ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 1 (Revision 1)
During the review of Attachment X of the LAR regarding National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 805 Transition Report (Reference 1), the NRC staff requested in an RAI (SCVB-RAl-5) that TVA describe the revised BFN, Units 1, 2, and 3, residual heat removal (RHR) heat exchanger performance monitoring program, which will assure that its fouling factor and tube plugging would not exceed their worst values assumed in calculating a K-value of 284.5 British thermal unit (BTU)/sec-degrees Fahrenheit (&deg;F). In response to this RAI (Reference 2), TVA stated, "The revised performance monitoring program has not been developed at this time ... ",
and made a commitment to revise the program that monitors the RHR heat exchanger performance.
In the approval of the NFPA 805 LAR, the NRC imposed the following license condition, which was accepted by TVA as implementation Item No. 49 in Reference 3:
Revise the program that monitors BFN Residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchanger performance for consistency with the assumptions of the NFPA 805 Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) analysis. The monitoring program shall include verification that the tested worst fouling resistance, with measurement uncertainty added, of all BFN Units 1, 2, and 3 RHR heat exchangers is less than the design value of 0.001517 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU and the worst tube plugging is less than 4.57 percent.
In Attachment 6 (Reference 4) and Attachment 39 (Reference 5) to the extended power uprate (EPU) LAR, at the EPU design-basis accident (DBA) loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) statepoint, the RHR heat exchanger K-value for one heat exchanger is reported to be 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F for a design fouling resistance of 0.001521 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, which supersedes the fouling factor of 0.001517 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU reported in the NFPA 805 LAR.
Section 2.1 of Reference 5 provides the following EPU RHR heat exchanger K-values used in the analyses:
265 BTU/sec-&deg;F (DBA-LOCA, Small Break LOCA, Loss of Shutdown Cooling, Stuck Open Relief Valve and SBO [Station Blackout]), 302 BTU/sec-&deg;F (Shutdown of Non-Accident Unit), and 287 BTU/sec-&deg;F (fire event defense-in-depth demonstration case) are based on the EPU design fouling resistance, 0.001521 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
307 BTU/sec-&deg;F (fire event licensing basis) is based on the EPU nominal fouling resistance, 0.001097 hr-ft2- &deg;F/BTU.
277 BTU/sec-&deg;F for the ATWS-MSIVC-EOC event corresponds to a nominal fouling resistance of 0.001220 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
Describe the performance monitoring program to monitor the as-found worst RHR heat exchanger fouling factor and plugged tubes. As mentioned above, the description of this program was previously requested for the NFPA 805 LAR approval and is being again requested for the EPU LAR submittal. The monitoring program must verify the EPU design fouling resistance, 0.001521 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU and EPU nominal fouling resistance and 0.001097 hr-ft[2]-&deg;F/BTU, as given above.

ENCLOSURE 1 TVA Response:
General

== Description:==

Beginning in January 2012, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchanger performance tests were performed in conjunction with quarterly Reactor Core Injection Cooling (RCIC) surveillance testing (see item h, below, for further details). The RHR heat exchanger testing involves installation of temporary temperature and temporary differential pressure instruments (connected to instrument taps from permanently installed Residual Heat Removal Service Water (RHRSW) flow orifices or RHR flow nozzles) to collect the data necessary to compute heat exchanger tube side and shell side heat transfer rates. The RHR heat exchanger testing uses a Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA)-approved procedure to perform the test. Under contract, an outside vendor operating under a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance (QA) program provides the test instrumentation, including data acquisition system, collects and processes the data, and provides test reports documenting the results. The data analysis and preparation of vendor test reports are performed by a vendor also operating under a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance Program in accordance with approved procedures. The procedures include steps to compare process and tube side heat transfer rates and to statistically evaluate test data such that results conservatively account for the uncertainties associated with each test. Thus, the accuracy of each test, which varies from one test to another, is reflected in the test results which are then compared to the acceptance criteria.
This RAI response details describes how the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN) Generic Letter (GL) 89-13 program is expected to be changed once incorporates the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 805 license condition requirements becomes effective. The GL 89-13 program is currently scheduled to be revised by June 16, 2016, to support NFPA 805 transition implementation. TVA will inform the NRC when tThe GL 89-13 program has been revised through incorporation of NFPA 805 license condition requirements into applicable implementing procedures. Copies of these implementing procedures, 0-TI-322, RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Testing, and 0-TI-522, Program for Implementing NRC Generic Letter 89-13, are provided in Attachments 1 and 2, respectively, of this RAI response.
A more detailed response addressing each specific item is provided below:
(a)    The Current Licensed Thermal Power (CLTP) scope of monitoring complieswill be established once the with the NFPA 805 license condition is implemented (on or before June 16, 2016). Extended Power Uprate (EPU) implementation will not require any changes to the CLTP scope of monitoring. In both cases, the scope of monitoring will includes verification that: (1) tested worst fouling resistance of all BFN Units 1, 2, and 3 RHR heat exchangers is less than the design value acceptance criteria; (2) worst tube plugging is less than the tube plugging acceptance criteria.
(b)    An RHR heat Heat exchanger Exchanger performance Performance testing Monitoring program Program will be maintained through the BFN Preventive Maintenance (PM) program. Previously (prior to June 16, 2016)Prior to implementation of the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program required by the NFPA 805 license condition, the GL 89-13 commitment for the RHR heat exchangers was met through BFN PM Program routine cleaning and inspection. Current plans are to have tested eEach RHR heat exchanger was tested at least once by June 16, 2016. Thereafter,Subsequent testing of each RHR heat exchanger will be tested performed periodically at an interval that is nominally four years, but initially will not exceed five years. The performance testing PMs provide criteria for reassessing the performance testing frequency based E1-3

ENCLOSURE 1 upon test results. Additionally, the heat exchangers will be cleaned on an 8-year frequency at a maximum. This 8-year cleaning frequency is based on supporting PM-required RHR heat exchanger tube eddy current testing, which is a PM requirement outside of the BFN GL 89-13 program. More frequent RHR heat exchanger cleanings will occur if the fouling rate, (as trended,) indicates the need to take corrective actions in order to maintain the heat exchanger condition within the fouling resistance acceptance criteria (see item (c) response, below).

Visual Inspection and Cleaning Each RHR heat exchanger will be CLTP (expectation as of June 16, 2016) cleaned on an 8-year frequency.
Each RHR heat exchanger will be cleaned once every 8-years at a maximum. or mMore frequently RHR heat exchanger cleaning will occur if the EPU Implementation                                fouling rate, as trended, by TVA engineering indicates the need to take corrective actions in order to maintain the heat exchanger condition within the fouling resistance acceptance criteria.
(c) CLTP fouling resistance acceptance criteria will bewas established upon implementation of the NFPA 805 license condition (on or before June 16, 2016). Upon EPU implementation, the fouling resistance acceptance criteria will be changed, as described in EPU License Amendment Request (LAR) Attachment 39. Specifically, the NFPA 805 design fouling resistance of 0.001517 hr-ft2-&deg;F/Btu (corresponding to Design Basis Accident-Loss of Coolant Accident (DBA-LOCA) event with RHR heat exchanger K of 265 Btu/sec-&deg;F) will be replaced with the EPU design fouling resistance of 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/Btu (corresponding to the limiting EPU DBA-LOCANFPA 805 fire event with RHR heat exchanger K of 265 290 Btu/sec-&deg;F).

    *The EPU DBA-LOCA design and licensing basis minimum required heat removal rate (System Operability Limit per American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Operation and Maintenance (OM)-2015, Part 21, Section 9.1) is 80,136,000 Btu/hr per heat exchanger, with two heat exchangers in service. BFN design calculations establish tThe RHR heat exchanger testing program fouling resistance acceptance criteria is based on the limiting EPU DBA-LOCA NFPA 805 fire eventdesign and licensing basis minimum required heat removal rate.
The RHR heat exchanger performance test result fouling resistance (including test uncertainty) will be compared to the DBA-LOCA eventfouling resistance acceptance criterion (fouling resistance of 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/Btu). This acceptance criterion was determined from a deterministic containment analysis based on conservative inputs.
Upon EPU implementation, BFN will follow the guidance from the ASME OM-2015, Part 21, Section 9.1, System Operability Limits, for the DBA-LOCA event. Specifically, the EPU DBA-LOCA design and licensing basis minimum required heat removal rate, as shown described in the notes for EPU LAR Attachment 39, Table 4, will be the System Operability Limit. Additionally, RHR heat exchanger performance test fouling resistance, including test uncertainty, will be trended for comparison to the DBA-LOCA event fouling resistance acceptance criterion, in a manner consistent with ASME OM-2015, Part 21, Section 6.10, except for the second paragraph of Section 6.10.2. Because the BFN testing program will compare the test results to the acceptance criteria at the time the program is established, BFN will take specific exception to the second paragraph of Section 6.10.2 which requires trending these parameters for a minimum of three test or monitoring points prior to comparison to the applicable acceptance criteria (i.e., trending will be performed prior to having a minimum of three test or monitoring points). This is the only exception to Section 6.10.

(f) Test set-up included installation of temporary surface mounted temperature sensors on the heat exchanger process (RHR) and cooling water (RHRSW) inlet and outlet pipes.
The piping insulation was removed and eight temporary surface-mounted temperature sensors were uniformly spaced at 45&deg; increments around the circumference of each outlet pipe. Piping insulation was also removed from each inlet pipe and four temporary surface-mounted temperature sensors were uniformly spaced at 90&deg; increments around the circumference of each inlet pipe. The pipe insulation was then reinstalled over the E1-6

ENCLOSURE 1 temporary surface-mounted temperature sensors to reduce the influence from external environmental conditions. The temporary surface-mounted temperature sensor leads were bundled and routed to the data acquisition unit.
Dimensions of the system piping where RHRSW and RHR temperature sensors were mounted are contained in the detailed vendor test report. RHRSW inlet temperature sensors were mounted on 16 OD, 0.375 wall thickness, carbon steel pipe. RHRSW outlet temperature sensors were mounted on 12.75 OD, 0.375 wall thickness, carbon steel pipe. RHR inlet and outlet temperature sensors were mounted on 20 OD, 0.50 wall thickness, carbon steel pipe.
Temporary differential pressure instruments were connected to instrument taps from permanently installed RHRSW flow orifices and RHR flow nozzles.
The GL 89-13 implementing procedures require the following.
    -   Temporary surface mounted temperature instrumentation for RHR and RHRSW inlet and outlet piping shall meet the guidance identified in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
    - Temporary differential pressure (DP) instrumentations connected to the instrument taps from the permanently installed RHRSW flow orifices and RHR flow nozzles shall meet the guidance provided in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
Future RHR heat exchanger performance testing will be performed in a manner similar to or the same as that described above and performed to date, or in a manner that is consistent with the EPRI guidance identified in response (e), above.
(g) Temporary test instrumentation (e.g., surface-mounted temperature sensors, delta-P meters, current converter and data acquisition system) and thus, the associated instrumentation accuracy, is provided to BFN under contract from an outside vendor where 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix B and 10 CFR Part 21 apply. The vendors Quality Assurance System complies with applicable requirements of International Standardization Organization (ISO)/International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)-17025-2005, American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL) Z540-I-1994 and ISO 9001: 2008. The instruments are calibrated against standards traceable to the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) or compared to nationally or internationally recognized consensus standards. The reported calibration uncertainty has a confidence level of 95% (k=2). The temporary surface-mounted temperature sensors used during the tests that have been performed to date had a calibration accuracy of 0.1 &deg;F. Calibration certificates for the pre-test and post-test calibrations are included in the vendor test report.
Temporary delta-P meters were used to record the flow rates for RHR and RHRSW. The meters had a pre-test and post-test accuracy of 0.05% of full scale. The composite systematic uncertainty for the instruments used in measurement of RHRSW and RHR flow rates for the RHR heat exchanger performance tests performed since January 2012 is documented in each vendor test report. This value was calculated using 95% confidence analysis techniques. The resulting composite systematic uncertainty from each test for both RHRSW and RHR flow rates has been less than +/-5% of measured flow.

