N/A PAGE 4 of 32 1.0 PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVE The purpose of this calculation is to calculate the total combined instrument uncertainty associated with using the Reactor Pressure Indication Loop and the Feedwater Header Pressure Indication Loop to determine the differential pressure across the Feedwater check valves, 1 (2) - 022 0- 58A and B, and 1(2)-0220-62A and B.

To do this we will reevaluate the results of the Reactor Pressure Indication calculation NED-I-EIC-0052 using the 2a methodology; and perform the loop accuracy for the Feedwater Header Pressure Indication.

As the results of these two evaluations are independent, they will be combined using SRSS to determine the accuracy when using the two loops tn) detennine differential pressure across the Feedwater check valves.

The results of this calculation will be used in the Reference 3.15 calculation to select the " alert / action" levels as the basis of a test procedure for flow testing used to demonstrate that the check valves are operating properly, and will admit adequate flow if the HPCI or RCIC is required to operate.

This calculation applies for each of the following instruments:

PT-1-647-A PT-2-647-A PI-1-640-25A PI-2-640-25A PT-1-3241-15 PT-2-3241-15 Process Computer Process Computer The pressure indicating loops used in this calculation are non-safety related, but the results of this calculation will be used in a safety related test procedure.

Therefore, this calculation is being treated as safety related.

2.O METHODOLOGY AND ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA The results of this calculation will be determined with a 95%

probability and a high degree of confidence.

This is to ensure that the total combined instrument uncertainty associated with using the Reactor Pressure Indication Loop and the Feedwater Header Pressure Indication Loop to determine differential pressure, will bound the actual performance of these loops.

The methodology used in this calculation to obtain a 95% probability and a high degree of confidence, will be to partition the analysis into random and non-random effects. Random effects are added by the SRSS (square-root-of-sum-of-squares) method.

Non-random effects are added algebraically for a conservative value.

Non-random effects are oriented to module (s) environmental dependencies, and except for drift are not probabilist-ic.

Both effects are cascaded through the instrument loop from primary element to display / bistable device.

Instrument loop accuracy calculation NED-I-EIC-0052 provides the error analysis for the Reactor Pressure Indication Loop. The methodology used in NED-I-EIC-0052 is based on a graded approach and is calculated to a one sigma (la) probability level.

Data from NED-I-EIC-0052 will be used as design input into this calculation, but the data will be converted from a one sigma probability level to a two sigma probability level.

2.1 The methodology used herein is based on the Comed documents, References 3.2, and 3.3 with the following exception:

a.

The calibration tolerance is assumed to describe the limits of the as-left component outputs.

For a random error, this corresponds to 100% of the population and can be statistically represented by a 3a value.

Per References 3.2 and 3.3, the

" Setting Tolerance" (ST) is defined as a random error that is due to procedural allowances given to the technician performing the calibration.

For this calculation:

ST = (Calibration Tolerance)/3 (la) 2.2 The errors are determined for normal operating conditions.

C 2.3 Temperature, radiation and humidity errors, when available from the manufacturer, were evaluated with respect to the conditions specified in the Quad cities EQ zones. The EQ zone requirements for each instrument were obtainet. from Comed Instrument Database location data and the Quad Cities EQ Zone maps.

2.4 The only temperature induced M&TE errors that were evaluated were those specified by the manufacturer for a specific model number.

This methodology used the most conservative error evaluation by considering the full range of ambient temperature change as specified for the applicable EQ zone.

2.5 No specific acceptance criteria is noted for the existing configuration. The results of this calculation are simply stated as evaluated from the above methodology.

N/A PAGE 8 of 32 5.4 Radiation induced errors associated with normal environments have been incorporated when provided by the manufacturer.

Otherwise, these errors are assumed to be'small and capable of being adjusted out each time the instrument is calibrated.

Therefore, unless specifically provided, the normal radiation errors can be assumed to be included in the instrument drift related errors.

5.5 It is assumed that instrument power supplies have been designed to function within manufacturer's required voltage.

As such errors associated with power supply / frequency variations are negligible with respect to other error terms during normal conditions.

5.6 There is no QCIS procedure for PT-1(2)-3241-15 instrument loops.

Therefore, METE listed in Section 9.1 are assumed to be the most likely for use in calibrating the instrument loops.

)

5.7 There is no QCIS procedure for PT-1(2)-3241-15.

For the purpose of this calculation, calibration frequencies of 3 months, 18 months, and 24 months will be assumed.

