I hope he finds it useful.

Introduction The attached material is for your information to help illustrate how the Risk Assessment Group at the Duane Arnold Energy Center is involved and assessing risk for the current refuel outage (DAEC RF014). The following description should provide you with some of the ways my group is involved with shutdown risk assessment at DAEC. The attachments are provided as illustrative examples.

Background

This outage we are using EPRI's Outage Risk Assessment and Management (ORAM) software to perform the risk evaluations for defense-in-depth (qualitative risk) and for probabilistic safety (quantitative risk). We have developed plant-specific models for use this outage. They were developed collaboratively between consultant and in-house resources. Extensive reviews have been made to the models, including baselining a schedule from the previous refuel outage in ORAM and comparison of those results with our extensive PSSA models used in RF013.

14Uuteview oLRI 014 l The PRA group has been involved in continuing reviews of the outage phn for RFol4 since its l Inception in February 1996. At that time we made a preliminary evaluation using ORAh! and fed back our insights to the schedulers in Outage hianagement who promptly made changes to the way work was being scheduled to climinate obvious risk issues from ORAh!. We also made another detailed evaluation in hiny, and then a final shutdown risk evaluation was made in Augu.t as the outage plan was being finallred for implementation. (See Attachment 1.)

Subsequent to the final SDR report, we have analyzed the outage schedule (system windows and major milestones) neatly each day through the end of September. Finally, we've created a PRA newsletter to educate the staff about PRA in general, but specifically our last issue deals with shutdown risk issues. (See Attachment 2.)

Concurrent to our evaluations and various discussions with sch-lulers and Outage hianagement personnel, we provided hands-on user training for the Shift L:.nnical Advisors that were designated to run ORAh! In the Control Room as necessary. Also, an overview of ORAh! was provided to the Safety Committee, Operations Conunittee, and each of four Operations crews.

Finally, hands-on training on ORAhi was provided to key personnel in Outage hianagement, Fire Protection Group, and the Risk Assessment Group.

11esides training, we have been extensively involved in various outage meetings prior to and during the refuel outage. Prior to the outage, we provided presentations to the hinnagement icview Team for each of the lookahead weeks. (See Attachment 3.) During the outage, we avend and provide presentations each shift at the Work Control Center, and our risk summary inh mation is provided as an attachment for discussion at the Control Room Shift Turnover and th. Plan-of-the-Day / Night meetings which we also attend. (See Attachment 4 7.)

Throughout the process we have been asked to evaluate "what if" scenarios and scheduling questions, and we've provided prompt responses due to ORAht't fast quantification ability.

Finally, during the power down and outage implementation, we provide input to the daily newsletter for mass distribution. (See Attachment 8.)

The ORAhi roftware is on limited distribution this outage, as it is not loaded on a computer network environment yet. We have taken extreme care to update the computers where ORA is loaded and used with a new outage schedule each shift (Sam and Spm) prior to various outage turnovers tha: take piace afterwards. This ensures that all ORAhi users have updated schedules as they are are available in real time. (This also means we must walk around a computer floppy disk each shift to all the machines.) We expect to have ORAh! installed and maintained on the computer network before RFO15.

Another large portion of our work for the outage is with regard to decay heat curves. hiy group is also responsible for issuing outage specific deesv heat curves (which include decay heat in the spent fuel pool from previous outages) to the Operations Department. These curves are "best estimate" calculations using the Wigner Way formula. We have made a good effort in collecting real plant data to validate our curves. Our belief is that they are very accurate.

(See Attachment 9.)

Conclusions I hope that the attachments give you an appreciation for the extent of our involvement and review of the evolution and implementation of the outage plan and shutdown risk issues, if you have any questions or comments, please contact me at extension ~1694.

i Final Safety Review of the DAEC RF014 Outage Plan PART 1: Defense In Depth Evaluation using ORAM

'Ihe review of defense in depth for the fina! DAEC RFO14 outage plan was perfomted by mo ' cling the major milestones and system hammocks with the Outage Risk Assessment and Management (ORAM) software. ORAM is a computer tool sponsored by EPRI that can model refueling outage conditions, configurations, and activities which can impact overall safety of a

, nuclear power plant. ORAM takes into consideration plant specific outage plans (system 4amm'osks), operations practices, plant procedures, and plant system interdependencies and configu' rations, which must be input in the form of plant specific models (developed and maintained by risk engineers) and outage specific schedules developed by the plant schedulers.

