FAX TO: BILL HUFFMAN DIANE JACKSON TOM KENYON JOE SEBROSKY Tomorrow, December 31.1996, we will be changing the NRC Status for the following Open items from " Active" or " Proposed" to " Action N", except where noted. Recommended changes were provided for many of these items, as 'vell as others, by fax on December 9,1996. NRC provided i status designations for most of the items identified on December 9 but not the f allowing. Various status designations were recommended on December 9. But to avoid unilateral disposition of the items, all will be designated " Action N". This will keep them active, recognize that Westinghouse plans no work on these items pending review by NRC, and avoid the use of " Active" or " Proposed", as we agreed.

Joe, In accordance with our letter NSD-NRC-%-4913 of December 13,1996, we will be changing the NRC Status of OITS items 4123 through 4144 to Action N unless we hear from you. We will do the change tomorrow (12-31-%). Note that this shouldn't be considered a unilateral action. Since we have not heard to the contrary, we assi me the responses provided are sufficient for review. Please call if you have questions.

He system conditions and filters outside air supplied to the containment for compatibility I with personnel access during maintenance and refueling operations. Based on the maximum I and minimum outside air normal temperature conditions shown in Chapter 2, Table 21, the I system supplies air between 50 and 70 F. The air is distributed and conditioned within the I containment by the containment recirculation system (subsection 9.4.6). Radiologically Controlled Areas Outside Containment The containment air filtration system provides filtrathn of exhaust air from the fuel handling area, auxiliary, or annex buildings to maintain these areas at a slightly negative pressure with respect to the adjacent areas when the radiologically controlled area ventilation system detects high airborne radioactivity or pressure differential. Refer to subsection 9.4.3 for a description of the radiologically controlled area ventilation system. 9.4.7.2

System Description

The containment air filtration system is shown in Figure 9.4.7-1. 9.4.7.2.1 General Description The containment air filtration system consists of two 100 percent capacity supply air handling units. a ducted supply and enhaust air system with containment isolation valves and piping, regivers, exhaust fans, filtration units, automatic controls and accessories. The supply air hardl.ng units are located in the south air handling equipment room of the annex building at elevation 158'-0". The supply air handling units are connected to a common air intake plenum, located at the south end of the fan rogm discharge the supply air towards the n east containment recirculation cooling system (VCS) r circulation unit to distribute the purge air within the containment. Refer to subsection 9.4. for a description of the containment recirculation cooling system. g g g,cr 3 G-Q2. The exhaust air filtration units are located within the radiologically controlled area of the annex building at elevation 135'-3" and 146'-3". The filtration units are connected to a ducted system with isolation dampers to provide HEPA filtration and charcoal adsorption of exhaust air from the containment, fuel handling area, auxiliary and annex buildings. A gaseous radiation monitor is located downstream of the exhaust air filtration units in the common ductwork to provide an alarm if abnormal gaseous releases are detected. The plant vent exhaust flow is monitcred for gaseous, particulate and iodine releases to the environment. During containment purge, the exhaust air filtration units satisfy 10 CFR 50 Appendix I guidelines (Reference 20) for offsite releases and m:ets 10 CFI'. 20 (Reference 21) allowable effluent concentration limits when combined with gaseous releases from other sources. During conditions of abnormal airborne radioactivity in the fuel handling area, auxiliary and/or annex buildings, the filtration units provide filtered exhaust to minimize unfiltered offsite releases. The size of the containment air filtration system supply and exhaust air lines that penetrate the containment pressure boundary is 26 inches in diameter. Each penetration includes an Revision: 10 W Westinghouse December 20,1996 9.4 42

The temperature of the rooms is maintained by thermostats which control the chilled water control valves for cooling and the integral face / bypass dampers for heating. Electric reheat coils are provided in the ductwork to each room to maintain close temperature control. Outside air is mixed with recirculated air to maintain a positive pressure. / 9.4.9.2.1.3 Local Area Heating and Ventilation The lube oil reservoir room, clean and dirty tube oil storage room, toilet areas (facilities), and secondary sampling laboratory fume hood have centrifugal exhaust fans to remove flammable vapors, odors, or chemical fumes as required. The auxiliary boiler room, diesel driven fire pump room, and motor driven fue pump rooms have exhaust ventilators to remove heat generated by the boiler equipment and fire pumps. Air is pulled from the general area of the turbine building through wall fire damper openings in the rooms and is exhausted outside of the turbine building to the atmosphere. Fach fire pump room is heated by a hot water unit heater to provide freeze protection for the fire pumps. Hot water heating is not provided in the auxiliary boiler room, however, air is pulled from the general area of the turbine building to control space temperature in the boiler room. i 9.4.9.2.2 Component Description j The turbine building ventilation system is comprised of the following major components. l These components are located in the non-seismic turbine building. HVAC Air Handling Units Each air handling unit is a horizontal draw-through cabinet type consisting of a mixing box section, low effsciency filter, high efficiency filter, integral face / bypass damper, hot water heating coil, chilled water cooling coil. The electrical equipment room air handling units include a return air fan and = c".ns: fan. The personnel area air handling units include a j b supply air fan. sg Exhaust Ventilators The turbine building roof exhaust ventilators are hooded, direct driven, propeller type with pneumatic operated backdraft damper. Ventilators in the auxiliary boiler room and fire pump room are smaller, two-speed, propeller type with pneumatically actuated backdraft dampers. Ventilators in the lube oil rooms and restrooms are centrifugal type. 1 Revision: 9 August 9,1996 9.4 56 T Westinghouse

PRHR Heat Transfer Correlation Date: December 17,1996 Pages: 17, including this cover sheet. l j COMMENTS:

Ralph, Attached is a draft copy of what we will be sending you on the above subject. If you get a chance to look at it, I'd appreciate any feedback you might have Wed. or Thurs. Will you be at ACRS meeting? If not, Larry indicated we might be get together after the meeting on level swell.

i Thanks. j 1 j j I From the desk of. Earl H. Novendstern Manager. Advanced and WER Plant Safety Analysis Westinghouse PO Box 355 i A ttsburgh, PA 15235 i (412)374 4790 Fax: (412) 374-5744 a

a The analysis of the PRHR test data (WCAP-12980, revision 2) has indicated that the heat transfer correlations used for the PRHR, which were given in the original LOFTRAN Code Applicability Document, WCAP-14234, Appendix A, require modification. The table below summarizes the original PRHR heat transfer correlations used and the new correlations to be used.

Table ! Region Original Heat Transfer New Heat Transfer Correlation Used Correlation i Forced Convection Inside of Petukhov-Popov Ditrus-Boelter the PRHR tubes Natural Convection Heat Ecken-Jackson McAdams Transfer Outside of the PRHR s Tubes Boiling Heat Transfer Outside Exporent Type Based on Modified Rohsenow of the PRHR Tubes Phare 1 PRHR Data The forced convection heat transfer on the inside of the PRHR tubes will use the Ditrus-Boelter j correlation. This correlation has been compared to the analyzed PRHR data as shown in Figure 9-3 from the revised PRHR test analysis report (WCAP-12980, revision 2). The generally more accepted ] Ditrus-Boelter single-phase convective heat transfer correlation provides reasonable agreement with the PRHR data, panicularly at higher Reynolds numbers. The comparisons presented in WCAP-12980 indicate that the Ditrus-Boelter correlation is acceptable for calculating primary side PRHR heat transfer. j The natural convection heat transfer correlation used on the outside of the PRHR tubes, originally l used in LOFTRAN, was the Ecken Jackson correlation. When comparisons of this correlation to the PRHR test data were made (at the bottom of the tubes), this correlation was best-estimate to slightly high relative to the data. The McAdams natural convection correlation was evaluated and found to give a better fit to the test data as seen in Figures 9-4 and 9-5 from WCAP-12980 Revision 2. Therefore, LOFTRAN analyses will change from Ecken-Jackson to McAdams for the natural 1 convection heat transfer. It should be noted that for natural convection heat transfer in NOTRUMP l and WCOBRA/ TRAC McAdams is used. Based on the PRHR test data results presented in WCAP-12908 Revision 1, the boiling data was j originally fitted to an equation where heat flux was an exponential function of AT using the following form: i 4 q," = A ATs heat flur. where q/ = wall temperature minus saturation temperature AT = A&B= coefficients found from fits to Phase 1 PRHR test data The steady state datg from Phase 1 and Phase 2 tests were used to fit a modification of the Rohsenow nucleate boiling correlation. The Rohsenow correlation was selected since the Rohsenow parameters

i e t 6 iO l are easy to calculate and do a good job of correlating nucleate boiling data and reflect the pressure dependency of the IRWST. The nominal fit to the PRHR data is shown in Figure 9-20 along with the upper and lower 95th percentile fits to the data. For the upper 95th percentile, this line is defined such that 95 percent of the data lie below this line. For the lower 95th percentile line, 95 percent of l the data lies above the line. In future LOFTRAN analyses, the nominal fit for the Rohsenow l correlation will be used for nucleate boiling heat transfer. Use of the nominal Rohsenow fit is consistent with the approach used for other heat transfer regimes i in the PRHR and in general with heat transfer models used elsewhere in plant safety analyses. Use of nominal, rather than the upper or lower 95th percentile of the correlation, is appropriate since i adequate conservatism in the safety analysis is maintained by using many other independent conservative input assumptions used in the safety analysis. The analyses use a bounding approach where many of the plant parameters are assumed to be at the worst case upper or lower bound values The safety analyses assumes maximum uncertainties on initial conditions such as RCS flow, RCS { temperature, RCS pressure, pressurizer water volume and steam generator inventory. Uncertainties i are also included in core neutron kinetics parameters, setpoints and actuation delays. For core decay heat, the ANS 1979 + 2 sigma model is used. For the PRHR model, uncertainties are included on PRHR volumes, surface areas, flow resistances. IRWST initial temperature and actuation time delays. I To quantify the sensitivity of the accident analyses to the uncertainty in the Rohsenow correlation. transients were run which used the upper 95 percentile line, the lower 95 percentile line and the nominal fit lines. A plant cooldown transient and a heatup transient whid f.xercised the wide range of conditions expected in the PRHR were chosen The cooldown transient amlyzed was the l inadvertent operation of the PRHR while at power. Operation of the PRHR a; power will result in i forced flow through ihe PRHR with high inlet temperatures. His transient will have relatively high j heat fluxes and a higher proportion of the PRHR tube bundle will be in nucleate boiling. This transient will show the representative maximum overall deviation in heat transfer due to the uncertainty in the Rohsenow boiling heat transfer correlation. l l As a representative heatup transient, the loss of normal feedwater event was chosen. During this transient the PRHR is operated under forced flow conditions and under natural circulation flow j conditions. During a loss of normal feedwater and similar loss of steam generator heat sink j transients, the PRHR provides the safety related means for long term core decay heat removal. l l Figures 1 through 4 show the results of the inadvertent operation of the PRHR while at power analysis. Inadvertent operation of the PRHR at power causes an injection of relatively cold water into the reactor coolant system. His produces a reactivity insertion in the presence of a negative j moderator temperature coefficient. Since the fluid in the PRHR heat exchanger is initially in equilibrium with the IRWST temperature, the initial flow out of the PRHR is significantly colder than i the RCS fluid. Fouowing this initial insurge, the PRHR outlet temperature increases and is limited j by the cooling capacity of the PRHR. As shown in Figure 3, around 12 seconds there is a large peak j in core power due to the initial insurge of cold fluid from the PRHR. After the original fluid in the PRHR fluid is purged, the temperature of the fluid exiting the PRHR increases and core power decreases to a value which is in equilibrium with the heat removal rate of the steam generators and the PRHR. For this event the peak core power achieved and the minimum DNBR are dependent on i the initial volume of cold fluid in the PRHR and are independent of the magnitude of the PRHR heat transfer. PRHR heat transfer capacity only affects the final equilibrium power. As shown in Figure 1, with the RCPs runmng and the reactor at power conditions, the PRHR removes approximately 10% of rated plant power. The deviation in overall PRHR heat removal capacity due to the j uncertainty in the Rohsenow nucleate boiling correlation is less than i0.7% of plant rated power. I 1 i I

