1.0 INTRODUCTION

In September 1985, NUS conducted an atmospheric tracer study within the Building Complex of the Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP).

This report pro-vides the results of the field program.

The description of the site is presented in Section 2 The field program 1

description is discussed in Section 3.

The field data are presented in Sec-tion 4 Analyses of the data are described in Section 5, and Section 6 con-tains the conclusions.

References are described in Section 7, and a glos-sary is provided in Section 8.

An executive summary appears in Section 9.

The purpose of the study was to characterize the atmospheric dispersion between specific release points and ventilator system intakes within the Building Complex at the PNPP. The tracer study was conducted for The Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company under contract to NUS Corporation.

NUS Corporation subcontracted to Tracer Technologies of Escondido, California, for the release and measurement of tracer materials.

In the remainder of this section, the following are described:

o Objectives o Existing Dispersion Estimates 1.1 Objectives The atmospheric tracer study was conducted to characterize the atmospheric dispersion within the Building Complex at PNPP. The atmospheric dispersion is represented by normalized concentrations, Chi /0. Of concern is the value for a one-hour average for use in evaluating accident scenarios.

This value (applicable for 0 to 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />) is used to determine the dose received through the air pathway between the containment buildings and the Control Room as it affects the habitability of the Control Room.

The primary objective was to, demonstrate by measurement that a reduction in Chi /Qs would be appropriate relative to those estimated based on the generic 1-1 NUS COAPORATION

PY-CELERR-2076L t

Page8of167 l

Murphy and Campe (1974) methodology. The Chi /Os correspond to the atmo-spheric dispersion at the ventilation intakes for the Control Complex, which 4

supply air to the region around the Control Room.

1 1.2 Existing Dispersion Estimates 4

1 The " existing" dispersion estimates were those determined prior to this study. These estimates were calculated using the NRC-accepted methodology

{

of Murphy and Campe (1974), " Nuclear Power Plant Control Room Ventilation System Design for Feeting General Criterion 19."

Section B.1.b of the methodology was determined to be applicable to the Perry Control Room.

The existing dispersion estimates were determined in 1985 (Mitchell,1985) and were based on the seven year meteorological data set and the generic Murphy and Campe (1974) methodology:

The revised control room Chi /0s for CEI/PNPP are presented below.

The methodology employed was Murphy and Campe's " Nuclear Power Plant Control Room Yentilation System Design for Meeting General Criterion 19."

The seven year meteorological data base, described in the 1983 Annual Report (NUS-4536), was used:

5/1/72-4/30/74, 9/1/77-8/31/82. The Chi /Q values represented the worst case of those comprised of the combinations of Units 1 and 2 control room air intakes and Units 1 and 2 containments and vents.

The con-tainments and vents were treated as diffuse area sources in accordance with the Murphy and Campe methodology.

The controlling case was the combination of the Unit I control room receptor and Unit 2 containment source.

An occupancy factor nf one (1) was assumed throughout the duration of the accident for the purpose of these calculations.

Chi /0 (s/m3) For Time Af ter Accident 0-8 hrs 8-24 hrs 1-4 days 4-30 days 3.5E-3 2.lE-3 1.1E-3 2.3E-4 Note:

3.5E-3 = 3.5 x 10-3 Supplemental information on the application of the methodology was considered.

Based on the geometry of the plant layout, a determination was made of the wind direction sectors that could potentially affect a receptor 1-2 NUS COAPORATION

9 PY CELNRR-2076L Page 9 of 167 for a given source.

The following cases (consistent with Murphy & Campe) were examined:

Case 1: Unit 1 Containment to Unit 1 Control Room, sectors NNE-E; Case 3:

Unit 1 Containment to Unit 2 Control Room, sectors N-ENE; Case 5:

Unit 2 Containment to Unit 1 Control Room, sectors ENE-SE; Case 7:

Unit 2 Containment to Unit 2 Control Room, sectors NE-ESE.

Cases 2, 4, 6 and 8 were the same configurations as above except that the stack vent, rather than the containment, was the source.

No credit for momentum or buoyancy was included.

These were treated as point rather than diffuse-area sources. However, as presented in Murphy and Campe, the point-source methodology was not applicable to the Perry site geometry.

There-fore, only cases 1, 3, 5 and 7 were used in further evaluation.

Cumulative wind speed probability distributions were determined for the combined sectors of interest for each case. The speed distributions were based on the seven year Perry meteorological data base Joint Frequency Distribution (JFD) (5/1/72-4/30/74; 9/1/77-8/31/82) that is presented in Table 1-1.

