I.

THE TDI DIESEL GENERATOR OWNERS GROUP PROGRAM PLAN A.

Background

5.

TDI has been a major supplier of large diesel engines for marine propulsion, gas compression, and non-nuclear elec-tric power generation for years.

The engine known as the

" Enterprise engine" of the Enterprise Engine and Machinery Com-pany (which was acquired by TDI in 1960), underwent a major redesign in the late 1960s to transform it for the current rat-ings for electric power generation offered by TDI.

The first engine of the revised design was sold in May of 1969, and oper-ated at 400 rpm.

The first engine of the four-valve design for 450 rpm operation (similar to the VEGP engines) was ordered in 1972.2/

By mid-1976, orders for over 160 R-4 engines had been placed with TDI, including over seventy V-16 engines.

When Georgia Power Company placed its orders for four TDI DSRV-16-4 emergency standby diesel generators in 1976 for VEGP, orders for 42 emergency standby diesel generators at twelve other nuclear sites had already been placed with TDI.

2/

The DSRV-16-4 diesel generators at VEGP are TDI R-4 (four valve) engines of the 16-cylinder, four-cycle, V-type design.

Other TDI engines in nuclear service include the DSR-48 design, an in-line, 8-cylinder engine, and the DSRV-20 engine, a V-type design, but with 20 cylinders. -

6.

On October 25, 1983, as a result of a number of die-sel generator operating experiences involving various nuclear power plant utility owners and various diesel engine types and manufacturers, a technical information exchange meeting hosted by Mississippi Power & Light was held in Atlanta, Georgia.

As a result of discussions at this meeting, twelve U'.S.

utility owners, including Georgia Power Company, formed the TDI Diesel Generator Owners Group to address operational and regulatory issues relating to TDI diesel generator sets used as sources of back-up power in U.S. nuclear power plants.

7.

The structure of the TDI Diesel Generator Owners Group was formalized and approved at an executive meeting held in Atlanta, Georgia on December 21, 1983.

It consisted of an

~

Executive Committee consisting of company officers from each participating utility and a technical program director.

Re-

' porting to the technical program director were the project en-gineer, the DR/QR program manager, and the DR/QR report review manager, each of whom was responsible for a different aspect of the program.

Details of the organization of the owners Group are presented in the "TDI Diesel Generator Owners Group Program Plan," which was submitted to the NRC on March 2, 1984.

8.

The Program Plan established by the Owners Group pro-vided an in-depth assessment of the adequacy of the respective utilities' TDI diesel generators to perform their intended -

safety-related function through a combination of design re-views, quality revalidations, engine tests and component inspections.

High quality technical resources were used in the implementation of the Prcgram.

Organizations and individuals with expert knowledge in the various areas requiring investiga-tion, inspection and analysis were employed to ensure that the evaluations of the individual TDI diesel generators would be thorough and meaningful.

The major technical resources uti-lized in this comprehensive Program, and their function were:

Organization Role in Owners Group Program a.

f.

Impell Performance of design review tasks.

g.

9.

The NRC Staff's evaluation of the Owners Group Pro-

~

gram Plan was presented in " Safety Evaluation Report-Trans-america Delaval, Inc. Diesel Generator Owners Group Program Plan," dated August 13, 1984.

This safety evaluation report

("SER") included a review of the technical evaluation report

("TER"), " Review and Evaluation of TDI Diesel Generator Owners' Group Program Plan," (PNL-5161) of June, 1984, which was pre-pared by Pacific Northwest Laboratory ("PNL").3/

Based on its review, the NRC Staff's overall finding was that the Owners 3/

PNL is under contract to the NRC to perform technical evaluations of the TDI Owners Group generic program, in addi-tion to plant-specific evaluations relating to the reliability of TDI diesels..

Group Program Plan incorporated the essential elements needed to resolve the outstanding concerns relating to the reliability

-of the TDI diesel generators for nuclear service, and to ensure that the TDI diesel engines comply with GDC 1 and GDC 17.

These essential elements included:

(1) resolution of known ge-neric problems (Phase I); (2) systematic design review and quality revalidation of all components important to reliability and operability of each owner's engines (Phase II); (3) appro-priate engine inspections and testing, as identified by the re-sults of Phase I and II; and (4) appropriate maintenance and surveillance programs, as indicated by the results of' Phase I and Phase II.

B.

Phase I - Resolution of Generic Problems 10.

In Phase I of the Owners Group Program, one of the first activities undertaken was the assemblage of experience data pertinent to TDI engines.

Using input from various nuclear data sources 4/ (i.e.,

INPO, SOERs, LERs, 10 C.F.R

$ 50.55(e)'s, and 10 C.F.R. Part 21's, etc.) as well as non-nuclear sources (both marine and stationary), supplemented by data obtained as a result of feedback from the utilities' own inspection and testing results (conducted as part of the Owners Group Program), TDI engine / component operational experiences 4/

More fully described at 1 76. ^ --

were documented.

A review of the accumulated data resulted in a conclusion by the Owners Group technical staff (i.e.,

SWEC, FaAA, FEV, etc.) that a limited number of components warranted consideration as significant known problems with potentially generic applicability to TDI diesel generators.

Accordingly, sixteen components received priority attention wi~ thin the Own-ers Group design review group.

The sixteen components vere as follows:

a.

Turbocharger, b.

Base and bearing caps, c.

Crankshaft, d.

Cylinder block, e.

Cylinder head studs, f.

Connecting rods, g.

Connecting rod bearing shells, h.

Pistons, i.

Airstart valve capscrews, j.

Cylinder heads, k.

Fuel oil injection tubing, 1.

Main and connecting pushrods, m.

Rocker arm capscrews, n.

Jacket water pump, o.

Wiring and termination, p.

Cylinder liner. -

1 11.

A detailed design review of each of these components was conducted by the Owners Group consultants to establish the adequacy of their design.

Specific design and/or manufacturing concerns were identified and resolved through analyses, testing and documentation reviews.

Establishment of maintenance requirements and the preparation of inspection plans for these components also formed part of the Phase I effort.

12.

While TDI drawings and certain TDI information were used as input to both the Phase I and Phase II (DR/QR) pro-grams,othe actual technical evaluations were performed indepen-dently of TDI, thereby providing an independent verification of the critical design aspects of each component.

Independent de-sign verification was achieved as follows:

a.

The attributes of the component to be verified by design review were determined by a thorough investigation of the component's service history and identification of likely failure modes.

b.

Methodology for verification of the critical attributes was established, and significant en-gine components (i.e.,

components designed by TDI), were evaluated by the Owners Group, not by review of TDI analysis.

1 l

13.

The Owners Group Program achieved independence from i

TDI's quality assurance ("QA") program by inspection and testing of the diesel generator equipment at each of the nuclear plant sites, including VEGP.

These inspections were performed by both Owners Group personnel and by VEGP personnel.

Examples of inspections performed by Owners Group personnel in-cluded field walkdowns of pipe, tubing and electrical conduit, safety-related wiring, and generator control equipment.

In ad-dition, eddy current examinations were performed on components such as the crankshaft and conne; ting rods, and material comparator and hardness readings were taken on various compo-nents.

The Owners Group recommended inspections are a specific means of verifyir.g critical aspects of each component, and as this method veriftes the suitability of the components actually installed, independence from TDI's QA program is achieved.

14.

Review findings and final recommendations on the Phase I components were outlined in thirty-six separate re-ports.5/

These reports contain recommendations for mainte-nance, testing and inspection, and recommendations concerning operating procedures and procurement specification 1

5/

Thirty-six reports (fifteen subject reports plus supple-ments) were required to address the sixteen components due to differences between types of engines (i.e.,

the DSR-48 and DSRV-16-4).

All of the sixteen components were addressed in separate reports except for the cylinder block and cylinder liner which were evaluated together.

requirements.

As these reports were completed, they were sent to the NRC Staff for review and comment.

The testing and anal-i ysis in support of these thirty-six Phase I reports represent a i

significant effort, spanning over a year's time and involving more than a hundred engineers and technicians.

The following discussion addresses each of the sixteen Phase I components, providing an overview of the problems associated with them in the past and the methodology, and conclusions of the owners Group review.

15.

Rocker Arm Capscrew.

Tne rocker arm capscrews in TDI diesel engines transmit resultant loads from the valve springs, valve opening pressure, pushrods, and rocker arm assemblies to the subcover and cylinder heads.

The rocker arm capscrews were included among the sixteen Phase I components due to isolated failures which were attributed to insufficient preload applica-tion.s/

Two rocker arm capscrew designs were evaluated by the Owners Group, the original " straight shank" type capscrew and a i

modified " necked shank" design.7/

The VEGP capscrews are of s/

Joint Intervenors identified "[e]ngine rocker arm shaft bolt failure" as a problem experienced with the TDI diesels.

See " CPG /GANE's Response to Applicants' First Set of Interroga-tories and Request for Production of Documents," December 5, 1984, Answer to Interrogatories 14-1, 14-2.

This refers to a failure of a rocker arm capscrew.

