1.0 INTRODUCTION

During the Spring 1990 refueling outage, Georgia Power Company (GPC) performed ultrasonic examinations on recirculation, residual heat removal (RHR) and reactor water clean-up (RWCU) J system welds at Plant E. I. Hatch Unit 1 (Hatch Unit 1) in accordance with GPC's commitment related to NRC Generic Letter 88-01 and NUREG-0313, Rev. 2 (1). These inspections included flawed, unflawed and previously overlayed repaired welds in these systems. During these inspections, flaws believed to be due to' intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) were detected in twelve 28-inch diameter recirculation pipe welds which required weld overlay repairs. IGSCC flaws in five of these welds were previously detected during the Winter 1985/86 refueling outage but were left unrepaired based on flawed pipe evaluations (2];

hence a total of seven new flawed welds were identified in the 28-inch diameter recirculation pipe welds during the 1990 refueling outage. Four unrepaired flawed welds which were mitigated by induction' heating stress improvement (IHSI) during-the 1985/86 outage were also inspected. No changes were found in the flaws in these welds compared to previous inspection results.

These welds have thus remained stable since-the 1985/86 outage.

Flaw descriptions of these four welds were previously provided after the 1985/86 refueling outage [2]. No other new flaws were detected in the smaller diameter pipes of the recirculation, system nor in the-other piping system welds which were included in the inspection program. A summary of the f' law descriptions for the twelve 28-inch diameter recirculation flawed welds is presented in Appendix A.

Weld overlay repairs have been applied at Hatch Unit 1 since 1982. Thirty-five (35) overlays were either newly applied or- -

built-up and surface finished during the 1985/86 outage [2]. Of these thirty-five overlays, four were in the reactor water cleanup (RWCU) system, three were in the residual heat removal (RHR) system and the remaining twenty-eight (28) were in the SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 1-1 M

l recirculation system. In addition, an overlay was applied to an unflawed weld (Wald No. 24B-R-12) to enhance inspectability.

Three more weld overlays were applied to IGSCC-flawed welds on the RWCU system during the Spring 1987 outage (3). During the-Fall 1988 outage, overlays were applied to two safe end-to-nozzle l welds (4) in the recirculation system. In addition, during the 1988 outage, the RWCU system inside containment (from the drywell penetration- X-14 to the RHR suction line) was replaced eliminating all the seven previously applied weld overlays on I

this. system. During the replacement of this portion of the RWCU '

system, two welds which had undergone repairs during installation, (Weld Nos. 6-D-1 and 6-D-9) were also repaired by weld overlays. These weld repairs were not associated with IGSCC and as such the weld overlays of these two welds are not classified as IGSCC repairs. t In summary, a total of thirty-four weld overlays associated with IGSCC were present at Hatch Unit 1 prior to the 1990 outage.

These include the overlay on RHR weld 24B-R-12, which although not IGSCC-related, is classified and inspected as a NUREG-0313,-

Rev. 2 Category E weldmsnt. Two overlays applied on the newly ,

replaced RWCU system during the 1988 outage are also not IGSCC-related. Twelve additional overlays associated with IGSCC were applied during the 1990 outage bringing the total number of IGSCC-related overlays to forty-six (46) at Hatch Unit 1. There also remain four flawed, unoverlayed but IHSI-mitigated welds in the plant, which remained unchanged from prior inspections.

A selected number of the pre-1990 outage overlays were inspected during the 1990 outage per GPC's in-service inspection.

commitment. There was no evidence of cracks propagating into the-overlays in these welds. Minor flaws associated with lack of fusion between weld beads, which occurred during the overlay repairs, were observed in some of these overlays. They were evaluated per the requirements of the ASME,Section XI (5].

The purpose of this report is to document the design / analysis and evaluation activities conducted on the twelve 28-inch diameter

. flawed welds identified during the 1990 outage. The evaluations of the pre-1990 weld overlay repairs and flawed welds have been documented previously (2,3,4). Flaws identified in weld overlays repaired before the 1990 outage, but inspected during the ' 1990 outage, will also be docenented. Section 2 of this report presents the weld overlay design and flaw evaluation criteria.

Section 3 presents stress components and stress combination data.

