Page iii Reisioin"  ;ý'keco"*rd of :Revision 0 Original issue 0-1 Calculation updated with heat loads from MNQ9-3 Modified the UHS fan requirements as a result of UHS design basis changes from calculation ECM95-008 due to the core power uprate to 3716 MWt. The design ACCW flow rate was reduced to 5350 gpm to be consistent with DRN calculation EC-M95-008. A regression analysis was added for an ACCW flow 03 - 510 rate of 3250 gpm to allow for interpolation. The regression analysis in Section 7.2.3 and Attachment 7.1 was deleted and replaced with interpolation, because the adjusted WCT flow falls into the range covered by the WCT performance curves DRN Calculation revised for 3716 MWt power uprate 05 - 768 CR 97-0777 documented that the containment heat loads for the UHS did not contain certain conservative assumptions. The purpose of this calculation change is to determine the UHS fans required for operability based on the additional UHS heat loads described in CR 97-077. This is a complete rewrite; therefore no revision bars are used.

This revision incorporated all outstanding changes and DRNs. Input calc.

ECM95-008 was revised requiring all calculations to be revised accordingly.

Corrected error in the conclusion section identified on CR-WF3-2007-1428.

The calculation determined the correct values, but it was transferred 2 incorrectly to the conclusion section. Therefore, this is an administrative change only.

TwDb_72.5 0 F 8 4 The DCT minimum fans required for various ambient conditions is not applicable if CCW is secured to any DCT section. This calculation evaluated the DCT fan requirements using the CCW accident flow rate.

With a fan(s) out-of-service, a cover(s) must be in place to prevent other fans from drawing air through the out-of-service fan's discharge stack. If four fans are out of service in the same cell, the covers do not have to be installed.

  • It is noted that the Twb to allow a fan to be placed out of service is greater than the UHS design basis Twb given in R6. This is because the WCT can cool the basin water lower than the WCT basin temperature specified in Technical Specifications 3/4.7.4 (See R6).

WATERFORD 3 DESIGN ECM95-009 Rev. 2 ENGINEERING Page 3 of 13 3.0 INPUT CRITERIA 3.1 UHS Design Basis (Ref. R6)

Dry Bulb Temperature (Tdb) - 102 0 F Wet Bulb Temperature (Twb) - 78 0F DCT CCW Inlet Temperature - 164.56°F DCT CCW Outlet Temperature - 131.11 OF DCT Heat Duty - 113.38 x 106 BTU/hr WCT ACCW Outlet Temperature - 89.3 0 F WCT Heat Duty - 59.72 x 106 BTU/hr WCT Accident Flow Rate - 5350 gpm WCT Cooling Range - 22.490 F Reference R6 uses a WCT ACCW Outlet Temperature of 89.3°F. Using the Tech. Spec. limit of 89.0°F conservatively decreases the wet bulb temperature at which 8,7, and 4 fans must be operable in section 2.1 3.2 DCT Fan Design (Ref. R3)

Number of Fans - 15 Fan Capacity - 196,000 CFM ea.

3.3 WCT Fan Design (Ref. R4)

Number of Fans -8 Fan Brake Horsepower - 28.8 hp ea.

3.4 Zurn Industries WCT Performance Curves - Outlet Temperature vs. Wet Bulb Temperature as a function of Cooling Range. (Ref. R7)

Reference R5 utilizes margin from the UHS start-up test as the technical basis for UHS fan inoperability. The margin captured during the UHS start-up test is the allowable fouling incorporated into the equipment design. This calculation will retain the allowable fouling for Dry Cooling Tower (DCT) and Wet Cooling Tower (WCT) by analyzing the equipment using manufacturer design data.

3.5 Hot Air Recirculation Effect (Ref. R6)

Dry Bulb Temperature - 1.97F Wet Bulb Temperature - 1.0°F 3.6 Equations and properties are taken from Reference C1

WATERFORD 3 DESIGN ECM95-009 Rev. 2 ENGINEERING Page 4 of 13 4.0 ASSUMPTIONS 4.1 Although some cooling will take place without the DCT fans operating, It is assumed that DCT performance is directly proportional to the number of fans running 4.2 This calculation uses WCT performance curves that are the expected WCT performance. These expected performance curves were demonstrated as conservative during plant start-up. The WCT actual performance is provided in Reference R5.

