1. FLAW DESCRIPTION In the "B" pump a radiographic indication which may be slag or incomplete fusion exists at the volute part of the case as shown in Figures 1 and defribed in Appendix A. The indication is 1.5 inches in length along the vertical weld seam and begins approximately 1.5 inches below the pump horizontal centerline and continues downward. The depth of this indication is not determined at this time. Assuming this indication is a deep flaw, this indication is conservatively represented by a through-wall flaw of the same length. The objective of this analysis is to demonstrate that this con se rv a tiel y assumed flaw is not suf ficiently long to cause any flaw instability and also that there exists adequate margin of safety for one more cycle of operation.
2. MATERI AL PROPERTIES The ANO-1 pump case was fabricated from ASTM A351-69, type CF8M. Toughnes s and mechanical properties for similar cast stainless steel and weld materials are available frorr. reference 4 and a part of this information is attached in Appendix B. TFe primary interest is in the weld material which contains this indication. Type CF8A base metal has slightly higher tensile strengths than type CF8M, however, Charpy values at room temperature are l approximately equal. For this evaluation, it is considered reasonable to assume that fracture toughness properties for type CF8M and CF8A weldments are equivalent.

Fatigue Flaw Growth Rate Presently a fatigue crack growth rate equation for carbon steel is in Appendix A to Section XI, ASME B&PV code. The Metal Properties Council proposed a u ni fi ed fatigue crack growth rate equation for austenitic material including CF8M ( refe rence 1) and it is under the ASME committee review for potential inclusion into Appendix A of Section XI.

The proposed equation is

= C F S (AKy )

where C -

coefficient, function of temperature (Figure 3) ,

F -

frequency dependency factor, unity for this application S -

R-ratio correction factor S = 1.0 R<0 S = 1.0 + 1.8 R 0<R<0.79 S = -43.35 + 57.97 R 0.79<R<l.0 At 570 F and R= 0, the above crack growth rate equation becomes as shown below,

= 1.8 x10-10 (AKI )

'where da/dN is in inches / cycle and 4KI in ksib It is noted that all different types of stainless steel can be represented by a single fatigue crack growth equation. The fatigue data for CF8M in this reference is the

! same MPC data reported in reference 2.

3. LOADS / STRESSES The applicable stresses at the flaw location are assumed to be the same as those used for the "A" pump case analysis (reference 5) and repeated here in Table 1.

4. FRACTURE MECHANICS EVALUATION 4.1 Stress Intensity Factor Calculation Since the through-wall flaw of 1.5 inch length is rather small compared to the thickness of the case wall (3.1 inches) and the approximate radius of the volute at the weld seam of interest (radius - 9 to 10 inches), a stress intensity factor solution of a center cracked panel is selcted for sinplicity. Even-though the curvature ef fect is neglected in using the center crack panel solution, given a sufficient margin of safety, it would be adequate to demonstrate the stability of the flaw.

Fcr a center cracked panel shown in Figure 2, approximate solution is given by the following equation (reference 6),

KI = (T k F(a/b) (1) where F"a/b) = 1 + 0.128(a/b) - 0.288(a/b)2 + 1.5 2i(a/b)3 For normal and upset conditions, SIG = 15.9 ksi a = 0.75 inch b = 7 inches (essumed)

F = 1.01 KI = 24.7 ksi k . . .For fatigue flaw growth.

From the fatigue flaw growth analysis for 20 heatup and cooldown cycles in the following section, af = 0.751 inen.

Substituting this final flaw size into the above equation 1, KI = 24.7 ksi in. . . . . . Normal and upset.

POS 21033 3 (e est Babcock & Wilcox 4 MCDermott Company GENERAL CALCULATIONS Nuclear Power Division ooc. e.o 32-115 899-00 For emergency and faulted conditions, SIG = 17.5 ksi and af = 0.751 inch yields, KI = 27.2 ksi k ..... Faulted condition. .

4.2 Fatigue Flaw Growth Analysis Fatigue crack growth rate is given in section 2 as da/dN = 1.8x10-10(ogy)3.3 where da/dN is in inch / cycle and KI in ksik The fluctuating stress range is 34.9 ksi, however, only 15.9 ksi is tensile. For the purpose of calculating the stress intensity factor range, twice the tensile stress range will be used to be conservative. Since the stress intensity factor for normal and upset conditions is 24.7 ksi E from the preceding section, twico this value will be taken as the AKI range.

d KI = 49.4 ksi 6 da/dN= 0.000069 N= 20 heatup and cooldown cycles for one fuel cycle and 240 cycles for design life.

Assuming a constant AKI since the flaw growth rate is so small, the amount of crack growth is da = 0.001 inch ( = 0.017 for 240 cycles).

Hence, Initial crack dep :h = 0.75 inch PREPAttD BY O Arg etvitwt0 SY  %, OAfE tilll7G P AGE No 7

. PDS 2103 i 3 (9 84) s.ncock a wncox 8 McDermott Company GENERAL CALCULATIONS Nuclear Power Division o o c. i.o.32-115 899-00 and Final crack depth = 0.75 1 inch ( = 0.767 for 240 cycles).

Since the amount of flaw . growth is very small (0.1% of the initial fl aw depth) for the entire design life, this is acceptable.

4.3 Safety Factor Assessment For normal and upset condition, IWB-3612 requires that KIa/KI > d = 3.16. .

Since this material is very ductile (33% elongation - reference 4), it can be assumed that KIa is equivalent to KIc at the operating temperature and the following ratio will be assessed.

KIc/KI = 179/24.7=7.2>k=3.16.

Therefore, this flaw is acceptable.

For the emergency and faulted condtion, IWB-3612 reutres that KIc/KI > b = 1.414 and since KI for the faulted condition is 27.2 ksik KIc/MI = 179/27.2 = 6.6 >1.414.

Therefore, this flaw is acceptable for the emergency and faulted conditions.

SUBJECT:

Arkansas Nuclear One - Unit One Revised Request For RCP Flaw Analysis

REFERENCE:

ANO-86-13461 Dated October 20, 1986 [

Dear Mr. Jones:

The purpose of this letter is to revise data transmitted to you by the referenced letter and to request additional analyses of both the ANO-1 "A" and "B" reactor coolant pump casings.

In the "A" pump refined 'neasurements now indicate that the wall thick-ness in the area of interest is approximately 2.6 inches. Other dimensions are unchanged.

In the "B" pump a radiographic indication which may be slag or incomplete fusion exists in the same vertical weld as in "A". The indication is app ex'mately 1.5 inches in length and begins approximately 1.5 inches below the pump horizontal centerline and contirues downward. No infor-mation is available regarding depth or throughwall extent for the indication. The pump casing is approximately 3. I inches thick in this area by UT measurement.

We request trat the "A" analysis be repeated using the above revised data. For the "B" RCP we request that an analysis be performed assuming that the indication extends from 00 to ID and which would show accept-ability for one cycle of operation.

As before, please contact me if you have any questions about this request.