ENCLOSURE 1 Supplied temporary test instrumentation and associated instrumentation accuracy meets the Industry Standards/Guidelines identified in response (e), above. Specifically, EPRI 3002005340, Section 1.6.9 states, ASME PTC 12.5, Single Phase Heat Exchangers was revised in 2005 and provides comprehensive guidance to plan, conduct and analyze results for accurate performance tests of single phase heat exchangers. The Code details information for calculation techniques and methods to determine steady state performance at both test conditions and reference conditions. Guidelines are also provided for instrumentation and accuracy. ASME PTC 12.5, Section 3.1.1 states, As a benchmark, the calibration uncertainty for temperature measurements shall be less than +/-0.2&deg;F
(+/-0.1&deg;C), the total flow measurement uncertainty shall be less than +/-5% of measured flow The instrumentation used in the tests performed to date meets these guidelines.
Installation of temporary test instrumentation is performed under an approved TVA procedure using the BFN work order process. The GL 89-13 implementing procedures require the following.
    -   Temporary instruments shall be calibrated against standards traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology or compared to nationally or internationally recognized consensus standards.
Future RHR heat exchanger performance testing is expected to be performed in a manner similar to or the same as that described above and performed to date.
(h) One of the attributes of an effective RHR heat exchanger performance test is to maximize the heat exchanger heat removal rate. This requires maximizing the difference between the RHR (heat exchanger shell side) inlet temperature and the RHRSW (heat exchanger tube side) inlet temperature. The RHR (heat exchanger shell side) inlet temperature is dependent upon the suppression pool (torus) temperature while the RHRSW (heat exchanger tube side) inlet temperature is dependent upon the ultimate heat sink (river) temperature. These water bodies experience a maximum temperature differential during winter months, with a reduced temperature difference in spring and fall months, and a minimum temperature differential during summer months. Consequently, the best time of the year for maximizing the heat load on the RHR heat exchanger is to perform the test during winter months.
Beginning January 2012, RHR heat exchanger testing has been performed in accordance with an approved TVA procedure in conjunction with quarterly RCIC system surveillance testing. The intent of performing these tests in a back-to-back fashion was to allow the heat input rate from the RCIC turbine exhaust to the suppression pool (torus) to be matched to the removal rate from the suppression pool through the RHR heat exchanger while in the suppression pool cooling mode of operation. A perfect match of the heat input and removal rates would result in no change to the suppression pool temperature over the duration of the test data collection period. This condition would result in optimal steady state RHR (heat exchanger shell side) inlet temperatures during the test and would also serve to reduce the uncertainty associated with the test data. However, in practice, it is not feasible to match the heat input and heat removal rates exactly. Consequently, during the test data collection period there is some suppression pool heating or cooling, even though establishment of test conditions matches heat input and heat removal rates to the extent practical. In conclusion, there is actually no intent to change the suppression pool temperature during the RHR heat exchanger test data collection period.

ENCLOSURE 1 Future RHR heat exchanger performance testing will be performed in a manner similar to or the same as that described above and performed to date.
(i) The data acquisition system for all tests performed since January 2012 was provided to TVA by an outside vendor operating under their own 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance program. This vendor provided the test instrumentation, including data acquisition system. The test instrumentation and data acquisition system is capable of instrumenting two heat exchangers at the same time and still have spares. All instruments and software are labeled and configured for specific use in each test location. This system complies with the requirements listed in the EPRI document TR-107397. A data acquisition software package works with the heat exchanger instrumentation system and produces data files that may be loaded directly into Proto-HX. Personal computers with data collection software are provided. The data collection software is written and validated under the vendor software Quality Assurance program. Time stamped data is collected from each sensor.
The GL 89-13 implementing procedures require the following.
    -    The data acquisition system, including the associated software, shall comply with the guidance in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
    - Computer programs used in the thermal performance analysis shall meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, and 10 CFR 21.
Future RHR heat exchanger performance testing will be performed in a manner similar to or the same as that described above and performed to date, or in a manner that is consistent with the EPRI guidance identified in response (e), above.
(j) The RHR heat exchanger performance testing that has been performed at BFN since January 2012 has used an outside vendor operating under a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance program to provide the test instrumentation, collect and process the data, and provide test reports documenting the results. The data analysis and preparation of vendor test reports are performed by a vendor also operating under a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance Program in accordance with approved procedures that include steps to compare process and tube side heat transfer rates and to statistically evaluate test data such that results account for the uncertainties associated with each test.
The method of calculation follows the EPRI guidelines (see response (e), above) in terms of determining the uncertainty contributors of precision and bias errors for thermal performance test evaluations. The uncertainty analysis methodology in Proto-HX determines the sensitivity coefficients through a numerical approach using the central differencing method (i.e., symmetric uncertainties). The EPRI guideline (see response (e),
above) provides an overview of this approach. The variables considered are the test data (flow rates and temperatures) and the film coefficients.
The GL 89-13 implementing procedures require the following.
    -    The uncertainty analysis methodology shall comply with the approach described in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
    - Computer programs used in the thermal performance analysis shall meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, and 10 CFR 21.
Future RHR heat exchanger performance testing will be performed in a manner similar to or the same as that described above and performed to date.
E1-9

ENCLOSURE 1 (k) The data reduction method for calculating the fouling resistance involves averaging the data from the RHR heat exchanger test to identify nominal values for each parameter.
These nominal values are then analyzed to determine the condition of the heat exchanger with respect to the overall fouling factor. Further analysis of the test data identifies the uncertainty in each parameter measurement. These uncertainties are then used to establish the overall uncertainty in the test result. The test result is then compared to the acceptance criterion to determine if the test is satisfactory.
The data reduction is performed by the vendor under the same processes as described in item (j), above. In the testing that has been performed to date, the vendor calculation follows the heat transfer test method using the heat transfer at design limiting conditions as the performance parameter. This method is outlined in EPRI Test Report 107397, Service Water Heat Exchanger Testing Guidelines, dated March 1998.
These initial testing results (vendor test reports) will behave been revised to recompute the performance parameter, including the performance parameter (fouling resistance) uncertainty, so as to report results consistent with the units specified in the NFPA 805 license condition for the fouling resistance, hr-ft2-&deg;F/Btu. The GL 89-13 implementing procedures require the following.
    -    Data reduction shall comply with the approach described in the EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
Future data reduction methods for calculating the fouling resistance both prior to and following EPU implementation will follow the same or similar data reduction method for calculating the fouling resistance or in a manner that is consistent with the EPRI guidance identified in response (e), above.
(l) In the context of the method of as-found heat-exchanger inspection for determining the number of plugged tubes and the resulting effective heat transfer area, it is noteworthy how this information actually impacts the heat exchanger post-test analysis. The vendor test reports contain the following conservative assumption: It is assumed that all tubes were unobstructed during the test (i.e., none of the tubes were plugged by macro fouling during the test). It is an inherent part of the PROTO-HX method of analysis to distribute the tube-side flow equally to all tubes and to use the specified heat transfer area in the fouling calculation. This assumption is acceptable since lost area due to unknown macrofouling will show up as extra fouling resistance.
The method of as-found heat-exchanger inspection for determining the number of unavailable tubes and the effective heat transfer area is performed in accordance with an approved TVA procedure. An attachment to the procedure provides a GL 89-13 Heat Exchanger Visual Inspection and Evaluation Form. The form requires recording the number of tubes plugged, the number of tubes fully blocked (>90%), and the number of tubes partially obstructed (75% - 90%). Guidance for determining the number of tubes equivalent blocked is that tubes found with >90% of the area obstructed are considered fully blocked and 50% of the tubes with 75% to 90% of the area obstructed are considered fully blocked. The acceptance criterion is the number of tubes plugged, fully blocked or equivalent blocked must be less than the maximum plugging limit. This information on as-found potential tube blockage is only applicable for consideration in determining heat exchanger past-operability for an event where the potential tube blockage was introduced into the system since the performance of the last heat exchanger test. In some cases, this E1-10

ENCLOSURE 1 same as-found blockage could have been present during previous heat exchanger testing.
The consideration of the effects of potential blockages inside the heat exchanger prior to the last heat exchanger performance test is addressed in the first paragraph of this response (item (l)).
EPU implementation will not change the method of as-found heat-exchanger inspection for determining the number of unavailable tubes and the effective heat transfer area.
However, upon EPU implementation, design basis calculations will be revisedacceptance criteria will be included in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), to identify, for any given fouling resistance, the maximum allowable number of tubes that could be are unavailableplugged or otherwise obstructed and still meet the DBA-LOCA system operability limit minimum heat removal requirement. This determination will facilitate a more immediate assessment of the as-found condition of any RHR heat exchanger where the fouling resistance is known or can be projected based on the fouling rate and the as-found number of tubes determined to be fully blocked from the as-found heat exchanger inspection. This acceptance criteria, included in the UFSAR, would only be used for past-operability/functionality determinations.

==1.0   INTRODUCTION==

1.1   Purpose The purpose of this test is to periodically monitor the performance of the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit Residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchangers in accordance with the GL 89-13 program (0-TI-522). The test demonstrates that the overall fouling resistance bounds the values assumed in containment cooling analyses.
Inlet and outlet temperatures and flows are recorded on both the RHR and RHRSW sides of one RHR Heat Exchanger at a time with temporary instrumentation. The data is recorded on a data acquisition system (DAS). Data recorded in this test is analyzed to determine the overall fouling resistance.
1.2   Scope This test applies to all of the RHR heat exchangers. The test is written to test 2 heat exchangers, one at a time, on the same RHR loop during the performance of the procedure.
1.3   Frequency Frequency of this test is determined by 0-TI-522 - Program for Implementing NRC Generic Letter 89-13.
1.4   Conditions A. This test is performed while the unit is in power operation.
B. This test is performed in conjunction with RCIC surveillance testing. RCIC operation provides a heat load to the Suppression Pool for the test.
C. It is ideal to perform this test in cooler seasons when river intake temperature is less than 65&deg;F in order to allow a 20&deg;F, or greater, delta-T between the suppression pool and the RHRSW inlet.
1.5   Applicability A. Performance testing of RHR heat exchangers.

