf ace of the skirt flange and a lower ring plate near the bottom of the studs. 3. Lateral shear is carried by separate structural elements, so the stud carries no significant lateral shear. 4. The stud is tensioned by a stud tensioner, not by torquing, so the stud carries no significant torsional shear. 5. Three of the 96 studs f ailed by stress corrosion cracking after in-stallation as a consequence of the combined e-fects of stud ma-terials, atmosphere, and prestressing. 6. Certain design revisions were adopted which inclJded decreasing the 'i prestress to a small (less than 6 ksi) value to avc id long-term stress l corrosion cracking and limiting the service stress to a value propor-tional to the stress to which the studs were loadtd subsequent to the period of initial high prestress. The minimum *,alue of this stress ~ the av'e$gF?% measured during the 1980 detensioning was 75 '.si and value was approximately 85 ksi. 4 7

.e WTELEDYNE Consumers Power Company ENGNEERING SERMCES December 11, 1981 + Page Two 5355-2 7. Because of the previous stress corrosion cracking and because the fracture toughness of such studs is relatable to susceptibility to such cracking one must assume that the stress carrying capability of a stud is limited to that which has been demonstrated. Therefore, the effective yield strength, effective ultimate tensile strength and failure load strength of the stud must be considered to be no higher than that measured, even though that value is much smaller than the minimum specified yield strength. 8. The basic allowable stress, Service Level A, should be taken as one-half of the effective ultimate tensile strength. Increase factors may be applied to the Service Level A values for Service Levels B, C and D. 9. Although satisfaction of ASME Code rules is not required for Midland component supports, ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Subsection NF rules are to be applied for guidance. 4

10. Regulatory Guide 1.124 is applicable to the Midland component sup-ports.

The above listing is intended to sumarize the background in a manner which is consistent with past discussions and which is acceptable to all parties. The present issue is that of establishing the increase factors applied' to the Service Level A values to determine the allowable value for Service Level D. Although there arc differences in the increase factors proposed for Service Levels B and C, tne differences are slight and the lower of the two values is acceptable. There are also partially compensating dif-ferences in the quantities to be multiplied by the increase factors. The differences may be sumarized as follows: Service Level TES NRC A 0.500 S 0.500 S T N 8 0.500 S 0.575 S T N C 0.667 S 0.625 S T y 0 0.700 S 0.625 S T N wnere: ST = The lowest value measured on any stud during the 1980 detensioning, 75 ksi, or a higher value if con-firmed by a specific test on the specific stud at a later time. SN = The value measured on a specific stud, whether in 1980 or at a later time. F-2

'RTELEDYNE Consumers Power Company ENGINEERING SERVICES December 11, 1981 Page Three 5355-2 l Specific values for Service Level D for the more highly stressed studs are as follows: Outer Stud 1980 Value TES NRC Calculated 38 85 52.5 53.1 37.5 37 75 52.5 46.7 44.8 34 85 52.5 53.1 49.2 33 92 52.5 57.5 44.6 32 83 52.5 51.9 43.0 31 94 52.5 58.7 41.9 The tabulated calculated values are those now calculated, and all are sufficiently low as to satisfy either the TES or NRC criteria. However the margin for stud 37 is but 1.04 against the NRC allowable as compared to 1.17 against the TES allowable. Similar values for stud 34 are 1.08 and 1.07, respectively. Margins for all other studs are above 1.18 against either criteria. Subsequent calculations may result in increased values, and the minimum margin against the NRC criteria is but 1.04 as compared to 1.07 for the TES criteria. These numbers are misleading, however, because the TES procedure would permit increasing the margin for stud 34 to 1.17, the value applicable to stud 37, by retesting to 82.4 ksi, a value smaller than that measured in 1980. Any increase in the margin with the NRC criterion would require retesting to values higher than those measured in 1980 with significantly increased probability of stud fracture. The apparently small difference between the TES and NRC criteria really repre-sents a major difference in level of risk involved in satisfactory comple-tion of construction. It is this concern that causes us to try to justify the previous TES position. The difference between the TES and NRC criteria arises because Subsection NF provides for more than one desis n procedure for component supports. TES has applied the load rating pror edure, a procedure which is completely defined by Subsection NF and Regulatory Guide 1.124. NRC has applied the design by analysis procedure, and has introduced as part of that procedure an incomplete and unpublished action of the ASME Committee. Even if that action were complete and published, however, it would only be applicable to the design by analysis procedure and would not be a requirement when the load rating procedure was applied. Furthermore, we will demonstrate that the present direction of the Cornnittee completing thtt action is ac - ceptance of an increase f actor equal to that used in the TES criteria. Justification for use of the load rating procedure is provided in TR-5355-1 so will not be repeated here other than reemphasizing that that procedure permits a sampling procedure, whereas each and every Midland stud was tested. It is also noted that there is no Subsection NF prohibition against applying the load rating procedure to component supports which include threaded parts. F-3 1

^ P TELEDYNE Consumers Power Company ENGNEERING SERVICES December 11, 1981 Page Four 5355-2 The present Subsection NF may be considered by NRC to be incomplete with respect to Levels C and D Service Limits for bolts when the desion by analysis procedure is used. TES considers the present rules to be complete and consistent with the increase factors applied by the TES criteria. ASME Main Committee Action 81-73 at the January 1981 meeting revised the rules for bolts when the design by analysis procedure is followed. Publi-cation has been withheld pending completion of the NF-3000 rewrite. That action applied the same increase factor for Service Level D as for Service Level C,1.25 which results in the previously stated limit of 0.625 S

  • N However, the action taken qualified the Level D factor as an interim value pending revision of Appendix F.

(The Working Group on Component Supports had previously approved the action without an increase factor but with words referencing Appendix F.) Appendix F is being revised and the re-quired words are included in F-1335.1 of Draft 11 dated August 1981. This reads: 3 "The average tensile stress computed on the basis of the avail-able tensile stress area (independent of any initial tightening force), shall not exceed the smaller of 0.7 S IS. When high u y strength bolts or threaded parts having an ultimate strength greater than 100 ksi (689 MP ) at operating temperature, are a used in component applications, the maximum value of the stress at the periphery of the bolt cross section resulting from direct tension plus bending and excluding stress concentrations shall not exceed S. The bolt load shall be the sum of the external u load and any bolt tension resulting from prying action produced by deformation of the connected parts." It is our understanding, based upon participation on the Task Group, that the.. is concern over permitting S in some applications, but we have not heard any concern about the 0.7 S ycriterion. u Based on this discussion, TES is of the opinion that the criteria recom-mended by TR-5355-1 is applicable to the studs in question and is in complete conformance with Code and Regulatory Guide requirements. We recomend that this proposal be applied rather than the alternative pro-posal of NRC. Very truly yours, TELEDYNE ENGINEERING SERVICES p William E. Cooper Consulting Engineer WEC/lh F-4 .-}}