Information on pipe component dimensions is also included in this section. Section 4 presents evaluation methods and results. A comparison of design and as-built weld overlay dimensions is also presented in Section 4. Section 5 addresses the system-wide i effects of weld overlay shrinkage on unoverlayed welds in the system. The analysis which was performed on the Hatch Unit 1 recirculation system is presented together with predicted shrinkage-induced stress data. Sections 6 and 7 present. ,

summary / conclusions and references used in this evaluation.

Appendix A- provides -the UT inspection results for the . twelve 28-inch diameter flawed welds and Appendix B presents the weld overlay design drawings for these welds. Appendix C provides updated flawed pipe analysis of the IHSI-mitigated circumferentially flawed welds.

2.0 REPAIR AND EVALUATION CRITERIA 2.1 ReDair DescrIDtion The twelve weld overlays applied at Hatch Unit 1 during the-1990 refueling outage were designed and repaired as " standard" weld ,

overlays. The repairs were made by increasing the pipe wall  ;

chickness through the deposition of weld metal circumferentially i around the water-backed pipe in the weld region using the machine  !

GTAW welding process. The weld metal used for the weld overlay application was Type 308L stainless steel containing 0.02 wt. %_ 1 maximum carbon with controlled delta ferrite content in order to provide resistance to IGSCC propagation. In addition to providing the required wall thickness to restore the ASME Code safety margin, the welding process in the water-backed condition ,

also produces a strong compressive residual stress pattern on the inside of the pipe which provides further resistance to IGSCC.

The overlay repair for each flawed weld was carefully controlled using the'following steps in order to assure the integrity of the

,verlay:

1. Surface preparation-by grinding of existing weld crowns and any local protrusions to blend smoothly into the base metal plus the removal of oxides and other foreign materials from the area to be overlayed.
2. Iayout of weld overlay per the design drawing by i punchmarking appropriately on the pipea
3. Liquid penetrant examination of the surface to be overlayed to assure surface is free of indications in accordance with ASME,Section XI (5).
4. Measurement of wall thickness on each side of the weld to be overlayed using UT techniques.

'5. Delta ferrite content measurement of the completed first layer - to meet the ferrite content requirement of 7.5 FN.

Where the ferrite level was below 7.5 FN, the extremely low carbon level was demonstrated to provide equivalent IGSCC resistance at the reduced ferrite level. (See Section 4.4 for detail)

'2.2 Desian of Standard Weld Overlav Renairs l The requirements for design of. weld overlay repairs are defined in NUREG-0313, Rev. 2 (1). The analytical bases for the design of.the repairs are in accordance with the requirements of ASME Section XI, IWB-3641 [5) as specified in NUREG-0313. Weld j overlay repairs are considered to be acceptable long term repairs to :IGSCC-flawed weldments if they meet a conservative set - of- 3 design assumptions which qualify them as " standard" weld l l

overlays, in accordance with NUREG-0313. The three - principal design requirements to qualify a weld overlay as a " standard" weld overlay and, therefore, as an ;ISCC Category E weld in 1 accordance with Reference 1 are:

1. The design basis flaw for the repair is a

In addition, potential concerns. about .the toughness of the original butt weld material are not applicable, since no credit is taken in the design '

process for. the load carrying capability of the remaining component wall ligament.  :

2. As. required by ASME Section XI,. IWB-3641 (5), a combination of internal pressure, deadweight and seismic stresses is used in the design of weld overlay repairs.- Thermal and other secondary stresses are not required to be addressed, since the toughness of the original butt weld material is not a concern for a standard weld overlay, and since no credit is taken for the remaining uncracked ligament in the original pipe wall.
3. Following the repair, the surface finish of the repair.

must. be sufficiently smooth to allow ultrasonic examination through the overlay material and into a

, portion of the original wall. The purpose of this j examination'is, in part, to demonstrate that the repair- )

l thickness does not degrade with time due to continued ..

flaw propagation.

2.3 Evaluation of Flaws in Weld Overlavs 1

During UT examination of pre-1990 outage overlays and also the J l

overlay repairs performed during the 1990 outage, indications .

were identified in some of these overlays. Most of these indications were classified as lack of fusion between weld beads during'the overlay application with no measurable width. These ,

indications are evaluated against the requirements of ASME~ 1 '

L 3.0 STRESS COMPONENTS AND COMBINATIONS i

'3.1 Summary of Stress Comoonents The stress information required for weld overlay design and . j analysis was taken from Reference 6. The components, considered l in these designs and analyses included pressure, dead weight, i seismic . (OBE) ,- and thermal expansion stresses. These components are - presented in Table 3-1 for each weld requiring repair or evaluation. I 3.2 Stress Combinations for Weld Overlav Desian a i

Table IWB-3641-1 of ASME Section XI [5] defines allowable flaw-depth in austenitic steel base metal and associated gas tungsten a arc welds (GTAW) as a function of the stress ratio (Pm+Pb)/Sm.

