1. INTRODUCTION
O 1.1 General To address local wall thinning of the Oyster Creek drywell, GPUN has
o planned to prepare a supplementary report to the Code stress report of record [1 1). For convenience, the supplementary report is divided into two parts. Part 1 of the supplementary report [1-2) includes all

- of the Code stress analysis results other than the buckling capability

O for the drywell shell. This report addresses the buckling capability of the drywell shell shown in Figure 1-1 and constitutes the second part of the supplementary report. Buckling of the entire drywell shell is considered in this analysis with the sandbed region being the  !

'O area of primary concern.

1.2 Report Outline

O Section 2 of this report outlines the methodology used in the buckling capability evaluation. Finite element modeling, analysis and results are described in section 3. Evaluation of the allowable compressive buckling stresses and comparisons with the calculated compressive stresses for the limiting load combinations are covered in section 4.

"O Section 5 presents the summary of results and conclusions.

2. BUCKLING ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY D

2.1 Basic Approach The basic approach used in the buckling evaluation follows the D methodology outlined in the ASME Code Case N-284 [ Reference 2 1). Following the procedure of this Code Case, the allowable compressive stress is evaluated in three steps, a S in the first step, a theoretical clastic buckling stress, oje, is determined. This value may be calculated either by classical buckling equations or by finite element analysis. Since the drywell shell geometry is complex, a three dimensional finite element analysis 9 approach is followed using the eigenvalue extraction technique. More details on the eigenvalue determination are given in Section 3. In the second step, the theoretical clastic buckling s t 4'e s s is 4 modified by the appropriate capacity and plasticity reduction factors. The capacity reduction factor, oj, accounts for the difference between classical buckling theory and actual tested buckling stresses for fabricated shells. This difference is due to imperfections inherent d 9 in fabricated shells, not accounted for in classical buckling theory, which can cause significant reductions in the critical buckling stress. Thus, the elastic buckling stress for f abricated shells is given by the product of the theoretical clastic buckling stress and G the capacity reduction factor, i.e., oie 01 When the elastic buckling stress < xceeds the proportional limit of the material, a plasticity reduction factor, nj, is used to account for non linear material behavior. The inelastic buckling stress for fabricated shells is O given by njojoie' In the final step, the allowable compressive stress is obtained by dividing the buckling stress calculated in the second step by the S safety factor, FS: Allowable Compressive Stress njojojp/f 5 9 2-1 l

1 iO i b x k REV. O  ! In Reference 21, the safety factor for the Design and Level A & B

'O    service conditions is specified as 2.0.                    A safety f actor of 1.67 is specified for Level C service conditions (such as the post-accident                                   ,

flooded condition).

'O    The Determination of appropriate values for capacity and plasticity reduction factors is discussM next.

2.2 Determination of Capacity Reduction Factor

O lhe capacity reduction factor, og, is used to account for reductions in actual buckling strength due to the existence of geometric imperfections. The capacity reduction factors given in Reference 2-1 O are based on extensive data compiled by Miller (2-2]. The factors appropriate for a spherical shell geometry such as that of the drywell in the sandbed region, are shown in figure 21 (Figure 15121 of Reference 21). The tail (flat) end of the curves are used for

-O unstiffened shells. The curve marked ' Uniaxial compression' is applicable since the stress state in the sandbed region is compressive in the meridional direction but tensile in the circumferential direction. From this curve, og is determined to be 0.207.

O The preceding value of the capacity reduction factor is very conservative for two reasons. First, it is based on the assumption that the spherical shell has a uniform thickness equal to the reduced
0 thickness. However, the drywell shell has a greater thickness above the sandbed region which would reinforce the sandbed region. Second, it is assumed that the circumferential stress is zero, lhe tensile circumferential stress has the effect of rounding the shell and O reducing the effect of imperfections introduced during the fabrication and construction phase. A modification of the og value to account for the presence of tensile circumferential stress is discussed in Subsection 2.3.

O The capacity reduction factor values given in Reference 21 are applicable to shells which meet the tolerance requirements of NE-4220 0 2-2