A detailed discussion of the analysis performed is includ-ed in SWEC, " Emergency Diesel Generator Rocker Arm Capscrew Stress Analysis," March, 1984 and its Supplement, April, 1984, both prepared for the Owners Group.

1 the " necked shank" design.

See " Affidavit of Steve A.

Phillips" ("Phillips Affidavit"), Ex. 2.

16.

Based on the results of its analyses, the Owners Group concluded that both the original and the modified designs were adequate for nuclear service.

The modified " necked shank" design was found to be somewhat more resistant to fatigue fail-ure and less likely to lose its preload due to its lower cyclic load.

The threads utilized for both designs were determined to adequately resist distortion during preload application and the material utilized for the modified rocker arm capscrew design was determined to meet or exceed the requirements of the Ameri-l can Society for Testing Materials (" ASTM") Standard A193.

The Owners Group recommended a quality revalidation review (materi-al verification) on a sample basis to confirm capscrew material properties.

The Owners Group further recommended that all ma-i terials used in the " straight shank" design, if not AISI 4140,g/ have a minimum proof strength of 90,000 psi.

The Own-ers Group recommended that the capscrew torque be checked at every outage after initial engine operation.9/

l g/

AISI 4140 and ASTM-A193 are comparable in their require-ments for chemical composition.

AISI 4140 is a standard of the American Iron and Steel Institute.

9/

See Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2, for a discussion of testing and inspections already performed at VEGP.

a O

17.

Fuel Oil Injection Tubing.

The fuel oil injection tubing on the TDI standby diesel engines transfers high pres-sure fuel from the individual cylinder fuel pumps to the injec-tion nozzles.

The fuel oil injection tubing was included among the Phase I components due to leaks that developed in tubing installed on TDI diesels at two nuclear sites.

18.

Both shrouded and unshrouded tubing designs were ana-lyzed by the Owners Group.10/

The Owners Group also reviewed the TDI endurance test procedures and test results.11/

The test report from the fuel pump supplier (Bendix) was also re-viewed.

This report included tests demonstrating that cavitation and erosion were not a problem at the flow levels required in the TDI engines.

In addition to these manufactur-ers' tests, several utility engines with TDI tubing, have accu-7 mulated more than 750 hours0.00868 days <br />0.208 hours <br />0.00124 weeks <br />2.85375e-4 months <br /> (10 cycles) of operation.

This provides confirmation that the fatigue failures of the fuel oil injection tubing were isolated occurrences (manu-facturing flaws) and not a generic problem.

10/

Shrouded tubing is scheduled to be installed on the VEGP diesel generators, as recommended by the Owners Group.

See Phillips Affidavit, 1 7.

11/

A detailed discussion of the Owners Group review of this component is contained in: " Emergency Diesel Generator Fuel Oil Injector Tubing," April, 1984, prepared by SWEC. I

f 19.

Based on its analyses, the Owners Group determined that the fuel oil injection tubing meets the stress criteria of ASME III Class 2 piping design.

The fracture mechanics analy-sis concluded that a 0.0048 inch deep maximum flaw size could be contained on the inner surface of the tube and not propa-gate.

The testing method (addy current) used to detect cracks will assure that any flaw which might occur in the tubing does not exceed 0.004 inch deep.

The compression fittings used to connect the tubing to the pump and injector were considered satisfactory given their testing and in-service performance.

20.

The owners Group recommended inspection of the inner surface of the.high pressure tubing using eddy current tech-niques.

Maintenance instructions recommend that the tubing and fittings be checked visually each month for fuel oil leaks while the engines are operating.

Also, the tubing supports should be checked at each outage to assure that the elastomer

-inserts are functional and to check for any excessive fuel oil line vibration and deflection.

Performance of the Owners Group recommended inspections and maintenance will ensure the suitability of the engines' fuel oil injection tubing.

21.

Main Bearing Saddle, Bearing Caps and Fasteners.

The main bearing saddle, bearing caps, and the fastener assembly support the engine crankshaft in the TDI standby diesel genera-tors.

The cylinder firing pressure exerts a load on the engine i

piston which is transmitted to the main bearing saddle assembly through the connecting rod and the crankshaft.

Therefore, the entire load on the piston is supported by the saddle-bearing cap assembly.

22.

The saddle-bearing cap assembly was included among the generic concerns due to cracks observed in the bearing ped-estals of DSR-4 inline engines, a nut pocket failure in a DSRV-16-4 engine, and through-bolt failures on a DSR-46 en-gine.12/

23.

The Owners Group performed a stress analysis for both the bearing saddle and bearing caps.13/

The Owners Group con-cluded that the saddle-bearing cap assembly is ad3quate for nuclear service.

The safety factors calculated by conservative analysis were adequate to conclude that the saddle-bearing cap assembly has infinite life against fatigue failure.

i i

f i

L 12/

Joint Intervenors identified "!c] racked bedplates in area of main journal bearings" as a problem experienced,with the TDI diesels.

See " CPG /GANE's Response to Applicants' First Set of Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents,"

December 5, 1984, Answer to Interrogatories 14-1, 14-2.

This refers to problems experienced with the main bearing saddle, caps, and-fastener assembly supporting the crankshaft.

I-g13 A detailed discussion of analyses performed is included in Design Review of Engine Base and Bearing Caps for Transamerica Delaval DSRV-16 Diesel Engines," prepared by FaAA for the Own-l ers Group.

)

[ l l

24.

To increase the factor of safety between the saddle and the bearing cap, the Owners Group recommended that the mating surfaces of the base and cap be thoroughly cleaned with solvent before first assembly and upon any reassembly as a pre-cautionary measure to improve the frictional force resisting cap movement.

The mating surfaces of the base and cap were i

cleaned with solvent at VEGP, as recommended.

See Phillips Af-fidavit, Ex. 2.

25.

Connecting Rod Bearing Shell.

The babbitt-overlayed cast aluminum connecting rod bearing shells in the TDI standby diesel generator engines provide the oscillating / sliding sur-face between the crankpin and the connecting rod through forma-tion of a hydrodynamic film.

The cylinder firing pressure is transmitted through the connecting rod bearing shells to the crankpin.

The force is thus converted into engine torque.

26.

The connecting rod bearing shells were included among the Phase I components due to cracks found in several con-necting rod upper shells in the Shoreham DSR-48 engines.

These cracks were identified in the bearing shells after about 250 hours0.00289 days <br />0.0694 hours <br />4.133598e-4 weeks <br />9.5125e-5 months <br /> of full-load operation and were due to the combined ef-fects of the Shoreham-unique design (1/4" x 45 degree) chamfer on the connecting rod bearing caps and voids in the bearing ma-terial resulting from the manufacturing process.

The Owners Group analysis concluded that the con-necting rod bearing shells used on DSRV-16-4 engines, such as VEGP's, with 13-inch x 13-inch crankshafts and connecting rod bores with 1/16" x 45 degrees chamfer (which fully support the bearing shell) have a fatigue life of 38,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> of full-load engine operation.14/

This conclusion is verified by the oper-ating history of the engines.15/

28.

Based on the results of its analyses, the Owners Group concluded that the babbitt-overlayed cast aluminum con-necting rod bearing shells were suitable for their intended purpose.

The Owners Group analysis resulted in a recommenda-tion that the size of the voids in the casting in the critical area of the bearing not exceed 0.050 inch.

In the non-critical areas of the bearing shell, and in the lightly-loaded lower bearing shell, the void size can be as large as 0.250 inch.

To assure compliance with the acceptance criterion, the Owners Group recommended inspection of the bearing shells by radio-graphy.

This inspection has been performed at VEGP and some shells rejected.

See Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2.

The shells 14/ A detailed discussion of the Owners Group analysis is in-cluded in the FaAA report, " Design Review of Connecting Rod Bearing Shells for Transamerica Delaval Enterprise Engines,"

March, 1984.

15/

For example, no failure of bearing she.l.ls was observed after 1200 hours0.0139 days <br />0.333 hours <br />0.00198 weeks <br />4.566e-4 months <br /> of operation of a Grand Gulf DSRV-16-4 engine.

Emergency Diesel Generator Engine and Auxiliary Module Wiring and Termination Qualification to IEEE-383-1974.

The TDI diesel generator engine and auxiliary module wiring and termination are interconnected by instrument, control, and power circuits on the diesel generator itself and within the control panels.

The wiring and termination was included among the sixteen Phase I components because of a Service Information Memorandum ("SIM") and a 10 C.F.R. Part 21 notice issued by TDI informing utilities of two potentially defective engine-mounted cables that did not meet IEEE-383-1974 standards.

30.

The owners Group analysis included a review of,the circuit requirements.

Included in this analysis was a determi-nation of the wire insulation rating, type and rating of termi-nation, voltage, maximum temperature, current flame retardancy requirements (IEEE-383-1974), and routing.16/

Based on the re-suits of its analysis, the Owners Group encluded that the wiring and termination were satisfactory, provided that the modification referenced in TDI's SIM is implemented.

