SECTION 1.0 l EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

- This report provides an evaluation of the Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station Unit 2 normal charging, alternata charging, auxiliary spray and cold leg safety injection lines for the effects of potential thermal loadings and cycling resulting from isolation valve inleakage into the Reactor Coolant System, as described in NRC Bulletin 88-08. This evaluation includes the development of bounding transients.and calculation of the effect of these transients on the integrity of the unisolable piping (i.e. the sections of piping between the Reactor Coolant System, or normal spray line, and the j immediate upstream check valve). 1 1

Stress, fatigue usage and fatigue crack growth evaluations were performed in order to determine the potential for cracks to occur, and the times required for cracks to propagate at the critical locations. (The critical locations were determined to be the check valve outlet welds on the charging, alternate

charging and cold leg safety injection lines, and the 6" x 2" sock-o-let on the auxiliary spray line.) Results of these evaluations indicated that the 5

crack initiation times from fatigue usage calculation are 10 years, 10 years and 7 years for charging, alternate charging and cold leg safety injection lines, respectively. Furthermore, from fatigue crack growth calculation, the minimum time required for crack propagation to 60% of the wall thickness is 1.2 years, 20 years and 7 years for the charging, alternate charging and cold leg safety injection lines, respectively. These times represent total time at power operation. Periods when the line is in service should not be included in the determination of time at power operation, since only isolated piping is of concern. (The auxiliary spray line fatigue evaluation resulted in a cumulative usage factor less than 1.0 for the design life, therefore fatigue crack growth evaluation was not performed for this line.)

Augmented inservice inspection intervals at the critical locations should be developed based on these results. All other welds in these lines should be inspected in accordance with standard ASME Section XI criteria.

. BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION

. Following the discovery of pipe cracks in the auxiliary lines of several

,' commercial nuclear power plants, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission issued Bulletir. 03-08 (Reference 1). Action item 1 of the bulletin requested uti'lities to ideot:fy unisolable piping conneti.ed to the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) which is susceptible to adverse temperature distributions (not considered in the design of the piping) that could be induced by leakage through isolation valves into the RCS (inleakage). TV Electric identified the following lines for Comanche Peak (Reference 2):

[

y.c..

Action Item 2 of the bulletin requested that utilities nondestructively 4

examine (NDE) the welds, heat-affected zones and high stress locations,

  • including geometric discontinuities of the identified piping to ensure that there are-no existing flaws. Since Comanche Peak Unit 2 has not yet begun operation, NDE was not warranted.

Action Item 3 requested that a program be implemented to provide continuing assurance that unisolable sections of piping connected to the RCS will not be subjected to combined cyclic and static thermal and other stresses that could cause fatigue failure during the remaining life of the unit. To this end, an evaluation has been performed to determine augmented inservice inspection intervals, based on fatigue usage and fatigue crack growth methodology, and assuming continuous stress cycling.

Augmented inservice inspection intervals based on conservative thermal loadings and fatigue crack growth analysis provides a strong technical justification to eliminate the need for continuous temperature monitoring of the charging, alternate charging, auxiliary spray and cold leg safety WPF1137J/021292:10 2-1 l

SECTION 3.0 OVERALL EVALUATION APPROACH e

Upon reviewing the monitoring results from Unit 1 for charging, alternate charging, auxiliary spray and cold leg safety injection lines for the period from March 15, 1990 to August 6, 1991, it was found that there was no evidence of valve leakage in the unisolable piping.

For the purposes of analysis and Bulletin 88-08 requirements, it was postulated that stress cycles occur continuously in the unisolable piping during plant operation, resulting from postulated isolation valve leakage.

(This valve leakage is censidered herein as a postulated condition and thould not be treated as a design condition).