It is also assumed that the instrument loops are calibrated by applying pressure of known accuracy to the input of the transmitter and adjusting the mA output span consistent with the input span.

5.8 Evaluation of M&TE errors is based on the assumption that the test equipment listed in Section 9.1, is used. Use of test equipment less accurate than that listed will require evaluation q

of the effect on calculation results.

5.9 A system directly connected to the reactor vessel is assumed to be 1000 psig at saturation temperature.

5.10 The control room CRT screen (where the PT-1(2)-3241-15 process value will be obtained) has a 4 digit display (Reference 3.14).

It is. conservatively assumed that the 4 digit CRT display is a 3-1/2 significant digit display, Therefore the resolution at the control room CRT display is considered to be 5 psi.

Module is directly in contact with the process. It has an analog input and analog output.

Therefore, it is classified as an analog module.

11.1 Random Error 2 Normal Operation Per section 12.1.4 of NED-I-EIC-0052 (Reference 3.6), the random input error to the indicator (a2innprop) is due to the pressure 1

trcnsmitter PT-1(2)-0647A random error (aln) and equals i 9.060480 psig (la).

This. error is statistically combined with the random errors of the indicator in section 12.1.5 of NED-I-EIC-0052 4 Reference 3.6), and identified as a2An in section 12.1 of this ca'lculation.

11.2 Non-Random Errors for Normal Operation (Ze1An)

Per section 11.3.12 of NED-I-EIC-0052 (Reference 3.6), the only non-random error associated with the reactor pressure transmitter PT-1(2) -0647A is the drif t term (eld). Three different values of drift were considered.

The 3 month drif t term associated with the current quarterly surveillance procedure (Reference 3.4),

the 18 month drift tenn associated with the TSUP program, and the 24 month drift term associated with the proposed surveillance extension program.

Since eld is the only non-random term, eld is equal to the sum of all of the non-random errors (EelAn).

Therefore,-the total non-random error (EelAn) for all three cases of the calibration a

interval will be' evaluated.

Section 12.3.11 of NED-I-EIC-0052 (Reference 3.6) converts the 1

mvde signal into process units of pressure and identifies these i

units as e2innprop.

Therefore, the pressure units for use in j

this calculation are:

12.1 Calculation of Indicator Random Errors (a2An)

Per section 12.1.5 of NED-I-EIC-0052 (Reference 3.6), the random error (a2n) for the pressure indicator PI 1(2)-0640-25A is i 15.295777 psig.

This value includes the random errors of the pressure transmitter (PT 1 (2 ) - 0647A) which were combined with the random errors of the indicator.

l For this calculation, 02n will be identified as a2An.

Therefore:

a2An = i 15.295777 psig (la) 12.2 Non-Random Errors for Normal Operation (Ze2An)

Per section 12.3 of NED-I-EIC-0052 (Reference 3.6), the only non-random error associated with the reactor pressure transmitter PI-1(2)-

0640-25A is the drif t term (e2D). Three different values of drift were considered.

The 3 month drif t term associated with the current quarterly surveillance procedure (Reference 3.4), the 18 month drift term associated with the TSUP program, and the 24 month drift term associated with the proposed surveillance extension program.

For the methodology being applied in this calculation, e2D is the only s

non-random term.

therefore, e2D is equal to the sum of all of the non-random errors (Ee2An).

The total non-random error (re2An) for all three cases of the calibration interval will be evaluated.

3 Month Calibration Interval re2An = 1 1.25 psig (la) 18 Month Calibration Interval re2An - i 7.5 psig (la) 24 Month Calibration Interval re2An = 1 10 psig (la)

N/A PAGE 17 of 32 13.1.2 Transmitter Calibration Error (CAL 1)

Per Assumption 5.7, the transmitter is calibrated by applying pressures of known accuracy to the input, and adjusting the device for proper output. The calibration error consists of three random components:

e the inaccuracy of the calibration standard used to calibrate the measurement and test equipment for the input and output of the transmitter (STD1 & STD2) e the pressure gauge error present at the input of the transmitter (MTE1) e the error of the digital multimeter used to measure the transmitter output during calibration (MTE2)

These quantities will be calculated and combined by the SRSS method.

13.1.2.1 Calculation of STD1 and STD2 Per Reference 3.11, the calibration standard accuracy error of the measurement and test equipment is negligible. Therefore, S'.L.')1 - STD2 = 0 i

13.1.2.2 Calibration Pressure Gauge Error MTE1 The MTE associated with the transmitter input (MTE1) is due to the accuracy of the pressure gauge. From Section 9.1, the greatest pressure gauge error occurs with Heise, model C-12 (MTElB).