O kt X k REV. O of Section 111 (2 3). Appendix A of Reference 2-4 compares the O tolerance requirements of NE-4220 to the requirements to which the Oyster Creek drywell shell was fabricated. The comparison shows '. hat the Oyster Creek drywell shell was erected to the tolerance requirements of NE-4220. Therefore, although the Oyster Creek drywell O is not a Section 111, NE vessel, it is justified to use the approach outlined in Code Case N 284. 2.3 Modification of Capacity Reduction Factor for Hoop Stress O The orthogonal tensile. Ltress has the effect of rounding fabricated shells and reducing tFe effect of imperfections on the buckling strength. The method Gescribed in Reference 2 5 was used to quantify O this effect. The buckling stress in uniaxial compression for a sphere of uniform thickness is given by the following: Se = (0.605)(0.207) Et/R O Where, 0.605 is a constant, 0.207 is the capacity reduction factor and E,t and R are Young's Modulus, wall thickness and radius, respectively. Reference 2 5 states that in the presence of a tensile O stress such as that produced by an internal pressure, p, the modified buckling stress is as follows: Sc , mod = [(0.605)(0.207) + AC) Et/R O Where AC is given in graphical form in Figure 2 2. As can be seen in Figure 2-2, AC is a function of the parameter X-(p/4E)(2R/t)2 When the tensile stress magnitude, S, is known,- the equivalent internal O pressure can be calculated using the expression: p- 2tS/R O The AC term is then incorporated in the capacity reduction factor itself by defining a mocified capacity reduction f actor, oi, mod; oi, mod = 0.207 + AC/0.605 O 1 2-3

 !O bX               REV. 0 2.4 Determination of Plasticity Reduction factor
0-When the elastic buckling stress exceeds the proportional limit of the material, a plasticity reduction factor, nj, is used to- account for the non-linear material behavior. The inelastic buckling stress for
O fabricated shells is given by njojoje.

3. FINITE ELEMENT MODEllNG AND ANALYSIS
O 3.1 Finite Element Buckling Analysis Methodology This evaluation of the Oyster Creek Drywell buckling capability uses 0 the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) program ANSYS [ Reference 31). The ANSYS program uses a two step eigenvalue formulation procedure to perform linear elastic buckling analysis. The first step is a static analysis of the structure with all anticipated loads applied. The O structural stiffness matrix, (K), the stress stiffness matrix, (S),

and the applied stresses, cap, are developed and saved from this static analysis. A buckling pass is then run to solve for the eigenvalue or load factor, A, for which elastic buckling is predicted O using the equation: ( (K) + A (S) ) (u) = 0 o where: 1 is the eigenvalue or load factor. (u) is the eigenvector representing the buckled shape of the structure.

.O             This load factor is a multiplier for the applied stress state at which the onset of elastic buckling will theoretically occur. All applied loads (pressures, forces, gravity, etc...) are scaled equally. For example, a load factor of 4 would indicate that the structure would O             buckle for a load condition four times that defined in the stress pass. The critical stress, a cr,                    at a certain location of the structure is thus calculated as:

l i o cr

  • A Cap O

l This theoretical clastic buckling stress is then modified by the l capacity and plasticity reduction factors to determine the predicted !O buckling stress of the fabricated structure as discussed in Section 2. This stress is further reduced by a factor of safety to determine the allowable compressive stress. O-3-1

Nb[x k REV. 0 3.2 Finite Element Model ) The Oyster Creek drywell has been previously analyzed using a simplified axisymmetric model to evaluate the buckling capability in the sandbed region (Reference 3 2). This type of analysis > conservatively neglects the vents and reinforcements around the vents which significantly increase the stiffness of the shell near the sandbed region. In order to more accurately determine the buckling capability of the drywell, a three dimensional finite element model is > developed. The geometry of the Oyster Creek drywell is shown in Figure 3-1. Taking advantage of symmetry of the drywell with 10 vents, a 36' > section is modeled. Figure 3 2 illustrates the finite element model of the drywell. This model includes the drywell shell from the base of the sandbed region to the top of the elliptical head and the vent and vent header. The torus is not included in this model because the > bellows provide a very flexible connection which does not allow significant structural interaction between the drywell and torus. Figure 3-3 shows a more detailed view of the lower section of the

>     drywell model.       The various colors on Figures 3-2 and 3-3 represent the different shell thicknesses of the drywell and vent.                   Nominal or as-designed thicknesses, summarized in Table 31, are used for the drywell shell for all regions other than the sandbed region.                       The
>      sandbed region shown in blue in Figure 3-3 is considered to have a thickness of 0.700 inch. This is less than the 95% confidence projected thickness for outage 14R. Figure 3 4 shows the view from the inside of the drywell with the gussets and the vent jet deflector.

The drywell and vent shell is modeled using the 3 dimensional plastic quadrilateral shell (STIF43) element. Although this element has plastic capabilities, this analysis is conducted using only clastic

 >      behavior. This element type was chosen over the elastic quadrilateral shell (STlF63) element because it is better suited for modeling curved surfaces.