Thus-the pertinent stress combination for weld overlay design is:

a i

P, + Pb " pressure + #DW * # seismic Table IWB-3641-5 requires including expansion stresses in the above stress ratio when evaluating flaws in shielded metal arc-or submerged arc weldments (SMAW or SAW), to account for the concern of~ Ootentially low t::,ughness in these flux weld materials.

However, since the design basis for the Hatch Unit 1 weld overlays assumes a through wall flaw extending 360*, no credit for the original flux weld material is taken, and the overlays are entirely GTAW weldments. Therefore, the flux weld toughness e

concern does not apply and thermal stresses are not needed for the overlay design. Thermal stresses are included in Table 3-1 for completeness, however.

)

4.1 pasion of standard Wald overlay __Renairs Where flaws requiring repair were detected during the present outage, weld overlay repairs were designed based upon the criteria described in Section 2. The applied stress ratio used in the weld overlay design was calculated from data presented in Reference 6 with stress components combined as defined in Section 3 of this report. The flaw was assumed to extend 360' circumferentially and to be through the original pipe wall. The program pc-CRACK (7) was used to size the weld overlay utning ASME Section XI, IWB-3640 criteria. Low carbon level, elevated ferrite weld wire was utilized in the overlay welding so that the design thickness could include credit for the first welded layer.

Design and as-built dimensions for the new (1990 outage) weld overlays are presented for comparison in Table 4-1. All weld overlay design drawings are included in Appendix B. The as-built (post-surface finish) thickness for each overlay was compared with the design thickness to determine acceptability of each overlay. The dimension listed in the as-built columns represent the minimum of all data points measured at each weld overlay.

The thicknesses of the as-built overlays meet or exceed the ,

design values in all cases.

4.2 Evaluation of Flaws In Weld Overlav Recairs 1

During the ultrasonic examinations of weld overlay repairs during l the 1990 outage at Hatch Unit 1, embedded flaws were identified

'in a total of seven weld overlay repairs. These flaws and the i weld overlays are summarized in Table 4-2. Five of the flawed r(pairs were applied during previous outages. These cre discussed in section 4.2.1. The remaining two flawed repairs were applied during the 1990 outage. One of the 1990 weld overlay repairs was evaluated as acceptable by IWB-3500. This weld (28B-9) is discussed in section 4.2.2. A metallurgical

" boat sample" was removed from the other weld overlay, weld (28A-2), and the repair was shown to be acceptable based upon the results of metallurgical examination of that sample. The evaluation of 28A-2 is summarized in section 4.2.3. All seven of the weld overlays with identified embedded flaws were shown to be acceptable for continued operation without further repair.

4.2.1 Evaluation of Defects in Pre-1990 Outage Weld Overlays at Hatch Unit 1 During ultrasonic examinations of the weld overlay repairs applied prior to the current outage at Hatch Unit 1, flaw indications were found in five of the overlays. These overlays and the associated indication notifications (INFs) are as follows:

j The flaw indications in these overlays were generally characterized as lack of fusion between weld beads during the overlay application. They are not connected to the original IGSCC flaws in the pipe wall.

1 These flaws have been evaluated under the requirements of ASME Section XI, IWB-3500 (5) utilizing two approaches. In the first )

approach, the flaws were assumed to be planar flaws while in the second approach they were assumed to be laminar flaws. In either l case, the requirements of the Code were satisfied, indicating that the overlays are acceptable for continued operation and that the flaws do not undermine the original design . basis of the  ;

overlays.,

4.2.2 Evaluation of Defects in Weld Overlay Applied to Weld 1B31-1RC-28B-9 As identified in INF No. 190H1045, flaw indications were found in the new weld overlay applied to Weld 1B31-1RC-28B-9 during the post-application ultrasonic examination. The flaw indications were characterized as interbead lack of fusion and they are not connected to the original flaws for which the weld overlay was designed.

The flaws have been evaluated to the requirements of ASME Code,Section XI, IWB-3500 (5) by considering them either as planar or laminar flaws. In either case, the requirements of the Code are satisfied indicating that the subject weld overlay is acceptable for service without modification.

