~N ABSTRACT The primary containment for the Hope Creek Generating Station .

was designed, erected, pressure-tested, and N-stamped in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section III, 1974 Edition with addenda up to and including Winter 1974. These activities were performed for the Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) by the Pittsburgh Des Moines Cteel Company. Since then, new requirements which affect the design and operation of the primary containment system have been established. These requirements are defined in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) Safety Evaluation Report, NUREG-0661. The NUREG-0661 requirements define revised contain-ment design loads postulated to occur during a loss-of-coolant accident or a safety-relief valve discharge event which are to be evaluated. In addition, NUREG-0661 requires that an assess-ment of the effects that these postulated events have on the operation of the containment system be performed.

n d This plant unique analysis report (PUAR) documents the efforts undertaken to address and resolve each of the applicable NUREG-0661 requirements for Hope Creek. It de.nons t ra tes , in accordance with NUREG-0661 acceptance criteria, that the design of the primary containment system is adequate and that original design safety margins have been restored. The Hope Creek PUAR is composed of the following six volumes:

o Volume 1 -

GENERAL CRITERIA AND LOADS METHODOLOGY l

o Volume 2 -

SUPPRESSION CHAMBER ANALYSIS I

o Volume 3 -

VENT SYSTEM ANALYSIS o Volume 4 -

INTERNAL STRUCTURES ANALYSIS o Volume 5 -

SAFETY RELIEF VALVE DISCHARGE PIPING ANALYSIS o Volume 6 -

Major portions of all volumes of this report have been prepared by NUTECH Engineers, Incorporated ( NU'f EC H ) , acting as a consultant responsible to the Public Service Electric and Gas Company. Selected sections of Volumes 5 and 6 have been prepared by the Bechtel Power Corporation (acting as an agent responsible to the Public Service Electric and Gas Company).

This volume, Volume 1, provides introductory and background information regarding the reevaluation of the primary contain-ment system including torus attached piping. It includes a description of the Hope Creek containment system, a description of the structural and mechanical acceptance criteria, and the hydrodynamic loads methodology used in the analyses presented in Volumes 2 through 6.

NOTE: Identification of the volume number precedes each page, section, subsection, table, and figure number.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

(d \

The primary containment for the Hope Creek Generating Station was designed, erected, pressure-tested, and N-stamped in accordance with the ASME Code,Section III, 1974 Edition with addenda up to and including Winter 1974. During the course of this effort, large-scale testing for the Mark III containment system and in-plant testing for Mark I primary containment systems were being performed in which new suppression chamber hydrodynamic loads were identified. The new loads are related to the postulated loss-of-coolant aacident (LOCA) and c safety relief valve (SRV) actuttion.

G' The evaluation of the effects of these new loads were identified by the NRC as a generic open item for utilities with Mark I containments. To deter-mine the magnitude, time characteristics, etc., of the dynamic loads in a timely manner and to identify courses of action needed to resolve any outstanding safety concerns, the utilities with Mark I contain-ments formed the Mark I Owners Group. The Mark I-Owners Group established a two-part program consisting of: (1) a short-term program (STP) which was completed in 1976, and (2) a long-term program

,m I,

)

BPC-01-300-1 1-1.1 Revision 0 nutggb

(LTP). The LTP was completed with the submittal of the " Mark I Containment Program Load Definition Report" (LDR) (Referenca 1), the " Mark I Containment Program Structural Acceptance Criteria Plant Unique Analysis Application Guide" (PUAAG) (Reference 2),

and supporting reports documenting experimental and analytical tasks of the long-term program. The NRC reviewed the LTP generic documents and issued acceptance criteria to be used during the implemen-tation of the Mark I plant unique analyses. The NRC acceptance criteria are described in Appendix A of NUREG-0661 (Reference 3).

The objective of the LTP was to establish final design loads and load combinations and to verify that the existing or modified containment and related structures are capable of withstanding these loads with acceptable design margins. However, the original LTP completion schedule was not compatible with the construction schedu.1e for Hope Creek. To comply with the objectives of the LTP and to meet the plant construction schedule, PSE&G committed to a containment evaluatio- program that provided design, analysis, and construction before the final loads and load combinations were determined by the Mark I Owners Group.

BPC-01-300-1 1-1.2 Revision 0 nutggh

M I

X-b V Accordingly, the des ig n basis for the Hope Creek containment was revised in 1977 to include the newly defined suppression pool hydrodynamic loads. As the LTP loads had not yet been finalized, the character-istics of the hyd rodyn amic loads added to the containment des ign basis were established using ava ilable generic documents, with the objective of developing conservative des ig n loads which would ,

allow early plant construc tion with a high probability of bounding the final loads. These loadings and the resulting containme nt desig n are documented in the plant's Final Safety Analysis Repo rt (FSAR) (Reference 4).

\

. Examination of the containment geometry described in

, the Hope Creek FSAR reveals that the hyd rodyn anic loads added to the de s ig n basis resulted in a substantial containme n t desig n upg rade as compared to earlier Mark I containment designs. Examples of the de sig n changes made include the use of a 1" thick torus shell, additional midbay ring beams and toru s supports, use of a 9/16" thick vent header, additional vent system supports, downcomer bracing, and many others. As a result, the final LTP loads defined in NUREG-0661 have resulted in fewer, less (a)

extensive containme n t modifications for Hope Creek. A summary of the containment modifications developed to address the NUREG-0661 requirements is provided in Table 1-1. 0 -1. The containment geometry is discussed in Section 1-2.1. The installation of these modifications and the associated engineering evaluations wi11 be completed before fue1 load.

The FSAR for Hope Creek up to and including Amendme nt 2 was submitted to the NRC for review by the Public Service Electric and Gas Company in October of 1983. A summa ry of ong oing eftorts to address and resolve the NUREG-0661 requirements which affect the Hope Creek containment is included in Appendix 3b of the FSAR.

Some requirements of NUR EG-0 6 61, such as the installation of a suppression pool temperature monitoring systen are addressed in Section 6.2.1.1.10 of Amendment 1 of the FSAR.

% . 1-1.1 Containment System General Description

\

'd The Ma rk I containme nt is a pressure suppression system which houses the Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) pressure vessel, the reactor coolant recirculation loops, and other Dranch connections of the Nuclear Steam Supply Sy s t em . The containme nt system

. consists of a drywell, a pressure suppression chamber (we twe11 or torus) approximately half-filled with water, and a vent system connecting the drywell to the suppression cham be r. The toroidal shaped suppression chamber is located below and encircles the d rywe ll . The d rywe ll-to-we twe ll main vents (vent lines, vent pipes) are connected to a vent C/ header (ring header) contained within the airspace of the wetwell. Downcomers project from the vent header and terminate below the wa ter surf ace of the suppression pool. The suppression chamber, vent l - system, and related internal st ruc tur es are j described in greater detail in Sections 1-2.1.1 thru l

which is routed to the suppression pool. T-quencher discharge devices are attached to the end of each SRV discharge line. The SRV discharge lines are described in detail in Section 1-2.1.4 and in Volume 5.

Mark I containment systems utilize various process piping systems (TAP) attached to the suppression chamber. These piping systems include both large (LBP) and small bore (SBP) lines which perform both essential and non-essential containment functions.

Small bore piping systems are attached directly to the suppression chamber or to large bore piping systems. The torus-attached piping systems are described in Section 1-2.1.5 and in Volume 6.

1-1.2.1 LOCA-Related Phenomena Immediately following a postulated design basis accident (DBA) LOCA, the pressure and temperature of the drywell and vent system atmosphere rapidly increase. With the drywell pressure increase, the water initially present in the downcomers is accelerated into the suppression pool until the water is cleared from the downcomers. Following downcomer water clearing, the downcomer air, which is essentially at drywell pressure, is exposed to the relatively low pressure in the wetwell, producing a downward reaction force on the torus.

The consequent bubble expansion causes the pool water to swell in the torus (pool swell),

compressing the airspace above the pool. This airspace compression results in an upward reaction force on the torus. Eventually, the bubbles " break through" to the torus airspace, equalizing the pressures. An air-water froth mixture continues upward due to the momentum previously imparted to the water, causing impingement loads on elevated structures. The transient associated with this rapid drywell air venting to the suppression pool typically lasts for 3 to 5 seconds.

BPC-01-300-1 1-1.10 Revision 0 nutp_qh

s Following air carryover, there is a period of high

. i d steam flow through the vent system. The discharge of steam into the pool and its subsequent conden-sation causes pool pressure oscillations which are transmitted to submerged structures and the torus shell. This phenomenon is referred to as conden-sation oscillation (CO). As the reactor vessel depressurizes, the steam flowrate to the vent system decreases. Steam condensation during this period of reduced steam flow is characterized by up-and-down movement of the water-steam interface within the downcomer as the steam volumes are condensed and replaced by surrounding pool water. This phenomenon is referred to as chugging.

t b

Postulated intermediate break accident (IBA) and small' break accident (SBA) LOCA's produce drywell pressure transients which are sufficiently slow that the dynamic ef fects of vent clearing and pool swell are negligible. However, CO and chugging occur for >

1-1.2.2 SRV Discharge Phenomena Hope Creek is equipped with 14 SRV's to control primary system pressure during transient conditions.