'im Schnitzmeyer to obtain-technical data for the proce, computer that monitor the Rx FW Header Pressure. The following highlights the discussion.

1.

The Technical Manual for the process computer is not available.

2.

The accuracy of the process computer is dependent on the accuracy of its Analog to Digital (A/D) Converter which is 0.05% span.

3.

The field input for the reactor FW header pressure indication is non-safety-related and enters the process computer equipment directly and bypasses signal isolation equipment as indicated on drawings 4E-1855 and 4E-1873.

4.

The process computer measures voltage (20-100 mV) across its a

input terminals.

Therefore a 2 ohm ( 0.1 Tol) shunt resistor is installed across the computer input terminals.

5.

The A/D converter cannot be calibrated because it has no individual input / output adjustments.

6.

The computer monitors its own performance If its performance drifts beyond the accuracy or the A/D converter (t0.05% span), the computer will initiace an alarm to notify operations that a problem exists.

7.

Jim is not aware of any environmental related uncertainties associated with the process computer equipment and considers any environmental effects to be negligible.

8.

The control room CRT display screen (where the process value will be obtained) has a 4 digit display. It is conservatively assumed that the 4 digit CRT display is a 3-1/2 significant digit display, Therefore the resolution at the control room CRT display is considered to be 5 psig.

F, UNCTION (S)

These mpture disks perform a safety function to serve as a pressure boundary to maintain HCU accumulator pressure. The disks also have a non-safety related function to protect the accumulators from over-pressurization due to the effects of external causes (e.g. fire). This is a Code (Section Vill) requirement and they serve no function in the context of reactor safety.

BASIS FOR RELIEF 10CFR50.55a(a)(6)(i), "im practical" 10CFR50.55a(a)(3)(ii), " hardship" The CRD accumulator rupture disk is physically located on the CRD control block. Over half of Quad Cities Station's CRD control blocks and accumulaton are oriented such that the rupture disk can not be removed without removing and/or disassembling the CRD accumulanr and associated piping. Additionally, the only method to raise the pressure in an accumulator to the bursting point of the rupture disk is during a fue loading event in the immediate vicinity of the accumulator, which would be improbable.

Since the CRD accumulator environment is nitrogen, the material condition of the rupture disks would not be expected te degrade significantly over the twenty years of smice life experienced to date. Thus, Quad Cities removed several originally installed accessible rupture disks for quantitative metallurgical analysis and destructive testing. This testing has shown that no degradation has occurred in the metallurgical characteristics, which would impact the disk's ability to burst at the correct pressure. Destructive burst pressure testing of the sample disks taken from the CRD system has verified the analysis conclusions.

Replacing each accumulator rupture disk on a five year periodicity would be a significant hardship on Quad Cities without a commensurate increase in the level of quality and safety.

PROPOSED ALTERNATE TESTING Quantitative metallurgical analysis and destructive burst tests have shown that no degradation has occurred in the metallurgical characteristics which would impact the disk's ability to burst at the correct pressure. Quad Cities is confident that the rupture disks will retain their pressure retaining integrity for the life of the plant. The rupture discs will only be replaced on an as-needed basis.

SUMMARY

A sample of Control Rod Drive (CRD) System Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU) scram accumulator rupture discs from the Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station Units 1 and 2 were examined and tested to determine their condition after 20 years of service.

The rupture discs are pressure relief devices for the HCU scram accumulators and are installed in head assemblies connected to the nitrogen side of the accumulators.

There is one rupture disc / head assembly for each accumulator.

The burst function of the rupture disc is for protecting the HCU scram accumulator from overpressure during a fire and is not a safety function.

The safety function of the rupture disc is to retain the 1100 psig nominal nitrogen pressure of the charged scram accumulator for the CRD scram function.

A metallurgical evaluation of a used HCU rupture disc with approximately 20 years of service and a new rupture disc was performed.

It consisted of 1) an examination of the surface by scanning electron microscopy (SEN), 2) an optical metallographic examination, and 3) a hardness examination.

Additionally, a chemical analysis for nitrogen content was performed for the rupture disc with 20 years of service.

Three used ruptura discs were tested for burst pressure.

The testing was performed with the rupture discs installed in their original head assemblies.

