SECTION 1

SUMMARY

OF RESULTS I

l' ine analysis of the reactor vessel material contained in Capsule P, the third surveillance capsule te be removed from the Wisconsin Public Service Corporation Kewaunee reactor pressure vessel, led to the following conclusions:

o The capsule received an average fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) of 2. 89 x 10 19 n/cm2 ,

c Irradiation of Charpy V-notch impact specimens from the reactor 19 vessel intermediate shell forging 122X208 VA1, to 2.69 x 10 n/cm 2 , resulted in 30 and 50 ft-lb transition temperature increases of 25'F and 10'F respectively, for specimens oriented parallel to the major working direction (tangential orientation).  !

Irradiation of Charpy V-Notch Impact specimens from the vessel lower shell forging 123X167 VA1 resulted in 30 and 50 ft-ib transition temperature increases of 20*F for tangentially oriented specimens.

19 2 o Weld metal impact speciniens irradiated to 2.89 X 10 n/cm resulted in 30 and 50 ft-lb transition temperature increases of 230'F ano 235'F respectively.

19 2 o Irradiation to 2.89 x 10 n/cm resulted in a 3 ft-lb decrease  !

in the average upper shelf energy of forging 122X208 VA1 and ne decrease in the upper shelf energy of forging 123X167 VA1. The weld metal decreased by 50 ft-lb from 126 to 76 ft-lbs. All materials tested exhibit a more than adequate shelf energy level for continued safe plant operation, o Comparison of the 30 ft-lb transition temperature increases for the Kowaunee surveillance material with predicted increases using the methods of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, shows that the forging material and weld metal transition temperature increase were less than predicted.

SECTION 2 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of the examination of Capsule 9, the third capsule to be removed from the reactor in the contiruing surveillance program which monitors the effects of neutron irradiation on the Kewaunee reactor pressure vessel materials under actual operating conditions.

The surveillance program for the Kewaunee reactor pressure vessel materials was desigr.ed and recommended by the Westinghouse Electric Corporation. A' description of the surveillance program and the preirradiation mechanical properties of the reactor vessel materials are presented by Yanichko. [1] The surveillance program was planned to cover the 40 year design life of the reactor pressure vessel and was based on ASTM E-185-70, " Recommended Practice for Surveillance Tests on Nuclear Reactors Vessels". Westinghouse Energy

^

Systems personnel were contracted to aid in the preparation of proceduree, for removing the capsule from the reactor and its shipnent to the Westinghouse "

Research and' Development Laboratory, where the postirradiation mechanical testing of the Charpy V-notch impact and tensile surveillance specimens was performed.

This report summarizes. testing and the postirradiation data obtained from L

surveillance Capsule P removed from the Kewaunee reactor vessel and discusses the analysis of the data. The data are also compared to results of the l

previously removed Kewaunee surveillance Capsule V [2] and Capsule R [3].

BACKGROUND The ability of the large steel pressare vessel containing the reactor core (,nd its primary coolant to resist fracture: constitutes an important factor in ensuring safety in the nuclear industry. The beltline region of the reactor pressure vessel is the most critical region of the vessel because it is subjected to significant fast neutron exposure. The overall effects of fast neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of low alloy ferritic pressure vessel eteels such as SA 508 Class 2 (base materici of the Kewaunee reactor pressure vessel beltline) are well documented in the literature.

Generally, low alloy ferritic materials show an increase in hardness and-tensile properties and a decrease in ductility and toughness under certain

- conditions of irradiation.

A method for performing analyses to guard against fast fracture in reactor pressure vessels has been presented in " Protection Against Ncn-ductile Failure," Appendix G to Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. The method utilizes fracture mechanics concepts and is based on the t

referencenil-ductilitytemperature(RTNDT)*

RT is defined as the greater of either the drop weight nil-ductility NDT transition temperature (NDTT per ASTM E-208) or the temperature 60'F less than the 50 ft Ib (and 35-mil lateral expansion) temperature as determined from Charpy specimens oriented normal (transverse) to the major working direction i

of the material. The RT NDT f a given material is used to index that material to a reference stress intensity factor curve (KIR curve) which appears in Appendix G of the ASME Code. The K IR curve is a lower bound of i dynamic, crack arrest, and static fracture toughness results ootained from several heats of pressure vessel steel. When a given material is indexed to

~

3, .{:

F i the KIR cune,-allowable stress intensity factors can be obtained .for this

. material ~as a function of temperature. Allowable operating limits can then be- ..

