1.0 INTRODUCTION

The objective of this document is to outline the basis forjustifying that each of the valves included in the VEGP GL 89 10 program is be capable of performing its design-basis function. To support this objective the valves included in the VEGP GL 89-10 program have been divided into 30 valve groups as outlined in Table 1-

1. The valves in each group are identical with respect to manufacturer, type, size and pressure class. In certain cases the valve stems and/or the valve operators may be different; however, the internal construction of all of the valves within a i

specific valve group are identical.

The basis for many of the capabilityjustifications outlined in the VEGP GL 89-10 Design-Basis Capability Verification Report are founded largely in detailed engineering calculations performed utilizing conservative methodologies which have evolved over the course ofimplementing this program. The analytical methodologies have been validated based on an extensive in-situ differential pressure test program which included tests on 83 of the 256 valves included in the VEGP GL 89-10 program. In many cases the analytical methodologies being utilized were revised substantially based on the results of these tests. Although differential pressure tests could not be performed on valves from each of the valve groups, sufficient testing was performed on the various valve types to provide a high degree of confidence in the overall methodology.

i The most conservative basis for ensuring that a valve will be capable of performing its design-basis function is to test the valve under design-basis differential pressure conditions. In cases where valves have been differential pressure tested in-situ at VEGP these tests are the primaryjustifications for valve 4

capability. Tests of similar valves at other facilities also provide a strong basis for demonstrating capability, and in some cases credit has been taken for differential pressure testing performed by EPRI in conjunction with the Performance Prediction Program (PPP).

Although the in-situ differential pressure testing provides a basis for verifying the capability of tested valves, the primary objective of the VEGP differential pressure test program was to validate the analytical methodology utilized in the design review calculations. Validating the design review methodology in this manner allows non-tested valves to be evaluated analytically, and valve capability to be demonstrated based on calculated margins. A detailed discussion of the design review methodology, the differential pressure test results and the subsequent reconciliation of the differential pressure test results with the design review methodology is contained in the Program Summary Report.

O It should also be noted that the margins identified in this document are based on differential pressures which include consideration of valve mispositioning. It is anticipated that Supplement 7 to GL 89-10 will delete the requirement that valve 1-1

mispositioning be addressed in conjunction with GL 89-10 for PWRs. However, mispositioning differential pressures are included in the current VEGP calculations. In cases where margins are limited based on mispositioning differential pressures, credit is taken for the actual safety function differential pressure and is so noted.

(VD 2.0 ANCHOR-DARLING GATE VALVES There are a total of 20 Anchor-Darling gate valves included in the VEGP GL 89-10 program. The valves are all of the flex-wedge design and utilize carbon steel discs and valve bodies. The disc guide slot and body guides are also carbon steel and the disc face and body seats are hardfaced with Stellite. These valves have been divided into four groups ofidentical valves as outlined in Table 2-1.

The thrust requirements for the valves in group AD-3 were calculated with the Industry Standard Equation utilizing a 0.5 valve factor since the EPRI PPP methodology does not apply to air systems. This methodology is discussed in more detail in Section 3.3.1.1 of the Program Summary Report.

The Anchor-Darling valves are equipped with valve stems utilizing stub ACME threads and a stem friction coefficient of 0.20 was utilized in calculating the stem factors for these valves. The basis for utilizing a 0.20 stem friction coefficient for these valves is outlined in Section 9.6 of the Program Summary Report.

The opening and closing capability margins were calculated for each of the valves in these groups. In addition, for valves which are controlled in the closing direction by a torque switch, the closing setup margin is also included. The setup margin takes into account test equipment accuracy, torque switch repeatability and Load Sensitive Behavior and for the purposes of this document values of 10%,5% and 20% respectively were utilized to account for these uncertainties. In practice, the values utilized for test equipment accuracy and torque switch repeatability would be determined based on each specific valve setup.

Based on the priority 5 ranking the valves require differential pressure testing in the VEGP program. However, the valves were not differential pressure tested because the design-basis differential pressure is based on a thermal barrier tube rupture which can not be simulated for test purpcses.

The normal ACCW system pressure is less than 10% of the design-basis differential pressure for these valves, therefore, performing differential pressure tests on these valves would not have provided meaningful results.

2.4 Anchor-Darline Group AD-4 Valves This group is composed of six,4-0 inch,900 lb, Anchor-Darling gate valves.

Valves 1/2HV-3009 and 1/2HV-3019 are normally open and have a safety function to close to isolate a downstream line break in the steam supply piping to the auxiliary feedwater (AFW) pump turbine.

Open Differential Pressure Test Status These valves have a differential pressure test priority of 5 in the opening direction and 6 in the closing direction. Based on the priority 5 and 6 rankings these valves require testing in the VEGP program. Valves 1HV-3009 and 1/2HV-5106 have been differential pressure tested. In performing the differential pressure test on valve 1HV-3009 it was determined that this valve could not be tested at a significant differential pressure. There is a large volume of piping between valve 1HV-3009 and the AFW pump turbine, and due to the piping downstream of the valve, in combination with the flow restriction provided by the AFW turbine governor valve, the steam pressure downstream of valve 1HV-3009 decays very slowly after flow isolation. Due to the magnitude of the downstream pressure transient following flow isolation, the actual differential pressure at flow isolation is relatively low and difficult to determine with any degree of certainty. Valves 1HV-3019 and 1/2HV-3019 are utilized in identical applications to valve 1 HV-3009, therefore, these valves were not differential pressure tested due to the low differential pressure attainable under the test conditions.

