720.39 Provide an inventory of elements for 40 species in k (p. 4, STCP User's Guide (MOD 1)) NUREG/CR-4587, July 1986)g [per Table 1 RESPONSE: ,

See Attachment E for fission product inventories.

O 720.40 Provide engineering drawings of: "

i) Reactor cavity and junction flow areas; }-

ii) Reactor building. cross-sections (concrete only) showing wall penetrations; iii) Elevation floor plans; iv) Overall' ventilation system for the reactor building; and v) The 4-V MAAP nodalization illustrating junction flow area, structure heat sink composition, areas and thicknesses, and junctionelevations.

RESPONSE

Later - Reactor Containment design parameters. ~

720.41 Provide the containment failure pressure distribution or mean and standard deviction as used in the PSS. .

RESPONSE

A failure pressure of containment design,+(a,c) was used for the APWR containment. In view of the recent Sandia containment ultimate pressure capacity tests, this is a very ,

conservative assumption. There was no distribution of failure pressures vs. probability of failure used in the probabilistic safety study, and therefore no mean or assceiated standard deviation. This was necessary due to the preliminary state of developunt of the containment design at the time of the performance of the core and containment analysis. ,

RESPONSE

The value for " probability of restoration of AC power as a function of time from accident initiation" used for ,the SP/90 PDA PRA was 50%

Data and Anal,ysis," 1982, which is included here as Attachment F.

720.44 If the containment fails by overpressure, what is the likely failure mode, failure location (s), and area of the breach?

An overpressure failure of the APWR containment was assumed to consist of a failure of the containment in the upper compartment. The area associated with such a failure was assumed to be +(a c) 720.45 Do sprays survive a hydrogen burn? What is the probability of their successful operation?

RESPONSE _:

Sprays will survive a hydrogen burn. The successful operation of the containment sprays is unaffected by a hydrogen burn because the spray water is capable of absorbing a large amount of the heat generated during a hydrogen burn.

+(a,c) 720.48 For severe accidents where the reactor vessel fails while the primary coolant system is still at high pressure, direct containment heating has been identified as a potential means for early containment

failure. There are large uncertainties in the methods used to make

\ current predictions of the likelihood and consequences of direct heating. However, if the vessel can be depressurized before failure occurs, direct heating is precluded. Some recent studies by the NRC and its contractors and by the industry have indicated that there are a number of potential schemes for ensuring such depressurization.

RESPONSE:  :

Such " accident management" schemes have not been considered in the APWR Probabilistic Safety Study. Potential strategies for ensuring primary system depressurization for APWR could be implemented through-the use'of specific' safety procedures during severe accidents.

-ATTACHMENT F l C 3.2 RECOVERY TIME FROM LOSS OF OFFSITE POWER q The object of this section is to use the data to estimate the probability that j

( recovery of offsite power after a LOSP exceeds a certain length of time. The empirical distribution of recovery time is shown in Table 3-2. l Table 3-2 i

( RECOVERY TIME DISTRIBUTION RECOVERY TIME NO. OF PCT. OF -

IN HOURS EVENTS EVENTS )

+(a,c) l l

l' NOTE: Recovery time not obtainable for 3 events in data 1

A rough estimate of the recovery time distribution would indicate that, as a i

/ whole, plants recover offsite power within one half hour about 48 percent of the time and within four he'urs about 77 percent of the time. The four hour threshold is important in LOSP events at nuclear plants since plant battery <

systems can drain of all power in about four hours. Recovery of offsite power, then, is crucial if the LOSP event is coupled with unavailabilities of the plant diesel generators or other backup power sources (assuming these sources cannot be made available within four hours).