32

kt X W REV. O At a dista?ce of 76 inches from the drywell shell, the vent is ) simplified using beam elements. The transition from shell to beam elements is made by extending rigid beam elements from a node along the centerlin of the vent radially outward to each of the shell nodes of the vent. ANSYS STIF4 beam elements are then connected to this a centerline nede to model the axial and bending stiffness of the vent and header. Spring (STIF14) elements are used to model the vertical neader supports inside the torus. ANSYS STIF4 beam elements are also used to model the stiffeners in the cylindrical region of the upper e drywell. The section properties of these stiffeners are summarized in Table 3-2. The sandbed region at the base of the drywell was designed to provide . 1 p a smooth transition to reduce thermal and mechanical discontinuities. The sand provides lateral support to the drywell sphere in this region. The foundation stiffnass for the sandbed is considered to be 366 psi /in per Reference 2.4.10 of Reference 3-2. ANSYS STlf14 spring g elements are extended radially outward from each node of the shell in the sandbed region to model the sand support as shown in figure 3-3. The stiffness for each of these sand spring elements is calculated by multiplying the foundation stiffness of the sand by the contributory D area of each node in the sandbed region. 3.3 Drywell Materials 3 The drywell shell is fabricated from SA-2128 fBX steel. The mechanical properties for this material at room temperature are shown in Table 3-3, These are the properties used in the finite element analysis. For the perforated vent jet deflector, the material D. properties were modified to account for the reduction in stiffness due to the perforations. 3.4 Boundary Conditions D Symmetric boundary conditions are defined for both edges of the 36' drywell model for the static stress analysis as shown on figure 3-5. This allows the nodes at this boundary to expand radially outward from 9 3-3

kibX REV. O the drywell centerline and vertically, but not in the circumferential > direction. Rotations are also fixed in two directions to prevent the boundary from rotating out of the plane of symmetry. Nodes at the bottom edge of the drywell are fixed in all directions to simulate the fixity of the shell within the concrete foundation. Nodes at the ends p of the sand spring elen,ents and the header support spring elements are also fixed. 3.5 Loads D The loads are applied to the drywell finite element model in the manner which most accurately represents the actual loads anticipated on the drywell. Details on the application of loads are discussed in p the following paragraphs. , 3.5.1 Load Combinations y All load combinations to be considered on the drywell are summarized on Table 3-4. The most limiting load combinations in terms of possible buckling are those which cause the most compressive stresses in the sandbed region. Many of the design basis load combinations p include high internal pressures which would create tensile stresses in the shell and help prevent buckling. The most severe design load combination ider,tified for the buckling analysis of the drywell is the refueling condition (Case IV). This load combination consists of the y following loads: Dead weight of vessel, penetrations, compressible material, equipment supports and welding pads. p Live loads of welding pads and equipment door Weight of refueling water External Pressure of 2 psig Seismic inertia and deflection loads for unflooded condition The normal operation condition with seismic is very similar to this condition, however, it will be less severe due to the absence of the refueling water and equipment door weight.

O method is used to apply the additional masses to the model for the O post-accident, flooded case as summarized in Table 3-7. 3.5.3 Pressure Loads O The 2 psi external pressure load for the refueling case is applied to the external faces of all of the drywell and vent shell elements. The compressive axial stress at the transition from vent shell to beam elements is simulated by applying equivalent axial forces to the nodes O of the shell elements. Considering the post-accident, flooded case, the drywell is assumed to be flooded to elevation 74'-6" (894 inches). Using a water density of 62.3 lb/ft3 (0.0361 lb/in ), the pressure gradient versus elevation is 3 O calculated as shown in Table 3-8. The hydrostatic pressure at the bottom of the sandbed region is calculated to be 28.3 psi. According to the elevation of the element centerline, the appropriate pressures O are applied t the inside surf ace of the shell elements. 3.5.4 Seismic Loads O Seismic stresses have been calculated for the Oyster Creek Drywell in Part 1 of this report, Reference 3-3. Meridional stresses are imposed on the drywell during a seismic ever t due to a 0.058" deflection of the reactor building and due to horizontal and vertical inertial loads O on the drywell. The meridional stresses due to a seismic event aie impnsed on the 3-0 drywell model by applying downward forces at four elevations of the O model (A: 23'-7",B: 37'-3",C: 50'-11" and 0: 88'-9") as shown on Figure 3 6. Using this method, the meridional stresses calculated in Reference 3-3 are duplicated at four sections of the drywell including

1) the mid-elevation of the sandbed region, 2) 17.25' below the O equator, 3) 5.75' above the equator and 4) just above the knuckle region. These four sections were chosen to most accurately represent the load distribution in the lower drywell while also providing a reasonably accurate stress distribution in the upper drywell.

