modeled at a 9.75 inch. center-to-center spacing of fuel assemblies within the double rows. The actual average O

minimum center to center distance within the fuel storage racks is 10 inches.

The distance between rows of fuel assemblies within any given double rack is 35 inches center-to-center while the aisle between the double racks is 37 inches (center-to-center).

This calculational array effectively brings the 25 additional assemblies closer together and provides greater interaction with the 440 assemblies in the storage area than is actually possible.

The calculational' array thus contains 646 assemblies while the maximum number in the room is limited to 465.

(See Appendix B-1, drawing No. NFM-E-4229, " Criticality Model Fuel Assembly Storage Room."

By squaring off the racks and totaling the number of fuel assemblies the number 646 is arrived at).

All steel construction material was neglected.

3)

The water mist density has been calculated to be 0.000075 grams per cubic centimeter (see section 8.7).

For conservatism a water-mist density of 0.001 grams l

per cubic centimeter was assumed to be in and around the fuel assemblies in the storage array. (This is a factor of about 13 times higher than the mist density calculated in section 8.7 or about 17 times higher than the mist density calculated in Appendix D for a single sprinkler head at maximum flow and pressure).

One hundred twenty three (123) DLC-16 energy group cross sections were used to calculate the reactivity for an infinite fuel storage array using KENO.

The 123 group was collapsed to 16 groups using XSDRNPM and the reactivity calculated for an infinite fuel storage array.

The resultant reactivities were 1.00158 1 0.00608 and 1.00074 1 0.00569 for the 123 and 16 groups, respectively.

Since the reactivities are essentially the same within the statistical uncertainty of KENO the finite fuel storage array was done using 16 energy groups.

5)

The 16 energy group cross sections were generated using XSDRNPM for the 8" concrete walls, 16 inch concrete floor, 4 inch concrete ceiling and the external water mist between the fuel assembly array and the ceilings and the walls.

o The 16 group cross section sets described above were then used in KENO-IV to determine the reactivity of the fuel assembly storage area under the above noted conditions for the most reactive assemblies (the 16 x 16 type with the grids being neglected).

Dimensional details of the calculational model and results obtained are shown in Figures 8.24 and 8.25.

The resulting Keff for the finite fuel storage array is 0.715 1 0.004 which is well below a Keff of 0.95.

SUMMARY

Critical experiments for the interposition of hydrogenous compounds between four assemblies of 18 x 18 U(4.75%)

0, rods were reported in Reference 1.

The purpose of this report is t5 define and validate a detailed calculational model which would be suitable for MONTE CARLO calculations to design and license fuel storage under mist (low hydrogen density) conditions.

'Results of this analysis are as follows:

1.

A calculational model based on a homogenized fuel assembly representation and 16 neutron energy groups which is suitable for use in KENO analyses to design and license fuel storage under mist conditions has been defined and verified against critical experiments.

2.

This model yields multiplication factors for critical experiments which are comparable to those obtained by other methods (APPOLLO-MORET) used-in Reference 1.

ABSTRACT The objective of this task is the development and validation of an analytical model for use in the design and licensing of Fuel Storage under mist conditions.

Combustion Engineering, Inc.

has performed analyses using the KENO computer code, which show that neutron multiplication factors obtained for the case of interposition of low hydrogen density compounds between four 18 x 18 fuel assemblies, are in good agreement with other calculations models and the experiments.

The bias between prediction and measurement is reasonable and quantifiable over the range of experimental parameters.

.o Section I INTRODUCTION This task has a.its primary objective the development and validation of an analytical model for use in the criticality analysis of fuel storage under mist (low hydrogen density) conditions.

Experimental criticality data were measured on four assemblies ofil8 x 18 (U4.75%)

0, rods at 13.5 mm square pitch with variable low hydrogen density compoQnds interposed between them.

The experimental data and subsequent analyses of these experiments were reported in Reference 1.

The analyses were carried out using the APPOLLO-MORET computer codes in 16 neutron energy groups.

It was the objective of this task to define an analytical model for design and licensing of fuel storage under mist conditions.

Section 2 BENCHMARKS Critical experiments on the interposition of low hydrogen density materials between four assemblies of 18 x 18 U(4.75%) 0 r ds at 13.5 2

mm square pitch, were performed by the department of Nuclear Safety of the French Atomic Energy Commission.(Reference 1).

.The assemblies were arranged in a 2 x 2 array in the experimental tank.

A mobile device enabled them to move along the x and y axes in the horizontal plane. (Figure 1).

Cross-shaped watertight containers in various thickness (25.5 to 100 mm) with 3 mm thick aluminum walls are then interpositioned between the four assemblies and successively filled with air and various hydrogenous compounds which are:

1.

Air 2.

Expanded polystyrene (C "8 n 8

3.

Polyethylene power (CH )n 2

4.

Polyethylene balls (CH )n 2

5.

Wtter Water is then introduced into the bottom of the tank and the critical height determined for each configuration.

The resulting values are

-summarized in Table 1.

The calculated results shown in Table 1 were performed by the criticality service of the French Atomic Energy Commission.

Two-step calculations were performed using the APPOLLO and MORET codes:

1.

Calculation of the neutron constant by APPOLLO.

2.

Calculation of the K by MORET.

eff The APPOLLO code is used with the " transport" option to calculate the 2

material buckling B and the K of an infinite lattice of rods in its ambient medium (waterorafbfandtodeterminethemacroscopic l

cross-section of the homogenized lattice based on the 16 energy groups of Hansen and Roach.

The cross-section library used in the code is ENDF/B-III based and consists of 99 groups (52 fast and 47 thermal groups).

The MORET code is a Monte Carlo code that calculates the K of any configuration.

The collisions are treated isotropically bOffanico-tropy is taken into account by means of the transport corrections.

Section 3 MODEL EVALUATION

- 3. l-Computer Codes The computer codes employed in this evaluation were KENO IV (2),

NITAWL, and XSDRNPM (5).

The reference microscopic cross section library was the 123 group super - XSDRN library, DLC-16 (6),

which was obtained from the Radiation Shielding Information Center.

3.2 Cross b.

n Generation The NITAWL h XSDRNPM Codes (5) were used to generate 16 neutron energy group u oss sections.

NITAWL was used to generate self shielded 123 group cross sections from the 123 group super-XSDRN library (DLC-16).

The resulting working library is then collapsed into homogenized 16 energy group library in a typical fuel pin cell environment using XSDRNPM.'

XSDRNPM is also used to obtain separate 16 group cross section sets for structural and external moderators.

3.3 KENO IV Models Homogenized fuel pin representation was utilized in the assembly interior.

The cross shaped box, the outside moderator, tank wall, lattic grid, fuel pin lower plug, bottom plate and support plate were all explicitly represented.

The structure details are shown in Figure 1 (which were obtained from Reference 1).

Table 2 summarizes the multiplication factors computed by KENO IV for 6 critical experiments together with the reported K values eff as calculated in Reference 1 using the APPOLLO-MORET approach.

Among the five critical experiments which are analyzed only 3 had calculated APPOLLO-MORET results.

For these three experiments the KENO IV, MORET APPOLLO and experimental results agree within less than 0.5% Keff*

" MIST DENSITY CALCULATION FOR A SINGLE SPRINKLER HEAD" Discharge from a single sprinkler head anywhere in region A, B, or C

[see drawing NFM-C-4440," Layout of sprinkler system in Pellet Shop Annex (Region A) and Fuel Bundle Assembly Room (Regions B & C) in building 17].