Scheduling data was obtained by accessing the AS OMS mainframe scheduling software and downloading current dates and times for the various milestones and system hammocks.

The results communicated in this report are based on scheduling data that was obtained from the AS OMS system on August 14,1996. The ORAM models are developed to translate this data into a color display for several important safety functions for refuel outage considerationt. They are set up so that they approximate the colors determined from the " Shutdown Safety Assessment Checklist" from " Outage Risk Management Guidelines"(OMO 7). For purposes of abbreviating the discussion, " green" and " yellow" conditions will not be discussed. Additionally, several

. ORAM generated graphs are included. While these graphs and the acronyms used by ORAM are generally self explanatory, for purposes of abbreviating this report a full definition of these acronyms is not provided. Any questions about them can be directed to the Risk Assessment Group.

. 'l Fin:tSafety Review cf the DMC RF014 Plan Defenst in Denth Evaluations Attached is a color graphic obtained directly from an ORAM screen. Please refer to the labeling on this graphic to correspond to the risk evolutions described below. Keep in mind the following ,

distinction in word choice. "in-operable" or "out of service" means this component or system is not capable of providing its intended safety function (and may be driven by administrative tag-outs or scheduling work hammocks). " Unavailable" is a more general term which means that the system or component is not available because either (1) the system / component itselfis not in service, or (2) some support system or component is not operable. The term " unavailable," in general, does account for the time associated with post maintenance tests, but may not account for the time associated with system operability testing, STPs, etc. The use of system hammocks provides a somewhat gross (conservative) estimate of defense in-depth; however, this also allows for greater flexibility in performing work within pre-determined windows.

The following is a breakdown of the important deterministic (defense-in-depth) safety function from the ORAM analysis.

Shutdawn Cooline for the Vessel This safety function shows a some " orange" throughout the outage, mainly early and late in the outage, it is recognized that the SDC function is the most critical and diflicult to manage one for the prevention of RCS boiling. The following is a breakdown by datcs for the plant states that are " orange" for SDC.

October 13 - October 16: " orange" Early in the outage decay heat is high. At least one tra!n of RHR SDC is required to remove this heat load. Per the schedule,2 RIIR trains (and their respective support systems) are maintained available up until the B side safety window. However, recirculation pumps are not available for forced circulation, if called upon, because of the RBCCW and GSW hammocks. RBCCW is used for pump seal cooling, and GSW is used for MG Sets cooling.

It remains orange until completion of cavity floodup and remoul of the Fuel Pool gates, when inventory is maximized and thus time to boll is longer.

October 17 October 19:" orange" Only one train of RHR-SDC is available during the B side safety window when decay heat is too high for the Fuel Pool Cooling system to provic'e sufficient independent backup capacity.

October 23 October 24: " orange" No RHR-SDC is available, however, decay heat is low enough that the FPC system is capable of decay heat removal by itself when both trains of FPC are running.

October 31t November 15: " orange" Various startup testing is being done. The LOOP LOCA test represents a "high risk evolution" for SDC and Inventory Control. The reactor hydro test window represents a "high 2

Th:1 Safety Review of I'r DAEC RT014 Plan risk evolution" in which SDC is " lost" momentarily but is easily recoverable upon test completion. The orange color for such tests is an indication to highlight the fact that these tests can represent a real challenge tc. the plant and warrant special attention.

Fuel Pool cooling to the Scent Fuel Poc1 This safety function appears to be well managed for defense in-depth during this outage. All patches are " green" or " yellow." To maintain this level of safety, temporary power supplies must be provided to either FPC train when SDC and electrical power may not be fully available.

Inventory Control l

patches tre " green" or " yellow."

AC Power control This safety function shows a some " orange" in the first third of the outage, ne following is a breakdown by dates for the plant states that are " orange" for AC Power Control.

