SUMMARY
Revision 0:
The purpose of this report is to generate pressure-temperature limit curves for V. C. Summer Unit I for normal operation at 20 and 32 EFPY using the methodology from WCAP 14040-NP-A which encompasses the requirements of the 1989 ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, Appendix G. Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 is used for the calculation of Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART) values at the 1/4T and 3/4T location. The 1/4T and 3/4T values are summarized in Table 4-14 and were calculated using lower shell plates C9923-1 and C9923-2 (i.e. the limiting beltline
. region material). The pressure-temperature limit curves were generated for heatup rates of 50 and 100 F/hr and cooldown rates of 0,25,50 and 100 F/hr. These curves can be found in Figures 5-1 through 5-4.
Revision 1:
The purpose of this revision is to generate pressure pressure-temperature limit curves for V. C. Summer Unit I for normal operation at 20 and 32 EFPY utilizing updated methodology and without instrumentation error margins. The updated methodology that is being employed is the utilization of the 1996 ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code,Section XI, Appendix G, along with ASME Code Case N-640. In addition, this report contains ajustification for a reduced flange temperature requirement which was also incorporated into the pressure-temperature curves provided in this report. All other calculations / data remains unchanged.

1-1 1 INTRODUCTION Heatup and cooldown limit curves are calculated using the adjusted RTNDT(reference nil-ductility temperature) corresponding to the limiting beltline region material of the reactor vessel. The adjusted RTNDT (ART) of the limiting material in the core region of the reactor vessel is determined by using the unirradiated reactor vessel material fracture toughness properties, estimating the radiation induced ARTNDT, and adding a margin. The unirradiated RTNDT si designated as the higher of either the drop weight nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTF) or the temperature at which the material exhibits at least 50 ft-lb ofimpact energy and 35-mil lateral expansion (transverse to the major rolling direction for late material) minus 60 F.
RTNDT ncreases i as the material is exposed to fast-neutron radiation. Therefore, to find the most limiting RTNDT at any time period in the reactor's life, ARTNDT ue d to the radiation exposure associated with that time period must be added to the unirradiated/ initial RTNDT(IRTNDT). The extent of the shift in RTNDT si enhanced by certain chemical elements (such as copper and nickel) present in reactor vessel steels. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has published a method for predicting radiation embrittlement in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, " Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials"[Il. Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, is used for the calculation of Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART) values (IRTNDT + ARTNDT + margins for uncertainties) at the %T and
%T locations, where T is the thickness of the vessel at the beltline region measured from the clad / base metal interface. The most limiting ART values are used in the generation of heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves for normal operation.

2-1 2 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Appendix G to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code,Section XI, Division 1," Fracture Toughness Criteria for Protection Against Failure"[3] was updated in 1996 and ASME Code Case N-640,
" Alternative Reference Fracture Toughness for Development of P-T Limit Curves for Section XI, Division 1"[4), was approved in February of 1999. The 1996 ASME Section XI, Appendix G, provides a more accurate methodology for calculating stress intensity factors due to the thermal and pressure stresses at the %T and %T locations while Code Case N-640 allows the use of the KIC methodology rather than the K1 A methodology.
In September of 1998 Westinghouse completed the analysis surveillance capsule W from the V. C.
Summer Unit I reactor vessel. As a part of this analysis Westinghouse generated new heatup and cooldown curves for 20 and S2 EFPY. The heatup and cooldown curves were developed per the methodology given in WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2," Methodology used to Develop Cold Overpressure Mitigating System Setpoints and RCS Heatup and Cooldown L,imit Curves"[5] and included generic margins for instrumentation errors. In Addition, these curves included a hydrostatic leak test limit curve from 2485 to 2000 psig and pressure temperature limits for the vessel flange regions per the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix G[2],
The purpose of this revision is to present the calculations and development of the South Carolina Electric
& Gas Company V. C. Summer Unit I pressure-temperature curves for 20 and 32 EFPY utilizing the 1996 Appendix G to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code,Section XI, Division 1,
" Fracture Toughness Criteria for Protection Against Failure"along with ASME Code Case N-640.