The steps in the structural evaluation of the unisolable piping under the postulated valve leakage loadings are listed below: y 4 [

]a,ce Comanche Peak Unit 2 has not yet begun commercial operation. Given that the unit is new, and has experienced very little fatigue cycles, it is highly unlikely that cracks are present in the susceptible piping. Fatigue usage is calculated to determine the time required for crack initiation. Furthermore, fatigue crack growth is then calculated, [

4.1 Determination of Thermal Stratification loadina  !

)

There are two charging paths provided in the Comanche Peak design. The first '

is the normal charging line to the cold leg of RCS Loop 4; the second is the alternate charging line connected to the cold leg of Loop 1. During normal l plant operation, one of these-lines will be in service, with the other line isolated. When the line is 1solated, the postulated leakage can induce stress i cycling.

The source of postulated leakage is the outlet of the regenerative heat exchanger, which is-typically at [

]*** ' before entering the unisolable piping (i.e.,

the piping between the RCL branch connection and the adjacent check valve.

t Depending on leakage flowrate and insulation characteristics, it is possible i

for the leakage to' cool significantly over this distance, resulting in

-thermal stresses in the unisolable piping. [

] calculations were performed for both lines.

Heat transfer calculations were carried out to determine the leakage temperature as it enters the unisolable piping, [

SECTION 5.0 AUXILIARY SPRAY SYSTE1 EVALUATION l

. 5.1 Determination of Boundino Transient I I

The auxiliary spray line provides a flow path from the regenerative heat exchanger to the main spray line, and is isolated during normal plant operation. The connection to the main spray piping is essentially a 15'-6" riser, which branches into the bottom of the horizontal main spray line.

The source of potential leakage is the outlet of the regenerative heat

-exchanger, which is typically at [ ]d during normal plant operation.

The distance from the leakage source to the unisolable piping is about [

] ' d therefore the temperature of the leakage flow as it enters the unisolable piping may be substantially less than the source temperature, depending on leakage flowrate and insulation characteristics.

.- Since the unisolable piping is essentially a long vertical riser which extends down from the main spray line, it is expected that the inlet to the unisolable

< piping (the check valve outlet weld) will be at containment ambient temperature, without isolation valve leakage. Such a condition is commonly termed " cold trap." The te;aperature in other regions of the unisolable piping are determined [ ] from the main spray line temperature.

Should isolation valve leakage occur in the auxiliary spray line, it would enter the unisolable piping in the " cold trapped" region, and gradually heat up and disperse into the bulk fluid as it flowed upward toward the main spray connection. Stratification, in the general sense, does not occur in vertical pipes, therefore it is expected that the thermal loadings would be axisymmetric and relatively small.

5.2 litress Evaluation Since stratification does not occur for the leakage condition, global stresses are not affected. However, it was necessary to consider an additional transient at the 6" x 2" sock-o-let. This transient consisted of the effects of leakage water flowing from the auxiliary spray line into the main spray WPF1137J/021292:10 5-1

line. This transient was conservatively [

] A heat transfer analysis of the leakage transient was performed to determine the thermal transient effects for use in the fatigue calculations.

5.3 Fatiaue Evaluation As for the charging-and alternate charging lines, no credible mechanism exists to initiate and terminate auxiliary spray line isolation valve leakage.

Fatigue cycles are possible, however, during main spray operation, which creates turbulent penetration into the auxiliary spray line. (Typically, +.he

. main spray line is operated with a bypass flowrate of 1 to 5 gpm, in order to prevent thermal shock to the pressurizer spray nozzle during spray actuation.

This reduced flowrate results in essentially no turbulent penetration into the auxiliary spray line.)

The fatigue evaluation of the auxiliary spray line for postulated leakage was

..- performed based on the requirements of ASME B&PV Code (1979 Edition),Section III, Subsection NB-3653, for piping components. Fatigue usage factor was

- calculated at the 6 x 2" sock-o-let which connects the auxiliary spray line to the main spray line,[ ]

'each of the four RCS loops. During normal plant operation, these lines are isolated'from centrifugal charging pump pressure. Under postulated isolation valve leakage, the potential for stress cycling exists in the unisolable l piping sections.

In order to evaluate the effect of isolation valve leakage on the safety injection lines, plant monitoring data was reviewed for a plant which is known to have had valve leakage (Reference 8), and a leakage transient was developed based upon the most severe loading observed.