e i O Figures 5 through 8 show the results of a complete loss of normal feedwater analysis using the upper 95 percentile line, the lower 95 percentile line and the nominal fit lines for the Rohsenow correlation. The PRHR total heat flux is shown in Figure 5. The reactor coolant pumps are running until just after 1000 seconds. While the RCPs are running, PRHR heat transfer is - 6 % of rated plant power. After the reactor coolant pumps are tripped, PRHR heat transfer drops to - 1% of rated plant power. 4 During the period where pumps are running the, uncenainty in the boiling heat transfer coefficient 3 causes a total deviation of less than i0.5% of rated plant power. After the RCPs trip the difference in overall PRHR heat transfer is negligible. From Figure 6. the deviation in peak pressurizer water volume is +67 ft' to -42 ft. The peak pressurizer water volume occurs in all of the three cases at 8 least 5 hours after the stan of the transient. Figure 7 shows that there is no increase in peak RCS pressure due to the correlation uncenainty. l The use of the nominal fit for the Rohsenow boiling correlation is consistent with the other heat transfet regime correlations used and other conservative assumptions used in the analysis bot.nd the correlation uncenainty. In conclusion the uncertainty in the boiling heat transfer correlation has small ( negligible impact on the results of the accident analysis and no impact on the licensing basis conclusions of the accident analyses. Westinghouse believes the application of the correlations are sufficiently conservative to address the data scatter observed in the tests and intends to utilize nominal values of the PRHR heat transfer correlations for the final Chapter 15 SAR analyses. l l

The Role of Lone-term Recirculation in the PRA Long-tenn recirculation is the final cooling phase that occurs for: all LOCA events other loss of heat sink events that lose RCS inventory through the pressurizer safety valves and actuate ADS Long-term recirculation will usually occur with the pumped RNS. The back-up to this is a natural circulation mode of cooling. The frequency of long-term natural circulation is approximately 7.5E-4 / year (once every 1333 years). If the RNS is assumed not to exist (as assumed in the Focused PRA), the frequency of the natural circulation mode is approximately 7.5E-3 / year (once every 133 years). ) l l i J

,,,uld d he primary DNB correlation used for the analysis of the AP600 fuel is the WRB-2 correlation./Aam<P-10444-P<J'rA (Reference 4) provides further details. TMs cved WCA sppIna n t a sA t atApuo n.ss,~s. He WRB-2 DNB correlation was developed to take credit for the intermediate flow mixer grid design. A limit of 1.17 is applicable for the WRB-2 correlation. De measured critical heat flux plotted against predicted critical heat flux using the WRB 2 correlation is shown in l WCAP-10444-P-A (Reference 4). ne applicable range of parameters for the WRB-2 correlation is: Pressure 1440 5 P s 2490 psia Local mass velocity 0.9 s Gd10's 3.7 lb/ft -hr 2 local quality -0.1 s Xw 5 0.3 , Ileat length, inlet to DNB location I, s 14 feet Grid spacing 10 5 g,5 26 inches Equivalent hydraulic diameter 0.37 s D, s 0.51 inches Equivalent heated hydraulic diameter 0.46 s D 5 0.59 inches ne WRB-2 correlation was developed based on mixing vane data and, therefore, is only applicable in the heated rod spans above the first mixing vane grid. De W-3 DNB conelation, see Tong. L. S. (References 5 and 6),is used where the primary DNB correlation is not applicable. De W-3 correlation, which does not take credit for mixing vane grids, is used to calculate DNBR values in the heated region below the first mixing vane gdd. In addition, the W 3 correlation is applied in the analysis of accident conditions where the system pressure is below the range of the primary correlation. For system pressures in the range of 500 to 100 psia, the W-3 correlation limit is 1.45 (Reference 7). For system pressures greater than 1000 psia, i the W-3 conelation limit is 1.30. De pressures associated with some of the steamline break statepoints are in the range of 300 to 500 psia. Using additional information, the W-3 correlation is shown to be applicable with these pressures and a correlation limit of 1.45. ] i A cold wall factor, described in WCAP-7695-L (Reference 8), is applied to the W-3 DNB correlation to conservatively account for the presence of the unheated thimble surfaces. He approach for extending the DNB technology to methodologies that already have been approved is discussed in Section 6.0 of Reference 9. He loss of flow and locked rotor events have flow rates at the time of minimum DNBR that are below the previously licensed lower limit of G = 0.9 x 10' lb/ft -hr for the WRB-2 2 correlation. DNB testing was conducted to provide data to extend the WRB-2 correlation to these lower flows. A multiplier to the WRB-2 correlation was developed based on this data Revision: 3 T Westinghouse 4.4-5 May 31,1995

l 6.4 Habitability Systerns he habitability systems are a set of individual systems that collectively provide ti,e habitability functions for the plant. De systems that make up the habitability systems are the: Nuclear island nonradioactive ventilation system (VBS) Main control room emergency habitability system (VES) Radiation monitoring system (RMS) I Plant lighting system (ELS) When a source of ac power is available, the nuclear island nonradioactive ventilation I system (VBS) provides normal and abnormal HVAC service to the main control room (MCR), technical support center (TSC), instrumentation and control rooms, de equipment rooms, battery rooms, and the nuclear island nonradioactive ventilation system equipment room. When a source of ac power is not available to operate the nuclear island nonradioactive I ventilation system, the main control room emergency habitability system (VES) is capable of providing emergency ventilation and pressurization for the main control room. The main control room emergency habitability system also provides emergency passive heat sinks for the main control room, instmmentation and control rooms, and de equipment rooms. Radiation monitoring of the main control room environment is provided by the radiation ( l monitoring system. Smoke detection is provided in the VBS system. Emergency lighting is prov!d:d by the plant lighting system. Storage capacity is provided in the main control room for rersonnel suppott equipment. 6.4.1 Safety Design Basis ne safety design bases discussed here apply only to the portion of the individual system providing the specified function. The range of applicability is discussed in subsection 6.4.4. 6.4.1.1 Main Control Room Design Basis The habitability systems provide coverage for the main control room pressure boundary as defined in subsection 6.4.2.1. 'Ihe following discussion summarizes the safety design bases with respect to the main control room: The habitability systems are capable of maintaining the main control room enviromnent I suitable for prolonged occupancy throughout the duration of the postulated accidents discussed in Chapter 15 that require protection from the release of radioactivity.

The main control room / technical support center supply air handling units are sized to provide cooling air for personnel comfon, equipment cooling, and to maintain the main control room emergency habitability passive heat sink below its initial ambient air design temperature. The temperature of the air supplied by each air handling unit is controlled by temperature sensors located in the main control room return air duct to maintain the ambient air design tempera:ure within its normal design temperature range by modulating the electric heat or chilled water cooling. The outside air is continuously monitored by smoke monitors located at the outside air intake plenum and the retum air is monitored for smoke upstream of the supply air handling units. The supply air to the main control room is continuously monitored for airbome radioactivity while the supplemental air filtration units remain in a standby operating mode. ne standby supply air handling unit and corresponding return / exhaust fans are started j automatically if one of the following conditions shuts down the operating unit: Airflow rate of the operating fan is above or below predetermined setpoints. = Retum air temperature 6 above or below predetermined setpoints. Differential pressure between the main control room and the surrounding areas and outside environment is above or below predetermined setpoints. Abnormal Plant Operation vr 9. V-10 +- f high gaseous radioactivity is detected in the main control room supply air duct and the main conTtr6Froom/ technical suppon center HVAC subsystem is operable, both supplemental air filtration units automatically stan to pressurize the main control room and technical suppon center areas to at least 1/8 inch wg using filtered makeup air. After the room is pressurized, one of the supplemental air filtration units is manually shut down. The normal outside air makeup duct and the main control room and technical support center toilet exhaust duct isolation dampers close. He main control room / technical support center supply air handling unit provides cooling with recirculation air to maintain the main control room passive heat sink below its initial ambient air design temperature and maintains the main control room and technical support center areas within their design temperatures. The supplemental air filtration subsystem pressurizes the combined volume of the main control room and technical support center concurrently with filtered outside air. A portion of the recirculation air from the main control room and technical support center is also filtered for cleanup of airborne radioactivity. The main control room / technical suppon center HVAC equipment and ductwork that form an l extension of the main control room / technical support center pressure boundary limit the overall infiltration (negative operating pressvre) and exfiltration (pesitive operating pressure) l rates to those values shown in Table 9.4.1-1 to maintain operator doses within allowable limits. i I Revision: 9 August 9,1996 9.4 10 W Westinghouse

t ~ If ac power is unavailable for more than a shon period or if particulate or iodine radioactivity is detected in the main control room supply air duct, the plant safety and monitoring system automatically isolates the main control room from the normal ventilation system by closing the supply, retum, and toilet exhaust duct isolation dampers. Main control room habitability is maintained by the main control room emergency habitability system which is discussed in Section 6.4. If a high concentration of smoke is detected in the outs:de air intake, an alarm is initiated in the main control room and the main control room / technical suppon center HVAC subsystem is manually realigned to the recirculation mode by closing the outside air and toilet exhaust duct isolation dampers. The main control room and technical suppon center toilet exhaust fans are tripped upon closure of the isolation damper:. He main control room / technical support center areas are not pressurized when operating in the recirculation mode. De main centrol room / technical suppon center HVAC supply air subsystem continues to provide cooling, ventilation, and temperature control to maintain the emergency habitability passive heat sink below its initial ambient air design temperature and maintains the main control room and technical suppon center areas within their design temperatures. In the event of a fire in the main control room or technical suppon center, in response to heat from the fire or upon receipt of a smoke signal from an area smoke detector, the combination fire / smoke dampers close automatically to isolate the fire area. De subsystem continues to provide ventilation / cooling to the unaffected area and maintains the unaffected areas at a ( slightly positive pressure. He main control room / technical suppon center HVAC subsystem can be manually realigned to the once-through ventilation mode to supply 100 percent outside air to the unaffected area. Realignment to the once-through ventilation mode minimizes the potential for migration of smoke or hot gas from the fire area to the unaffected area. Smoke and hot gases can be removed from the affected area by reopening the closed combination fire / smoke damper (s) during the once-through ventilation mode. In the once-through ventilation mode, the outside air intake damper to the air handling unit mixing plenum opens and the retum air damper to the air handNg unit closes to provide 100 percent outside air to the supply air handling unit. In this mode, the subsystem exhaust air isolation damper opens 1 to exhaust the return air directly to the turbine building vent. Power is supplied to the main control room / technical suppon center HVAC subsystem by the plant ac electrical system. In the event of a loss of the plant ac electrical system, the main control room / technical suppon center ventilation subsystem is automatically transferred to the onsite standby diesel generators. 9.4.1.2.3.2 Class IE Electrical Room HVAC Subsystem De Class IE electrical room HVAC equipment that serves electrical division A and C l equipment is described in this section. He operation of the Class IE electrical room HVAC equipment that serves electrical division B and D is similar. ( Revisian: 9 y Wesdnghouse 9.4 11 Augwt 9,1996

4 h Item 7 j The AP600 service water system (SWS) and circulating water system (CWS) are nonsafety-related l systems. The SWS utilizes freshwater in its design. The CWS is a site specific design. He SWS includes automatic self bacitwashing strainers and will be monitored for chlorine residual. In addition, instrumentation is provided in the SWS and the CWS to monitor system flow rate, pump discharge pressure; and heat exchanger inlet and outlet temperatures. He CWS also includes instrumentation to monitor condenser differential pressure. These instruments have readouts and alarms in the control room and are used to determine system performance at any given time and can, by trending, also be used to establish periodic maintenance plans to preclude loss of system functionality. Also, the SWS i is designed with redundant pumps, heat exchangers and cooling tower cells to avoid plant shutdowns caused by a single component failure.