The speed distributions were combined into a cumulative fre-quency distribution beginning with the lowest speeds.

The point of the lowest five percent of the wind speeds was identified: 95 percent of the speed occurrences were above the 5th percentile. The 5th percentile wind speeds were selected for input to the following equation (equation 6 from Murphy and Campe):

Chi /0 =

1 U[wa

+ a/(k+2)]

yz where:

Chi /0 = 0 to 8 hr relative concentration at the plume centerline (s/m3) 3 k=

stable) conditions (specified by Murphy and Campe) and the controlling 5th percentile wind speeds (in the range of 0.5 to 1.0 m/s, depending on the case examined) as prescribed by the methodology.

Thus, using the Murphy & Campe formulation, the controlling meteorological conditions for control room dispersion calculations are wind direction sectors N through SE,10-m wind speeds of about 0.5 to 1.0 m/s, and delta T (60m-10m) stability class of F.

Stability class refers to the description of atmospheric turbulence based upon measurements of temperature differential (delta T) over a vertical distance on the meteorological tower based on USNRC,1972:

A = Very unstable B = Moderately unstable C = Slightly unstable 0 = Neutral E = Slightly stable 1-4 NUS COAPORATION l

' -2076L Page 1I of 167 F = Moderately stable G = Very stable The Chi /Qs applicable throughout the course of the accident scenario were determined in accordance with Murphy and Campe.

Wind speed and wind direc-tion factors were determined from the seven-year JFD on the basis of obser-vations in the sectors that could result in an exposure.

The resulting fac-tors were applied to the 0-8 hour Chi /0 to obtain values for time periods out to 30 days.

The factors were as fellows:

Wind Speed Wind Direction Combined Time Period Factor Factor Factor 0-8 hrs 1.00 1.00 1.00 8-24 hrs 0.73 0.80 0.58 1-4 days 0.51 0.61 0.31 4-30 days 0.31 0.21 0.07 The literature indicated that the Murphy and Campe methodology may provide results that are overly conservative for a given application by a factor of 10 to 100 (Hosker, 1982).

Thus, the present study was conducted to deter-mine site-specific estimates for Perry.

i PY-CEIMRR-2076L Page 17 of167 2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION The Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP) is located approximately 45 miles northeast of Cleveland, Ohio, on the shore of Lake Erie.

The 10-mile radius of the PNPP is of low relief, of mixed use, and largely open, including fields, forests, agricultural and nursery activities, and buildings and towns. Additional discussion of regional topography can be found in the FSAR (1980), Section 2.3.2.3.

Figure 2-1 depicts the site plan on a topographic map, reproduced from FSAR Figure 2.3-15.

The shoreline is oriented approximately northeast-southwest, l

with Lake Erie to the north.

While the site boundary extends over a mile inland, the Building Complex is centered on the north side of the site.

l The plot plan of the Building Complex is shown in Figure 2-2, reproduced from Figure 1.2-2 of the FSAR (1985).

Near the center of the figure are the i

reactor buildings for Units 1 and 2 and the Control Complex.

These are l

located in the midst of many other adjoining and separate buildings.

The locations of the tall, natural-draf t cooling towers to the northeast are also depicted.

A close-up of the Building Complex within the vicinity of the reactor build-ings is shown in Figure 2-3.

This figure, reproduced from Figure 1.2-10

{

from the FSAR (1985), is an overhead view of the roof level.

The contain-ment vent stack for both units is located slightly outside (plant west) the region between the reactor buildings.

The air intakes to the Control Com-plex are shown farther to the west.

They are within approximately 60 m of the containments on the west face of the Control Complex.

(Figure 3-2 depicts some of those details more clearly.)

A side view of this region is provided in Figure 2-4, Section C-C, repro-duced from Figure 1.2-13 of the FSAR (1985).

The vent stack is separate from the reactor building, but reaches almost as high (to 750 ft.).

The air intakes for the Control Complex are not shown but are located about 200 feet to the lef t (plant west), halfway up the exposed face (of the Control 2-1 NUS COAPOAATION i

\\

Atttchment $

i PY-CEl/NRR-2076L Page13of167 Complex) that faces away from the reactor buildings (note the approximate location of these as illustrated in Figure 3-3).

i These air intakes are the only direct air pathway to the Control Complex for any airborne releases from the reactor buildings and stack vent.

The Con-trol Room is contained entirely within the Control Complex.

Thus, for the study, tracers were released from the :ontainments and stack and sampled at the intakes.

Refer to Section 3.2 for study details.
