SUMMARY

OF NRC/IDCOR MEETING ON INTEGRATED ANALYSIS OF FISSION PRODUCT BEHAVIOR - AUGUST 28-29, 1984 This memorandum is a summary of the fourth meeting between NRC and the In-dustry Degraded Core Rulemaking Program (IDCOR) held in Rockville,-Md. which dealt with integrated analysis of fission product behavior. A summary of the principal technical results of this meeting are described in Enclosure i. A meeting agenda and a list of attendees are included as Enclosures 2 and 3, respectively.

The technical presentations covered (a) some containment load issues from the May 1984 meeting that needed additional attention from both the staff and IDCOR, (b) fission product reemission and resuspension, (c) fission product release and transport as modeled by IDCOR, and (d) releases to the environment from selected sequences for four plants representing four containment types.

The plants were: Zion (large, dry); Peach Bottom (Mark I); Sequoyah (ice con-denser); and Grand Gulf (Mark III).

At the end of the meeting, summary presentations were given by NRC and IDCOR contractor representatives, in which both parties outlined the principal areas of agreement and disagreement for the PWR and BWR plants and sequences analyzed and discussed at.the meeting. Enclosure 4 contains viewgraphs from the summary talks. Enclosure 5 contains viewgraphs from all other technical presentations.

Several days after the conclusion of the meeting, IDCOR requested that its comments on NRC contractor summary points be included with this meeting summary; the comments are included as Enclosure 6.

Although the meeting resulted in general agreement between NRC and IDCOR that the release of fission products to the environment is significantly less than calculations in the Reactor Safety Study, the meeting summary presentations highlighted several areas of disagreement and several issues requiring further study. The main points of technical disagreement are briefly summarized in Enclosure 1.

The Industry Degraded Core Rulemaking Program (IDCOR) is an effort on the part of nuclear utilities to develop the technical basis for determining whether changes in regulatory requirements are needed to reflect severe accident considerations. The NRC has recognized the potential benefit of factoring the IDCOR methods and results into the agency's decision process on severe accidents. A series of meetings has been arranged for NRC to examine and evaluate IDCOR's methods, assumptions and results. The purpose of this interaction is to take advantage of the technical programs and infor-mation developed by IDCOR, understand the bases, and identify what use we can make of the results.

. The first three meetings, held in Harpers Ferry, W. Va., Hunt Valley, Md., -

and Rockville, Md. concentrated on the fundamental physical and chemical -

processes governing accident progression, containment loading, fission product behavior, and integrated analyses of containment-loads for a variety of plants and accident sequences.

The next technical exchange meeting, tentatively scheduled for November 1984, will concentrate on (1) integrated risk analyses (probability times consequences), (2) operator procedures for accident mitigation, and (3) MARCH /MAAP comparisons.

SUMMARY

OF THE PRINCIPAL TECHNICAL RESULTS 10COR/NRC MEETING AUGUST 28-29, 1984 The August 28-29, 1984 meeting between IDCOR and NRC focused on the integra- 'J

. ted analyses of severe accident fission product behavior.

Several of the containment performance issues identified as areas of disagree-ment at the NRC/IDCOR technical exchange meeting of May 15-17, 1984 were also discussed. The principal issues discussed were: hydrogen production and combustion, core / concrete interactions, and sensitivity analysis. Based on these discussions, there is a better understanding of the technical differences and their bases between IDCOR and the NRC contractors and consultants.

IDCOR analyses of specific sequences for four representative plants

  • were per-formed using the MAAP 2.0 code. This code includes natural circulation in the primary system, incorporates codes previously used as stand-alone codes (FPRAT and RETAIN), and incorporates an aerosol deposition correlation, which is discussed below. The NRC contractor results for the same four plants are
  • Zion with a large dry containment, Peach Bottom with a Mark I containment, Sequoyah with an ice condenser containment, and Grand Gulf with a Mark III containment. ,

Enclosure 1

J 3o extracted from calculations presented in the BMI-2104 document on source term evaluation, which was published in draft form in July 1984.

The updated version of MAAP contains a new empirical aerosol deposition correlation to account for agglomeration and settling of aerosols. A sedi-mentation rate is. applied based on a single parameter, aerosol concentration.