G. Monitoring of available Browns Ferry chemistry reports to verify Closed Cooling Water (CCW) systems are maintained to appropriate Action Levels as specified in EPRI Report 1007820.
6.3   GL 89-13 Implementing Action II- Heat Transfer Testing Action II of the GL 89-13 is paraphrased to read: Conduct a test program to verify the heat transfer capability of all safety-related heat exchangers cooled by service water. Frequent regular maintenance of heat exchangers is acceptable in lieu of testing. "
BFN will maintain an inspection and cleaning program in accordance with the BFN PM Program to verify the heat transfer capability of the safety-related heat exchangers cooled by EECW and RHRSW. The basis for reasonable assurance of adequate heat transfer is based on the condition of the tubes as compared to the instructions and guidance in the inspection criteria found on the inspection form NPG-SPP-09.14-1 [TVA Form 41343] and by comparing the number of plugged, blocked, and partially blocked tubes with the calculated tube plugging limit found in Attachment 1of this procedure. The PMs provide for reassessing this inspection frequency based on the results of inspections, not to exceed five years.
Thermal performance testing was performed in 1994 and 2001 to validate the inspection and cleaning philosophy. The specific BFN actions to implement this for each heat exchanger are listed below. Criteria for inspections is detailed in 0-TPP-ENG-389 and NPG-SPP-09.7.3. See Attachment 2 of this procedure for PM references.

BFN                 Program for Implementing NRC             0-TI-522 Unit 0                      Generic Letter 89-13             Rev. 0007 Page 14 of 26 6.3      GL 89-13 Implementing Action II- Heat Transfer Testing (continued)
NOTE NFPA-805 License Condition Performance testing of the RHR heat exchangers satisfies a license condition described in section 3.9.3.6 of the Safety Evaluation for the transition to a Risk-Informed, Performance-Based Fire Protection Program (NFPA 805) in accordance with 10CFR50.48(c). The implementation of this requirement provides for periodic heat exchanger inspections and performance testing to ensure that the worst fouling resistance, with measurement uncertainty added, is less than 0.001517 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, and the worst tube plugging is less than 4.57% in all RHR heat exchangers.
Other program heat exchangers do not fall under this condition, i.e. inspection and cleaning of program heat exchangers other than the RHR heat exchangers is acceptable.
The NFPA 805 license condition is not a GL 89-13 program commitment, but is being met by revising the GL 89-13 program to perform routine performance testing on BFN RHR Heat Exchangers.
A. The RHR heat exchanger performance testing program will be maintained through the Browns Ferry Nuclear (BFN) Preventive Maintenance (PM) program. Each RHR heat exchanger will be tested periodically at an interval that initially will not exceed five years. The performance testing PMs provide criteria for reassessing the performance testing frequency based upon test results. Additionally, the heat exchangers will be cleaned on an 8-year frequency. This 8-year cleaning frequency is based on supporting eddy current testing, a PM requirement outside of the BFN GL 89-13 program. More frequent cleanings will occur if the fouling rate (as trended by TVA engineering) indicates the need to take corrective actions in order to maintain the heat exchanger condition within the fouling resistance acceptance criteria.
B. Testing will be conducted when seasonal conditions provide the most accurate test results related to river and Torus water differential temperatures. Heat exchangers will be tested in divisional pairs. Tests will be conducted coincident with RCIC quarterly surveillances in order to have a controlled heat addition source for the Torus. Testing intervals will be sequenced such that fouling rates can be assessed and fouling predictions can be made to ensure that heat exchanger fouling does not encroach on the limits specified in the analysis.

C. Additionally, the heat exchangers will be cleaned no less than once every 8 years. This 8-year cleaning frequency is based on supporting eddy current testing, a PM requirement outside of the BFN GL 89-13 program. More frequent cleanings will occur if heat exchanger conditions (as trended by TVA engineering) warrant such actions.
D. Performance testing is conducted in a manner consistent with the guidance described in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Testing Guidelines.
E. Diesel Generator Coolers - Inspect and clean the cooling water side of each Diesel Generator cooler.

6.4   GL 89-13 Implementing Action III - Routine Inspection and Maintenance Action III of the GL 89-13 is paraphrased to read: Ensure by establishing a routine inspection and maintenance program for open-cycle service water system piping and components that corrosion, erosion, protective coating failure, silting, and bio-fouling cannot degrade the performance of the safety-related systems supplied by service water. "
A. Flow monitoring is performed on a periodic basis as described in Action I.
B. RHRSW and EECW systems receive inspection and cleaning as described in Action II.

C. The RHR Heat exchangers have coated inner surfaces [waterboxes and floating heads] and are required to be inspected in order to verify coating conditions are acceptable. The RHR heat exchanger coatings inspections are performed under the PM program in accordance with 0-TPP-ENG-389 and NPG-SPP-09.14 using TVA form 41313.
D. Corrosion coupons are installed and monitored (0-TI-154).
6.5   GL 89-13 Implementing Action IV - Single Failure Walkdown Action IV of the GL 89-13 is paraphrased to read: Confirm that the service water system will perform its intended function in accordance with the licensing basis for the plant."

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 8 Section 2.6.5.2 of PUSAR fourth and fifth paragraphs under heading "Large Break LOCA Short-Term Phase ECCS NPSH [Net Positive Suction Head]," states:
As stated above, the actual delivered pump flow rate will be between the safety analysis flow rate (where there is positive NPSH margin) and the pump run-out flow rate (where there may be negative NPSH margin). Because it is assumed that the operators take actions to control the RHR and CS pumps at ten minutes (see following subsection for evaluation of Large Break LOCA Long-Term Phase ECCS NPSH), this condition, should it occur, would exist for no more than ten minutes.
During this ten minute period it is prudent to address two aspects of pump operation at these conditions: (1) whether the pump(s) could actually be operating with less than NPSHr [NPSH required]3%; and (2) whether the pump(s) could sustain any damage during this ten minute period. The SECY-11-0014 guidance (Reference 97) addresses these two concerns and the Boiling Water Reactors Owners Group (BWROG) provided in-depth assessments in two BWROG reports for the Browns Ferry RHR pumps: "Pump Operation at Reduced NPSHa [NPSH available] Conditions" (Reference 100) and "BWROG CVIC Report Task 4, Operation in Maximum Erosion Rate Zone" (Reference 101).
The above paragraphs gives the impression that the NPSHa is less than NPSHr3% (i.e., pumps may be operating with a negative NPSH margin during the short-term). This is in conflict with data in Tables 2.6-4a and the graphs presented in Figures 2.6-11a and 2.6-12a, which show that both RHR and CS pumps have positive margin with respect to effective required NPSH (NPSHreff). In case the above tables and the figures are correct, it is not clear why the assessment in the BWR Owners' Group report "Containment Accident Pressure Committee (344), Task 3 - Pump Operation at Reduced NPSHa [available NPSH] Conditions (Sulzer Model CVIC Pump)," BWROG-TP-13-009, Revision 0, June 2013 (ADAMS Accession No. ML14077A097), is used to justify pump operation with a negative NPSH margin during the short-term. Confirm that in the short-term, with runout flow rates, the RHR and CS pumps operate with positive NPSH margin with respect to NPSHreff.
TVA Response:
During the short-term operating period (initial ten minutes), credited pumps, defined as those performing the safety function of delivering flow to the reactor core, would be operating with positive net positive suction head (NPSH) margin (NPSHa > NPSHeff).

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 14 Refer to Section 2.6.2 of PUSAR regarding the postulated break in a 4-inch jet pump instrument line nozzle at EPU conditions, and UFSAR Section 12.2.2.6.
UFSAR Section 12.2.2.6, eighth paragraph describes the effect of jet forces resulting from the 4-inch break line as follows:
An analysis has also been performed of the effects of jet forces resulting from a double-ended break of the 4-inch line, assuming the jet forces from the break were to impinge directly on the removable plug. The resulting load would be 11 kips [kilo pounds], which is less than the capability of the locking bars and hinges, the capability of the shield wall, and the capability of the reactor vessel and its support skirt.
Provide a description of the analysis and results of the effect of the jet forces on the removable plug from a double-ended break of the 4-inch line under the most limiting thermal-hydraulic conditions in the reactor at EPU conditions. Justify that the reactor conditions (such as fluid density, jet velocity, etc.) assumed in the analysis are most limiting. What is the load capability of the locking bars and hinges, the capability of the shield wall, and the capability of the reactor vessel and its support skirt? Confirm these load capabilities bound the loads resulting from the jet forces from the double-ended break of the 4-inch line under EPU conditions.
TVA Response:
The calculation that formed the basis for the current UFSAR Section 12.2.2.6 evaluation concerning the effect of the jet impingement loading from the 4-inch jet pump (JP) instrument line break was not located. The current UFSAR Section 12.2.2.6 discussion concerning the jet impingement loading for the 4-inch JP instrument line break was the incorporation of the TVA response to Atomic Energy Commission question 12.18 during the original licensing of BFN.
TVA performed an evaluation for the assumed instantaneous double-ended break of the 4-inch JP instrument nozzle. This included recreation of the jet force loads at various reactor conditions consistent with the conditions shown in Section 2.6.2 of EPU LAR Attachment 6, Power Uprate Safety Analysis Report (PUSAR). The evaluation included an additional condition for 102% of the BFN original licensed thermal power of 3293 Megawatts-thermal (MWt). These conditions are shown in Table SCVB-RAI 14-1.

Fj =    Ae (CT*Po - Pamb)      where:
Fj =    Jet impingement force (pound force (lbf)),
Ae =    Break area (square inches),
CT =    Thrust coefficient - based on method described in Appendix B, Section (c) of Reference 1 (Henry-Fauske model for subcooled water),
Po = Stagnation pressure at break (reactor dome pressure plus water head above break) (psia)
Pamb = Ambient pressure (psia) - for the break analysis a constant ambient pressure of 14.7 psia inside the sacrificial shield wall is assumed.
The effect of RFWT is to lower the enthalpy in the reactor pressure vessel downcomer region.
This results in the determination of a higher thrust coefficient and higher calculated jet impingement force. The summary of the jet impingement force calculations for the various conditions are shown in Table SCVB-RAI 14-2.

Figure SCVB-RAI 14-2 shows the dimensions of the JP instrument nozzle, safe end and seal penetration. Observation of the two figures shows that the opening in the shield wall door has a diameter of approximately two feet and the diameter of the JP instrument nozzle safe end is approximately four inches in diameter. The distance between the JP instrument nozzle safe end weld and the shield door shielding inside surface is approximately 8.5 inches. Therefore, it is possible that the jet from the JP instrument nozzle safe end break would not impinge on the shielding or the door assembly if the jet does not expand sufficiently to have the outer edge of jet impinge of the shielding or door assembly. The jet area was calculated in order to determine the amount of force applied to the shielding and shield door assemblies. The calculation was performed using the methodology contained in Appendix C of Reference 1 for a circumferential break with full separation. The results of the calculation show that the jet radius for all break statepoints (See Table SCVB-RAI 14-2 for statepoints) is less than distance from the JP nozzle centerline to the edge of the hole in the shield door.
Consequently, the jet would not impinge upon the shielding or the door assembly and the jet impingement force can be assumed to be zero.
It was conservatively assumed that the jet expands such that it touches the inside surface of the hole in the shielding and door and a skin friction drag load acts on the door assembly. The drag force was calculated using a conservative skin friction drag coefficient, Cd =0.1, which is taken as a factor of 10 larger than the largest drag coefficient for a flat plate. The drag load on the shield doors for each condition is shown in Table SCVB-RAI 14-3.