" Alternative Reference Fracture Toughness for Development of P-T Limit Curves for Section XI, Division 1" In addition, this report provides technicaljustification for relaxing the flange temperature requirement of Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 based on the use of the KlC methodology rather than the Kl A methodology. These pressure-temperature curves are being developed for normal operation up to 20 and 32 EFPY and do not include margins for instrumentation errors.
This report documents the calculated adjusted reference temperature (ART) values following the methods of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2[1], for all the beltline materials and the development of the heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves for normal operation.

3-1 3 CRITERIA FOR ALLOWABLE PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE RELATIONSHIPS 3.1 Overall Approach a
Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50, " Fracture Toughness Requirements [2] specifies fracture toughness requirements for ferritic materials of pressure-retaining components of the reactor coolant pressure boundary ofligh: water nuclear power reactors to provide adequate margins of safety during any condition of normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences and system hydrostatic tests, to which the pressure boundary may be subjected over its service lifetime. The ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code forms the basis for these requirements.Section XI, Division 1, " Rules for Inservice inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components", Appendix G[3], contains the conservative methods of analysis.
The ASME approach for calculating the allowable limit curves for various heatup and cooldown rates specifies that the total stress intensity factor, K ,1 for the combined thermal and pressure stresses at any time during heatup or cooldown cannot be greater than the reference stress intensity factor, Kl e , for the metal temperature at that time. K le is obtained from the reference fracture toughness curve, defined in Code Case N-640 of ASME Appendix G to Section XI. The KI c cun e is given by the following equation:
L = 332 + 20.734
- etu2< r-nren (;)
where, K Ic = reference stress intensity factor as a function of the metal temperature T and the metal reference nil-ductility temperature RTNDT This K el curve is based on the lower bound of static critical K 1values measured as a function of
, temperature on specimens of SA 533 Grade B Class 1, SA-508-2, and SA-508-3 steels.
Revision 1
3-2 3.2 Methodology for Pressure-Temperature Limit Curve Development The governing equation for the heatup-cooldown analysis is defined as:
C
- Ki.+ Kn < Kic (2)
~
where, K im = stress intensity factor caused by membrane (pressure) stress
. kit = stress intensity factor caused by the thermal gradients KlC = function of temperature relative to the RTNDT of the material C =2.0 for Level A and Level B service limits C = 1.5 for hydrostatic and leak test conditions during which the reactor core is not critical For membrane tension, the Kg corresponding to membrane tension for the postulated defect is:
K Im = Mm * (PRi + t) (3)
Where Mm for an inside surface is given by:
Mm = 1.85 for Vt < 2, Mm = 0.926 Vt for 2 s Vt s 3.464, and '
Mm = 3.21 for Vt > 3.464.
Similarly, Mm for an outside surface flaw is given by:
Mm = 1.77 for Yt < 2, Mm = 0.893 Vt for 2 s Vt s 3.464, and
. Mm = 3.09 for Vt > 3.464.
where:
p = internal pressure, Ri = vessel inner radius, and t = vessel wall thickness.
Revision 1
s 3-3 For Bending Stress, the KI corresponding to bending stress for the postulated defcet is:
K ib = M b* maximum bending stress, where Mb is two-thirds of Mm For the Radial Thermal Gradient, the maximum KI produced by radial thermal gradient for the postulated inside surface defect is:
K It= 0.953x10-3 x CR x 12 5 (4) where:
CR = the cooldown rate in 'F&r.
For the Radial Thermal Gradient, the maximum KI produced by radial thermal gradient for the postulated outside surface defect is:
KIt= 0.753x10-3 x HU x 12 5 (5) where:
HU = the heatup rate in 'F/hr.
The through wall temperature difference associated with the maximum thermal K1 can be determined from ASME Section XI,' Appendix G, Figure G-2214-1. The temperature at any radial distance from the
- 2 vessel surface can be determined from ASME Section XI, Appendix G, Figure G-2214-2 for the maximum thermal KI .
(a) The maximum thermal K 1relationship and the temperature relationship in Fig. G-2214-1 are applicable only for the conditions given in G-2214.3(a)(1) and (2) of Appendix G to ASME Section XI.
