j AW-88-122 (1) I am Manager, Regulatory and Legislative Affairs, in the Nuclear and Advanced Technology Division, of the Westinghouse Electric Corporation :nd as such, I have been specifically delegated the function of reviewing the proprietary information sought to be  !

withheld from public disclosure in connection with nuclear power ,

plant licensing and rulemaking proceedings, and am authorized to l apply for its withholding on behalf of the Westinghouse Energy Systems, Nuclear Fuel, and Power Generation Business Units.  !

(2) I am making this Affidavit in conformance with the provisions of 10CFR Section 2.790 of the Commission's regulations and in conjunction with the Westinghouse application for withholding accompanying this Affidavit.

(3) I have personal knowledge of the criteria and procedures utilized by the Westinghouse Energy Systems, Nuclear Fuel, and Power Generation Business Units in designating information as a trade secret, privileged or as confidential commercial or financial'information. i (4) Pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (b)(4) of Section 2.790 of

{

the Commission's regulations, the following is furnished for consideration by the Commission in determining whether the information sought to be withheld from public disclosure should be withheld, i

J 1

(i) The information sought to be withheld from public disclosure is owned and has been held in confidence by Westinghouse. l 1

I l

AW-88-122 i i

(ii) The information is of a type customarily held in confidence by Westinghouse and not customarily disclosed to the public. 4 Westinghouse has a rational basis for determining the types of information customarily held in confidence by it and, in that connection, utilizes a system to determine when and whether to hold certain types of information in confidence. The

. application of that system and the substance of that system constitutes Westinghouse policy and provides the rational basis-required.

l Under that system, information is held in confidence if it falls l in one or more of several types, the release of which might result in the loss of an existing or potential competitive advantage, as follows: '

f l

(a) The information reveals the distinguishing aspects of a l process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.) where prevention of its use by any of Westinghouse's competitors l

without license from Westinghouse constitutes a competitive i economic advantage over other companies. I (b) It consists of supporting data, including test data, relative to a process (or component, structure, tool, method, etc.), the application of which data secures a 4 competitive economic advantage, e.g., by optimization or improved marketability.

I (c) Its use by a competitor would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing a similar product.

(d) It reveals cost or price information, production capacities, budget levels, or commercial strategies of Westinghouse, its customers or suppliers.

(e) It reveals aspects of past, present, or future. Westinghouse j or customer funded development plans and progrcms of potential. commercial value to Westinghouse..

l (f) It contains patentable ideas, for which patent protection may be desirable.

(g) It is not the property of Westinghouse, but must be treated as proprietary by Westinghouse according to agreements with j the owner. l There are sound policy reasons behind the Westinghouse system which include the following:

(a) The use of such information by Westinghouse gives '

Westinghouse a competitive advantage over its competitors.

It is, therefore, withheld from disclosure to protect the l Westinghouse competitive position.

1 (c) Use by our competitor-would put. Westinghouse at a competitive disadvantage by. reducing his expenditure of resources at our expense.

(d) Each component of: proprietary information pertinent to a .,

particular. competitive advantage is potentially as'valuableL ~i as the total competitive advantage. . If competitors acquire components of proprietary information, any one component. i may be the key to the entire puzzle,-thereby depriving-Westinghouse of a competitive advantage.

i (e) Unrestricted disclosure would jeopardize the position of j prominence of Westinghouse in the world market, and thereby' give a market advantage to the competition of those countries.

Miller, Director, Standardization and Non-Power Reactor Project Directorate, NS-NRC-88-3382, November 8, 1988. .

This document identifies specific design features and l

l improvements which the WAPWR will have in order to meet current regulatory requirements. In addition, it establishes the EAPWR j l position with respect to each applicable requirement. '{

Public disclosure of this information is likely to cause 1

substantial harm to the competitive position of Westinghouse as '

it would reveal the description of the improved design features of the MAPWR; Westinghouse plans for future design, testing and analysis aimed at design verification; and demonstration of the design's capability to meet evolving NRC/ACRS safety goals. All of this information is of competitive value because of the large amount of effort and money expended by Westinghouse over a l

period of several years in carrying out this particular development program. Further, it would enable competitors to use the information for commercial purposes and also to meet NRC requirements for licensing documentation, each without purchasing the right from Westinghouse to use the information.