O To find the correct loads to match the seismic stresses, the total ) seismic stress (due to reactor building deflection and horizontal and vertical inertia) are obtained from Reference 3 3 at the four sections of interest. The four sections and the corresponding meridional stresses for the refueling (unflooded) and post-accident (flooded) )- seismic cases are summarized in Table 3-9. Unit loads are then applied to the 3-D model in separate load sf eps at each elevatic, shown in Figure 3-6. The resulting stresses at the ) four sections of interest are then averaged for each of the applied unit loads. By solving four equations with four unknowr.s, the correct loads are determined to match the stresses shown in Table 3-9 at the four sections. The calculation for the correct loads are shown on ) Tables 3-10 and 3 11 for the refueling and post-accident cases, respectively. 3.6 Stress Results ) The resulting stresses for the two load combinations described in section 3.5 are summarized in this section. ) 3.6.1 Refueling Condition Stress Results The resulting stress distributions for the refueling condition are shown in Figures 3-7 through 3-10.

O bX REV. O 3.7 Theoretical Elastic Buckling Stress Results O After completion of the stress runs for the Refueling and Post-Accident load combinations, the eigenvalue buckling runs are made as described in Section 3.1. This analysis determines the theoretical O elastic buckling loads and buckling mode shapes. 3.7.1 Refueling Condition Buckling Results O As shown on Figure 3-15, it is possible for the drywell to buck 7 in two different modes. In the case of symmetric buckling shown on Figure 3-15, each edge of the 36' drywell model experiences radial displacement with no rotation. This mode is simulated by applying O symmetry boundary conditions to the 3 D model the same as used for the stress run. Using these boundary conditions for the refueling case, the critical load factor was found to be 14.32 with the critical buckling occurring in the sandbed region. The critical buckling mode O shape is shown in Figure 3-16 for applied symmetry boundary conditions. The red color indicates sections of the shell which displace radially outward and the blue, those areas which displace inward.

 .O The first four buckling modes were solved for in this eigenvalue buckling analysis with no buckling modes found outside the sandbed region for a load factor as high as 16.32. Therefore, buckling is not O  a concern outside of the sandbed region.

It is also possible for the drywell to buckle in the anti-symmetric manner shown in Figure 3-15. For this mode, the edges of the 3-D O model are allowed te rotate but are restrained from expanding radially. This case is considered by applying anti symmetric boundary conditions at the edges of the 3-D model. With the two pass approach used by ANSYS, it is possible to study anti-symmetric buckling of the 10 drywell when the stresses are found based on symmetry boundary conditions. The resulting load factor found using anti-symmetric boundary conditions is 16.81. The mode shape for this case is shown on Figure 3 17. O 3-9

) fbEX 0 h REV. O Because the load factor is lower for symmetry boundary conditions D with the same applied stress, the symmetric buckling condition is more limiting. Multiplying the load factor of 14.32 by the average meridional stress from section 3.6.1, the theoretical elastic buckling stress is found to be; D oRie = 14.32 x (7097 psi) = 101,650 psi 3.7.2 Post-Accident Condition Buckling Results 5 Considering the post-accident case with symmetry boundary conditions, the load factor was calculated as 9.91. Multiplying this load factor by the applied stress from section 3.6.2 results in a theoretical D elastic buckling stress of U PAie - 9.91 x (9693 psi) = 96,060 psi D The critical mode shape for this condition is shown in Figure 3-18. Again, the critical buckling mode is in the sandbed region. 3.8 References D 3-1 DeSalvo, G.J., Ph.D, and P,cman, R.W., "ANSYS Engineering Analys.s System User's Manual, Re,'sion 4.4," Swanson Analysis Systems, Inc., May 1, 1989.

4. ALLOWABLE BUCKLif4G STRESS EVALVAT10t4 h

Applying the methodology described in Section 2 for the modification of the theoretical elastic buckling stress, the allowable compressive stresses are now calculated. Tables 4-1 and 42 summarize the p calculation of the allowable buckling stresses for the Refueling and Post Accident conditions, respectively. The modified capacity reduction f actors are first calculated as described in sections 2.2 and 2.3. After reducing the theoretical instability stress by this e reduction factor, the plasticity reduction factor is calculated and applied. The resulting inelastic buckling stresses are then divided by the factor of safety of 2.0 for the Refueling case and 1.67 for the Post Accident case to obtain the final allowable compressive stresses. D The allowable compressive stress for the Refueling case is 10.44 ksi. Since the applied compressive stress is 7.10 ksi, there is a 47% margin. The allowable compressive stress for the Post Accident,  % e flooded case is 14.34 ksi. This results in a margin of 48% for the applied compressive stress of 9.69 ksi. D D D 3

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS 3 The results of this buckling analysis for the refueling and post-accident load combinations are summarized on Table 51. The applied and allowable compressive meridional streT.s shown in Table 5-1 are

  1. for the sandbed region which is the most 1'miting region in terms of buckling. This analysis demonstrates that ,he Oyster Creek drywell has adequate margin against buckling for an assumed sandbed shell thickness of 0.700 inch. This thickness is less than the 95%

D confidence projected thickness of 0.736 inches for the 14R outage. D D D D D D D 5-1