The SRV's are mounted on the main steam lines inside the drywell, with the discharge piping routed down the main vents into the suppression pool. When a SRV is actuated steam is released from the primary system and discharges into the suppression pool where it is condensed.

Prior to the initial actuation of a SRV, the SRV piping contains air at atmospheric pressure and suppression pool water in the submerged portion of the piping. Following SRV actuation, steam enters the SRV piping and compresses the air within the line expelling the water slug into the suppression pool. During water clearing, the SRV piping undergoes a transient pressure loading.

l Once the water has been cleared from the T-quencher discharge device, the compressed air enters the pool as high pressure bubbles. These bubbles expand, resulting in an outward acceleration of the surrounding pool water. The momentum of the accel-erated water results in an overexpansion of the BPC-01-300-1 1-1.12 Revision 0 nut _ec_h.

3 bubbles, causing the bubble pressure to become i N/ negative relative to the ambient pressure of the surrounding pool. This negative bubble pressure ,

slows and reverses the motion of the water, leading

, to a compression of the bubbles and a positive

pressure relative to that of the pool. The bubbles continue to oscillate in this manner as they rise to the pool surface. The positive and negative pres-sures developed due to this phenomenon attenuate with distance and result in an oscillatory pressure loading on the " wetted" portion of the torus shell and submerged structures.

1-1.4 Evaluation Philosophy The development of event sequences, basic assumptions, load definitions, analysis techniques, and all the other aspects of the Hope Creek plant unique analysis are specifically formulated to provide a conservative evaluation. This section describes, in qualitative terms, some of the conservative elements inherent in the Hope Creek plant unique analysis.

Event Sequences and Assumptions Implicit in the analysis of a LOCA is the assumption that the event will occur, although the probability of such pipe breaks is low. No credit is taken for detection of leaks to prevent loss-of-coolant accidents. Furthermore, various sizes of pipe breaks are evaluated to consider various effects.

The large, instantaneous pipe breaks are considered to evaluate the i r. i t ia l , rapidly occurring events such as vent system pressurization and pool swell.

Smaller pipe breaks are analyzed to maximize prolonged effects such as CO and chugging.

BPC-01-300-1 1-1.16 l Revision 0 nut E h-

The various LOCA's analyzed are assumed to occur

)

/ coincident with plant conditions which maximize the parameter of interest. For example, the reactor is assumed to be at 102% of rated power; a single failure is assumed; and no - credit is taken for normal auxiliary power. Operator action which can mitigate effects of a LOCA is assumed to be unavailable for a specified period. Other assump-tions are also selected to maximize the particular parameter to be evaluated. This approach results in a conservative evaluation since the plant conditions are not likely to be in this worst case situation if a LOCA were to occur.

. . b)

Test Results and Load Definitions The load definitions utilized in the Hope Creek plant unique analysis (PUA) are based on conserva-tive test results and analyses. For example, the LOCA steam condensation loads (CO and chugging) are based on tests in the Mark I Full-Scale Test i

Facility (FCTF). The FSTF is a full-size 1/16 i

segment of a Mark I torus. To ensure that conservative results would be obtained on a generic basis, the FSTF was specifically designed and constructed to promote rapid air and steam flow from

[m BPC-01-300-1 1-1.17 Revision 0 nutggb

the drywell to the wetwell. While this maximizes hydrodynamic loads, it does not take into account the features of actual plants which would mitigate the LOCA effects. Actual Mark I drywells have piping and equipment which would absorb some of the energy released during a loss-of-coolant accident.

There are other features of the FSTF which are not typical of actual plant configurations, yet contribute to more conservative load definitions.

Pre-heating of the drywell to minimize condensation and heat losses is an example of this feature.

Additionally, the load definitions developed from FSTF data apply the maximum observed load over the entire period during which the load may occur. This conservative treatment takes no credit for the load variation observed in the tests.

The LOCA pool swell loads were developed from similarly conservative tests at the Ouarter-Scale Test Facility (OSTF). These tests were performed with the driving medium consisting of 100%

noncondensables. This maximizes pool swell because this phenomenon would be driven by condensable steam if a LOCA were to occur in an actual plant. The OSTF tests also minimized the loss coefficient and maximized the drywell pressurization rate, thus BPC-01-300-1 1-1.18 Revision 0 nutgqh

maximizing the pool swell loads. The drywell pressurization rate used in the tests was calculated using conservative analytical modeling and initial conditions. Structures above the pool are assumed to be rigid when analyzed for pool ssell impact and drag loads. This assumption maximizes loads and is also used to evaluate loads on submerged structures.

The methodology used to develop SRV loads are based ca conservative assumptions, modeling techniques, and full and subscale test data. Safety relief valve loads aie calculated using a minimum or manufacturer-specified SRV opening time, a maximum m steam flow rate, and a maximum steam line pressure.

(

_/ Appropriate assumptions are also applied to conservatively predict SRV load frequency ranges.

The SRV loads on submerged structures are similarly determined with additional assumptions that maximize the pressure differential across the structure due to bubble pressure phasing. The conservatism in the SRV load definition approach has been demonstrated by in-plant tests performed at several other plants.

All such tests have confirmed that actual plant responses are significantly less than predicted.

The Hope Creek in-plant SRV tests are expected to confirm similar conservatisms.

1,oad Combinations Conservative assumptions have also been made in developing the combinations of loading phenomena to be evaluated. Many combinations of loading phenomena are investigated althnugh it is very unlikely for such combinations of phenomena to occur. For example, mechanistic analysis has shown that a SRV cannot actuate during the pool swell phase of a design basis loss-of-coolant accident.

However, that combination of loading phenomena is evaluated. Both the pool swell and SRV load pheno-mena involve pressurized air bubbles in the pool and the structural response to these two different bubbles is assumed to be additive, either by absolute sum or by the square root of the sum of the squares (SRSS) method. However, this is a very conservative assumption since two oscillatory, bubbles from independent events cannot physically combine to form one bubble at a pressure higher than the individual bubbles. This rationale is also valid for other hydrodynamic phenomena in the pool such as Co and chugging, which are also combined with SRV discharge effects.

RPC-01-300-1 1-1.20 Revision 0 nutp_qh

When evaluating the structural response to combina-tions of loading phenomena, the peak responses due to the various loading phenomena are assumed to occur at the same time. While this is not an impossible occurrence, the probability that the actual responses will combine in that fashion is very remote. Furthermore, the initiating events themselves (e.g., LOCA or safe shutdown earthquake) are of extremely low probability.

Analysis Techniques The methodology used for analyzing LOCA and SRV q loads also contributes to conservatism. These loads are assumed to be smooth curves of regular or periodic shape. This simplifies load definitions and analyses, but maximizes predicted responses.

Data from full scale tests show actual forcing l functions to be much less " pure" or " perfect" than those assumed for analysis.

l The analyses generally treat a nonlinear problem as a linear, elastic problem with the load " tuned" to l the structural frequencies which produce maximum I

response. The nonlinearities which exist in both the pool and structural dynamics would preclude the U BPC-01-300-1

! 1-1.21 Revision 0 I

attainment of the elastic transient and steady-state responses that are predicted mathematically.

Inherent in the st ruc tural analyses are additional conservatisms. Damping is assumed to be low to maximize re spo nse , but in reality, damping is likely to be much higher. Conse rva t ive reductions in material thicknesses are made during containme nt stress calculations to account for corrosion.

Allowable stress leve ls are low compared to the expected material capabilities. Conse rv a t ive boundary conditions are also used in the analyses.

Conclusion The loads, methods, and resul ts described above and O

elsewhere in this report demonstrate that the ma rgi ns of safety which actually existed for the original de s ig n loads have not only been restored, but have, in some cases, been increased. The advancements in unders ta nd ing the hydrodynamic phenomena and in the s t ruc tural analyses and modeling techniques have substantially' increased since the orig i nal de sig n and analysis were completed. This increased understanding and analysis capability is applied to the original loads B PC-01-3 0 0 -1 1-1.22 Revision 0 nut M h.

  1. i j by eight vent lines. The vent lines are connected to a common header within the suppression chamber. )

Eighty downcomers are connected to the vent header which terminate below the normal water level of the suppression pool. A bellows assembly at each vent line suppression chamber penetration permits differential expansion between the drywell and the suppression chamber to occur. The general arrange-ment of the vent system is shown in Figures 1-2.1-3 through 1-2.1-7.