October 16: " orange" This region of" orange" draws attention to the fact that switchyard work (i.e.,161/345 KV) is scheduled while the reactor cavity is not yet flooded up, llaving a shorter time to boll (when inventory is relatively low) could impact the safety significance of degrading defense in-depth for safety related electrical systems. Both the startup and standby transformers and both EDGs are available during this time, however.

substantive and profound recommendations can be made. Even so, the following are what recommendations can be made:

While work is being performed in the switchyurd (activity Z0100!!, October 1619) the i standby and startup transformers should be safe guarded by restilcting traffle around those areas as much as is practical. Similarly, work on offsite power sources (lines, breakers, etc.)

to either transformer should be minimized to the extent practical.

During the early phases of the outage, when one train of SDC is necessary for decay heat removal, the operating train of SDC should be designated as a " protected system" to  !

minimize the opportunities for personnel to inadvertently cause a loss of SDC event. Also, contingency ple.ns and procedures rega: ding loss of DliR events (e.g., IPOI 8, AOP 149)-

should be reviewed.11 ave plans ready to implement attemate DilR methods if SDC is lost <

,g (e.g., Fuel Pool Cooling SDC assist mode, recirculation pumps, feed and bleed). ,, dWd q j :p _.__.L  ;

  • During the middle phase of the outage, when both trains of RiiR.SDC may be unavailable doe to common SDC suction work, contingencies should be prepared or reviewed for situations in the event that one or both trains of FPC is lost.
  • Proper temporary power supplies should be establish'ed and verified for the FPC system, i prior to commencing work on electrical systems that can disable the normal FPC power supplies.

During the containment testing phase (activity Z233011, November 1) secondary containment penetrations should be controlled to maximize secondary containment integrity, Procedures for containment closure should be reviewed and be consistent with those procedures for loss of DilR. These contingencies should consider environmental conditions of containment as well as the availability of electrical power.

During the reactor hydre testing phase (activity Z234011, November 1 5) the functionality of systems / components should be assured by post maintenance testing, by monitoring key parameters of the systems in service, or by verification ofline ups and administrative controls. Both trains of RiiR.SDC should be maintained available during such evolutions.

rin:ISafety Rnlew of the DAEC RT014 l*lan PART 2: Probabilistle Shutdown Safety Assessment (PSSA) using ORAM The review of shutdown risks for the final RFO14 outage plan was performed by modeling the major milestones and system hammocks with the ORAhi software. ORAhi has two modes of operation one that calculates deterministic defense in depth, and one that calculates a risk histogram u ing probabilistic-oriented models, scheduling data was obtained by accessing the AS OhtS mainframe system software and downloading current dates and times for the various milestones and system hammocks. The results communicated in this report are based on scheduling data that was obtained fron: AS-Oh1S on August 14,1996. The ORAhi risk models translate this data into a risk profile similar to those communicated in previous shutdown safety assessments (i.e., RF012, RFOl3) which can be used to obtain additional risk insights that may not be obvious from the deterministic evaluctions described in Part I above.

l PSSA Evaluatiort The final quantitative probabilistic evaluation is believed to be conservative in absolute frequency and is still comparable to other BWR refueling outages. The absolute frequency profile is similar to the risk profile for RFOl3 for its planned duration, as is expected. Small variations within the profile are the result of the detail at which ORAhi allows (ORAhi evaluates changes in system availabilities down to the hour). The absolute average RCS boiling frequency for RFO14 is approximately 2.08E-6 events per hour.'

Attached is a histogram obtained directly from ORAhi. This graph illustrates the risk profile due to RF014 RCS Boiling Frequency, as was determined by the scheduling data obtained on August 14th.

Risk Profile Exnlained The attached histogram shows the probabilistic risk of boiling profile for RFO14, based on scheduling information from August 14,1996. In general, this risk profile looks similar to outage risk profiles for RFOl3 that were determined using different methodology and software.

ORAhi allows for more detailed varia% s within the major plant phases, therefore, it shows some minor peaks and valleys through:st the histogram.

Risk is typically highest at the start of the outage when decay heat is highest and vessel inventory is not yet maximized. Risk takes a large fall as soon as the cavity is flooded and FP gates are removed, thus making time to boil long because inventory is maximized. Risk increases as the fuel movement and the B side safety systems are being worked.