4.2.3 Evaluation of Flaws Identified in the Weld overlay on Weld 1B31-1RC-28A-2 1

The original UT examination of the overlay applied to weld j 1B31-lRC-28A-2 identified laminar indications which were too large to be acceptable by Section XI, IWB-3500 (5). For this reason, a boat sample was removed from the overlay to identify the exact nature of the flaws. A review was performed of a metallurgical report (8) prepared by Babcock & Wilcox (B&W),  !

which documented the laboratory examination of the boat sample. l The sample was directly over an apparent laminar or lack of bond type indication in the weld overlay material, which was detected ultrasonically during the post-repair examination. Reference 8 reported that the observed UT indications were in fact not laminations or lack of bond defects, but were due instead to porosity in the first welded layer of the repair. The report further concluded that the observed porosity would have no significant effect on the mechanical properties of the weldment, '

and is acceptable by ASME Section III, Appendix VI standards for rounded indications.

Structural Integrity's review of the Reference 8 report and related data from the site, resulted in the conclusion that the observed flaws in weld 28A-2 are acceptable without repair or ,

further action beyond repairing the cavity left by the boat sample. This conclusion is based upon the following facts in ,

addition to the B&W observations described above:

6. Reference 8 estimates that the observed porosity results in a reduction in cross sectional area of less than 5%.

(i.e., the original pipe surface was shown to be clean by dye penetrant examination, and the 'first welded layer was shown by actual measurement to contain delta ferrite of at least 7.5 FN).

1. The UT characteristics of the observed porosity indications, as noted during the current examination of this i weld overlay, were recorded and carefully documented for comparison with any future similar " laminar" indications in future weld overlays. Such documentation will aid in the resolution of weld overlay indications in the future.
2. It is believed that indications such as those revealed by the metallurgical examination of the boat sample could be due to contamination of weld material or pipe surface. The procedures associated with dye penetrant examination of pipe surfaces prior to overlay repair and with weld material control were reviewed to determine whether it was desirable  ;

to add controls or hold points to these procedures to increase assurance of clean surfaces and materials.

3. During future ultrasonic examinations of the repair to weld 28A-2, the " laminar" indications will also be examined in detail, in order to provide added assurance that the weld overlay is not degraded. ,

In summary, it was concluded that the observed porosity does not degrade the . integrity of the weld overlay repair on weld 28A-2, and consequently, no further repair activity was required. This  !

conclusion is based upon the observations in Reference 8, and.on the observation that a standard overlay containing the design thickness of 0.46 inches is maintained outboard of the identified porosity indications.

the first weld overlay layer of some of the 28-inch diameter recirculation system weld overlay repairs. Due to the radiation exposure concerns related to requiring one or more additional weld overlay layers if the first layer was disregarded as an IGSCC barrier, an alternative evaluation approach was employed, utilizing Reference 1 guidance, to allow for a limited reduction in ferrite level in the weld provided that sufficient reduction in carbon. level is also present. This approach is described in the following paragraphs.

The evaluation of the acceptability of reduced ferrite, low carbon Type 308L stainless steel consisted of a review of the open literature. This literature review, documented in References 9-11, illustrates that one is technically justified in reducing the ferrite level in this weld metal without reducing the IGSCC resistance if there is a sufficient reduction in the carbor, level. This carbon-ferrite trade-off results from the fact that the materials-related cause of IGSCC in these austenitic stainless steels in the EWR environment is the fact that excess carbon is in solution during the welding or otherwise heat treating of these materials. This excess carbon combines with the chromium which is in solution, thereby forming chromium carbidos preferentially along the grain boundaries. The reduced chromium zone at the grain boundaries, or " chromium depleted zone", is often sufficiently reduced in chromium so that this region is no longer " stainless". A material is identified as

" sensitized" in this condition and IGSCC becomes a real possibility.

Ferrite in the alloy helps prevent the chromium depletion in two ways. Firstly, the equilibrium chromium level in ferrite is much  !

greater than in austenite. Consequently, " chromium depletion" l due to carbide formation has a much less damaging effect at  !

ferrite grain boundaries in an aurtenitic stainless steel which contains ferrite. Secondly, the carbon diffusion in the ferrite SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 4-11 M

ASSOCIATESINC

I is much greater than in the austenite in these steels.

Consequently, most chromium carbide forms at ferrite-austenite or j ferrite-ferrite grain boundaries rather than on austenite-austenite boundaries, where " chromium depletion" is a significant concern.