The vent lines have a 6'-2" inside diameter with a h nominal 9/16" wall thickness. The upper ends of the vent lines include a locally thickened conical transition segment at the penetration to the dry-well. Inside the suppression chamber, the nominal thickness of the vent line is increased to 1-1/2",

and is further increased to 2" near the vent header junction. The end of the cylindrical vent line in the suppression chamber is capped with a 3" thick plate, which is penetrated by a 24" diameter drywell/wetwell vacuum breaker support pipe. There BPC-01-300-1 1-2.6 Revision 0 nutp_qh

are 24" GPE vacuum breakers located on each of the eight vent lines, as shown in Figure 1-2.1-3.

The vent header inside the suppression chamber has a 4'-3" inside diameter, and a 9/16" nominal wall thickness. The downcomers have a 2'-0" outside diameter and a 3/8" nominal wall thickness. A longitudinal bracing system stiffens the downcomer intersections in a direction parallel to the vent

, header. Additional stiffening is provided in the i

plane of the downcomers by crotch plates between the downcomers and by outer gusset plates as shown in Figure 1-2.1-7.

The location of the catwalk relative to other major components within the suppression chamber is shown in Figures 1-2.1-3 through 1-2.1-5. The catwalk is located parallel to the longitudiani centerline of each suppression chamber mitered cylinder. The catwalk is supported by hangers at the mitered joint ring beam and at two locations between each mitered joint.

The location of the monorail relative to the other major components within the suppression chamber is shown in Figures 1-2.1-3 through 1-2.1-5. The monorail forms a complete circle around the inside of the suppression chamber. The monorail supports l consist of plates and angles providing vertical and horizontal support.

1-2.1.4 SRV Discharge Piping (d )

The SRV piping inside the drywell and the suppres-sion chamber consists of fourteen 10 inch diameter Scheduie 80 discharge lines. These discharge lines enter the suppression chamber from the interior of the vent line through a reinforced penetration in the vent line as shown in Figure 1-2.1-3. From the vent line, the piping runs horizontally to the suppression chamber mitered joint, parallel to the vent header. The piping then turns and runs diagonally to a point below the vent header directly above bottom dead center of the mitered joint ring beam, and then runs vertically down into the p

( suppression pool.

Standard Mark I T-quenchers, developed by General Electric, are located at the mitered joints, with the quencher arms located in the plane of the vertical centerline of the suppression chamber as shown in Figure 1-2.1-6. Each T-quencher is supported by a quencher support pipe which is attached to three adjacent ring girders.

The SRV piping in the drywell is supported by hangers, struts, and snubbers connected to the back-up steel structures. Supports for the SRV piping are provided by a frame type support assembly inside the vent line, and by struts attached to the mitered joint ring beam and vent header inside the suppression chamber.

1-2.1.5 Torus Attached Piping and Penetrations

)

The large bore TAP systems consist of 4" and larger nominal diameter piping, which penetrate or are directly attached to the suppression chamber. Large bore TAP lines range in size from 4" to 24" nominal diameter and have varying schedules.

Large bore TAP may be grouped into two general categories: (1) torus external piping, and (2) torus internal piping. Examples of systems with only torus external piping are the residual heat removal (RHR) pump suction lines and the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) suction lines. Typical systems having both torus external and internal piping are the high pressure coolant injection (HPCI) turbine exhaust line and the residual heat removal (RHR) discharge lines. Typical internal

, large bore TAP systems are shown in Figures 1-2.1-3 through 1-2.1-5.

The small bore TAP for Hope Creek consists of piping with a nominal diameter of less than 4", which is attached to the suppression chamber or to the large bore torus attached piping.

i BPC-01-300-1 1-2.11 Revision 0 nutggb

The small bore piping (SBP) lines may be grouped into the following system types:

(1) Cantilevered Drains and Vents (2) Torus Attached SBP lines (3) SBP lines attached to large bore TAP lines 1 The TAP systems penetrate the suppression chamber at many locations. The principal components of the penetrations are the nozzles, the insert plates, and the nozzle reinforcements. The nozzle extends from the outer circumferential pipe weld through the insert plate to the inner circumferential pipe weld or flange. The insert plate provides local reinforcement cf the suppression chamber shell adjacent to the penetration.

1-3.0 PLANT UNIOUE ANALYSIS CRITERIA

\

This section describes the acceptance criteria used in the Hope Creek plant unique analysis for '

hydrodynamic loads development and structural  !

evaluations.

4 The acceptance criteria used in the PUA are a result of the NRC review of the long-term program LDR, the PUAAG, and the supporting analytical and experi-mental programs conducted by the Mark I owners Group. These criteria are documented in NUREG-0661 for both hydrodynamic load definitions and struc-l tural applications. Sections 1 and 2 of NUREG-0661 d provide an introduction and background information; Section 3 presents a detailed discussion of the hydrodynamic load evaluation; Section 4 presents the  ;

structural and mechanical analyses - and acceptance criteria, and Appendix A presents the hydrodynamic l

loads acceptance criteria.

1-3.1 Hydrodynamic Loads: NRC Acceptance Criteria O

Appendix A of NUREG-0661 resulted from the NRC review of the load definition procedures for suppression pool hydrodynamic loads contained in the LDR. The NRC review was limited to those events or event combinations involving suppression pool hydrodynamic loads. Unless specified otherwise, all loading conditions or structural analysis techniques used in the PUA, but not addressed in NUREG-0661, are in accordance with the Hope Creek FSAR.

Wherever feasible, the conservative hydrodynamic acceptance criteria of NUREG-0661 were incorporated directly into the detailed plant unique load determinations and associated structural analyses.

Where this simple, direct approach resulted in unrealistic hydrodynamic loads, more detailed plant unique analyses were performed. Many of these analyses have indicated that a specific interpreta-tion of the generic rules was justified. These specific applications of the generic hydrodynamic acceptance criteria are identified in the following sections and are discussed in greater detail in Section 1-4.0.

BPC-01-300-1 1-3.2 Revision 0 nutp_qh

l l

d 1-3.1.1 LOCA-Related Load Applications The hydrodynamic loads criteria are based on the NRC review and resulting revisions to experimentally-formulated hydrodynamic loads. Pool swell loads I derived from plant unique quarter-scale two-dimensional tests are used to obtain net torus uploads, downloads, and local pressure distribu-tions. Vent system impact and drag loads resulting from pool swell effects are also based on experimental results, using analytical techniques where appropriate.

Q Condensation oscillation and chugging loads were derived from FSTF results. Downcomer loads are based on test data, using comparisons of plant unique and FSTF dynamic load factors.

The acceleration drag volumes used in determining loads on submerged structures ~ are calculated based upon the values in published technical literature rather than on the procedure which might be inferred from NUREG-0661, where the structure is idealized as a cylindrical section for both velocity and 4

acceleration drag (see Section 1-4.1-5).

O ID) BPC-01-300-1 1-3.3 Revision 0 nutgsb

.a-, ..,c -

Condensation oscillation and post-chug torus shell and submerged structure loads are defined in terms of 50 harmonics. Random phasing of the loading har-monics is assumed, based on FSTF data and subsequent analysis (see Section 1-4.1.7.1).

NUREG-0661 states that the fluid-structure interac-tion (FSI) effect on CO and chugging loads on submerged structures can be accounted for by adding the shell boundary accelerations to the local fluid acceleration. For Hope Creek, the FSI effects for a given structure are included by adding the pool fluid acceleration at the location of the structure rather than the shell boundary acceleration (see Section 1-4.1.7.3).

1-3.1.2 SRV Discharge Load Applications V

The analysis techniques for SRV discharge loads were developed to generically define T-quencher air clearing loads on the torus. However, a number of Mark I licensees have indicated that the generic load definition procedures are overly conservative for their plant design, particularly when the procedures are coupled with conservative structural analysis techniques. To allow for these special cases, the NRC has specified requirements whereby in-plant tests could be used to derive the plant specific structural response to the SRV air clearing loads on the torus and submerged structures.

v Because of the various phenomena associated with the air clearing phase of SRV discharge, some form of analysis procedure is necessary to extrapolate from test conditions to the-design casos. Therefore, the NRC requirements are predicated on formulating a coupled load-structure analysis technique which is calibrated to the plant specific conditions for the simplest form of discharge (i.e., single valve, first actuation) and then applied to the design basis event conditions.

\' J BPC-01-300-1 1-3.5 Revision 0 nutagh

The SRV torus shell loads are evaluated using the alternate approach of NUREG-0661, which allows the use of in-plant SRV tests to calibrate a coupled load-structure analytical model. This method utilizes shell pressure waveforms more character-istic of those observed in tests. A series of in-plant SRV tests will be performed for Hope Creek after fuel load to confirm that the computed loadings and predicted structural responses for SRV discharges are conservative (see Section 1-4.2.3).

