i ANF 88-133 Page 1 1.0 INTRCDUCTION 4

This document prsJents the results of a large break loss-of coolant accident (LOCA) analysis for the Millstone Unit 2 reactor.

The analysis was performed to support operation vith a mixed core or a core containing only ANF fuel.

Break spectrum calculations were performed to determine the limiting break size.

The break spectrum calculations included 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0 double ended cold-leg guillotine (DECLG) break sizes and 0.4, 0.8, and 1.0 double ended cold leg-sp?it (DECLS) break sizes.

Calculations were also performed which considered axial power shapes, exposure, and full power operation with a reduced primary coolant temperature of up to 12*F.

(

2.0 SUMARY OF RESULTS 4

The results of the analysis indicated the limiting break size was the 0.6 DECLG b*eak.

The Peak Cladding Temperature (PCT) for the limiting case was I

calculated to be 2163'F.

The PCT for a 12'F reduction in primary coolant temperature was calculated to be 2176*F.

The analysis supports full power cperation at 2754 MWt (2700 MWt plus 2%

unc6rtainty) with an average steam generator tube plugging of 23.5% with a maximum asymmetry of 5.9%.

The analysis supports assembly average exposures of up to 52,500 mwd /MTU.

The analysis also supports operation at full power, i

aith a primary coolant T,y, reduction of up to 12*F.

The analysis demonstrates that the 10 CFR 50.46(b) criteria are satisfied for the Millstone j

Unit a reacter with an axial and exposure independent LHR of 15.1 kW/f t as shown in Figure 2.1.

3.0 ANALYSIS The purpose of the LBLOCA analysis is to demonstrate that the criteria stated in 10 CFR 50.46(b) are met. The criteria are:

1.

The eticulated peak fuel element <,1 adding temperature does not exceed the 2200'F limit.

2.

The amount of fuel element cladding which reacts chemically with water c

  • steam does not exceed 1% of the total smount of zircaloy in the core.

3.

The clariding temperature tresient is terminated at a time when.the core geometry is still cmenable to cooling.

The hot fuel rod cladding oxidation limit of 17% is not exceeded during or after qsenching.

4.

The core temperature is reduced and decay heat is removed for an extended period of tire, a5 required by the long-lived radioactivity remaining in the core.

Ctetion 3.1 of this report provides a description of the postulated large break loss c'-coolant transient.

Sectiori 3.2 describes the analytical models used in the analysis.

Section 3.3 provides a description of ths Millstone Unit 2 pl:nt and a summary of the system parameters used in the LOCA analysis.

Section 3.4 provides a summary of the results of the break spectrum calculations.

Section 3.5 summarizes the results of the axial power shape I

study.

Section 3.6 sumrurizes the results of the exposure analysis.

Section 3.7 surnmarizes '.he results of an analysis to support full poa.t operation with a rertuced primary coolani, temperature of 12*F.

3.1 Ee.Lqrjption of (Bleu Trgen_1.

A loss of-coolant accident (LOCA) is defined as the rupture of the Reactor Coolant System primary piping up to and inclurting a doub,e-ended guillotine break.

The limiting break occurs on the pump discharge side of a cold leg pipe.

Loss of-offsite power is assumed to occur co-incident with

y ANF-88-118 Page 4 the LOCA.

Primary coolant pump coastdown occurs co-incident with the loss of-offsite power.

Following the break, depressurization of the reactor coolant system, including the pressurizar, occurs.

A reactor trip signal occurs when i

l the pressurizer low pressure trip setpoint is reached.

Reactor trip and scram are conservatively neglected in the LOCA analysis.

Early in the blowdown, the reactor core experiences flow reversal and stagnation which causes the fuel rods to pass through critical heat flux (CHF).

Following CHF, the fuel rods dissipate heat through the transition and film boiling modes of heat transfer.

Rewet is precluded during blowdown by Appendix K of 10 CFR 50.

i A Safety Injection System (SIS) signal is actuated when the appropriate seisoint (high containment pressure) is reached.

Due to loss of offsite I

power, a time delay for startup of diesel generators and SIS pumps is assumed.

Once the time delay criteria is met and the system pressure falls below the l

shutoff head of the High Pressure Safety injection (HPSI) pumps and Low I

Pressure. Safety Injection (LPSI) pumps, SIS flow is injected into the cold i

legs.

Single failure criteria is met by assuming that one diesel fails.

This results in the loss of one HPSI pump and one LPSI pump.

When the system pressure falls below the Safety injection Tank (SIT) pressure, flow from the Safety Injection Tanks is injected into the cold legs.

Flow from the l

l Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS)is assumed to bypass the core ar.4 flow to l

l the break until the end of bypass (E0BY) is predicted to occur (sustained l

downfiow in the downcomer).