, determined utilizing these allowable. stress intensity factors.

1 RT and, in turn,- the operating limits of nuclear power plants can' be NDT adjusted to: account. for the. effects of radiation on the reactor vessel materialfproperties. The radiation-embrittlement or changes in mechanical properties-of a given reactor pressure vessel steel can be monitored by a reactor surveillance program such as the Kewaunee Reactor Vessel Radiation Surveillance Program,. [1] in which a surveillance capsule is periodically removed from the operating nuclear reactor and the encapsulated specimens are

. tested. The increase in the average Charpy V-notch 30 ft 15 temperature-(ARTNDT) due to irradiation is added to the original RTNDT to adjust the RT NDT f r radiation embrittlement.. This adjusted RTNDT (RTNOT initial +

curve and, in' turn, to i

ARTNDT) is u ed to index the material to the KIR set operating limits for the nuclear power plant which take into' account'the effects of irradiation on the reactor vessel materials.

l The unirradiated fracture toughness properties of the Kewaunee reactor vessel material are identified in table 3-1.

SECTION 4 DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM Six surveillance capsules for monitoring the effects of neutron exposure on .

the Kowaunee reactor pressure vessel core region material were inserted in the reactor vessel prior to initial plant startup. The capsules were positioned in the reactor vessel between the neutron shield pads and the vessel wall at locations shown in'figura 4-1. The vertical center of the capsules is opposite the vertical center of the core.

Capsule P (Figure 4-2) was removed after 11.08 effective full power years of plant operation. This capsule contained Charpy V-notch impact, tensile, and IX Wedge Opening Loading.(WOL) fracture mechanics specimens from the reactor vessel intermediate shell ring forging 122X208 VA1 and lower shell ring forging 123X167 VA1, and Charpy V-notch specimens from submerged arc weld metal identical to the beltline region girth weld seam of the reactor vessel and weld heat-affected zone (HAZ) material. All heat-affected zone specimens ,

were obtained from within the HAZ of forging 122X208 VA1. The capsule also contained Charpy V-notch specimens from the 12-inch thick ASTM correlation .

i monitor _ material (HSST plate 02).

l The chemistry and heat treatment of the surveillance material are presented in table 4-1 and 4-2. The chemical analyses reported in table 4-1 were obtained from unirradiated material used in the surveillance program.

l All test specimens were machined from the 1/4 thickness location of the l forgings. Test specimens represent material taken at least one forgings j

) thickness from the quenched end of the forgings. All base metal Charpy V-notch impact and tensile specimens were oriented with the longitudinal axis ,

of the specimen parallel to (tangential orientation) the principal working i-direction of the forgings. Charpy V-notch specimens from the weld metal were e

oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimens transverse to the weld direction. The Wedge Opening Loading (WOL) test specimens in Capsule P were nachined parallel to the major working direction (tangential orientation).

~

All specimens were fatigue precracked per ASTM E399-70T.

Capsule P contained dosimeter wires of pure iron, copper, nickel, and unshielded aluminum-cobalt. In addition, cadmium-shielded dosimeters of Neptunium (Np237) and Uranium (U238) were contained in the capsule.

Thermal monitors made from two low melting eutectic alloys and sealed in Pyrox tubes were included in the capsule and were located as shown in figure 4-2.

The two eutectic alloys and their melting points are:

2.5% Ag, 97.5% Pb Melting Point 579'F (304*C) 1.75% Ag, 0.75% Sn, 97.5% Pb Melting Poir.t 590*F (310*C)

The arrangement of the various mechanical test specimans, dosimeters and thermal monitors contained in Capsule P are shown in figure 4-2, 9

SECTION 5' TESTING OF SPECIMENS FROM CAPSULE P

'O

. 5-1. OVERVIEW-The postirradiation mechanical testing of.the Charpy V-notch and tensile specimens was performed at the Westinghouse Research and Development Laboratory with consultation by Westinghouse Energy Systems personnel.

Testing was performed in accordance with 10CFR50, Appendices G and HI43, ASTM Specification E185-82 a.nd Westinghouse Procedure MHL 8402, Revision 0 as modified by RMF Procedures 8102 and 8103.

