SUMMARY

OF RESULTS: N

Purpose:

Revision 00 on November 21, 1986, while heating up the pressurizer at Rancho Seco Nuclear Station, the water level in the pressurizer dropped below the level of the upper bundle. This resulted in an estimated increase in heater temperature to approximately 2200F.

The radiant heat from these heaters increased the temperature of the shell. For the duration of the event, the heaters were energized and de-energized in a cyclic manner. Also, the total number of heaters energized sometimes varied with the cycles.

The purpose of revision 00 of this calculation package is to conservatively determine the maximum metal temperature resulting from the radiant heat of the exposed heater transient event.

Results: Revision 00 The maximum base metal and cladding temperature occur at the inside corner region of the heater bundle shell opening. They were conservatively calculated to be 919F and 1002F respectively.

Purpose:

Revision 01 The purpose of revision 01 is to determine the fatigue impact of the heater uncovery event on the pressurizer shell opening.

Results: Revision 01 The fatigue usage factor associated with this event was very conservatively calculated to be 0.1. The total revised fatigue usage factor for the pressurizer heater bundle opening is 0.18 which is much lese _than 1.0. the allownbla fa+iqtto il e:a_ qo #= r-t or .

The purpose of this calculation package is to determine the base metal maximum temperature resulting from the radiant heat of the exposed heater transient event.

Revision 01 The purpose of revision 01 is to determine the fatigue impact of the heater uncovery event on the pressurizer shell opening.

2. BACKGROUND On November 21, 1986, while heating up the pressurizer at Rancho Seco Nuclear Station, the water level- in the pressurizer dropped below the level of the upper bundle.

This resulted in an estimated increase in heater temperature to approximately 2200F. The radiant heat from these heaters increased the temperature of the shell.

For the duration of the event, the heaters were energized and de-energized in a cyclic manner. Also, the total number of heaters energized sometimes varied with the cycles.

3. DESIGN INPUTS The definition of time vs. radiant heat output is taken from Reference 1.

The shell material designation and geometry are taken from the original fabrication drawings (Reference 6 and 7).

The radiant heat distribution on the inside surface of shell is taken from Reference 2.

The heater sheath temperature profile adjacent to the shell thickness is taken from Reference 3.

4. ASSUMPTIQHE This evaluation conservatively assumes that a maximum equivalent of 1.25 heater bundles were exposed. This l assumption was confirmed to be conservative as a result of the inspection performed on the middle heater bundle (i.e.,

one heater element (top element) was deformed and next lower four elements were discolored, thus, only a small portion of the middle heater bundle was ever exposed).

.The maximum cladding temperature is conservatively calculated to be 1002F and occurs at.inside corner (Node 1,

.see Figure 6).

The fatigue usage factor associated with this event was conservatively calculated to be 0.1. The design fatigue usage factor in the current Pressurizer Stress Report, Reference 11, associated with this area is 0.075. Therefore the revised total fatigue usage factor for the pressurizer heater bundle opening area is 0.18 which is much less than 1.0, the allowable fatigue usage factor.

8. THERMAL CALCULATIONS DISCUSSION This section contains the calculations for determining the shell wall thermal gradients. The associated stresses and fatigue effects of these thermal gradients are calculated in Appendix A.

An axisymmetric model of the pressurizer shell adjacent to the heater bundle opening was constructed. This model is shown in Figure 1. The model includes 12.5" thick base metal forging and the 3/16" nominal thickness stainless steel cladding on the interior surfaces.

The attached microfiche of the computer run contains the nodal locations, element definitions and appropriate material properties from 100 0F to 1500 0F.

The loads are applied to the model in the form of nodal heat flow on a per radian basis.

There are two sources of heat flow into the model: 1) radiant heat from the " active" heated length of the element (heater " active" length begins near inside shell surface and extends essentially to opposite interior surface, i.e.,

approx. shell I.D.) and 2) radiant heat from heater sheath adjacent to shell wall thickness (this section of heater is

" inactive" but has temperature rise due to axial conduction from active section).

4 The heat flux resulting from the " active" and " inactive" sections of the heaters are applied to the appropriate surface nodes. The corner region of the model receives heat J

from both sources, i j

The evaluation herein uses the Ref. 2 relative distribution to determine " heat absorbed per node" from the upper bundle and, separately, the " heat absorbed per node" from 1/4 of the middle bundle. The two contributing values are then added to obtain the total heat absorbed per node. The resulting values vs. " distance from bundle opening centerline" are shown in Figure 2.

The radiant heat from the " inactive" length of the heater bundle is absorbed by the shell penetration surface. The temperature distribution of the " inactive" length of heater is determined in Reference 3. To approximate the heat absorbed by the penetration surface, the heat output of a 1" long section of " active" bundle (39 heaters) was multiplied by the ratio of:

temperature of 1" length of " inactive" portion R =------------------------------------------------------- .

estimated temperature of the " active" portion (2200 0F)

The resulting values are then multiplied by the ratio of: l

" emitting area" (bundle outside surface) J R = --------------------------------------------- l

" absorbing area" (penetration surface) j i

The resulting values are plotted vs. " distance from inside I corner" in Figure 3. The associated " inactive" heater shcath temperature is also included in Figure 3.

