1 INTRODUCTION In the event of a Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) in a Boiling Water Reactor J (BWR) nuclear power plant, insulation installed on piping can reach the wetwell which supplies water to the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS). This insulation combined with corrosion products and other debris can migrate and block strainers installed on suction lines supplying the ECCS pumps. Relatively sma'l amounts of glass fiber insulation combined with corrosion products have been shown to result in significant pressure drop across a strainer screen. An alternate suction strainer design, the Sure-Flow" strainer, was provided by PCI to evaluate its performance under different flow and debris loads. From 28 through 30 October 1996, Continuum Dynamics,Inc. conducted a series of tests on this strainer.

l Tests were conducted at the Electric Power Research Institute Non Destructive l Evaluation Center in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Testing was conducted following the Plan for Testing PCI Strainer, Revision 1,28 October 1996 (Ref.1). Test procedures and materials essentially duplicated BWROG procedures and materials for strainer testing.

l TEST FACILITY A schematic of the test facility is shown in Figure 2-1. The strainer was mounted honzontally to a 24 inch tee in a nominally 50,000 gallon vessel. Typically, the (

vessel was filled with 40,000 gallons of water. Two centrifugal pumps capable of producing 10,000 GPM were used to provide system flow controlled by valves on the pump outlets. The flow returned to the vessel through a venturi and then through a pipe whose exit was centered in the vessel and directed down toward the floor.

This pipe orientation prevented material from settling on the vessel floor.

The piping configuration also allowed the strainer to be backflushed. Backflush flowrates up to 5000 GPM can be obtained, but backflush duration is often limited because debris from the vessel can be pulled inside the strainer because of the location of the backflush inlet pipe (see Figure 2-1),

instrumentation A schematic illustrating the instrument locations is shown in Figure 2-2. The head loss across the strainer and debris bed is measured by a Rosemount 1151 smart

! differential pressure transmitter that is connected to the blind flange of the strainer tee. The flow rate is measured by the venturiin the return leg of the piping and another a Rosemount 1151 smart differential pressure transmitter. The outputs of these transmitters were connected through Sensotec GMA displays and amplifiers (0.2% accuracy) to a computer controlled DATAQ DI-22012 bit data acquisition

! system.

Fiber, simulated corrosion products and RMI were weighed on an Ohaus i

model DSIOL scale and water temperature was measured with a thermometer.

Table 2-1 lists the instruments used in the test program.

I Debris Materials NUKONS Base WoolInsulation was used as the fibrous insulation for this test program. The insulation was supplied, prepared and weighed by PCI and supplied ,

l in 25 pound bags. Samples of the insulation were collected to provide an estimate of the size distribution. An analysis of the shredded fibers showed a similar size distribution as was used in the BWROG tests.

I l 2-2

Test Facility Black Iron Oxides obtained from Hansen Engineering,Inc. were used to simulate corrosion products with a distribution of 95% Grade 2008 and 5% Grade 9101-N-40 by weight .

Reflective Metal Insulation (RMI) was also used during testing. Stainless steel foils with a thickness of 2.5 mils were supplied by Darchem Engineering, Ltd. The foils were cut into nominally 3/8,3/4,1.5,3, and 6 inch squares and then crumpled to simulate RMI debris. The material was purchased and processed by EPRI. Based on EPRI documentation, the two smallest size categories were crumpled by the garden / leaf shredder and the remaining sizes were crumpled by band. The resulting RMI debris was similar to the RMI used in the BWROG tests.

(

Summary of Test Procedures The test procedures duplicated the test p:ocedures used in the BWROG strainer tests. The procedures are sununarized below.

The main test procedure defines the steps necessary to perform one complete test for measuring strainer head loss. The main steps in this procedure include system start up, material addition, data acquisition, flow rate control, backflushing and test temunation. Data acquisition is started before the pumps are turned on and material is added to the vessel after the flow rate has been established. The time of material introduction is recorded. The amount of material added is determined by the test matrix. Simulated corrosion products are always added first and allowed to mix in the vessel before the other debris is added. Simulated corrosion products are added dry, while shredded fiber is soaked first to ensure it will sink.

