1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 General To address local wall thinning of the Oyster Creek drywell, GPUN has 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 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 shall is considered in this analysis with the sandbed region being the area of primary concern.

1.2 Report Outline ,

Secti-~ S of this report cutlines the methodology used in the buckling '

capabliity evalua. tion. 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 corhinations are covered in section 4.-

- Section 5 presents the summary of results and conclusions.

2. BUCKLING ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY 2.1 Basic Approach The basic _ approach used in the buckling evaluation follows the methodology outlined in the ASME Code Case N 284 [ References 21, 2-2]. Following the procedure of this Code Case, the allowable compressive stress is evaluated in three steps.

In the first step, a theoretical elastic 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 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 elastic- buckling stress is modified by the appropriate capacity and plasticity reduction factors.

The capacity reduction factor, ej, accounts for the difference between classical -buckling theory and actual tested buckling stresses for fabricated shells. This difference is due to imoerfections inherent 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 fabricated shells is given by the product of the theoretical elastic buckling stress and the capacity' reduction factor, i.e., aj,oj. When the elastic buckling stress exceeds the proportional limit of the material, a plasticity reduction factor, gj, is used to account for non-linear material behavior. The inelastic buckling stress for fabricated shells is given by njajoje.

In the final step, the allowable compressive stress is obtained by dividing the buckling stress calculated in the second step by the safety factor, FS:

Allowable Compressive Stress - njojaj,/FS 2-1

X REV. 1

=

Ini Reference 2-1, the safety factor for the Design and Level A & B service conditions :is specified as 2.0. A safety factor of 1.67 is

specified for Level- C- service conditions (such as the post-accident j

- floooed _ condition).

- The Determination - of appropriate values for- capacity and plasticity reduction factors is discussed next.

2.2 Determination of_ Capacity Reduction Factor  :

The capacity reduction factor, aj, is used to account for reductions in actual buckli_ng strength due to the existence -of _ geometric .

imperfections. The_ capacity reduction factors given in Reference 2-1 are based on extensive data compiled by Miller (2-3). The factors appropriate-for a spherical shell geometry _such as that of the drywell in; the - sandbed region, are shown in Figure 2-1_(Figure 1512-1 of

  • Reference 2-1). The . tail (flat) end of. the curves are used for unstiffened , ells. 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, a4 is determined to be 0.207. ,

- 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 thickness. However, the drywell shell has a greater thickness above the - sandbed region which would reinforce the sandbed region. Second, itiis assumed' that the circumferential stress is zero. The tensile circumferential stress has the effect; of rounding. the shell and reducing the effect of imperfections introduced'during.the fabrication

-and construction phase. A modification 'of'the aj value to account for the : presence of ' tensile circumferential stress is discussed in Subsection 2.3.

The capacity reduction factor values given in Reference 2-1 are l

applicable to shells which meet the tolerance requirements of NE-4220 L

of Section -!!! (24]. Appendix A of- Reference 2 5 compares the tolerance requirements of NE-4220~ to the requirements to which the ,

'0yster Creek drywell .shell was fabricated. The comparison shows that ,

-the _ Oyster Creek drywell shell was erected to the tolerance requirements of NE-4220. Therefore, although the Oyster Creek drywell is not a- Section Ill, 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 The orthogonal tensile stress has the effect of rounding fabricated shells and reducing the effect of imperfections on the buckling strength. The Code Case N 284 (2-1 and 2-2) notes in the- last paragraph of Article 1500 that, "The influence of internal pressure on a shell structure may reduce the initial imperfections and therefore higher- values of capacity reduction factors may be acceptable. -

Justificat' ion for - higher values of aj must be given in the Design report."  ;

The effect of hoop tensile stress on the buckling strength of cylinders has been extensive 11y documented [2 through 2-11). Since the methods used in accounting for the effect of tensile hoop stress for the' cylinders and spheres- are similar, the test data and the methods- for the cylinders. are first~ reviewed.- Harris, et al (2-6]

presented a comprehensive set of test data, including those' from-

- References 2 7 and 2-8, which clearly showed ~that in_ternal pressure in

the form of- hoop tension, increases the axial buckling; stress of cylinders.. Figure 2-2 shows a plot. of the test data showing- the -

increase t'n buckling ~ stress as a function of nondimensional pressure.