VEGP will 16/

A detailed discussion of this analysis is included in SWEC, " Emergency Diesel Generator Auxiliary Module Control Wiring & Termination Qualification Review," July 1984, prepared for the Owners Group. i

)

be_ replacing its cables with 90"C IEEE-qualified cable, as re-quired.

See Phillips Affidavit, 1 14.

31.

Satisfactory performance of the wiring and termina-tion has been demonstrated in several utility engines with more than 750 hours0.00868 days <br />0.208 hours <br />0.00124 weeks <br />2.85375e-4 months <br /> of operation and over 100 starts each. This operating history confirms the reliability of the TDI-generic wiring and termination.

32.

Cylinder Head Stud.

The cylinder head studs in the TDI standby diesel generators transmit cylinder firing pressure forces from the cylinder heads to the engine block and assure the required preload on the cylinder head gasket for combustion gas and water sealing.

The cyinder head studs were included among the Phase I components due to isolated failures resulting from insufficient preload in some non-nuclear applications.

Two distinct head stud designs were evaluated by the Owners Group, the original, " straight" shank design, and a modified,

" necked" shank type.

The VEGP engines have the " necked" shank design.

See Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2.

33.

A stress analysis was performed by the Owners Group on both head stud cesigns17/

The analysis included a 17/

A detailed discussion of the analysis is included in SWEC, rEmergency Diesel Generator Cylinder Head Stud Stress Analy-sis," April, 1984 and its Supplement, May, 1984, both prepared for the Owners Group., _ _ _ _

=

determination of the applied stresses, the endurance limits, a j

l fatigue life analysis, a thread distortion analysis, and a thermal stress evaluation of both stud designs.

Based on its analysis, the Owners Group concluded that both the " straight" and " necked" studs were satisfactory for nuclear service.

The

" necked" shank design (used at VEGP) is somewhat more resistant to fatigue failure and less likely to lose its preload.

The

" necked" design top thread in the block is lower than that on the " straight" stud, which means that the " necked" design will produce lower stress levels near the liner landing area than the " straight" stud.

The Owners Group recommended a quality revalidation review (material verification) on a sample basis to confirm that the cylinder head stud meets the requirements of AISI 4140.

This materials verification has been performed at VEGP.

clamping force to hold the air start valves in place on the cylinder heads.

The air start valve capscrews were included among the Phase I components because cylinder heads were found with insufficiently drilled-out air start valve capscrew holes which could prevent the air start valve from being properly I

seated.

This was discovered during an inspection prompted by a SIM issued by TDI which recommended that users measure the ---

a

r a

l length of their engine air start valve capscrews because some were too long.

TDI recommended that the capscrews be l

shortened.

VEGP has replaced the original 3-inch long capscrews supplied with its engines with the 2-3/4 inch length.

See Phillips Affidavit, 1 14, Ex. 2.

l 35.

A stress and dimensional analysis was performed by the Owners Group for the air start valve capscrew in order to verify TDI's recommended modification to a shorter length.lg/

The analysis included a determination of minimum possible capscrew clearance-(given the specified tolerances of the capscrew and its clamped parts), the applied stresses, a fa-tigue analysis and an analysis of stresses during tightening.

Satisfactory fatigue and operational life has been demonstrated by several utility engines which have accumulated more than 750 7

hours (10 cycles) of operation and over 100 starts.

This operating history verifies that capscrew fatigue and operation-al failures will not be a problem.

36.

Based on analysis and operating experience, the Own-ers Group concluded that the air start valve capscrew was sat-isfactory for nuclear service.

The design provides adequate Ig/

safety factors against fatigue failure and failure while tightening.

The capscrew will not fail due to loss of preload.

37.

The Owners Group recommended retorquing at eight-hour intervals during initial engine operation, as specified by TDI, until no further movement is detected.

This retorquing proce-dure will assure retention of a tight seal as the copper gasket

" sets".

VEGP will perform this retorquing, as recommended.

See Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2.

Pushrods.

The intake and exhaust main pushrods and the exhaust connecting (intermediate) pushrods were among the sixteen Phase I components.

The primary function of the pushrod is to provide a portion of the linkage that transmits camshaft lobe motion to the intake and exhaust valves, thereby controlling the valve opening and closing cycle.

Three basic designs are in use.

These are: 1) forged head; 2) ball end; and 3) friction-welded end.

39.

The forged head design consists of a tubular steel shaft fitted with hardened steel end pieces attached to the tube with four plug welds near the end of the tube.

Cracking in the tube wall adjacent to the plug welds has been found in the forged head design.

40.

The ball end design consists of a tubular steel shaft l

fillet-welded to a carbon steel ball at each end.

The ball end !

I i

L

design has exhibited cracking at the interface of the pushrod tube and ball end fitting.

These cracks have developed in the heat-affected zone of the high carbon chrome steel ball.

Com-plate separation between the tubular steel shaft and the pushrod ball has occurred upon disassembly.

Failures of the forged head and ball end designs have not affecte'd engine operability because the valve train lash has never been suffi-cient to allow the pushrod end to escape from the tube.

41.

The friction-welded design (the design used at VEGP, see Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2), consists of a tubular steel shaft friction-welded to a solid steel plug on each end.

No failures have been reported for the friction-welded pushrods.

42.

The Owners Group investigation of the pushrods con-sisted of a metallurgical analysis of the fillet-welded ball end design, fatigue analyses and an analysis of the buckling stability and wear resistance of the forged head and friction-welded designs.19/

In addition, the Owners Group performed ex-i perimental evaluation, including fatigue tests of forged-head and friction-welded pushrods.

The fatigue tests were performed 1

at loads in excess of those expected in service to a life of 7

10 cycles.

From the analysis and testing performed, the g19 A description of the Owners Group review is contained in, Design Review of Push Rods for Transamerica Delaval Diesel Generators", April, 1984, prepared by FaAA.

i i

Owners Group concluded that the friction-welded design is the most reliable of the three pushrod designs.

43.

The Owners Group recommended an inspection and sam-pling plan for the pushrods as follows:

a)

Verify that the main end connector pushrods are friction-welded.

b)

Perform a liquid penetrant or magnetic parti-cle test on all main and connector pushrods.

If these inspections cannot be performed, a visual inspection is acceptable if the sur-face is thoroughly cleaned to remove any coatings or deposits.

All pushrods for the Unit 1 A-train engine have been liquid penetrant tested, with satisfactory results.

See Phillips Af-fidavit, Ex.

The B-train pushrods will be liquid penetrant tested prior to preoperational testing of the engine.

The pushrods on the Unit 2 engines have also been liquid penetrant tested, with satisfactory results.

Cylinder Heads.

Cylinder heads cast before September, 1980 are sub-ject to core shift, inadequate control of solidifica-tion, and inadequate control of the stellite valve seat weld deposition process.

Piston Skirt.

The p4.ston skirt in the TDI diesel generators transmits the cylinder gas pressure force on the piston crown to the connecting rod.

Also, the piston skirt supports the piston crown and guides the connecting rod into the engine's cylinder.

The side thrust developed due to the obliquity of the rod is. transferred to the piston skirt.

The piston skirt provides a sliding friction surface against the 1

stationary cylinder liner.

In the TDI diesel generators, the piston crown is bolted to the piston skirt.

49.

The piston skirts were included among the sixteen Phase I components due to cracks in the skirt-to-crown stud attachment bosses in 23 out of 24 pistons in a DSR-48 engine at Shoreham.

Each of the cracked piston skirts were of the AF de-sign.

50.

The Owners Group performed a detailed analysis of the AF and AE type piston skirts.

Basically, the AF and AE piston skirts are similar in design with identical loading and func-tional attributes.

The major difference between the two de-signs is in their fabrication thermal history and the configu-ration of the stud bosses inside the skirt where the washers on the crown attachment stud meet the skirt i

In the Owners Group analysis, a non-destructive dye-penetrant test was performed on a cracked AF piston.21/

l analysis found that all of the cracks were similarly located and oriented on the spot-faced boss.

A destructive examination

1

was conducted and the cracks were opened up.

Examination of the fractured surfaces indicated that they were fatigue cracks.

This was confirmed by examination in a scanning electron microscope.

52.

The Owners Group experimental and analytical evalua-tions showed that the peak stresses in the AE skirts (the de-sign utilized at VEGP, see Phillips Affidavit, 1 14, Ex. 2),

are generally lower than the corresponding AE values.

This fact, coupled with the positive operating history of the AE skirt on both nuclear and non-nuclear TDI diesel engines, led the Owners Group to conclude that the AE piston skirts are ade-quaIte for unlimited life under full load conditions.

53.

Cylinder Block and Liner.

The cylinder block in the TDI standby diesel generators makes up the central framework for the engine.

The cylinder block was included among the Phase I components because of block top cracking exhibited in blocks in the Shoreham engines and other TDI engines in nuclear and non-nuclear applications.

Four types of cracks were iden-tified in the Shoreham engine blocks:

1) ligament (from cylin-der liner counterbore to head stud counterbore); 2) stud-to-stud; 3) stud-to-end of block; and 4) circumferential cracks at the liner counterbore.22/

All of these cracks connected with 22/

Owners Group analysis of circumferential cracking showed these cracks to be the result of loads applied to the cylinder (Continued Next Page) _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

the block-top surface and could be detected by surface inspec-tion.