The rupture disc / head assemblies were removed from the HCUs intact so that the rupture discs would not be disturbed, which may affect the burst pressure.

}5%

JE Nec;2:rinsrW The results of the metallurgical evaluation were as follows:

The rupture disc with 20 years of service showed no anomalous conditions consistent with service induced degradation.

(

The properties of the rupture disc with 20 years of service j

were similar to those of a new rupture disc.

l The burst tests indicated that the burst pressure of the three

{

used rupture discs meet the manufacturing tolerances for burst pressure.

Although there may be an increasing trend in the burst pressure, the safety function of the rupture disc (pressure retention) is not adversely affected by this postulated trend.

Also, the non-safety function (pressure relief) is not adversely affected since the burst pressure of the HCU accumulator is significantly higher than the rupture disc burst pressure.

l In summary, the results of the metallurgical evaluation and the burst tests indicate that the HCU rupture discs at Quad Cities Units 1 and 2 are acceptable for a 40 year service life.

METALLURGICAL EVALUATIgg i

The following is a brief description of the metallurgical evaluation.

Additional details are described in Reference 2.

Scannina Electron Microscony l

The stainless steel surfaces of the used and new rupture discs were examined by SEM.

The examination of the used rupture disc revealed a uniform surface with a characteristic of a pickled page 4 of 8

?

]ENuclearinergy stainless steel.

The surface showed no indications of anomalous conditions or service induced degradation.

An energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) evaluation identified the material type as Type 316 stainless steel.

The examination of the new ruptura disc revealed a uniform surface with what appeared to be flow lines from the forming process.

The EDS evaluation identified the material type to most likely be Type 316 stainless steel.

Ontical Metalloaranhv The used and new rupture discs were sectioned for an optical metallographic examination of the interior structure of the stainless steel.

The examination of the used disc revealed a structure of fine grains (ASTM #15) along the disc surfaces and a coarser grain structure (ASTM #10) in the interior region between the surface layers.

There were no anomalous features found.

The exeaination of the new rupture disc revealed rolling banding and a faint ziicrostructure, typical of Type 316 stainless steel.

f The grain sizm isce determined to be ASTM #10.

Hardnesp The sectioned uswd and new rupture discs were tested for hardness using a Knoop nicrohardness tester with a log load.

Measurements were made on the external surface of the disc and on the interior material between the two external surfaces.

The two rupture discs were found to have similar average hardness values which were within the normal range for austenitic stainless steel.

The average hardnesses of the surface and intorior for the used rupture disc were Rockwell B 97 and B 92, respectively.

The page 5 of a

3EMucssarinerqY i

average hardnesses of the surface and interior for the new rupture disc were Rockwell B 96.5 and B 91, respectively.

1 Nitrocan Analysis The used rupture disc was analyzed for nitrogen content to determine if the disc had absorbed a significant amount of nitrogen during the approximately 20 years of service.

The results indicated an average nitrogen content of 0.078%, which is typical for 300 series stainless steel.

Therefore, an insignificant amount of nitrogen was absorbed by the rupture disc and material properties would not be significantly affected by this mechanism.

RUPTURE DISC BURST TESTS The following is a brief description of the metallurgical evaluation.

Additional details are described in Reference 3.

Burst tests were performed with a sample of three HCU ruptura discs.

Each one was contained in its original safety head and had approximately 20 years of service.

Each disc was pressurized l

at a rate of 50 psig per second from 0 to approximately 1000 p'ig.

A pressurization rate of 20 psig per second was then s

utilized until the disc ruptured.

The rupture pressure was then adjusted for a temperature of 150' F since the test was performed at a temperature of 72* F.

i The burst pressures were 2270, 2297 and 2316 psig at 72* F.

Adjusting for the temperature, the burst pressures were calculated to be 2156, 2182 and 2200 psig at 150* F.

The temperature adjustment calculation is based upon approximately 50 page 6 of 8 j

l 1

JENuc:eari::eroy years of test data.

All three met the manufacturing requirements of 1900 to 2100 psig 15% at 150* F.

1 CONCLUSIONS The results of the metallurgical evaluation indicate there were no anomalous conditions consistent with service induced degradation, and the properties of the 20 year old used rupture disc were similar to those of a new rupture disc.

Based upon these results, the HCU rupture discs are expected to operate up to their 40 year design life without significant changes to their metallurgical properties.

If it is assumed that the burst pressure was originally 2000 psig at 150* F (ths midpoint of the 1900 to 2100 psig requirement),

then the present burst pressures of 2156, 2182 and 2200 psig at 150* would indicate that the burst pressure may be increasing slightly.