Low carbon austenitic stainless steel alloys, such as Type 316 nuclear grade stainless steel, attain their excellent resistance l to IGSCC because they contain no more than 0.02 wt. % carbon in the alloy. This family of alloys is identified by Reference 1 as 1 resistant to IGSCC due to a reduced carbon level. Reference 1 also identifies Type 308L stainless steel weld metal, containing 0.035 wt. % carbon and 7.5 FN ferrite, as resistant to IGSCC.

This reference states further, in the case of cast alloys, the further reduction in ferrite to 5 FN is allowable, depending on carbon content and other factors.

Studies have been performed by the Electric Power Research Institute and by General Electric Company to examine the carbon-ferrite trade-off in imparting IGSCC resistance to duplex austeniti iase stainless steel weld metal. References 9 through 11 identity some of that research and Figures 4-3 and 4-4 from References 10 and 11 represent graphical presentations of the IGSCC resistance which can be obtained as one changes the carbon and the ferrite levels in these alloys. One can observe from these figures that there is a strong carbon-ferrite trade-off in providing equivalent resistance to IGSCC in this class of duplex stainless steels. Figure 4-4 illustrates that for austenitic stainless steel castings containing 0.02 wt. % carbon or less, approximately 5.5% ferrite produces an alloy which is highly resistant to IGSCC even in the severely sensitized condition.

One observes from this curve that at a carbon level of 0.035~wt.

%, (as is allowed by Reference 1), more than 12% ferrite would be required to achieve the same resistance to IGSCC. Figure 4-3 illustrates that a decrease in carbon level from 0.035 wt. % to 0.02 wt. % results in a decrease of approximately 2% in the SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 4-12 .

ferrite level necessary to provide an equivalent resistance to IGSCC.

These results illustrate that there is a carbon-ferrite adjustment one can employ for producing an equivalent resistance to IGSCC in the BWR environment. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has recognized that trade-off in NUREG-0313, Rev. 2 (1). The industry has utilized this carbon-ferrite trade-off in specifying acceptance levels for use of cast components as conforming materials by following the guidance presented in Figures 4-3 and 4-4 (10', 11).

At Hatch Unit 1, a heat of Type 308L stainless steel has been I used which contains 0.019 wt. % carbon (Heat # XT5941), and which has produced an as-deposited ferrite content which has been measured at between 6.0 and 7.5 FN ferrite in some beads. Based upon the results presented above, in order to obtain an IGSCC resistance equivalent to that for a heat conta.\ning 7.5 FN ferrite and 0.035 wt. % carbon, one is technically justified in reducing the ferrite to 5.5 FN without reducing the IGSCC resistance in this heat of material below the minimum specified in NUREG-0313, Rev. 2. The results indicate, therefore, that one may use this heat of weld metal for the first overlay weld layer provided no read.ing in that layer is below 5.5 FN ferrite. If a L single reading is below 5.5 FN, but auuve 5.0 FN, one may still 3 accept the la'fer provided that two additional measurements in the q immediate vicinity of the low measurement are equal to or greater '

than 5.5 FN.

5.0 EVALUATION OF WELD OVERLAY SHRINKAGE STRESSES 5.1 Backaround 5.1.1 Causes of Weld overlay Shrinkage Stresses I

Stresses develop in a piping system after application of one or more weld overlays due to the weld shrinkage at the overlays.

These stresses are system-wide, and are similar in nature to

]

restrained free-end thermal expansion or contraction stresses, j The level of stresses resulting from weld overlay shrinkage are a direct result of the number and location of the weld overlays, the shrinkage per overlay, and the piping system geometry. Axial shrinkage produces tensile secondary stresses at locations co-linear with the overlay, and predominantly bending secondary stresses at locations which are separated and not co-linear with the welding location (e.g., locations separated by an elbow, see Figure 5-1). In addition, weld overlays can produce stresses at ,

fixed points in parallel runs of piping if the two runs are tied together by a stiff run (see Figure 5-2). This latter situation is typical of 12" recirculation system risers. The highest stressed point in a recircu2 .. system with several weld overlays is typically at recircu; lon riser to inlet nozzle connections. Weld overlay shrinkage in a vertical run of such a riser produces bending on the horizontal run leading to the inlet  ;

nozzle. This bending stress is typically highest at the nozzle-to-pipe or pipe-to-safe end weld.