The radiologically controlled area ventilation system consists of the following subsystems: Auxiliary / annex building ventilation subsystem = Fuel handling area ventilation subsystem = Radiation chemistry laboratory ventilation subsystem a The defense in depth portion of the system is shown in Figure 9.4.3-1. 1 9.4.3.2,1 General Description 9.4.3.2.1.1 Auxiliary / Annex Building Ventilation Subsystem l 1 ne auxiliary / annex building ventilation subsystem serves radiologically controlled equipment, l piping and valve rooms, adjacent access and staging areas, and the radiation chemistry laboratory ventilation subsystem. The auxiliary / annex building ventilation subsystem consists of two 50 percent capacity supply air handling units, a ducted supply and exha.ust air system, isolation dampers, diffusers and registers, exhaust fans, automatic controls and accessories. The supply air handling units are located in the south air handling equipment room of the l annex building at elevation 158'-0". The units discharge into a ducted supply distribution system which is routed through the radiologically controlled areas of the auxiliary and annex buildings.

subsystem are aligned to one zone. The other zone includes primarily radwaste equipment rooms, pipe chases, and adjacent access corridors located in the auxiliary building. A' radiation monitor is located in the exhaust air duct from each zone. The exhaust air fans are located in the upper radiologically controlled area ventilation system equipment room at elevation 145'.9" of the auxiliary building. The exhaust air ductwork is routed to minimize the spread of airbome contamination by directing the supply airflow from the low radiation access areas into the radioactive equipment and piping rooms with a greater potential for airborne radioactivity. Additionally, the exhaust air ductwork is connected to the radioactive waste drain system (WRS) sump to maintain the sump atmosphere at a negative air pressure to prevent the exfiltration of potentially contaminated air into the surrounding area. The exhaust air ductwork is connected to the radwaste effluent holdup tanks to prevent the potential buildup of airborne radioactivity or hydrogen gas within these tanks. The exhaust fans discharge the exhaust air into the plant vent for monitoring of offsite airborne radiological releases. The ventilation airflow dilutes potential airborne con ation to maintain the concentration at the site boundary within 10 CFR 20 (Reference 2 allowable effluent concentration limits and the intemal room airbome concentrations withm 10 GR occupational derived air concentration (DAC) limits during normal plant operation.' " Unit coolers are located in the normal residual heat removal system (RNS) and chemical and volume contiol system (CVS) pump rooms because they have significant cooling loads on an intermittent basis when large equipment is operating. Each unit cooler is sized to accommodate 100 percent of its corresponding pump cooling load. The unit coolers are provided with chilled water from redundant trains of the central chilled water system (VWS) low capacity subsystem. De normal residual heat removal pump room unit coolers have two cooling coils per unit cooler so that chilled water supplied by either train A or train B alone can support concurrent operation of both normal residual heat removal system pumps. The two chemical and volume control makeup pump room unit coolers are connected to redundant trains of the chilled water system; however, operation of either the train A or train B unit cooler alone maintains the common makeup pump room temperature conditions and supports operation of either makeup pump. Heating coils are located in the supply air ducts serving plant areas that require supplemental heating during periods of cold outside air temperature conditions. Electric unit heaters provide supplemental heating in the middle annulus. ne upper annulus is separated from the middle annulus area of the auxiliary building by a concrete floor section and flexible seals that connects the containment steel shell to the shield building. De annulus seal provides a passive barrier during normal plant operation or when the auxiliary building is isolated, preventing the exfiltration of t.nmonitored releases from the middle annulus to the environment.

The supply air handling units are located in the south air handling equipment mm of the annex building at elevation 158'-0". He supply air handling units are connected to a common air intake plenum, located at the south er.d of the fan room, and discharr,e the supply air towards the east containment recirculation cooling system (VCS) recirculanon unit to distribute the purge air within the containment. Refer to subsection 9.4.6 for a description of the containment recirculation cooling system. ne exhaust air filtration units are located within the radiologically controlled area of the annex building at elevation 135'-3" and 146'-3". The filtration units are connected to a ducted system with isolation dampers to provide HEPA filtration and charcoal adsorption of exhaust air from the containment, fuel handling area, auxiliary and annex buildings. A gaseous radiation monitor is located downstream of the exhaust air filtration units in the common ductwork to provide an alarm if abnormal gaseous releases are detected.

e inboard and outboard branch connection with 16 inch diameter containment isolation valves that are opened when the containment air filtration system is connected to the containment. The ends of the 36 inch containment penetrations are capped for possible future addition of a high volume purge system. In the event of a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) while the containment air filtration system is aligned to containment, there will not be a significant release of radioactivity during closure of the 16 inch diameter supply and exhaust valves. The maximum time for valve closure is 5 seconds, based on Branch Technical Position 6-4 to Standard Review Plan 6.2.4 (Reference 23). / ~ The exhaust air containment penetrations also serve as a connection for the containment integrated leak rate test system to pressurize and depressurize the containment during integrated leak rate testing. Otherwise, the containment air filtration exhaust subsystem is not involved with the containment integrated leak rate test and is isolated from the containment during this time period. 9.4.7.2.2 Component Description i The containment air filtration system is comprised of the following components. R ese components are located in buildings on the Seismic Category I Nuclear Island and the Seismic Category II portion of the annex building.

9.4.7.2.3 System Operation j Normal Plant Operation During normal plant operation, the containment air filtration system operates on a periodic basis to purge the containtrient atmosphere as determined..y the main control room operator to reduce airborne radioactivity or to maintain the containment pressure within its normal operating range. One supply air handling unit provides outdoor air that is filtered, cooled, or heated to the containment areas above the operating floor. He airflow rate is controlled to a constant value by modulating the supply fan inlet vanes to compensate for filter loading or changes in containment pressure. The cooling coils are supplied with chilled water from the central chilled water system (VWS) to cool and/or dehumidify the outside supply air. The heating coils are supplied with hot water by the hot water heating system (VYS). Refer to subsections 9.2.7 and 9.2.10 for descriptions of the central chilled water and hot water heating systems. The temperature of the air supplied by each air handling unit is controlled by temperature ] sensors located in the supply air duct. When the supply air temperature is low, the face and bypass dampers across the supply air heating coil are modulated to heat the supply air. When the supply air temperature is high, the flow of chilled water is modulated to cool the supply air. The supply air is continuously monitored by a smoke monitor located in the common ductwork downstream of the supply air handling units, ne airflow rate through the exhaust filters is controlled to a constant value when the exhaust j filters are connected to the containment by modulating the exhaust fan inlet vanes to 1 compensate for filter loading or changes in system resistance caused by single or parallel fan operation, or changes in containment pressure. De exhaust lines from the containment include a pair of isolation dampers arranged in parallel to restrict the airflow to maintain the exhaust filter plenums at a negative air pressure when the containment is positively pressurtzed. Based on predetermmed setpoints, the operators select the appropriate damper to open. This prevents exfiltration of unfiltered air from bypassing the filters. The filtered exhaust air from the containment is discharged to the atmosphere through the plant vent by the exhaust fan. De gaseous effluents in the plant vent are monitored for radioactivity levels before the air is discharged to the environment. Refer to Section 11.5 for a description of the plant vent radiation monitor. During single subsystem operation, the standby supply and exhaust air units can be started manually by the operator if the operating train fails. Revision: 10 3 WOStingh0088 December 20,1996 9.4-46

) ~ .9. Auxiliary Systems Prior to and during plant shutdown, one or both trains of the containment air filtration system can be operated to remove airborne radioactivity prior to personnel access. During cold ambient conditions, the supply air is heated by the hot water heating system. The exhaust filter unit electric heater controls the relative humidity of the exhaust air entering the charcoal adsorber below 70 percent. When both trains are operated concurrently, the containment air filtration system provides a maximum airflow rate equivalent to approximately 0.25 air changes per hour. This airnow rate provides adequate ventilation for personnel inside containment during refueling operations. Abnormal Plant Operation The containment isolation valves in the supply and exhaust air lines automatically close when containment isolation signals are initiated by the protection and safety monitoring system or diverse actuation system. Refer to subsections 6.2.3,7.7.1.11 and 7.3 for discussions of the containment isolation system, diverse actuation system and protection and safety monitoring system. J Main control room operators can connect the containment air filtration system to the containment for cleanup of potential airborne radioactivity while the containment remains isolated if a containment high radiation signal is not present. If high airborne radioactivity or pressure differential is detected in the fuel handling area, the auxiliary and/or annex buildings, the radiologically controlled area ventilation system isolates the affected area from the outside environment and starts the containment air filtration exhaust subsy tem to maintain a slight negative pressure differential in the isolated zone (s). The airflow rate through the exhaust fan is maintained at a constant value by modulating the fan inlet vanes. An outside air makeup damper modulates to control the exhaust airflow rate through the HEPA and charcoal filters to maintain the isolated area (s) at a slightly negative pressure. The containment air filtration system is automatically isolated fmm the containment, if purging is in progress and the standby exhaust filter train does not start. If both exhaust trains are connected to the containment, one exhaust train is automatically isolated from the containment and realigned to the isolated area (s). The exhaust subsystem can be manually connected to the onsite diesel generators if there is a loss of ac power. 'Ihe containment air filtration system is not required to mitigate the consequences of a design basis fuel handling accident or a loss of coolant accident. If the exhaust air filtration units are operational and ac power is available, they may be used to support post-event recovery operations. The plant vent high range radiation detectors monitor effuents discharged into the plant vent. If smoke is detected in the common supply air duct, an alarm is initiated. 'Ihe system remains in operation unless plant operators determine that there is a need to manually shut down the supply air handling units. Fire dampers are provided for HVAC ductwork that passes through a fire barrier in order to isolate each fire zone in the event of a fire. Revision: 10 T Westinghouse 9.4-47 December 20,1996

The supply air system consists of two 50 percent capacity air handling units with a ducted air distribution system, automatic controls, and accessories. He air handling units are located in an electrical / mechanical equipment room on elevation 100'-0" on the southwest side of the building. Each unit draws 100 percent outdoor air through individual louvered outdoor air intakes. The two units discharge into a common duct distribution system which is routed through the building. Branch connections from the main duct supply air through registers into the various areas served. He exhaust air system consists of two 50 percent capacity exhaust centrifugal fans, an exhaust air duct collection system, and automatic controls and accessories. He airflow rates are balanced to maintain a constant exhaust design air flow through the fans. The exhaust fans are located in an equipment room on Elevation 100'-0" in the northwest corner of the radwaste building. The exhaust fans discharge to a common duct which is rotaed to the plant vent. A radiation monitor records activity in the discharge duct and activates an alarm in the main control room when excess activity in the effluent discharge is detected. De radiation monitoring system is described in Section 11.5. The exhaust air collection duct inside the radwaste building exhausts air from areas and rooms where low levels of airborne contamination may be present.