~

Two fitted constants have been determined from experiments and compared with other experiments. Water absorption by hygros.copic materials is included.

This model was criticized by the NRC contractors during the summary presenta-tions for not including a dependence on other known important factors (e.g. , particle size) and was further criticized for lack of a wide range of comparisons to experiments.

IDCOR has concluded that resuspension of settled fission products will not be important. Reevolution is calculated in MAAP based on partial pressure differ-ences and convective flows. Similarly, the TRAPMELT code, used by the NRC con-tractors, has been changed to include reevolution using Raoult's Law (basically the same mechanism) and the deposited fission product beta and gamma energy.

For both IDCOR and BMI-2104 calculations, sequence-dependent distributions (by nuclide in some cases) of fission products within the plant are included in the viewgraphs of the technical presentations. In several cases, different assump-tions were made concerning the specifics of the sequence definition. This is important to recognize in any comparison of the ultimate distributions, as .

stressed by both IDCOR and NRC contractors in their presentations and summaries.

'd' tions in Enclosure 5.

Zion For Zion, IDCOR evaluated the station blackout event with and without a pump seal LOCA, with a purge line open, and the V sequence. Containment failure was calculated at about 30 hours3.472222e-4 days <br />0.00833 hours <br />4.960317e-5 weeks <br />1.1415e-5 months <br /> for the TMLB and was assumed from the beginning

~

for the open purge valve and V sequence cases. IDCOR found a sensitivity to .

assumed vapor pressure for Cs0H, the correlation parameters in the aerosol model, and the hole size at containment failure. Except for the case of a large hole size at failure or the case of failure to isolate (open purge line), releases to the environment were calculated to be of order 10 -3 or less (noble gas release fractions are always close to unity and are not further discussed in this summary). For CsI and Cs0H, for a 0.5 square foot containment failure or failure to isolate containment, releases were of order 2x10-2; releases of other particulate nuclides were <10 -3 . A sensitivity study to thermal hydraulic parameters was performed with trivial sensitivity shown except to changes that altered the sequence or where a parameter change revealed a model weakness by giving erroneous results (e.g., core slump model).

t During the summary discussions, the NRC contractors stated the belief that the uncertainties were "much larger than the IDCOR sensitivity studies are indi-cating." The BMI-2104 results for Zion were for a small break LOCA and the station blackout. The calculations were not carried out until overpressure failure was confirmed or denied. However, they were continued long enough to see that, at the rate of change of pressure with time, if the failure occurred, ,

it would be at extremely long times after the start of the sequence. The base-mat melt-through failure was evaluated instead with releases to the environment

o s .

~4 of CsI, Cs0H, and Te of order 10 or less. For isolation failure (comparable to an open purge valve) the releases of Cs and I were of order 10 -2 . Because of the assumption of Te release from the core / concrete interaction, its release fraction to the environment was calculated to be 0.2.

Peach Bottom $

For Peach Bottom, IDCOR evaluated the ATWS, small break LOCA with injection

-failure, and the transient with no makeup and failure to remove decay heat sequences. The containment failure times varied from 12 to 23 hours2.662037e-4 days <br />0.00639 hours <br />3.80291e-5 weeks <br />8.7515e-6 months <br /> (sequence dependent) from overtemperature and were attributed to failure of components that provide the containment boundary. Release fractions for Cs and I ranged from 0.01 to 0.07, Te from 0.02 to 0.09, with other nuclides of order 10 -4 and less. For the transient sequence with failure to remove decay heat, but with early injection, IDCOR assumed that injection would fail at containment failure only for containment failure sizes large enough to fail the pumps via dynamic response. This assumption is based on tests performed by General Electric that show operability of pumps in the environment following a small i

size failure of the containment. In contrast, previous calculations have assumed that any failure of the containment for this sequence would cause l

injection failure. Cs and I release fractions were calculated to be of the l-same order as given above.

l l

l The station blackout event was also analyzed for different assumptions of the l

area over which core / concrete reactions could take place. Although minor ,

details varied, containment failure time (about 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br />) and Cs and I release fractions (0.07) were unchanged. A sensitivity analysis for thermal hydraulic

.o e o parameters similar to that for Zion was performed with similar results. It was noted following this presentation and reiterated in the summary presen-tation by the NRC contractors that extraordinary operator actions'were assumed for the analyses of this plant. The IDCOR response was that the operator actions only shift the time scale of the accident, but do not change the release fractions. -

The evaluations in BMI-2104 were for the ATWS, the large break LOCA with loss of injection, and the transient with failure of decay heat removal sequences.