Three aspects of the weld overlay application determine the magnitude of weld overlay shrinkage which will be produced. The first of these is the pipe size. Larger pipes (with correspondingly thicker walls) are stiffer and shrink less than do smaller lines. Typically the amount of shrinkage measured in 28" lines is roughly 1/4 to 1/5 of that produced on 12" pipe for the same weld overlay design. Consequently, shrinkage stresses SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 5-1 6 M

ASSOCIATESINC

J 1

I predicted in 28" pipe are also only a small fraction of the worst stresses predicted in 12" pipe.

The second factor which contributes to the magnitude of the '

observed weld overlay shrinkage is the length of the overlay.

For the same pipe size, a longer overlay will produce greater axial shrinkage and (depending on system geometry) larger stresses than would a shorter overlay.

The final factor which has an effect on the shrinkage is the ,

number of weld layers applied to produce a particular overlay thickness. Field. measurements suggest that the bulk of the shrinkage occurs as a result of application of the first two ,

welding layers. Subsequent layers have progressively less effect. This suggest that the magnitude of the shrinkage is related to the volume of metal cooling at any one time, compared to the amount (including original pipe wall) which has already solidified.

5.1.2 Effects of Weld Overlay Shrinkage In ASME Code terminology, the stresses produced by the shrinkage of weld overlays are secondary stresses. However, they are essentially constant with operating time, so there are no ,

official ASME Code limits on this stress component. Nonetheless, they could potentially increase the susceptability of unoverlayed welds to future IGSCC and decrease the effectiveness of stress remedies such as IHSI. Therefore, it-has become common p ctice to - evaluate these stresses in systems with relatively large numbers of overlays, to assure that they remain within reasonable bounds. This is done for flawed and unflawed weld locations as

  • discussed below.

SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 5-2 ASSOCIATESINC

O

  • Unflawed Locations At unflawed locations, the stress imposed by shrinkage will ,

combine with existing applied and residual stresses to determine susceptibility to crack initiation, e.g., by the IGSCC mechanism.

In the case of weld locations which havc not received residual stress mitigation (e.g., with IHSI) the pre-existing inside l surface tensile residual stresses may combine with the tensile component of stress due to shrinkage to make the location very >

susceptible to crack initiation. Even if the location has been ,

treated with IHSI, the superposition of the tensile stress due to shrinkage on the IHSI residual stress pattern will tend to reduce the effectiveness of IHSI in inhibiting crack initiation. The shrinkage stresses at such locations are tabulated and compared [

to the expected ID surface compressive stresses due to IHSI, to  ;

assess the potential effect of the overlay. on unflawed welds.

Flawed Locations '

At unoverlayed flawed weld locations, similar effects to those on unflawed locations will be experienced. The tensile stress superimposed on the location's stress field may make the location more prone to further crack initiation. In addition, the shrinkage stress may act in concert with applied and residual stresses to promote further crack propagation and to increase the rate of that growth. To evaluate this ef fect, stresses due to weld overlay shrinkage are added to applied and residual stresses in performing crack growth calculations to demonstrate ,

acceptability of an existing flaw without repair.

Such evaluations are not required for flawed location which have been weld overlay repaired, since it is generally believed that the residual stress benefits of the weld overlay will overwhelm the global shrinkago effects, and since the design basis for the overlay is a 360* through-wall crack in the original weldment and SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 5-3 ASSOCIATESINC

l the overlay itself is highly resistant to IGSCC, even in the presence of tensile stresses. l 1

5.2 Weld overlav Shrinkace In order to predict the magnitude of the stresses resulting from weld overlay shrinkage, it is necessary to measure or estimate the amount of shrinkage which occurred during the weld overlay application process. This was done manually at Hatch Unit 1.

First, the design length of each weld overlay was " laid out" or, the weld to be repaired. The centerline of the existing butt weld was determined, and the design length of the design overlay in each direction (upstream and downstream of the weld centerline) was marked on the pipe using punch marks at several azimuthal locations. An additional set of marks was placed approximately 1/2" to 1" beyond each end of the design overlay length, typically at 4 azimuthal locations separated by 9 0' .

This latter set of 8 punch markings (4 on each end of the overlay region) was used to determine shrinkage.