The shield door including the latch, hinges and pins are constructed from SA-283 Grade B steel. The material properties for SA-283 Grade B at the maximum average drywell temperature of 150&deg;F are as follows.
E (Elastic modulus): 29x106 psi Sy (Yield Strength): 25.4 ksi Su (Tensile Strength): 50 ksi Maximum Elongation: 0.28 Density: 0.280 lbf/in3 Poissons Ratio: 0.3 Flow Stress: (Sy + Su)/2 = 37700 psi The shield door area from Figure SCVB-RAI 14-1 is 1668.9 square inches. The maximum jet force is applied in the structural analysis as a static pressure load of 635/1668.9 = 0.38 psi.
The acceptance criteria for the shield wall doors is that the doors do not fail and become missiles in the primary containment. The structural evaluation acceptance criteria is that the von Mises total strain (elastic + plastic) is less than the maximum elongation of 28% specified in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Code for SA-283, Grade B.
The results of the structural evaluation show that the total von Mises strain for the shield door latch is 0.001634 and the total von Mises strain for the hinge and pin assembly is 0.000841, which is below the maximum elongation value of 0.28. Therefore, the door can withstand the jet impingement load for the double ended break of the 4-inch JP instrument line at EPU conditions.
E1-16

ENCLOSURE 1 Evaluation of Shield Wall, Capability of the Reactor Vessel and the Reactor Vessel Support Skirt The yield point of the ASTM A36 structural members in the shield wall is 36 ksi. The load capability of the shield wall is a minimum of 19 psi. TVA confirms these load capabilities bound the loads resulting from the jet forces from the double-ended break of the 4-inch JP instrument line under EPU conditions.
Figure SCVB-RAI 14-3 shows the orientation of the JP instrument nozzle with respect to the recirculation system inlet and outlet nozzles. Observation of Figure SCVB-RAI 14-3 shows that the JP instrument nozzle is located at an elevation below that of the recirculation inlet and outlet nozzles. The 4-inch JP nozzle is significantly smaller than the recirculation inlet and outlet nozzles. Therefore, any forces and moments on the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) and the RPV support skirt from a break of the JP instrument nozzle will be bounded by the forces and moments developed from a break in the recirculation suction or discharge nozzle. The bounding jet forces used in the BFN EPU structural evaluation of the RPV are from the recirculation outlet nozzle. Table 2.2-6 of the BFN EPU LAR Attachment 6 shows that the ASME code limit stress for the RPV support skirt is 80.1 ksi and the ASME code limit stress for the RPV is 80 ksi. Since the EPU stresses reported in Table 2.2-6 of EPU LAR Attachment 6 are below the ASME code limit, the loading from a double-ended break of the 4-inch JP instrument nozzle under EPU conditions will not result in an overload condition for the RPV support skirt or the reactor vessel. TVA confirms that the load capabilities of the RPV and RPV support skirt bound the loads resulting from the jet forces from the double-ended break of the 4-inch JP instrument line under EPU conditions.

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 24 Section 2.5.3.2 of PUSAR under heading "Browns Ferry Current Licensing Basis" states:
Browns Ferry's current licensing basis regarding GL 89-13 is discussed in TVA's response to the NRC by letter dated March 16, 1990, "Response to Generic Letter 89-13 Service Water Problems Affecting Safety-Related Equipment.
In the TVA response letter to GL 89-13, dated March 16, 1990, the response to NRC recommended action II states:
Inspect and clean the cooling water side of the RHR heat exchangers at least once per cycle.
In Reference 7, response to SCVB-RAI 1 (b), under title "Frequency of Monitoring -
Performance Testing," states:
Each RHR heat exchanger will have been performance tested at least once and will be tested periodically at an interval that initially will not exceed five years.
In Reference 7, response to SCVB-RAI 1 (b), under title "Frequency of Monitoring - Visual Inspection and Cleaning" for EPU implementation states:
Each RHR heat exchanger will be cleaned once every 8-years or more frequently if the trended fouling rate indicates the need to take corrective actions in order to maintain the heat exchanger condition within the fouling resistance acceptance criteria.
As stated above, the inspection and cleaning interval of the RHR heat exchangers in TVA's response to GL 89-13 was at least once every cycle (i.e., at least 2 years) as committed in TVA letter dated March 16, 1990. Currently the inspection and cleaning is interval is 4 years. The inspection and cleaning interval after EPU implementations is being proposed to increase to 8 years.
: a.      Provide the basis for increasing the inspection and cleaning interval from 2 years to the current interval of 4-years, and
: b.      Provide the basis for the proposed increase in interval from 4 years to 8 years after EPU implementation. Justify the increase in intervals based on the trending history of the previous as-found inspection and cleanliness condition results of the RHR heat exchangers, such as the as-found number of partial and wholly plugged tubes, and/or any other parameter that reflected the cleanliness of the as-found heat exchanger.
TVA Response:
: a.      The basis for increasing the inspection and cleaning interval for the RHR heat exchangers as provided in the commitment change described in Enclosure 5 of Reference 1 was as follows.
E1-21

ENCLOSURE 1 A Chemical Treatment Program was put into service in September of 1996. The chemicals are dispersed throughout the RHRSW System to control corrosion, clam infestation, and water fouling. Inspections conducted, after implementation of the Chemical Treatment Program and prior to submittal of the commitment change described in Reference 1, showed a relatively small amount of debris and indicated that the heat transfer surfaces were in good condition. Based on the Chemical Treatment Program and the previous inspection results, TVA revised the inspection and cleaning commitment, as described in the Reference 1 letter, to the following, "Inspect and clean the cooling water side of these heat exchangers periodically as determined by the preventive maintenance (PM) program." Four years was chosen to be the new inspection and cleaning frequency for the RHR heat exchangers at that time based on the PM program results.
Upon implementation of EPU, the frequency of inspection and cleaning will be as described in the response to SCVB-RAI 24b. below.
: b. The inspection and cleaning frequency will be determined by a Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program being developed for implementation following EPU and will be maintained through the BFN PM Program.
Each RHR heat exchanger has been tested at least once prior to June 16, 2016.
Subsequent performance testing of each RHR heat exchanger will be performed periodically at an interval of nominally four years, not to exceed five years. The performance testing acceptance criteria will be used to demonstrate margin between the actual heat removal capability assumed in the containment analyses because it assumes more heat exchanger tubes are plugged in a given heat exchanger.
Performance test results, in conjunction with trended fouling rate, will be used to determine if the margin to the acceptance criteria will be exceeded before the next scheduled inspection and cleaning. The heat exchangers will be cleaned on a maximum frequency of eight years. This 8-year cleaning frequency is based on supporting PM-required eddy current testing of the RHR heat exchanger tubes. More frequent RHR heat exchanger inspection and cleaning will occur if the fouling rate, as trended, indicates the need to take corrective actions in order to maintain the heat exchanger condition within the fouling resistance acceptance criteria. These requirements will be included in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report as described in the response to SCVB-RAI 26.

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 25 In Reference 4, the implementation Item 49, which is a license condition states:
Revise the program that monitors BFN Residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchanger performance for consistency with the assumptions of the NFPA
[National Fire Protection Association] 805 Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) analysis. The monitoring program shall include verification that the tested worst fouling resistance, with measurement uncertainty added, of all BFN Units 1, 2, and 3 RHR heat exchangers is less than the design value of 0.001517 hr-ft2 -
         &deg;F/BTU and the worst tube plugging is less than 4.57 percent.
Provide the proposed revision to the above licensee condition for EPU implementation including the frequency of cleaning and testing of the RHR heat exchangers.
TVA Response:
The NFPA 805 license condition associated with implementation item 49 is proposed to be deleted. The RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program has already been established as required by the NFPA 805 license condition. These NFPA 805 licensing condition requirements have been incorporated into the applicable implementing procedures.
Copies of these implementing procedures, 0-TI-322, RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Testing, and 0-TI-522, Program for Implementing NRC Generic Letter 89-13, are provided as part of the revised response to SCVB-RAI 1, included in this EPU LAR supplement.
In order to support deletion of the NFPA 805 license condition associated with implementation item 49, it is proposed to add RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program requirements to the Administrative Controls section of the BFN Technical Specifications (TS).
Specifically, a new TS 5.5.14, Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program, is proposed to be added. This TS would require the establishment of a program to ensure the RHR heat exchangers are maintained in a condition that meets or exceeds the minimum performance capability assumed in the EPU containment analyses, which support not taking credit for containment accident pressure in the NPSH analyses. The TS would require RHR heat exchanger performance testing and overall uncertainty in the fouling resistance to be performed in accordance with the guidelines in the EPRI report, EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Guidelines, dated May 2015. The TS requires the program to include the following.
: a. Provisions for periodically monitoring RHR heat exchanger performance, including frequency of monitoring and methodology for considering uncertainty of the result.
: b. Acceptance criteria for RHR heat exchanger worst fouling resistance and number of plugged tubes.
: c. Limitations and compensatory actions if degraded performance is observed.
: d. Controls for changes to program requirements.
The TS would require the details of the program to be described in the UFSAR.
E1-23

ENCLOSURE 1 Placing the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program in the BFN TS, with detail of the program included in the UFSAR, provides assurance BFN RHR heat exchanger performance will be maintained consistent with BFN analysis and licensing bases. Changes to the BFN analysis and licensing bases associated with the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program details included in the UFSAR will be controlled in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, tests, and experiments. The proposed program details to be included in the UFSAR are provided in the response to SCVB-RAI 26.
Including the fouling resistance and tube plugging acceptance criteria in the UFSAR enables BFN to address the impact of potential heat exchanger degraded conditions, associated fouling resistance or tube plugging, on past operability/functionality within the TVA CAP. For example, basing thermal performance evaluations supporting past operability/functionality could be based on actual plant conditions that existed in the past (e.g., number of tubes plugged). The current NFPA 805 license condition, with explicit limits, does not facilitate this type of past thermal performance evaluation.
The proposed Technical Specification 5.5.14 wording is as follows.
5.5.14      Residual Heat Removal (RHR) Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program This program is established to ensure that the RHR heat exchangers are maintained in a condition that meets or exceeds the minimum performance capability assumed in containment analyses, which support not taking credit for containment accident pressure in the NPSH analyses. The RHR heat exchanger testing and determination of overall uncertainty in the fouling resistance shall be in accordance with the guidelines in EPRI report, EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015. This program establishes the following attributes.
: a. The program establishes provisions to periodically monitor RHR heat exchanger thermal performance. The program includes frequency of monitoring and the methodology considers uncertainty of the result.
: b. The program establishes and controls acceptance criteria for RHR heat exchanger worst fouling resistance and number of plugged tubes.
: c. The program establishes limitations and allows for compensatory actions if degraded performance is observed.
: d. Changes to the program shall be made under appropriate administrative review.
: e. Details of the program including program limitations, compensatory actions for degraded performance, testing method, data acquisition method, data reduction method, overall uncertainty determination method, thermal performance analysis, acceptance criteria, and computer programs used that meet the 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, and 10 CFR 21 requirements are described in the UFSAR.
E1-24