Revision 1
34 (b) Alternatively, the K for 1 radial thermal gradient can be calculated for any thermal stress distribution and at any specified time during cooldown for a %-thickness inside surface defect using the relationship:
Ki, = (1.0359Co + 0.6322Ci + 0.4753C2 + 0.3855C3)
- 6 (6)
I or similarly, K IT uring d heatup for a %-thickness outside surface defect using the relationship:
1 l
Ki, = (1.043Co + 0.630C + 0.481C2 + 0.401C3)
- 6 (7) 1 where the coefficients Co, C1 , C2and C 3are determined from the thermal stress distribution at any specified time during the heatup or cooldown using the form:
cr(x) = Co + Ci(x / a) + C2(x / a)' + C3(x / a)' (8) l l
and x is a variable that represents the radial distance from the appropriate (i.e., inside or outside) surface to any point on the crack front and a is the maximum crack depth.
Note, that equations 3 through 8 were added to the OPERLIM computer program, which is the Westinghouse computer program used to generate pressure-temperature limit curves. No other changes were made to the OPERLIM computer program with regard to the pressure-temperature curve calculation
, methodology. Hence, the pressure-temperature curve methodology described in WCAP-14040[5]
Section 2.6 (equations 2.6.2-4 and 2.6.3-1) remains valid for the generation of the pressure-temperature curves documented in this report with the exceptions described above.

3-5 At any time during the heatup or cooldown transient, KlC si determined by the metal temperature at the tip of a postulated flaw at the %T and %T location, the appropriate value for RTNDT, and the reference fracture toughness curve. The thermal stresses resulting from the temperature gradients through the vessel wall are calculated and then the corresponding (thermal) stress intensity factors, K It , for the reference flaw are computed. From Equation 2, the pressure stress intensity factors are obtained and, from these, the allowable pressures are calculated.
For the calculation of the allowable pressure versus coolant temperature during cooldown, the reference flaw of Appendix G to the ASME Code is assumed to exist at the inside of the vessel wall. During
, cooldown, the controlling location of the flaw is always at the inside of the wall because the thermal gradients produce tensile stresses at the inside, which increase with increasing cooldown rates.
Allowable pressure-temperature relations are generated for both steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations. From these relations, composite limit curves are constructed for each cooldown rate of interest.
The use of the composite curve in the cooldown analysis is necessary because control of the cooldown procediare is based on the measurement of reactor coolant temperature, whereas the limiting pressure is actually dependent on the material temperature at the tip of the assumed flaw. During cooldown, the %T vessel location is at a higher temperature than the fluid adjacent to the vessel inner diameter. This condition, of course, is not true for the steady-state situation. It follows that, at any given reactor coolant temperature, the DT (temperature) developed during cooldown results in a higher value of KlC at the
%T location for finite cooldown rates than for steady-state operation. Furthermore, if conditions exist so that the increase in K lC exceeds KIt, the calculated allowable pressure during cooldown will be greater I than the steady-state value.
The above procedures are needed because there is no direct control on temperature at the %T location and, therefore, allowable pressures may unknowingly be violated if the rate of cooling is decreased at :
various intervals along a cooldown ramp. The use of the composite curve eliminates this problem and ]
cnsures conservative operation of the system for the entire cooldown period.
I Three separate calculations are required to determine the limit curves for finite heatup rates. As is done in the cooldown analysis, allowable pressure-temperature relationships are developed for steady-state conditions as well as finite hestup rate conditions assuming the presence of a %T defect at the inside of the wall. The heatup results in compressive stresses at the inside surface that alleviate the tensile stresses
- l. )
produced by internal pressure. The metal temperature at the crack tip lags the coolant temperature; therefore, the K 1C or f the %T crack during heatup is lower than the K lC or f the %T crack during steady-state conditions at the same coolant temperature. During heatup, especially at the end of the transient, conditions may exist so that the effects of compressive thermal stresses and lower KlC values do not offset each other, and the pressure-temperature curve based on steady-state conditions no longer represents a lower bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the %T flaw is considered.
Therefore, both cases have to be analyzed in order to ensure that at any coolant temperature the lower i
Revision 1
3-6 value of the allowable pressure calculated for steady-state and finite heatup rates is obtained.
The second portion of the heatup analysis concerns the calculation of the pressure-temperature limitations for the case in which a %T flaw located at the %T location from the outside surface is assumed. Unlike the situation at the vessel inside surface, the thermal gradients established at the outside surface during heatup produce stresses which are tensile in nature and therefore tend to reinforce any pressure stresses present. These thermal stresses are dependent on both the rate of heatup and the time (or coolant temperature) along the heatup ramp. Since the thermal stresses at the outside are tensile and increase with increasing heatup rates, each heatup rate must be analyzed on an individual basis.