This increase -in buckling c.pacity is _ accounted for by defining. a separate reduction factor, op. The capacity reduction factor og can

'then be modified.as follows:

p 01, mod " og + ap 2-3

ItNEXNhfREV.1 I

The buckling stress in nniaxial compression for a cylinder or a sphere of uniform . thickness with no internal pressure is given by the following:

Se- (0.605)(ag)Et/R (0.605)(0.207)'Et/R Where, 0.605 is a constant 0.207 is the capacity reduction factor.ag, and E,t and R are Young's Modulus, wall thickness and radius, respectively. In the presence of a tensile stress such as that produced by an internal pressure, the buckling stress is given as follows:

Sc, mod - (0.605)(og + op)Et/R (0.605)(0.207 + op )Et/R

[(0.605)(0.207) + AC) Et/R .

Where AC is pa /0.605 and is given for cylindrical geometries in the graphical form in Figure 2-3. As can be seen in Figure 2-3, AC is a function of the parameter X-(p/4E)(2R/t):, where ,p, is the internal pressure. - Miller [2-12) gives .the following equation that fits the graphical relationship between X and AC shown in Figure 2-3:

AC - ap/0.605 - 1.25/(5+1/X)_

The -preceding approach pertains to cylinders. Along the similar lines, Miller [2-13] has developed an approach for spheres as described next.

The non-dimensional parameter X is essentially (og/E)(R/t). Since in the case of a sphere, the hoop stress is one-half of that in the cylinder, the parameter X is redefined for spheres as follows:

X(sphere) - (p/8E)(2R/t)2 2-4

EX k REV. 1 When the tensile stress magnitude, S, is known, the equivalent internal pressure can be calculated using the expression:

p= 2tS/R Based on a review of spherical shell buckling data (2-14, 2 15),

Miller (2-13] proposed the following equation for AC:

AC(sphere) = . 00/(3.24 + 1/X)

The modified capacity reduction factor, oi, mod, for the drywell geometry was obtained as follows:

ai, mod - 0.207 + AC(sphere)/0.605 2.4 Determination of Plasticity Reduction Factor .

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 fabricated shells is given t.y ngajoje. Reference 2-2 gives the mathematical expressions shown below (Article -1611 (a)) to calculate the plasticity reduction factor for the meridional direction elastic buckling. stress. A is equal to ajoj,/oy and oy is the material yield strength. Figure 2-4 shows the relationship in graphical form.

3. FINITE ELEMENT MODELING AND ANALYSIS 3.1 finite Element Buckling Analysis Methodology

' This evaluation of the Oyster Creek Drywell buckling capability uses ,

the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) program ANSYS (Reference 31). The l

ANSYS program uses a two step eigenvalue formulation procedure to  !

perform linear elastic bucklir.g analysis. The first step is a static analysis of the structure with all anticipated loads applied. The '

structural stiffness matrix, [K), the stress stiffness matrix, [S),

and the applied stresses, a,p, are developed and saved from this

. static analysis. A buckling pass is then run to solve for the eigenvalue or load factor, for which elastic buckling is predicted using the equation: ,

( [K) + 1 (S) ) (u) = 0 where: A is the eigenvalue or load factor. ,

(u) is the eigenvector representing the buckled shape of the structure.

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 buckle for a load condition four times that defined in the stress pass. The critical stress, a ct, at a certain location of the structure is thus calculated as:

O cr

  • A #ap Inis theoretical elastic buckling stress is then modified by the capacity hnd plasticity reduction f actors to determine the predicted I buckling stress of the fabricated structure as discussed in Section 2.

This stress is further reduced by a factor of safety to determine the a110wable comprpssive stress.

.3. 2 finite Element Model ,

I The Oyster Creek drywell has been previou!!y analyzed using a simplified axisymmetric model to evaluate the buckling capability in the sar.cbed region [ Reference 32). 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. t The geometry of the Oyster Creek drywell is shown in figure 31.

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 i significant structural interaction between the drywell and torus.