For SRV bubble-induced drag loads on submerged structures, a bubble pressure multiplier which bounds the maximum peak positive bubble pressure and the maximum bubble pressure differential across the quencher observed during the Monticello in-plant SRV l discharge tests is used (see Section 1-4.2.4).

l BPC-01-300-1 1-3.6 Revision 0 nutp_gh

l-3.1.3 Other Considerations As part of the PUA, each licensee is required to I

either demonstrate that previously submitted pool temperature response analys3s are adequate or pro-vide plant specific pool temperature response analyses to assure that SRV discharge transients will not exceed specified pool temperature limits.

A suppression pool temperature monitoring system is also required to ensure that the suppression pool bulk temperature remains within the allowable limits set forth in the plant technical specifications.

Section 6.2.1.1.10 of the Hope Creek FSAR discusses 3 specific implementation of these considerations.

Several loads are classified as secondary loads becauce of their inherent low magnitudes. These loads include seismic slosh pressure loads, post-pool swell wave loads, asymmetric pool swell pressure loads on the torus as a whole, sonic and compression wave loads, and 'owncomer air clearing loads. In accordance with Appendix A of NUREG-0661, these secondary loads are considered to be negligible compared to other loads in the PUA and are not evaluated.

1-3.2 Component Analysis: Structural Acceptance Criteria O

Section 4.0 of NUREG-0661 presents the NRC evalua-tion of the generic structural and mechanical acceptance criteria and of the general analysis techniques proposed by the Mark I Owners Group for use in the plant unique analyses. Because the Mark I plants were designed and constructed at different times, there are variations in the codes and standards to which they were constructed and subsequently licensed. For this assessment of the containment, the criteria described in this subsection were developed to provide a consistent and uniform basis for acceptability for all Mark I plants. In this evaluation, references to " original design criteria" mean those specific criteria in the Hope Creek FSAR.

BPC-01-300-1 1-3.8 Revision 0 nut.e_qh

1-3.2.1 Classification of Components The structures described in Section 1-1.3 were cate-gorized according to their functions to assign the appropriate service limits. The general components of a Mark I containment system have been classified l

l in accordance with Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, a.s specified in NUREG-0661.

1-3.2.2 Service Level Assignments The criterir. used in the plant unique analysis to O

evaluate the acceptability of the existing containment design or to provide the basis for plant modifications follow Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code through the Summer 1977 Addenda.

Service Limits The service limits are defined in terms of the Winter 1976 Addenda of the ASME Code, which introduced Levels A, B, C, and D. The selection of specific service limits for each load combination is dependent on the functional requirements of the component analyzed and the nature of the applied load. Tables 1-3.2-1 and 1-3.2-2 provide the assignments of service levels for each load combina-tion. Reference 2 describes details regarding service level assignments and other aspects of Tables 1-3.2-1 and 1-3.2-2.

The DBA for a Mark I containment is defined as the instantaneous guillotine rupture of the largest pipe in the primary system (recirculation suction line). This LOCA leads to a specific combination of dynamic, quasi-static, and static loads. However, the DBA does not represent the limiting case for all loads and structural responses. Consequently, an IBA and a SBA are also evaluated. The IBA is ,

defined as a 0.1 ft 2 instantaneous liquid line break in the primary system, and the SBA is defined as a j 2

0.01 ft instantaneous steam line break in the 1 I

primary system.

1-4.1.2 Vent System Discharge Loads I Of the three postulated LOCA categories, the DBA O l causes the most rapid pressurization of the containment system, the largest vent system mass flow rate, and therefore, the most severe vent system thrust loads. The pressurization of the containment for the IBA and SBA is much less rapid than for the design basis accident. Thus, the resulting vent system thrust loads for the SBA and IBA are bounded by the DBA thrust loads. Conse-quently, vent system thrust loads are only evaluated for the design basis accident.

Reaction loads occur on the vent system (main vent, vent header, and downcomers) following a LOCA due to pressure imbalances between the vent system and the surrounding torus airspace, and due to forces resulting from changes in linear momentum.

The LDR thrust equations consider the forces due to pre;.sure distributions and momentum to define horizontal and vertical thrust forces. These equations are included in the analytical procedures applied to the main vents, vent header, and down-comer portions of the vent system.

l BPC-01-300-1 1-4.6 Revision 0 nutggh

Because main vents and downcomers are located symmetrically about the center of the vent system, the horizontal vent system thrust loads equilibrate each other, resulting in a zero unbalanced horizontal vent system thrust load.

The bases, analytical procedures, and assumptions used to calculate thrust loads are described in the load definition report. The Hope Creek plant unique DBA thrust loads for the main vent, the vent header, and downcomers were developed using a zero initial drywell-to-wetwell pressure differential. The thrust loads used in this PUA are documented in Reference 7.

PUAR Volume 3 presents the c*r. lysis of the vent system for discharge loads. The vent system discharge loads are developed in accordance with Appendix A of NUREG-0661.

1-4.1.3 Pool Swell Loads on the Torus Shell O

During the postulated LOCA, the air initially in the drywell and vent system is expelled into the sup-pression pool, producing a downward reaction force on the torus followed by an upward reaction force.

These vertical loads create a dynamic imbslance of forces on the torus, which acts in addition to the weight of the water contained in the torus. This dynamic force history lasts for only a few seconds.

The bases, assumptions, and justifications for the pool swell loads on the torus shell due to the DBA are described in the load definition report. The pool swell loads on the torus shell are based on a series of Hope Creek unique tests conducted using the OSTF (Reference 8). The pool swell loads on the torus shell used in the PUA are based on the information contained in Reference 8, with the addition of the upload and download margins specified in Appendix A of NUREG-0661.

From the plant unique average submerged pr^ssure and the torus air pressure-time histories, the local average submerged pressure transients at different locations on the shell can be calculated using the BPC-01-300-1 1-4.8 Revision 0 nut.e_qh

1-4.1.4.1 Impact and Drag Loads on the Vent System In the event of a postulated design basis LOCA, the pool surface rises during the pool swell phase and impacts structures in its path. The resulting loading condition of primary interest is the impact on_the vent system. The impact phenomenon consists of two events: (1) the impact of the pool on the structure, and (2) the drag on the structure as the pool flows past it following impact. The load definition includes both the impact and drag portions of the loading transient.

. The vent system components which are potentially impacted during pool swell include the vent lines, the vent header, and the downcomers. The vent header will experience pool swell impact and drag loads since Hope Creek does not require a vent header deflector due to the use of a thicker vent header. The vent system pool swell impact and drag loads are developed from plant unique quarter-scale tests (Reference 8).

A generic pressure transient is specified for the downcomers and is assumed to apply uniformly over the bottom 50' of the angled portion of the

/

l i' BPC-01-300-1 1-4.11 Revision 0 nutggh

downcomer. The load transient and distribution are shown in Figures 1-4.1-1 and 1-4.1-2.

The vent header loads are developed on a plant unique basis. The LDR provides the bases, assump-tions, and justificatior.s for vent header impact loads. Reference 7 presents the full-scale vent header loads used for Hope Creek. These loads are based on a zero initial drywell-to-wetwell pressure differential and include the load definition requirements specified in Appendix A of NUREG-0661.

Pool swell impact and drag loads on the main vent line are calculated using the procedure specified in Appendix A of NUREG-0661.

The analysis of vent system for pool swell impact and drag loads is discussed in PUAR Volume 3.

V)

As the pool surface rises due to the bubbles forming at the downcomer exits, it may impact structures located in the wetwell airspace. In the present context, "other structures" are defined as all structures located above the initial pool surface, exclusive of the vent system.

The LDR presents the bases, assumptions, and method-ology-used in determining the pool swell impact and drag loads on structures located above the pool surface. These load specifications correspond to s impact on " rigid" structures.. When performing

.\v) structural dynamic analysis, the " rigid body" impact loads are applied. The mass of the impacted structure is adjusted by adding the hydrodynamic mass of impact, except for gratings. The value of hydrodynamic mass is obtained using the methods described in the LDR.

I l-4.1.4.3 Pool Swell Froth Impingement Loads O

During the final stages of the pool swell phase of a DBA LOCA, the rising pool breaks up into a two-phase froth mixture of air and water. This froth rises above the pool surface and may impinge on structures within the torus airspace. Subsequently, as the froth falls back, it creates froth fallback loads.

Froth may be generated by two mechanisms as described below.

Region I Froth As the rising pool strikes the bottom of the vent header, a froth spray which travels upward and to both sides of the vent header is formed. This is defined as the Region I froth impingement zone (Figure 1-4.1-5).

Region II Froth A portion of the water above the expanding air bubble becomes detached from the bulk pool and travels vertically upward. This water is influenced only by its own inertia and gravity. The " bubble breakthrough" creates a froth which rises into the BPC-01-300-1 1-4.18 Revision 0 nutggh

m airspace beyond the maximum bulk pool swell height. This is defined as the Region II froth impingement zone (Figure 1-4.1-6).