The radwaste building supply air flow is automatically modulated to maintain a negative pressure in the building. Electric interlocks between the truck access doors and the supply fan flow controller permits the supply air to drop to 6000 cfm below the exhaust flow when any truck bay door is open. This creates a flow into the building through the open door. Differential pressure drop across the supply units filter banks is monitored, and individual alarms are actuated when any pressure drop rises to a predetermined level indicative of the need for filter replacement. To replace the filters on a supply unit, the affected supply fan and exhaust fan are stopped and isolated from the duct system by means of isolation dampers. Durmg filter replacement, the supply and exhaust systems operate at 50 percent capacity. In this mode of operation, radwaste processing operations are adjusted to obtain acceptable temperature in the radwaste building. The hot water unit heaters in the mobile systems facility are not normally required to operate to maintain the general building temperature. These heaters operate, in response to local thermostat control, to temper air entering the building when a truck access door is opened. The hot water unit heater in the electrical / mechanical room operates in response to local thermostat control to maintain the required minimum temperature.

o. g'., ' ia 2 RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS, CON 1NTENTS, AND DISCUSSION ITEN1S CONCERNING THE WESTINGHOUSE AP600 ADVERSE SYSTEN1S INTERACTION REPORT The Adverse Systems Interactions repon does a reasonably good job in describing interactions between single components and/or systems in the AP600. However, there appears to be relatively little consideration of " integral" ef fects: for instance, Ole cumulative impact of operating several non-safety systems for a period after which the passive systems might be required to operate. The staff recognizes that the actual plant response to a transient or accident may depend upon operator (or automatic) actuation of the " defense-in-depth" (DID) systems. The staff is concerned, however, that the integral-systems impact of operating several DID systems, either in parallel or serially, may af fect j the plant's thermal-hydraulic state sufficiently to compmmise the ability of the passive systems to "take over" should they be required at a later time, in the event that an accident or transient worsens. or if some or all of the DID systems were to fail or be shut off. Has Westinghouse evaluated these types of integral and time-dependent effects? Overview Comments 1. Section 2.2.10 discusses interactions between the normal residual heat removal system (RNS) and two passive systems - the core makeup tank (Chit) and the in-containment refueling water storage tank (IRWST). The possibility of RNS flow delaying CMT drainage is discussed and stated to be beneficial because it could prevent unnecessary actuation of the stage 4 ADS valves. However, there appears to be some " scenario-specific" interactions which are not obviously beneficial. If, for instance, during a small break LOCA, the RCS pressure were to holdup in the range of the RNS pump shutolf head (after actuation of ADS-l.2, and 3), the possibility of the RNS holding the CMT check valves closed (or at least inhibiting draining) while minimal injection llow is occurnng could result in greater than expected RCS inventory depletion before ADS 4 actuates. In a direct vessel injection (DVI) DEG line break, one injection path is open to contairunent, and it would appear that RNS injection into the intact DVI line would be shut off by the RCS pressure on that side, but on the broken side, the RNS pumps would provide flow, which would be dumped into the sump through the break. This has the dual effect of shutting off the CMT discharge check valves and depleting IRWST inventory. The intact-side CMT would have to drain to actuate the founh stage ADS, which would require significant inventory loss dirough the break. Funhermore, to postulate a possible " worst case" sequence, suppose die t%nps were secured or failed just as the RCS reached a pressure at which the pumps would nomially stan to inject. In this scenario, a substantial amount of IRWST water has been dumped into the sump, reducing the injection head, and the system must still depressurize fmm around 200 psi down to less that 10 psi (relative to the containment) to allow IRWST injection. The transition to sump injecuan (lower head) would be relatively early, with greater decay heat than assumed on the SSAR analysis. In addition, not ordy would the RNS rapidly deplete the IRWST inventory during a DVI DEG break, but it also appears that it could continue to operate drawing suction flow from the recirculation sump as the net positive suction head shifted from the IRWST to the recirculation sump. Could this conceivably result in a flow by-pass of the core i via the following path. Specifically, RNS suction would take suction on the contairunent recirculation sump and pump it to the two DVI lines: the broken DVI line would spill water back to the sump; the intact DVI line would retum some water to the reactor vessel downcomer l but a percentage of this injection flow would be shon-circuited out the vessel side of the broken I DVI line. No passive sump recirculation would be expected because of the RNS discharge pressure would be holding the sump recirculation check valves closed.

o ... - i. 3 Westinghouse should determine if the above scenarios need to be considered and/or analyzed. The analyses should ascertain: (a) if enough inventory could be lost to uncover the core: (b) the possibility of flow by-pass of the core if RNS continued to operate with a DVI DEG break: (c) the worst case effect of the reduction in IRWST injection head ami early transition to sump injection with higher decay heat levels if RNS flow were stoppd by an operator after a large quantity of water from the IRWST has been pumped by the RNS into the recirculation sump. It might benefit the staff if more details were provided on the specific initiation of P.NS a; a bw head injection, active, defense-in-depth system for LOCAs. Tin procedures prrmded in the ERGS do not seem to clarify these questions. When exactly would operators be instructed to align RNS to inject? When would the a. operators be expected to start the pumps (i.e., after an "S" signal or other specific time in the event)? When, would the operators be expected to secure the pumps? b. What happens if the operators make an error in aligning, stopping, or staning the RNS? The staff would also like more details on what analysis has been done related to the above described scenarios. For example, are there potential intermediate break sizes for which the RNS pumps cannot inject sufficient flow to the RCS, but can block enough CMT flow to create a problera? Were these scenarios considered in the PRA?

Response

1 This comment postulates several scenarios regarding the interaction of the RNS and the passive l injection sources (CMTs and IRWST). This response will address each one individually as follows: 1 "If,for instance, during a small break LOCA. the RCS pressure were to holdup in the range of the RNS pump shutoff head...the possibility of the RNS holding the CSIT check valves closed (or l at least inhibiting draining) while minimal injection flow is occurring could result in greater than expected RCS inventory depletion before ADS-4 actuates." The phenomenon as discussed above cannot occur. The RNS can only prevent the CMTs from draining if it provides sufficient injection flow via the shared direct vessel injection (DVI) line, ) to increase the pressum in the discharge of the CMT line to prevent gravity draining of the CMT, This can only occur if the flow rate in the DVI line due to the RNS is greater than the flow rate that would occur if only the CMTs were draining. If, as postulated above, the RCS pressure held up near the shutoff head of the RNS, then the RNS pumps would inject very little l (or not at all). In this case, the CMTs would drain as designed, since they are at RCS pressure l (due to the cold leg balance line). See the attached Figure 1. i l "In a DVI DEG line break...RNS injection...has the dual effect of shutting off the ChfT check l valves and depleting IRWST inventory." I In such a break, the RNS, if operating, would spill the IRWST to the containment sump. This will be bounded by the SSAR long-temi cooling analysis scheduled for submittal next year. However, the ASI of stopping of the CMT injection at an RNS flow rate less than CMT design flow will cannot occur as discussed above. Funhermore, the RNS would not inject a significant i amount in this scenario due to the interconnected RNS system that would preferentially feed the spilling DVI line.

1 3 The ERGS provide the guidance for when the operator is instructed to align the RNS. a. (Upon decreasing CMT level). This can be added to the ASI Report for completeness. If the operators are able to detennine that a broken DVI line had occurred (by noticing that one CMT had drained while the other was relatively full, the IRWST injection with RCS pressures ingh, and RNS injection with the RCS pressure above the shutoff head of the pumps). For these cases, the operators could decide to stop the RNS pumps. However, the SSAR analyses will conservatively bound RNS operation that could adversely effect the safety of the plant (i.e. RNS is not credited in design basis LOCAs, and is considered in the LTC analysis where RNS operation can adversely impact the drairdng of the IRWST. b. No additional adverse interactions other than those discussed above can result from operation of the RNS post-accident. 2. The repon contains no analyses, just descriptive material. There are several mentions of " sensitivity analyses." but no references to where the results might be found (except where they've been incorporated into the SSAR). There is no indication of what the sensitivity analyses have (or have not) considered as relevant " sensitivities."

Response

This is a general comment which cannot be addressed without a more specific example. 3. Injection of saturated water due to energy inpu: to IRWST is mentioned several times, as is the beneficial (" quenching") effect of injecting subcooled water. There are a number of interactions that can cause the IRWST water to become saturated prior to injection to the RCS. Westinghouse should confirm that in the Chapter 6/15 analyses, that saturated conditions are assumed in the IRWST to minimize the beneficial effect of subcooled injection or explain why the assumption is not necessary.

Response

The range of initial IRWST temperatures assumed in the design basis safety analyses is: 50'F < T < 120 F. Of all the Chapters 6 and 15 analyses, IRWST injection only occurs for a LOCA. For the LOCA analyses, the maximum initial IRWST temperature (120'F) is assumed for conservatism. During the course of a LOCA, the IRWST is heated up by PRHR heat transfer and ADS injection. Test data shows that there is significant temperature stratification in the IRWST, such that the portion of the IRWST below the PRHR tubes temains subcooled for an extended length of time. This phenomenon is modeled by the LOCA analysis codes (),ECobra/ Trac and NOTRUMP) for the IRWST injection in the small and large break LOCA analyses of Chapter 15.6. Saturated water injection occurs during long-term cooling following a LOCA event and is modeled in the Chapter 15.6 long term cooling analysis as appropriate. Srecific Comments and Ouestions fnim Detailed Review l 4. The discussion on fan coolers (pp. 217 18) appears to be focused on an extreme situation 1 without regard for other potential adverse conditions. For example: recent concems were raised regarding operating PWRs via Westinghouse's Nuclear Safety Advisory Letter on contairunent fan coolers. Are there any high heat load conditions (such as during DBA or Severe Accidents) for the AP600 in widch the cooling water system supplying non-safety-related fan coolers i t

b e (Chilled Water) might be subject to water hammer or other potentials for containment bypass? Could operation of the fan coolers with chilled water isolated by a containment isolation signal result in overpressurization of the chilled water line or flashing / water hammers if the heated chilled water lines from the fan coolers were suddenly unisolated? The Chapter 9 SSAR description of the fan coolers state that they have two speed motors. The high speed is used fm nomial conditions and the low speed is used during high containment air density conditions - such as those that might be present during DBA or severe accidents. How is fan speed controlled during accident conditions. Since this is a non-safety related function, how is operation of the fans in fast speed prevented in a high steam environment. Does the fan control circuitry automatically shift to low speed in accident conditions? Are there interlocks to prevent operators from manually shifting to high speed when conditions may be inappropriate in containment. Is there any potential for the fans to catastrophically fail if operated at high speed in a dense steam envirotunent thereby creating a possible adverse system interaction which could damage the chill water cooling coils (Containment bypass scenario)? The emergency response guidelines (ERGS) for reactor trip or safety injection, AE-0, step 22. does not specify at what speed the fans should be operating under safety injection conditions.

Response

Westinghouse is currently reviewing the design and operation of the AP600 fan coolers and chilled water system with regard to the recent concems raised about fan coolers for operating plants. It is expected that this review will conclude that the AP600 fan coolers are not susceptible to damaging water hammer or other potentials for contaimnent bypass. The AP600 fan cooler / chilled water system is not required to function to remove heat from the containment following any DBA or Severe Accident. In addition, the AP600 fan coolers and associated chilled water piping and isolation valves are designed for 320 F and 200 psig, and therefore cannot be subjected to overpressure /ovenemperature conditions as a result of elevated pressure and temperature conditions expected inside the containment. When this review is completed. Westinghouse will provide additional discussion on this fan cooler concem, as it applies to the AP600 design, including the operauon of the fan cooler fans and emergency response guidelines. i 5. The discussion in item 2.2.1 (p. 2-7) refers to events after actuation of an "S" signal. However. there are safety system actuations that occur without immediate generation of an "S" signal--such as CMT actuation due to low pressurizer level. Does this discussion apply to that possibility as well?

