SUMMARY
In this task three PRAs'have been analyzed to determine the relative importances of critical safety-related systems and the failure event sequences most likely to lead to core melt during accident conditions. Tables 1, 2 and 3 present the most important event sequences (dominant cut sets) leading to core melt identified in one PRA for ANO-1 (Kolb et al.1982), in a recent, extensive PRA for Oconee performed by EPRI (Sugnet et al. 1984), and in an older PRA for Oconee performed as part of the Reactor Safety Study Methodology Applications Program (RSSMAP) (Kolb et al.1981).
Table 4 presents the Fussell-Vesely Importance calculated for major events and.olant systems. The F-V Importance is the fraction of the total core melt probability resulting from event sequences (cut sets) involving that particular system or event type. Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3 in Appendix A present the definitions of the individual events, grouped according to the system they were assigned to for purposes of Importance calculations. Variations of calculated F-V importances result from both plant differences and PRA approach differences as discussed in the body of the report.
Succeeding tasks of this project will examine the important system failures identified in Tables 1, 2 and 3 more closely. These failures will be used to focus comparisons of system designs between the surrogate plants and Rancho Seco. Important Rancho Seco failure modes and components will then be inferred.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Probabilistic risk assessments, PRAs, are being developed for nuclear power -plants for several reasons. Among these are the assessment of overall plant safety, the identification and optimization of plant design changes to improve plant safety, and to allow the cost benefit analysis of regulatory requirement changes. The information contained in these PRAs is also useful in identifying systems and components of greater safety importance. This can help focus attention on plant areas where accident probabilities are most sensitive to performance degradation.
Recent studies have addressed the use of plant specific PRA information in the development of inspection plans for several power plants (Higgins 1986, Higgins et al.1984, Hinton and Wright 1986a, Hinton and Wright 1986b). These studies have demonstrated the feasibility of this approach and the usefulness of the information derived. However, plant specific PRAs have not .been performed for many plants. Because individual plants differ significantly in system and component design, a direct application of PRA information cannot be assumed to be valid between plants, even those from the same reactor vendor.
Nevertheless, with the proper incorporation of technical differences between specific plants, existing PRAs can provide a foundation from which inspection guidance can be developed.
This report presents the first step in an effort to develop information ,
useful in the planning and performance of inspections for a powerplant lacking ;
a PRA, by using PRA results from related plants. This is being done for Rancho Seco, a Babcock and Wilcox powerplant, using PRA results for two other B&W plants; ANO-1 and Oconee.
In this step one ANO-1 (Kolb et al. 1982) and two separate Oconee PRAs (Sugnet et al. 1984, Kolb et al. 1981) are analyzed to determine the relative importances of critical safety-related systems, and the failure modes most likely to lead to core melt during accident conditions. In succeeding steps the detailed designs of these systems will be compared to those of Rancho ,
Seco to determine similarities and differences important to calculations of '
core melt probability. This information will then be used to identify critical Rancho Seco systems and failure modes, and identify specific components ;
important to public safety at the plant. These succeeding steps will be I addressed in a subsequent report. )
2.0 METHOD Our approach to the development of inspection guidance for Rancho Seco )
powerplant using PRAs for surrogate plants (ANO-1 and Oconee) begins with a l review of the results of each of the surrogate plant PRAs to identify the I primary accident sequences leading to core melt. From these sequences we l identify and evaluate the importance of safety-related systems whose failure )
leads to core melt. For this initial, system-related analysis we have excluded I from consideration accident sequences initiated by external factors such as 1
1
l earthquakes, floods, fires and tornados. Although such sequences may be significant, their analysis is beyond the scope of this study.
A sequence of specific failures which, in combination, results in core melt is called a cut set. The primary accident sequences leading to core melt, dominant cut sets, are listed in the PRAs, along with probability per year (frequency) that core melt will result from each of them. In general, 50 to 100 dominant cut sets are associated with up to 90% of the core melt probability.
In this study our objective is to obtain insights from the surrogate PRAs which can be applied to Rancho Seco. Consequently, we have focused our attention on the dominant cut sets, tabulating, sorting, and analyzing them.
For each PRA the list can be comprehended conceptually, and analyses do not require computerization. Thus we focus on lists of comprehensible size, which address most of the probability of core melt.