Following E0BY, ECCS flow f. ills the downcomer and

[

lower plenum until the liquid evel reaches the bottom of the core (beginning-l of core-recovery or BOCREC time).

During the refill period, heat is transferred from the fuel rods by radiation heat transfer.

i The reflood period begins at BOCREC time.

ECCS fluid fills the downcomer and provides the driving head to move coolant through the core.

As the l

milture level moves up the core, steam is generated.

Steam binding occurs as the steam flows through the intact and broken loop steam generators and pumps.

[

The p9mps are assumed to have a locked rotor (per Appendix K of 10 CFR 50)

I which tends to reduce the reflood rate.

The fuel rods are eventually cooled j

l i

1 i

ANF-88-ll8 Page 5 and quenched by radiation and convective heat transfer as the quench front moves up the core.

The reflood heat transfer rate is predicted through experimentally determined heat transfer and carry-over rate fraction correlations.

3.2 Descrietion of Analytical Models The ANF EXEM/PWR evaluation model II) was used to perform the analysis.

This evaluation model consists of the following computer codes:

(1)

R00EX2(2) for computation of initial fuel stored energy, fission gas release, and gap conductance; (2)

RELAP4-EM for the system and hot channel blowdown calculations; (3) CONTEMPT /LT-22 as modi fied in accordance with NRC Branch Technical Position CSB 6-1 for computation of containment back pressure; (4) REFLEX for computation of system reflood; and (5) T000EE2 for the calculation of fuel rod heatap during the refill and reflood portions of the LOCA transient.

The quench

time, quench velc:ity, and carryover rate fraction (CRF) correlations in REFLEX, and the heat transfer correlations in T00DEE2 are based on ANF's Fuel Cooling Test Facility (FCTF) data.

I The governing conservation equations for mass, energy, and momentum transfer are used along with appropriate correlations consistent with Appendix K of 10 CFR 50.

The reactor co'e in RELAP4 is modeled with heat generation rates determined from reactor kinetics equations with reactivity feedback, and t31th actinide and decay heating as required by Appendix K.

Appropriate conservatisms specified by Appendix K of 10 CIR 50 are ir.corporated in all of the EXEM/PWR models.

3.3 Plant Descriotion and Summary of Analysis Parameters The Millstone Unit 2 nuclear power plant is a Combustion Engineering (CE) designed pressurized water reactor which has two hot leg pipes, two U tube f

steam generators, and four cold leg pipes with one recirculation pump in each cold leg.

The plant utilizes a large dry containment.

The reactcr coolant i

s.vstem is nodalized into control volumes representing reasonably homogeneous

[

regions, interconnected by flow paths or "junctions".

The two cold legs

[

l connected to the intact loop steam generator were assumed to bo symmetrical and were modeled as one intact cold leg with appropriately scaled input.

The model considers four Safety Injection Tanks, a pressurizer, and two steam' gener.itors with both primary and secondary sides of the steam generators 3

modeled.

The HP31 and LPSI pumps were mcdried as fill junctions at the SIT lines, with conservative flows given as a function of system back-pressure.

The pump performance curves were characteristic of CE pumps.

The reactor core was modeled radially with an average core and a hot assembly as carallel flow I

channels, each with three axial nodes.

A steam generator tube plugging level

)

of 23.5% was assumed with a maximum asymatry of 5.9%.

The break was i

conservatively assumed to have occurred in the most highly plugged loop since this results in more steam binding during reflood and a higher peak cladding I

temperature.

Values for system parameters used in the analysis are given in Table 3.1.

(

3.4 Break Soectrum Results Calculations were performed for 0.4. 0.6, 0.8 ar.d 1.0 DECLG break sizes and 0.4, 0.8, and 1.0 DECLS break sizes with an axial power shape peaked at a relative core height of 0.6 to determine the limiting break.

The break spectrum calculations were performed at a peak LHR of 15.6 kW/ft.

Beginning-of-Cycle (B0C) stored energy (where rAximum densification occurs at a hot rod average burnup of about 2000 mwd /MTU) was conservatively used in all of the break spectrum calculations.

Calculations were performed through the I

ANF 88 118 Page 7 blowdown, refill, and reflood periods of tha LOCA transient for all break d

sizes.

The results of the break spectrum study are shown in Table 3.2.

Calculated event times for the various break sizes are given in Tables 3.3 through 3.9.

The results indicated the 0.6 DECLG break size to be the l

limiting. break.

The peak cladding temperature (PCT) for the 0.6 DECLG break l

with an axial power shape peaked at a relative core height of 0.6 was l

calculated to be 1892*F. Thus, a maximum LHR of 15.6 kW/ft is supported up to l

a relative core height of 0.6.