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 26 Provide the proposed revision to the GL 89-13 response applicable to the RHR heat exchanger for EPU implementation.
TVA Response:
The Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN) maintains a residual heat removal (RHR) Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program designed to ensure the heat transfer capability of the RHR heat exchangers meet or exceed the minimum performance capability assumed in containment analyses, which support not taking credit for containment accident pressure in the NPSH analyses. The scope of the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program is limited to the RHR heat exchangers. The program is implemented by the associated Generic Letter (GL) 89-13 program procedure. Requirements of the GL 89-13 program procedure are implemented through the BFN preventive maintenance (PM) program.
Upon EPU implementation, the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program is proposed to be included in the BFN Technical Specifications. RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program requirements will be described in the UFSAR. The changes to the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program for EPU are summarized below and are reflective of the revised EPU LAR Attachment 39. The following details will be reflected in the UFSAR.
: 1.      The EPU DBA-LOCA minimum required heat removal rate is 80,136,000 Btu/hour (hr) per heat exchanger with two heat exchangers in service. The EPU fire event minimum required heat removal rate is 124,966,800 Btu/hr with one heat exchanger in service.
: 2.      The EPU thermal performance test acceptance criteria for an RHR heat exchanger is 0.001562 hr-ft2-F/Btu with no more than 77 tubes (4.57% of 1700 tubes) mechanically plugged. The test acceptance criteria is used to demonstrate margin between actual heat removal capability and minimum required heat removal capability assumed in the containment analyses because it assumes more tubes plugged than the actual number of tubes plugged in the given heat exchanger. Performance test results in conjunction with trended fouling rate, is used to determine if the margin to the acceptance criteria will be exceeded before the next scheduled inspection and cleaning.
: 3.      The nominal (measured) test result (fouling resistance) including the test and measurement uncertainty will be used for comparison to the acceptance criteria.
: 4.      The program includes the following requirements:
: a.      Each RHR heat exchanger was performance tested at least once prior to the NFPA 805 implementation date, June 16, 2016.
: b.      Upon EPU implementation, each RHR heat exchanger will be performance tested at a nominal interval of four years, not to exceed five years.
: c.      The RHR heat exchangers will be periodically cleaned at an interval that will not exceed 8 years. This 8-year cleaning frequency is based on supporting PM-required eddy current testing of the RHR heat exchanger tubes. More frequent E1-25

ENCLOSURE 1 RHR heat exchanger inspection and cleaning will occur if the fouling rate (as trended) indicates the need to take corrective actions in order to maintain the heat exchanger condition within the fouling resistance acceptance criteria.
: 5. Thermal performance testing results, including uncertainty, is trended consistent with ASME OM 2015, Part 21, Section 6.10, to facilitate determining fouling rate. BFN takes exception to the second paragraph of Section 6.10.2 in that the test program currently compares the test fouling resistance results to the acceptance criteria. BFN did not trend the fouling resistance for a minimum of three tests or monitoring points prior to comparison to the acceptance criteria.
: 6. Temporary surface mounted temperature instrumentation for RHR and RHRSW inlet and outlet piping meets the guidance provided in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
: 7. Temporary differential pressure (DP) instrumentations connected to the instrument taps from the permanently installed RHRSW flow orifices and RHR flow nozzles meet the guidance provided in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
: 8. Temporary instrumentation includes a temporary data acquisition system (DAS). The DAS software translates instrument output into data files that may be loaded into analytical software. Time stamped data is collected from each temporary instrument sensor. The DAS, including the associated software, complies with the guidance provided in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
: 9. Temporary instruments are calibrated against standards traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology or compared to nationally or internationally recognized consensus standards.
: 10. Test data is analyzed in accordance with EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015. The analysis determines the overall fouling resistance for the heat exchanger and also determines the associated uncertainty in the test result (fouling resistance).
: 11. The uncertainty analysis methodology complies with the approach described in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
: 12. Data reduction complies with the approach described in EPRI 3002005340, Service Water Heat Exchanger Test Guidelines, May 2015.
: 13. Computer programs used in the thermal performance analysis are required to meet the 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, and 10 CFR 21 requirements. PROTO-HX is the computer program used for thermal performance analyses in the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program.
E1-26

ENCLOSURE 1
: 14. Test results in conjunction with trended fouling rate are projected and compared to the test fouling resistance acceptance criterion to schedule the next performance of the cleaning or testing PM in a manner consistent with ASME OM 2015, Section 9, Acceptance Criteria.
: 15. Compensatory measures will be established based upon actual plant conditions.
Compensatory measures include entering the condition into the TVA CAP, cleaning of the heat exchangers after inspections, determining if more frequent inspections and cleaning are required, and evaluating past operability/functionality when tube plugging and macrofouling acceptance criteria from inspection procedures are not met. The methodology for performing as-found and as-left inspections are provided in TVA Standard Programs and Processes procedures. As-left inspections are procedurally required and ensure that tubes found blocked/obstructed by macrofouling will not be left in the as-found condition. The number of tubes found obstructed by macrofouling during heat exchanger (as-found) inspections is compared to acceptance criteria for the total number of tubes that can be mechanically plugged, which is identified in implementing procedures. Upon EPU implementation acceptance criteria will also be provided for the total number of tubes that can be blocked/obstructed (includes tubes mechanically plugged and tubes obstructed by macrofouling) for a given fouling resistance (see Table SCVB-RAI 26). These acceptance criteria are used to determine whether a subsequent engineering evaluation is required and are limited to use in evaluating only as-found conditions. Degraded conditions are entered into the TVA CAP.
: 16. Changes to the program requirements above will be controlled in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59, Changes, tests, and experiments. Change to the program requirements may be made without prior NRC approval provided the changes do not require a change to the Technical Specification requirements and the changes do not require NRC approval pursuant to 10 CFR 50.59.

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 30 As per Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) Report 107397, in the nuclear industry, test uncertainty is often determined with 95 percent coverage. Per American Society of Mechanical Engineers Operation and Maintenance (ASME OM)-21, "A 95% confidence level shall be applied to the calculated result for the purpose of comparing the testing or monitoring results to the acceptance criteria."
: a. Provide a detailed discussion of how the uncertainty analysis approach described in Section 3.9.2 of EPRI Report 107397 was applied in determining the fouling resistance results for the 2C, 3A, 3C, 2C, and 2A RHR heat exchangers given Table 4 of Reference 6.
: b. The fouling resistance result that should be less than the acceptance criteria is defined as [fouling resistance result = measured fouling factor + test and measurement uncertainty]. Provide the values of test and measurement uncertainties that were added to the measured fouling resistances for determining the fouling resistances of the RHR heat exchangers given in Table 4 of Reference 6.
TVA Response:
: a. The uncertainty analysis approach is addressed in the response to SCVB RAI-32.
Table 4 of the EPU LAR Attachment 39 previously included test result fouling resistances and associated heat transfer capability for comparison to the fouling resistance acceptance criteria for the RHR heat exchanger performance tests that had been completed at the time of the submittal of the BFN EPU LAR. Since that time, all 12 BFN RHR heat exchangers have been tested. The results of these tests are provided in the response to SCVB RAI-34. EPU LAR Attachment 39 is also revised in this EPU LAR Supplement to include the test information provided in the response to SCVB RAI-34. The updated fouling resistance results reflect the application of the uncertainty approach addressed in the response to SCVB RAI-32.
: b. The testing fouling resistance and the uncertainty in fouling resistance are provided in Tables SCVB RAI-34-1, SCVB RAI-34-2 and SCVB RAI-34-3. The terms testing fouling resistance and the uncertainty in fouling resistance in Tables SCVB RAI-34-1, SCVB RAI-34-2 and SCVB RAI-34-3 are equivalent to the terms measured fouling factor and test and measurement uncertainty, respectively, in SCVB RAI-30b. As reflected in Tables SCVB RAI-34-1, SCVB RAI-34-2, and SCVB RAI-34-3, the fouling resistance results (test fouling resistance + uncertainty in fouling resistance) are less than the EPU acceptance criteria for fouling resistance.
As discussed above, Table 4 of EPU LAR Attachment 39 previously included test result fouling resistances and associated heat transfer capability for comparison to the fouling resistance acceptance criteria for the RHR heat exchanger performance tests that had been completed at the time of the submittal of the BFN EPU LAR. Since that time, all twelve BFN RHR heat exchangers have been tested. The results of these tests are provided in the response to SCVB RAI-34. EPU LAR Attachment 39 is also revised in this EPU LAR Supplement to include the test information provided in the response to SCVB RAI-34.

ENCLOSURE 1 SCVB-RAI 32 TVA, in response to SCVB RAl-1(e), states that the performance testing will be conducted consistent with the guidance described in EPRI 3002005340, "Service Water Heat Exchanger Testing Guidelines," May 2015.
The response to SCVB RAl-1 (j) states:
The data analysis and preparation of vendor test reports are performed by a vendor also operating under a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B Quality Assurance Program in accordance with approved procedures that include steps to compare process and tube side heat transfer rates and to statistically evaluate test data such that results conservatively account for the uncertainties associated with each test. The method of calculation follows the EPRI guidelines (see response (e), above) in terms of determining the uncertainty contributors of precision and bias errors for thermal performance test evaluations. The uncertainty analysis methodology in PROTO-HX determines the sensitivity coefficients through a numerical approach using the central differencing method (i.e., symmetric uncertainties). The EPRI guideline (see response (e), above) provides an overview of this approach. The variables considered are the test data (flow rates and temperatures) and the film coefficients.
Provide the following information:
: a. Describe the statistical evaluation method of the test data with discussion of how the uncertainty analysis methodology described in Chapter 4 of EPRI 3002005340 is implemented for evaluating the Random Standard Uncertainty and Systematic Standard Uncertainty combined together.
: b. Justify that the Combined Standard Uncertainty (combination of Random Standard Uncertainty and Systematic Standard Uncertainty) in the test result is conservative as mentioned in the above response.
TVA Response:
: a. BFN thermal performance testing of RHR Heat Exchangers was conducted and evaluated following the guidelines of EPRI TR-107397. EPRI TR-107397 was updated in 2015 and issued as EPRI 3002005340. In the future, BFN will conduct thermal performance tests of the RHR heat exchangers following the guidelines of EPRI 3002005340. Both of these EPRI guidelines describe methods to reduce the test data to a set of nominal values and estimate the test uncertainty at a 95% confidence interval using statistical analysis. The methodology used in conducting the BFN tests and performing the test data statistical analysis relies on a combination of hand calculations and the software program PROTO-HX.
A detailed discussion of the test data statistical evaluation method, including discussion of how the Random Standard Uncertainty and Systematic Standard Uncertainty are combined using the uncertainty analysis methodology from Chapter 4 of EPRI 3002005340, is provided in Zachry Nuclear, Inc. Engineering Evaluation 16-E04, E1-30

ENCLOSURE 1 Description of BFN RHR Heat Exchanger Test Data Evaluation, Revision 1 (see Enclosures 7 and 8 of this EPU LAR Supplement).
: b. The EPRI guidance is based on the ASME Performance Test Codes, specifically, ASME PTC 12.5-2000, Single Phase Heat Exchangers and ASME PTC 19.1-1985 Part 1, Measurement Uncertainty: Instruments and Apparatus (replaced by ASME PTC 19.1-2005, Test Uncertainty). Section 2.6.3 of ASME PTC 19.1-1985, Part 1 contains the following statements:
Monte Carlo simulation of the uncertainty intervals has been used to generate approximate coverage values based on assuming various bias error distributions, bias limits, and precision indices. The results of such studies follow:
UADD provides approximately 99% coverage while URSS provides approximately 95% coverage when neither bias errors nor precision errors are negligible compared to the other.
If either the bias error or the precision error is negligible compared to the other, both UADD and URSS provide 95%
coverage.
An uncertainty analysis at another confidence level might be done in a manner similar to the 95% analysis. For example, a coverage of approximately 90% might be achieved by judging bias errors on a 9-out-of-10 basis, using Student ts based on the 90% confidence level, and using the RSS model. However, this method has not been demonstrated by Monte Carlo simulation at this time.
The statistical analysis techniques described in EPRI TR-107397 and EPRI 3002005340 are based on the methods described in ASME PTC 19.1. The uncertainty analyses that were used to evaluate test data using PROTO-HX is consistent with these methods and are based on a root-sum-of-squares (RSS) method at a 95% confidence interval. The 95% confidence interval is achieved by application of the two-tailed Students t score to the random uncertainty terms. The test report uncertainties determined using the EPRI methodology for all 14 tests are reported in EPU LAR Attachment 39, Tables 5, 6 and 7.
Therefore, the Combined Standard Uncertainty (combination of Random Standard Uncertainty and Systematic Standard Uncertainty) in the test result reflect a methodology to produce a 95% confidence interval. It is this 95% confidence interval that was characterized as conservative in the response to SCVB-RAI 1(j).