Response

Actuation of the CMTs on low pressuriier level can occur prior to an "S" signal. The discussion presented in 2.2.1 would apply regardless. 6. At the bottom of p. 2-8. Westinghouse states that operation of two RCPs in the loop opposite the PRHR heat exchanger could result in reverse flow through die PRHR heat exchanger and possible degrade its effectiveness. Is this concem also possible with just one RCP operating in the opposite loop from the PRHR HX? Are there any contml interkicks that prevent this condition? The necessity of avoiding this situation does not appear to be called out in the

j 7 AP600 ERGS (See step 10 of AES-0.1 for instance). Are there any common-cause failures j (other than loss of an electrical bus, which has been precluded) that could cause the two PRHR side RCPs to trip and the other two pumps to stay on* i

Response

No, this concem only applies to two pumps in the opposite SG. There are no control interlocks { that address this. In the steps that specify the RCPs to be restarted,it states to start pump 1 A and IB with a note that these pumps should be mn to provide pressurizer spray The potential ASI with PRHR is mentioned in the revised ERG background document (to be provided by the end of the year) { under the Knowledge section for these steps. No other common-cause failures that would result in this scenario were identified. The AP600 Technical Specifications (3.5.4 and 3.5.5) address this issue, by requiring at least one i pump in loop one to be operating. This prevents the operators from operating in this way at lower modes. 7. On p. 2-9, the pressurizer heaters are stated to be assumed to trip on "S" signal actuation. Is this a safety-related function? Similarly, what about the isolatien valve actuations in the letdawn i system? Are all actuations initiated by the PLS non-safety related? What is the impact of a loss of instrument ac power that would preclude the PLS from actuating these isolation functions? Another function not specifically indicated as being safety-related or non-safety-related is the SFW isolation on low RCS CL temperature (p 2-15). Please confinn which applies. Resp <mse: As discussed in Section 2.2.13, the pressurizer heater block on a CMT actuation signal is performed by the PLS and is credited in the SSAR accident analysis. This is a safety-related function accomplished with nonsafety-related components (breakers for the pressurizer heaters). Regarding letdown isolation, there are both safety-related and nonsafety-related isolation of the letdown line. - As the AP600 letdown line is a containment isolation line, it closes on an S signal (PMS) as well as PLS isolation on pressurizer level. In addition, the letdown line and purification line are isolated on low pressurizer water level by the PMS. The following table provides the complete list of PMS and PLS isolation functions associated with pmssurizer level. A version of this table could be included in the ASI report. i

On p. 2-10 is there any way that operation of the CVS purification loop could cause a thennally stratified single phase flow, which could result in cyclical thermally-induced fatigue stresses? Resp <mse: As discussed in SSAR section 3.9. thermal stratification has been evaluated for the AP6(X). The CVS purification line that connects to the PRHR line that connects to the steam generator has been evaluated and found to be insusceptible to thermal stratification. This analysis is currently under review by the NRC. 9. On p. 213, interactions due to hydrogen evolution are not considered imponant due to the concentration and solubility of the gas at RCS operating pressure. What happens when the system is cooled and depressurized. especially when proceeding to either hot or cold shutdown?

s 9 O is there any way for sufficient hydrogen to get into the PRHR HX to degrade the natural circulation driving force? )

Response

The operating concentration of hydrogen in the RCS is in the range of 25 to 50 cc/Kg. This corresponds to the saturation level of hydrogen in the RCS at pressures tcween ~25 to 50 psia. This means that hydn> gen out-gassing would not occur at RCS pressure above ~50 psia. Prior to transition to hot or cold shutdown, the RCS hydrogen concentration is reduced to less than 5 cc/Kg. Therefore. RCS out-gassing could not occur until the RCS is near atmospheric conditions. Per the Technical Specifications PRHR operation is not required once the RCS is depressurized. The final stage of RCS depressurization during shutdown occurs after the RCPs are tripped off. Until then, the RCS pressure is maintained at or above 300 psia. Therefore, at the relatively low hydrogen concentrations in the RCS (5 - 50 cc/Kg), out-gassing that could jeopardize PRHR operation at shutdown is not a concem.

10. Have any events been identified in which the operation of the stanup feedwater system could delay the initiation of the PRHR system in such a way as to be detrimental to safety (e.g., if the SFW system ran for a while and then failed)?

Response

No. As discussed in the report, if the SFW pumps delayed PRHR operation, and then subsequently stopped, PRHR would be actuated on low SG level and low SFW tlow. This would occur later in time, with lower decay heat. This case is bounded by the case where no SFW llow actuates, and PRHR is actuated earlier with higher decay heat levels. II. For the Plant Control System (Section 2.2.13), what impact does the loss of offsite power followed by starting and sequential loading of these systems on the non-safety diesels have on system interactions?

Response

None. As discussed in this repon, nonsafety-related systems are assumed to operate following an accident if their operation can be shown to be detrimental to plant safety. Therefore, for a loss of offsite power coincident with an accident, if operation of a nonsafety system was shown to be detnmental, then it is assumed in the SSAR Chapter 15 analysis. 12, Isolation of We RCDT to prevent overpressurization (p. 2-26) is indicated to be non-safety-related. What are the implications of failure to accomplish this isolation? Is a tank rupture credible? If so, what potential systems interactions might occur? Resp (mse: If RCDT isolation was not accomplished, then the tank could be ruptured, and a small amount of ADS tlow could be diverted from the IRWST to the sump. Due to the small I" line that connects the ADS header to the RCDT, the amount of bypass would be insignificant. In addition, any steam flow that bypassed the sparger would condense and collect in the contaisunent. Since the RCDT is located at the bottom of containment, and will flood anyway due to the LOCA, the effect is negligible.

13. Component cooling water (CCS) is discussed in Section 2.2.17. This system has direct interfaces with the RCS. Westinghouse should consider a discussion of the system's capability of withstanding pressurization to RCS pressure as a result of a leak from the RCS into the CCS and how the potential for an intersystem LOCA is mitigated.

Response

Yes. A discussion of this issue will be added to Section 2.2.17.

14. Is there any potential for interactions between the spent fuel pool cooling system (Section 2.2.19) and the RNS that could impact IRWST inventory?

Response

As discussed in the repon, there are several interactions between the RNS and IRWST, and the SFS and IRWST, but there are no interactions between the SFS and the RNS that could affect IRWST water level.

15. CMT/ accumulator interactions are discussed in Section 2.3.1.1. Nitrogen from the accumulators is claimed to have no impact on CMT operation. This may not be completely accurate if there is some means by which the CMTs could refill late in an event (as observed in the OSU tests -

although this has been regarded as resulting from a scaling distortion in the facility). Also, some ERG instructions pennit the operator to isolate the accumulator. Is there any way that the operator could interfere with accumulator injection by incorrectly shutting the isolation MOV while the accumulator still has substantial water in it? Westinghouse should consider addressing CMT tefill in Section 2.3.1.9 on CMT/RCS interactions as well.

Response

Section 2.3.1.1 does not state that accumulator nitmgen has no impact on CMT operation. The statement is, "The potentially adverse interaction between the accumulator nitrogen and the CMT is insignificant" This is because nitrogen is not discharged until the accumulators are almost fully depressurized, at a pressure of less than ~ 100 psig. Any potential nitrogen discharge will not be imponant to CMT operation because the CMT will have already discharged most of its injection volume before the accumulators empty. Therefore, any potentially adverse interaction on CMT operation is too late to be significant to CMT operation. There are no significant adverse interactions expected if the CMTs refill late in an event since the (RWST provides injection flow at that time, once the RCS is depressurized. Therefore, mtrogen impact on CMT operation is not expected to cause any significant adverse interactions for the plant. The accumulator discharge isolation valves are kept in a similar condition to those for current plants, with the discharge motor-operated valve open and the breaker racked out once specified plant conditions are established during plant stanup (nonnally above 1000 psig in the reactor coolant system and continuing the stanup process). This increases the reliability of accumulator injection following an event by preventing the valves from inadvenently closing. i l In addition, the actuation circuity for the accumulator discharge isolation valves has a confirmatory open signal in the event that the circuit breakers for the valves are installed for any 1

a t I1 reason during plant operation. The confirmatory open signal prevents the operator from closing the discharge isolation valves until the actuation signal is removed. The actuation signal is a safety injection signal and the safety injection signal can only be cleared following an event once the Si termination criteria in ERGS /EOPs, which require stable plant conditions following.ae event, are satisfied. Therefore, the actuation circuitry design precludes the operator from incorrectly interfering with accumulator injection by shutting the discharge isolation valve when the accumulator has substantial water in it, following an event where safety injection is required. Finally, the Emergency Response Guidelines provide extremely limited cases where the operator is permitted to isolate the accumulators to prevent interfering with accumulator injection. The Emergency Response Guidelines have been revised so that the only time operators are directed to close the accumulator bischarge isolation valves is during a small LOCA when makeup from the nonsafety-related chemical and volume control system is available and the operators are using the post-LOCA cooldown and depressurization procedure.

16. The discussion of ChfT/lRWST interactions in Section 2.3.1.2 appears to be focused on.

SBLOCAs, in claiming that minimal interactions occur between these two ECC systems. What about LBLOCAs, where the ADS is not required to depressurize the plant, and IRWST injection may begin (based on differential pressure) while the CMTs have considerable inventory?

Response

Section 2.3.1.2 states that "For most LOCA events, there is not a significant amount of injection overlap between these two injection sources. Flow rates from these sources are relatively low, and interactions between these two sources are not considered significant." This statement was made in the report recognizing that some breaks, such as larger LOCAs, can result in a period of time with injection overlap between these two sources, due to the plant response to the event (such as the specific case described above). However, there are no significant adverse interactions that occur for those LOCA events where there may be parallel injection operation of the ChfTs and the IRWST. i In addition, the amo mt of inventory in the ChfTs at the time of parallel injection can vary with the specific LOCA event. By design, the Chits will not have a " considerable inventory" when IRWST injection begins, even for larger LOCAs. This is because of specific actuation interlocks for the IRWST injection squib discharge isolation valves. For a large break LOCA, the plant depressurizes quickly with the accumulators providing a large initial injection flow to provide vessel refill and core reflooding. The Ch1Ts then provide subsequent injection flow until sometime later in the event, when they reach the Low-2 ChfT level and an automatic actuation signal is generated to open the founh stage ADS valves and the IRWST injects as the next injection source. The IRWST cannot provide injection until the ChfTs are nearly empty because the IRWST discharge isolation valves are actuated on the same signal that actuates the 4th stage ADS signal -- a Low 2 ChfT level. l

i 12 The difference in IRWST injection timing for a larger LOCA event is that as soon as the 4th Stage ADS and IRWST actuation signal is generated. the IRWST may begin to inject for this event, in parallel with the final stage of ADS depressurization provided by the 4th Stage valves. By this time in the event, the first three ADS stages will have already sequenced, but the plant depressurization has already occurred due to leakage and venting out the break. Therefore, IRWST injection initiates somewhat earlier than for smaller LOCAs which would not have fully depressurized the RCS by the time the ADS fourth stage actuation signal is generated. ) Therefore, for smaller LOCAs, some additional ADS depressurization would have to occur i before the IRWST would begin to inject. This would further reduce the CMT level when 3 parallel CMT and IRWST injection occurs. For this larger LOCA event, the relatively small remaining volumes of the CMTs below the Low-2 CMT level setpoint will inject through an 8-inch injection line by gravity flow into the direct vessel injection lines. This is in parallel with IRWST injection into the same lines, through parallel 6-inch injection lines. At this time, the IRWST level (pressure compensated by I containment pressure) is expected to be at a higher physical elevation than the CMT levels (pressure compensated by RCS piessure). Combined injection flow from both sources in parallel is expected and desired. These two parallel injection flow paths are complementary, wo King together to ensure injection flow is maintained in parallel with steam venting from the ADS and j out the break. The specific injection flow contribution from each injection source is not as j important as maintaining the total required injection flow and core cooling, and preventing core uncovery. i For LOCA events, including larger LOCAs, the parallel injection of the CMT and IRWST { increases the reliability of injection and does not present aa adverse interaction. This parallel injection llow was designed into the AP600 through the use of the direct injection lines for all three safety-related injection sources.

17. The discussion on CMT/PRHR interactions does not take into account the possible role of the PRHR in system-wide interactions, such as those observed in OSU testing.