Differential Pressure Test Status These valves have a differential pressure test priority of 4 in the opening direction and 3 in the closing direction. Based on the priority 4 ranking the valves require differential pressure testing in the VEGP program. However, the valves were not differential pressure tested because stroking the valves under a differential pressure would have allowed sodium hydroxide to enter the containment spray system. The discharge of the containment spray system is aligned to the RWST during surveillance testing and this contaminated water would have ultimately been pumped to the RWST.

Calculated Margins The opening margins were determined based on a design-basis differential pressure of 17 psid which is associated with the safety function of opening to admit sodium hydroxide to the containment spray system.

Valves 1/2HV-8924 are normally open to provide a flow path between the RHR pump discharge and the SI pump suction. The valves have a safety function to close to isolate a passive failure leak of 50 gpm or less during recirculation.

Differential Pressure Test Statm All of the valves in this group have a differential pressure test priority of 4 and all of the valves with the exception of 1/2HV-8471 A/B have been tested. Since these valves are all located in pump suction piping, to accomplish this testing the j

intemals were removed from a check valve to establish a return flowpath to the i

RWST. However, in the case of valves 1/2HV-8471 A/B this was not possible since these valves are located directly upstream of the CCP's and stroking these valves under flow conditions would have result in a loss of suction head and possible damage to the CCP's.

These are extremely conservative assumptions and result in a much higher calculated differential pressure than would normally be expected at these valves. The 430 psid differential pressure translated into calculated margins which are as low as 14% for these valves. However, these valves are stroked open after securing the RHR system during each unit start-up, thereby demonstrating their ability to open. In addition, the valves do not have an active safety function to open.

2. Based on conservative calculations of valve thrust requirements and operator capabilities valves 1/2HV-8840 have a closing setup margin of 1696%. These margins are adequate to ensure that these valves will be capable of performing their design-basis function.
3. Based on conservative calculations of valve tiuust requirements and operator capabilities valves 1/2HV-8701 A/B and 1/2HV-8702A/B have a closing margin of 55%. Considering the conservative differential pressure utilized in the calculations, these margins are adequate to ensure that these valves will be capable of performing their design-basis function. It should be noted that the required closing thrust for these valves was calculated based on a design-basis differential pressure of 425 psid which is the maximum RCS pressure for RHR system operation. The 425 psid differential pressure was assumed in the calculations for conservatism and to avoid the complexity of performing a dynamic evaluation of the closing differential pressures for these valves. When manipulating the valves in conjunction with a normal plant startup, the RHR 3-42

pumps are secured prior to closing these valves. Since the pumps are not running there is no flow in the RHR system, therefore, these valves are not exposed to any differential pressure when performing this function. With respect to isolating a leak downstream of these valves, the RHR system is considered a moderate energy system. The limiting failures which inast be considered are through-wall cracks which would result in minimal leakage. The resulting differential pressure would occur primarily across the crack, with only limited differential pressure present across these valve:. Therefore, the use of a differential pressure of 425 psid in evaluating these valves results in a calculated margin which is very conservative relative to the design-basis functions the valve is required to perform.

Differential Pressure Test Status Valves 1/2HV-5120,1/2HV-5122,1/2HV-5125 and 1/2HV-5127 have a differential pressure test priority of 5 in the opening direction and 5 in the closing direction. Valves 1/2HV-5132,1/2HV-5134,1/2HV-5137 and 1/2HV-5139 have a differential pressure test priority of 4 in the opening direction and 4 in the closing direction. The valves with a priority 5 ranking require testing in the VEGP program. However, based on Georgia Power's letter of December 2,1992 to the NRC the scope of valves to be tested in this group was reduced to a total of four valves. The justification for reducing the test scope was that globe valves are predictable performers and four valves would be sufficient to identify any

. problems within this group of valves. The purpose of reducing the scope was to maintain the total number of valves to be tested approximately constant while increasing the number of Westinghouse gate valves to be tested.

In addition, two of the priority 4 valves were substituted for two of the priority 5 valves. The priority 5 valves are located in the turbine-driven AFW systems and the priority 4 valves are located in the motor-driven AFW systems. The turbine-driven AFW discharge valves which were tested saw only limited differential pressures due to the relatively high steam pressure required in the steam p

generators to operate the turbine-driven AFW systems. The steam generator Q

pressure is present on the downstream side of the discharge valves, thereby limiting the differential pressure developed across these valves. The valves located in the motor-driven AFW systems could be tested at a much higher differential pressure since the steam generators could be depressurized when the testing was performed. The valves themselves are identical and the reason the priority rankings vary is due to the capability of the operators installed on the respective valves.