We have chosen core melt probability, as opposed to public risk, as the fundamental p aameter on which to base our analyses. This choice was based on the need to maintain the conceptual complexity of the analysis at a manageable level, while addressing the results of three different PRA studies dnd comparing the systems of three different plantr. From a regulatory standpoint public risk is certainly the move fundamental parameter. However, determination cf public risk requires determination of containment failure modes after core melt, plus subsequent estimation of public radiation doses incorporating both meteorological and demographic considerations. Clearly, this greatly increases the complexity of the failure sequences which must be studied. Consequently, this analysis addresses only the " front line" safety systems and important support systems which are called upon to prevent core melt.
Our analysis begins by tabulating the dominant cut sets listed in each of the PRAs studied. We have included cutsets representing more than 85% of the total core-melt probability for each of the three PRAs. Each cut set begins with an initiating event, and contains one or more subsequent events which lead to core melt. Thcse cut sets are " minimal" cut sets, they contain enough events to cause core melt and no more. The cut set listing begins with a code identifying the initiating event, and continues with codes identifying each of the subsequent failures until core melt is reached. Event codes are separated by astericks.
In the following section on Results, these tabulations of dominant cut l
sets and their probabilities are presented for each of the PRAs studied. In
, addition, the codes for the initiators and cut set elements are listed, along I with the frequency of initiating events and the probabilities of subsequent events.
For each PRA the tabulated cut sets have been analyzed to determine the
- relative importance of the various systems involved in the failure sequences.The I literature on risk assessment defines many measures of "importance". Entire reports (Vesely and Davis 1985) have been devoted to definition and use of 2
importance measures. In some analyses as many as nine different measures of importance have been calculated (Hinton and Wright 1986a).
We have selected the Fussell-Vesely Importance (Lambert 1975) for use in this study for several reasons. Most important is the fact that it provides a good, common sense, easily understood assessment of the significance of a failure. In addition, it is easy to compute. It has been used as the primary measure used for system ranking in other studies addressing inspection guidance, both directly (Hinton and Wright 1986b) and with a minor variation (Hinton and Wright 1986a).
The F-V Importance of a system, component, or initiating event is simply the fraction of the total core melt probability to which it contributes. It is obtained by summing the core melt probabilities for all cut sets which include failures of the system and dividing by the total core melt probability. J It is thus both conceptually and computationally simple. l An alternate measure of importance, which has not been used in this study, is the Risk Achievement Worth (Veseley et al. 1983). This measure has also l been used for system ranking in studies addressing inspection guidance (Higgins l 1986, Higgins et al .1984) . It measures the amount by which core melt frequency l is increased if the system (or component) in question is assumed to fail l (component failure probability set to one for each occurrence in each cut set). This measure is most sensitive to components designed to be highly reliable, such that failure during plant lifetime may be improbable. Thus failure of the Reactor Protection System to scram the reactor (probability 1.0 E-5), when assumed by settiag the probability to unity increases the calculated core melt frequency by roughly five orders of magnitude for sequences requiring reactor scram.
The F-V Importance, which we use, identifies the systems which make the greatest contribution to core melt probability during normal operation. In addition, it is roughly correlated with (though not linearly proportional to) the effect of an increase in system failure probability. For instance, consider a system with a F-V Importance of 0.25. By definition, it is involved in failures causing one part in four of the core melt probability. If the failure probability of that system is doubled, it then is involved in two parts in five of the r,ew total core melt probability, yielding an F-V Importance of 0.4. The greater the F-V Importance, the greater the increase in core melt probability caused by a doubling of the system failure probability. Thus, the F-V Importance measure.which was selected for use in this study is easily understood, and it approximately models the relative importances of systems with widely varying failure probabilities.
The F-V Importance has been calculated for each of the major systems and accident initiators addressed in the PRAs. This was done by reviewing the elements of the dominant cut sets and assigning them each to a system or failu e mode. Then, for each system or failure mode, the core melt probabilities for the cut sets to which it contributed were summed and the F-V Importance was calculated.

]
With one exception, the assignment of cut set elements to systems or.
failure modes was straightforward. The exception is human error. Human errors can cause failures two ways._ First, operators can make mistakes or fail to properly follow emergency operating procedures when responding to any of the off-normal or transient conditions identified as accident initiators. We have called these mistakes operator errors, and assigned cut set elements of this type to this category. Such errors are important to considerations of operator training and procedural clarity.
Second, components may be mispositioned or otherwise left in a condition which prevents them from performing their intended function by personnel errors made during previous maintenance, surveillance, or operational activities.
Cut set elements of this type were assigned to the system whose function was impaired. lhus, tney were treated the same as component malfunctions within that system. This results in a loss of information about hume errors associated with normal operations, maintenance and surveillance for the plant in question. However, we are dealing with two plants and three separate PRAs here, intending to make inferences about yet a third plant. Our approach includes the effects of human errors on system unavailability for each PRA, sacrificing only higher order details which are expected to be highly plant specific.