Information regarding its development programs is valuable to Westinghouse because:

(a) Information resulting from its development programs gives ]

Westinghouse a competitive advantage over its competitors. I It is, therefore, withheld from disclosure to protect the '

Westinghouse competitive position.

(b) It is information which.is marketable in many ways. The extent to which such information is available to j competitors diminishes the Westinghouse ability to sell products and services involving the use of the information.

DSER Open Issue 1: Interface criteria for structur'ai design features (3.1).

Response

As stated in Subsection 1.1.1.1 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 3, " Introduction and Site," the RESAR-SP/90 PDA design includes additional design scope beyond the traditional Westinghouse NSSS, designated as the Nuclear Power Block (NPB), to include all Seismic Category I structures, systems and components that are essential to the safe and proper operation of the nuclear power plant. The

)

balance of' plant (B0P) includes the turbine building, the waste disposal  !

building, the service and administration buildings, and the essential service- )

water / cooling water structure end the ultimate heat sink. Table 1.1-1 of l RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 3 provides the list of NPB components (including.

structures and systems), and those non-NPB components which require that design and interface criteria be provided.

I Subsection 1.9.1 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 3 identifies'the safety related 1 interfaces between the NPB and the site specific items which will be addressed  !

by the plant specific applicants referencing the RESAR-SP/90. Table 1.9-3 provides a listing of site parameters, the magnitude specified in the design of the NPB and the module where the interface requirement is further discussed.

1 Westinghouse believes that the structural design interface requirements are provided in that table and throughout the structural design description sections.

DSER Open Issue 2: Review of flow diagrams showing quality group classification (3.2.1).  ;

Response

The resolution of this issue is contingent upon the completion of the staff's review of RESAR-SP/90 flow diagrams and Westinghouse's resolution of Open Issue 3. This open issue will therefore be addressed in the final SER.

WAPWR-DSER 1 JUNE 1989 E978e:1d i

t DSER Open Issue 3: Quality group classification of strectures, systems and components (3.2.1, 3.2.2). 1 i

Response

Per several conference call discussions with staff. mambers (Engineering Branch), it was agreed that it was acceptable for Westinghouse to use ANSI /ANS 51.1-1983 in - its safety classification for pressure retaining systems and components. However, ANSI /ANS 51.1 will not be used for classifying non pressure-retaining components, and SP/90 must me e t the requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix B and Regulatory Guide 1.26.

Additionally, it was agreed that previously unacceptable responses (as stated on pages 3-3 and 3-4 of the March 1988 DSER) to NRC questions 210.1, 210.3, 210.12, 210.13, 210.16, 210.25, 210.27, 210.29, 210.34, 210.35 and 210.72 l would now be acceptable to staff.

l Our review of the initial responses to staff questions 210.6 through 210.9 indicates they are essentially correct but require some clarification as shown below:

Q/A 210.6: Accurate as written, j

4 Q/A 210.7: A clarification is in order: The pressure boundary of the ]

shell side of the letdown and excess letdown heat exchangers- 1 is not required for any safety class functions, while the pressure boundary of the tube side is specified as Safety Class 3. The tubes are Safety Class 3 in order to ensure their integrity, because they normally contain radioactive j fluid. .

1 l l Therefore, while the pressure boundary of the .shell side of these heat exchangers has no special safety classification, it j l is required to mechanically support the tube bundles. I l

0/A 210.8 The SP/90 design does not incorporate a seal water heat exchanger to cool the flow returning from the reactor coolant pump seals; instead it incorporates a seal injection heat exchanger to cool the water flowing into the seals. The -l return flow will be within the operating temperature range of the CVCS volume control tank. 1 I

Thus, Table 3.2-1 correctly lists a seal injection heat exchanger (new as part of the SP/90) and not a seal return  ;

heat exchanger (traditional).