I l

Response

The system-wide CMT / PRHR interactions were considered in development of Section 2.3.1.4. CMT recirculation operation cools the RCS and, therefore, impacts PRHR HX effectiveness smce I the PRHR heat removal capability will decrease with lowering RCS temperatures as the temperature difference between the RCS and IRWST decreases. When the CMT recirculation and associated RCS cooling slows, the RCS can heat up somewhat because PRHR HX may not be able to match decay heat at lower RCS temperatures. The RCS then subsequently heats up slightly to a temperature where the PRHR can match the core decay heat rate. l 18. Accumulator /IRWST interactions are discussed in Section 2.3.2.1. The implication that these two systems have little potential for interaction does not take into account " cascading" effects, i.e., depending on break size and location, accumulator injection could interfere with CMT injec-tion, delaying ADS-4 actuation and opening of the IRWST isolation valves. This " indirect" effect is also not discussed in Section 2.3.2.7, on accumulator /RCS interactions.

Response

A difference in break size and location can result in changes in the specific reponse of the passive core cooling system components and the timing and duration of thei: varions injection flows. Therefore, there can be some indirect effects on IRWST operation due to varbtions in accumulator injection. As stated in Section 2.3.2.1, "..there are no intervals of significans injection overlap between these two components so that Aring a common injection line does not result in any significant interactions." This statement is intended to imply that for the range of events observed and analyzed in the system design, which includes a range of break sizes and locations, that overall there were no significant adverse interactions that prevented these two passive components from successfully providing core cooling and keeping the core covered during these events.

19. Accumulators are stated not to have significant interactions with the steam generators (Section 2.3.2.5). Are there any scenarios in which flow oscillations could occur, due to maintenance of natural circulation flow through the steam generator, at pressures low enough to have accumu-lator injection? If so, what is the potential for interaction between the two systems?

i

Response

The accumulators do not significantly or directly impact the SGS from the two perspectives cortsidered in the report (integrity of the SGS boundary and SGS heat removal). No significant adverse interactions have been identified. From the per.pective of SGS integrity, the accumulator will not have any adverse systems interactions. For some r. vents where PRHR cooling can result in a reduction in the RCS pressure below the accumulator static gas pressure, a small amount of accumulator injection can occur. However, this injection is provided through the direct vessel injection lines and into the reactor vessel cold leg downcomer plenum, where it is mixed with the flow from the four RCS cold legs. The impact of the this relatively small accumulator injection flow depends on the flow conditions in the core at the time of discharge, bu' it only provides indirect effects on the SGS conditions and does not have any significant adverse interactions with the SGS. Therefore, no significant adverse interactions are identified in Section 2.3.2.5. At no time does nitrogen inject during such events. This small amount of relatively cool water added to the reactor coolant system from the accumulator can have some oscillatory effect on RCS natural circulation flow conditions, similar to transient effects resulting from other system changes such as varying the SGS feedwater addition rate or steam discharge rate. When these kinds of changes occur under natural circulation flow conditions, the natural circulation flow will vary in proportion to the magnitude of the change and then re-establish a new equilibrium natural circulation flow and heat removal conditions via either the SGS or the PRHR. In order to inject a large volume from the accumulators, the RCS pressure would have to decrease sufficiently low that the resulting RCS voiding would uncouple the steam generators

( 14 from heat removal and core cooling. This amount of voiding in the RCS is not expected without a primary system break, which would prevent any significant adverse interactions between the i accumulators and steam generators. i Also see the response to question 36.

20. Section 2.3.3.1. on IRWST/contaitunent interactions, does not address the late-phase oscillations observed in OSU testing, and the possible impact of those oscillations on sump injection. In addition, the OSU tests indicated the possibility of flow from the sump back into the IRWST. It would seem appropriate for Westinghouse to address these interactions, and show that adverse effects are not expected.

Response

i These effects are discussed in the OSU Test Analysis Repon. It was concluded that long-tenn cooling is not adversely affected'by these oscillations or by the possibility of flow fmm the sump back into the IRWST. Therefore, there are no additional adverse interactions between these components related to these two concems. See the response to question 36.

21. Section 2.3.3.2, on IRWST/PRHR interactions, appears to be inconsistent with the interaction that is discussed in the immediately previous section of the repon, i.e., spurious opening of the recirculation isolation valves. In this case, such an event would deprive the PRHR ofits cooling water, creating a potential adverse interaction. In addition, at the end of the section.

Westinghouse states that the difference in IRWST temperature has "no significant effect" on gravity injection. However, experimental data indicate that a hot IRWST drains more rapidly.

Response

The impact of containment recin'ulation on the PRHR is discussed in Section 2.3.4.1 (Containment Recirculation - Passive Residual Heat Removal Heat Exchanger) and is not addressed in Section 2.3.3.2. Section 2.3.4.1 should include the following paragraph to address the potential interactions of spurious containment recirculation actuation on the PRHR heat exchanger. This additional paragraph essentially repeats the information provided in the last paragraph in Section 2.3.3.1 that discusses the spurious opening of the containment recirculation valves in relation to IRWST and containment recirculation interactions. "M adverse interaction can occur due to spurious opening of the containment recirculation isolation valves. This occurs if the line with the motor-operated valve and explosive valve is opened and the IRWST starts to gravity drain to containment, causing floodup of contairunent. This event does not result in any plant transient, but it does have some adverse effects if the IRWST is allowed to drain significantly. The spurious opening of these valves is prevented by I the instrumentation and control design. The response to spurious opening of the contairmient i recirculation isolation valves is to confinn that the actuation is spurious and then to take operator actions to close the motor-operated valve. This is not a significant interaction since it does not cause a plant transient and there is sufficient time, alarms, and indications to allow the operators to diagnose the problem and take the corrective actions required. In addition, if the

) 15 ~ motor-operated isolation valve spuriously opened to initiate draining, it is expected that it would again function properly to close and terminate the IRWST 110w." Section 2.3.3.2 discusses interactions between the IRWST and the PRHR heat exchanger and, therefore, the last pan of this question related to the PRHR impact on IRWST temperature is included in this section. It is recognized that the PRHR heating of the IRWST water increases the water temperature, which does affect the gravity injection flow rate. However, the expected range of water temperature variations is not expected to provide any significant adverse systems interactions on the gravity injection capability. 1 The last sentence in the question is not clear in stating that the " experimental data indicate that a hot IRWST drains more rapidly" than when the IRWST water is cold. Given all other identical conditions, this is not expected to be the case. For a system with the same injection line piping flow resistance, system pressure, and IRWST overpressure, the gravity injection elevation head for cold water is larger than for warm water and, therefore, the gravity injection flow is greater. If the experimental data indicates that the hot IRWST drains more rapidly, then different plant conditions must exist such that some other i parameter (s) than only the injection water temperature must have been different.

22. Section 2.3.3.4 (IRWST/PCCS) does not discuss the effect that containment pressure has on IRWST actuation. Since IRWST injection is a function of the difference between RCS and contairunent pressure, elevated containment pressure will affect the timing of inception of flow from the IRWST to the RCS. A similar comment applies to Section 2.3.4.3 (containment recirc/PCCS), since containment backpressure will have an impact on timing of IRWST injection and, subsequently, sump injection.

Response

The contairunent pressure does affect the timing for the actuation of both IRWST gravity injection and containment gravity recirculation since it affects both the gravity injection overpressures and RCS venting backpressures. However, these interactions were implicitly considered in the repon since the system design must accommodate the range of contaimnent pressures that will exist following the Chapter 15 design basis accidents. As stated in the repon, these design interactions have been confirmed as part of the testing and plant analyses. Therefore, no significant adverse interactions have been identified for the IRWST or containment recirculation resulting from the containment pressures maintained by the passive containment cooling following the design basis events. 23, Section 2.3.5.1, PRHR/ ADS, primarily focuses on the impact of IRWST heating on ADS behavior. Consideration should be given to discussing an indirect interaction, via the RCS, in which PRHR cooling reduces RCS temperature, affecting pressurizer inventory and thereby impxting operation of ADS 1/2/3. Another indirect interaction involves ADS-4; again, PRHR operation affects fluid conditions at ADS 4 actuation, which may be more or less imponant, depending on the scenario. 1

t 16.

Response

The end of the first paragraph in Section 2.3.5.1 specifically addresses dus interaction by stating that "PRHR HX cooling prior to ADS operation can also impact the initial RCS pressure when ADS actuates. These design interactions have been confimied as part of the testing and plant analyses." Therefore, no significant adverse interactions have been identified for the ADS (both Stages 1/2/3 in the pressurizer and Stage 4 in the hot legs) resulting from the RCS pressures established by the PRHR following the design basis events and prior to ADS actuation.

24. In Section 2.3.5.2, Westinghouse states there are no direct interactions between the PRHR and the PCCS. In the case of long term cooling using PRHR, is there a possibility that PCCS operation is needed to keep sufficient water in the IRWST (via condensation return) to allow the PRHR HX to continue to operate? That is, if the PCCS was not providing containment cooling, could enough water inventory, due to boil off of the IRWST, he entrained or held up in the containment to impact continued operation of the PRHR?

Response

There are no direct interactions between these the PRHR and the PCS as discussed in Section 2.3.5.2. However, Section 2.3.3.4 discusses the interactions between the IRWST and the PCS once die PRHR actuates and increases the IRWST temperature sufficiently high to initiate steaming to containment. As discussed in this section, the PCS interacts with the IRWST to affect toth the IRWST temperature by establishing the long-term saturation temperature and level being affected by the condensation rate and operation of the PXS condensate retum valves. Long-tenn cooling using PRHR would be expected following non-LOCA events. Without condensate retum, the IRWST inventory is sufficient to allowed continued PRHR operation for up to 72 houts. However, IRWST level will continue to decrease during this time period, causing more of the PRHR HX tube surface area to become uncovered over time. But at the same time, the core decay heat is decreasing and PRHR operation is adequate to provide core cooling during this time period. PCS actuation is required to function as a heat sink during this time period to prevent an increase in containment pressure, but pmviding PCS condensate retum to maintain the IRWST level during this time period is not required. This more detailed information is discussed in the AP6m SSAR.

25. Section 2.3.5.3 addresses the PRHR and SGS interactions. However, there is no discussion on the early-phase, system-wide oscillations observed in the SPES-2 integral systems tests (during the period in which flow through a SG was maintained). These oscillations (or oscillations of a similar character) were also observed in the SGTR test in the SPES-2 facility. Westinghouse should consider addressing the impact of these oscillations. A similar comment is relevant to Section 2.3.6.2 (ADS /SGS).

.) 17

26. Section 2.3.5.5 (PRHR/RCS) does not consider the effect of the PRHR on RCS inventory and thermal-hydraulics. Funher, the issue of stratification in the primary system and its possible impacts are not addressed.

Response

{ Section 2.3.5.5 does specifically address the PRHR effect on RCS inventory and highlights some thennal-hydraulic effects; however, the specific aspects of interest in the first sentence above, beyond thermal stratification. need to be clarified. Paragraph 2 discusses both forced flow heat removal from reactor coolant pumps and natural circulation flow heat removal, single-phase and two-phase heat transfer, and the IRWST heatup. Paragraph 2 continues with the statement that "As the RCS cools down and contracts, RCS j voiding may occur, which can eventually change the PRHR HX transfer process to steam condensation heat transfer.. " The issue of thennal stratification is not specifically discussed, however, the final statement in this section is intended to bound the identified design interactions. The last sentence states that "These design interactions have been confirmed as part of the testing and plant analyses." The discussions in Sections 2.3.3.4 and 2.3.4.3 will be revised to specifically address this comment by including information related to thermal stratification interactions.

27. The last paragraph of Section 2.3.6.1 (ADS /PCCS) states that PCCS perfonnance affects the ADS via containment backpressure. It is not clear that this is tme all of the time. If the ADS is in critical flow, it would appear that containment pressure should have little effect on ADS flow.