4.3 Linear interpolation will be used to determine the wet bulb temperatures (Twb) at the adjusted WCT flow rate due to fans out of service. If the WCT adjusted flow is not in the range of the performance curves, Microsoft Excel "Regression" Analysis will be used using three WCT flow rates.

4.4 WCT inlet air density based on 80% relative humidity (4).

4.5 With a WCT fan out-of-service, a cover is in place to prevent other fans from drawing air through the out-of-service fan's discharge stack unless all four fans in one cell are out.

WATERFORD 3 DESIGN ECM95-009 Rev. 2 ENGINEERING Page 5 of 13 5.0 METHOD OF ANALYSIS 5.1 Reference R5 Amendment I adds additional heat load to the CCW heat exchanger (CCWHx) when UHS fans are inoperable. Since the UHS design basis, Reference R6, determines the minimum CCWHx fouling, adding additional heat duty to the CCWHx would decrease this value. This calculation will analyze the Dry Cooling Tower (DCT) and Wet Cooling Tower (WCT) separately in order not to affect the CCWHx design basis fouling.

5.2 The DCT air outlet (Airout) temperature will be calculated using the design basis DCT heat duty of 113.38 x 106 BTU/hr at an air inlet of 103.9 0 F; the UHS design basis dry bulb temperature (Tdb) plus hot air recirculation effect.

The maximum Tdb with one and three DCT fans out of service is calculated using the conservation of energy at the DCT calculated Airout temperature.

This result is reduced by 1.9 0 F to account for hot air recirculation.

(Sec. 3.1, 3.5) 5.3 Linear equations can be derived to describe the WCT performance since the WCT performance curves assume a linear relationship (y = mx +b). Using the "Regression" Tool in Microsoft Excel, the slope and intercept of the WCT performance curves at flow rates of 3250 gpm, 5850 gpm, 6500 gpm and 7150 gpm are calculated. Using these equations, the wet bulb temperatures (TWb) to maintain an ACCW outlet temperature of 89.0°F at the WCT design cooling range will be calculated at WCT flow rates of 3250 gpm, 5850 gpm, 6500 gpm and 7150 gpm. (Ref. R7, Sec. 3.1) 5.4 Per CTI Code ATC-105, WCT inlet flow is proportional to [fan brake horsepower] 1/3. Adjusting the WCT inlet flow with fans out of service, the maximum Twb with one and four WCT fans out of service is calculated by interpolating the results in Section 6.2 at the adjusted WCT inlet flow. This result is reduced by 1.0°F to account for hot air recirculation.

(Ref. C2, Sec. 3.5)

WATERFORD 3 DESIGN ECM95-009 Rev. 2 ENGINEERING Page 6 of 13 6.0 CALCULATION 6.1 DCT Fan Requirements for Various Dry Bulb Temperatures (Tdb) 6.1.1 Tdb for One DCT Fan Inoperable Determine Airout at Design Conditions Q = mCn(Tin-Tout) or (CFM)(60)(p)(Cp)(Tin-Tout)

Solving for Tout Tout = Tin + (Q/((CFM)(60)(p)(Cp)))

where:

Tout = Air Outlet Temperature (Airout-°F)

Tin = 103.9 0 F - Air Inlet Temperature (Input 3.1, 3.5)

Q = 113.38 x 106 BTU/hr- Heat Transfer Required (Input 3.1) p = 0.0705 Ibm/ft 3 - Dry Air Density @ 103.9 0 F CFM = 196,000 CFM/Fan or 2,940,000 CFM - 15 Fans (Input 3.2)

Cp = 0.24 BTU/Ibm - °F Tout = 103.9 + (113.38 x 106/ (2940000*60*0.24*0.0705))

Tout = 141.89°F To determine the maximum Tdb with one fan inoperable, the Airout temperature of 141.89°F calculated at design conditions will remain the same. Assuming that DCT performance is directly proportional to the number of fans running, Tdb with one fan inoperable is calculated using the conservation of energy where:

Tin = Tout - (Q/((CFM)(60)(p)(Cp)))

where:

Tin = Tdb - Air Inlet Temperature Tout = 141.89°F - Air Outlet Temperature Q = 113.38 x 106 BTU/hr - Heat Transfer Required (Input 3.1)

CFM = 196,000 CFM/Fan or 2,744,000 CFM - 14 Fans (Input 3.2) p = 0.0708 Ibm/ft 3 Air Density @ 101OF (Assumed)

Cp = 0.24 BTU/Ibm - °F Tin = 141.89 - (113.38 x 106 / (2744000*60*0.0708*0.24))

Tin = 101.36°F : 101'F assumed for air density

WATERFORD 3 DESIGN ECM95-009 Rev. 2 ENGINEERING Page 7 of 13 Accounting for the hot air recirculation effect, Tdb for one fan inoperable is reduced by 1.9°F or = 99.500F.

6.1.2 Tdb for Three DCT Fans Inoperable To determine the maximum Tdb with three fans inoperable, the Airout temperature of 141.89°F calculated at design conditions will remain the same. Assuming that DCT performance is directly proportional to the number of fans running, Tdb with three fans inoperable is calculated using the conservation of energy where:

Tin = Tout - (Q/((CFM)(60)(p)(Cp)))

where:

Tin = Tdb - Air Inlet Temperature Tow = 141.89°F - Air Outlet Temperature (Sec. 6.1.1)

Q = 113.38 x 106 BTU/hr - Heat Transfer Required (Input 3.1)

CFM = 196,000 CFM/Fan or 2,352,000 CFM - 12 Fans (Input 3.2) p = 0.0716 Ibm/ft 3 Air Density @ 95 0F (Assumed)

Cp = 0.24 BTU/Ibm - °F Tin = 141.89- (113.38 x 106/ (2352000*60*0.0716*0.24))

Tin = 95.14°F z 95°F assumed for air density Accounting for the hot air recirculation effect, Tdb for three fans inoperable is reduced by 1.90 F or = 93.2 0 F.

6.2 WCT Fan Requirements for Various Wet Bulb Temperatures (TWb) 6.2.1 Determine Twb for Various WCT Flow Rates at a Cooling Range of 22.49°F and a ACCWout Temperature of 89.0°F. (Input 3.1)

Two data points, Wet Bulb Temperature (Twb) and ACCW outlet temperature (ACCWout), for cooling ranges of 170 F and 22°F at ACCW flow rates of 3250gpm, 5850 gpm, 6500 gpm and 7150 gpm were obtained from the Zurn WCT performance curves. The slope and intercept of these curves were calculated using Microsoft Excel Regression Analysis. The printouts are provided in Attachment 7.1. Using these equations, the TWb at these flow rates is calculated at a WCT cooling range of 22.49°F and an ACCW outlet (ACCWout) temperature of 89.0°F. The results are provided below.

.:[-jiRecord~of 0 Original issue 0-1 Calculation updated with heat loads from MNQ9-3 Modified the UHS fan requirements as a result of UHS design basis changes from calculation ECM95-008 due to the core power uprate to 3716 MWt. The design ACCW flow rate was reduced to 5350 gpm to be consistent with DRN calculation EC-M95-008. A regression analysis was added for an ACCW flow 03- 510 rate of 3250 gpm to allow for interpolation. The regression analysis in Section 7.2.3 and Attachment 7.1 was deleted and replaced with interpolation, because the adjusted WCT flow falls into the range covered by the WCT performance curves DRN Calculation revised for 3716 MWt power uprate 05 - 768 CR 97-0777 documented that the containment heat loads for the UHS did not contain certain conservative assumptions. The purpose of this calculation change is to determine the UHS fans required for operability based on the additional UHS heat loads described in CR 97-077. This is a complete rewrite; therefore no revision bars are used.

This revision incorporated all outstanding changes and DRNs. Input calc.

ECM95-008 was revised requiring all calculations to be revised accordingly.

1 Corrected error in the conclusion section identified on CR-WF3-2007-1428.

The calculation determined the correct values, but it was transferred 2 incorrectly to the conclusion section. Therefore, this is an administrative change only.