The LDR methods are used to define the froth impingement loads for Region 1. For the Region I froth formation, the LDR method assumes the froth density to be 20% of full water density for structures with maximum cross-section dimensions of less than l', and a proportionally lower density for structures greater than l'. The load is applied as a step function for a duration of 80 milliseconds in the direction most critical to the structure within the region of load application.

g%

The froth density of Region II is assumed to be 100%

of water density for structures or sections of structures with a maximum cross-sectional dimension less than or equal to l' , 25% of water density for structures greater than l', and 10% of water density for structures located within the projected region directly above the vent header. The load is applied as a rectangular pulse with a duration of 100 milliseconds in the direction most critical to the structure within the region of load application.

A BPC-01-300-1 1-4.19 Revision 0

For some structures, the procedures described above result in unrealistically conservative loads. In these situations, the alternate procedure outlined in Appendix A of NUREG-0661 is used. This procedure consists of calculating Region I froth loads from high-speed OSTP movies. In this case, the froth source velocity, mean jet angle, and froth density in Regici I are derived from a detailed analysis of the OSI. plant specific high-speed films.

With either methodology for Region I, the vertical component of the source velocity i$i decelerated to the elevation of the target structure to obtain the froth impingement velocity. The load is applied in the direction most critical to the structure within the sector obtained from OSTF movies. The OSTF movies are also used to determine whether a struc-ture is impinged by Region I froth. Uncertainty limits for each parameter are applied to assure a conservative load specification.

The froth fallback pressure is based on the conser-vative assumption that all of the froth fallback momentum is transferred to the structure. The froth velocity is calculated by allowing the froth to fall freely from the height of the upper torus shell BPC-01-300-1 1-4.20 Revision 0 nutp_qb

directly above the subject structure. The froth fallback pressure is applied uniformly to the upper projected area of the structure being analyzed in the direction most critical to the behavior of the structure. The froth fallback is specified to start when the froth impingement load ends and lasts for 1.0 second. The range of direction of application is downward 145 degrees from the vertical.

The pool swell froth impingement and froth fallback  ;

loads used in the PUA are in accordance with Appendix A of NUREG-0661. The effects of these

loadings on elevated structures are discussed in PUAR Volumes 3 through 6.

1-4.1.4.4 Pool Fallback Loads This subsection describes pool fallback loads which O

apply to structures within the torus that are below the upper surface of the pool at its maximum height and above the downcomer exit level. After the pool surface has reached maximum height as a result of pool swell, it falls back under the influence of gravity and creates drag loads on structures inside the torus shell. The structures affected are between the maximum bulk pool swell height and the downcomer exit level, or immersed in an air bubble extending beneath the downcomer exit level.

For structures immersed in the pool, the drag force during fallback (as described in the LDR) is the sum of standard drag (proportional to the velocity squared) and acceleration drag (proportional to the acceleration). For structures which are beneath the upper surface of the pool but within the air bubble, there is an initial load associated with resub-mergence of the structure by either an irregular impact with the bubble-pool interface or a process similar to froth fallback. This initial load is bounded by the standard drag because conservative assumptions are made in calculating the standard drag.

BPC-01-300-1 1-4.24 O

Revision 0 nutp_qh

^

The load calculation procedure, as described in the

< LDR, requires determination of the maximum pool swell height above the height of the top surface of the structure. Freefall of the bulk fluid from this height is assumed to occur, producing both standard drag and acceleration drag. The total drag is calculated to be the sum of the two.

l The LUR procedure results in a conservative calcula-tion of the velocity since it is unlikely that any appreciable amount of pool fluid will be in freefall t

through this entire distance. The maximum, pool swell height is determined from the OSTF plant 4 unique tests (Reference 8).

O The procedures outlined in' Appendix A of NUREG-0661 are used to account for interference effects associated with both standard and acceleration drag

forces.

4 Structures which may be enveloped by the LOCA bubble are evaluated for potential fallback loads as a result of bubble collapse to ensure that such loads-are not larger than the LOCA bubble drag loads t

(Section 1-4.1.6).

BPC-01-300-1 1-4.25 Revision 0

The fallback load is applied iniformly over the upper projected surface of the structure in the direction most critical to the behavior of the structure. The range of 145 degrees from the vertical is applied to both the radial and longitudinal planes of the torus.

The procedures used to determine pool fallback loads in the PUA are in accordance with Appendix A of NUREG-0661. The effects of this loading on elevated structures are discussed in PUAR Volumes 3 through 6.

1-4.1.5 LOCA Water Jet Loads on Submerged Structures As the drywell pressurizes during a postulated DBA LOCA, the water slug initially standing in the sub-merged portion of the downcomer vents is accelerated downward into the suppression pool. As the water slug enters the pool, it forms a jet which loads structures which are intercepted by the discharge.

Forces due to the pool acceleration and velocity induced by the advancing jet front are also included in the analysis.

The LOCA water jet loads affect structures which are enclosed by the jet boundaries and last from the time that the jet first reaches the structure until the last particle of the water slug passes the structure. Pool motion can create loads on structures which are within the region of motion for the duration of the water jet. The assumptions included in the methodology are presented in the load definition report.

The calculation procedure used to obtain LOCA jet loads is based on experimental data obtained from tests performed at the Ouarter-Scale Test Facility 1

'~ BPC-01-300-1 1-4.27 Revision 0 nutggb

(Reference 8), and on the analytical model described in Reference 1.

As the jet travels through the pool, the particles at the rear of the water slug, which were discharged from the downcomer at higher velocities, catch up with particles at the front of the water slug, which were discharged at lower velocities. When this

" overtaking" occurs, both particles are assumed to continue on at the higher velocity. As the rear particles catch up to the particles in front, the jet becomes shorter and wider. When the last fluid particle leaving the downcomer catches up to the front of the jet, the jet dissipates.

O Forces due to pool motion induced by the advancing jet are calculated for structures that are within four downcomer diameters below the downcomer exit elevation. The flow field, standard drag, and acceleration drag are calculated using the equations in the LDR.

Structures that are within four downcomer diameters below the downcomer exit elevation will sustain a loading, first from the flow field induced by the jet, then from the jet itself if it is within the BPC-01-300-1 1-4.28 Revision 0 nut.e_qh

m cross-section of the jet. Forces resulting from the flow field are due to standard drag and acceleration drag. The force from the jet is due to standard drag only,-since particles within the jet travel at a constant discharge velocity (i.e., there is no I

acceleration).

The standard drag force on the submerged structure is computed based on the normal component of veloc-ity intercepting the structure, the projected area

! of the structure intercepted by the normal component of velocity, and,the jet or flow field area.

For LOCA water jet loads, downcomers are modeled as jet sources for submerged structures based on the location of the structure.

Structures are divided into several sections, following the procedure given in the LDR and the criteria given in NUREG-0661. For each section, the

! location, acceleration drag volume, drag l coefficient, and orientation are input into the LOCA i

jet model.

l The LOCA water jet loads on circular, cross-sectional structures due to standard and accelera-tion drag are developed in accordance with Appendix A of NUREG-0661. For structures with sharp corners, these drag loads are calculated considering forces on an equivalent cylinder of diameter Deq "

2 1/2 Emax, where hax is the maximum transverse dimension. For acceleration drag, this technique results in unrealistic loads on some structures such as I-beams due to the significant increase in the acceleration drag volume. In these cases, the acceleration drag volumes in Table 1-4.1-1 are used in the acceleration drag load calculation. A literature search concluded that these acceleration drag volumes are appropriate in this application.

References 9 and 10 show that the values in this table are applicable for the cases evaluated in this analysis.

t l-4.1.6 LOCA Bubble-Induced Loads on Submerged Structures

/_

During the initial phase of the DBA, pressurized j drywell air is purged into the suppression pool through the submerged downcomers. After the vent clearing phase of a DBA, a single Dubble is formed around each dow7 comer. During the bubble growth period, unsteady fluid motion is created within the suppression pool. During this pe riod ,- submerged structures will be subjected to transient hydro-dynamic loads.

The bases of the flow model and load evaluation for the definition of LOCA bubble-induced loads on submerged structures are presented in Section 4.3.8 of the LDR.

After contact between bubbles of adjacent down-comers, the pool swell flow field above the downcomer exit elevation is derived from OSTP plant unique tests (Reference 8). After bubble contact, the load will only act vertically. This pool swell drag load is computed using the method described in Section 1-4.1.4.2.

T

\ BPC-01-300-1 1-4.33 Revision 0 nutggb

The parameters which affect load determination are torus geometry, downcomer locations, and thermo-dynamic properties. Table 1-4.1-2 presents values for these plant specific parameters. The DBA plant unique transient drywell pressure-time history (Reference 8) is also used for load determination.

The torus is modeled as a rectangular cell with dimensions given in Table 1-4.1-2. The structures are divided into sections and the loads on each section are calculated following the procedure given in the LDR and the criteria given in NUREG-0661.

The procedure used for calculating drag loads on structures with circular and sharp-cornered cross-sections is in accordance with Appendix A of NUREG-3661. For some structures with sharp corners such as I-beams, the acceleration drag volumes are calculated using the information in Table 1-4.1-1.