In the late ADS-8 phase, containment pressure will affect the transition to subcritical flow, depressurization rate, and--ultimately-IRWST injection. These same comments are relevant, as well, to Section 2.3.7.3 (PCCS/RCS), since the ADS flow impacts both RCS inventory and timing of IRWST and sump injection for maintenance of long-tenn core cooling.

Response

The PCS does affect containment pressure by eaoling the containment, which condenses the steam in the atmosphere and helping to reduce the pressures that occur following an event. The focus of this comments in Section 2.3.6.1 related to containment effects on ADS performance are primarily associated with the very late stages of the depressurization process. It is clearly recognized that at RCS pressures that are much higher than the expected range of containment pressures (early in an event), that critical flow exists from the ADS stages and containment pressure variations have no significant impact on ADS perfonnance until the transition to subcritical flow is appmached as the RCS continues to depressurize. Later in the ADS depressurization sequence when RCS pressure is much lower and decreasing, approaching about twice the existing contailunent pressures, the operation of the ADS moves out of a critical flow regime. At this late time in the depressurization, and later, the existing containment pressure, which is significantly affected by PCS operation. has more significant effects on both RCS injection and ADS vent flow.

~ i ( l ~ i 13. The discussion in Section 2.3.6.1 also briefly discusses the expected transitory response of the i RCS to injection and venting process changes, as well as with core decay heat changes, The discussions for Sections 2.3.6.1 and 2.3.7.3 will be revised to clarify this issue.

28. Section 2.3.7 addresses PCCS/ containment interactions, and discusses only spurious operation of the PCCS. It does not address at all the failure of the PCCS, e.g., effects on containment if no l

water cochng were available to augment external containment heat transfer. Resp <mse: l - The purpose of this repon is to evaluate potential adverse systems interactions related to the design basis liceasing analyses identified in Chapter 15 of the AP600 SSAR and the associated PRA analyses for these events. The scope of this repon is to address the design basis operation i of the identified systems, including credible single failures that are postulated to occur in the operation and associated safety analyses for these safety-related systems. This repon is not intended to address potential adverse systems interactions for either beyond. design-basis accidents or for severe accident conditions, including beyond-design-basis failures of systems and components that would be required for either of these circumstances to occur. The failure of passive containment cooling to actuate can only occur with beyond-design-basis j component failures due to multiple failures of redundant safety-related valves. The containment interactions that occur for the beyond-design-basis failure of the p;ssive core cooling system to j actuate are outside the scope of this repon. Human Factors

29. In addition to human factoi related concems raised in question 1,4,6, and 15 above, several other human reliability issues could be elaborated on in this repon.

l a. The operator has the capability, in a station blackout, to override the automatic ADS actuation just prior to 24 hours. The rationale for including this actuation, as understood by the staff, is to ensure that sufficient battery power is available to open the ADS valves. Suppose that an operator overrides the actuation at 24 hr (minus), but then finds at some time thereafter (say, 36 hours) that it is necessary to actuate the ADS. What are the effects of such a scenario? Is sufficient power available? When does power cease to be available? What alternatives would the operator have if power were not available? Are there other situations in which delaying an action (either actuating a system or overriding its actuation) could have a significant impact on plant response? b. At the end of Section 2.3.6.2, Westinghouse states that the AP600 ERGS provide guidance on manual actuation of ADS-1 to terminate an SGTR event. How is this addressed in terms of human reliability? What if the operator makes an error and causes actuation of the entire ADS systein? Resp <mse a. During a prolonged station blackout event, it is intended that the manual override of the j timer-driven ADS actuation would be implemented no later than 22 hours into the event.

1 ) ,r e 19 leads supplied by the 24-hour battery are de-energized at the time of the ove: Tide decision. This would allow battery conservation. Thus, it is expected that these batteries would have at least a two-hour charge for a later ADS re-actuation, if needed. If the event continues beyond 24 hours, the 72-hour batteries allow the operators to monitor the plant parameters to decide if ADS actuation is needed. Operator action of ADS re-actuation would also include opening of the squib valves for IRWST inject.n and ] containment recirculation functions. Also, there is ample time before the 22nd hour is reached to evaluate the plant conditions and decide whether the manual ADS override is needed or not. Written procedures would be provided for the above described operator actions of overriding and re-establishing of ADS actuation following a prolonged station blackout event. Since the batteries are conserved, as described above, sufficient power is available for re-actuation of ADS during the 22-72 hour time frame. The actuation power is available in the 24-hours batteries after 72 hours. Offsite resources may be invoked to retain the plant monitoring function. In the spectrum of events studied for AP600, the above-discussed action is the only known case where overriding a safety-related system is envisioned, and it applies to a ram event (e.g. station blackout) which is made even more impmbable by considering it be pmlonged over 20 hours. l l b. If the operator makes an error and actuates the entire ADS system in the above mentioned case, the ADS operation will successfully reduce the RCS pressure, thereby tenninating the primary to secondary leak. This success path is already modeled in the AP600 PRA, in the SGTR event trees, as one of the multiple success paths in a SGTR event. The operator action of manual ADS-1 actuation (labeled as ADF-MAN 01 in the PRA) is credited in the PRA only if CVS, SFW, and condenser are available and operator action of pressurizer spray actuation fails. ADF-MAN 01 is assigned a failure probability of 0.5. However, the commission ermr described in the question is not quantified. No adverse conditions that would lead to compounding such a commission ermr have been identified; in the absence of such conditions, the probability of such a commission error is expected to be low (e.g. at the order of 0.0001).

30. Errors of commission are discussed on pp. 3-15 and 3-16, and are specifically connected to actions in the ERGS. Please address the following questions and comments:

What is the impact if the operator fails to start the CVS pump, since starting a pump is "a a. pan of the expected response to the event"? b. With regard to SFW pump interactions in an SGTR, are them any consequences if the operator fails to follow the procedure discussed? Concerning spent fuel pool cooling system interactions (bottom of p. 3-16), Westinghouse c. states that the effects of SFP accidents " develop slowly" and are thus of insignificant risk. How fast could such events be diagnosed? What is the impact of these events on shutdown risk?

( 20:

Response

l In the SGTR event, the aligned CVS pump is expected to stet automatically tdue to low a. I pressurizer water level); credit is given for the manual actuation of th:. standby pump, if the i auto stan fails. In that case, if the operator action fails, then the CVS would not be l operational. This condition is explicitly modeled in the PRA (by CVN MANO3 operator action) and is i::corporated into the risk profile of the plant, b. As modeled in PRA, in die SGTR event tree, the SFW system is expected to actuate automatically due to low SG water level in the faulted SG; the operator action by procedures is credited if the automatic actuation does not take place, if the operator action l also fails, then the next success path would be entered; namely the successful isolation of die faulted SG; CMT injection; and passive RHR operation. This success path does not take credit for decay heat removal by the secondary side. c. SFP level and temperature are monitored in the main control room and are also alanned. So die SFP accidents due to loss of cooling or water level can be diagnosed immediately. The impact of these events on shutdown risk is insignificant. If the SFP cooling is lost, it takes several days before the boil-off reduces the SFP level to the point where it needs to be replenished; this allows ample opponunity for response to the event. Even the fastest conceivable water level loss event (inadvertent draining of SFP water to the IRWST during re' cling when the gate is open) takes 8 hours to reduce the water level to the point where it 5.uds to be replenished. This event is easily diagnosable in the main control mom and can be tenninated by closing the diversion valves to the IRWST or installing the gate. Thus, the SFP events are not funher analyzed in shutdown PRA. Miscellaneous General Comments l

31. Westinghouse should discuss what consideration was given to " indirect" interactions due to instrumentation and controls systems and/or transitory effects (although some credit is taken for the ability of I&C design to " minimize spurious signals" that might cause adverse interactions).

For instance, closure of turbine stop valves could create a level transient (or an indication of a level transient) that could actuate the PRHR system. INEL predicts this could happen. It is not I clear what the ultimate effect would be for: LOCAs (initiates PRHR operation before "S" signal would normally operate); non-LOCA transients and AOOs (could stan PRHR operation earlier than might otherwise be the case. resulting in additional inventory shrinkage -- the ultimate effect l is likely to be scenario dependent); or spurious actuation (spurious actuation of PRHR system). If nothing else, the adverse interaction could simply be more actuations over plant lifetime than the PRHR system is designed for. t

Response

l' I l As stated in this comment, the issue is not a safety concern, but rather one of plant operation following a transient. Westinghouse has selected the PRHR actuation setpoints to avoid l actuation on a turbine trip. Actuation of PRHR for such an event is bounded by the accident analysis provided in SSAR Chapter 15.2.3 for Turbine Trip. 32, The emphasis in the repon is on passive-passive and passive-active interactions that can directly affect the passive safety systems. Are there any " active-active" interactions of interest, i.e., an l interaction between two active systems that could act to impede (or cause spurious actuation of) t

1 -a a 6 g 21 a passive system? This could include secondary or teniary effects, such a feedback from the turbine / generator system through the steam generator to the primary loop. For example; Table 2-1 does not show any systems beyond the secondary side of the RCS. How about effects deriving fmm: turbine / generator (e.g., closing of stop valves causing level transient in SG that actuates PRHR); other indirect interactions--such as transients caused by malfunctions of the EHC system; interactions caused by spurious actuation of the reactor pmtection system or failure of turbine-over-speed protection.

Response

Spurious actuation of passive systems are evaluated in the SSAR Chapter 15 analysis. Therefore, 1 any combination of active systems that could cause a spurious actuation of a safety system is ) bounded by the analysis presented in Chapter 15 of the SSAR. This report identifies interactions that could occur that could degrade the perfonnance of the safety systems once they have been actuated. Any such interactions identified should then be accounted for in the SSAR Chapter 15 accident analysis

33. There are interactions noted that involve the spent fuel cooling system. One rationale given for a

{ low level of concem is that " spent fuel pool accidents are not deemed to be of risk significance." It is not clear that this is consistent with our expressed concern with shutdown risks, or with the recent technical issue on the SFP cooling system, which are still under discussion with Westinghouse.

34. Many actions described in the repon involving valve position changes are noted as " safety-related." Examples include: CVS isolation valves (p.2 II); main feedwater isolation functions (discussed on p. 2-14; these are not explicitly stated to be safety-related, but are assumed by the reviewer to be so); SG blowdown line isolation functions (discussed on p. 2-17); containment sump pump isolation (p. 2-26); primary sampling system (not stated to be safety-related but assumed by the reviewer to be p. 2 2-28); spent fuel pool cooling system isolation (also assumed to be safety related by the reviewer, p. 2-29). Am they all single-failure proof'!

Response

Yes, these isolation functions stated are safety-related and are designed to be tolerant of single-failures.

35. Minor comment: Even if the condensate retum lines (non-safety-related) function properly (see
p. 2-37. third paragraph in Section 2.3.1.5), some condensate may end up in the sump rather than the IRWST.

Response

Yes.

36. Section 2.3.3.3, on IRWST/ ADS interactions, does not consider any of the oscillatory behavior noted in the AP600 integral systems tests. including both oscillations at the stan of IRWST injection. and the late phase oscillations. In both of these cases, the ADS-4 configuration appears to play an imponant role in the development and characteristics of the oscillations.

Westinghouse should consider including a discussion of this behavior and evaluate the possibility

6 22 4 of adverse effects. Since these oscillations also affect the RCS, the same comments apply to Section 2.3.3.7. These oscillations are also relevant to the Sections 2.3.4.2 (containment recirc/ ADS),2.3.4.6 (containment recirc/RCS), and 2.3.6.4 (ADS /RCS).