(3)    During a July, 2013 inspection of a Residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchanger, macrofouling of the inlet side of the heat exchanger from relic Asiatic clamshells was identified. The corrective actions included adding frequent cleaning of the RHRSW Pump Pit to the PM program. A March 18, 2015 inspection of RHR heat exchanger 2C, which found 305 tubes potentially fully obstructed, was the last of the 12 heat exchangers inspected subsequent to the October, 2013 RHRSW Pump Pit cleaning. That is, it was the last inspection which could have found shells that had been introduced into the heat exchanger prior to the October, 2013 RHRSW Pump Pit cleaning. The previous cleaning of RHR heat exchanger 2C was performed in January, 2011. RHR heat exchangers which have been inspected more than once, subsequent to performing the RHRSW Pump Pit cleaning PM, have shown a significant reduction in the number of shells found. This provides objective evidence that the RHRSW Pump Pit cleaning PM is effective in reducing the accumulation of shells found during subsequent RHR Heat Exchanger inspections. The issue which caused 305 tubes to be plugged is historical and the corrective actions associated with shells in the RHRSW Pump Pit have resolved the issue.

NEDO-33860 Revision 0 Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public) effects of EPUs. Section 6.7 of the CLTR addresses the effect of EPU on the fire protection program. The results of this evaluation are described below.
As explicitly stated in Section 6.7 of the CLTR, ((
                                                                                                 ))
Therefore, the reactor and containment responses and operator actions will be evaluated on a plant-specific basis for EPU.
This section addresses the effect of EPU on the fire protection program, fire suppression and detection systems, and reactor and containment system responses to postulated fire events.
Once the NFPA 805 (Reference 66) fire protection transition is implemented, Browns Ferry will meet all CLTR dispositions. The topics addressed in this evaluation are:
Browns Ferry Topic                          CLTR Disposition Result Meets CLTR Fire Suppression and Detection Systems                   Plant Specific Disposition Meets CLTR Operator Response Time                                   Plant Specific Disposition Meets CLTR Peak Cladding Temperature                                Plant Specific Disposition Meets CLTR Vessel Water Level                                       Plant Specific Disposition Meets CLTR Suppression Pool Temperature                             Plant Specific Disposition The higher decay heat associated with EPU results in higher heat input into the suppression pool which, without mitigation, will result in higher suppression pool temperatures. The higher decay heat may also result in lower vessel water levels or higher Peak Cladding Temperatures (PCTs),
depending on the plant-specific analysis basis. As a result of these effects, fire suppression and detection systems, operator response time, peak clad temperature (PCT), and suppression pool temperature need to be addressed.                          implemented Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) is implementing the Nuclear Energy Institute methodology NEI 04-02, Revision 2, Guidance for Implementing a Risk-informed, Performance-based Fire Protection Program Under 10 CFR 50.48(c) (NEI 04-02) (Reference 67), to transition Browns 2-205

Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN) Units 1, 2 and 3 from its current fire protection licensing basis to the new requirements as outlined in NFPA 805. The BFN NFPA 805 Fire Safe Shutdown Analysis consists of a deterministic analysis and a performance based analysis. The deterministic analysis (NFPA 805 Section 4.2.3) identifies and evaluates one success path for each fire area to meet the nuclear safety performance criteria of Section 1.5. Section 2.5.1.4.2, Fire Event, addresses the deterministic analysis. For instances where the nuclear safety performance criteria are not met, a performance based analysis (NFPA 805 Section 4.2.4) is performed to demonstrate that risk is acceptable and that defense in depth and safety margin are maintained. The performance based analysis is addressed in LAR Attachment 44.
Safe Shutdown Systems, equipment, and compensatory measures will be sufficient to support EPU. EPU is found to not affect the elements of the fire protection program related to: (1) fire suppression and detection systems, (2) fire zones/areas, (3) fire barriers, and (4) fire protection responsibilities of plant personnel. Administrative controls, associated with fire protection in the Technical Specifications, the Fire Protection Report, and the Nuclear QA Plan, will be adequate for EPU conditions.
As a risk reduction action in the NFPA 805 Transition LAR (Reference 65), a non-safety Emergency High Pressure Makeup Pump (EHPMP) will be installed. The EHPMP will supply water to the RPV from the CST. Injecting with this pump will also add additional volume to the suppression pool. The EHPMP will not be credited for Containment Accident Pressure elimination; however, the analysis shows that a net positive suction head improvement for the safe shutdown pumps would be realized. (See Section 2.6.5.2) Other EPU modifications will be assessed and assured not to adversely affect the ability to achieve and maintain the fuel in a safe and stable condition in the event of a fire.      A Original NFP 805 analyses were performed at EPU conditions and therefore operator action times cannot be compared to CLTP conditions. To ensure that PCT remains less than the acceptance criterion in the most limiting scenario, one LPCI pump must be manually aligned for injection within 20 minutes. The EPU requires no new operator actions for fire safe shutdown of the plant and there are no actions required inside the primary containment.
The reactor and containment responses to the postulated fire events at EPU conditions are described in Section 2.5.1.4.2. The results show that for the limiting thermal-hydraulic cases, peak fuel cladding temperature, vessel water level, and suppression pool temperature meet the acceptance criteria and there is sufficient time for the operators to perform the necessary actions to meet the NFPA 805 requirement to achieve and maintain the fuel in a safe and stable condition in the event of a fire.
Therefore, once the NFPA 805 fire protection transition is implemented, Browns Ferry will meet all CLTR dispositions.
2.5.1.4.2 Fire Event The limiting NFPA 805 fire events were analyzed under EPU conditions. The fuel heat-up analysis was performed using the NRC accepted AREVA LOCA methodology 2-206

NEDO-33860 Revision 0 Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public)
(RELAX/HUXY). The containment analysis was performed using the GEH SHEX model.
These analyses determined the effect of EPU on fuel cladding integrity, reactor vessel integrity, and containment integrity as a result of the fire event. The two bounding cases described below are identified as Case 1 and Case 4. See Tables 2.5-1, 2.5-2, and 2.5-3 for the inputs and results of the fire event analyses.
Case 1: The bounding safe shutdown case for PCT has Multiple Spurious Operation (MSO) of 11 of the 13 MSRVs which depressurize the reactor, and one RHR pump aligned in the LPCI/ASDC mode at 20 minutes. The analysis shows that the calculated PCT of 1,330&deg;F is acceptable from a deterministic perspective (< 1,500&deg;F) (See FUSAR Section 2.5.1.4).            207.7 Case 4 (See Figure 2.5-1): The bounding safe shutdown case for peak suppression pool temperature has reactor depressurization beginning at 25 minutes using three MSRVs. As the reactor is depressurized, condensate pumps replenish reactor inventory until hotwell inventory is depleted. After condensate is secured, one RHR pump is aligned into LPCI/ASDC mode. One RHRSW pump is initiated at two hours. Peak SP temperature reaches 208.0&deg;F and this meets the containment integrity acceptance criteria of < 281&deg;F and the torus attached piping limit of
<223&deg;F (See Section 2.2.2.2.2.2). Analyses show that containment accident pressure credit is not required to ensure adequate pump net positive suction head (NPSH) to mitigate a fire event (see Section 2.6.5.2 and LAR Attachment 39).
The results of Case 4, and the evaluations in Section 2.6.5.2, FUSAR Section 2.5.1.4, and LAR 9, demonstrate that the peak fuel cladding temperature, vessel water level, and suppression pool temperature meet the acceptance criteria and the time available for the operators to perform the necessary actions is sufficient. Therefore, EPU has no adverse effect on the ability of the systems and personnel to mitigate the effects of a fire event and satisfies the requirement of achieving and maintaining the fuel in a safe and stable condition in the event of a fire.
Conclusion TVA has evaluated fire-related safe shutdown requirements and has accounted for the effects of the increased decay heat on the ability of the required systems to achieve and maintain safe shutdown conditions. The evaluation indicates that the FPP will continue to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.48, final GDC-3, and draft GDC-4 following implementation of the proposed EPU. Therefore, the proposed EPU is acceptable with respect to fire protection.
2.5.2    Fission Product Control 2.5.2.1 Fission Product Control Systems and Structures Regulatory Evaluation The NRCs acceptance criteria are based on GDC-41, insofar as it requires that the containment atmosphere cleanup system be provided to reduce the concentration of fission products released to the environment following postulated accidents.
Specific NRC review criteria are contained in SRP Section 6.5.3.

Fire Event ECCS NPSH In the containment response analysis for a Browns Ferry fire event as described in Section 2.5.1.4.2, a single RHR pump is the only ECCS pump assumed to operate in order to achieve fire event safe shutdown. The containment response to a fire event was performed at EPU RTP. In the ECCS NPSH evaluation, a RHR flow rate of 7,615 gpm is used. For Browns Ferry, the limiting fire event scenario terminates following initiation of Alternate Shutdown Cooling (ASDC) and safe and stable conditions are achieved. Zero percent uncertainty is applied in the determination of NPSHReff for this special event. ECCS suction strainer debris loading and holdup volume are not included in the NPSH evaluation because there is no assumption of a pipe break or operation of containment sprays during the event. A nominal initial suppression pool level was assumed, which is consistent with the NRC guidance contained in Reference 97.                         Technical Specification minimum The maximum suppression pool temperature, NPSHa, NPSH margin, and the operating time with a margin ratio less than 1.6 are listed in Table 2.6-4. The RHR pump flow rate used in the ECCS NPSH evaluation are conservatively higher than those used in the safety analysis that provides the suppression pool temperature response. A t ime-history plot of the NPSHa for the limiting fire event is provided in Figure 2.6-16. This case demonstrates positive NPSH margin and thus, CAP credit is not required. However, the small margin prompted a further sensitivity case to show increased margin.
The sensitivity case involved an analysis where a postulated 1,000 hp electric-driven Emergency High Pressure Makeup Pump (EHPMP) could be used as defense-in-depth to inject water from the CST through the FW piping and into the RPV while the RHR pump was operating in ASDC mode. This effectively provides a means of pumping CST inventory through the RPV and into the torus to increase the suppression pool mass, providing more mass to accept the heat input from the RPV while at the same time increasing the suppression pool level which would increase the RHR pump NPSHa. This case used the Browns Ferry TS value of 95&deg;F for RHRSW temperature. This case also used the EPU design RHR heat exchanger K-value of 287 BTU/sec-&deg;F. Further details concerning the determination of the RHR heat exchanger K-value are contained in LAR Attachment 39.
The results from the sensitivity case described above are provided in Table 2.6-4b. The sensitivity case is provided for comparison purposes only. The improvement in the NPSH margin by using the EHPMP is 2.9 feet compared to the results contained in Table 2.6-4 for the fire event.
Station Blackout ECCS NPSH The Browns Ferry SBO event described in Section 2.3.5 postulates that on-site and off-site power are lost for the entire four hour coping duration. The containment response to SBO was performed at EPU RTP. Core cooling is maintained with high pressure injection systems (HPCI and/or RCIC) taking suction from the CST and excess reactor steam is vented to the suppression pool using MSRVs. At the end of the four hour coping period, RHR pumps are operated in 2-315