For the large break LOCA, containment failure was calculated to be at about 30 minutes, with release to the environment of about 30% of the Cs and I and about 60% of the Te. The releases for a;. ATWS sequence with failure into the reactor building were about 10% of the Cs and I and about 25% of the Te. As expected, releases directly to the environment are larger: about 20% of the Cs and I and about 40% of the Te. For the transient with failure of heat removal and release directly to the environment, the release fraction for Cs and I is about 5% and for Te is about 20%.

i Sequoyah l

, For Sequoyah, the differences between IDCOR and BMI-2104 results are due in large measure to hydrogen treatment. As discussed above, the positions on hydrogen generation and burning are unchanged from the previous meeting in Rockville (May 1984). IDCOR analyzed nine sequences: four representing con-tainment failure by overpressure and four sequences for which containment .

failure is not predicted. The last sequence is an open purge'line sequence and represents the largest release fractions: about 2% of the Cs and I and

e s +

0 about 0.5% of the Te. For other sequences, the release fractions are 10 -3 or less.

The results presented from BMI-2104 were for three sequences: station blackout, small break LOCA with recirculation failure, and transient with failure of ,

secondary side heat removal. For the station blackout, if the containment fails by ignition of hydrogen as the molten core exits the vessel, and for the small break LOCA case, release fractions are about 2%. However, if ignition does not occur in the station blackout sequence and containment failure is by (delayed) overpressure, release fractions are about 10 -3 or less. The transient with failure of secondary side heat removal is calculated to have release fractions less than 1%, decades less in the case of delayed overpressure failure.

Grand Gulf For Grand Gulf, the differences are again due to hydrogen treatment. 10COR

! analyzed four sequences and three were reported from BMI-2104. Both analyses l

l included significant credit for suppression pool fission product scrubbing.

i

[ The techniques for taking scrubbing into account were different. IDCOR used one of two constant values depending ~on pool depth (release through x quenchers or vents), while a more elaborate model was used in the BMI-2104 calculations, depending on several parameters that vary over the course of the sequence.

l- 10COR assumed a nominal pool bypass until vessel failure (affecting only the ,

large break LOCA sequences). Subsequent to vessel failure, the bypass path has j

been previously evaluated to be blocked by aerosol particles. For all sequences, t

z> ,e o

. e*; .

releases were found to be of order 10 -3 and less.

The results from BMI-2104 include evaluation of the small break LOCA with

, failure of injection, with also a nominal bypass of the pool, and with an open bypass path (vacuum breaker assumed to be open). For the through pool cases, -

environmental releases were of order 10 -2 to 10 ~3 For the nominal bypass case, releases were slightly higher. For the large bypass case, Cs and I releases

-3 were of the order of 10 but Te releases were of about 10%.

In addition to the areas of disagreement already discussed above, there remains a disagreement on the Te-Zr reaction. IDCOR assumes that the Te is released in-vessel with the volatile nuclides, while the results in BMI-2104 are based on the model that relates Te retention in the core to the' amount of unoxidized Zr. Retention with the core material allows for Te release at the time of Zr oxidation during concrete attack.

The summary viewgraphs from both IDCOR and NRC contractor presentations have

. been included as Enclosure 4.

1. AEROSOL MODEL NRC CONTRACTORS AND STAFF HAVE SIGNIFICANT RESERVATIONS ABOUT THE FAI AEROSOL MODEL, PARTICULARLY FOR USE WITHIN THE RCS:

~,

THE CORRELATION DOES NOT' INCLUDE EFFECTS AND PARAMETERS KNOWN TO BE IMPORTANT FROM OTHER. STUDIES (E.G., AN EXPLICIT TREATMENT OF SIZE DISTRIBUTION)

THE AGREEMENT SHOWN WITH EXPERIMENTAL DATA IS NOT COMPELLING BECAUSE OF THE SIMILARITY OF THESE EXPERIMENTS TO THE CORRELATION DATA BASE AND, FOR THE WET EXPERIMENTS, THE NEED TO SET TUNABLE PARAMETERS s

