SUBJECT:
SUMMARY
OF MEETING HELD WITH BOILING WATER REACTOR OWNERS GROUP (BWROG) TO DISCUSS THE BWROG'S LOW UPPER SHELF ENERGY EQUIVALENT MARGIN ANALYSIS BACKGROUND The subject meeting was held on January 5, 1993, at the Nuclear Regulatory Commi;sion (NRC) Heaaquarters located at One White Flint North in Rockville, Maryland. This meeting was held as a follow-up to the previous meeting with the BWROG relating to Charpy upper shelf energy (USE). Enclosure 2 provides a list of attendees and Enclosure 3 provides the BWR0G's presentation.
Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 requires that reactor vessel beltline materials maintain an USE throughout the life of the vessel of no less than 50 ft-lb unless it is demonstrated that lower values of USE will provide margins of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by Appendix G of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code.
In response to Generic letter 92-01, all licensees indicated that, by their analyses, they are in compliance with Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 requirements. However, some plants indicated their estimated USE is below 50 ft-lbs based on NRC staff criteria. Additional information is required from these and a number of other plants to determine if acceptable methods were used to determine their reactor vessel upper shelf energies. Typical information required includes the bases for correlation factors used to convert test results from longitudinal to transverse specimen orientations and the bases for establishing initial USE in the absence of unirradiated test data. In addition, discrepancies between data in some of the generic letter responses and previously reported data need to be resolved. It is anticipated that, as the reviews proceed, some of the plants may not have adequately demonstrated that their reactor vessel upper shelf energies are above 50 ft-lbs, or that they will remain above 50 ft-lbs, through their end of life.
The BWROG provided a Topical Report, "BWR Beltline Material Upper Shelf Energy )
Estimation Methods," dated June 1992 (GE-NE-523-18-1191) and requested that s the NRC staff review and approve the report. This report was provided as a ,.
basis for establishing initial USE in the absence of unirradiated test data.
A meeting was held on July 13, 1992, to discuss the report. The NRC staff- 'N))(,%
indicated that additional information was needed and that additional d justification may be required to support the proposed methodology.

s James E. Richardson February 1,1993 An NRC/ Industry Meeting on the Coordination of Reactor Pressure Vessel Integrity Issues was hold at the Crowne Plaza Holiday Inn, Rockville, Maryland, on September 2 and 3, 1992. Recognizing the issues noted above the NRC staff suggested that the industry perform generic bounding analyses. The B&W Dwners Group Reactor Vessel Working Group and some individual licensees had already begun to perform such analyses. Enclosure 1 lists the Owners Groups and the other plants who have submitted preliminary analysis. In addition, the NRC Office of Research has performed independent analyses to bound the different plant types and materials used in reactor vessels.
SUMMARY
The BWROG representatives presented tle information included in Enclosure 3 on BWR low USE equivalent margin analyses. The presentation included an introduction, scope of the analyses, method used, bounding nature, and conclusions. The BWROG indicated that it is postponing any additional effort on the USE estimation methods report discussed in the background section of-this meeting summary pending the outcome of the current equivalent margin analyses work.
The BWROG further indicated that the equivalent margins analyses is applicable to all BWR-2 through BWR-6 vessels. This is based on evaluating the bcundin conditions of the material chemistries, vessel fluences, vessel geometries, g-and plant transients.
The methodology, J-R curve (resistance to ductile crack extension) development, generic loading cases, limiting transients, materials,-and weld considerations used in performing the equivalent margin analyses were discussed in detail as outlined in Enclosure 3. The BWROG concluded adequate fracture toughness exists for the licensed life of the BWR vessels. They also stated that additional work and J-R curve testing is being done and that the:
results of this testing may demonstrate even greater safety margins for some vessel materials.
The NRC staff indicated that more rigorous statistical analysis and deterministic evaluation is needed to support the safety margins resulting from the analyses. Clarification is also needed on the temperature and sulfur content effects on the overall results. This will be taken into consideration i
during the additional J-R curve studies and testing. The NRC staff also indicated that additional-information on the Japanese (IHI); weld material is needed. :
The effects of Anticipated Transients Without Scram (ATWS) on reactor vessel integrity were also discussed. The BWROG indicated that the peak pressure for the generic ATWS event would be bour,ded by the gressures assumed in their l
initial equivalent margins analyses hr WRs. The NRC staff indicated that l
its independent equivalent margins analyses for BWRs supports the.BWROG's l