Following the generation of pressure-temperature curves for both the steady state and finite heatup rate situations, the final limit curves are produced by constructing a composite curve based on a l point-by-point comparison of the steady-state and finite heatup rate data. At eny given temperature, the allowable pressure is taken to be the lesser of the three values taken from the curves under considgration.
The use of the composite curve is necessary to set conservative heatup limitations because it is possible for conditions to exist wherein, over the course of the heatup ramp, the controlling condition switches from the inside to the outside, and the pressure limit must at all times be based on analysis of the most critical criterion.
Revision 1
3-7 3.3 Closure Head / Vessel Flange Requirements 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix G contains the requirements for the metal temperature of the closure head flange and vessel flange regions. This rule states that the metal temperature of the closure flange regions must exceed the material unirradiated RTNDT yb at least 120*F for normal operation when the pressure exceeds 20 percent of the pre-service hydrostatic test pressure (3106 psig), which is 621 psig for the V.
C. Summer Unit I reactor vessel.
This requirement was originally based on concerns about the fracture margin in the closure flange region.
During the boltup process, stresses in this region typically reach over 70 percent of the steady-state stress.
without being at steady-state temperature. The margin of 120F and the pressure limitation of 20 percent of hydrotest pressure were developed using the K ia fracture toughness, in the mid 1970s.
Improved knowledge of fracture toughness and other issues which affect the integrity of the reactor j vessel have led to the recent change to allow the use of K ic in the development of pressure-temperature l ~
curves, as contained in Code Case N-640," Alternative Reference Fracture Toughness for Development of P-T Limit Curves for Section XI, Division 1". The following discussion uses a similar approach (i.e. using K ic) is used here to develop equivalent flange requirements.
l The geometry of the closure head flange region for a typical Westinghouse four loop plant reactor vessel !
which is more conservative than the geometry of a three loop plant reactor vessel such as the V. C.
Summer Unit I reactor vessel is shown in Figure 3-1. The stresses in this region are highest near the outside surface of the head. Hence, a outside reference flaw of 25 percent of the wall thickness parallel to the dome to flange weld (i.e. in the direction of welding) was postulated in this region. To be consistent with ASME Section XI, Appendix G, a safety factor of two was applied and a fracture calculation performed.
Figure 3-2 shows the crack driving force or stress intensity factor for the postulated flaw in this region, along with a second curve which incorporates the safety factor of two. Note that the stress intensity factor with a safety factor of one for this region does not exceed 55 ksiVin., even for postulated flaws of up to 50 percent of the wall thickness. For the reference flaw, with the safety factor of two, the applied stress intensity factor is 85.15 ksiVin. at 25 percent of the wall thickness.
The determination of the bolt-up, or flange requirement, is shown in Figure 3-3, where the fracture toughness is plotted as a function of the temperature. In this figure, the intersection between the stress intensity factor curve and the Kia toughness curve occurs at a value slightly higher than
. T-RTNDT = 100*F, which is in the range of the existing 120 F requirement. The reference calculation used for the original requirement (which is no longer available) resulted in a temperature requirement of T-RTNDT = 120 F. This corresponds to a K ia (with a safety factor of 2) of 98 ksiVin. Note that the use '
of the K ei curve to determine this requirement results in a revised requirement of T-RTNDT = 45 F, as seen in Figure 3-3.

Revision 1 l
ou., m 3-8 Therefore, the appropriate flange requirement for use with the Kje curve is as follows:
The pressure in the vessel should not exceed 20 percent of the pre-service hydro-test pressure until the temperature exceeds T- RTNDT = 45'F. This requirement has been implemented with the curves presented in this report.
The limiting unirradiated RTNDT of 10 F (Table 4-5 in of this report) occurs in closure head flange 5297-V1 of the V. C. Summer Unit I reactor vessel, so the minimum allowable temperature of this region is 55'F at pressures greater than 621 psig with no margin for uncertainties.