At Shoreham, one block (from Emergency Diesel Generator

("EDG") 103) was found to have a Widmanstaetten graphite microstructure.

This block also had stud-to-stud and stud-to-end cracks.

No instance has been reported where cylinder block cracks have resulted in failure of an R-4 or RV-4 engine.

54.

The Shoreham engine blocks analyzed by the Owners Group had operated a significant amount of time at or above the nameplate rating of 3500 kW.23/

As part of its engine requalification testing, Shoreham operated each engine 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> at or above the design load.

During engine disassembly and inspection, ligament cracks were found.

After inspection, unit EDG102 was operated through 100 starts to loads greater than 50% nameplate load and was then reinspected.

Eddy current examination showed no discernable extension of ligament cracks.

In general, cracks were detected and measured.using visual, liquid penetrant, and eddy-current inspection techniques.

(Continued)

I liner landing.

Liner landing pressure is primarily controlled by the interference of the liner collar (proudness) above the block top.

The VEGP blocks have been reworked to reduce this interference to current TDI specifications.

See Phillips Affi-davit, Ex.

Liner crush has been maintained.

55.

A cylinder. block strain gage test was conducted by J

the Owners, Group on. unit EDG103 following a 100-hour full power j

endurance test.

A metallurgical analysis was also conducted.

- The analysis consisted of an investigation of the microstructure, composition and mechanical properties of four TDI R-4 cylinder blocks from three engines at Sho~reham.

The four cylinder blocks investigated were EDG101, EDG102, EDG103 (original) and EDG103 (replacement).

It was established that the microstructure of EDG101, EDG102, and EDG103 (replacement) was normal for grey cast iron but the EDG103 (original) block l

was characterized by an abnormal graphite distribution (degenerant Widmanstaetten graphite).

It is generally accepted I

that the mechanical properties of grey cast iron with the Widmanstaetten ferrite are lower than normal.

Higher than nor-mal amounts of the tramp elements (lead and antimony), were present in the EDG103 (original) block.

The study described in the Owners Group report clearly showed that the original, cracked EDG103 cylinder block was characterized by an abnormal microstructure and that the mechanical properties of that mate-rial were substandard.

56.

The Owners Group fracture and fatigue life evaluation produced a cumulative damage analysis which takes into account a cumulative Fatigue Damage Index ("EDI").

This index accounts for hours of operation at each power level and the

l corresponding mean stress and cyclic stress driving the crack at each power level.

The index quantifies the effect of dif-fering fatigue crack growth rates of different materials.

This allows comparison of the test period experience on the original Shoreham EDGlO3 block, with its documented degraded fatigue re-sistance, to the expected behavior of other type cylinder blocks having the fatigue resistance characteristic of typical grey cast iron under required test and postulated Loss of Offsite Power / Loss of Coolant Accident (" LOOP /LOCA") condi-tions.

Application of the cumulative damage analysis can be used to set future engine operation limits.

Safe operation can be assured during a LOOP /LOCA based on Shoreham benchmark oper-ations in combination with past operation of the engine pro-vided proper procedures are followed as referred to in the Own-ers Group report.

57.

Based on the stress analysis, the Owners Group made the following recommendations:

Periodic inspections are necessary to demonstrate that each cylinder head block is capable of per-forming its intended function as a component in a diesel generator in nuclear standby service.

All blocks should be metallurgically evaluated to verify that the microstructure is characteristic of typical grey cast iron.

Cylinder blocks that are inspected and found to be free of ligament cracks can operate without addition-al inspections for combinations of load and time that produce less than the excess cumulative damage index l

that has been demonstrated by its operation at the...

time of the latest block top inspection.

Blocks of engines that have operated without block top inspec-tion or for a time beyond the last inspection in ex-cess of the allowable fatigue damage index should conservatively be assumed to have cracked ligaments.

For blocks with known or assumed ligament cracF,, ab-sence of detectable stud-to-stud or stud-to-end cracks between the heads should be established before returning the engine to emergency standby after any operation in excess of 50% nameplate load.

Any stud-to-stud or stud-to-end crack indications must be evaluated with detailed inspection to assure that they extend less than 1.5 inches from the block top before returning the engine to emergency standby after any operation in excess of 50% nameplate load.

It is necessary to evaluate the microstructure to en-sure typical cast iron.

The above recommendations are being implemented at VEGP.

See, e.g.,

Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2.

58.

Turbocharger.

The turbochargers on the TDI standby diesel generators utilize exhaust gas energy to drive the tur-bine which drives a compressor on a common shaft to pressurize the engine intake manifold.

This forces more air into the com-bustion chamber, permitting more fuel to be introduced which results in higher combustion pressures and higher net engine output than that possible with natural aspiration.

59.

The turbochargers were included among the Phase I components because of thrust bearing, nozzle vane, nozzle ring capscrew and washer, and nozzle ring failures on TDI nuclear and non-nuclear standby diesel engines.24/

24/

A detailed discussion is included in the FaAA report "De-sign Review of Elliott Model 90G Turbocharger Used on (Continued Next Page) 60.

The Owners Group performed inspections of thrust bearings from nuclear engines that had experienced a series of starts and some operating time.

The thrust bearings from an engine that used only the drip pre-lubrication system experi-enced measurable wear with a low number of operating hours and engine starts.

The thrust bearing from an engine with a before and after (b & a) lubrication system, activated manually for e

two minutes prior to start, experienced no measurable wear.25/

61.

The Owners Group concluded from its analyses that the thrust bearing would provide adequate service if a prelubrica-tion system operated with a drip provision for fast starts was installed and used during non-emergency starts.

The owners Group found that the thrust bearings were of adequate design, given proper lubrication, to operate at the loads introduced by the exhaust and induction air gases during transient, normal operating and overload conditions.

The Owners Group recom-mended that the thrust bearing be inspected at each 5-year overhaul interval.

62.

The Owners Group found no problems with regard to the dynamic performance of the rotor assembly.

The Owners Group also reported on the nozzle ring capscrew, washer and vane failures, after investigating the failures of these components at several nuclear power plants.

The analysis concluded that the nozzle vane failures were due to high cycle fatigue intro-duced by engine vibration or exhaust gas pulsations.

The re-port concluded that while isolated vane failures may occur, they have not resulted in any degradation in diesel generator performance or a shutdown among the nuclear engines investi-gated.2s/

No cause for the cracked washer was found.22/

The failure of the capscrews is attributed to improper preload.

The single nozzle ring failure is attributed to probable impact from a broken vane.

Recommendations were made that all turbochargers be inspected for nozzle vane damage and that all capscrews be properly torqued to the 18 to 22 lbf-ft specified by Elliott.

This has been done at VEGP.

See Phillips Affida-vit, Ex. 2.

In addition, it was recommended that the exhaust temperatures be monitored and corrective actions taken if they exceed the values recommended by TDI.

VEGP will be monitoring exhaust temperatures.

Id.

Based on the results of the 2p/

Maintenance performed during every outage would permit identification of loose or missing vanes or capscrews.

22/

Failure of a washer would not cause any degradation of diesel generator performance.

I analysis and the recommendations made for this component, the Owners Group concluded that the Elliott Model 90G turbochargers will perform satisfactorily.

63.

Jacket Water Pump.

The jacket water pump, taking suction from the jacket standpipe, delivers coolant (treated water) at the required pressure and flow rate to the engine jacket water header.

The pump provides the coolant circulation needed to cool the engine cylinder assemblies, exhaust mani-fold, turbocharger, intercooler, and engine lube oil cooler.

64.

The particular water pump design used on the DRSV-16-4 engine (such as the ones at VEGP) does not have a history of failures.

However, the jacket water pump used on the TDI standby generators eqqipped with the in-line diesel en-gine, model DSR-48, has a history of shaft failures in nuclear and non-nuclear service.

65.

The Owners Group report for the DSRV-4 pump reflects the use of two different impeller diameters - either 12.1 inches or 10.75 inches.28/

This variability is due to differ-ences in plant specification and the consequential coolant flow requirement for the standby generators.

In addressing the 28/

A detailed discussion of the analysis is included in SWEC,

'5mergency Diesel Generator Engine Drive Jacket Water Pump De-sign Review," April 1983, and its supplement, June 1984. t

l impact of the difference in diesel impeller diameter on the re-view, the Owners Group used a conservative approach - one based on analyzing the system with the larger impeller.

This situa-tion represented "the worst case" in terms of shaft and cou-pling loading.

The Owners Group concluded that the DSRV-4 and the modified DSR-4 pump designs were adequate for' nuclear ser-vice.

66.

Crankshaft.

The crankshaft in TDI standby diesel generator engines converts reciprocating motion, component in-ertial forces and gas pressure piston forces to rotary motion and torque at the output flange.

The 13" x 13" DSRV-16-4 en-gine crankshaft was included among the Phase I components due to three crankshaft failures in non-nuclear applications.