Incorporate the impacts of the Replacement Steam Generator, which bound the current plant conditions. Also, this markup assumes that an equal number EC21824 of fans in the wet cooling tower are out-of-service in each cell. Section 3 References was added to this calculation.

The markup for EC21824 indicated the incorrect Revision as 1, Revision 2 is correct.

This calculation evaluated the DCT fan requirements using the CCW accident flow rate.

With any WCT fan(s) out-of-service in any cell, covers must be in place on the out-of-service fan(s) or the entire tower must be declared out-of- NT 00 service. In addition for the case with 6 fans operable, no more than 1 fan Co per any one cell may be out-of-service or the entire tower must be declared (N out of service. For the case with 4 fans operable, no more than 2 fans per any one cell may be out-of-service or the entire tower must be declared out of service.

It is noted that the Twb to allow a fan to be placed out of service is greater 00 than the UHS design basis Twb given in 3.6. This is because the WCT can Wo cool the basin water lower than the WCT basin temperature specified in 04 Technical Specifications 3/4.7.4 (See 3.6).

Reference 3.5 utilizes margin from the UHS start-up test as the technical basis LU for UHS fan inoperability. The margin captured during the UHS start-up test is the allowable fouling incorporated into the equipment design.

These expected performance curves were demonstrated as conservative during plant start-up. The WCT actual performance is provided in Reference 3.5. ,-

WATERFORD 3 DESIGN ECM95-009 Rev. 2 ENGINEERING Page 6 of 14 6.0 METHOD OF ANALYSIS 6.1 Reference 3.5 Amendment I adds additional heat load to the CCW heat exchanger (CCWHx) when UHS fans are inoperable. Since the UHS design basis, Reference 3.6, determines the minimum CCWHx fouling, adding w additional heat duty to the CCWHx would decrease this value. This calculation will analyze the Dry Cooling Tower (DCT) and Wet Cooling Tower (WCT) separately in order not to affect the CCWHx design basis fouling.

6.2 The DCT air outlet (Airout) temperature will be calculated using the design basis DCT heat duty of 117.36 x 106 BTU/hr at an air inlet of 103.9°F; the UHS design basis dry bulb temperature (Tdb) plus hot air recirculation effect. 0 The maximum Tdb with one and three DCT fans out of service is calculated w using the conservation of energy at the DCT calculated Airout temperature.

This result is reduced by 1.9°F to account for hot air recirculation.

(Sec. 4.1, 4.5)o00 04 6.3 Linear equations can be derived to describe the WCT performance since the w WCT performance curves assume a linear relationship (y = mx +b). Using the "Regression" Tool in Microsoft Excel, the slope and intercept of the WCT performance curves at flow rates of 3250 gpm, 5850 gpm, 6500 gpm and 7150 gpm are calculated. Using these equations, the wet bulb temperatures (Twb) to maintain an ACCW outlet temperature of 89.0°F at the WCT design cooling range will be calculated at WCT flow rates of 3250 gpm, 5850 gpm, 6500 gpm and 7150 gpm. (Ref. 3.7, Sec. 4.1)._o 04 6.4 Per CTI Code ATC-105, WCT inlet flow is proportional to [fan brake w horsepower] 1/3. Adjusting the WCT inlet flow with fans out of service, the maximum Twb with two and four WCT fans out of service is calculated by 'IT interpolating the results in Section 7.2 at the adjusted WCT inlet flow. This N 00 result is reduced by 1.0°F to account for hot air recirculation.

(Ref. 3.10, Sec. 4.5) W 6.5 WCT Fans out of service are analyzed assuming each cell has the same number of fans out. This is done such that the air flow through each cell is the same. If the air flow is not the same through each cell then a revisedo methodology is required; a fan only affects the airflow through its respective cell. If four fans are taken out of service in one cell then there will be no air L flow through the cell and therefore tower capability will be reduced by at least 50%

  • It is note that the TWb to allow a fan to be placed out of service is greater than the UHS design basis Twb given in reference 3.6. This is caused by the WCT basin temperature being maintained cooler than the temperature specified in Technical Specifications 3/4.7.4 assuming the design basis meteorological condition of 102°Fdb / 78°Fwb. See Reference 3.6.