(The actual original burst pressures are not known.)

It is believed that this postulated increasing trend is caused by work hardening due to HCU accumulator pressure changes from control rod drive (CRD) scram / scram reset and from accumulator nitrogen discharging / charging from HCU maintenance.

The burst function of the rupture disc is for protecting the HCU accumulator from overpressure during a fire and is not a safety function.

The HCU nitrogen bottle and accumulator each have a design pressure of 2000 psi, a proof pressure of 3000 psi and a burst pressure of 8000 pai.

When compared to the design of the HCU accumulator, the effect of the postulated increasing trend on the ruptura disc burst pressure is small.

It is anticipated, therefore, that the HCU rupture discs will continue to satisfactorily perform their non-safety pressure relief function up to their 40 year design life, page 7 of 8

NM GENuctear L,eroy The safety fur.ction of the ruptura disc is to retain the 1100 psig nominal nitrogen pressure of the charged scram accumulator for the CRD scram function.

The postulated increasing trend in the rupture disc burst pressure has no detrimental effect on this function.

Since the pressure retention function of the ruptura l

disc is not adversely affected by the postulated increasing burst l

pressure, it is anticipated that the HCU rupture discs will continue to satisfactorily perform their safety pressure i

retention function up to their 40 year design life.

In summary, the results of the metallurgical evaluation and the burst tests indicate that the HCU scram accumulator rupture discs at Quad Cities Units 1 and 2 are acceptable for a 40 year service life.

Hydraulic Control Unit Rupture Disk Metallurgical Evaluation l

Two hydraulic control unit (HCU) rupture disks were received for a metallurgical evaluation to verify the properties after 20 years of service. One disk had seen senice for approximately 20 years at Quad Cities station (Disk 1),

while the other disk evaluated was the current replacement (Disk 2). The two disks were examined by the following techniques: scanning electron microscopy, optical metallography, microhardness and chemical analysis.

J l

Sc==nine Electron Microscopy (SEM) l Both disks were examined by SEM for any unusual surface features. Figure 1 is a 100X view of the surface of Disk 1. The surface is uniform and does not have any evidence of anomalous conditions. A higher magnification view (Figure 2; 1000X) shows a surface characteristic of a pickled stainless steel. No i

i evidence of senice induced degradation was observed. The surface of Disk 2 l

can be seen in Figure 3 (100X). This shows a uniform surface with what appears to be flow lines from the forming process. A 1000X view of the surface (Figure 4) shows the flow lines more clearly.

- As part of the SEM evaluation, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was.

performed on the rupture disks to identify the material type. Disk I was identified as Type 321 stainless steel, while Disk 2 was most likely Type 316.

i These results are consistent with the drawing specifications.

i l

Optical Mermilorraphy Disks 1 and 2 were sectioned to obtain samples for optical metallographic examination. A typical cross section of Disk I (Figure 5; 800X) shows a structure of f'me grains on the edges (ASTM #15), with a coarser grain 1

structure (ASTM #10) in the core region. This type of structure most likely resulted from the forming operation. No anomalous features were noted.

Disk 2 can be seen in Figure 6; this 400X view clearly shows rolling banding and a faint microstructure, typical of Type 316 material. The grain size was determined to be ASTM #10. The section change and Dow lines observed were consistent with the manufacturing process.

Microhardness Hardness measurements were taken on both optical metallographic samples using a Knoop microhardness tester with a 10g load. The results are shown in Table 1.

The average hardness values in the center of the samples for Disks 1 and 2 were Rockwell B 92 and 91, respectively. The corresponding values for the surface regions of bisks 1 and 2 were Rockwell B 97 and 96.5, respectively.

These values were within the normal range for austenitic stainless steel. Since the two materials have similar hardnesses, it was reasonable to expect that the disks would have similar mechanical properties.

Niu s p s A== bsis Sample material from the used rupture disks were analyzed for nitrogen content to determine if the disks had absorbed a significant amount of nitrogen during the approximately 20-year service life. The average nitrogen content of the used rupture disks was determined to be 0.0785 This value was typical for 300 series stainless steels, and as such, would not significantly affect the material properties.

Conclusions i

Metallurgical evaluation of the used rupture disks did not observe any anomalous conditions consistent with service induced degradation. Based on a comparison with a replacement disk, the used disk from Quad Cities had properties similar to the new disk.