NEDO-33860 Revision 0 Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public) suppression pool cooling mode. NPSH concerns for the SBO event are related to the suppression pool level, pump suction strainer and suction piping friction losses, and peak suppression pool temperature at the end of the four hour coping period when suppression pool cooling is initiated.
For the SBO event, the only ECCS pumps operating with suction from the suppression pool are the RHR pumps. The assumed RHR pump flow for the SBO NPSH evaluation is 6,600 gpm. Zero percent uncertainty is applied in the determination of NPSHReff for this special event. ECCS suction strainer debris loading and holdup volume are not included in the NPSH evaluation because there is no assumption of a pipe break or operation of containment sprays during the event. The maximum suppression pool temperature, NPSHa, NPSH margin, and the operating time with a margin ratio less than 1.6 for the SBO scenario is listed in Table 2.6-4.
The pump flow rate used in the ECCS NPSH evaluation is conservatively higher than that used in the safety analysis that provides the suppression pool temperature response. The HPCI pumps are also credited for the SBO event, operating for a maximum of 30 minutes with suction from the CST only. A time-history plot of the NPSHa is provided in Figure 2.6-17.
and pressure regulator failure ATWS ECCS NPSH open (PRFO) EOC                                         events are      171.8 As discussed in Section 2.8.5.7, the limiting event with respect to peak suppression pool temperature is the ATWS-LOOP event (two RHR pumps / heat exchangers) which results in a are peak suppression pool temperature of 173.3&deg;F at EPU RTP. The most limiting non-LOOP (four RHR pumps / heat exchangers) ATWS event is main stem isolation valve closure (MSIVC)
EOC, which experiences a peak suppression pool temperature of 171.7&deg;F. The ATWS events events were analyzed at EPU RTP. Similar to the previous discussion concerning the effect of total both of pump flow on ECCS pump suction piping and strainer friction loss (RSLB DBA-LOCA versus RDLB LOCA short-term discussion), when the combined transient effects of suppression pooland PRFO temperature, suppression pool level and ECCS pump suction losses are considered, the ATWSEOC events resulting in the least NPSH margin is the non-LOOP event (MSIVC EOC) where the pump suction piping losses exceed the gain from a lower peak pool temperature. The NPSH margin is 14.2 feet for this non-LOOP event whereas the NPSH margin for the LOOP event is 15.5 feet. Consequently, with no CAP credit, there is substantial NPSH margin for all the ATWS events.                 these             events For the ATWS event, the only ECCS pumps operating from the suppression pool are the RHR pumps. HPCI supplies makeup to the RPV with suction from the CST. The CS pumps are not credited for the ATWS event. The assumed RHR pump flow for the ATWS event NPSH analysis is 6,600 gpm. Zero percent uncertainty is applied in the determination of NPSHReff for this special event. ECCS suction strainer debris loading and holdup volume are not included in the NPSH evaluation because there is no assumption of a pipe break or operation of containment sprays during the event. The Browns Ferry RPV pressure relief system uses only MSRVs that are piped to discharge headers (T-quenchers) below the torus water level. There are no un-piped spring safety valves that discharge directly into the drywell and could contribute to ECCS suction strainer debris loading during an ATWS event. The maximum suppression pool temperature, NPSHa, NPSH margin, and the operating time < 1.6 margin ratio for the ATWS 2-316

The pump flow rates used in the ECCS NPSH evaluation are conservatively higher than those used in the safety analysis that provides the suppression pool temperature response. A time-history plot of the NPSHa is provided in Figure 2.6-18.
Shutdown of the Non-Accident Unit Following LOOP and Accident in the Accident Unit ECCS NPSH The suppression pool temperature response during shutdown and cooldown of the non-accident Browns Ferry units during an accident, including DBA-LOCA (on the accident unit) concurrent with loss of offsite power and loss of a 4 kV shutdown board is discussed in Section 2.6.5.1.
This event results in the non-accident Browns Ferry unit entering into shutdown cooling mode in order to achieve cold shutdown conditions. Evaluation of the shutdown of the non-accident unit was performed at 102% EPU RTP. For the non-accident unit safe shutdown NPSH analysis, a single RHR pump in the non-accident unit is assumed to operate at 10,000 gpm, which is conservatively higher than the RHR pump flow rate (9,700 gpm) assumed in the safety analysis that provides the suppression pool temperature response. For the non-accident unit NPSH analysis CS is assumed to operate at 3,173 gpm to provide RPV inventory makeup when HPCI is not available. HPCI is assumed available for part of this event. HPCI can be operated either with suction from the CST or HPCI operation can be secured prior to the suppression pool temperature reaching the 140&deg;F qualification limit for HPCI. Zero percent uncertainty is applied in the determination of NPSHReff because this is a non-design basis event.
ECCS suction strainer debris loading and holdup volume are not assumed in the NPSH evaluation because there is no pipe break or operation of containment sprays during the event.
The maximum suppression pool temperature, NPSH margin, and the operating time with a margin ratio less than 1.6 is listed in Table 2.6-4. Time history plots of NPSHa for the RHR and CS pumps are provided in Figure 2.6-19a and Figure 2.6-19b, respectively.
ECCS NPSH Summary EPU RTP operation increases the reactor decay heat, which increases the heat addition to the suppression pool following a DBA-LOCA or other events. The peak suppression pool temperature for the analyzed accidents and transients is within the design capability of the ECCS pumps. Adequate NPSHa is demonstrated, and no credit for CAP is needed. The ECCS pump operating time with a margin ratio less than 1.6 is much less than 100 hours for any event.
The debris generated and transported following a LOCA that can cause ECCS strainer head loss includes fiber, reflective metal insulation, qualified coatings, dirt/dust, rust flakes, sludge, and unqualified coatings. The ECCS suction strainers are passive, stacked-disc strainers, which were designed, manufactured and tested by GE Nuclear Energy. The ECCS strainer design debris load, which was used as an input to the strainer design, is documented Reference 38. The quantity and characterization of the strainer debris loading is based on the methodology in Reference 102. The Browns Ferry design basis ECCS suction strainer debris loading was evaluated and is not affected by EPU.

Note:
: 1. The SBO analysis sequence of events shown in Table 2.3-4b states that two RHR pumps and two RHR heat exchangers are placed in service at the end of the four hour coping period. The SBO NPSH evaluation assumed a more limiting case where four RHR pumps are placed in service at the end of the four hour coping period. The configuration of four running RHR pumps results in a higher suction piping and strainer friction loss term and a more limiting NPSH margin determination than for a two running RHR pump configuration.

Notes :
(1)   To maximize the effect of EPU, a baseline is established at the OLTP level, assuming the current licensed equipment performance assumptions and plant parameters.
(2)   In the ODYN analysis methodology, the MSRV setpoints for the ATWS analysis are statistically spread around the upper analytical limit. The EPU values are consistent with the values used for the RPV ATWS analysis contained in the FUSAR.
(3)   The CLTP analysis used the current Browns Ferry Technical Specification value for SLCS flow rate. The EPU analysis uses a nominal SLCS pump flow rate. The EPU value is more conservative (lower) than the plant action level for SLCS testing specified in Browns Ferry Procedure SR 3.1.7.7 - Standby Liquid Control System Functional Test.
(4)   As part of the Browns Ferry EPU implementation, TVA will perform a plant modification to increase the SLCS storage tank B-10 enrichment to 96 atom-%. 94 atom-% enrichment is credited in the EPU analysis.
(5)   The CLTP analysis used the Technical Specification minimum concentration value. The EPU analysis uses a nominal concentration value that remains below the maximum allowed concentration stated in Browns Ferry Technical Specification SR 3.1.7.4.
(6)   The CLTP analysis used a conservative generic transport time. The EPU analysis used a Browns Ferry plant specific value that considers the actual pipe lengths from the SLCS storage tank to the RPV lower plenum, the SLCS pipe internal diameters, and the EPU SLCS flow rate of 50 gpm. The calculated transport time was multiplied by a factor of 1.2 for additional conservatism.

r NEDO-33860 Revision 0                  of 259 BTU/sec-oF 3,800                         Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public) conservative (7)   The EPU heat exchanger effectiveness assumes a RHR flow rate of 6,500 gpm and RHR SW flow rate of 4,000 gpm through each in-service RHR heat exchanger for events that assume operation of 4 RHR loops (see Note 8 below). The heat exchange fouling resistance, used to calculate the RHR heat exchanger effectiveness value used in the ATWS analysis, is a nominal value that is supported by Browns Ferry plant specific RHR heat exchanger testing. Details concerning the fouling resistance used and the determination of the RHR heat exchanger K-value for the ATWS analysis are presented in Browns Ferry EPU LAR Attachment 39. of 277 BTU/sec-oF The EPU heat exchanger effectiveness assumes a RHR flow rate of 6500 gpm and RHR SW flow rate of 4500 gpm through each in-service RHR heat exchanger for the event that assumes operation of 2 RHR loops (see Note 9 below). The heat exchange fouling resistance, used to calculate the RHR heat exchanger effectiveness value used in the ATWS analysis, is a conservative value that is supported by Browns Ferry plant specific RHR heat exchanger testing. Details concerning the fouling resistance used and the determination of the RHR heat exchanger K-value for the ATWS analysis are presented in the Browns Ferry EPU LAR Attachment 39.           3,800 (8)   The RHR suppression pool cooling configuration does not change for EPU. An RHR loop is defined as one RHR pump, one RHR heat exchanger and RHR SW flow of 4,000 gpm through the RHR heat exchanger. For ATWS events other than LOOP, the plant operators would be directed by plant EOIs to maximize suppression pool cooling. Because there is no concurrent event on the non-ATWS unit, four RHR loops are assumed available for suppression pool cooling in the ATWS unit.
(9)   The RHR suppression pool cooling configuration does not change for EPU. An RHR loop is defined as one RHR pump, one RHR heat exchanger and RHR SW flow of 4,500 gpm through the RHR heat exchanger. For the LOOP ATWS event, operators will be directed by EOIs to maximize suppression cooling. Because there is also a LOOP (without ATWS) on the remaining two Browns Ferry units, only two RHR loops are assumed available for suppression pool cooling on the ATWS unit.
(10)  The RHR startup delay time assumes no operator action for containment cooling for the first 10 minutes of the event with an additional 60 seconds for RHR to reach full effectiveness.
(11)  The May-Witt decay heat correlation is used in the suppression pool temperature calculation following reactor shutdown. The May-Witt decay heat correlation yields a conservative pool heat-up compared to the 1979 ANS 5.1 + 2 curve.
(12)  The steam extraction points for feedwater heaters are downstream of the MSIVs, such that FW heating is lost following MSIV isolation. The specific extraction points are as follows:
HP turbine exhaust to FW heater number 1 (highest pressure FW heater)
LP turbine stage 7 to FW heater number 2 LP turbine stage 8 to FW heater number 3 LP turbine stage 10 to FW heater number 4 LP turbine stage 12 to FW heater number 5 (lowest pressure FW heater) 2-442