1-4.1.7 Condensation Oscillation Loads O

This subsection describes the CO loads acting on the various containment structures and piping systems.

Following the poci swell phase of a postulated LOCA, there is a period during which condensation oscillations occur at the downcomer exit.

Condensation oscillations are associated with the pulsating movement of the steam-water interface, caused by variations in the condensation rate at the downcomer exit. These condensation oscillatioas cause periodic pressure oscillations on the torus shell, submerged structures, and inside the vent system. The loads specified for CO are based on the FSTF tests (References 11, 12, and 13). The LDR and NUREG-0661 discuss the bases, assumptions, and methodology for computation of the CO loads.

BPC-01-300-1 1-4.36 Revision 0 nutggh

1-4.1.7.1 CO Loads on Torus Shell Loads on the submerged portion of the torus shell during the CO phenomenon consist of pressure oscillations superimposed on the prevailing local static pressures.

The CO load on the torus shell is a rigid wall load specified in terms of the pressure at the torus bottom dead center. It is used in conjunction with a flexible wall coupled fluid-structure torus a model. The LDR load definition for CO consists of 50 harmonic loadings with amplitudes which vary with frequency. Three alternate rigid wall pressure amplitude variations in the range of 4 to 16 hertz are specified in the load definition report. A fourth alternate load case is also considered, based on the results of Test M12 from the supplemental test series conducted at the FSTF (References 12 and 13). Table 1-4.1-3 and Figure 1-4.1-7 give the rigid wall pressure amplitude variation with frequency. The alternate frequency spectrum which produces the maximum total response is used for analysis.

The effects of all harmonics are summed to obtain the total response of the structure. Random phasing of the loading harmonics is assumed, based on experimental observations and subsequent analysis.

The implementation of the random phasing approach for the structural evaluation is accomplished by multiplying the absolute sum of the responses of all 50 harmonics by a scale factor. This scale factor is calculated using cumulative distribution function (CDF) curves of the responses at 14 locations on the FSTP torus shell. Each of the CDF curves is generated using 200 sets of random phase angles.

Using this approach, a scale factor of 0.65 is developed which results in a nonexceedance probability (NEP) of 84's at a confidence level of 90% (Table 1-4.1-4). This scale factor is applied to the absolute sum of the responses of all 50 harmonics for all Hope Creek torus shell locations evaluated.

Table 1-4.1-4 compares measured and calculated FSTP response to CO loads. The calculated FSTF response in this table is determined using CO Load Alternates 1, 2, and 3 and the random phasing approach described above. The calculated response is greater BPC-01-300-1 1-4.38 Revision 0 nutp_qh

than the measured response in all cases, demonstrat-ing the conservatism of this approach. Although not shown in Table 1-4.1-4, CO Load Alternate 4 adds approximately 20% to the calculated shell response.

Thus, using Alternate 4 in the Hope Creek analysis results in additional conservatism to the comparison shown in Table 1-4.1-4 since the calculated response for Alternates 1, 2, and 3 already bounds the measured response for Alternate 4 or test M12.

Table 1-4.1-5 specifies the onset times and dura-tions for condensation oscillation. Test results indicate that for the postulated IBA, CO loads are bounded by chugging loads. Test results also q indicate that Cor the postulated SBA, CO loads are not significant; therefore, none is specified.

The longitudinal CO pressure distribution along the torus centerline is uniform. The cross-sectional variation of the torus wall pressure varies linearly with elevation, from zero at the water surface to the maximum at the torus bottom (Figure 1-4.1-8).

Since torus dimensions and the number of downcomers vary, the magnitude of the CO load differs for each Mark I plant. A multiplication factor is developed f

(%

V) BPC-01-300-1 1-4.39 Revision 0 nutgsb

to account for the effect of the pool-to-vent area ratio. This factor is 0.87 for Hope Creek, developed using the method described in the LDR.

The Hope Creek plant unique CO load is determined by multiplying the amplitude of the baseline rigid wall load (Table 1-4.1-3) by this factor.

The effects of CO torus shell loads on the suppression chamber are discussed in PUAR Volume 2.

1-4.1.7.2 CO Loads on Downcomers and Vent System Downcomer Dynamic Loads The downcomers experience loading during the CO phase of a postulated LOCA. The procedure for defining the dynamic portion of this loading for both a DBA and an IBA is presented in this section. Condensation oscillation loads do not occur for the SBA. The bases, assumptions, and loading definition details are presented in the LDR.

The downcomer dynamic load involves two components:

(1) an internal pressure load of equal magnitude in each downcomer in a pair, and (2) a differential pressure load between down-comers in a pair.

Both the internal pressure load and the differential pressure load have three frequency bands over which they are applied. Figure 1-4.1-9 shows a typical downcomer and a schematic of downcomer loading

-conditions during the CO phase of a LOCA.

O BPC-01-300-1 Revision 0 1-4.47 nutagh ,

i Table 1-4.1-6 lists the downcomer internal pressure loads for DBA CO. Figure 1-4.1-10 shows the internal pressure load and the three frequency bands over which it is applied. The dominant downcomer frequency is determined from a harmonic analysis, where the dominant downcomer frequency is shown to occur in the frequency range of the second CO downcomer load harmonic (see Volume 3). The first and third CO downcomer load harmonics are therefore applied at frequencies equal to 0.5 and 1.5 times the value of the dominant downcomer frequency.

Table 1-4.1-7 defines the downcomer differential pressure loads for DBA CO. Application of the dominant harmonic differential pressures is the same as for the internal pressure application previously discussed. Figure 1-4.1-11 shows the differential pressure amplitudes and frequency ranges.

Figure 1-4.1-12 shows how the downcomer CO dynamic loads are applied to the different downcomer pairs on the Hope Creek vent system. The total response of the downcomer-vent header intersection to the CO dynamic load is the sum of the responses from the internal and differential pressure components, BPC-01-300-1 1-4.48 Revision 0 nutg_qh

Table 1-4.1-8 provides the downcomer internal pressure loads for IBA CO. Figure 1-4.1-13 shows I these downcomer internal pressure load values and the range of application. Table 1-4.1-9 gives the downcomer differential pressure loads for IBA CO.

The procedure used to evaluate the IBA CO downcomer loads is the same as that used for the DBA CO downcomer loads. The load cases for the IBA loads are also the same as for the DBA loads; therefore, Figure 1-4.1-12 is used.

Vent System Loads Loads on the vent system during the CO phenomenon result- from harmonic pressure oscillations superimposed on the prevailing local static pressures in the vent system.

Condensation oscillation loads are specified for all three major ccmponents of the vent system: (1) the main vents, (2) the vent header, and (3) the down-comers (Table 1-4.1-10). As determined from FSTF data, these loads are generic and thus directly applicable to all Mark I plants.

O

\b) BPC-01-300-1 1-4.49 Revision 0 nutggb

In addition to the oscillating pressure described above, a uniform static pressure is applied to the main vents, vent header, and the downcomers to account for the nominal submergence of the downcomers.

The effects of CO loads on the vent system are evaluated in PUAR Volume 3.

1-4.1.7.3 CO Loads on submerged Structures

\

v)

The CO phase of a postulated LOCA induces bulk pool motion, creating drag loads on structures submerged in the pool. The basis of the analytical model used to determine CO loads on submerged structures is presented in the LDR.

Condensation oscillations result in pressure sources located at the downcomer exits. The average source strengths are determined from wall load measure-ments. By, using potential flow theory and the method of images to account for the effects of solid

,- walls and the free surface, the velocity and A

\ acceleration flow fields within the torus are established. For each structure, the loads are computed using both the average source strength applied at all downcomers and the maximum source strength applied at the nearest downcomer.

The FSI effects are included when the local fluid acceleration is less than twice the torus boundary acceleration. Suppression pool fluid accelerations are computed within the torus using frequency-decomposed radial shell accelerations obtained from the torus analysis described in PUAR Volume 2. The

~BPC-01-300-1 1-4.61 Revision 0 nutagh

FSI effects for a given structure are computed using the pool fluid accelerations at the location of the structure.

The CO drag forces on submerged structures can be separated into two components: (1) standard drag, and (2) acceleration drag. The sum of these two effects gives the total drag load on a submerged structure. The calculations for CO loads on submerged structures use the same procedure used for calculating LOCA bubble-induced drag loads on submerged structures. Acceleration drag volumes for some structures with sharp corners (e.g., I-beams) are calculated using equations from Table 1-4.1-1 instead of volumes derived by circumscribed cylinders, as noted in Section 1-4.1.5.

Presented in Table 1-4.1-11 are the source ampli-tudes used for CO loads on submerged structures, which are in accordance with NUREG-0661. The source forcing function has the form of a sinusoidal wave characterized by the appropriate amplitude and frequency taken from Table 1-4.1-11. The LDR defines the total drag force as the surmation of the resulting responses from all 50 harmonics. As BPC-01-300-1 1-4.62 Revision 0 nutp_qh

1-4.1.8 Chugging Loads This subsection describes the chugging loads on the various containment structures and piping systems.