0/A 210.9 Accurate as written.

A discussion of the endurance of the Westinghouse Model 100A pump / seal experiencing full temperature operation, with a loss of seal injection has j been provided. The discussion includes examples of testing and analysis of {

this model pump.

1 Westinghouse RC pumps have used a system of . combined CCW cooled thermal barriers and cool seal injection since the inception of shaft seal pumps for l PWR service in Westinghouse design plants. In addition to the Model 100A, there are Models 63, 70, 93, 93A, 93D and 93A-1 thermal barrier designs. ]

A methodology for design by analysis has been developed and used in the design of over 300 pumps manufactured by Westinghouse and its licensees. Customer I events involving loss of injection are not well documented, however, evidence I of field investigations indicate that many events have been experienced with no adverse or even significant consequences. In addition to the design i calculations prepared for the detailed pump design, . full scale performance tests have been conducted on the Model 100 RC pump and thermal barrier '

models. Overall a total of [ ] Model 100 RC pumps have been manufactured' and b,c received full pressure and temperature tests at WEMD Cheswick. As a minimum, a [ ] hour loss of injection test was conducted on each pump (some additional b,c  :

testing was performed on the lead unit Krsko #1 and on Vandellos 2 pump S/W 2). In all cases, the pump / seal combinations achieved stable operation  !

within the normal recommended limits of pump seal operation.

)

1 The RCP thermal barrier adequacy depends on two factors, the ultimate heat extraction capability of the pump cooling coils and thermal barrier, end the thermal coefficient of the No. I seal. Briefly the thermal barrier must have ,

the heat capacity to deliver water to the seal inlet at a low enough temperature and in sufficient quantity to assure that the seal achieves a stable operating condition. {

t Since viscosity decreases with increasing temperature, conver.ging tapered hydrostatically balance No. I seals of the type used exclusively in  !

Westinghouse pumps, exhibit increasing leakage rate with increasing seal inlet-temperature. In addition to the effect of viscosity there are thermal /

mechanical effects on the seal components which can result in increasing leakage with increasing temperature. All of the Model 100 pungs were tested l

with Aluminum 0xide style No. I seals. All Model 100 pumps achieved a stable I thermal and leakage equilibrium with the injection off. Typical pump response to the loss of injection is shown in the attached curve plotted from the

]

Vandellos 2 pump data. Experience with the present Silicon Nitride No. I seal j design indicates that this design has approximately half of the change in leakage /*F that was exhibited by the original Aluminum Oxide design. With respect to the silicon nitride seal design (currently supplied with all new pumps) the Model 100 has more heat removal margin than it did relative to the original aluminum oxide seal design.

The Model 100 RCP has substantial endurance (weeks or months) with the seal injection off. Ultimately the operating time in this mode is only limited by recommended inspection frequencies and seal life. The WEMD instruction book, however, recommends limiting operation in this mode to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This recommendation is based on limiting the opportunity for the combined loss of i injection and loss of CCW event (loss of all seal cooling). j i

Figure 01-3 shows the injection flow rate (mostly zero), seal inlet i temperature and seal leakage during the >4 hour loss of injection test for Vandellos S/N-2, U431. The seal inlet can be seen to stabilize at about 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> into the test, and likewise the No. I seal leakage rate can be seen to come to an equilibrium condition.

a Not shown is the injection temperature which was [ ] at the start of this b,c l test, and which is restored at [ ). This is~a thermal shock test for b,c )

seal integrity. It can be seen that the seal responds initially with a sharp reduction in leakcge rate and then begins to recover toward the normal equilibrium leakage rate. This test was considered to be both typical, and i highly successful.

DSER Open Issue 4: Safety classification of safety-related instrument lines (3.2.2). I

Response

This topic is currently being reviewed by the Staff as part of ongoing activities related to the EPRI ALWR Requirements Document, Chapter 6. At this time, Westinghouse adopts the Industry position, which can be summarized as follows:

" Safety related instrument sensing lines will be designed in'accordance '

with ASME III except for supports which will be Seismic Category I, but will not be designed to ASME NF criteria. Installation will be in accordance with a OA Category I, non-ASME program that meets '10CFR50 Appendix B requirements."  !

i If the industry position were to change in the future in order to achiave resolution of staff concerns, Westinghouse agrees to adopt such retised position in its FDA application.