The distance between each azimuthal pair (upstream-downstream) of punch marks was measured using a vernier caliper (see Figure 5-3). The weld overlay was then applied between the inner set of markings, which define design length. Following the completion of overlay welding, the distance between the outside set of punch marks was again measured with vernier cC ipers. The difference '

between the before and after welding measurements for each azimuthal location was tabulated, and the four differences were averaged. The average values from these measurements for each overlay are tabulated as the weld overlay axial shrinkage in Table 5-1, and were used as input into the analysis discussed below to determine shrinkage-induced stress at all unoverlayed locations in the recirculation system.

ASSOCIATESINC

.i 5.3 Analysis of Weld overlav Shrinkaae Siresses 5.3.1 Background As pointed out earlier, the stresses produced by weld overlay shrinkage are not confined to the vicinity of the repair, but rather can affect remote locations. Consequently, it is necessary to consider the system as a whole, and to consider all ,

overlay repairs, in determining the stresses which will result from overlay shrinkage.

The analytical approach used in this evaluation includes preparation of a finite element model of the entire piping system. A typical model is shown in Figure 5-4. The actual weld overlay shrinkages measured at the repair sites are input at the nodes corresponding to repaired welds in the form of " cold elements", which simulate the mechanical shrinkage observed in the field through use of negative pseudo-thermal expansion.

Mechanical anchors and rigid restraints are built into the model, as appropriate for the piping support system, but no other loads are included.

(

After preparation of the above model, the stresses at all points ,

in the system are calculated elastically. Because the stress at welds is of concern to IGSCC (rather than within components), all stress indices are set equal to 1. 0. Also, in combining axial -

and bending stresses, absolute summation is used.

Typically, stresses calculated in the above manner for piping larger than 12" are rarely larger than 1 ksi. However, it is not

! unusual to see stresses in the 12" risers which are predicted to be in the vicinity of 15-20 ksi or larger. The highest stressed locations are almost always at the junction of riser to inlet nozzle and occasionally at the junction of riser to ring header.

SIR-90-039, Rev. 0 5-5 M ASSOCIATEINC

There are several conseivatisms in the above type of analysis.

First of all, since the stress is elastically calculated, j stresses may be overpredicted. Refining the approach to include i consideration of the true material stress-strain behavior would give more reasonable results. Secondly, nozzles are typically modeled as rigid and the flexibility of elbows and other ,

components may be underpredicted.

5.3.2 Modeling Details The A140R SUPERSAP finite element computer program (13) was used to calculate the piping stresses due to weld overlay shrinkage in the recirculation system. Figures 5-5 and 5-6 present the model y with element numbers and node nurbers. Since loop A and loop B of the recirculation system are mirror images of each other, the same model was applied to analyze the shrinkage effect for both loops.

The actual weld overlay shrinkages measured at the repair sites as summarized in Table 5-1, were input at the nodes corresponding to repair welds in the form of " cold elemento". This approach is used to simulate the mechanical shrinkage observed in the field through the use of negative pseudo-thermal expansion.

Temperature differences at the cold element were calculated as:  ;

0 AT = ,3 (1) where AT is the temperature difference from the reference temperature at the cold element, 6 is the as-built veld overlay shrinkage, a is the coefficient of thermal expansion, and L is the length of the weld overlay element.

I For boundary conditions, all nozzles are assumed to be rigidly anchored. Also, support is not included in the model at the l location of the recirculation pump.  ;

5.3.3 Results Resulting shrinkage stresses in the Hatch Unit I recirculation system welds are summarized in Tables 5-2 and 5-3. From these '

tables, it is seen that shrinkage stresses in the unrepaired welds are small in the 28-inch welds, (less than 2 ksi) .

Shrinkage stresses in the 22-inch ring header are also less than [

2 ksi. The highest shrinkage stress is in the riser welds. The highest stress is 13.26 kai in the 'c' riser and 12.12 ksi in the

'H' riser at the cross on the ring header. '

5.4 Evaluation of Shrinkace Stress Effects Because of the design basis assumption of a 360* through-wall flaw used for all overlay designs, as discussed in Section 4 of this report, the above shrinkage stresses will have no effect on the weld overlay designs. They are secor

  • cy stresses and thus the application of high toughness weld metal eliminates any low toughness concern which would require their inclusion in weld overlay design. Also because of the relatively small magnitude j of shrinkage stresses in all unoverlayed welds, and the application of IHSI at Hatch Unit 1, the effects of weld overlay shrinkage on uncracked welds are not considered significant. I There are three Category F welds in the recirculation system l (12AR-G-4, 12BR-A-4 and 12BR-E-4) which were found to have circumferential cracks in the 1985/86 outage. All three of these welds had stress improvement by IHSI in that outage. They were reinspected.in the current outage and found to contain no change in the indications observed in 1985/86.