Calculated Margin The opening margins were determined based on a design-basis differential pressure of 1765,1767 or 1776 psid which is associated with the safety function of opening as required to control AFW flow.

Although the Velan valves have been divided into three groups based on the manufacturers stated valve size, the performance of all of the groups are similar.

The stated valve sizes are based on the diameter of the valve nozzle connections rather than the seat diameter. All of the valves utilize a nominal 1.875" seat O

diameter and, therefore, are essentially identical with respect to valve thrust V

requirements and overall performance.

The thrust requirements for these valves were calculated with the EPRI Performance Prediction Program (PPP) methodology for seat based globe valves.

This methodology is discussed in more detail in Section 3.3.1.4 of the Program Summary Report.

The Velan valves are equipped with valve stems utilizing standard ACME threads and a stem friction coefficient of 0.15 was utilized in calculating the stem factors for these valves. The basis for utilizing a 0.15 stem friction coefficient for these valves is outlined in Section 9.6 of the Program Summary Report.

Differential Pressure Test Status Valves 1/2HV-8103A,B,C&D have a differential pressure test priority of 6 in the opening direction and 6 in the closing direction. Valves 1/2HV-8814 and 1/2HV-8920 have a differential pressure test priority of 5 in the opening direction and 5 in the closing direction. Based on the 5 and 6 priority rankings all of these valves would require testing in the VEGP program. However, based on Georgia Power's letter of December 2,1992 to the NRC the scope of valves to be tested in this group was reduced to a total of four valves. The justification for reducing the test scope was that globe valves are predictable performers and four valves would be 5-5

O sufficient to identify any problems within this group of valves. The purpose of reducing the scope was to maintain the total number of valves to be tested approximately constant while increasing the number of Westinghouse gate valves to be tested. Valves lHV-8103B, lHV-8103C, lHV-8920 and iHV-8814 have been differential pressure tested.

Calculated Margins The opening margins for valves 1/2HV-8103A,B,C&D were determined based on a design-basis differential pressure of 2715 psid which is associated with recovering from mispositioning. These valves do not have an active safety function to open.

The opening margins for valves 1/2HV-8814 and 1/2HV-8920 were determined based on a design-basis differential pressure of 1521 psid which is associated with recovering from mispositioning. These valves do not have an active safety function to open.

1. Valves IHV-8103A/B, lHV-8814 and 1HV-8920 were differential pressure tested in-situ at VEGP and operated successfully. Only valve IHV-8920 had valid test data and this valve performed within the bounds of the thrust predicted by the EPRI Performance Prediction Program methodology. The actual closing thrust was 73% of the predicted value.
2. A total of eighteen additional Velan globe valves were differential pressure tested at VEGP and each of these valves operated successfully. Sufficient data was cellected in seventeen of the tests to evaluate the thrust requirements against the EPRI predicted thrusts and in all cases the test thrust requirements were bounded by the calculations.
3. Based on conservative calculations of valve thrust requirements and operator O

capabilities these valves have an opening margin of at least 140% and a closing 5-7

setup margin of at least 27% with the exception of valve 2HV-8814 which has a margin of 21%. These margins are adequate to ensure that these valves will be capable of performing their design-basis function.

It should be noted that valve 2HV-8814 is limited by the torque rating of the spring pack. With a stiffer spring pack this valve required a torque switch setting of 1 to fall within the design range of the valve. A lighter spring pack was installed and the valve was setup successfully with a torque switch setting of 2.

The torque switch setting of 2 indicates that substantial additional margin exists, although the valve appears to be spring pack limited when evaluated analytically.

.O There are a total of 70 Fisher butterfly valves in the VEGP GL 89-10 program.

The valves are of the non-symmetrical disc, single offset design. These valves have been divided into six groups ofidentical valves as outlined in Table 6-1.

Groups FB-5A and FB-5B rppear to be identical based on the criteria identified in the table, however, the valves in group FB-5A utilize 2 inch stems and the valves in group FB-5B utilized 2-1/2 inch stems. Since torque requirements vary as a function of stem diameter the valves were placed in separate groups.

O The torque requirements for these valves were calculated utilizing a combination of Fisher and EPRI NMAC methodology. The dynamic torque requirements were calculated utilizing the Fisher methodology while the packing loads were calculated utilizing the EPRI NMAC methodology. This methodology is discussed in more detail in Section 3.3.1.5 of the Program Summary Report.

The opening and closing capability margins were calculated for each of the valves in these groups. It should be noted that setup margins were not included for these valves although the opening and closing torque switches for these valves are currently in service. However, the opening and closing torque switches for these valves will be bypassed in conjunction with each valves next scheduled preventive maintenance or periodic test. In addition, certain valves will be repacked based on a revised packing configuration to ensure that the static loads for these valves are bounded by the packing loads utilized in the calculations. The margins outlined in this document reflect the bypassing of the opening and closing torque switches and the installation of the revised packing configuration as applicable. Section 6-2 of the Program Summary Report identified the valves to be modified and the associated schedules for these modifications.