DSER Open Issue 5: Quality group classification of reactor internals (3.,2.2, 3.9.5). l Response: ,

The reactor internals are classified Safety Class 3 in accordance with ANSI /ANS 51.2. However, it should be noted that. contrary to the Staff's understanding as expressed in the Narch 1988 DSER, the reactor internals are WAPWR-DSER 6 JUNE 1989 5978e:1d

)

not ASME Class 2 since reactor internals are designed in accordance with the '

requirements of Subsection NG of ASME III as indicated in Table 3.2-1 of RESAR SP/90 Module 7

  • Structural / Equipment Design." Since. additionally the same table designates the reactor internals as belonging to Quality Group B, it is 1 Westinghouse's opinion that the Staff's concerns are adequately addressed and that, in fact, the Safety Classification has little or no practical significance in the particular case of the reactor internals.  !

l DSER Open Issue 6: Tornado loadings--maximum wind speed (3.3.2).

Response

Westinghouse has reviewed the NRC staff's interim position on _ design basis tornado characteristics and agrees to utilize this interim position in lieu of the recommendations of ANSI Standard 2.3, 1983.

The maximum tornado wind speed of 330 mph will be utilized in establishing the velocities of the postulated tornado missiles. The plant will be designed for the Spectrum 11 missiles identified in Standard Review Plan 3.5.1.4, Rev 2.

The missile velocities corresponding to the design maximum wind speed of 330 mph will be taken as the average of the velocities given for Region I (maximum wind speed = 360 mph) and Region II (maximum wind speed = 300 mph). i i

Subsections 3.3.2 and 3.5.1.4 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 7 " Structural /

Equipment Design" have been revised to show the above positions.

Response

Westinghouse has committed to comply with the NRC position on local and overall damage predictions as stated i_n SRP Section 3.5.3, paragraphs 11.1 and 2. Most of these commitments are already incorporated in RESAR-SP/90.

Criteria for local damage prediction are given by the empirical equations for perforation and scabbing of concrete and steel barriers in Subsection 3.5.3 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Modulo 7, " Structural / Equipment Design." Minimum thicknesses l of external barriers designed to resist tornado missiles are given in Subsection 3.5.1.4 of RESAR-SP/9D PDA Module 7. Criteria for overall damage prediction are also given in Subsection 3.5.3 of Nodule 7 which references applicable codes or specifications for the stress and strain limits. Concrete WAPWR-DSER 8 L e' 1989 5978e:Id

J structures are designed to ACI-349 (see Subsections 3.8.3.2 and 3.8.4.2 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 7) which defines maximum allowable ductility ratios for ]

.i DSER Open Issue 12: Postulated breaks in American Society of Mechanical

]

Engineers (ASME) Class 1 piping (3.6.2).

Response

There are no changes to RESAR-SP/90. The recent change in the NRC SRP >

j (June,1987) concerning the use of Equation (10) alone for determining pipe l rupture locations was intended to simplify ihe engineering caNulations without resulting in more pipe rupture locations than the earlier version of the SRP (July, 1981). This conclusion was predicated on the removal from j Equation (10) of the linear thermal gradient stress term, and the projected successful application of leak-Lefore-break (LBB) to all Class 1 piping. In practice, because of leak detection capabilities, only larger piping (six inches and larger) will qualify for LBB. For smaller piping in Westinghouse PWR's, this change will lead to more pipe rupture locations which could adversely affect safety by increasing plant congestion and maintenance activities. The NRC staff is requested to evaluate the total impact of this SRP change before requiring implementation by the industry.