Risk takes another large drop as soon as decay heat is sufficiently low that two FPC trains are adequate for decay heat removal by themselves. (A second drop occurs on October 22nd, but this is due to a brief period when both trains of FPC and a single train of RHR-SDC are available for DilR,just prior to the common SDC hammock beginning.) Risk takes an increase during the 5

Fin:tSafety Review cf the DAEC RFoi4 l'lan common SDC suction line work. (Fuel movement during the second fuel shuftle is also a small contributor to this risk increase.)

Risk drops to its lowest point, as many safety systems are restored to service. Finally, risk increases as soon as reactor cavity is drained back down. This reduces the inventory available

, for bulk cooling, however, decay heat is relatively low. It is during this last phase of the outage, when all safety systems are expected to be available, that startup tests begin are scheduled to occur.

The reactor hydro test is an anomaly with regard to the startup tests, because at high pressure many of the initiating events that are postulated in the probabilistic models are temporarily precluded. (Therefore, the reactor hydro test appears to make risk decrease the way it is modeled in ORAM PSSA. Ilowever, note that in the deterministic side, color portion, of ORAM the reactor hydro test is highlighted in orange" as an activity that warrants special attention.)

Summary of Outage Phses Generator Ofline to Refiteling Cavity Flooded,0ctober 11-16 This time period represents the cool-down from hot shutdown to cold shutdown conditions, it also includes flood up of the cavity and removal of the drywell and reactor heads. System work is scheduled for RBCCW and OSW, and high pressure systems (i.e., Feedwater,11PCI, and RCIC). The risk of RCS boiling during this time period is Idghest mainly because decay heat is still relatively high and the amount of water (although increasing through cavity flood-up) is not maximized until October 16. A minimum of one SDC train is required for decay heat removal from the vessel. Risk during this period is initially dominated (Oct. Il-14) by SDC bypass events (valve mis alignment in the recirculation line which could potentially lead to SDC injection flow bypassing the core region and flow subsequently out the SDC suction),60%.

Thereafter, risk is dominated by SDC isolation events,65%.

B side Safety IVindow and Fuct Shuple #1,0ctober 16-October 17 This time period represents the B-side systems window where the bulk of the outage work is being done. Because the plant will be relying solely on the A-side safety systems (in addition to reliance on both FPC trains) while decay heat is still too high for both FPC trains alone risk of boiling is relatively high, but still much lower than in the previous phase because of the available

. Inventory for bulk cooling via the reactor cavity and spent fuel pool. Risk during this period is dominated by SDC isolation events (varies 25 50%), RPV isolation events (15 30%), and RPV draindown eventsT10f30%) Values in parentheses show variation within these outage phases.

~ ~ . -

B-side Safety IVindow Continued, October 17-October 23 This time period represents the first opportunity to use the FPC trains solely to provide shutdown cooling (deccy heat is sufficiently low that the heat removal capacity of the FPC trains is adequate). This is the main reason why risk of boiling decreases so dramatically. Risk during this period is dominated by RPV draindown events (60 85%), and LOOP (4-15%).

6

FlaalS:fety Review of the DAEC RF0H Plan A Side Safety Window and FuelShuf)le H, October 23 October 28 This time period represents a time when titel handling errors previously masked earlier by other loss of decay heat removal (DilR) events is now a larger contributor to the relative risk earlier.

Risk during this period is dominated by RPV draindown events (45 80%), inadvertent criticality (10 30%), and LOOP (10-75%).

A-Side Safety Window Continued,0ctoict 28-October 31 This period represents a time when fuel movement is not occurring, and systems are gradually l being restored on the A side. Thus, the risk of boiling in the vessel is at its lowest point until cavity draindown begins. As soon as draindown begins, inventory for bulk cooling of the irradiated fuel is decreased, and therefore, time to boll decreases. Risk during this period is initially (Oct. 30th) dominated by RPV draindown events,97%. Thereafter, risk is dominated by )

both RPV draindown events (50 55%) and SDC bypass events (20 25%).