Upyn receipt of the capsule at the laboratory, the specimens and spacer blocks were rarefu;1y removed, inspected for identification number, and checked against the master list in WCAP-8908 #1]. No discrepancies were found.

Examination of the two low-melting 304*C (579'F) and 310*C (590*F) eutectic alloys indicated no melting of either type of thermal monitor. Based on this ,

examination, the maximum temperature to which the test specimens were exposed was less than 304*C (579*F).

f

< The Charpy impact tests were performed per ASTM Specification E23-82 and RMF Procedure 8103 on a Tinius-Olsen Model 74, 358J machine. The tup (striker) of the Charpy machine is instrumented with an Effects Technology model 500  !

instrumentation system. With this system, load-time and energy-time signals can be recorded in addition to the standard measurement of Charpy energy (ED ), From the load-time curve, the load of general yielding (Pgy),the time to general yielding (tGY), the maximum load (PM ), and the time to maximum load (t ) can be determined. Under some test conditions, a sharp M

drop in load indicative of fast fracture was observed. The load at which fast fracture was initiated is identified as the fast fracture load (Pp ), and t!n

- load at wh'.ch fast fracture terminated is identified as the arrest load (Pg ).

The energy at maximum load (EM ) was determined by comparing the energy-time record and the load-time record. The energy at maximum load is approximately equi' valent to the energy required to initiate a crack in the specimen.

Therefore, the propagation energy for the crack (E p

) is the difference between the total energy to fracture (E ).and D

the energy at maximum load.

The yield stress (oy) is calculated from the three point bend formula.

The flow stress is calculated "from the average of the yield and maximum loads, also using the three point bend formula. ,

Percentage shear was determined from postfracture p'notographs using the ratio-of-areas methods in compliance with ASTM Specification A370-77. The

- lateral expansion was measured using a dial gage rig similar to that shown in t the same specification.

4 Tension tests were performed on a 20,000 pound Instron, split-console test l r

machine (Model 1115) per ASTM Specifications i8-83 and E21-79, and RMF Procedure 8102. All pull rods, grips, and pins were made of Inconel 718 hardened to Rc45. The upper pull rod was connected through a universal joint to improve axiality of loading. The tests were conducted at a constant crosshead speed of 0.05 inch per minute throughout the test.

l Deflection measurements were made with a linear variable displacement transducer (LVDT) extensometer. The extensometer knife edges were spring-l loaded to the specimen and operated through specimen failure. The extenso-meter gage length is 1.00 inch. The extensometer is rated as Class B-2 per ASTM E83-67.

l

- Elevated test temperatures were obtained with a three-zone electric resistance split-tube furnace with a 9-inch hot zone. All tests were condu:ted in air.

nu./io" " " 5-2

i Because of the difficulty in remotely attaching a thermocouple directly to the ]

j specimen. .the following procedure was used to monitor specimen tempr.rature.

Chromel-alur$1 thermocouple were inserted in shallow holes in the center an'd "f each end efithe gage section of a dummy specimen and in'each grip. In the .

test configuration, with a slight load on the specimen, a plot of specimen temperature versus upper and lower grip _and controller tanoeratures was developed over the range room temperature to 550*F (288'C). The upper grip was used to control . the furnace temperature. During the actual testing the grip temocratures were used to obtain desired specimen temperatures.

Experiments indicated that this method is accurate to~plus or minus 2*F.

The yield load, ultimate . load, fracture load, total elongatien, and un-iform elongation were determined directly fram the load-extension curve. The yield strength, ultimate strength, anc' fracture strength were calculated usir.g the original cross-sectional area. The final diameter and final gage length were determined from postfracture photographs. The fracture area used to calcelate the fracture stress (true stress at fracture) and percent reduction in area ,

was computed using the final diameter measurement. <

Weld nvatal irradiated to 2.f;9 x 10 19 n/cm2'(11gure 5-3)- esulted in a 30 and 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 230*F and 235*F respectively, and an upper shelf energy decrease of 50 ft-lb from 125 to 76 ft-lbs..

19 Weld HAZ metal irradiated to 2.89 x 10 n/cn2 (figure 5-4) resulted in 30 and 50 ft-lb transitten temperature increases of 220*F and an upper shelf energy decrease of 44 f t-lb.