In addition, the recent SRP limit on Equation (10) for Class 1 piping is 80%

of 3.0 Sm. This is not equivalent to the 80% SRP requirement on Equations (9) and (10) for Class 2 and Class 3 piping. For Class 1 piping, the ASME Code provides limits for Equations (12) and (13), as well as cumulative usage factor requirements; the Code has no limit for Equation (10). For Class 2/3 piping the ASME Code does provide limits on Equations (9) and (10). The use of Equations (12) and (13) provides a more appropriate basis for postulation WAPWR-DSER 9 JUNE 1989 E978e:1d

of breaks in Class 1 piping, and is consistent with the criteria used for Class 2/3 piping._ Further, the use of Equation (10) alone .aakes the stress criteria in break exclusion zones less restrictive than for other Class 1 piping. The current requirement to postulate pipe rupture in Class 1 piping baced on Equation (10) alone is unjustified and could have an overall adverse impact on plant .dy .

DSER Open Issue 13. Classification of non-ASME Class piping (3.6.2).

Response

There are no changes to RESAR-SP/90. The design basis for non-seismic piping in the vicinity of seismic piping is discussed in Subsection 3.7.3.13 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 7, " Structural / Equipment Design." The non-seismic piping is analyzed for the SSE condition. Seismically analyzed non seismic piping need not be reclassified as Seismic Category I piping.

DSER Open Issue 14: Compliance with Branch Technical Position (BTP) HEB 3-1 (3.6.2).

Response

The following has been inserted before the last ,centence on Page 3.6-11 of Subsection 3.6.2.1.1E in RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 7, " Structural / Equipment Design":

A structure that separates a high-energy line outside containment, which has not been demonstrated to meet mechanistic pipe break requirements, from an essential component is designed to withstand the consequences of the pipe break in the high-energy line which produces the greatest effect at the structure, irrespective of the fact thst the criteria of Section 3.6.2.1.1B & C might not iaquire such a break to be postulated.

WAPWR-DSER 10 JUNE 1989 5978e:Id

DSER Open Issue 15: Pressure test of guard pipe (3.6.2).

Response

Subsection 3.6.2.4 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Module 7, " Structural / Equipment Design,"

has been revised as follows to reflect the staff position:

" Guard pipe assemblies are designed in accordance with ANSI /ANS 58.2-1988 except that the pressure test is performed at a pressure not less than their design pressure. The design pressure is the maximum operating pressure of the enclosed process pipe."

DSER Open Issue 16: Limits of break exclusion area for ASME Class 2 piping (3.6.2).

Response

There are no changes to RESAR-SP/90. The purpose of the restraints is to assure that the isolation valves can close if a pipe rupture were to occur outside containment beyond the restraint. Westinghouse has located the restraint as close as pmeticable to the valve. If a pipe rupture is postulated between the isolation valve and the restraint, valve operability l could not be assured. This position is consistent with current industry practice, which has been accepted by the NRC on existing nuclear plants.

Strict compliance with the position, as stated in MEB 3-1, is not practical. 4 DSER Open Issue 17- Dynamic load factor for pipe whip restraints (3.6.2).

(3.9.2.2). -l 1

Response: l There are no changes to RESAR-SP/90. Westinghouse believes chat the options to account for high frequency (> 33 Hz) modes in Subsection. 3.7.3.7 of RESAR-SP/90 PDA Modulo 7, " Structural / Equipment Design," are acceptable alternatives to the requirements in SRP Section 3.7.2 as explained below. The s SRP requirement to assure that inclusion of additional modes does not increase the response by more than 10% was intended to assure that no significant high )

frequency modes were omitted from the solution. This requirement is important only when the high frequency modes are being omitted. However, the high frequency modes are included in all of the options in Subsection 3.7.3.7 of Module 7.

When any of the above options are used, the key parameter becomes the upper bound frequency that is chosen for the flexible modes. The value of 33 Hz is appropriate when the amplitude of the design floor response spectra is closely WAPWR-OSER 19 JUNE 1989 i E978e:1d

The AISC code used for qualification of the supports has been changed from AISC-N690 to AISC S326 since the AISC-N690 code for safety related structures has not yet been endorsed by the staff.