COMPARIS0N WITH EXPERIMENTS AT DIFFERENT SCALES OR WITH MORE RIGOROUS MODELS WOULD HELP TO DISPEL SKEPTICISM NRC CONTLK; TORS

2. REVAPORIZATION MODELING THE NRC CONTRACTORS AND STAFF AGREE THAT REVAPORI-ZATION IS IMPORTANT.

THE IDCOR MODEL IS VERY SIMPLISTIC AND IT IS UNLIKELY

! THAT IT PRODUCES REALISTIC PREDICTIONS OF THE TIMING l _

AND EXTENT OF RELEASE FROM SURFACES. ALTHOUGH THE - -

ENVIRONMENTAL RELEASE TERMS OBTAINED BY THE IDCOR ANALYSES WERE FOUND TO BE SMALL FOR THE ACCIDENT SEQUENCES ANALYZED, THE SIMPLIFIED TREATMENT OF RCS BEHAVIOR MAY BE UNACCEPTABLE WHEN MORE REALISTIC ASSESSMENT IS MADE OF RETENTION EXTERNAL TO THE RCS OR TO RCS THERMAL-HYDRAULIC BEHAVIOR, 3, RESUSPENSION MODELING

PLANT ANALYSIS ,

THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENCES IN RESULTS. IT IS NOT CLEAR YET TO WHAT EXTENT THESE ARISE FROM DIFFERENCES IN MODELING VERSUS ACCIDENT SEQUENCE DEFINITION. IN THOSE CASES WHERE THERE IS APPARENT AGREEMENT, IT MAY BE FORTUITOUS, BASIC ASSUMPTIONS ON ACCIDENT SEQUENCE DEFINITION CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. THERE IS AN APPARENT LACK OF CONSISTENCY IN THE IDCOR TREATMENT OF HUMAN BEHAVIOR.

THIS SHOULD BE A SUBJECT OF DISCUSSION AT THE NEXT MEETING.

FOLLOWING COMPLETION OF MARCH-MAAP COMPARISON CALCULATIONS AT'BCL, INTERACTIONS WITH IDCOR STAFF WOULD HELP TO UNDER-STAND DIFFERENCES.

THE IDCOR MARK I RESULTS DEPEND HEAVILY ON THE RETENTION CAPABILITY OF THE REACTOR BUILDING. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT OUR UNDERSTANDING 0F THE FAILURE MODES OF THE PRIMARY

- CONTAINMENT AND THE REACTOR BUILDING, SIMILARLY, THE PWR V SEnUENCE RESULTS RELY HEAVILY ON RETENTION IN THE AUXILIARY BUILDING.

WE BELIEVE THE TREATMENT OF DRYWELL LEAKAGE AND POOL BYPASS IN THE MARK III CASES IS INADEQUATE.

e While other reactions may occur at high temperatures, there is no apparent cutoff due to high steam partial '

pressures.

l e incorporated the Westinghouse flame temperature correlation based upon measurements with high steam partial pressures. Containment responses are insensitive to large variations in the flame temperature.

e incorporated natural circulation between the primary system and containment after vessel failure including Hg-s Containment analyses do not demonstrate H2 concentrations sufficient for detonation in any I compartments.

a o RESUSPENSION e Material layers deposited on vertical surf aces would be very thin. Typical gas velocities associated with primary system or containment failure would be -

~

insufficient to overcome attractive forces.

e Materials dissolved in water and subsequently dried would be caked on the surface and would not be resuspended.

e Liquids or hygroscopic materials would stick to the surface and not be resuspended.

l e

Debris beds accumulated in either the primary system or the containment would not be sufficiently deep to be dispersed by the depressurizati~on followl'ng f ailure.

o Debris beds accumul~ated near a f ailed penetration l would not experience velocities sufficient for L entrainment.

REEVOLUTION OF FISSION PRODUCTS e Considered resuspension of particulate l'ayers deposited within the primary system and ,

containment.

e Calculate revaporization of deposited materials due to partial pressure differences and the convective flows.

e inert materials are not revaporized - a conservatism in the analyses.

e Solution chemistry is currently not credited -

i also a conservatism in the current analyses.