Many cut sets include recovery factors. These factors result from recognition by the PRA analysts that there cre many alternate ways to perform important system functions by cross connecting to other units, using equipment from other systems, or otherwise jury-rigging equipment during emergencies.
These recovery factors have been assigned a non-recovery probability in the PRAs to incorporate the fact that only in a fraction of component failures will operator ingenuity fail to provide the. function (if time and equipment for improvisation is available). Clearly, they are highly plant and sequence specific. The effect of the recovery factors is to reduce the core melt probability associated with cut sets containing failures which may be recovered from. Thus, from our point of view, they simply adjust the failure probability to a more appropriate value. Since the adjusted failure probabilities are used in calculating system importance, recovery factors are thus included implicitly in the calculations of system importance. They are not addressed otherwise. Also, we note the distinction between operator errors and recovery factors. Operator error addresses operator failure to accomplish something which has been explicitly planned for. The failure to recover failed functions by improvisation is not operator error.
In summary, then, for each PRA we tabulated the dominant cut sets associated with internal initiating events, and their corresponding core melt probabilities. We reviewed each of the elements of these dominant cut sets and categorized them according to the appropriate system or transient initiating event. We then used the cut set probabilities to calculate the Fussell-Vesely Importance for each system and initiating event. The following section on Results presents the products of these activities.
Subsequent steps in this project will study the details of these dominant cut sets and of the systems at ANO-1, Oconee and Rancho Seco to infer important failure modes likely to exist at Rancho Seco. This information will then be
I used to identify components at the Rancho Seco plant which are important to I the prevention of core melt during upset conditions.
1 3.0 RESULTS Tables 1, 2 and 3 present the event sequences with.the highest associated core melt probabilities from the ANO-1, Oconee, and Oconee-RSSMAP PRAs, respectively. Both of the Oconee PRAs which have been published have been studied, ta allow comparison of the results and to incorporate the insights of each. These tables provide the basis for the remainder of this project.
Each of the events contributing to these sequences will be investigated for relevance to the Rancho Seco powerplant and its implications for inspections there. These events are defined in Appendix A, in Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3.
Tables 1, 2 and 3 present information extracted from their parent PRAs. '
Their significance derives from the analysis and filtering process applied to condense the information important to this project from three large multi-volume reports. Along with the event definitions in Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3, they present the information necessary for the reader to understand the PRA results without having refer to the original documents. Houever, they retain the nomenclature and organization of the parent documents, to facilitate comparison to the parent documents. Further information may be found in Chapter 8 of the ANO-1 document (Kolb et al. 1982), Chapter 8 and Appendix D of the Oconee ;
document (Sugnet et al. 1984), and Chapter 6 of the Oconee-RSSMAP document (Kolb et al. 19E.).
The layout of Tables 1, 2 and 3 parallels the organization of the PRA summary tabulations and the event-tree approach used in the PRAs ther, elves.
The first column identifies the type of event sequence to which the specific j event sequences listed in column 3 belong. Basically, these sequences denote j an initiating event (LOCA, loss of offsite power, electrical bus fault, etc.),
followed by event types such as loss of all feedwater, failure of emergency core cooling safety injection, etc., which ultimately leads to core melt.
Column 3 of the tables identifies the specific failure sequences belonging to the event types. Column 2 lists the total core melt probability associated j with all event sequences of that event type, and the last column lists the core melt probability associated with each of the specific sequences identified in column 3. Probability values are listed using an abbreviated scientific notation to facilitate presentation. Thus, 0.001 is represented by 1.0E-3 to avoid superscripting powers of 10. Table 2 contains an extra column providing information to facilitate reference to the original Oconee PRA document.
Comparison of the probability totals of column 2 and the last column for each table shows that between 86% and 94% of the total core melt probability is accounted for by the listed sequences. That is why column 3 is titled dominant event sequences (referred to in the PRAs as dominant cut sets) -
they dominate the core melt probability. The criterion for listing was that each event sequence have probability exceeding SE-8 (ANO-1) or 1E-7, which l

was selected to ensure that at least 85% of the total sequence type core melt probability was incorporated in the list of dominant events.
Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3 of Appendix A present the definitions of the events listed in Tables 1, 2 and 3. These events have been grouped according to associated system or event type. Event probabilities are also listed, in units of frequency per reactor year for initiating events, and probability of component unavailability for subsequent events. For each event sequence leading to core melt, the associated core melt probability is the product of the initiating event frequency, times the probability of unavailability for each of the subsequent events, times a recovery factor.