Chugging occurs during a postulated LOCA when the steam flow through the vent system falls below the rate necessary to maintain steady condensation at the downcomer exits. The corresponding flowrates for chugging are less than those of the CO phenomenon. During chugging, steam bubbles form at the downcomer exits, oscillate as they grow to a critical size (approximately downcomer diameter),

and begin to collapse independently in time. The resulting load - on the torus shell due to a chug cycle consists of a low frequency oscillation (pre-chug) which corresponds to the oscillating bubbles at the downcomer exit as they grow, followed by a higher frequency " ring-out" of the torus shell-pool water . system (post-chug) in response to the

~

collapsing bubbles (Figure 1-4.1-14).

l-4.1.8.1 Chugging Loads on Torus Shell O

During the chugging phase of a postulated LOCA, the chugging loads on the torus shell occur as a series of chug cycles. The chugging load cycles are divided into pre-chug and post-chug portions. The bases for pre-chug and post-chug rigid wall load definitions are presented in the load definition report.

For the pre-chug portion of the chug cycle, both symmetric and asymmetric loading conditions are used to conservatively account for any randomness in the chugging phenomenon. The asymmetric loading is based on both low and high amplitude chugging data conservatively distributed around the torus in order to maximize the asymmetric loading.

In . order to bound the post-chug portion of the chug cycle, symmetric loads are used. Asymmetric loads are not specified since any azimuthal response would be governed by the asymmetric pre-chug low frequency load specification.

BPC-01-300-1 1-4.67

. Revision 0 nutggb

Presented in Table 1-4.1-12 are the chugging onset times and durations for the DBA, IBA, and SBA, which are in accordance with the LDR. Hope Creek utilizes turbine driven feedwater pumps, and the IBA scenario for this configuration is described in Section 2.2 of the LDR. For the SBA, the automatic depressur-ization system (ADS) is assumed to initiate 300 -

seconds after the break and the reactor is assumed to be depressurized 200 seconds after ADS initiation, when chugging ends. For the IBA, the a

reactor is assumed to be depressurized 600 seconds after ADS initiation, when chugging ends.

a. Pre-Chug Load O

The symmetric pre-chug torus shell pressure load is specified as 2 psi, applied uniformly along the torus longitudinal axis. Figure 1-4.1-15 shows the longitudinal distribution of the asymmetric pre-chug pressure load, which varies from i0.4 to 12.0 psi. The pre-chug cross-sectional distribution for both symmetric and asymmetric cases is the same as for CO (Figure 1-4.1-16). The pre-chug loads are applied at the structural frequency in the range of 6.9 to 9.5 hertz. Table 1-4.1-12 BPC-01-300-1 1-4.68 Revision 0 nutp_qh

shows the pre-chug load is conservatively O assumed to be a steady state harmonic load applied throughout the chugging durations shown in Table 1-4.1-12.

b. Post-Chug Load Table 1-4.1-13 and Figure 1-4.1-17 define the amplitude versus frequency variation for the post-chug torus shell pressure load. The load is applied uniformly along the torus longi-tudinal axis. The cross-sectional variation is the same for CO and pre-chug loads (Figure 1-4.1-16). The steady-state responses from

( l

\d the application of the pressure amplitudes at each frequency given in Figure 1-4.1-17 are

, summed. The summation is performed to achieve a NEP c2 84% as described in Section 1-4.1.7.1 for the CO load. The post-chug load is conservatively assumed to be a steady state harmonic load applied throughout the chugging durations shown in Table 1-4.1-12.

The effects of chugging loads on the torus shell are evaluated in PUAR volume 2.

1-4.1.8.2 Chugging Downcomer Lateral Loads During the chugging phase of a postulated LOCA, bubbles which form at the downcomer exits collapse suddenly and intermittently to produce lateral loads l

l on the downcomers. This section presents the l

procedure used for defining the dynamic portion of this loading.

The basis for the chugging lateral load definition is the data obtained from the instrumented down-comers of the FSTF. The load definition was developed for, and is directly applicable to, downcomer pairs which are untied. Based on FSTF O)

( observations, this load definition is also applicable to tied downcomers.

The PSTF downcomer lateral loads are defined as resultant static-equivalent loads (RSEL) which, when applied statically to the end of the downcomer, reproduce the maximum measured bending response near

.the'downcomer-vent header (DC/VH) junction.

f The loads associated with chugging obtained from the FSTF data are scaled to determine plant specific loads for Hope Creek. The maximum downcomer load BPC-01-300-1 1-4.75 Revision 0

magnitude, histograms of load reversals, and the maximun vent system loading produced by synchronous chugging of the downcomers are determined from the FSTF loads.

NUREG-0661 states that the force per downcomer should be based on a probability of exceedance of 10-4 per LOCA for multiple downcomers during chugging. This requirement relates to the potential for a number of downcomers experiencing a lateral load in the same direction at the same time. The correlation between load magnitude and probability level was derived from a statistical analysis of FSTF data. A probability of exceedance of 10-4 per LOCA bounds all the load cases up to about 120 downcomers during chugging at the same time in a given plant. Hope Creek has 80 downcomers; therefore, a probability of exceedance of 10-4 per LOCA is conservative and is used for the multiple downcomer chugging load cases (F igure 1-4.1-18).

For fatigue evaluation of the downcomers, the required stress reversals at the downcomer-vent header junction are obtained from the FSTF RSEL reversal histograms. The plant unique junction stress reversals are obtained by scaling the FSTF BPC-01-300-1 1-4.76 Revision 0 nutp_qh

RSEL reversals by the ratio of the chugging duration specified for Hope Creek to that of the full-scale test facility. Table 1-1.1-12 specifies chugging durations for the DBA, IBA, and small break accident. l l

1-4.1.8.5 Chugging Loads on Submerged Structures

\

Chugging at the downcomer exits induces bulk pool motion, and therefore creates drag loads on

( structures submerged in the pool. The submerged structure load definition method for chugging follows that used to predict drag forces caused by l

condensation oscillations (see Section 1-4.1.7.3), I L

except that the source strength for chugging is proportional to the wall load measurement corresponding to the chugging regime.

The LDR presents the baces and assumptions of the analytical model used for the chugging load Q definition. Table 1-4.1-14 presents the source amplitudes foc pre-chug and post chug regimes.

The load development procedure for chugging loads on submerged structures is the same as presented in Section 1-4.1.7.3 for CO loads and is in accordance with NUREG-0661. The responses from the 50 harmonics are summed as described in Section 1-4.1.7.1. Acceleration drag volumes for structures with sharp corners (e.g., I-beams) are calculated using equations from Table 1-4.1-1. Fluid-structure i

~ 1-4.2 Safety Relief Valve Discharge Loads This section discusses 'the procedures used to determine loads resulting from the actuation of one or more SRV's.

When a SRV actuates, pressure and thrust loads are exerted on the SRVDL piping and the T-quencher j

discharge device. In addition, the expulsion of water followed by air into the suppression pool l through the T-quencher results in pressure loads on the submerged portion of the torus shell and in drag loads on submerged structures.

l i

m I The T-quencher utilized in Hope Creek is a standard Mark I T-quencher described in the load definition report. The T-quencher has 12", Schedule 80 arms which are mitered at the connection to the ramshead as described in Section 1-2.1.4. Since the T-quenchers for Hope Creek are located at the mitered joint, use of a mitered T-quencher results in symmetric torus shell loads. Figures 1-4.2-1 and 1-4.2-2 illustrate the geometry of the SRVDL, ramshead, and T-quencher connection and the hole distribution along a typical quencher arm.

1-4.2.1 SRV Actuation Cases This section provides a discussion of SRV discharge cases considered for evaluations. The load cases summarized in Table 1-4.2-1 are described as follows.

Load Case A1.1 (Normal Operating Conditions (NOC),

First Actuation)

The first actuation of a SRV may occur under 1

I normal operating conditions; i.e., the SRVDL

! is cold, there is air in the drywell, and the j water in the SRV is at its normal operating level.

Load Case Al.2 (SBA/IBA, First Actuation)

First actuation of SRV(s) is assumed to occur at the predicted time of ADS actuation. At this time, the SRVDL is full of air at the -

pressure corresponding to the drywell pressure minus the vacuum breaker set point. The water level inside the line is depressed below the normal operating level because the drywell pressure is higher than the wetwell pressure l

BPC-01-300-1 1-4.87 Revision 0

I by a pressure differential equal to the down-comer submergence.

Load Case A1.3 (DBA, First Actuation)

The same assumptions are used as for Case Al.1, except for SRV flowrate. This load case is bounded by Case A1.1.