T/H UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS:

Conclusions In the context of the MAAP models, essentially .

no important sensitivities of bottom-line results to input parameters with ~a few exceptions:

Category 1: Change in input value altered sequence definition, (e.g. sprays come on due to parameter change).

9 Category 2: Parameter change reveals a fundamental weakness in a model by giving erroneous i results, (e.g. core slump model).

PEACH BOTTOM TW SEQUENCE o WASH-1400 assumed core injection systems f ailed at containment f ailure.

e Recent IDCOR Task 23.1 report analyzed TW with a .

- small containment failure area with same assumption -

on pump f ailure.

e Recent GE qualification tests indicate that pumps will operate in a steam environment.

e IDCOR case would indicate that with a small containment failure area the pumps would not fall due to steam environment and therefore not lead to core degradation.

e IDCOR has performed analyses on TW assuming pump f ailure associated with containment f ailure areas sufficiently large to potentially challenge core injection via dynamic response of the drywell or suppression pool.

f RESULTS FROM BWR-MAAP THERMAL-HYDRAULIC UNCERTAINTY / SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS

From a large set of single parameter variations the _

following was demonstrated.

Peach Bottom - S 3E

! e There is sensitivity to the core blockage phenomena on core recovery with limited CRD flow.

Grand Gulf - T jQUV w/o ADS e If corium is dispersed into drywell then there is less concrete ablation in pedestal and a longer calculated time to containment failure.

o The absence of core blockage allows increased Zr

oxidation and increased in-vessel hydrogen k .

T/H UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS:

Conclusions In the context of the MAAP models, essentially no important sensitivities of bottom-line results to input parameters with a few exceptions:

Category 1: Change in input value altered sequence definition, (e.g. sprays come on due to parameter change).

Category 2: Parameter change reveals a fundamental

-3 weakness in a model by giving erroneous results, (e.g. core slump model).

TECHNOLOGY for ENERGY CORPORATION September 7,1984 Mr. Robert Bernero, Director Division of Systems Integrations U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555 I

Dear Bob:

Comments on NRC Comments at IDCOR/NRC Meeting 38-Integrated Analysis of Plant Response -

Rockville, Maryland, August 28-29, 1984

The comments made by the two NRC summary teams at the end of meeting 3B were not available to us prior to their presentations. Therefore, 3 we could only comment on them orally.

We feel that the record, which includes the viewgraphs used at the meeting, should contain our comments on the NRC comments.

Enclosed are our item-by-item comments. The NRC comments are copied from the sumary teams' viewgraphs; the IDCOR comments follow each item.

Please include these in the meeting minutes.

Sincerely,

!'1 ; ,

IDCOR COMMENTS ON NRC C0pmENTS IDCOR/NRC TECHNICAL EXCHANGE E ETING 38-INTEGRATED ANALYSIS OF FISSION PRODUCT BEHAVIOR - ROCKVILLE, M , AUGUST 28-29, 1984 ,

1. Conta'inment Loads Summary 1.1 In-Vessel Hydrogen Production NRC:

Difference -

Hydrogen generation differs by factors of 1.4 to 10.0 because of blockage i assumptions, lack of downward radiation heat transfer and the short  ;

time between slump and vessel failure Significance Affects probability and timing of containment failure IDCOR:

IDCOR analyzed downward radiant heat transfer to the pool and found it to be insignificant.

IDCOR feels that their analysis of vessel melt though, taking into consideration the effects of welds in vessel penetrations, is correct.

The time during which the debris is in the lower head, generating steam, affects the amount of hydrogen produced by zircaloy oxidation in the core remaining above. IDCOR feels that when molten debris collects and refreezes in the interstices between the fuel rods, a blockage effect exists where some of the steam arising from the debris (which had fallen into the pool of water in the lower head) is prevented from reaching some of the unreacted zircaloy in the remaining sections of the core above. The exact configuration of the blockage and the flow patterns around it are very difficult to predict, but we feel that this effect should not be ignored.

1.2 Hydrogen Combustion Behavior NRC:

Difference -

Flame temperature criteria used prevents high hydrogen concentration.

Natural circulation of gases from cavity to containment causes more complete burning. .

Significance ,

Major difference in prediction of containment pressure (early vs.

late containment failure). Important for ice condensors.