4 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 95'4 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 elastic behavior. This element type was chosen over the elastic quadrilateral shell (ST!f63) element because it is better suited for modeling curved i surfaces. ,

Ifh x N R[V. 0 >

At a distance of 76 inches from the drywell shell, the vent is l sirnplified using beam elements. The transition from shell to beam  !

elements is made by extending rigid beam elements from a node along ^

the centerline of the vent radially outward to each of the shell nodes of the vent. ANSYS STlF4 beam elements are then connected to this  ;

centerline node to model the axial and bending stiffness of the vent  ;

and header. Spring ($T!f14) elements are used to model the vertical f header supports inside the torus. ANSYS ST!f4 beam elements are also used to model the stiffeners in the cylindrical region of the upper 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 a smooth transition in reduce thermal and mechanical discontinuities.

The sand provides lateral support to the drywell sphere in this region. The-foundation stiffness for the sandbed is considered to be ,

366 psi /in per Reference 2.4.10 of Reference 3 2. AftSYS SilF14 spring 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 area of each node in the sandbed region.

3.3 Drywell Materials 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 properties were modified to account for the reduction in stiffness due i to the perforations.

3.4 Boundary Conditions

- Symmetric boundary conditions are defined for both edges of the 36*

1 drywell model for the static stress analysis as shown on figure 3 5.

-This allows the nodes at this boundary to expand radially outward frc:n 33

boundary from rotating out of the plane of symmetry. Nodes at the bottom edge of the dr/well are fixed in all directions to simulate the fixity of the shell within the contrate foundation. Nodes at the ends .

of the sand spring elernents and the header support spring elements are also fixed.

3.5 Loads The loads are applied to the drywell finite element model in the manaer which most accurately represents the actual loads anticipated on the drywell. Details on_the application of loads are discussed in the following raragraphs.

3.5.1 -Load Combinations ,

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 stretses in the sandbed t egion. Many of the design basis load combinations include high internal pressures which would create tensile stresses in the shell and help prevent buckling. The most severe design load combination identified for the buckling ahalysis of the drywell is the refueling condition (Case IV). This load combination consists of the following loads:

Dead weight of vessel, penetrations, compressible material, equipment supports and welding pads.

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 c*ondition 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.

NNX REV. 0 The most ' severe load combination for the emergency condition is for the post accident (tase VI) load combination including:

Dead weight of vescel, penetrations, compressible mat'erial and equipment supports Live load of personnel lock Hydrostatic Pressure of Water for Drywell Flooded to 74' 6" External Pressure of 2 psig ,

Seismic inertia and deflection luads for flooded condition The application of these loads is described in more detail in the following sections.

3.5.2 Gravity Loads

' he gravity loads include dead weight loads of the drywell shell,*

T weight of the compressible material and penetrations and live loads.

The drywell shall loads are imposed on the model by defining the weight- density of the shell material and applying a vertical acceleration of- 1.0 g to simulate gravity. The ANSYS program automatically distributes the loads consistent with the mass and acceteration. The compressible material weight of 10 lb/ft! is added by adjusting the weight density of the shell to also include the

-compressible material. The adjusted weight densities for the varions shell thicknesses are summarized on Table 3 5. The compressible material is assumed to cover the entire drywell shell (not including the vent) up to the elevation of the flange.

~

The additional dead weights, penetration weights and live loads are applied as additional nodal masses to the model. As shown on Table

-3 6 for the _ refueline case, the -total additional mass is summed for each 5 foot elevation of the drywell. The total is then divided by 10 for the 36' section assuming that the mass is evenly distributed around the perimeter of the drywell. The resulting mass is then

~

. applied uniformly to a set of nodes at the desired elevation as shown on Table 3 6. These applied masses automatically impose gravity loads.

on the drywell model with the defined acceleration of 19 The same 35

If X REV. 0 method is used to apply the additional masses to the model for the post accident, flooded case as summarized in Table 30. r 3.5.3 Pressure Loads

- 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  :

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

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 prestures are applied to the inside surface of the shell elemants.

3.5.4 Seismic Loads Seismic stresses have been calculated for the Oyster Creek Drywell in Part 1 of this report, Reference 3 3. Meridional stresses are imposed en the drywell during a seismic event due to, a 0.058" deflection of the reactor building and due to horizontal and vertical inertial ioads on the drywell.