ASTM correlation r.onitor material (HSST Plate j02) irradiated to 2.89 x 10 1t v./cm2 (figure 3-5) showed a 30 and 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 155'F and an upper shelf decrease of 22 ft-lb. These value are similar to i

. those obtair.ed from other surveillance capsule programs. l I

- The fracture appearance of each irradiated Charpy specimen from the various L materials is shown in figures 5-6 through 5-10 and show an increasing ductile or tougher appearance with increasing test temperature.

i Table C-7 'shows a comparison of the 30 ft-lb transition temperature i f (ARTNDI) ' increases for the various Kewaunee surveillance materials with '

i predicted increases using the methods of proposed NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision. 2. [5] This comparison shows that the transition temperature increase resulting from irradiation to 2.89 x 10 19 n/cm is approdmately 2

25'T less than predicted by the Guide f or the shell forgings. The weld metal 19 transition temperature increase resulting from irradiation to 2.89 x 10 i n/cm2 is 12*F less than the Guide prediction. f p

SECTION 6 RADIATION ANALYSIS AND NEUTRON DOSIMETRY O

~

6.1 INTRODUCTION

Knowledge of the neutron environment within the reactor pressure vessel and surveillance capsule geometry is required as an integral part of LWR reactor >

pressure vessel surveillance programs for two reasons. First, in order to interpret the neutron radiation-induced material property changes observed in the test specimens, the neutron environment (energy spectrum, flux, fluence) to which the test specimens were exposed must be known. Second, in order to relate the changes observed in the test specimens to the present and future condition of the reactor vessel, a relationship must be established between the neutron environment at various positions within the reactor vessel and that experienced by the test specimens. The former requirement is normally mot by employing a combination of rigorous analytical techniques and j measurements obtained with passive neutron flux monitors contained in each of the surveillance capsules. The latter information is derived solely from .

analysis.

I The use of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to correlate measured materials properties changes to the neutron exposure of the material for light water reactor applications has traditionally been accepted for development of damage trend curves as well as for the implementation of trend curve data to assess vessel condition. In recent years, however, it has been suggested that an exposure model that accounts for differences in neutron energy spectra between surveillance capsule locations and positions within the vessel wall could lead to an improvement in the uncertainties associated with damage trend curves as well as to a more accurate evaluation of damage gradients through the pressure vessel wall.

Because of this potential shift away from a threshold fluence toward an energy

'i l dependent damage function for data correlation, ASTM Standard Practice E853,

" Analysis and Interpretation of Light Water Reactor Surveillance Results," .

3342s-162168 10 g.}

recommends reporting displacements per iron atom (dpa) along with fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to provide a data base for future reference [6]. The energy dependent dpa function to be used for this evaluation is specified in ASTH q Standard Practice E693, " Characterizing Neutron Exposures in Ferritic Steels l

~

in Terms of Displacements per Atom." The application of the dpt. parameter to f the assessment of embrittlement gradients through the thickness of the I pressure vessel wall has already been promulgated in Revision 2 to the Regulatory Guide 1.99, " Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials."

This section provides the results of the neutron dosimetry evaluations i performed in conjunction with the analysis of test specimens contained in surveillance capsule P. Fast neutron exposure parameters in terms of fast -

neutron fluence (C > 1.0 MeV), fast neutron fluence (E > 0.1 Mev), and i iron atom displacements (dpa) are established for the capsule irradiation history. The analytical fornalism re~ating the measured capsule exposure to the exposure of the vessel wall is described and used to ; oject the integrated exposure of the vessel itself. Also uncertainties associated with the derived exposure parameters at tha surveillance capsule and with the

, projected exposure of the pressure vessel are provided.

6.2 DISCRETE ORDINATES ANALYSIS A plan view of the reactor geometry 4t the core midplane is shown in Figure 4-1. Six irradiation capsules attached to the thermal shield are included in the react r design te constitute the reactor vessel " surveillance program. The capsules are located at azimuthal angles of 77*, 67*, 57*, 257*, 247*, and 237' relative to the core cardinal area as shown in figure 4-1.

A plan view of a surveillance capsule holder attached to the thermal shield is shown in figure 6-1. Tha stainless steel specimen containers are 1-inch square and approximately 64 inches in height. The containers are positioned j axially such that the specimens are centered on the core midplane, thus spanning the central 5.33 feet of the 12-foot high reactor core.