AllSystems Available through Reactor Startup, October 31-November 8 Once the reactor cavity is drained, less inventory is available for bulk cooling of the irradiated fuel, and so time to boll is shorter. Risk is higher mainly as a function of time to-boil, even though all safety systems should be available. The LOOP LOCA test and Containment Test both represent high risk evolutions that can potentially challenge the plant safety systems, and thus their ability to respond to decay heat removal demands if necessary. However, in terms of absolute risk, the LOOP LOCA and Con.ainment tests do not add substantially to risk.

The reactor hydro window actually represents a relative risk decrease because at high pressure

(>l35 psi) several of the postulated accidents / initiating events are not plausible and thus are nc,t considered. This is an artificiality of the probabilistic models since they are oriented around coolant boiling, rather than core damage. Risk increases upon the hydro test completion to account for reactor startup. The transition period for the startup sequence is not explicitly modeled by ORAM. Risk during this period is generally dominated by SDC bypass events (90%). However, during the reactor hydro test risk is dominated by a loss of Division 2 AC bus (35%), small LOCA (23%), RPV drainc~own events (14%), and LOOP (11%).

Conclusion from PSSA Overall, the outage schedule planned for RF014 appears safe and reasonably minimizes risks within the constraints of resources and a shorter outage, while at the same time maximizing defense in-depth. The evaluation of a recent detailed schedule confirms this belief by illustrating a relatively low boiling frequency. The tesults of the PSSA evaluation are final (br. sed on information obtained on August 14,1996), and they are subject to change as the schedule changes prior to implementation.

. ~. s FinilSrfety Review of the DAEC RT0!4 Plan PART 3: Comparison of Outage Risk: February vs. August Schedules A graphical comparison was made between the outage ' .hedules that were obtained and i evaluated for the Preliminary Shutdown Risk Evaluation (Febmary) and the Final Shutdown Risk Evaluation (August). The details of the Preliminary Shutdown Risk Evaluation are described more fully in NO 96-0391.

Background and Cavents Each of the following two pages show the overall defense in-depth (colors) evaluation and probabilistic shutdown risk evaluation histogram for the February and the August schedules, respectively. The ORAM graphs rhown on the next page are from February's scheduling dates, but it takes into account implementation of the two recommendations of the Preliminary Shutdown Risk Report (No 96-0391) to eliminate two areas of red. Therefore, these graphs depict a slightly better picture than was communicated in the February report. The schedule from August takes into account the Noble Metals project, and the effect that has on overall outage resources.

An important r9te in comparing the histograms of outage risk profiles is that the ORAM software automatically adjusts the scales, such that the reader should exercise caution in a one-to-one comparison of the two histograms.

Finally, some minor modeling enhancements have been made to the DAEC ORAM models to provide a more accurate account of both defense in-depth colors and PSSA calcuk uns, based on feedback obtained from Outage Management. However, most of the effort in ducing overall risk (colors and PSSA) is due to modifications to the outage plan.

Summan' and Conclusion A generally consistent and continuing improvement has been observed throughout the outage planning and risk management process over the last six months. As a result, the August schedule when compared to the February schedule shows a marked improvement. Looking strictly at defense in-depth colors, you can see that a lot of orange in SDC and AC Power has been improved to yellow (and in some cases areas of green). Looking strictly at the risk histograms, 1 the average RCS boiling frequency has decreased from about 2.25E-6 events per hour to about 2.08E-6 events per hour. While this,in itself, may not seem significant, keep in mind that the majority of risk in either schedules is dominated by the effects of high decay heat early in the outage which is not directly controllable. The improvement in risk profile is the result of improvements in the outage schedule through careful consideration and coordination of resources

  • and system unavailabilities.

Quarterly Newsletter for Probabilistic Risk Assessment Vol. 2, No. 3 3rd Quarter 1996 Shutdown Risk Management DAEC Refaeling Outage Thirteen represented a major j milestone for application of PRA technologies to As the nuclear industry continues to expand the use of outage management in three ways. First, the PSSA PRA for various activities, DAEC is amorg many of was performed (for the Drst time) by in house staff, front runner plants that are using their plant specine without significant assistance from outside contractors.

The NRC has given positive remarks to DAEC PRA group is conthually advancing, and thus those plants that are doing shutdown risk mar,agement, the dependence on outside support is decreasing.)