The meridional stresses due to a seismic event are imposed on the 3 D drywell model by applying downward forces at four elevations of the 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 ,

equator, 3) 5.75' above the equator and 4) just above the knuckle  ;

region.- These four sections were chosen to most accurately represent i

the load distribution in the lower drywell while also providing a .

l raasonably accurate stress distribution in the upper drywell.

i 36

X REY. 0 To flad the correct loads to match the seismic stresses, the total r 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 ad 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 0 model in separate load steps at each elevation 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 unknowns, the ccrrect 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 310 and 3 11 for the refueling and post accident cases, respectively.

3.6 Stress Results ,

The resulting stresses for the two inad combinations desvaed 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 i shown in Figures 3 7 through 3 10. The red colors represent the most tensile stresses and the blue colors, the most compressive. Figures 3-7 and 3 8 show the meridional stresses for the entire drywell and lower drywell . The circumferential ' stresses for the same areas are shown en figures 3-9 and 3 10. The resulting average meridional stress at the mid elevation of the sandbed region was found to be; 1

arm = 7097 psi 9

'The application of all of the loads described for the post accident condition results in the stress distributions shown in Figures 311 through 3 14. The red colors represent the most tensile stresses anit the blue colors, the most compressive. Figures 's ll and 3-12 show the meridional stresses for the entire drywell and lower drywell. The circumferential stresses for the same areas are shown on Figures 313 and 3 14. The resulting average meridional ; tress et mid elevation of the sandbed region was found to be; oPAm " '9693 psi The circumferential stress averaged from the botton to the top of the sandbed region is; O pac = +4049 psi 38

b x N REV. 0 3.7 Theoretical Elastic Buckling Stress Results 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 elastic buckling loads and buckling mode shapes.

3.7.1 Refueling Condition Buckling Results As shown on Figure 3-15, it is possible for the drywell to buckle in two different modes. In the case of symmetric buckling shown on '

Figure 315, each edge of the 36' drywell model experiences radial displacement with no rotation. This mode is simulated by applying 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 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.

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 a concern outside of the sandbed region.

It is also possible for the drywell to buckle in the anti symmetric ,

manner shown in Figure 315. For this mode, the edges of the 3 D ,

model are allowed to rotate but are restrained from expanding radially. This case is considered by applying anti symmetric boundary l

conditions at the edges of the 3 D model. With the.two pass approach I used by ANSYS, it is possible to study anti-symmetric buckling of the l drywell when the stresses are found based on' symmetry tioundary conditions. The resulting load factor found using anti symmetric b'oundary conditions is 16.81. The mode shape for this case' is shown on Figure 3 17.

3-9 ,

hb[X REV. 0 Because the load factor is lower for symmetry boundary conditions 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 bei O Rie = 14.32 x (7097 psi) = 101,650 psi 3.7.2 Post Accident Condition Buckling Results Considering the post accident case with symmetry boundary conditions, the load factor was calculated as 9.91. Multiplying this load f actor by the applied stress from section 3.6.2 results in a theoretical elastic buckling stress of oPAie = 9.91 x (9693 psi) = 96,060 psi The critical mode shape for this condition is shown in Figure 318.

Again, the critical buckling mode is in the sandbed region.

4. ALLOWABLE BUCKLING ST .35 EVALUATION Applying the methodology described in Section 2 for the modification of the theoretical elastic buckling stress, the allowable compressive stresses. are now calculated. Tables 41 and 42 summarize the calculation of the allowable buckling stresses for the Refueling and Post Accident conditions, respectively. The modified capacity reduction factor: are first calculated as described in sections 2.2 and 2.3. After reducing the theoretical instability stress by this 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.

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. 1he allowable compressive stress for the Post Accident, flooded cast is 14.34 ksi. This results in a margin of 485; for the '

applied compressive stress of 9.69 ksi.

SUMMARY

AND CONCt.USIONS The results of this buckling analysis for the refueling and pos't-accident load combinations are summarized on Table 51. The applied and allowable compressive meridional stresses shown in. Table 51 are for the sandbed region which is the most limiting region in terms of buckliiig. This analysis demonstrates that the 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%

confidence projected thickness of 0.736 inches for the 14R outage.