.__________________________________________m

F From a neutron transport standpoint, the surveillance capsule structures are significant. They have a marked effect en both the distribution of noutron flux and the neutron energy spectrum in the water annulus between the thermal shield and the reactor vessel. In order to properly determine the neutron ~ '

environment at the test specimen lo:atiors, the capsules themselves must be included in- the analytical model.

In performing the fast neutron exposure evaluations for the surveillance

, capsuies and reactor vessel, two distinct sets of transport calculations were carried out. The first, a single coaoutation in the conventional forward modo, was used prirr.arily to obtain relative neutron energy distributions throughout the reactor geometry as well as to establish relative radia'l distributions of exposure parameter's (#(E > 1.0 Mev,) $(E > 0.1 Mev),

[

I and dpa) through the vessel wall. The neutron spectral information was required for the interpretation of neutron dosinetry withdrawn from the surveillance capsule as well as for the determination of exposure parameter i ratios; i.e., dpa/d(E > 1.0 MeV), within the pressure vessel geometry. ,

The relative radial gradient information was required to permit the projection of measured exposure parameters to lece,tions interior to the pressure vessel ,

l wall; i.e., the 1/4T,1/2T, and 3/4T locations.

I The second set of calculations consitted of e. series of adjoint analyses relating the fast neutron flux (E > 1.0 MeV) at surveillance capsule positions, and several azimuthal locations on the pressure vessel inner radius to neutron source distributions within the reactor core. The importance functions generated from tSese adjoint analyses provided the basis for all absolute exposure projections and comparison with measurement. These importance functions, when combined with plant specific neutron source distributions, yielded absolute predictions of neutron exposure at the

! locations of interest and established the means to perform similar predictions and dosimetry evaluations for future exposure.

3. Enable a direct comparison of analytical prediction with measurement.

The forward transport calculation for the reactor model summarized in figures 4-1 and 6-1 was carried out'in R, e geometry using the DOT two-dimensional-discrete ordinates code [7] and the SAILOR cross-section library (8]. The

. SAILOR library--is a 47 group ENDFB-IV based data set produced specifically for

. light water reactor applications. In these analyses anisotopic scattering was treated with a P3. expansion of the cros;-sections and the angular

. -discretization was modeled with in S8 rder of angular quadrature.

Theireference core power distribution utilized in the forward analysis was derived'from statistical studies of long-term operation of Westinghouse 2-loop plants. . Inherent in the development of this reference core power distribution is the use of an out-in fuel management strategy; i.e., fresh fuel on the core periphery. Furthermore, for the peripheral fuel assemblies, a 2a uncertainty' derived from the statistical evaluation of plant to plant and cycle to cycle variations in peripheral power was used. Since it is unlikely

'that a single reactor would have a power distribution at the nominal +2a level for a large number of fuel cycles, the use of this reference distribution is expected to yield somewhat conservative results.

nu.-noma in 6-4

All adjoint analyses were also carried out using an S8 rder of angular quadrature and the P3 cross-section approximation from the SAILOR library. , l Adjoint source locations were chosen at several azimuthal locatiens along the pressure vessel inner radius as well as the geometric center of each ,

surveillance capsule. Again, these calculations were run in R, e geometry '

to provide neutron source distribution importance functions for the exposure parameter of interest; in this case, 4 (E > 1.0 MeV). Having the importance functions and appropriate core source distributions, the response of interest could be calculated as:

R (r, 0) = /r #0 #E I(r, 0, E) S (r, 0, E) r dr de dE where: R(r,0) = $ (E > 1.0 MeV) at radius r and azimuthal angle 0 I (r, 0, E) = Adjoint importance function at radius, r, azimuthal angle 0, and neutron source energy E.

-1 S(r,0,E) = Neutron source strength at core location r, e and energy E. .;

Although the adjoint importance functions used in the analysis were based on a response function defined by the threshold neutror, flux (E > 1.0 MeV), prior calculations have shown that, while the implementation of low leakage loading j patterns significantly impact the magnitude and the spatial distribution of I the neutron field, changes in the relative neutron energy spectrum are of second order. Thus, for a given location the ratio of dpa/$ (E > 1.0 MeV) is insensitive to changing core source distributions. In the application of I these adjoint important functions to the Kewaunee reactor, therefore, calculation of the iron displacement rates (dpa) and the neutron flux (E >

0.1 MeV) were computed c.,n a plant specific basis by using dpa/4 (E > 1.0 MeV) and e (E > 0.1 MeV)/# (E > 1.0 MeV) ratios from the forward analysis in conjunction with the plant specific 4 (E > 1.0 MeV) solutions from the individual adjoint evaluations. .