3.5 Axial Shane Study Results Axial shape and exposure studies were performed at the limiting 0.6 DECLG j

break size. Conservative combinations of stored energy and axial power shapes

-ve ana'lyzed to bound the effects of axial power shape and exposures from BOC to EOC, In addition to the axial shape which was used in the break spectrum j

study, peaked at a relative core height of 0.6, bounding axial shapes j

representative of MOC and EOC were determined from projected axial shapes for equilibrium and xenon oscillation transient condition:;.

Two conservative i

. combinations of stored energy and axiai shape were analyzed.at a peak LHR of f

15.1 kW/f t.

They are (1) a BOC stored energy (where maximum densification l

occurs),:ombined with a MOC shape peaked at a relative core height of 0.81, and (2) a MOC stored energy combined with an EOC shape peaked at a relative i

core height of 0.9.

The results of these two calculations are shown in Table 3.10.

Case I was determined to be the limiting case with a PCT of 2163'F.

[

I l

j These calculations support a peak LHR of 15.1 kW/ft that is independent of j

axial position and exposure over the exposure range of BOC to E0C.

Plots of parameters depicting the calculations for case 1 at the limiting 0.6 DECLG f

break size are shown in Figures 3.1 through 3.25.

i 3.6 Excosure Study Results i

i The calculations described in Section 3.5 support exposures out to EOC.

l An additional calculation was performed to support assembly average exposures up to 52,500 Mdd/MTV.

This one additional calculation was sufficient to i

support assembly average exposu.es up to 52,500 mwd /MTV for the following i

{

t

~

a in 1

ANF-88-ll8 Page 8 reasons.

Fuel rod stored energy decreases with exposure (after peak stored energy occurs at maximum densification near BOC) out to exposures of about 40,000 mwd /MTU due to closure of the pellet cladding gap.

Beyond exposures of I

about 40,000 mwd /MTV, the stored energy increases again due to fission gas release to the gap, but is still significantly less than the stored energy at MOC.

1he rod internal pressure increases beyond exposures of about 20,000 l

mwd /MTU which tends to decrease the time of cladding rupture and also increase the pellet cladding gap which retards heat release during blowdown.

Thus, stored energy and rod internal pressure at an exposure of 52,500 mwd /MTU bound exposures between HOC and 52,500 mwd /MTV.

The PCT calculated at an assembly l

exposure of 52,500 mwd /MTV was compared to the PCT for Case 2 described in i

Section 3.5 to verify that the PCT for exposures greater than EOC are less than PCTs calculated for exposures from BOC to EOC. The PCT at an exposure of

[

52,500 mwd /MTU was calculated to be 1839'F.

Therefore, a peak LHR of 15.1 i

kW/ft is supported for assembly average exposures up to 52,500 mwd /MTV.

j i

3.7 Reduced T,y, Ooeration Results l

Calculations were performed to support full power operation with a reduced primary coolant temperature of up to 12'F.

A 12'F reduction in primary temperature has a small effect on the blowdown hydraulics and a small

[

adverse effect on containment pressure, reflood rate, and PCT.

The lower l

initial coolant enthalpy results in a slightly lower containment pressure which results in a lower reflood rate and a higher PCT.

Calculations were i

perfermed to estimate the reduced containment pressure and its effect on reflood rate and PCT, Calculations were performed for the limiting case (0.6

(

DECLG break, BOC stored energy with an MOC axial power shape) to determine the change in PCT due to the reduced primary coolant temperature.

The PCT was calculated to be 2176'F.

All 10 CFR 50.46(b) criteria are met.

A reduction in primary coolant temperature greater than 12'F is acceptable as long as there is a corresponding decrease in power level,

4.0 CONCLUSION

S The results of the large break LOCA analysis for Millstone Unit 2 showed the 0.6 DECLG break size to be the limiting break with current EXEM/PWR models. The analysis supports operation (! Millstone Unit 2 at a power level of 2700 MWt and an average steam generator tube plugging level of 23.5% with a.

maximum asymmetry of 5.9%.

The analysis supports a peak LHR of 15.1 kW/ft with an axial and exposure independent power peaking limit as shown in Figure 2.1.

The analysis supports assembly average exposures of up to 52,500 mwd /MTV. The analysis supports full power operation with a reduced primary coolant temperature of up to 12'F.

A reduction in primary coolant temperature greater than 12*F is acceptable as long as there is a corresponding decrease in power level. The analysis supports Cycle 10 operation and is intended to support operation for future cycles.

Operation of Millstone Unit 2 with ANF 14x14 fuel at or below the LHR limit shown in Figure 2.1 assures that the NRC acceptance criteria (10 CFR 50.46(b)) for loss of Coolant Accident pipe breaks up to and including the double-ended severance of a reactor coolant pipe will be met with the emergency core cooling system for Millstone Unit 2.