' M ASSOCIATESINC

The total service stresses, including the revised shrinkage stresses in these three welds are listed in Table 5-4. Flaw evaluation for these three welds was redone to reflect the new shrinkage stress values, and is reported in Appendix c. This analysis uses the same methodology and criteria es was used in 1986 to evaluate the flaw indications, including taking credit for IHSI in the crack growth evaluation. The revised evaluation shows that the new shrinkage stresses do not alter the results of the evaluation. One other flawed weld (20B-D-4) located on the RHR suction was unaffected by the revised shrinkage atress analysis. The flaw evaluation for this weld is therefore the same as that performed during the 1985/86 outage (2).

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS Ultrasonic (UT) examinations performed at Hatch Unit i during the 1990' outage identified flaws judged to be -IGSCC in the vicinity ,

of sixteen piping welds. Of these sixteen flawed welds, twelve were on the 28-inch recirculation piping system, three were on the 12-inch risers and one was on the RHR system. IGSCC in nine of these flawed welds have been detected in previous outages and hence, seven new flawed welds were identified during the 1990 outage. All seven of the new flawed welds were located in the 28-inch recirculation piping.

The twelve 28-inch flawed welds were repaired using weld overlays -

leaving four unrepaired flawed welds at Hatch Unit 1. All the overlays were designed as standard overlays per the requirements of.NUREG-0313, Rev. 2. A comparison of the as-built and designed overlay dimensions indicates that all the as-built dimensions exceed the design dimensions. The addition of these twelve overlay repairs brings the total number of IGSCC-related overlays I at Hatch Unit 1 to 46 at the end of the 1990 outage. Two other overlays at Hatch Unit 1 are not IGSCC-related.

.UT examinations were also performed on pre-1990 overlays as well as the overlays applied during the 1990 outage. There was no evidence of cracks propagating into the overlays. Small indications identified in some of these overlays were mainly due to lack of fusion between weld beads during the repair process h and were not connected to the original design basis flaws. One weld overlay, containing weld related defects, had a

. metallurgical sample removed to confirm the size and distribution of these non-relevant d'fects.

e The remainder of these flaws were evaluated per the requirements of ASME Section XI and were found to be acceptable, indicating that all overlays at Hatch Unit 1 to

.be adequate.

SIR-90-030, Rev. 0 6-1 hs 6 i m- ,

[ .. ,

.The axial shrinkage resulting from the application of the weld-I

overlays during the 1990 outage was added to previously measured
  • I shrinkage from prior outages and the results were used to perform
a. shrinkage analysis of-the recirculation system. The shrinkage

, stresses obtained1 from this evaluation were -found to have increased only slightly from those calculated from previous R

analysis. The shrinkage stresses were added to other service stresses to perform a " flawed pipe" evaluation of the four unrepaired flawed welds at Hatch Unit 1. The evaluation showed

! that the service stresses at these flawed weld . locations are  ;

changed only slightly from the results reported earlier and hence no crack growth is predicted at these locations. These welds received induction heating stress improvement (IHSI) during the e 1985/86 outage and since then, the flaws have not shown any growth. These welds were therefore returned to service without any additional mitigation, t

'In summary, all flawed welds identified at Hatch Unit 1 have been evaluated by ASME Section XI and NUREG-0313, Rev. 2, and.

determined to be acceptable for long term, continued operation.

1. Weld overlay material is to be type 308L '

or equivalent, with as-deposited delta ferrite content greater than 7.5 FN.

2. Component surfa::e 's to be examined by dye penetrant method and accepted as clean prior to overlay application in order to ,

include the entire deposited overlay thickness in meeting the design thickness  ;

requirement, per NUREG-0313, Revision 2.

3. In the event that the original component surface does not pass the note 2 require-ments, the first deposited weld layer is to be examined by dye penetrant method and accepted as clean before '

proceeding with subsequent layers.

4. First weld layer is to have a measured
delta ferrite content greater than 7.5 FN.
5. Design thickness includes no allowance

.for surface conditioning operations to y facilitate UT inspections.

6. Design length is that required for i structural reinforcement; greater length L may be required for effective UT inspection.

This is to be determined in the field.