The non-nuclear failures were attributed to torsional fatigue cracks initiated in the oil holes of main journal numbers 6 or 8.

There have been no failures of 13" x 13" crankshafts on DSRV-4 engines in nuclear service.

The only failure of a crankshaft in a TDI diesel engine in nuclear service was on the smaller 11" x 13" crankshafts on the three Shoreham DSR-48 en-gines.

67.

The Owners Group performed a dynamic torsional analy-sis of the crankshaft to determine the true range of torque at each crankthrow.

A torsional model of the crankshaft was developed to supplement TDI's conventional forced vibration i - _. _ _

calculations.

In order to compute the true summation of the stresses due to various orders, the model included computations for phase relationships between the various orders.

The first three natural frequencies of the VEGP crankshaft were calculat-ed.

The natural frequencies were found to be in agreement with those computed by TDI.

68.

Further analysis considered the harmonic loading on the crankshaft.

Gas pressure, inertial forces and frictional loading were considered for the harmonic loading calculations.

The dynamics of a V-16 engine are such that the 4th order load components from the left and right banks almost cancel.

In practice, however, due to various reasons such as manufacturing tolerances and individual cylinder timing, the balance is not complete.

To simulate the unbalance the Owners Group applied one degree delay in the right bank cylinder.

In the absence of torsiographic test data, the calculated amplitudes are not com-pared with the measured amplitudes.

The model was used to cal-culate the range of torques at each crankthrow.

The stress level was found to be highest between cylinders 3 and 4, 5 and 6,

7 and 8.

The highest nominal shear stress amplitude of 5335 psi was found to be lower than the 7000 psi allowable by the Diesel Engine Manufacturers Association ("DEMA").

The Owners Group performed calculations to determine the amplitude of free-end vibration and the associated nominal shear stress at 7000 kW power and at a crankshaft critical speed of 438.4 rpm.

The highest nominal shear stress amplitude of 5128.8 psi was found to be lower than the 7000 psi allowable by DEMA.

69.

The Owners Group analysis concluded that the TDI cal-culations were appropriate and show that the crankshaft stresses are below DEMA recommendations for a single order.

The torsiograph tests performed on DSRV-16-4 diesel engines at a number of nuclear stations also show that the peak-to-peak crankshaft stresses are within the DEMA recommendations. The Owners Group concluded that the VEGP crankshafts are adequate for their intended service provided all of the Owners Group recommendations are followed.

A torsiograph test should be performed and the results compared with both the Owners Group analysis and TDI's calculations.29/

The results of the torsiograph test should demonstrate that the crankshaft stresses meet DEMA standards and that they are close to the TDI and Owners Group values.

Individual cylinder timing should be adjusted to accomplish engine balance and bring the stress val-ues in line with those of TDI and the Owners Group.

29/

Torsiograph testing will be conducted at VEGP to confirm the adequacy of the crankshafts.

See Phillips Affidavit, V 22.

Cylinder imbalance testing will also be conducted at the time af torsiograph testing.

Id.

r 70.

Connecting Rods.

The connecting rods used in the TDI standby diesel generators transmit engine cylinder firing forc-es from the pistons to the crankshaft such that the reciprocating motion of the pistons induces shaft rotation and output torque.

By virtue of the V-cylinder configuration, the mechanism required to perform this function consists of two connecting rods arranged in a master-articulated manner.

This arrangement requires more sophistication in bearing design and assembly methodology than that found with in-line type engines.

Such complexity makes the design analysis more involved and re-quires that there be substantial operating experience and/or experimtntal data to confirm the design integrity.

71.

Initially, the connecting rod assembly was produced with 1-7/8 inch diameter bolts to secure the main assembly joint (master rod box to link rod box).

Operating experience in non-nuclear applications indicated that the design was vul-nerable to failure by one of two mechanisms -- either by loss of bolt preload resulting in bolt failure or by the fatigue failure of the master rod box with cracks initiating at the thread roots.

To compensate for the loss of bolt preload, the installation torque specification for the joint bolts was in-creased.

Corrective action for the fatigue of the master rod box resulted in a design revision with 1-1/2 inch diameter bolts, torqued to 1700 lbf-ft to provide the same clamping -

I force obtained with the 1-7/8 inch bolt configuration torqued to 2600 lbf-ft.

This change in bolt diameter provided a greater material section and consequently reduced the stress levels in the master rod box.

The VEGP connecting rods are supplied with the revised 1-1/2 inch diameter bolt.

See Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2.

72.

The analysis conducted by the Owners Group indicated that both rod assembly designs were acceptable for nuclear ser-vice.30/

The results, however, showed that the 1-1/2 inch de-sign was not vulnerable to fatigue failure under the same en-gine load conditions as in the case of the 1-7/8 inch design.

73.

For both designs, the Owners Group recommended that each rod assembly be inspected with nondestructive techniques to confirm the absence of flaws.

In the case of the 1-7/8 inch bolt system, the inspection should be performed at intervals of 200 engine hours.

For the 1-1/2 inch bolt system, the inspec-tion need only be done initially to confirm the absence of pre-existing flaws.

Beyond these inspections, the rod assemblies need only be checked for proper bolt torque at in-stallation.

VEGP is implementing these Owners Group recommendations.

See, e.g.,

Phillips Affidavit, Ex. 2.

s i

74.

The Owners Group concluded that the rod assemblies are suitable for their intended application provided the fol-L lowing maintenance recommendations are observed:

1) the bolt holes be initially inspected to verify the absence of pre-existing flaws, 2) the procedure for torquing the rod bolts reflect the importance of cleaning the threaded surfaces and using a thread lubricant as specified in the TDI instruction manual, and 3) a comprehensive inspection of the connecting rods be conducted at each engine overhaul interval.

Phase II - Design Review / Quality Revalidation of Selected Engine Components 75.

Phase II of the Program (design review and quality revalidation), examined the components of each owner's particu-A lar engines, not evaluated in Phase I, from the standpoint of both design and quality attributes, to assess their ability to reliably perform their intended function.

These components did not have a history of problems. A Component Selection Committee composed of a component selection chairperson, SWEC representa-tive, FaAA representative, TDI representative, diesel generator specialist, and an owner's representative, formally reviewed each owner's engine components.

Based on the specific compo-nent's function and role in the overall operation of the en-gine, applicable site an'd industry experience, and the engi-neering judgment and experience of the Committee, certain

, e i

components were then selected for a detailed design review and/or quality revalidation.

76.

The first step in component selection, review of en-gine experience, encompassed three areas of review:

(1) nuclear industry experience; (2) non-nuclear industry experi-ence; and (3) utility site-specific experience.

Nuclear indus-try experience associated with each component was gathered and entered into the component database (a computer summary of the selected diesel generator components compiled using the "TDI Parts Manual").

77.

During the component selection process, engine compo-nents were classified as either Type A, Type B, or Type C.

These classifications were based on the effect the component's l

failure would have on diesel generator performance.

A descrip-tion of each of these classifications follows: t

would result in immediate diesel generator shut-down, or prevent start-up under emer-gency conditions.

b.

Type B Component - a component, based on the judgment and experience of the Compo-nent Selection Committee, whose failure would result in reduced capacity of the diesel generator, or the eventual failure of a Type A Component, if not detected, c.

Type C Component - a component, based on the judgment and experience of the Compo-l nent Selection Committee, whose failure would have little bearing on the effective use or operation of the diesel generator.

i Examples of components which did not require classification were items such as nameplates and maintenance tools.

78.

The Component Selection Committee chose the compo-nents to be subjected to a design review and/or quality revalidation on the foregoing bases (i.e., component classifi-cation as to criticality, past industry and other site-specific experience, etc. as inputted to the component database, as well as the engineering judgment and experience of the Component Se-lection Committee).

Absence of adverse operating experience did not necessarily exclude a component from the DR/QR process.

The following illustrates the general guidelines for selection a.

Type A Components - design review and/or quality l

revalidation normally required.

l b.

Type B Components - Component Selection Commit-tee would determine if design review and/or quality revalidation was required.

l c.

Type C Components - design review and/or quality revalidation normally not required.

l l

79.

Engine components selected for design review and/or l

quality revalidation were then subjected to reviews, inspec-tions, testing, etc., as required by the Component Selection Committee.

The nature of a specific component determined if a Design Review alone was required, Quality Kevalidation alone was required, or both were required.

The critical attributes of a given component, and how best to verify that attribute (i.e.,

analysis, inspection or both), dictated the nature of the required review.

80.

An example of a Design Review-only component is the flywheel.

It was determined that the only attribute required for review was the flywheel's effect on the crankshaft tor-sional system.

Only design review was required to determine, for each plant, what differences, if any, existed between the site-specific flywheel and the lead engine, and to evaluate any differences.

l 81.

An example of a Quality Revalidation-only component l

is the control panel assembly terminal boards / switches / wiring.

It was determined that the only review of attributes required was a visual inspection of the control panel for cleanliness and a verification that the wire was purchased to environmental qualification requirements.

82.