James E. Richardson February 1, 1993 conclusion. The NRC staff det frequency of approximately 10', perermined conservative reactor year, peak for the four pressures, Nuclear Steamat an ATWS Supply System (NSSS) type vendors. The results of the NRC staff's evaluation for the four NSSS vendors is summarized as follows:
Vendor Peak Pressure (PSIG)
Babcock and Wilcox (B&W) 3800 Combustion Engineering (CE) 4100 Westinghouse (W) 3400 General Electric (GE) 1350 The NRC staff noted that the above results of its evaluation should be considered by the various owners groups when assessing the affects of an ATWS event when performing equivalent margins analyses.
Questions were raised by the BWROG representatives and Nuclear Management and Resources Council (NUMARC) representatives, who were present at the meeting, as to the review process for the equivalent margins analysis and'their use as the licensing basis. The initial request by the NRC staff for generic i bounding equivalent margins analyses was to assure that no significant vessel integrity issues exist while the staff completes its detailed review of the responses to Generic letter (GL) 92-01 to resolve uncertainties in the methods used in estimating actual USE and other discrepancies as previously noted in the background section of this meeting summary. This is also.the case for the individual licensees noted in Enclosure 1.
Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 requires that the equivalent margins analyses .
performed to demonstrate values of USE lower than 50 ft-lb provide margins of safety against fracture equivalent to those required by Appendix G of the ASME Code be approved by the Director, Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation.
Where uncertainties or discrepancies exist, licensees, individually or as members of owners groups, may request NRC staff review and approval by the Director, Nuclear Reactor Regulation, of the plant specific or bounding equivalent margins analyses as their licensing basis. The staff strongly suggested that the review and approval of the various-owners group bounding equivalent margins analyses should be requested as topical report reviews if-several licensees chose to reference them as licensing bases. An'early decision by' individual licensees or members of owners groups, where uncertainties or discrepancies exist, to use the equivalent margins analyses.
as their licensing bases would assist the staff in effective use of its resources. Separate review efforts, topical re) orts or plant specific, would be initiated and fees-charged in accordance wit 1 current NRC policy. It was

0 THE BWROG HAS BEEN WORKING PROACTIVELY ON THE UPPER SHELF ENERGY (USE) ISSUE FOR SINCE 1991
- CONCERNS WERE RAISED AS A RESULT OF GENERIC LETTER 88-11 WORK THAT A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF BWRS DID NOT HAVE INITIAL USE DATA FOR THEIR BELTLINE MATERIALS
- LOW USE WAS NOT EXPECTED TO BE AN ISSUE, JUST A LACK OF USE DATA TO QUANTIFY COMPLIANCE WITH THE APPENDIX G LIMIT OF 50 FT-LB THE BWROG FRACTURE TOUGHNESS COMMITTEE PRESENTED A REPORT TO THE NRC IN JULY 1992 WITH PROPOSED METHODS OF ESTIMATING USE BASED ON BELTLINE DATA AVAILABLE TO ALL BWRS THE NRC REQUESTED FURTHER WORK ON THE REPORT, WHICH HAS BEEN POSTPONED PENDING THE OUTCOME OF THE EQUIVALENT MARGIN ANALYSIS WORK
===================================
BWROG NEEDS TO KNOW WHETHER 50 FT-LB COMPLIANCE MUST BE DEMONSTRATED ONCE EQUIVALENT MARGIN FOR LOWER USE VALUES HAS BEEN SHOWN
===================================

q APPENDIX B - 1, Models Without the Thickness Terms -
For those practical applications in which a reasonable value of thickness cannot be determined, models for1, have been recalibrated without the thickness terms. The !
general model form remains unchanged:
J, = Cl (Aa)C exp[C3(Aa)Cd] (B 1)
The expressions for C2 and C3 without the t'dekness terms are:
C2 = di + 4 InC1 . (B 2)- ,
C3 = 4 + d 3InC1 (B 3) j Parameter C1 is calculated from the following expressions:
CVN, model for RPV welds and Linde 80 welds:
InC1 = a3 4 a Cu(dr)*
2 + a T3 + a inCVN, g _ (B4) ;
Cu-fluence model for Linde 80 welds:
InC1 = at + a 3Cv(dt)'8 + a 3T. (B 5);
CVN, model for RPV base metals: '
- InC1 = at + a3 1nCVN, + a3 T + a3 dt .(B 6) -
Charpy model for the combined database:
InC1 = ai + aa inCVN + a3 T . (B 7)~.

g, BWROG-CONCLUSIONS 0 ALL BWR/2 THROUGH BWR/6: VESSEL- BELTLINE MATERIALSL HAVE ADEQUATE FRACTURE-TOUGHNESS FOR USE VALUES EXPECTED DURING THE REMAINDER OF LICENSED OPERATION 0 FURTHER WORK SHOULD, AND WILL, BE DONE IN DETERMININGITHE APPLICABILITY OF.THE 302B J-R CURVE SIZE EFFECT TO BELTLINE:
PLATES OF EARLY BWRS IMPORTANCE OF MELTING PROCESS AND-SULFUR CONTENT WILL BE INVESTIGATED
- J-R CURVE TESTING'WILL BE DONE, IN CONJUNCTION WITH-ORNL, ON-SEVERAL OLDER HEATS OF BWR PLATE (302B MODIFIED-AND POSSIBLY 533B)
L 0 ONCE IT IS AGREED THAT ADEQUATE FRACTURE TOUGHNESS EXISTS-AT USE VALUES LOWER THAN ARE EXPECTED IN BWRS,-THERE'SHOULD BE NO NEED IN FUTURE APPENDIX G EVALUATIONS TO-DEMONSTRATE?