T Page 2 IDCOR:

  • IDCOR feels that high temperatures are a valid ignition source for hydrogen, and that natural circulation of gases from cavity to containment will occur. These effects combine to prevent high hydrogen concentrations from being attained, followed by globa.1 burns. This is a more accurate representation of the physical facts than that of models where~these effects are not recognized.

1.3 Mode of Melt Ejection NRC: -

Differences CLWG uses a coherent release of all core melt available at vessel failure.

IDCOR relocates core sequentially as regions slump.

Significance -

This results in different initial conditions for core-concrete interactions, preventing ablation attack on liner and limiting melt available for direct containment heating consideration.

IDCOR:

IDCOR models of sequential core melt-through through penetrations, which have much shallower welds than the vessel head itself, appear to be more realistic tnan a coherent release of all core melt available at vessel failure. Direct containment heating in the IDCOR reference plants is not of concern because of structural configurations which prevent material from being ejected into the large containment volume.

Other plants may require individual analyses for this effect.

Liner failure generally is a small leak, which in some cases would be self sealing; for cases where it may not, IDCOR's impaired containment calculations represent the cases of early containment failure.

1.4 Core / concrete Interactions NRC:

Differences IDCOR model results in thick insulating crust between melt and concrete. .

Corcon model results in thinner, les3 stable crusts.

! Interaction with overlying water pool t '

No further oxidation of metal component of melt IDCOR:

Although IOCOR's core concrete interaction model is quite simple, we feel it is adequate in the context of the overall accident analysis.

In particular, upward heat flux is taken into consideration. In fact, IDCOR first discovered the direct heating effect for debris that could fail the drywell in BWR Mark I's by overtemperature.

1.5 Steam Explosions NRC: '

Positions unchanged since Harper's Ferry meeting NRC will organize an experts group to review the issue. Meeting is l planned for October 1984.

l.l IDCOR:

l NRC held a steam explosion experts' meeting about three years ago under the chairmanship of Dr. L. S. Tong. EPRI had a task force study the issue and a report was issued in 1982. IDCOR Task 14 report was published in 1983. The Germans and French have evaluated the problem.

Further, the issue was discussed at Harper's Ferry, and the agreement reached that although differences of opinion exist about detail, steam explosions sufficiently energetic to fail containment are so unlikely that they need not be considered in severe accident analyses.

Page 4 1.6 Direct Heating of Containment .

NRC:

Difference NRC considers heating as a result of pressure ejection of core debris from vessel and dispersal out of cavity. Interest based upon results-of SNL tests.

IDCOR neglects based upon ANL tests.

Significance ._

Possibility of early containment failure either by direct heating along or in concert with hydrogen.

IDCOR:

See previous discussion under melt ejection.

1.7 Sequences Definition NRC:

Difference

! The importance of sequence definition is recognized by both NRC and IDCOR.

Significance This is an extremely important issue and can influence progression of core melt and mode and timing of containment failure.

IDCOR:

We agree.

1.8 Sensitivity - Uncertainty Analysis NRC:

Differences

- IDCOR study based upon incomplete set of parameters

- Does not include variation of parameters based upon engineering judgment

- Effects of varying more than one parameter per case not examined.

Page 5 .

Significance Conclusions of the study are difficult to accept without a more complete examination of input parameters and underlying modeling assumptions and their range.

IDCOR:

IDCOR feels that uncertainty and sensitivity analysis are important and should be done properly. IDCOR did indeed vary parameters based on engineering judgment. We do not think that it is either feasible or necessary to vary all possible combinations of parameters. This ._

would require an astronomical, number of computations. In fact, we J used engineering judgment to reduce the number of parameters to be varied. We also feel that it is inappropriate to allow parameters

, to vary beyond the limits of physical reality.

2. Severe Accident Analysis Models Summary ,

2.1. Aerosol Model NRC:

NRC contractors and staff have significant reservations about the FAI aerosol model, particularly for use within the RCS:

- The correlation does not include effects and parameters known to be important from other studies (e.g., an explicit treatment of~ size distribution)

~

1

- The agreement shown with experimental data is not compelling .

because of the similarity of these experiments to the correlation -

{e data base and, for the wet experiments, the need to set tunable parameters.