Response

The oscillatory behavior noted in the AP600 integral systems tests was considered in the evaluation of the adverse systems interactions, but were not explicitly discussed in the report. Additional comments will be added to the following sections of this report to indicate that the oscillatory behavior noted during the AP600 testing does not cause any significant adverse systems interactions for these components since satisfactory core cooling can be maintamsd and core uncovery is prevented. In addition, the observed oscillations during the testing were damped. 2.3.2.5 Accunmlator - SG 2.3.3.1 IRWST - Containment 2.3.4.2 Containment Recire - ADS 2.3.4.6 Containment Recire - RCS 2.3.5.3 PRHR - SG 2.3.6.2 ADS - SG 2.3.6.4 ADS - RCS

37. Loss of instrument air in its entirety or panially can have significant impact on both active and passive systems (CMT, PRHR, Containment Isolation of active systems). Although it is recognized that the air operated valves will fail to their safe position, there could be substantial impact on the overall behavior of the plant due to the shear number of systems affected. Since loss of instrumentation as an initiating event and on a system bases has been examined in the PRA, it would seem appropriate that Westinghouse address the PRA insights on potential adverse system interactions from the loss of instrument air in this report.

Response

The following insights relate to loss of instrument air from the PRA study: 1. For safety related systems and functions, the valves that need to change position either do not use air, or fail safe after loss of air. An example of fail safe case is the CMT AOVs, which open upon loss of air, signal, or DC power. Such an opening would not create any adverse system interactions. The same comments apply to the passive RHR valves. Moreover, the type of AOVs used in these two safety related systems are different to minimize potential common cause failures. 2. For non-safety related functions, SFW contml valves are air operated and would be affected by loss of air. To allow use of these valves after such an event, air bottles are provided. Moreover, these valves can be manually and locally controlled. 3. For CVS system air operated valves, upon loss of instmment air, the auxiliary spray line isolation valve fails closed; the charging stop valve fails open; the makeup pump suction header valve fails aligned to the boric acid tank; makeup Dow control valve fails open.

.~, l 23 Then fore, CVS is still able to pmvide flow to the reactor control systern via the nonnal system flow path, but the pressurizer auxiliary spray is unavailable. l [ 4. The AP600 PRA models the effects of loss of air on safety related and non-safety related systems. The PRA study shows that the instrument air system is not a risk significant system. Also, the contribution of the loss of instrument air initiating event to the plant core damage frequency is very small (0.1%). The fail-open design of passive RHR and CMT system air operated valves provides reliable actuation of these systems in loss of offsite l power and station blackout events, and contributes to the reduction of risk due to diese events. l l

38. Will spurious opening of the CMT discharge valves (not due to a CMT actuation signal), cause l

the RCPs to trip? For example, loss of air to the CMT discharge valve will result in them failing open - will this cause the RCPs to trip? If not, what adverse effects would this cause?

39. The adverse effects of cold weather on the operation of the PCCS appears to merit some consideration. For instance, under extremely cold temperature conditions, it is conceivabie that the annulus floor drains at the bottom of the containment annulus could ice up. Actuation of the PCCS would result in cooling water not evaporated from the contairunent vessel water accumulating in the lower annulus. Enough water accumulation could eventually affect umulus air flow and degrade PCCS operation, in addition, icing of the distribution bucket and weirs could affect distribution of PCCS flow on containment.
40. The stage 1,2, and 3 ADS discharce lines have vacuum breakers to prevent water hammer following ADS actuation. What are the consequences of ADS actuation with the breakers unseated such that ADS discharge is diverted directly into containment rather than quenched in the IRWST? How is the position of the vacuum breakers determined and monitored?
41. The pressurizer safety relief valve discharge lines appear to have a drain line connection to the ADS valve discharge lines. It would seem that actuation of the ADS valves could pressurize the safety relief valves discharge line and blow the mpture disk. What adverse effects would this have on system operations? In addition, if ADS-1 is used manually to depressurize, will the operator have to manually close the drain line isolation valve to the RCDT?
42. In order for the IRWST to function properly, it must directly communicate with the containment atmosphere. Steam and pressure venting capabilities of the IRWST are discussed in the SSAR but there does not appear to be any description of the vacuum relief assurance for the IRWST.

The staff assumes that the iRWST design will have a vacuum relief design sufficiently sized to permit required drain down. However, has the possibility of clogging or obstruction of the vacuum relief paths been considered along with any adverse effect this would have on IRWST draining? Westinghouse should consider including a discussion on this in the adverse systems interaction report and a description of the venting design in the SSAR. This concem would also be applicable to vacuum venting design and potential for clogging / obstructions for the PCCS tank.

43. Are there any advene interactions or effects possible from ADS blowdown on the IRWST level instrumentation?
44. The passive autocatalytic recombiners (PARS) are designed to prevent hydrogen buildup from DBA events from exceeding 4 percent. In a severe accident context, the hydrogen concentrations

24 ( in containment could approach 10 percent. Are there any adverse consequences from the PAR j operating in this higher hydrogen concentration environment (such as overheating or flaming of l the gas discharged from the PARS)?

In the event of a severe accident, hydrogen ignitors would be used for the purpose of huming hydrogen generated in contairunent before high concentrations are reached. In the event that the PARS continue operating in a higher hydrogen concentration environment, there would be no adverse effect due to a postulated elevated exhaust temperature emanating from the PARS because the PARS are placed in locations for which elevated exhaust temperatures do not effect other equipment inside containment.

45. The main control room habitability system maintains control room air pressure with pressure relief dampers. What are the consequences of a failure of one of these dampers?

Response

A failure of one of the pressure relief dampers is compensated for by closing one of the pressure relief isolation valves upstream of the damper. Two redundant pressure relief flow paths are provided to account for a single failure, such as a damper. One flow path has sufficient vent area to accommodate the air delivery from both trains of emergency air storage tanks. l l

46. What controls are provided to ensure the quality of the air in the main control room habitability j

system air storage tanks? Has the possibility of degradation of the air quality in the storage tanks with time been considered (due to material coatings, grease, other unidentified contaminants within the tanks that could gradually sublime and mix with the air)?

Response

The emergency air storage tanks are steam cleaned by the vendor, dried, and filled with dry nitrogen prior to shipment. After arriving on site, the tanks are purged of nitrogen and filled with clean, dry air, which meets the specifications established by the VES system. The quality of air stored in the tanks is ensured by periodically extracting a grab sample from the system and performing a lab analysis of the sample. The sample interval will be established by the COL applicant.

47. Is it possible for a secondary side break or rupture (within containment) to cause and actuation of the ADS system? Under such circumstances, significant additional water inventory will be added to containment; are there any adverse conditions possible fmm such a scenario (such as boron dilution)?
48. Section 2.3.6.4 of the adverse systems interaction report states that a " spurious ADS LOCA is a terminable LOCA event. [although] operators are act instmeted to terminate ADS." Please explain this statement.. Information in Table 3-1 differs in that it states that " procedures exist to terminate the event" [ spurious ADS). How would a spurious ADS be terminated?

l.,- 25

Response

The comments above are contained in Section 3.4 and the associated Table 3-1 that refer to a specific event discussed in Section 2.3.6.4 (ADS / RCS) -- spurious ADS during power operation. Section 3.4 specifically addresses the evaluation of potential human commission errors related to these two passive salety-related subsystems. 1 For clarification, there are two potential types of spurious ADS actuations will be addressed by l this response: A system-level ADS actuation signal that results in the sequencing of ADS Stages 1-3 A nonsystem-level actuation, such as a single ADS line that spuriously opens For the system-level case, a spurious ADS is an event that can be tenninated. But like any safety-related actuation signal, termination is allowed only under some very specific conditions. In general, tennination of any plant safeguards actuation signal in the Emergency Operating Procedures (EOPs) is perfonned in order to restore the plant after plant conditions have become stable and subsequent plant recover is anticipated using specific plant procedures. If a spurious system-level ADS occurs, the EOPs would confinn that proper systems responses occurred and that at some point in the procedures, stable plant conditions exist and are being maintained that allow the actuation signal to be reset and the safety-related systems to be removed fmm service. j So the statement in Section 3.4 is correct, meaning that under the specific termination criteria in the EOPs. the system-level ADS actuation signal could be reser and the plant restore to a stable condition with the ADS system removed frnm service (by closing the ADS valves). liowever, the statement that the operators are not instructed to tenninate ADS is intended to show that the automatic ADS actuation would not be intenupted so that only panial actuation occurs and that the plant is in an intermediate condition where termination is not allowed -- and under conditians that would probably not meet the associated termination criteria. In the ADS design, there are two separate actuation signals: Actuation of the Stage I to 3 timing sequence Subsequent Stage 4 actuation if CMT level continues to decrease The operators would not be allowed to interfere with the Stage I to 3 sequence until it was completed and conditions to terminate safety-related systems were satisfied. If stable conditions existed that did not require the additional Stage 4 actuation on a continually decreasing CMT level. such as through recovery of RCS inventory using the nonsafety-related chemical and volume control system makeup pumps, then the operators cot!d terminate ADS operation at this time. For the second case listed above. where a system-level actuation has clearly not been generated l and the spurious ADS actuation involves spurious opening (such as the spurious opening of both series valves in a single ADS line), the o[citors would be expected to confirm that the system-l level actuation signal is not present and then ta attempt to manually close at least one of the two spuriously open series ADS valves in the affected line to stop the spurious RCS depressurization. l l L J

..( 26 These operators actions would be equivalent to operator actions in currently licensed plams to close a spuriously opened, safety-related steam generator atmospheric power-operated relief valve, that was opened in a condition outside of its normal actuation conditions due to a malfunction in the automatic actuation circuitry, to stop a spurious steam generator depressurization.

49. Extensive effon is being placed on the human factors design of control room operaior controls for the AP600. For example, manual actuation of the ADS requires two separate operator actions. Experience indicates that many human factors related events are a result of ermrs during testing or maintenance of !&C components. In the case of a spurious ADS signal.

Westinghouse states in Table 3-1 that the most likely human error may be related to testing or maintenance of instrumentation. Related specifically to the ADS-4 squib valves, what protection i is provided by the design of the ADS-4 actuation circuitry to prevent an inadvener.: discharge of a squib valve during surveillance testing, trouble shooting, or repairs being conduued inside the applicable I&C cabinets in the PMS system. For example, what measures would pr. cent a technician from accidently performing a continuity check on the electrical leads to a squib valve explosive charge (assuming that such a check could result in the firing of the charge)? Are there any other systems in which an inadvertent actuation due to maintenance or I&C could have significant adverse effects.

50. Related to the human factors aspects of question 29 above conceming actions following an extended station blackout, there may be a need for operators to take some additional actions if temperature limits are being appmached in the I&C cabinets due to lack of normal contml mom cooling. What actions could the operator be expected to take and is there a potential for errors of commission or omission? What would be the consequences of a such ermrs?

Response

As discussed below, there is no need for operator actions for cooling I&C cabinet rooms, or the contra room during the 72-hour period following an extended station blackout or loss of ventilation system. Thus, there are no postulated omission or commission errors. The temperature in the I&C moms following a loss of the nuclear island non-radioactive ventilation system remains below 120 F over a 72 hour period. If cooling is required beyond 72 hours, the room doors are opened and cooling is achieved via natural circulation. Attematively, portable fans with flexible ducting may be obtained from offsite, and used to deliver convection cooling to each of the electrical equipment rooms using ambient air, as needed. The same discussion applies to the main control room.

51. There appears to be the possibility of adverse effects following the termination of an abnonnal event. For example, the CMTs could be actuated during an event which is then successfully terminated after a period of CMT recirculation. This would leave the CMTs full of hot water at elevated pressure. What potential interactions could occur as the CMTs are cooled? liow are these interactions prevented or mitigated? In general, have interactions of this type (i.e.,

recovery from tenninable sequences) been considered? I \\ _j}}
