-SHEET I OF 6 A. Statement of Problem It is necessary to calculate the head loss due to LOCA-generated debris on the suction strainers for the RHR and Core Spray pumps. The debris is a postulated value for the bounding accident condition that displaces the largest volume of fiberglass pipe insulation.

The head loss is then compared to the minimum available margin for LOCA debris on the suction strainers.

B. Summary of Results and Recommendations The postulated volume of LOCA-generated debris from [Ref.1] is 23 ff. Applying the entire volume to one strainer with 2 RHR and 1 Core Spray pump operating at maximum flow, the head loss due solely to the debris is less than 0.01 ft. The minimum available margin for LOCA debris for the limiting Core Spray pump is greater than 2 fl based on only the containment pressure available prior to the accident (0.5 psig) and is equal to 0.9 feet assuming zero positive pressure following a DBA-LOCA [Ref. 4]. Therefore, there is adequate NPSH margin to accommodate the postulated debris loading without affecting pump performance.

C. Method of Solution The postulated volume of LOCA-generated debris was taken from the [Ref.1] analysis which was ;>erformed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.82 Rev.1 [Ref. 2). The total volume ofinsulation displaced is applied uniformly to one strainer along with blockage of 5% of the screen area by fabric. The head loss due to the debris is calculated using the correlation given in NUREG-0897 Rev.1 [Ref. 3] for low density fiberglass.

The head loss is then compared with the available margin for LOCA debris given in Calculation M-662 [Ref. 4].

D. Input Data and Assumptions

l. The RHR and Core Spray pumps are operating at their maximum flow rates. .
2. The greatest head loss occurs when 2 RHR pumps and 1 Core Spray pump are operating on one suction strainer.
3. The minimum available margin for LOCA debris NPSHu is taken from [Ref. 4] for the original FSAR Design Basis LOCA case of 166 F peak suppression pool temperature with a 65"F heat sink [Ref. 6].
4. The LOCA debris volume from [Ref.1] is based on Regulatory Guide 1.82 Rev.1 (Ref. 2].

E. Calculations / Analyses The GE Report [Ref.1] determined that the maximum volume of shredded fiberglass debris generated from a bounding line break inside primary containment is 23 ft' .

The following maximum pump flow rates will be used: ,

t RIIR = 5,100 gpm x2 = 10,200 gpm ,

Core Spray = 4,400 gpm x1 = 4,400 gpm Total Flow = 14,600 gpm The " strainer flow velocity" is defined as follows:

I' = (G x 1/7.4805 x 1/60) (ft/sec) Eq. I >

A 2

where: A = 636 fl (see Note 1)

O = 14,600 gpm (see Note 2)

1. For the calculation of strainer velocity, the strainer is assumed to have 5% of surface area completely blocked by fiberglass fabric in addition to insulation debris ,

~

2

[Ref.1], The strainer wetted surface area of perforated plate is 670 ft [Ref. 5].

2 This yields a strainer net area of(670)*(0.95) = 636 f1

2. Total flow through one strainer is based on 2 RHR and 1 Core Spray pump operating simultaneously.

. t = 0.0362 ft From NUREG-0897 Rev.1 [Ref. 3], the correlation equation for the head loss due to low density fiberglass insulation is:

hDEBMs = 68.3(V)3 79 *(t)1.07 (R) Eq.3 hogsms = 68.3(0.0511)I'79 *(0.0362)l.07 ,

hDEmus = 0.0096 A From Calculation M-662, Table 5 [Ref. 4], the minimum available margin for LOCA debris for the limiting Core Spray pump is:

I NPSHu = 2.15 n @ 0.5 psig Wetwell Pressure NPSHu = 0.96 A @ 0.0 psig Wetwell Pressure This 2.15 A NPSH margin is very conservatively based on only the containment pressure available prior to the accident while the 0.96 A margin is based on zero positive pressure following a DB A-LOCA . Therefore, there is adequate NPSH margin to accommodate the postulated debris without affecting pump performance.
