. July 11, 1983 Saff-261-83 PIPE SUPPORT STIFFNESS ANALYSIS FOR INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION OF SARGENT AND LUNDY DESIGN BYRON UNIT NO. 1 A study was made to evaluate piping stress results using " infinite" stiffness values (1016) for supports versus " reasonable" stiffness values (10 ). The piping system used for this study was the auxiliary feedwater line (a) located in Byron Unit #1 of Commonwealth Edison Co. The reference (b) report prepared by Sargent & Lundy presents their stress analysis of the subject piping line. In that report nodal fixity was used to represent supports and anchor points. This is analogous to modeling the supports and anchors using infinite stiffness values (1016),

NUPIPE-II (c) was used for the EG&G analysis to model the piping system using 100% completed data as contained in reference (b). A computer plot of the NUPIPE model and microfiche of the computer output are attached.

A weight, pressure, and SSE (Safe-Shutdown Earthquake) analysis was per-formed for two different support conditions, as follows:

(a) all supports and anchors having " infinite" (10I0) stiffness.

(b) all supports and anchors having " reasonable" (1007) stiffness.

Tables were then prepared to compare Sargent & Lundy results with NUPIPE (1016) results and NUPIPE (1007) results. The tabulated results include support loads, anchor loads, and the 10 highest primary stresses (which were computed using 1974 ASME Code criteria for Class 2 systems).

, The stress comparison is presented in Table 1. Tables 2 and 3 present

the support and anchor load comparisons. Results of the comparisons indicate that
1. Piping stresses do not change significantly by using

" reasonable" stiffness versus " infinite" stiffness.

2. Support loads may or may not see a significant change.

One support for the test case had a load increase of 397 when the stiffness was changed to (1007) (NUPIPE node #90).

Note that this support has been examined and found to be adequate to withstand the additional load.

3. Anchor loads were reduced in value for the lower " reasonable" stiffness case.

In conclusion, results of the study indicate that the analysis procedures used by Sargent & Lundy adequately examine piping stresses per ASME Code criteria.