, . i Babcock & Wilcox B&W Doc. No. 32-1167974-01 The heat flux intensity in " Btu /hr/in2 " is determined at each inside surface (shell and penetration) node. It is then multiplied by the " area per radian" attributed to the node (normally, " node radius x 1/2 length of each adjacent element"). It should be noted that the three corner region nodes absorb heat from both the " active" heater length and the " inactive" heat length. The " heat flow / radian" is put into the computer code.

The cyclic operation of the heaters is evaluated by varying the heat flux in accordance with recorded data of Reference

1. The cycles are essentially as shown in Figure 4.

The results of the computer run indicate that the maximum base metal temperature occurs at node 19 (corner base metal node). The temperature vs. time plots for this node is L shown in Figure 5.

For information, the temperature vs. time curve for the maximum temperature node for the cladding is shown in Figure 6.

Additionally, for reference only, a temperature vs. time plot for the node at the inside shell surface remote from f '

the opening is provided in Figure 7.

As an aid in visualizing the conduction of the heat throughout the model, Figure 8 provides a temperature i l

contour plot at the transient time of maximum base metal j (and cladding) temperature. .

This appendix provides the calcu' lated thermal gradient stresses (as a result of the heater bundle uncover / recover effects) in the  !

vicinity of the upper. heater sbt.ndle shell opening. The "ANSYS" thermal finite element model of Section 8.0 (page 8) is revised for use in performing thie stress evaluation. The structural I i

finite element model does not include the effects of pressure, the heater bundle diaphragm plate, heater bundle cover or the 4

closure studs (See figure 9) for the following reasons. /

1) Only the temperature induced stresses are calculated. The pressure during the event v&x nlmost constant and very low f (approximately 40 psi) and a.9 rouch is not significant. )
2) The heater bundle diaphragm plate and' seal weld are not I modeled. The seal weld and diaphragm plate were removed and replaced with the installation of the new upper heater t bundle. The thermal movements of the diaphragm plate do not 1 A

produce any significant , structural loacings on the shell. j These thermal motions primarily affect the intensity of stress in the seal weld itself. Since, the ceal wnld was  ;

replaced, calculation of these stresses is not; ,reepired.

l

3) The thermal motions of the shell surface at the stud end location (as can be seen from the ANSYS stress analysis  !

results for the iterations analyzed, see microfiche on page

16) are small. As a result, no significant stessses would be developed in the studs from the thermal discontinuity situation. Additionally, since the stud will increase in temperature at a faster rate than the ' cover plate (stud is heated by conduction from the shell) the studs will tend to lose a portion of their original preload. For these reasons the stud stresses are not calculated.

4) 'The thermal discontinuity stresses at the juncture of the thick heater bundle forging and the thin shell are ~ not calculated. The analysis herein demonstrates that the stresses and fatigue usage factors in the significant areas (areas directly affected by the thermal radiation from the heater _ bundle) are very small. The areas remote from the high temperature regions will be subjected to even smaller affects.. Thus, it is obvious that the heater event had a negligible effect on the thick-to-thin shell juncture.

The following transient times (see Figure 10) were chosen for analysis. These time points represent the range of thermal effects from the heater event transient without accounting for the presence of the fluctuating level of the pressurizer bulk i fluid. By not accounting for the fluid, the maximum metal temperatures are assured. The potential effects of the pressurizer fluid are addressed in the subsequent pages.

1 Babcock & Wilcox B&W Doc. No. 32-1167974-01 Water-Slan Evaluation Discussion An evaluation was performed to determine the effect of a rapid l rise in pressurizer water level during the event. To maximize l the effect, the initial temperatures for the heater bundle shell opening region will be taken at the end of the heater actuation interval in which the maximum shell temperature was experienced.

This corresponds to load step 18, iteration 10 (time 3.946 hrs) as shown on Figure 10.

For the hypothesized water-slap condition, the hot cladding surface elements will instantaneously be subjected to a bulk fluid water temperature of 200F. This will grossly simulate the effect of a rising pressurizer water level that is totally covering the hot surface which has been conservatively calculated  !

to be approximately 1000F.

Calculations The corresponding thermal heat transfer (film) coefficients (required as "ANSYS" input) will be calculated assuming a natural convection flow regime since no significant flow exists in this region.

The film coefficients are calculated using a standard heat transfer correlation, Reference 8. The formula used for the pressurizer inside vertical surface is a correlation for a surface hotter than the ambient fluid:

This method will account for possible localized " hot spot" stresses at the corner of the heater bundle shell opening.

B.2 Assumptions

1. The through-wall thermal gradient will be analyzed assuming that the gradient is uniform around the circumference of the pressurizer heater bundle shell opening.

