. Sufficiency of Data and Adequacy of RELAP5 l

Sufficiency of the Data Base and the Adeauacy of the RELAPS Code for AP600 SBLOCA Have Been Established Based on Different, But Mutually Supportina Technical Bases.

e The AP600 Test Facilities Were Constructed to Preserve Geometric, j Kinematics, and Energy Similarities.

The Details of the Scaling Methods Were Different in Each Facility and Each ['

Facility Has Known Scaling Distortions, Yet the Results From the Three Facilities for the SBLOCA Experiments Were Comparable.

e The Transients Before ADS Activation Are Very Similar to Existing Plants. We Have More Than 20 Years of Extensive Experimental and l

Code Development Work. The Code Can Handle These High Pressure Blowdown Phases.

e The ADS System Makes Various SBLOCA Transient to Converge into j a LBLOCA Scenario. j i i

Sufficiency of Data and Adequacy of RELAP5

~

(Continued) .

In the Ensuing Presentations, We Will Present the Supporting Bases For Data Sufficiency and Code Adequacy:

e W. Wulff & S. Baneriee's Presentations Will Show That The Major FI Groups for AP600 and the Test Facilities Are in the Same Range Such That Similar Phenomena Dominated the Transients. This Also Shows That On Global Level, the Facility Design Simulate AP600.

j e M. Ortiz's Presentation Will Show That By Comparing the Solution of the Control Volume Balance Equation for the Dominant Parameters, it is Possible to Demonstrate the Similarity of the Transients in AP600 and Facilities.

e M. diMarzo & D. Bessette 's Presentation on Experimental Data Evaluation Will Show That, Within the Limit of the Scaling Study, the Data Collectively, Identified Major Phenomena, Processes and Trends, and Provided Quantitative Measure of Transients.

Sufficiency of Data and Adequacy of RELAP5 (Continued) e P. Bayless, C. Davis's Presentations Will Show That We Have Established Code Capability at Facility Level By Demonstrating That All Three Experiments Were Satisfactorily Simulated by RELAP5 Code.

Results Form a Band With Small Deviations.

e G. Johnsen's Presentation Will Show That We Have Established That the RELAP5 Models and Constitutive Relations Are Applicable (Extendale) to AP600 Conditions. This Was Accomplished By Examining the Data Base of the Code's Models and Correlations and Analyzing the Scale Effects Included in these Models.

e D. Fletcher's Presentation Will Demonstrate That the AP600 SBLOCA l Code Predictions for the Plant and for the Test Facilities Are in Reasonable Agreements. The Comparison Demonstrated That There  !

Was General Qualitative and Quantitative Agreement.  !

PERFORM EVALUATION OF DATA OBTAINED FROM  :

AP600 INTEGRAL TEST FACILITIES (ROSA, OSU,.

SPES) TO DETERMINE IF ADDITIONAL CAPABILITIES ARE NEEDED FOR THE RELAPS CODE

  • i-

PROCESS e THE PIRT (REV.0) WAS USED TO GUIDE A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW 0F ALL THE PHENOMENA' OBSERVED IN THE THREE FACILITIES FOR SEVERAL ACCIDENT SCENARIOS.

e THE DATA EVALUATION IS USED TO GROUP THE OBSERVED PHENOMENA AS FOLLOWS:

1. PHENOMENA THAT ARE REAL, RELEVANT AND IMPORTANT.
2. PHENOMENA THAT WILL OCCUR IN THE AP600 BUT THAT ARE i NOT RANKED HIGH IN THE PIRT BECAUSE THEY DO NOT AFFECT '

SIGNIFICANTLY VESSEL Itl VENT 0RY (I.E. REAL, RELEVANT BUT NOT IMPORTANT PHENUMENA) .