Recovery factors are used to account for the fact that operators may be '
able to use alternate systems, components or flow paths to maintain coolant inventory and prevent core melt, in spite of the occurrence of the sequence of events identified in the tables as leading to core melt. A recovery factor i is actually the probability that operators will not be able to recover and prevent core melt (i.e., actually a non-recovery factor). Thus a small recovery factor indicates a high probability of recovery, and a recovery factor of ;
unity indicates certain failure to recover. !
All three of the PRAs studied use recovery factors, but in different ways. In the ANO-1 PRA, although recovery factors were associated with the event sequences, they were not named and tabulated separately. Consequently, they are not listed in Table A.1. For this PRA the event scquence probabilities of 1 differ from the product of the sequence probabilities by the recovery a factor for each event. For the Oconee PRAs recovery factors have been defined for specific event recoveries. They are defined in Tables A.2 and A.3, and listed in the event sequences of Tables 2 and 3. Consequently, for these tables the event sequence probability equals the products of the contributing events (including the recovery factors). ,
Table 4 presents the Fussell-Vesely Importance calculated for the major plant systems, for each of the PRAs. In general, each of the initiating and subsequent events listed in Tables 1, 2 and 3 are associated with a particular system. Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3 group these events according to the system with which they are associated. Initiating events were assigned to systems when associated with them; exceptions included LOCAs and loss of offsite power (LOP) which are not associated with plant front-line systems. Control failures were assigned to the system which failed due to loss of control. Recovery factors were not assigned to systems, because they simply adjust the system failure probability to the appropriate value leading to core melt.
With one exception, the F-V Importance values presented in Table 4 are ordered according to the system groupings used to organize Tables A.1, A.2 and '
A.3. The exception is that operator error has been listed first, to emphasize its high contribution to core melt probability estimates. The importance of operator qualifications, training, alertness, and of the clarity, completeness and ease of use of emergency operating procedures to transient control and termination are immediately apparent. Inspection planning should include attention to these factors, particularly as related to the errors identified in the vent sequences.

System Importances listed in Table 4 differ both between plants analyzed l and between the two PRAs for the Oconee plant. Nevertheless, some general i I
conclusi u s may be drawn about relative system Importances based on these results. The high importance of operator error has already been noted. In
(
addition, the initiating events--LOCA and loss of offsite power--have high Importance since they are automatically involved in the cut sets including subsequent system failures. Loss of main feedwater is likewise seen to have a very high Importance, since it must occur before emergency feedwater or HPI cooling is called upon and has the opportunity to fail.
Direct heat removal from the reactor has a high Importance in general.
Emergency Feedwater has a very high Importance for ANO-1, and for Oconee it is still quite significant despite the greater variety of EFW sources which may be cross-tied at this multi-unit plant.
ECCS core cooling, particularly LPI, also has a high Importance at both plants. The lower Importance of HPI may be somewhat misleading, because failures in the LPI system can fail the HPI system by denying it a water source, even when the HPI system operates properly. Two important ways this can happen are failure of the BWST outlet valves (belonging to the LPI system) which supply water to the HPI suction, and LPI system failure to provide water from the reactor building sump in the " piggy-back" mode of operation required for HPI supp y during small break LOCAs (including relief valve and pump seal failures .
The Importance of support systems is also high, but with plant specific di f ferences. The Service Water system at Oconee is highly Important because it cools both the HPI pumps and the EFW pumps. Consequently, SWS failure can cause a common mode failure of both of these systems. At AN0-1 (and also at Rancho Seco) the EFW pumps are cooled by recirculation of part of their own discharge and lack this dependence.
Support systems for onsite electrical supply also show Importance differences due to plant differences. The single-unit ANO-1 plant lacks the diversity of power sources which may be cross-tied at Oconee. In addition, Oconee has hydroelectric generators with greater reliability than the diesel '
generators at ANO-1. Consequently, ANO-1 is believed to better represent Rancho Seco in this area. It should be noted, however, that the high Importance value for the ANO-1 DC power system is dominated by a single, common-mode failure of both station batteries. The probability of such a failure has been greatly reduced since performance of the PRA, by changes to maintenance and surveillance procedures. The Importance value for the DC Power system with this failure excluded is just half of the tabulated value. Therefore, DC Power is still expected to be quite Important at Rancho Seco.