3. The ASME Code methodology for fatigue analysis will be )

followed even though the calculated temperature of the base metal inside corner node is greater than 700F, (the upper limit for the ASME Code specified fatigue curves).

creation of, and subsequent effects of, cracks in the cladding on the inner surface of the pressurizer as a result of the Rancho )

Seco pressurizer heater bundle uncover / recover event of November 21, 1986.

Discussion i

This discussion is limited to shell clad areas near the upper i'

heater bundle shell opening. Due to the fact that the cladding in this area was raised to the highest temperature of any point on the pressurizer.

The pressurizer was constructed to the ASME Code,Section III, 1965 Edition with Addenda through Summer 1967. The clad surface, as manufactured, received and passed an ultrasonic test (UT) for bonding and a dye penetrant test (PT) for surface defects. Thus, the original surface was free of detectable cracks.

For a crack to initiate in the cladding during operation either;

1) a cyclic fatigue failure must occur (the actual fatigue usage factor must be greater than 1.0), or
2) a brittle fracture must occur.

Faticue Usace Factor Consideration l During normal operation, the stresses in the vicinity of the heater bundle opening in the shell are small. The existant stresses are due to internal pressure and a steady state thermal gradient. From Reference 2, the maximum normal operating stress intensity at the heater bundle opening corner (highest stress for Prepared By b Date ((" M'7 Reviewed By M Date M/ 87 Page

Babcock & Wilcox B&W Doc. No. 32-1167974-01 this vicinity) is less than 11.0 ksi. Also, the total number of significant operational cycles is small. (The pressurizer heater bundle opening area basically experiences only one significant operational transient --

'Heatup and Cooldown' for 240 cycles).

This transient does not produce high stresses with respect to fatigue. The vessel has been analyzed to the ASME Code requirements and the fatigue usage factor due to normal operation is very small (0.075 for 40 year operation) . Thus, the -Rancho ;

Seco pressurizer is not expected to develop any clad cracking ,

1 during normal operation.

For the heater bundle uncover / recover event at Rancho Seco, significant thermal gradient effects in the vicinity of the i corner radius of the heater bundle opening were calculated.

Surface temperatures were conservatively calculated to be a maximum of 1002F for the cladding corner. These temperatures generated a high compressive stress in the shell. The only significant tensile stresses would occur when the relatively cool bulk fluid pressurizer level hypothetically raised to again cover the ' hot' cladding. Thus, providing rapid cooling. )

For this hypothesized Water-Slap condition, the hot cladding l surface elements will instantaneously be subjected to a bulk i fluid water temperature of 200F. This will grossly simulate the effect of a rising pressurizer water level that is totally l covering the hot surface. The initial cladding temperature is taken at the end of the heater activation time interval  !

During the hypothesized Water-Slap condition the cladding surface j i

elements will experience high tensile surface stresses ]

(approximately 100 ksi) in excess of the clad material yield strength. The cyclic fatigue analysis of the Water-Slap stresses is very conservative. If the water level actually moved up and

]

down during the event, then the initial shell temperature for each heater activation period would have been much less than those calculated in Appendix A. Therefore, the corresponding i final temperatures (and stresses) would have been less.

I However, to provide consideration of the possible material damage from the event on the fatigue life of the pressurizer, a fatigue strength reduction factor was calculated taking into account these Water-Slap stresses. This factor takes into account the elastically calculated stresses (beyond the yield strength) along with their cyclic effects in the fatigue usage factor calculation. The fatigue usage factor for the event considering all thermal loading cases was 0.1, page 35, Also, it should be noted that while the surface cladding tensile stresses are above yield, the base metal stresses are very much below the material yield stress (i.e., maximum tensile base metal stress is less than 10 ksi).

Therefore, even when the conservatively calculated temperatures in this calculation are used, the calculated usage factor for the heater bundle uncover / recover event is not significant.

Iharmal Crackinc Potential Thermally induced cracks are usually the result of high tensile stresses (i.e. above the material yield strength) with an applied large number of stress cycles. Since stainless steel is a tough material at higher temperatures, a significant number of stress cycles would normally be required to produce a crack.

Babcock & Wilcox B&W Doc. No. 32-1167974-01 Figure 6 is representative of the cladding surface temperature during the transient. From the figure it is obvious that there are 19 thermal cycles during the event. Of these 19 cycles, only seven have significant thermal ranges. The significant cycle times correspond to 0.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.3, 3.2, 3.8 and 4.5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br />.

Due to plastic deformation, these subsequent stress cycles would not induce stresses much above the yield strength of the material. Also, due to the inherent ductility of the cladding material, these few stress cycles experienced during the heater bundle uncover / recover event would not induce sufficient hardening to cause cracks.

Figure 12, is the ASME Code endurance limit curve for stainless steel material. As can be seen from the figure, the endurance limit is given as a function of the number of stress cycles experienced. The number of stress cycles seen in this evaluation is for too small even to discuss any possible exceedence of the l endurance limit.

In conclusion, based on the fatigue usage factor for the event and che number of possible stress cycles involved, it evident that the potential for creation of cracks in the cladding during the heater bundle uncover / recover event does not exist.