3. PHENOMENA THAT ARE OCCURRING IN THE FACILITY BUT THAT CANNOT OCCUR IN THE AP600 (I.E. REAL BUT NOT RELEVANT i PHENOMENA) l 4. PHENOMENA THAT ARE CAUSED BY INCORRECT B0UNDARY

, CONDITIONS OR INCORRECT TEST PROCEDURES (I.E. NOT REAL l PHENOMENA) l

'i

PROCESS (CONTINUE) e THE OUTCOME OF THE DATA EVALUATION PROCESS HAS UNC0VERED PHENOMENA WHICH WERE NOT CONSIDERED IN (REV.0) AND WAS USED TO DE-RANK PHENOMENA WHICH WERE HIGHLY RANKED IN PIRT (REV.0) . THE TWO REVISIONS OF THE PIRT WERE THE RESULT OF INTEGRATION OF DATA EVALUATION, 0F ANALYSES AND OF EXPERT JUDGEMENT OBTAINED THROUGH PEER REVIEW PROCESSES.

e NOT ALL THE PHENOMENA OBSERVED IN THE TEST PROGRAM ARE ADEQUATELY REPRESENTED BY RELAP5. IN THESE SITUATIONS A RATIONALE FOR THE CLOSURE OF THE ISSUES MUST BE PROVIDED.

e THE BASIS FOR THE SATISFACTORY ISSUE CLOSURES ARE:

1. THE OBSERVED PHENOMENON IS THE EFFECT OF FACILITY l DIST0RTIONS OR INCORRECT B0UNDARY CONDITIONS (I.E. THE PHENOMENON IS NOT REAL)
2. THE OBSERVED PHENOMENON IS JUSTIFIED IN THE FACILITY BUT WILL NOT BE PRESENT AT THE AP600 SCALE (I.E THE i l PHENOMENON IS NOT RELEVANT)
3. THE OBSERVED PHENOMENON IS REAL AND RELEVANT BUT IT IS NOT AFFECTING VESSEL INVENTORY (I.E. THE PHENOMENON IS l NOT IMPORTANT) l _ . _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ - - - _ - _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _

CMT DRAIN TIMING i e THE PREDICTABILITY OF THE ONSET OF CMT DRAINING IS A CHALLENGE FOR SYSTEM CODES DUE TO THE TIGHT COMPETITION BETWEEN MECHANISMS DOMINATED BY LOW RANKED PHENOMENA.

                    .e THE   THREE                FACILITIES                                    EXHIBIT             A BROAD SPECTRUM 0F MECHANISMS LEADING TO CMT DRAINING.

e CORE UNC0VERY IS NOT AN ISSUE BECAUSE THE SYSTEM LEVEL W.R.T THE PBL-COLD-LEG CONNECTION DETERMINES THE MINIMUM

LEVEL AT WHICH CMT WILL DRAIN.

THE TIMING 0F CMT DRAINING.

l PHENOMENOLOGY e THE ONSET OF DRAINING IN THE CMT IS THE RESULT OF BROAD SYSTEM INTERACTIONS:

1. THE CMT RECIRCULATION BRINGS WARM WATER AT THE TOP OF THE CMT FROM THE COLD LEGS VIA THE PBL'S
2. AS THE SYSTEM DEPRESSURIZES THE WARM WATER REACHES NEAR SATURATION CONDITIONS
3. COLDER WATER FROM THE PRHR AND FROM THE CMT DRAIN IS GRADUALLY FED IN THE COLD LEGS AND IN THE PBL'S e IT IS THE RACE BETWEEN THE COLD WAVE AND THE FLASHING INDUCED BY THE DEPRESSURIZATION THAT DECIDES WHETHER:

, 1. THE CMT WILL DRAIN AT THE MINIMUM 0F THE INFLOW SCALING PARAMETER (BREAKS OF 1" OR LARGER)

2. THE CMT WILL DRAIN LATER ON BY VAPOR INFLOW OR FLASHING-CONDENSATION IMBALANCE

MASS LOSS FROM THE VESSEL IN THE FORM OF YAPOR e THE VAPOR THAT MUST BE DISCHARGED FROM THE VESSEL DURING THE ADS 4 PHASE INTERVAL HAS TWO SOURCES: FLASHING AND BOILING

        -e THE AMOUNT OF WATER THAT MUST FLASH IS DETERMINED BY THERMODYNAMICS AND IS INDEPENDENT OF THE TIME INTERVAL WHILE THE AMOUNT OF WATER                                                         !