3 Comparison with experiments at different scales or with more rigorous models would help to dispe,1 skepticism.

IDCOR:

IDCOR's assessment of detailed aerosol models convinced us not to use them. Therefore, we developed empirical correlations based on relevant experiments. In fact, the detailed models have more tunable parameters than the IDCOR empirical correlation which has none.

We feel that the IDCOR model is a valid engineering approach and adequate for our purposes.

2.2 Revaporization Modeling NRC:

The NRC contractors and staff agree that revaporization is important.

The IDCOR model is very simplistic and it is unlikely that it produces realistic predictions of the timing and extent of release from surfaces.

i Although the environmental release terms obtained by the IDCOR analyses l were found to be small for the accident sequences analyzed, the simplified j, treatment of RCS behavior may be unacceptable when more realistic

.! assessment is made of retention external to the RCS or to RCS thermal-j1 hydraulic behavior.

IDCOR:

IDCOR first discovered revaporization in the context of severe accidents.

Although our model is simple, it probably is conservative. In the l
absence of further experimental data involving, e.g., possible chemical .

i reaction of Cs0H with structural surfaces, we feel that adding sophistication to the model is not warranted.

+< , , .

~

Page 7 2.3 Resuspension Modeling NRC:

Although we feel that there is some potential for resuspension within the RCS that should be resolved, we agree with the IDCOR approach to ignore resuspension from the RCS and containment with the current level of understanding.

IDCOR:

We agree. However, we did not simply ignore the issue. IDCOR analyzed the phenomenon of resuspension and performed some experiments to support our conclusions.

.. 2.4 Tellurium Release i

NRC:

The IDCOR modeling of tellurium behavior does not recognize experimental data indicating that a large component of the tellurium inventory would remain with the core material and be released during concrete attack.

10COR:

The IDCOR approach is consistent with the state of knowledge that l- existed at the time the Task 11.1 .4 .5 reports were written.

However, IOCOR will perform a sensitivity analysis of the effect on ultimate fission product release of differing as'sumptions with respect to tellurium behavior. The question concerns whether it is released at the time of fuel failure as 10COR supposes, or whether it reacts I with zircaloy and is released later at the time of core debris interaction with concrete. We feel that the difference is not particularly significant for cases where containment failure occurs late in time.

2.5 Chemical Reactions of Fission Products

, NRC:

The 10COR analyses ignore the potential for chemical reactions that could change the chemical forms of fission products and affect their subsequent transport, such as:

Reactions with control materials

- Formation of methyl iodide

- Radiolysis ,

Radiation effects Reactions with surfaces Oxidation at high temperature

4.

r, s

Page 8 Although some of these effects may not be very large, they may dominate -

sequences with small release fractions as analyzed by IDCOR.

IDCOR:

IDCOR recognizes that insufficient experimental data exists to make detailed analyses of these effects, which, as stated by-the NRC spokesman', have not been od'ne by NRC, either. We do not think that these effects'would have sufficiently large impacts to affect conclusions with respect to risk. In other words, small releases would remain small, although their values might be different.

~

2.6 Core Concrete Release i NRC:

From our analyses we believe the release of fission products and aerosols during core-concrete attack is important. IDCOR's approach needs clarification.

IDCOR:

IDCOR will clarify.

't 2.7 Pool Scrubbing NRC:

We disagree with the approach. The DF's selected are conjectural.

The state-of-the-art of data and models permits a better treatment.

IDCOR:

The pool scrubbing decontamination factors used by IDCOR are based on conservative interpretations of GE and EPRI experimental results.

They are not conjectural. NRC should integrate the DF's over the spectrum of particle sizes; we believe that this would result in DF's greater than those used by IDCOR.

2.8 Ice Bed Decontamination NRC:

We basically agree with that the mechanistic effects used by IDCOR are correct. We are concerned about ability to model sedimentation without explicit treatment of particle sizes (Paraphrased from discussion .

notes.)

2" ,,

Page 9 IDCOR:

IDCOR believes that the empirical model covers this. Validation of the model may be appropriate for confirmatory research.

2.9 Fission Product Decay Chains NRC:

For example, the Tel32 __> I132 transition could affect transport behavior, especially over long times. We believe this effect is _

small. .