This is evidenced in our last two SALP reports, which Second, the PSSA for RFol3 was a refinement of the characterize our PRA and shutdown risk management methods developed for RF012, which made it a more process as strengths. The NRC is encouraging the rest comprehensive and complete model. Third, we used a of the nuclear industry to perform similar studies for Windows based software package called Outage R/sk their plant outages. In fect, the NRC is developing Assessment andManagement (ORAM) for the first new regulations (the Shutdawn Ru/c) to prescribe an time. ORAM sllows for faster tura around time and acceptable standard for risk management during low- communicates risk results more effectively, power and shutdown operations.

DAEC has already acnieved a status in the nuclear Implementation of ORAM for RF014 industry for being a leader in the application of PRA methods to refuel outages. This began with a broad in addition to calculating the risk profile, ORAM consideration of risks for RFoll, then the shows defense in depth evaluations for various critical development of a more comprehensive methodology shutdown safety functions (e.g., electrical power, for RF012, and finally a refinement of this shutdown cooling, fuel pool cooling, containment --

The colors depicted in ORAM are meant to simulate the colors for the various critical shutdown safety Probabilistic Shutdown Safety Assessment functions identified in Outage Management Guideline (PSSA) for RFOl3 Number 7 (OMG 7). Operators (Shift Technical Advisors) use this checklist to calculate the defense.

A formal PSSA can be a very time consuming and in-depth level for these safety functions throughout an extensive project, in the past, it has typically required outage. The colors calculated by ORAM try to one PRA engineer dedicated full time to the PSSA up account for more things than the checklist (e.g., decay to six months prior to the outage, Additional support heat level), therefore, there are differences between the has often been necessary in the form of consultants. two methods.

. This is because the PSSA model is a completely i separate model from that of the at power PRA. PSSAs Besides the ability to automate the Shutdown Safety require a signincant amount of effort to understand Assessment Checklist calculations of defense in depth outage configurations, activities, procedures, operator colors, this software tool can display Risk actions, postulated shutdown event scenarios, and Mmagement Guidelines (RMGs) texts that vary, RFO-specific planned system hammocks.

Attachment:

Shutdown Decay Heat The attached three graphs are an overview of our initial data collection to validate our best ,

l estimate of decay heat at DAEC. The data is from the Plant Process Computer (PPC) via j the PI( Plant Information) sonware.

I The first graph, labeled " Decay Heat Early in RFO 14," covers the first days following reactor shutdown. During this period, decay heat was being removed by four primary 1- means: Main Condenser; RHR in Shutdown Cooling (SDC) mode; RWCU; and Losses to j ambient by the RPV which was being maintained at a high tempeinture for noble metal injection. The line labeled "Qdot_DH_ Tot" is the sum of data from all four of these j modes of decay heat removal. The dashed line labeled "Qdot rhr" is the data for RHR in l SDC which is the major, but not only, mode after the first few hours. The curve labeled

" Calculated Decay Heat" is our best estimate of decay heat generation but is not our

, licensing basis. During a period of about 4 to 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> after reactor shutdown, changes in i the RHR lineup were made. This caused a reduction in heat removal for about two hours followed by enhanced heat removal from the temporarily elevated temperatures.

]

The second graph, labeled " Heat Rejection - SDC," compares our best estimate of decay heat gencation with heat removal by SDC for RFO 14 up to the present. At about the three day point, the Main Condenser had been secured, RWCU was secured, and the final cooldown was commenced. The jump in heat removal by SDC on the afternoon of l 10/14/96 reflects the removal of stored heat from the reactor vessel and internals on top of the decay heat generated by the irradiated fuel. On the order of 20 MWH of energy is i stored in the reactor vessel and internals. The dip in SDC heat removal around noon on 10/17/96 is due to the addition of relatively cold water during floodup.

I The third graph of" Vessel Temperatures" shows the coolant and vessel metal temperatures during the extended cocidown phase at the beginning of RFO 14.

We are continuing to track shutdown decay heat. Our preliminary conclusion is that our calcu. tion. of shutdown decay heat is accurate and matches measured data very well. This serves as a good basis for use in our risk calculations.
