. 140 INTRODUCTION 1.1' Backctround Eddy current inspection of steam generator tubes at Point Beach 2 during RFO U2R21 has resulted in the detection of numerous indications within the tubesheet region. These indications are predominantly identified as single or multiple axial indications (SAI or MAI) which require repair or plugging per the current plant technical specification. The indications are characterized as OD initiated intergranular attack (ODIGA) . and OD stress . corrosion cracks (ODSCC). Some indications have been characterized as IDSCC in the existing tube roll transitions.

Such indications represent well documented degradation mechanisms in RSGs. The occurrence of secondary side intergranular corrosion has been strongly correlated with the accumulation of sludge within the tubesheet crevice which is aggravated by the potential concentration of caustic from secondary system chemistry coupled with the boiling crevice conditions. IDSCC occurs in susceptible alloy 600 material under the combined action of primary water, elevated temperature, and sustained tensile stresses which exist in the roll transition region of the tubes.

The number of tubes with indications detected at PB-2 is such that removing all of them from service would produce unacceptable

, primary coolant flow rate through the steam generators. Thus, a l repair method is required to maintain the maximum number of tubes in service for continued operation. One such repair method is to

)

perform a tube roll expansion (repair roll) within the tubesheet bore above the existing degraded location.

1.2 Purcose The purpose of this document is to provide a technical I

, justification to implement a tubesheet region repair roll in degraded steam generator tubes at Point Beach 2. A re-roll or repair roll which is installed above the degraded region of tubing j provides a frictional joint of undegraded ' tubing within the I tubesheet bore, creating a new primary pressure boundary within the tube. The structural aspects of the repair must be demonstrated  ;

in accordance with NRC Regulatory Guide 1.121, by establishing an i engagement distance sufficient to withstand the greater of 3 times l normal operating dif ferential pressure or 1.43 times the worst i

faulted condition differential pressure. This engagement length is typically referred to as F* and conservatively assumes the tube can sever immediately below the F* rolled region. The leakage associated with the roll repair must also meet requirements for maintaining plant leakage within technical specification limits.

1.3 Oroanization of ReDort This report provides a description of the intended repair roll design for Point Beach 2. A verification of the design is presented through evaluation against [ c

). Consideration of differences between the [ c ] is included in the overall determination of an appropriate F*/ repair roll distance for Point Beach 2.

. 2.0 - EXECUTIVE StBGEARY Eddy current inspection of' steam generator tubes at Point Beach Unit 2 during RFO U2R21 has revealed numerous tubes with indications within the tubesheet region. These indications have j been characterized as axial defects which exceed the current  ;

plugging limit for the tubes. The indications have been l j predominantly attributed to corrosion attack in the crevice region I between the tube and tubesheet. Some defects are also associated with stress corrosion cracking of the tube roll transitions.

A process has been developed to repair these tubes, allowing them to remain in service. This tube repair roll process consists of creating a new, mechanical tube to tubesheet structural joint above the region of tube defects.

This type of repair [ c l

). l The qualification of the mechanical joint is based on establishing a- mechanical roll length, F*, which will carry all of the structural loads imposed on the tubes. A series of tests and l analyses were performed to establish this length. Tests that were performed included leak, tensile, locked tube, fatigue, ultimate load, and eddy current measurement uncertainty. The analyses evaluated plant operating and faulted loads in addition to tubesheet bow effects.

4 The final required repair roll length was determined to be [c]

which includes [c] for ECT uncertainty. However, the field process has been set to deliver a [c] nominal length ([c] minimum), for conservatism. The operational leak rates for 2000 repaired tubes

! is expected to be less that [ c ] GPD.

It is known that the tubes are susceptible to stress corrosion, thus the new roll transitions will eventually exhibit defects, as the existing roll transitions have. However, as experience at Point Beach 2 has shown, these defects are axial in nature and can be readily detected by eddy current inspection. Thus, there are no new safety issues with this repair.

]. Figure 3.1 provides a sketch of the repair roll.

The objective of the [ c ] roll is to achieve a [ c] inch effective expansion above any defects to satisfy F* requirements

[8.2 & 8.11). The field process nominal installation length for the repair roll is (

3.2 Installation The repair roll is performed remotely using a manipulator and a j standard plugging or sleeving type tool head. A control system is used to position and install the new roll expansion. The required torque is (

).

i 3.3 Process Verification Standard pre-repair roll eddy current techniques are used to identify candidate tube locations for repair and determine where the uppermost defect is located. After repair roll installation, bobbin profilometry or equivalent techniques are used to generate a plot which identifies the new roll expansion and roll length with respect to the existing defect and required F*. These techniques are also used to verify that there are no defects in the F* region.

'4.O~ DESIGN REQUIREMENTS .

4.1 General The US NRC Regulatory Guide 1.121 [8.5] and the ASME Boiler and i Pressure Vessel Code [8.6] prescribe safety factors of 3 on normal j operating and 1.43 on faulted condition differential pressure, '

j_ respectively. These factors provide the basis for. establishing a suitable F* repair length.at Point Beach 2 [8.2].