MASS LOSS FROM THE VESSEL IN THE FORM OF YAPOR (CONT'D) e THE TWO SOURCES OF VAPOR ARE OF THE SIMILAR MAGNITUDE DURING THE ADS 4 PHASE. THE MINIMUM MASS THAT WILL BE LOST (IF STRICTLY VAPOR FLOW) FROM THE SYSTEM DURING THE ADS 4 PHASE IS APPROXIMATELY 9000 KG l e THAT CAN BE COMPARED WITH THE INVENTORY HOUSED IN THE REACTOR VESSEL BETWEEN THE TOP OF THE CORE AND THE HOT LEG. THE MAXIMUM MASS OF WATER THAT CAN BE CONTAINED IN THIS REGION AT 7 BAR IS APPROXIMATELY 16,000 KG e THEREFORE, THE MARGIN TO UNCOVERY WITH NO INVENTORY MAKEUP TO THE SYSTEM AND NO ENTRAINMENT OUT ADS 4 IS APPROXIMATELY 7000 KG e THE CMTS HAVE A TOTAL OF 21,000 KG OF WATER REMAINING WHEN ADS 4 OPENS, THEREFORE, THE MAKEUP TO THE SYSTEM DURING THE ADS 4 PHASE EXCEEDS THE VAPOR MASS LOST BY A MORE THAN FACTOR OF 2. THE EXCESS MASS IS ENTRAINED OUT THE ADS 4. e EVEN IF ONE ECC TRAIN IS DISABLED AS IN THE DVI BREAK THERE IS STILL SUFFICIENT MAKEUP SUPPLIED TO COMPENSATE FOR THE VAPOR MASS LOST. e SEVERAL DATA COMPARISONS FOLLOW TO SUPPORT THESE CONTENTIONS i

' e IN TESTS CONDUCTED THUS FAR, ECC DELIVERY HAS EXCEEDED AMOUNT REQUIRED TO COMPENSATE FOR LOSSES DUE TO BOILING AND FLASHING AND EXCESS IS LOST FROM THE SYSTEM (EXCEPTING A RECENT ROSA TEST). 1 e THE MOST SEVERE TESTS CONDUCTED THUS FAR IN TERMS OF ADS CONSTRICTION WERE ONE OUT OF FOUR ADS 4 VALVES OPEN IN COMBINATION OF ALL OF ADSl-3. THESE TESTS WERE SUCCESSFULL IN DEPRESSURIZING TO ALLOW IRWST INJECTION. BY COMPARISON, FAILING ALL ADSl-3 BUT HAVING i ALL ADS 4 AVAILABLE IS LESS RESTRICTING. e ONLY TEST IN WHICH THE INVENTORY IS SIGNIFICANTLY LESS IS THE DVI BREAK BECAUSE IT IS A RELATIVELY LARGE BREAK AT LOWEST POSSIBLE POINT IN SYSTEM, HALF THE AVAILABLE ECC IS LOST OUT THE BREAK, AND VESSEL EXPERIENCES RAPID DEPRESSURIZATION AND INTENSE FLASHING. ALL OTHER TESTS TEND TO CONGREGATE TOGETHER. SAME BREAK SIZE LOCATED

HIGH BREAK IN THE SYSTEM (INADVERTENT ADS) GIVES RESULTS SIMILAR TO THE BASE CASE (l" COLD LEG BREAK) . DVI BREAK DOES NOT UNCOVER CORE.

e THIS LED TO THE CONDUCT OF A "NO RESERVE" TEST SERIES IN APEX TO BE DISCUSSED BY JOE KELLY. FURTHER TESTS ARE PLANNED TO HELP DEFINE THE MINIMUM ECC INJECTION AND ADS DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS.

1. Introduction During the testing program at the APEX Test -

Facility, oscillations in system pressure, Reactor Vessel liquid level, DVI flows, ADS 4 flows, and break flows were observed late in the IRWST injection phase.

                            - Further investigation of this phenomenon was warranted to better understand its potential impact on AP600 passive safety systems performance.

8. Effect of the RSO on Core l

Liquid Inventory When the Reactor Vessel liquid level drops below L the top of the hot leg, a vent path for the steam in the Reactor Head is established through the ADS 4 line reducing system pressure to the extent that ' DVI flow is no longer impeded and core boiloff is prevented.

  • Therefore, the minimum Reactor Vessel liquid level that results during an oscillation cycle is l

l physically limited to the vicinity of the top of the hot leg. Thus, the RSO phenomenon cannot lead to core uncovedng.