Design review and/or quality revalidation require-ments were reflected in specific task descriptions (" Component L

Revalidation Checklists") prepared for each component by the Owners Group Design Review Group and Quality Revalidation Group.31/

Task descriptions included any requirements 31/

The Design Review Group consisted of consultants from SWEC, FEV, Impell, and FaAA.

SWEC was responsible for small t

i bore piping and tubing equipment.

Impell was responsible for (Continued Next Page) l specified in the selection process, as well as more detailed descriptions of procedures, standards, or design review ap-proaches to be applied.32/

The individual task descriptions were then implemented by the Owners Group technical staff, in the case of design reviewn, and by the individual owner's qual-ity revalidation group, as discussed in the Phillips Affidavit, in the case of quality reviews.

83.

The Owners Group Program is based on a lead engine and follow-on engine concept.

The lead DSR-48 engines, at Shoreham, and lead DSRV-16-4 engines, at Comanche Peak, were extensively evaluated over an eight-month period.

A full re-view was conducted on all the required components during this period, utilizing over a hundred engineers, designers and (Continued) large bore piping.

FaAA and FEV were responsible for engine components.

Each component was assigned a task leader from the various organizations.

This task leader would develop a task description which was reviewed and approved by the Design Re-view Chairman and the Program Manager.

The Quality Revalidation Group consisted of SWEC engi-neers, quality assurance engineers, and inspectors.

Based upon the inspection and review requirements, as specified by the Component Selection Committee and the Design Review Group, they would develop specific task descriptions for each component.

32/

The task description for each component reviewed in Phase II of the Program is contained in or referenced in each owner's final DR/QR report, prepared by the Owners Group.

The DR/QR Report prepared for VEGP, Unit 1, incorporates the information contained in the 12-volume VEGP report on its engine inspection effort.

See also Phillips Affidavit, 1 6. -

j technicians.

For each of the follow-on engines, including i

those at VEGP, each component requiring a design and/or quality i

review was evaluated by the Design Review Group Task Leader to l

determine if the lead engine review was applicable.

This eval-untion involved identifying differences in design, loading, or application and evaluating any significant differences.

84.

The gears provide a typical design task description for a VEGP Type A component based on the lead engine review.

The design review checklist called for a comparison between the gear design for VEGP and the lead engines.

To accomplish this, a review of the TDI parts list and applicable drawings-was per-formed.

This showed that the design at VEGP was the same as Comanche Peak and Grand Gulf.

Gear loads were calculated by utilizing the lead engines.

Gear analysis was conducted with input from the specific VEGP crankshaft torsional vibration analysis.

The VEGP gear tooth loads were compared to the Comanche Peak and Grand G.tif loads to ensure that the VEGP loads were bounded.

Ths calculations performed on the Comanche Peak and Grand Gulf goats showed that the TDI design was ade-quate to meet its interdea function.

Since VEGP's load was bounded by Comanche's and Grand Gulf's, the gear train in-stalled in the VEGP engines was considered acceptable.

A total of twelve reports (some of which I

address multiple components) were prepared for components I

unique to the VEGP engines.

CONCLUSION 89.

At the compler. ion of each owner's DR/QR effort, a final report was issued by the Owners Group summarizing and transmitting results of the DR/QR reviews, identifying any cor-rective actions or recommendations, and providing conclusions regarding the adequacy of the diesel generators to perform their intended safety-related service.

90.

The Owners Group completed its review and issued the final DR/QR report on the DSRV-16-4 diesel engines at VEGP Unit 1 in December of 1984.34/

Both the scope, and the compre-hensiveness of this review represents a significant effort by the Owners Group technical staff and Georgia Power Company per-sonnel.

The results of this review, as presented in the VEGP DR/QR Report, establish that the important components of the TDI diesel generators at VEGP have been assessed to be adequate for their intended safety-related function.

91.

Nuclear standby diesel generator reliability has been a major concern of both the industry and the NRC.

Although previous programs have been sponsored by the NRC, EPRI, and other industry groups tc quantify and improve diesel generator reliability, the Owners Group Program was unprecedented in its e

approach and analytical detail.

Many of the components re-viewed were analyzed using techniques exceeding the detailed I

engineering effort which originally went into their design.

The TDI Diesel Generator Owners Group Program has provided as-surance of the reliability of the TDI diesel generators by es-tablishing the reliability and acceptability of their critical l

engine components.

Recommendations made by the Owners Group, when implemented, will further improve component reliability, thereby improving the overall reliability of the TDI diesel generators.

The Owners Group effort has provided a sound basis for concluding that the TDI diesel generators at VEGP are fully capable of reliably performing their intended safety-related functions.

EXHIBIT 2 VEGP - UNIQUE REPORT TDI OWNERS GROUP for V0GTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT - UNIT 1 CYLINDER BLOCK COMPONENT PART NO. 02-315A I

INTRODUCTION The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Owners Group Program for the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant requires Design and Quality Revalidation re-views of the cylinder blocks to determine the adequacy of design for their intended use at Vogtle.

The blocks are manufactured by TDI and are supplied under their part number 02-315-03-AE.

The cylinder block forms the framework of the liquid cooled engine and provides passage for coolant and support for the cylinder liners and cylinder heads.

II OBJECTIVE The objective of this review was to evaluate the structural adequacy of the cylinder block for its intended use at Vogtle Electric Generating Plant.

III METHODOLOGY In order to meet the stated objective, the following methods were used:

Review of liquid penetrant inspections of Vogtle OSRV-16-4 Engine 1 and 2 engine blocks.

Review of operating history.

1 Review of engine operating conditions at Vogtle and identification I

of any differences from those at Comanche Peak.

Performance of dimensional check and evaluation of liner / block interaction.

Evaluation of steady state

stresses, alternating stresses and stiffness in key portions of the cylinder block.

Evaluation of crack growth rate for cylinder block landing counter-bore diameter by comparison with conservative Shoreham data and analysis.

Review of metallurgical / microstructural analysis of cylinder block material.

Review of Vogtle site, nuclear and non-nuclear experience (see Appendix C).

Page 2 of 4 Review of Quality Revalidation Checklist results for acceptability.

e IV RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS l

A generic investigation of the structural adequacy ' of the TDI R-4 and RV-4 series diesel engine cylinder blocks for emergency standby service in nuclear power plants is summarized in Reference 1.

The investigation considers the cause, extent, and consequences of cylinder block cracking, and the inspections required to assure a sufficient margin of safety dur-ing continued operation under test and postulated accident conditions.

1 Evaluation of steady state stresses, alternating stresses and stiffness in key portions of the cylinder block was accomplished as part of the strain gauge testing at Shoreham, and the results were included in the cumulative damage and crack growth analyses.

The cumulative damage analysis is explained in Reference 1.

Diesel generators 1 and 2 have had limited operational experience.

Engine hours accumulated to date consist of factory test hours performed by TOI.

The engine operating conditions at Vogtle were compared to those at Comanche Peak and Shoreham.

No significant differences were found that would affect the structural integrity assessment of the Vogtle blocks.

Results of dimensional inspection of the cylinder liner bore and mating block surfacea were used to evaluate the interaction of the block and cylinder liner in the analysis of steady state and alternating stresses.

These results were utilized in the cumulative damage analysis.

1 The power output for this engine is 7000 kW at 100 percent load.

Maximum output required for LOOP /LOCA is 6032 kW.

The duration of a LOOP /LOCA used in this analysis is 168 hours0.00194 days <br />0.0467 hours <br />2.777778e-4 weeks <br />6.3924e-5 months <br />.

Strain gauge testing of the original Shoreham EDG 103 block, inspection data from before and after extensive test operation and materials testing were used as a basis to predict adequate life for cylinder blocks.

The rate of propagation of cracks between stud holes during operation in the 1

original Shoreham EDG 103 block, when compared with the LOOP /LOCA requirements at Vogtle, indicates that even if the Vogtle blocks had ligament cracks they are predicted to withstand with sufficient margin a LOOP /LOCA event.

Block tops have been inspected and no detectable ligament, stud-to-stud or stud-to-end cracks have been reported.

In addition, a material microstructure evaluation has been performed on all engine blocks at Vogtle verifying that the block material is characteristic of typical Class 40 grey cast iron.

REV. I V03239/2

Page 3 of 4 Application of the cumulative damage analysis (Figure 5-1 of Reference 1) shows that the Vogtle engines can perform for 490 hours0.00567 days <br />0.136 hours <br />8.101852e-4 weeks <br />1.86445e-4 months <br /> at 100 percent load (or operation resulting in equivalent cumulative damage), without inspection, with sufficient margin for a LOOP /LOCA event (Ref. 2).

Engine operation in excess of the above time period without repeated inspection in justified if the fatigue damage index since the last inspection does not exceed the allowable fatigue damage index based upon I

the last inspection.

In the future this process may be repeated, and additional engine operation without inspection may continue until the additional fatigue damage index equals the allowable fatigue damage index established by the last inspection which showed no cracking.