Dunng a test the flow rate is maintained at a nearly constant value determined by the test matrix, unless the strainer maximum pressure drop is reached or the manmum pump flow is achieved. After the strainer head loss has reached approximately steady state, the flow rate can be adjusted down and up (a flow sweep) to obtain head loss at different flow rates, and if required, the strainer can be backflushed. The strainer is backflushed by shutting off the pumps and reconfigunng the valves so that pump #2 can pull water from the backflush line into the strainer. Pump #2 is turned on and then the backflush valve is opened until the backflush gauge reads the pressure corresponding to the desired flowrate.

Tne flow is then maintained at this flowrate for the desired time. A run is ter:ninated when the strainer head loss reaches approximately steady state or a determined value of head loss has been achieved (after conducting eny required fhw sweeps or backflush). After test termination, a backup copy of the digitally recorded data is made and the ending water temperature is taken.

l Daily procedures are followed to check the differential pressure transducers and l data acquisition system. Differential pressure cell zeros and known water height readings are taken and compared to the transducer output. The output of the data 2-3

Test Facility .

acquisition system is also checked to insure it is operating correctly and that the

, instruments are correctly connected. Periodic confidence checks on the scales and thermometer are also conducted as required.  !

i i Also associated with each main test procedure is a material preparation procedure which defines how much materialis to be added to the vessel. This l' procedure defines the methods to identify and quantify the fibrous insulation, simulated corrosion products and other debris to be used for each test. Samplds of fibrous insulation prepared by PCI were taken to characterize its size distribution.

RMI was provided by EPRI in boxes marked with th.e square feet of area and was not weighed. All material used in the program is identified by a unique number.  ;

Data is stored on disk as voltages from the differential pressurc transducers.

Using the calibration curves for each instrument, the voltages are converted to engineering units (either inches of water or' gallons per minute). The clean head i loss as a function of flow rate is subtracted from each head loss data point to obtain the head loss across the debris bed. The data is plotted in Appendix A as a funct:on  ;

of time and approximate steady state values are tabulated in Section 4.  ;

4 TEST DATA-L Table 4-1 summarizes the data collected from the test program. The table contains specific information about each test including run number, run date, flow $

l rates tested, mass of insulation and corrosion products used (if applicable), amount of RMI, the average water temperature and the steady state differential pressure across the strainer (head loss) for that condition. All of the tabulated head loss' values represent the head loss across the fiber / debris bed. The head loss of the clean strainer has been subtracted (except for the baseline, clean strainer case.)

Flots for each of the runs are included in Appendix A. The plots show the strainer differential pressure and the corresponding flow rate as a function of time.

Material addition times and other run specific notes are indicated on the plots. The

. strainer differential pressure represents the head loss across the debris bed only,

" clean" head loss has been subtracted out.

The data contained in the tables and the plots in the Appendix have been verified according to C.D.I. Quality Assurance procedures. Notes for each run are provided below.

Run PC11 Tne first run was conducted from 1250 GPM to 10,000 GPM with no debris in the tank. From these data the clean head loss as a function of flow rate is determined so that the clean strainer head loss can be subtracted at any flow rate.

This clean head loss run was conducted with a lower water level than usual to check if air would be sucked in from the free surface. The centerline of the strainer

.was 95.5 inches above the tank floor, and the water level was measured at .

165.8 inches by the DP1 transducer, which was mounted approximately 8 inches above the tank floor. With approximately 58 inches of water above the top of the strainer, no vortexing (or air being sucked into the strainer from the free surface) was visually apparent over the range of tested flowrates.

Run PCl2 .

This test was run with 25 pounds of fiber,100 pounds of corrosion product and 800 square feet of RMI. The RMI was evenly divided into 3/8,3/4,1.5,3 and 6 inch square pieces that were crumpled. After the corrosion products were added and  !

allowed to circulate the fiber and RMI were added together.

Run PCl3 l This test was conducted with fiber alone. The initial increment was 100 pounds, subsequent increments were 50 pounds. Fiber was added after approximately steady state head loss was reached for each increment. The head loss increased essentially d linearly for each 50 pound increment, see Table 4-1 and Appendix A. 1 Run PCl4 This test was conducted with 100 pounds of fiber and 100 pounds of corrosion l products.

l Run PCl5 l This run was conducted with 200 pounds of fiber and 100 pounds of corrosion l products. Initially, the flow rate was set at 4400 GPM to form the debris bed. The  ;

flow rate was reduced to 4000 GPM to maintain the head loss below the maximum ,

allowed for the strainer.