Load Case B (First Actuation, Leaking SRV)

First actuation of a SRV may occur under NOC for leaking safety relief valves. For T-quenchers, Load Case A1.1 bounds the leaking SRV load.

Load Case C3.1 (NOC, Subsequent Actuation, Normal Water Leg)

After the SRV is closed following a first actuation (Case Al.1), the steam in the line is condensed, causing a rapid pressure drop which draws water back into the line. At the same time, the vacuum breaker allows air from the drywell to enter the discharge line. The air repressurizes the line and the water BPC-01-300-1 1-4.88 Revision 0 nutgqh

refloods to a point which is higher than its equilibrium height, and oscillates back to its equilibrium point. A subsequent actuation is assumed to occur after the water level oscillations have damped out and the water leg has returned to the normal water level.

Load Case C3.2 (SBA/IBA, Subsequent Actuation)

Following SRV closure after the first actuation (Case Al.2) in the SBA/IBA, the water refloods back into the line while air from the drywell flown through the vacuum breaker into the SRV discharge line. The SRV is assumed to actuate after the water level oscillations have damped out and the level has stabilized at a point determined by the drywell-to-wetwell AP minus the vacuum breaker set point.

Load Case C3.3 (SBA/IBA, Subsequent Actuation, Steam in SRVDL)

This caso differs from the previous case in that during the reflood transient, steam, instead of air, flows through the vacuum BPC-01-300-1 1-4.89 Revision 0 nutp_qh I - - - - - - - - - - - -

l breaker. Thus, the line contains very little air and the loading imposed on the torus shell from this subsequent SRV actuation is bounded by Case C3.2.

The SRVDL water leg is assumed at its equilibrium height for all subsequent actuation SRV cases. The time after the first valve closure when the equilibrium height is reestablished is calculated using the LDR SRVDL reflood model. Hope Creek primary system transient analyses are used to confirm that more than the minimum required time is

~

available for the SRVDL water leg to return to the equilibrium position. To further insure that the SRVDL water leg will be at its equilibrium height for all subsequent SRV actuation cases, Hope Creek will have delay logic on the two lowest-set relief valves to allow this water leg to clear after initial actuation. For the steam-in-the-drywell conditions, a steam-water convective heat transfer coefficient of 2 x 10 5 BTU /hr*ft2.*R is used. This conservative coefficient is based on the results of a literature survey on chugging and the downcomer water column rise characteristics during chugging in the Mark I Full-Scale Test Facility.

BPC-01-300-1 1-4.90 Revision 0 nutegh

The number of SRV's predicted to actuate for each of the above conditions is maximized in performing the Hope Creek structural evaluations, as documented in the remaining PUAR volumes. Section 1-4.3 describes the other hydrodynamic loads which are combined with SRV loads.

1-4.2.2 SRV Discharge Line Clearing Loads O

d The flow of high pressure steam into the discharge line when a SRV opens results in the development of a pressure wave at the entrance to the line. During the early portion of this transient, a substantial pressure differential exists across the pressure wave. This pressure differential, plus momentum effects resulting from steam (or water in the initially submerged pipe runs) flowing through elbows in the line, produce transient thrust loads on the SRV discharge piping segments. These loads

. are considered in the evaluation of the SRV piping restraints, the SRV piping penetrations in the vent lines, and the T-quencher support system.

The LDR presents the bases, assumptions, and descriptions of the SRV discharge line clearing analytical model. The parameters affecting SRVDL clearing loads development are the SRVDL geometry, plant specific initial conditions for the SRV actuation cases, and the SRV mass flowrate. Table 1-4.2-2 presents plant specific initial conditions for various actuation cases. ' Table 1-4.2-3 presents common (but case-independent) SRVDL analysis input parameters. All calculation input procedures for O

pressure and water clearing time are used as input to evaluate the torus shell loads (Section 1-4.2.3) and SRV air bubble drag loads (Section 1-4.2.4) on i

The water clearing thrust load along the axis of the T-quencher (due to the uneven flowsplit in the ramshead), and the thrust load perpendicular to the T-quencher arms (due to a skewed air-water interface) are calculated as specified in the LDR.

The calculation procedures, load definitions, and applications used for SRV water and air clearing thrust and all other SRV water clearing loads are in accordance with the LDR and Appendix A of NUREG-0661. The effects of SRV line clearing loads on the SRV piping and supports are evaluated in PUAR Volume 5.

r 1-4.2.3 SRV Loads on the Torus Shell Following an SRV actuation, the air mass in the O

SRVDL is expelled into the suppression pool, forming many small air bubbles. These bubbles then coalesce into four larger bubbles which expand and contract as they rise and break through the pool surface.

The positive and negative dynamic pressures developed within these bubbles result in an oscillatory, attenuated pressure loading on the torus shell.

The analytical model which is used to predict air bubble and torus shell boundary pressures resulting from SRV discharge is similar to that described in Reference 14. The analytical model in Reference 14 was modified slightly to more closely bound the magnitudes and time characteristics of pressures observed in the Monticello test. Figure 1-4.2-3 shows a comparison of the shell pressure-time history measured during the Monticello test to the shell pressure-time history computed using the revised analytical model. The comparison is shown for shell pressures at the bottom of the torus beneath the quencher, where the highest shell pressures were observed. Figure 1-4.2-3 shows that BPC-01-300-1 1-4.98 Revision 0 nutp_qh

m the predicted shell pressures envelop those observed in the Monticello test.

The pressure-time history generated using the analytical model discussed above is used to perform a forced vibration analysis of the suppressicn chamber. The phenomena associated with SRV discharge into the suppression pool are characteristic of an initial value or free vibration condition rather than a forced vibration condition. Correction factors are applied to convert the forced vibration response to a free vibration response.

The correction factors are developed using single

'k / degree-of-freedom analogs. The factors vary with the ratio of load frequency to structural frequency and are applied to the response (displacement, velocity, and acceleration) associated with each structural mode. Figure 1-4.2-4 shows the modal correction factors (MCF) which are used in the suppression chamber evaluation.

e 1-4.2.4 SRV Loads on Submerged Structures This section addresses the load definition pro-cedures for determining SRV loads on submerged structures due to T-quencher water jets and air bubbles.

When a SRV is actuated, water initially contained in the submerged portion of the SRVDL is forced out of the T-quencher through holes in the arms, forming orifice jets. Some ctstance downstream, the orifice jets merge to form column jets. Further downstream, the column jets merge to form the quencher arm jets. As soon as the water flow through the arm hole ceases, the quencher arm jet velocity decreases rapidly and the jet penetrates a limited distance into the pool. The T-quencher water jets create drag loads on nearby submerged structures within the jet path.

Oscillating bubbles resulting from a SRV actuation create an unsteady three-dimensional flow field, and therefore induce acceleration and standard drag forces on the submerged structures in the suppression pool.

of 2.5 is utilized for Hope Creek SRV load development. A value of 1.75 produces results which bound the peak positive bubble pressure and maximum bubble pressure differential from the Monticello T-quencher test data. Using 1.75, the calculated values for Monticello are 9.9 psid and 18.1 psid, respectively. The predicted values correspond to the single valve actuation, normal water level, and cold pipe case listed in Table 3.2 of Reference 14.

For submerged structures with sharp corners such as T-beams, I-beams, etc., the accelera-tion drag volumes are calculated using the methodology in Section 1-4.1.5.

The effects of SRV loads on submerged struc-tures are evaluated in PUAR volumes 2, 3, 5, and 6.

l 1-4.3 Event Sequence O

Not all of the suppression pool hydrodynamic loads discussed in this evaluation can occur at the same time. In addition, the load magnitudes and timing vary, depending on the accident scenario being considered. Therefore, it is necessary to construct a series of event combinations to describe the circumstances under which individual loads might ,

combine.

Tables 1-3.2-1 and 1-3.2-2 show the event combina-tions used in the plant unique analysis. The combinations of load cases were determined from typical plant primary system ano containment response analyses, with considerations for automatic actuation, manual actuation, and single active failures of the various systems in each event. This section describes the event sequences for the following postulated loss-of-coolant accidents.

The postulated DBA for the Mark I containment evaluation is the instantaneous guillotine rupture of the largest pipe in the primary system (the recirculation line). Figures 1-4.3-1 through 1-4.3-3 present the load combinations for the DBA.

Table 1-4.3-2 presents the nomenclature for these figures. The bar charts for the DBA show the loading condition combinations for postulated breaks large enough to produce significant pool swell. The length of the bars in the figures indicates the time periods during which the loading conditions may

.-g occur. Loads are considered to act simultaneously on a structure at a specific time if the loading condition bars overlap at that time. For SRV discharge, the loads may occur at any time during the indicated time period. The assumption of combining a-SRV discharge with the DBA is beyond the design basis for Hope Creek. Therefore, the DBA and SRV load combination is evaluated only to demonstrate containment structural capability.

Table 1-4.3-3 shows the SRV discharge loading conditions.