The repair roll shall be of sufficient length such that the expansion alone (without any support from the original tube expansion and weld below) provides the - necessary structural j strength to satisfy the normal and faulted tube loadings. j In addition, the roll shall-provide a mechanical seal between the i existing tube and tubesheet above the degraded region. The new I 4

joint shall provide leak limiting capability, assuming a full 360' j circumferential sever immediately below the new roll region. l

, Leakage must be maintained well below the technical specification limits for [ c -]. The technical specification leakage limit at Point Beach 2 is 500 GPD (0.35 GPM) for both steam.

differences used to bound operating and faulted conditions.

All of the critical physical design characteristics and materials of construction are equivalent and are summarized in Figure 5.1 [8.1] .

Because all the F* qualification testing was done at room temperature, the results of the testing must be adjusted to actual steam generator (SG) operating temperature and pressure conditions. An equation was derived to relate the results of room temperature testing to the (SG) operating conditions based on standard stress equations. The equation for F* length is derived by beginning with a relationship which defines the pull-out load for the outer surface of the rolled' joint between the tube OD and tubesheet bore. This pull-out load equation is defined as:

5.2.2 Tubesheet Bow {

l The effect of tubesheet bow, as previously mentioned, is I accounted for in the results of Table 5.2.1. Tubesheet bow tends to negate some of the joint holding force (radial stress) inherent from the rolling process, pressure tightening effects through hoop loading, and thermal tightening effects based on expansion differences of the tube and tubesheet materials. This reduction in radial stress is the result of tubesheet bore hole dilation caused by flexure of the tubesheet under a primary-to-secondary differential pressure.

s 5.3 Testino Mechanical tests were performed during the IP-2 F* qualification to evaluate various F* lengths at room temperature conditions. The test data was then corrected by the analysis to obtain the final F*

1ength for operating conditions as described in Section 5.4.

Tests performed consisted of leak and load testing, pressure and thermal cycling, and ultimate load tests. Normal operation, faulted, and locked tube conditions were simulated during testing. l A total [ c ] tested [8.2].

The applicability of the testing for PB-2 consists of evaluating the i operating pressure differentials to determine their effects on the leak and load test conditions. The PB-2 normal condition pressure i differential is [ c j i

5 . '5 ' Non-Destructive F_vamination Reauiramants The final F* criteria that is developed for PB-2 must also be inspectable using standard steam generator eddy current techniques.

Post-repair roll bobbin profiles are required to verify expansion, show the new roll transition (s) , and provide measurements of the new undegraded roll length for evaluation against F*. Measurement tolerances associated with remote eddy current measurements must be factored into the final F* value. Bobbin and RPC eddy current methods were both used to verify the accuracy and uncertainty in detennining F* lengths in 7/8" tubing [8.2]. This testing was performed to determine the error associated with the NDE method that will be used in the steam generator to define the actual locations of the defect and the roll transition.

Analysis was performed to determine the distance from the bottom end of the upper roll transition to the simulated F* sever. Each eddy current pull was analyzed two times, and a total of five analysts examined the data for an independent review and to determine differences among analysis techniques. [ c

6.0' EVALUATION OF REPAIR ROLL LIFE 6.1 Tube Integrity in Repair Roll The tube degradation mechanisms at Point Beach 2 have been characterized as ID PWSCC and OD IGA. These degradation mechanisms in the elevated stress regions associated with a roll transition can potentially limit the life of the repair roll.

Non-destructive eddy current examinations, laboratory examinations of pulled tube samples, and accelerated corrosion tests have all shown that PWSCC will occur in the roll transitions of alloy 600 tubing. An evaluation of PWSCC was performed which optimistically predicts the new roll transition will last as long as the original roll transition while pessimistic proj ections indicate cracks initiating within 2 EFPY [8.3]. [ c

).

1 Point Beach Units 1 and 2 use once-through cooling and initially, both units operated on phosphate water chemistry. Evaluation of leachate from tubesheet crevices at Point Beach indicate that the i impurities in the crevices were moderately alkaline f onning.

Examinations of removed tubes have indicated that caustic conditions caused, or at least initiated, IGA / SCC in tubesheet crevices. However, it is possible that caustic conditions were present during an early phosphate water chemistry period during which IGA / SCC initiated, and that the IGA / SCC then propagated under less alkaline conditions during AVT water chemistry.

Laboratory tests indicate that tensile stresses accelerate the rate of SCC, and moderately affect the rate of IGA. The operating temperature can also affect the corrosion rate in the roll transitions. For example, intergranular corrosion tends to occur mainly in the elevated temperature region of the hot leg versus the cold leg. This is evidenced at Point Beach Unit 1, where a reduction in hot leg temperature from 597F to 557F dramatically reduced the number of detected new defects. Therefore, the presence of the high stress area in the new roll transition, along with the high hot leg temperature (599F) do increase the possibility of OD intergranular corrosion (8.7]. [ c

).

In conclusion, a realistic prediction for time to cracking [

6.2' Tube Integrity Below the Repair Roll l c

], may promote "Obrigheim" denting of the tubes at some point in the future. The phenomena of "Obrigheim" denting occurs when an I annular space around the tube OD fills with water which is not l allowed to escape during plant heatup. The trapped water may be the result of a restricted path that becomes completely sealed by the difference in expansion characteristics between the tube and ,

tubesheet. During heatup, the trapped water expands creating a l dent in the tube large enough to reduce the yielding pressure.