Optionally, in the future, after additional engine operation without repeated inspection has accumulated a fatigue damage index which exceeds the allowable fatigue damage index, continued engine operation can continue without removal of cylinder heads and maintain sufficient margin to withstand a LOOP or LOOP /LOCA event provided periodic eddy current inspections described in Figure 5-1 of Reference 1 are performed between the heads.

One block of Unit 2 Engine No.1 has been found to contain a weld repair region in cylinder No. 1.

Vogtle is planning to replace this block with a new RV-5 design.

Based on review of dimensional changes m&de in this design, and test engine experience in excess of 5000 hours0.0579 days <br />1.389 hours <br />0.00827 weeks <br />0.0019 months <br />, block top stresses are reduced from the R-4 levels thereby descreasing the possibi-lity of block top crack formation.

Assuming satisfactory inspection results from all Appendix B inspections, application of the cumulative damage algorithm as described above shows that engine operation, without subsequent inspections for 490 hours0.00567 days <br />0.136 hours <br />8.101852e-4 weeks <br />1.86445e-4 months <br /> at 100 percent power level (or operation resulting in equivalent cumulative damage) would be possible with sufficient margin remaining for a LOOP /LOCA event (Reference 2).

Therefore, the RV-5 block is acceptable for emergency standby service provided that all Appendix B inspections are completed satisfactorily and the cumulative damage algorithm as outlined in Reference 1 is applied to determine future inspection frequency period.

The informat'on provided on the following TERs has been reviewed and is consistent with the final conclusions of this repo,rt:

11-949,11-010 and 11-050.

Quality Revalidation Inspection results identified in Appendix B have been reviewed and considered in the performance of this design review and the results are consistent with the final conclusions of this report.

Based on the at,ove review and implementation of routine inspections, it is concluded that the cylinder blocks are acceptable for their intended use at Vogtle.

VEGP - UNIQUE REPORT TDI OWNERS GROUP for V0GTLE ELECTRIC GENERATING PLANT - UNIT 1 STARTING AIR MANIFOLD:

PIPING, TUBING, AND FITTINGS (LARGE BORE SCOPE ONLY)

COMPONENT PART NO. 02-441A I

INTRODUCTION The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Owners Group Program for the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant requires Design and Quality Revalidation reviews of the structural adequacy of the starting air manifold piping for the effects of normal operating and earthquake loadings.

The primary function of the starting air manifold piping is to provide adequate starting air from the off-skid supply piping to each angine cylinder.

The scope of piping embraced by this report includes the large bore (greater than 2-inch diameter) piping components as noted on the as-built information obtained during Impell field verification (Ref. 1), plus small bore piping, which was included because of the configuration.

Piping components are defined as piping spool pieces, elbows, tees, flanges, Dresser couplings and the interconnecting welds.

This scope is uniquely defined in terms of Transemerica Delaval, Inc.

(TDI) part numbers in Reference 1.

II OBJECTIVE The objective of this review was to verify the adequacy of the subject piping components for normal operating and earthquake loadings.

III METHODOLOGY The evaluation of the piping components is performed in accordance with the philosophy and intent of the ASME Code Section III, for Class 3 Nuclear Piping.- Towards this end, a criteria document was developed,

" Design Criteria for Diesel Generator Large Diameter Piping for Vogtle,"

~

which describes the background and prosides the techniques for evaluating the subject piping.

These criteria are presented in their entirety in Reference 2.

Quality Revalidation Checklist results were reviewed for acceptability.

The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Component Tracking System was reviewed for the Vogtle site, nuclear and non-nuclear industry experience.

l V03376/1

Page 2 of 3 IV RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS All piping stresses were within the design allowables specified by the ASME Section III Code.

With respect to the Dresser couplings, Impell evaluated the couplings against the manufacturer's selection and service requirements.

These include the design service conditions, relative end displacements from both translation and rotation of the joined pipes, and shelf and service life.

The movements at the Dresser couplings are within the manufactur-er's and movement requirements (Ref.

3).

There are no service life constraints (Ref. 4) because this style of coupling has no significant history of failure.

Shelf life (Ref. 4) is unlimited as long as the gaskets remain packaged and protected from the elements (light, water, etc).

The. couplings are adequate with respect to manufacturer's service condition limits.

It is recommended ~ that support modifications be effected in order to provide stiffer load paths and to relieve thermal restraint in certain directions by partial support removal through bolt hole elongations.

The support modifications are summarized in Reference 5.

Historical corrosion data for carbon steel ' starting air systems was not available.

However, the subject starting air piping and interconnecting welds have a limiting wall thickness of 5.15 times that required (Ref.

2), which should be sufficient margin against~corrcsion.

All pipe loads on the engine have been tabulated and issued for evaluation.

These evaluations were performed as part of the develop nent of reports for ccmponent Nos. 02-315A and 02-4418.

There are no TERs ast.ociated with this component.

The Quality Revalidation Inspection results identified in Appendix B have been reviewed and considered in the performance (.,f this design review,and the results are consistent with the final conclusions of this report.

Based on the above review, it is concluded that the subject piping components, with the above recommended modifications, are adequate for their intended design function at Vogtle.

EXHIBIT 2 VEGP REPORT REFERENCI11G LEAD ENGIHE REPORTS TDI OWNERS GROUP for COMANCHE PEAK STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - UNIT 1 CONNECTING ROD BEARING SHELLS COMPONENT PART NO. 02-340B I

INTRODUCTION The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Owners Group Program for the Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station requires Design and Quality Revalidation reviews of connecting rod bearing shells to determine the adequacy of their design for the intended use at Comanche Peak.

The primary function of the connecting rod bearing shells is to provide a low friction sliding l

interface between the connecting rod and the crankpin through the formation of a hydrodynamic oil film.

This interface transmits the cylinder firing pressure to the crankshaft, converting the force into torque.

The connecting rod bearing shells are manufactured by TDI from permanent mold aluminum alloy 852-T5 castings purchased from ALC0A (Ref.1).

The TDI part number for the components used at Comanche Peak is 02-340-04-AG.

II OBJECTIVE The objective of this review was to evaluate the adequacy of the connecting rod bearing shells for their intended service at the Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station.

Specifically, the following tasks were performed:

Journal orbit analysis to determine the pressure distribution in the I

l hydrodynamic oil film.

Finite element analysis to determine the stress distribution in the connecting rod bearing shells.

Fracture mechanics analysis to determine the resistance to fatigue cracking.

Computation. of acceptance criteria for radiographic NDE of connecting rod bearing shells.

Evaluation of misterial selection and dimensional accuracy.-

A review of maintenance procedures.

TDIO896/1

/

Page 2 of 3 A review of Comanche Peak site, nuclear, and non-nuclear experience.

A review of the Quality Revalidation Checklist results for acceptability.

III METHODOLOGY As described in Reference 1, the design review of connecting rod bearing shells consisted of several steps.

First, laboratory investigations of wear patterns, chemical, metallurgical and physical properties were conducted.

A journal orbit analysis, using dimensions, weights, and weight distributions for DSRV-16-4 engines, as well as engine operation parameters, was performed.

The output of the journal orbit analysis, which is the pressure distribution in the oil film under conditions of ideal geometry, was modified based on observed babbit contact patterns to provide input data to the finite element analysis using the ANSYS code.

The stress distribution computed by the finite element analysis was used to calculate the fatigue life of the connecting rod bearing shells based on nuclear site experience.

The stress distribution was also used to calculate the maximum discontinuity that could be present without decreasing the fatigue resistance.

The material selection was evaluated with respect to friction coefficient, and resistance to corrosion, fatigue and wear.

Dimensional accuracy was evaluated from TER inspection results.

Details of the methodology and analysis are contained in Reference 1.

The applicability of the analysis to Comanche Peak was determined.

The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Component Tracking System was reviewed for the Comanche Peak, nuclear, and non-nuclear industry experience.

IV RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Calculation of the maximum tensile stress in the connecting rod bearing shells in DSRV-16-4 engines, in combination with other nuclear experience, was used to predict a fatigue life of about 38,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> for the DSRV-16-4 bearing shells (Ref.1 and 3).

This fatigue life, which safely exceeds the expected usage of the engines during t. 3 operational life of the station, can be assured if an approved radiographic procedure such as Failure Analysis Associates' " Radiographic Examination of Diesel Engine Upper and Lower Bearing Shells," (Ref. 2) is followed.

Design and operating parameters for the Comanche Peak DSRV-16-4 engines (Ref.

4) were compared to the generic analysis of Ref.

1.

Those parameters were found ts be within 5 percent of the generic case, confirming the applicability of the generic analysis to Comanche Peak.

l 0

TOIO896/2

Page 3 of 3 The material selection was appropriate based on professional judgment and experience with similar bearings.

Dimensional accuracy was verified as summarized in Appendix B.

The wear resistance of the connecting rod bearings has been proven adequate in nuclear experience, provided all TDI recommended lubricating oil maintenance procedures (Ref. 4) are followed.

The connecting rod bearing shells should be inspected visually and dimensionally to verify lubrication maintenance which affects wear rate.

The visual and dimensional inspection of the bearing shells should be conducted at the fuel outage which precedes 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> of operation by at least the sum of expected hours of operation in a LOOP /LOCA event plus the expected hours of operation between outages.