1 The reactor core power distribution used in the plant specific adjoint calculations represented a time weighted average over the first 13 fuel cycles.

Selected results from the neutron transport analyses performed for the Kewaunee reactor are provided in tables 6-1 through 6-5. The data listed in these tables establish the means for absolute comparisons of analysis and measurement for the capsule irradiation period and provide the means to correlate dosimetry results with the corresponding neutron exposure of the pressure vessel wall.

In table 6-1, the calculated exposure parameters (# (E > 1.0 MeV),

  1. (E > 0.1 MeV), and dpa) are given at the geometric center of surveillance capsule P using plant specific core power distributions and averaging over cycles 1-13. These plant specific data, based on the adjoint transport analysis, are meant to establish the absolute comparison of measurement with analysis and to provide an evaluation of the more recent loading patterns appropriate for projecting into the future. Similar data are given in table 6-2 for the pressure vessel inner radius. Again, the three

- pertinent exposure parameters are listed for the cycle 1-13 average plant t.pecific power distributions. It is important to note that the data for the vessel inner radius were taken at the clad / base metal interface; and, thus, represent the maximum exposure levels of the vessel wall itself.

Radial gradient information for neutron flux (E > 1.0 MeV), neutron flux (E > 0.1 MeV), and iron atom displacement rate is given in tables 6-3, 6-4, and 6-5, respectively. The data, obtained from the forward neutron transport calculation, are presented on a relative basis for each exposure parameter at several azimuthal locations. Exposure parameter distributions within the wall may be obtained by normalizing the calculated or projected exposure at the vessel inner radius to the gradient data given in tables 6-3 through 6-5.

For example, the neutron flux (E > 1.0 MeV) at the 1/4T position on the 0*

Similar expressions apply for exposure parameters in terms of #(E > 0.1 MeV) and dpa/sec.

6.3 NEUTRON DOSIMETRY The passive neutron sensors included in the Kewaunee surveillance program are listed in table 6-6. Also given in table 6-S are the primary nuclear reactions and associated nuclear constants that were used in the evaluation of ,

the neutron energy spectrum within the capsule and the subsequent determination of the various exposure parameters of interest (# (E > 1.0 .

Mev), # (E > 0.1 MeV), dpa).

The relative locations of the neutron sensors w'ithin the capsules are shown in figure 4-2. The iron, nickel, copper, and cobalt-aluminum monitors, in wire form, were placed in holes drilled in spacers at several axial levels within the capsules. The cadmium shielded neptunium and uranium fiss'.on monitors were accommodated within the dosimeter block iccated near the conter of the capsule.

The use of passive monitors such as those listed in table 6-6 does not yield a direct measure of the energy dependent flux level at the point of interest.

Rather, the activation or fission process is a measure of the ir,tegrated effect that the time- and energy-dependent neutron flux has on the target material over the course of the irradiation period. An accurate assessnent of ,

the average neutron flux level incident on the various monitors may be derived from the activation measurements only if the irradiation parameters are well .

known. In particular, the following variables are of interest:

au,mme io 6-7

d

{

o The specific activity of each meniter. i o The operating history of the reacter.

o The energy response of the monitor. 1 o The neutron energy spectrum at the monitor location, o The physical characteristics of the monitor.

The specific activity of each of the neutron monitor-s was determined using j established ASTM procedures (6, 9-21]. Following sample preparation and weighing, the activity of each monitor was determined by means of a f lithium-drif ted germanium, Ge(Li), gamma spectrarreter. The irradiation history of the Kewaunee reactor during cycles ?.-13 was obtained frem NUREG-0020, " Licensed Operating Reactors Statt.s Summary Report" for the j applicable period. 4 The irradiation history applicable to capsule P is given in table 6-7.