Conclusions The NRC-13 test series has been performed to understand the physics of the RSOs. l Our study reveals: l - The need for multi-dimensional modeling of the core to simulate complex saturated / subcooled liquid mixing. l - The need for improved models for predicting vapor quality in vertical off-takes on horizontal lines. l

                             - The minimum Reactor Vessel liquid level that results i                               during an oscillation cycle is physically limited to the vicinity of the top of the hot leg. Thus, the RSO phenomenon cannot lead to core uncovering.

draining that result in intermittent IRWST injection. e

Conclusions:

                     - Oscillations are primarily a function of ADS 4 capacity vs.

system vapor generation rate.

                     - AP600 behavior is bounded by experimenta! facilities.

e Combined ADS 4 vapor flow rate: ~ 65% (x ~ 15%)- e Combined ADS 1-3 vapor flow rate: ~ 35%

                - High velocity (10-20 m/s) vapor flow in surge line " holds up" liquid level in the pressurizer.

                             " Hand Calculation": ROSA ADS 4 venting capacity e Core at saturation: all decay heat causes vapor generation e All ADS 4 flow is vapor & 3/4 ADS 4 valves are open                ;
o Pressure is constant: no flashing

Conclusions:

- i 1 e ADS 4 flow is friction limited (not choked). e Pressure necessary to vent decay heat is just below threshold for IRWST injection. e To depressurize below ~2 bar, ADS 1-3 flow is needed. e ADS 4 venting capacity & core vapor generation are crucial  ; p factors in oscillations. ACRS T/H Subcommittee 2/10/97 9 s

5 Pressurizer Drain /IRWST Injection Oscillations i i e Relevance: t Are oscillations expected to occur in the AP600 ? Approach:

                                      - Compare ADS 4 venting capcity vs. core power for the AP600 design and ROSA test facility.
                                      - Perform RELAPS calculation for 1" cold leg break in AP600 and compare to ROSA results.

Conclusion:

                                      - Oscillations may occur but should persist for a shorter period than in the ROSA tests.

CCFL behavior at upper core plate:

              - If pressurizer drain causes interruption of IRWST injection, can the core boil-off & uncover ?

e Pressurizer drains increases the liquid inventory in the upper plenum.  ! e if this liquid can " fall back" into the core, the core inventory cannot be depleted until the upper plenum is dry. e During the time of pressurizer drain oscillations, the core exit vapor flow is more than a factor of 2 below the CCFL limit.

              - Fall back from the upper plenum will occur providing core inventory make-up.

e The INEL Scaling Approach Provides a Detailed Representation of the Elements Affecting Directly the Reactor Vessel Inventory and Energy Removal for a Variety of SBLOCA Transients.

o The INEL Scaling Results in Conjunction With: PIRT Data Evaluation, RELAP5 Data Analysis (Both Integral-Effect, and Separate-Effect AP600 Tests) RELAP5 Model and Correlation Applicability to AP600 Have Been Used to Demonstrate That the Data is Sufficient and Relevant for the Assessment of the RELAPS Code. e BNL Approach Focuses on the Overall System and Provides a Measure of the Relative importance of the Various Term of the Conservation Equations. e The BNL Scaling Result is Expected to Confirm That the Data is Properly Scaled and That Facility Distortions and Their Effect on the Overall Transient Are Are Understood. i i

Concluding Remarks t e Facility Distortions Can Be Determined From the Two Studies. e Both Approaches Have Essentially Used the Same Phases and include Detailed Treatments of System Interactions. However, There Are Difference: Definition of Control Volumes. Selected Reference Quantities. Data Base for Geometry, Form Losses and initial Conditions. Non-Dimensional Groups Due to Differences in Formulations. e The Two Methods Are Complimentary to Each Other: In the Early Phase Results From BNL Method Will Be Used. ADS 4 to Sump injection, Results From INEL Method Will Be Used. e Differences Will Be Resolved, if They Arise, Provided That They Are Important and Relevant.

Interpretation ofInertia Matrix

   .         The II,3-Group of the scaled momentum balance is the ratio of l            - inertia to driving forces globally.

The elements of the inertia matrix are a measure of the inter-loop coupling by inertia. As a result of scaling, the elements of the main (reference) loop

!            add up to 1.