The information provided on the following TERs has been reviewed and is consistent with the final conclusions of this report:

10-079,10-008, 10-026.

Quality Revalidation Inspection results identified in Appendix B have been reviewed and considered in the performance of this design review and the results are consistent with the final conclusions of this report.

Based on the above review and assuming implementation of the radiographic acceptance criteria, it is concluded that the connecting rod bearing shells are acceptable for their intended use at Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station.

TDI OWNERS GROUP for SHOREHAM NUCLEAR POWER STATION - UNIT 1 CONNECTING ROD BEARING SHELLS COMPONENT PART NO. 03-340-B I

INTRODUCTION The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Owners Group Program for the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station requires Design and Quality Revalidation reviews of the connecting rod bearing shells to determine the adequacy of its design for the intended use at Shoreham.

The primary function of the connecting rod bearing shells is to provide a low-friction sliding interface between the connecting rod and the crankpin, through the formation of a hydrodynamic oil film, which transmits the cylinder firing pressure to the crankshaft, converting the force into torque.

The connecting rod bearing shells are manufactured by TDI from permanent mold aluminum alloy B-852-T5 castings purchased from ALC0A (Ref. 1).

The TDI part number for the components used at the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station is 03-340-05-AE.

II OBJECTIVES The objective of this review was to evaluate the adequacy of the connecting rod bearing shells for their intended service at the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station.

Specifically, the objective was to perform the following analyses:

o Journal orbit analysis to determine the pressure distribution in the hydrodynamic oil film.

o Finite element analysis to determine the stress distribution in the connecting rod bearing shells.

I o

Fracture mechanics analysis to determine the resistance to fatigue cracking.

o Computation of acceptance criteria for radiograph'ic HDE of connecting rod bearing shells.

o Evaluation of babbitt adhesion.

o A review of maintenance procedures.

o A

review of

nuclear, non-nuclear and Shoreham site experience.

TDI4-231

Page 2 of 3 III METHODOLOGY _

As described in Reference 1 Report on connecting rod bearing shells, the analysis consisted of several steps.

First, laboratory investigation of wear
patterns, chemical, metallurgical and physical properties, and fracture surface morphology were conducted.

Journal orbit analysis, using dimensions, weights and weight distributions confirmed by direct measurement at Shoreham, as well as engine operating parameters from the Shoreham engines, was performed.

The output of the journal orbit analysis, which is the pressure distribution in the oil film under conditions of ideal geometry, was modified based on observed babbitt contact patterns to provide the input data to finite element analysis using the ANSYS code.

The stress distribution corputed by the finite element analysis was used to calculate the fatigue life of the connecting rod bearing shells based on the Shoreham experience with the bearing

shells, and to calculate the maximum discontinuity that could be present without decreasing the fatigue resistance.

The influence of babbitt adhesion was assessed by inspection of bearing shells with marginal babbit adhesion after significant exposure to operating conditions in the Shoreham diesel engines.

Details of the methodology and analysis are contained in the Reference 1 Reports.

IV RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS:

Comparison of the maximum tensile stress in the original and the current connecting rod bearing shells at Shoreham shows that the stress is reduced by 50 percent in the replacement bearing shells (Ref. 1).

This result was used to predict a fatigue life of about 38,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> for the current bearing shells.

This fatigue

life, which safely exceeds the expected usage of the engines during the 40-year operational life of the plant (Ref. 1), can be assured if an approved radiographic procedure such as Failure Analysis Associates

" Nondestructive Examination of Diesel. Engine Upper and Lower Bea* ring Shells" (Ref. 2) followed.

This procedure has been reviewed and approved by LILCO, and is followed at Shoreham.

The recommendation is implemented in E&DCR F-46505 (Ref. 4).

Babbitt adhesion was found to be adequate for successful functioning of the connecting rod bearing shells at Shoreham.

The normal inspection intervals are adequate to monitor performance of the babbitt overlay.

Quality Revalidation Inspection results identified in Appendix B

have been reviewed and considered in the performance of this design review and the results are consistent with the final conclusions of this report.

TDI4-231

Page 3 of 3 Based on the above review and implementation of the radiographic acceptance criteria, it is concluded that the connecting rod bearing shell is acceptable for its intended desir,n function at Shoreham.

TDI OWNERS GROUP for COMANCHE PEAK STEAM ELECTRIC STATION - UNIT 1 INTAKE /IN1ERMEDIATE AND EXHAUST ROCKER SHAFT ASSEMBLIES COMPONENT PART N0s. 02-390A and 02-3908 I

INTRODUCTION The TDI Emergency Diesel Generator Owners Group Program for the Comanche Peak Steam Electric Station requires a Design and Quality Revalidation review to determine the adequacy of the intake / intermediate and exhaust rocker shaft assemblies for their intended use at Comanche Peak.

The pri-mary function of the intake / intermediate and exhaust rocker shaft assem-blies is to translate the motion of the main pushrods into the reciprocating motion of the intake and exhaust valves and connector pushrod.

The part numbers for the rocker shafts as assigned by the manufacturer, TDI, are 1A-5532 and 1A-5465.

II OBJECTIVE The objective is to evaluate the adequacy of the rocker shafts for their intended use at Comanche Peak.

Specifically, the following tasks were performed:

Review of Comanche Peak site, nuclear and non-nuclear industry.

Evaluation of state of stress in rocker shaft assemblies.

Evaluation of resistance to bending and fatigue.

. Review of pushrod socket installation.

Evaluation of load in rocker arm assembly and pushrod sockets.

Evaluation of rocker shaft supports.

Review of Quality Revalidation Checklist results for acceptability.

~

III METHODOLOGY The Emergency Diesel Generator Component Tracking System. records for Comanche Peak were reviewed to determine the nuclear, non-nuclear, and specific Comanche Peak experience of the rocker shaft assemblies.

The calculations for loads and stresses of rocker arms at the Shoreham Nuclear Power Station were used for this analysis.

The rocker arms used at Comanche Peak are nearly identical to those used at Shoreham with any differences being judged inconsequential to the results of these calculatiens (Ref. 1).

Page 2 of 3 i

A theoretical model was developed to compute the dynamic response of the valve systems, and to estimate the pushrod, rocker arm, and shaft forces.

These forces were used to conduct a stress analysis of the rocker shaft assemblies, and to evaluate their resistance to fatigue.

The bearing stresses on the rocker shaft support were calculated in order to verify that resistance to lateral loads on the rocker arms is provided by 1) the friction forces between the rocker support and shaft i

assemblies, and 2) the rocker shaft and support dowel and not by bearing between the rocker shaft bolt and the support.

IV RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The maximum pushrod and rocker arm forces were computed (Ref. 2).

These forces were used to compute the peak shear and bending stresses in the rocker shaft assemblies.

The maximum shear stress was found to be 7.9 ksi, and the maximum bending stress was found conservatively to be 24 ksi.

These are both below the endurance limit stresses of 19.2 ksi for shear and 30 ksi for bending (Ref. 2).

I Conservative stress analysis of the intake, intermediate, and exhaust rocker arms indicate a minimum factor of safety against failure of 1.1 (Ref. 2).

The forces acting on the pushrod sockets induce stresses in i

the sockets (59.2 ksi max, Ref. 2) which are below the allowable of 200 ksi.

The capscrew (P/N 02-390-05-AA) connecting the rocker shaft to the rocker support is torqued to 365 ft-lb (Ref. 2), which develops a tensile preload of 21.9 kips (Ref. 2).

This is sufficient to provide frictional resistance to lateral forces on the intake rocker-side of both rocker shaft assemblies.

On the other side (intermediate rocker), the support dowel (P/N 03-362-01-08) is engaged by the rocker shaft end, and transfers the shear from the rocker shaft to the sub-base assembly boss.

The shear resistance supplied by friction at this end is minimal, due to the uplift forces on the rocker shaft by the main exhaust and intermediate pushrods (Ref. 2), and calculations indicate that these shear stresses exceed the endurance limit stress for the dowel at full engine load (Ref.

2).

However, there is no evidence (nuclear or non-nuclear) indicating dowel failures.

Specifically, Shoreham experience indicates that approximately 400 hours0.00463 days <br />0.111 hours <br />6.613757e-4 weeks <br />1.522e-4 months <br /> (Ref. 3 and 4) have been logged on these dowels at full ~ engine load.

Recognizing that the pushrod loads and material strengths used in the calculations may be conservative, and that the dowels have been subjected to more than 5 x 10s cycles at full load without failures, it is concluded that the dowels are capable of transferring the shear loads to the sub-base assembly.

The information provided on the following TERs has been reviewed and is consistent with the final conclusions of this report:

10-005,10-006, 10-097.

Quality Revalidation Inspection results identified in Appendix B have

'been reviewed and considered in the performance of this review.

These results are consistent with the final conclusion of this report.

TDIO900/2

Page 3 of 3 Based on the above design

review, it is concluded that the intake / intermediate and exhaust rocker shaft assemblies are acceptable for their intended design function at Comanche Peak.