4-1 4 CALCULATION OF ADJUSTED REFERENCE TEMPERATURE From Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, the adjusted reference temperature (ART) for each material in the beltline region is given by the following expression:
ART = InitialRTnr + A RTwr + Margin (9y Initial RTNDT si the reference temperature for the unirradiated material as defined in paragraph NB-2331 of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code [6]. If measured values ofinitial RTNDT for the material in question are not available, generic mean values for that class of material may be used if there are sufficient test results to establish a mean and standard deviation for the class. -
ARTNDT si the mean value of the adjustment in reference temperature caused by irradiation and is calculated as follows:
A RTer = CF *l'"'*"" (l0)
To calculate ARTNDT at any depth (e.g., at 1/4T or 3/4T), the following formula must first be used to attenuate the fluence at the specific depth.
[rargw = fog,
- e### (l1) where x inches (vessel beltline thickness is 7.75 inchesl7}) is the depth into the vessel wall measured from the vessel clad / base metal interface. The resultant fluence is then placed in Equation 4 to calculate the ARTNDT at the specific depth.
The Westinghouse Radiation Engineering and Analysis group evaluated the vessel fluence projections and the results are presented in Section 6 of WCAP-1510l[8] . The evaluation used the ENDF/B-VI scattering cross-section data set. This is consistent with the methods presented in WCAP-14040-NP-A,
" Methodology Used to Develop Cold Overpressure Mitigating System Setpoints and RCS Heatup and Cooldown Limit Curves"[5). Tables 4-1 and 4-2, herein, contain the calculated vessel surface fluence values along with the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2,1/4T and 3/4T calculated fluences used to calculate the ART values for all beltline materials in the V. C. Summer Unit I reactor vessel.
Additionally, the calculated surveillance capsule fluence values are presented in Table 4-3.

5-1 5 HEATUP AND COOLDOWN PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE LIMIT CURVES Pressure-temperature limit curves for normal heatup and cooldown of the primary reactor coolant system have been calculated for the pressure and temperature in the reactor vessel beltline region using the methods discussed in Section 3 and 4 of this report.
Figures 5-1 and 5-3 present the heatup curves with margins of 10 F and 60 psig for possible instrumentation errors for heatup rates of 50 and 100*F/hr. The curves are applicable for 20 EFPY and 32 EFPY respectively, for the V. C. Summer Unit I reactor vessel. Additionally, Figures 5-2 and 5-4 present the cooldown curves without margins for possible instrumentation errors for cooldown rates of 0, 25,50 and 100*F/hr. These curves are also applicable for 20 EFPY and 32 EFPY, respectively, for the
' V. C. Summer Unit I reactor vessel. Allowable combinations of temperature and pressure for specific temperature change rates are below and to the right of the limit lines shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-4.
This is in addition to other criteria which must be met before the reactor is made critical, as discussed in the following paragraphs.
The reactor must not be made critical until pressure-temperature combinations are to the right of the criticality limit line shown in Figures 5-1 and 5-3 (for the specific heatup rate being utilized). The straight-line portion of the criticality limit is at the minimum permissible temperature for the 2485 psig inservice hydrostatic test as required by Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50. The governing equation for the hydrostatic test is defined in Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Code [3] as follows:
1.5Ki. < Ku (12) where, K im is the stress intensity factor covered by membrane (pressure) stress, K Ic= 33.2 + 20.734 e (0.02 (T - RTNDT)],
T is the minimum permissible metal temperature, and RTNDT si the metal reference nil-ductility temperature The criticality limit curve specifies pressure-temperature limits for core operation to provide additional margin during actual power production as specified in Reference 2. The pressure-temperature limits for core operation (except for low power physics tests) are that the reactor vessel must be at a temperature equal to or higher than the minimum temperature required for the inservice hydrostatic test, and at least 40 F higher than the minimum permissible temperature in the corresponding pressure temperature curve for heatup and cooldown calculated as described in Section 3 of this report. The vertical line drawn from these points on the pressure-temperature curve, intersecting a curve 40 F higher than the pressure-temperature limit curve, constitutes the limit for core operation for the reactor vessel.
Revision 1
5-2 Figures 5-1 through 5-4 define all of the above limits for ensuring prevention of nonductile failure for the V. C. Summer Unit I reactor vessel. The data points for the heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-4 are presented in Tables 5-1 through 5-4, respectively.