The diagonal terms measure the inertia of the loop corresponding to the row of the matrix.

  .          The off-diagonal terms measure the cross-coupling by inertia.

Evaluation ofImpedance Matrix: Enter the sum of resistance values between the branch points of a loop into the row associated with the corresponding loop momentum balance and the column associated with the branch point. Scale, first with the ratio of reference flows squared, and then with the loop resistence of the reference loop. BNL SCALING, Part 5; 30 / 40

a i Interpretation ofImpedance Matrix: l

   .   ' As the result of scaling, the elements in the row of the reference                                                                            1 (main) loop add up to 1.

I

   . The II m-group of the Momentum Balance is the ratio of resistance over driving forces in a globalsense.

t

   . The Impedance Matrix reflects the ditribution of flow resistances.                                                                                                                                    i 1

Interpretation ofImpedance Matrix (continued): The Impedance Matrix determines how the flows distribute themselves over the interconnected loops, predominantly in the asymptotic approach to steady state. l Together, t1e Inertia and Impedance Matrices determine t:1e eigenvalues of the flow equations and thereby how fast the flow approaches quasi-steady conditions or if the flow is unstable. BNL SCALING, Part 5; 32 / 40

Interpretation ofImpedance Matrix (continued) Only the aggregate resistances which appear in the Impedance Matrix count for scaling the interaction between components and for assessing scaling distortions. The distribution of resistances between branch points is not important (this gives freedom to insert restrictions to meet scaling criteria). BNL SCALING, Part 5; 33 / 40

! The objective of this presentation is to demonstrate the adequacy of the approach used for representing containment phenomena during the long-term phase of an SBLOCA in , the AP600 (2/2) e The assessments of the OSU experiments l showed that the code could reasonably calculate sump pool level and injection temperature e The OSU experiments did not simulate containment pressurization, heat transfer acro.ss the containment shell, or flow of condensate from the shell to the IRWST e Additional analysis was required to verify that the containment modeling approach was ' adequate for AP600

1. IN THE LONG TERM, MINIMUM VESSEL INVENTORY OCCURS DURING SUMP It'JECTION -
  • BECAUSE OF INCREASED CORE STEAM GENERATION -
  • WHICH CAUSES INCREASED SYSTEM TO AMBIENT PRESSURE DROP -
  • THUS REDUCING THE HEAD AVAILABLE FOR SUMP FLOW INTO THE SYSTEM.

2.. THE INCREASED STEAM GENERATION IS DUE TO HIGHER INLET TEMPERATURES -

3. THE CONB MODEL RESULTS IN HIGHER SUMP TEMPERATURES COMPARED TO CONI AND THUS CONSERVATIVELY LOW VESSEL MASS.
  • THE REASON FOR THE DIFFERENCE IS DISCUSSED IN THE NEXT SLIDE.
4. THE TWO CON 8 CALCULATIONS SHOW THE PRESSURE EFFECT, WHICH IS DUE TO LOWER SUS-COOLING AND INCREASED VOID VOLUME AT LOWER PRESSURE.
  • CONTAINMENT PRESSURE IS MEDIUM RANKED.

ADEQUACY EVALUATION CONCLUSION Presented by: C. D. Fletcher Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards ,

Thermal Hydraulic Subcorhmittee . February 12-14,1997 Los Angeles, California i f i i flNEE

The objectiver of this presentation are: e to summarize the results of code adequacy evaluations discussed in the preceding presentations, e to describe the lessons learned from those evaluations and their significance for AP600 modeling recommendations and user guidance and t e to state the conclusion of this effort regardmg the adequacy of the RELAP5/ MOD 3 code for performing AP600 SBLOCA analysis. i ilNEn ACRS2/the 2-3-97/2

I The outline of this presentation is as follows: e Elements of code adequacy evaluation e Summary of the results from those elements , o Recommended AP600 modeling and user guidance e Adequacy conclusion ACRS2/the 2-3-97/3

The code adequacy decision is based on a combination of results from three evaluation elements. f Code Model and l Correlation Evaluations Are code models applicable? r i Integrated Code g Performance Evaluations y Adequacy Decision Does the code acceptably  : predict the behavior observed i in experiments? Scaling Evaluations Does the experimental data base acceptably represent AP600? FREE ACRS2/the 2-3-97/4 l