IDCOR We believe that the decay chains should be taken into consideration for very long times after the accident, but we agree that the effect should not be major for the time periods of interest in the IDCOR analyses. .

e

is

.{*

c Page 10 2.10 Aerosol Generation Mechanisms l 1.

NRC:

Potential for additional aerosol generation due to steam explosions and high pressure blowdowns, for example, should be recognized as a component of uncertainty. [ Paraphrased from discussion notes.,

f' IDCOR:

! IDCOR assessments indicate that neither steam explosions or high pressure 4 '

, blowdowns would be sufficiently energetic to cause early containment failure. ~.

~

Additional aerosols ~ generated by these events should have agglomerated and fallen out of the containment atmospheres over the long time periods l' prior to containment failure.

i i

2.11 Uncertainty / Sensitivity Analyses

NRC: '

I, i Based on other studies, we believe that the uncertainties are much larger i than the IDCOR sensitivity studies are indicating. The implication may

} be that the IDCOR models do not include the most sensitive parameters

, or don't allow them to be varied. We expect uncertainty associated with

- unmodeled phenomena to dominate.

The NRC group thinks that uncertainty must be larger than indicated in the IOCOR presentations. Maybe IDCOR models do not include most sensitive parameters or didn't allow them to be varied sufficiently. The QUEST study indicates that undertainties are dominated by differences between i alternative models, rather than in variations in parameters. [Last three sentences paraphrased from discussion notes.]

IDCOR:

IDCOR has chosen what it considers to be the best appropriate models l for inclusion in the analyses codes and methods. Also, we feel that parameters and models should not be varied beyond the range

of physical reasonableness. We don't think that investigating the effects of models, if they are inappropriate, is reasonable. Investigaticn 2

of the validity of models within the context of the ultimate " bottom

line" effects may be appropriate for confirmatory research.

2.12 Plant Analyses NRC: .!

There are many differences in results. It is not clear yet to what extent j these arise from differences in modeling versus accident sequences defi-i nition. In those cases where there is apparent agreement, it may be

fortuitous.

Page 11 .

Basic assumptions on accident sequence definition can make a big difference.

There is'an apparent lack of consistency in the IDCOR treatment of human behavior. This.should be a subject of discussion at the next meeting.

Following completion of MARCH-MAAP comparison calculations at BCL, interac-tions with IDCOR staff would help to understand differences.

The IDCOR Mark I results depend heavily on the retention capability of the reactor building. We are concerned about our understanding of the failure modes of the primary containment and the reactor building. .

Similarly, the PWR "V" sequence results rely heavily on retention in the I auxiliary building. Also, we believe that the treatment of the drywell leakage and suppression pool bypass in the BWR Mark III cases may be inade-quate. [Last two sentences paraphrased from discussion notes.]

IDCOR:

There are many areas of agreement on results, in that most fission product releases are low. For cases where NRC obtained early containment failure, such as in ice condensers, we feel that the NRC analyses do not take into consideration physical realities such as continuous hydrogen burning as aided by natural circulation in the ice beds and upper compartment. Also, NRC does not take into consideration the potential for fission product attenuation in the reactor building for BWRs Mark I's and the auxiliary buildings for PWR "V" sequences.

For areas where there is agreement, we do not think it is necessarily fortuitous, but rather the natural consequence of working in the same world, which is governed by physical laws.

Accident sequence definition indeed makes a big difference and we so stated repeatedly.

As we stated during the meeting, detailed consideration of operator actions will be covered in meeting 4. IDCOR's assumptions with respect to operator action are based on NRC-approved symptom-oriented emergency procedure guidelines. In fact, if these guidelines are followed, the progression of an accident into severe conditions will not occur. Therefore, IDCOR.

had to assure operator inaction in many cases to allow the accidents to proceed to their end points.

We agree that the MAAP/ MARCH comparison calculations should be discussed in detail.

We agree that the detailed understanding of the failure made of primary containment and reactor buildings could be improved. However, when failure

  • occurs late in the accident sequence, these modes of failure become less important.

The exact amount of drywell leakage and suppression pool bypass in BWR Mark III's appear to be plant-specific. In any case, a containment still exists, outside the drywell and the suppression pool, which has fission I product retention capability.

t
