Abstract Activities involving regulatory implementation of updated source term information were pursued. These activities include the identification of the source term, the' identification of the chemical form of iodine in the source term, and the timing of the source term's entrance into containment. These activities are intended to support a more realistic source term for licensing nuclear power plants than the current TID-14844 source term and current licensing assumptions. MELCOR -

calculations were performed to support the technical basis for the updated source term.

This report presents the results from three MELCOR calculations of nuclear power plant accident sequences and preses.ts comparisons with Source Term Code Package (STCP) calculations for the same sequences. The three low-pressure -

sequences were analyzed to identify the materials which enter containment (source terms) and are available for release to the environment, and to obtain timing of sequence everas. The source terms include fission products and other materials such as those generated by core-concrete interactions. All three calculations, for both MELCOR and STCP, analyzed the Surry plant, a pressurized water reactor (PWR) with a subatmospheric containment design.

These activities calculations) performed for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory include the identification of the source term, the Commission (NRC) by Sandia National Laboratories identification of the chemical form of iodine in the source (SNL). He purpose of the report is to compare the term, and the timing of the source term's entrance into results of three STCP analyses of Surry accident containment. These activities are intended to support a sequences carried out by Battelle Memorial Institute more realistic source term for licensing nuclear power (BMI) for the NUREG-1150 program with new analyses plants than the current TID-14844 source term and current of the same accident sequences using MELCOR.

Operated by Cooling System is a suite of systems designed to deliver the Virginia Electric Power Company, it is located on the coolant water to the reactor vessel in the event of a kmes River in southeastern Virginia, about 16 kilometers LOCA. The ECCS provides makeup water during small (10 miles) south of Williamsburg, Virginia.

pumps. These pumps serve as charging pumps under normal operative conditions. For larger breaks in the 2.1 Reactor and Primary System RCS, the Low Pressure Injection System (L.PIS) is available to provide high volume, low pressure coolant The nuclear reactor of Surry Unit 1 is a 2441 MWt flow to the RCS. Both the HPIS and the LPIS can pressurized water reactor (PWR) designed and built by function in a recirculation mode as well as in an injection Westinghouse. The Reactor Coolant System (RCS) is a mode. In the recirculation mode they take suction from three loop design, with a reactor coolant pump (RCP) and the containment sump. Surry also has three passive o U-tube steam generator (SG) in each loop. In addition, accumulators to provide immediate, high flow, low Loop C contains the primary system pressurizer. Under pressure injection to the RV in the case oflarge breaks in normal operating conditions, the RCS operates at ~ 15.5 the RCS.

Containment through the lower core support plate and entering the volume is 50,971 m' (1,800,000 ft'), and the design core. Moving upward through the core, the coolant flows pressure is 0.41 MPa (4.1 bar,45 psig. 59.7 psia). Due out the top and exits the RV via the outlet nozzles, to conservatisms in design and construction, most flowing through the hot legs into the steam generators estimates of the failure pressure are between two and again. The reactor core is made up of 32,028 Zirealoy-4 three times the design pressure.

The reason for their operation was RCS pressure to the containment pressure). The large e set of hydrogen deflagrations that occurred in the pressure spike at 700-750 min in the STCP result has only containment volumes, beginning at 849.3 min and a tiny counterpart in the MELCOR analysis. This continuing for 40 seconds, that drove the containment comparison between MELCOR and STCP predictions is pressure above the 0.172 MPa (1.72 bar,25 psia) spray very similar to the comparison for the S2D sequence initiation setpoint.

Results and Comparisons The same problem with ex vessel iodine release identified The released radionuclide distributions are also predicted in the AG and S2D sequences is found in the S3D to fall into a few subdivisions, generally different for the sequence results. Figures 5.4.25 and 5.4.26 show that S3D sequence than the patterns predicted for the AG and almost all of the Class I and Class 2 volatiles are released S2D sequences. All of the noble gases and iodine are from the fuel in the MELCOR calculation. For the S3D found in the containment by the end of the MELCOR sequence almost all that release occurs in-vessel, with simulation (as in the S2D simulation). Slightly more than s5% released ex-vessel in the cavity. Note that Figure half of the Cs and Ba released remain in the primary 5.4.28 shows a very similar release pattern for I in-vessel, system, and most (~75 %) of the Ru, Mo, Ce, U, Cd and but no additional release in the cavity. As discussed in Sn released remain in the primary system. Te and La are Sections 5.2.5 and 5.3.5, the

Cs. One would expect the Class 4 release to closely resemble the Class I and 2 results.

The total mass of fission products released from the fuel is shown in Figure 5.4.49.

Most of the total release Much larger in-vessel releases are predicted to occur occurs during in-vessel core damage and melt ejection.

during the S3D sequence than in the AG and S2D About 60% of the fission products released are found in sequences.

Assuming the correct iodine behavior, control volumes, in either atmosphere or pool, and about

~ 100% of the Class 1, Class 2 and (corrected) Class 4 70% of the fission products in the control volumes are radionuclide inventories are released, almost all in-vessel vapors rather than aerosols (mostly because aerosols settle (as in the AG and S2D sequences). The next major out and deposit onto heat structures more readily). There release fractions are of Cd and Sn, both with ~75%,

is significant (~40%) deposition of fission products onto much greater than found for the AG or S2D sequence, heat structures soon after release begins. The fractions of and almost all in-vessel, followed by Te (2:60%), about fission products in control volumes and on heat structures equally in-vessel and in the cavity, and Ba (s50%) and remains nearly constant through the latter portion of this Mo (s20%), both mostly in-vessel. (Note that all these

sequence, include only the release of radioactive forms of these classes, and not additional nonradioactive aerosols from stmetural materials.) Finally, a total s2% of the refractories (Ru, Ce, La and U) are released.

10. SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES
11. ABSTR ACT rJoo e,si or arur Activities involving regulatory implementation of updated source term information were pursued. These activities include the identification of the source term, the identification of the chemical form ofiodine in the source term, and the timing of the source term's entrance into containment. These activities are intended to support a more realistic source term for licensing nuclear power plants than the current TID-14844 source term and current licensing -

assumptions. MELCOR calculations were performed to support the technical basis for the updated source term.

~ This report presents the results from three MELCOR calculations of nuclear power plant accident sequences and presents comparisons with Source Term Code Package (STCP) calculations for the same sequences. The three low-pressure sequences were analyzed to identify the materials which enter containment (source terms) and are available for release to the environment, and to obtain timing of sequence events. The source terms include fission products and other materials such as those generated by core-concrete interactions. All three calculations, for both MELCOR l,

and STCP, analyzed the Surry plant, a pressurized water reactor (PWR) with a subatmospheric containment design;