Differences in calculated system Importance values also result from differences in PRA approach. Thus, for instance, only the Oconee PRA specifically identified instrument air failures as cut set elements. In the other PRAs instrument air failures were considered as subevents leading to component unavailabilities, but were not itemized separately in the cut sets.
Consequently, only the Oconee column lists an importance value for the instrument air system.
15
From Table 4 we see that three emergency systems, two electrical systems, two support systems, plus safety relief valves and the reactor trip system have significant values of F-V Importance. Clearly, these nine systems are the ones upon which attention should be focused during inspections to ensure that the probability of core melt.is not increased by system degradation. Since l nuclear powerplants have on the order of a hundred identifiable systems, this use of PRA results has already provided significant system prioritization information to help focus inspection activities.
At this stage in the analysis, it is not possible to numerically rcnk i system Importances for Rancho Seco--indeed it may be neither possible nor i desirable to do so without plant-specific probability studies. Nevertheless, we have constrained the list of Important systems to a manageable number, and we have taoulated specific component failures in each of these systems which contribute significantly to the core melt probability at the surrogate plants.
In succeeding tasks we will examine for each of these systems the component failures identified in Tables 1, 2 and 3 as significantly affecting the core melt probability for the surrogate plants. By comparison of these system designs with those at Rancho Seco we will infer the Rancho Seco system components expected to be similarly important.
4.0 CHANGES AT ANO-1 After preparation of this report, and well into performance of the second phase of this project, we were informed that plant design changes have been made at ANO-1 which significantly affect the PRA results for this plant.
Dependence of the feedwater system on Vital AC and DC power has been changed so that loss of one of these buses would not trip the plant and provide an initiating event for fault tree analysis. Incorporation of the effects of this change into the ANO-1 PRA would eliminate many of the dominant cutsets listed in Table 1, and change F-V Importance values calculated for the Vital AC and DC Power systems.
We have not attempted to incorporate the results of these changes into our work for three reasons. First, a PRA incorporating the effects of these changes has not yet been published. Second, we have neither the time nor budget necessary to incorporate these changes. Third, it is not necessary for our purposes that the ANO-1 PRA represent the existing plant - only that the PRA and the plant descriptions which we use in subsequent comparisons with the Rancho Seco plant be self consistent.
For these reasons, the results presented in Table 1 are those obtained from the published PRA for ANO-1. The detailed comparisons of systems and operations performed in subsequent project activities utilized system descriptions drawn from the same source. Self ;onsistency has thus been maintained. We note that the function of the surrogate plants in this study is to provide examples against which Rancho Seco can be compared. The AN0-1 PRA, as published, fills that function.

APPENDIX A EVENT DEFINITIONS AND PROBABILITIES This appendix presents tables listing the definitions and probabilities of individual events (cut set elements) which contribute to the dominant event sequences (dominant cut sets) leading to ccre melt. Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3 list events from the ANO-1 (8), Oconee (9) and Oconee-RSSMAP (10) PRAs, respectively, corresponding with Tables 1, 2 and 3 in the body of the report.
Events have.been grouped according to the plant system to which they were assigned for system importance calculations. Event sequence probabilities listed in Tables 1, 2 and 3 generally equal the product of probabilities of .
the contributing events, except for the AN0-1 PRA, which does not itemize i recovery factors (see discussion in the body of the report).

4 aaSTR ACT M@ woras rem This two-volume report presents th developmen and first application of a methodology for using generic PRA information t . identify isk-important systems and components at a plant lacking a PRA. The metho logy r ' uires the detailed analysis of both j similarities and differences between ' lat plants. It is applied in an analysis of !
the Rancho Seco plant using informatio 1 f m PRAs for the ANO-1 and Oconee plants, j It is generic, drawing upon the functio ' and design similarities of B&W plants, yet it l incorporates considerable plant specif~ ty through the detailed comparative analysis of systems. Volume 1 presents the an ys p of the surrogate plant PRAs. Dominant cut j sets leading to core melt are identi ed a_ analyzed to determine the Fussel-Vesely !
Importance of plant systems. In V me 2 dominant cut sets are further analyzed to ,
identify and categorize important L ystem fai , re modes. The Rancho Seco plant is then I studied to determine the plausibi ity and imp' tance of similar failure modes for: 1 High Pressure Injection, Low Pr ' sure Injectio Emergency Feedwater, Service Water, j Vital AC power and DC Power s tems. Plant-spe ific information is then presented )'
identifying Rancho Seco comp ents, power suppl 1> , and operating modes associated with the failure modes for le first four of thes systems. 3 1