Measured and saturated reaction product spacific activities as well as l

. measured full power reaction rates are listed in table 6-8. Reaction rate values were derived using the partinent data from te.bles 6-6 and 6-7, ,

Values of key fast neutron exposure paranvaters were derived frorr the mee.sured reaction rates n ing the FERRET least squares adjustment code (22]. The FERRET approach used the measured reaction rate data and the calculated neutron energy spectrurr. at the centor of the surveillance capsule as input and pecceeded to a6just the a priori (calculated) group fluxes to produce a best fit (in a least squares sanse) to the reaction rate data. The exposure l parameters along with associated uncertainties were then obtained from the ,

adjusted spectra. 1 t

In the FERRET enluations, c. log nornal least-squares algorithm weights both the a priori values and the measured clata in accordance with the assigned uncertainties and correlations. In general, the measured values ' are linearly related to the flux 4 by same response matrix A; r (s,a) = I A. (s)

} the multigroup cros's section o$g. (In this case, FERRET also adjusts the cross-sections.) The log normal approach automatically accounts for the physical constraint of positive fluxes, even with the large assigned uncertainties.

1 In tha FERRET analysis of the dosimetry data, the continuous quantities (i.e.,

fluxes and cross-r.ections) were approximated in 53 groups. The calculated fluxes from the discrete ordinates analysis were expanded into the FERRET group structure using the SAND-II code (23]. This procedure was carried out by first expanding the a priori spectrum into the SAND-II 620 group structure using a SPLINE interpolation procedure for interpolation in regions where group boundaries do not coincide. The 620 point spectrum was then easily collapsed to the group < scheme used in FERRET.

The cross-sections were also collapsed into the 53 energy group structure using SAND II with calculated spectra (as expanded to 620 groups) as weighting functions. The cross sections were taken from the ENDF/B-V dosimetry file.

Uncertainty estimates and 53 x 53 covariance matrices were constructed for each cross section. Correlations between cross sections were neglected due to data and code limitations, but are expected to be unimportant.

For each set of data or a priori values, the inverse of the corresponding relative covariance matrix M is used as a statistical weight. In some cases, as for the cross sections, a multigroup covariance matrix is used. More often, a simple parameterized form is used:

2r The first term specifies purely random uncertainties while the second term describes short-range correlations over a range r (0' specifies the strengthofthelatterterm.)

For the a priori calculated fluxes, a short-range correlation of r = 6 groups was used. This choice implies that neighboring groups are strongly correlated when e is close to 1. Strong long-range correlations (or

- anticorrelations) were justified based on information presented by R. E. I Maerker-[24]. Maerker's results are closely duplicated when r'= 6. For the

~

integral. reaction rate covariances, simple normalization.and random uncertainties were combined as deduced from experimental uncertainties.

Results of the FERRET evaluation of the capsule P dosimetry are given in table 6-9 .The data summarized in table 6-9 indicated that the capsule received an 19 integrated exposure of 2.89 x 10 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV) with an associated uncertainty of + 8%. Also reported are capsule exposures in terms of fluence (E > 0.1 MeV) and iron atom displacements (dpa). Summaries of the fit.of the adjusted spectrum are provided in table 6-10. In general, excellent results were achieved in the fits of the adjusted spectrum to the individual experimental reaction rates. The adjusted spectrum itself is q tabulated in table 6-11 for the FERRET 53 energy group structure.

A summary of the measured and calculated neutron exposure of capsule P is presented in table 6-12. The agreement between calculation and measurement '

falls within 7% for all fast neutron exposure parameters, whereas, the thermal neutron exposure calculated for capsule P was within 10% of the measured value. l

-l Neutron exposure projections at key locatione on the pressure vessel inner radius are given in table 6-13. Along with the current (11.0 EFPY) exposure derived from the capsule P measurements, projections are also provided for an exposure period to end of vessel design life (32 EFPY). The calculated exposurs rates given in table 6-2 were used to perform projections beyond the end of cycle 13.

In the calculation of exposure gradients for use in the development of heatup and tooidown curves for the Kewaunee reactor coolant system, exposure projections to 20 EFPY and 32 EFPY were employed. Data based on both a fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) slope and a plant specific dpa slope through the vessel wall are provided in tab'e 6-14. In order to access RTN9T vs. ,

fluence trend curves, dpa equivalent fast neutron fluence levels for the 1/4T and 3/4T positions wert defined by the relations ,

dps(1/4T) 6' 1/4T = + (Surface) { )

cpa (Surface) dpa (3/4T) t' 3/4T = 4 (Surface) { )

Tpa (Surface)

Using this approach results in the dpa equivalent fluence values listed in table 6-14.

In table 6-15 updated lead factors are listed for each of the Kewaunee surveillance capsules. These data may be used as a guide in establishing future withdrawal schedules for the remaining capsules.