Hot Shutdown Boron Weight (HSBW) and Cold Shutdown Boron Weight (CSBW) - The percentage of tank level that must be injected will change due to the increase in boron enrichment.
Decay Heat Removal Pressure (DHRP) - The DHRP will be affected by the increase in decay heat loading. The pressure will increase by approximately 12 psig but will have minimal effect on the plant operators.
The following EOIs and Severe Accident Management Guidelines (SAMG)s are planned to be revised as a result of EPU (The modifications mentioned can be found in EPU LAR 7.):
EOI-1 FLOWCHART and Bases, RPV CONTROL, are affected by the installation of the Emergency High Pressure Makeup Pump (EHPMP) modification.
EOI-1A FLOWCHART and Bases, ATWS RPV CONTROL, are affected by changes to the Cold and Hot Shutdown Boron Weights and the installation of the EHPMP modification.
EOI-2 FLOWCHART and Bases, PRIMARY CONTAINMENT CONTROL, are affected by the changes to the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit and the Pressure Suppression Pressure.
EOI-5, CURVES AND CAUTIONS, is affected by changes to the Heat Capacity Temperature Limit and the Pressure Suppression Pressure.
C-2 FLOWCHART and Bases, EMERGENCY RPV DEPRESSURIZATION, are affected by the changes to the Decay Heat Removal Pressure.
C-2A FLOWCHART and Bases, ATWS EMERGENCY RPV DEPRESSURIZATION, are affected by the changes in the Cold Shutdown Boron Weight and the Decay Heat Removal Pressure.
C-4 FLOWCHART and Bases, RPV FLOODING, are affected by changes to the Decay Heat Removal Pressure and by installation of the EHPMP modification.
C-4A FLOWCHART and Bases, ATWS RPV FLOODING, are affected by changes to the Decay Heat Removal Pressure and by installation of the EHPMP modification.
Emergency High Pressure Makeup Pump, will be developed to allow operators to make-up to the RPV from the CST with a newly installed non-safety-related pump.
(Future new procedure to be developed as part of implementation of NFPA 805.)
Hardened Wetwell Vent, will be developed to allow operators to vent the suppression pool air space through a hardened vent pipe that exhausts above the Reactor Building roof. (Future procedures will be developed to implement the requirements for the mitigation of beyond-design basis events.)
SAMG-1, PRIMARY CONTAINMENT FLOODING, is affected by changes to the Pressure Suppression Pressure, the Minimum Debris Retention Injection Rate, and by installation of the EHPMP modification.             and 2-509

NEDO-33860 Revision 0 Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public)
Abnormal Operating Procedures (AOPs) at Browns Ferry are defined as Abnormal Operator Instructions (AOIs), Annunciator Response Procedures (ARPs), Fire Safe Shutdown (FSSs), and select sections of Operator Instructions (OIs).
AOI-3-1, Loss of Reactor Feedwater or Reactor Water Level High/Low, will be revised to no longer require operators to immediately lower reactor power level to 80%, by reducing Recirculation Pump flow, in order to avoid a low reactor water level scram.
The Condensate/Condensate Booster/Feedwater pumps were all changed from 1/3 capacity to 1/2 capacity pumps. The loss of certain single pumps or pump combinations, at EPU conditions, can require a power reduction of as much as 7% to re-establish desired NPSH ratios or to reduce the Condensate Booster Pump horsepower (still within its service factor) back to within its nameplate rating.
AOI 47-3, Loss of Condenser Vacuum, was revised to reflect the modification that replaced condenser low vacuum pressure switches with pressure transmitters. These transmitters provide Turbine Trip and Bypass Valve Trip inputs to the Electro-Hydraulic Control System and provide condenser vacuum indication in the CR via an existing recorder. Now the trips and operator indication will originate from the same transmitter and are therefore aligned.
AOI-57-1A, Loss of Offsite Power (161 and 500 kV)/Station Blackout (SBO), will be revised for the following:
: 1) To incorporate a time sensitive operator action:
: a. Crosstie of the Containment Atmospheric Dilution system to the Drywell Control Air System approximately 2 hours into the SBO scenario.
: 2) To incorporate changes to the SBO HCTL and SBO Pressure Suppression Pressure curves for the SBO scenario.
AOI 57-1E, Grid Instability, will be revised to take into account the uprated Turbine/Generator output capability for each of the units:
Unit 1:          1,330 MWe at 0.95 Power Factor Units 2 and 3: 1,332 MWe at 0.93 Power Factor OI-47, Turbine Generator System, required revision to reflect that the rewound Main Generator will be required to be tripped within 60 seconds of a loss of Stator Cooling Water. The previous time requirement was 70 seconds.
EOIs and AOPs will also be rescaled as required to reflect the power uprate.
2.11.1.2 Changes to Operator Actions Sensitive to Power Uprate Most abnormal events result in automatic plant shutdown (scram). Some abnormal events result in SRV actuation, ADS actuation and/or automatic ECCS actuation. All analyzed events result in safety-related SSCs remaining within their design limits. EPU does not change any automatic safety function. Changes to subsequent operator actions are as follows.
2-510

NEDO-33860 Revision 0 Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public) 2.11.1.2.1 Changes for Design Basis Accidents (DBA) and Events An EHPMP will be installed as an additional option for operators to provide water to the RPV in the EOI and SAMG procedures.
AOI-57-1A, Loss of Offsite Power (161 and 500 kV)/Station Blackout (SBO), will be revised to incorporate a time sensitive action as a result of EPU:
: 1) Crosstie of the Containment Atmospheric Dilution system to the Drywell Control Air System approximately 2 hours into the SBO scenario.
This time sensitive operator action is a simple task, requires a small time duration to perform
(< 10 minutes), is performed in the control room (CR), and will easily be able to be successfully performed within the 2 hour required timeframe. As such, time validation of this action is not necessary.
2.11.1.2.2 Fire Safe Shutdown (FSS) Events The purpose of the FSS procedures is to provide supplemental instruction, including the manual recovery actions needed, in conjunction with the EOIs should an EOI initiating condition exist, to ensure safe shutdown of Unit 1, Unit 2 or Unit 3, or all three units if conditions require, in the event of a disabling fire event. Existing plant procedures are written to support an Appendix R fire at EPU conditions. The NFPA 805 FSS procedures will allow the plant to use all available equipment until proven unreliable with the exception of annunciators. Credited equipment is equipment which has the highest probability to remain functional in the fire event. Use of the credited, or preferred, equipment is desired in that it is least likely to be affected due to a fire related event. 7 of the EPU LAR provides a listing and discussion of the modifications planned for EPU. The effect of these modifications on the Browns Ferry Fire Protection Program will be evaluated, in accordance with TVAs configuration change process, prior to EPU implementation. Per the process, these modifications will be evaluated to assure the changes do not affect the approved Fire Protection Program and will not adversely affect the ability to achieve and maintain safe shutdown in accordance with the current Browns Ferry license conditions and procedures.
As the FSSs are symptom based, the implementation of EPU does not change how the FSSs will be implemented or executed. The EHPMP will be available as an additional option for operators to provide water to the RPV. No operator actions need to be performed more quickly as a result of EPU implementation.
2.11.1.2.3 Anticipated Transient Without Scram Event An EHPMP is not credited but will be available as an additional option for operators to provide water to the RPV. There will also be changes to the cold and hot shutdown boron weights and the decay heat removal pressure. No operator actions need to be performed more quickly as a result of EPU implementation.
2-511

NEDO-33860 Revision 0 Non-Proprietary Information - Class I (Public) 2.11.1.2.4 Conclusion The changes to Browns Ferry operator actions, as a result of the EPU, are small in number. There is only one time sensitive operator action. This action is a simple task, requires a small time duration to perform (< 10 minutes), is performed in the control room and will easily be able to be successfully performed within the two hour required timeframe. The changes to operator actions will be reflected in the procedures and the operators will receive appropriate classroom and/or simulator training prior to EPU implementation. There are no new or revised operator workarounds as a result of EPU.
2.11.1.3 Changes to Control Room Controls, Displays and Alarms Changes to the CR are prepared in accordance with the plant design change process. Under this process, a Human Factors engineering review is performed for changes associated with the Browns Ferry CR. The change process also requires a review by Operations and Training personnel. Results of these reviews, including simulator effect and training requirements, are incorporated into the engineering change package and tracked to completion by the design change process.
The following changes have been/will be made to the CR Controls, Displays and / or Alarms resulting from EPU:
Controls will be installed in the Control Room that will allow the operators to start an EHPMP that will take suction from the CST and discharge to the RPV.
The Turbine First Stage Pressure Scram Bypass setpoint and associated alarm will be changed.
Condenser pressure transmitters have been installed and the Turbine Trip and Turbine-Bypass Trip signal and alarms originate from these instruments as does the control room indication for the operators.
Changes will be made to the Rod Worth Minimizer to reflect EPU conditions. A new runback for the Recirculation Pumps to 75% speed will occur on a scram signal to prevent water level from reaching the Level 2 setpoint.
Removed the SJAE auto-start capability and replaced the HS-150/152 three-position switches with two-position switches.
The control switches for the former Moisture Separator Drain Pumps that were removed now operate Moisture Separator Isolation Valves. A seventh control switch allows condensate to be injected into the Moisture Separator Drain Line.
Controls for an additional Bus Duct Cooler Fan have been installed.
TS instruments for instrument and control systems are affected by EPU as described in the Enclosure to the EPU LAR and Attachments 2 and 3.
2.11.1.3.1 Conclusion The changes to Browns Ferry CR interfaces as a result of the EPU do not significantly affect operator human performance. Operator training for changes to CR interfaces, alarms, and 2-512

ENCLOSURE 4 BFN EPU LAR, Attachment 39, Revision 1, RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses The following summarizes the changes to EPU LAR Attachment 39 associated with this LAR Supplement:
* Use of nominal inputs for the fire event, special event containment analyses. For the three special events discussed in SECY-11-0014, ATWS, Station Blackout, and Fire event, nominal inputs are used only for the fire event in the BFN EPU containment analyses.
* Another change associated with the fire event is to eliminate previous discussions of EPU design and EPU nominal fouling resistances and instead use a single value for the EPU design fouling resistance (acceptance criterion) for all events, 0.001562 hr-ft2-
        &deg;F/Btu, that is based on the most limiting event, the NFPA 805 fire event.
* Another change associated with the fire event is the use of test results, with test uncertainty included, for comparison to the EPU design fouling resistance (acceptance criteria)
* A reduction in the ATWS non-LOOP event RHR heat exchanger K-value from 277 Btu/sec to 259 Btu/sec due to reduced RHRSW flow through each heat exchanger when all four heat exchangers in one unit are placed in service.
* Reporting the results of all fourteen RHR heat exchanger tests for the twelve RHR heat exchangers.
* Removal of the Emergency High Pressure Makeup Pump, previously discussed in association with the fire event, from this LAR Supplement.
The following provides a more detailed summary and justification for the changes to EPU LAR 9 associated with this LAR Supplement:
* For the NFPA 805 fire event containment analysis, use the following nominal inputs:
o 88&deg;F RHRSW temperature instead of 92&deg;F o 92&deg;F initial suppression pool temperature instead of 95&deg;F
* For the NFPA 805 fire event containment analysis, use an RHR heat exchanger K-value of 290 Btu/sec-&deg;F instead of 307 Btu/sec-&deg;F
* Use of the above inputs in the NFPA 805 containment analysis and a more rigorous benchmarking to design documents (heat exchanger specification sheets and drawings) resulted in:
o a change in the peak suppression pool temperature to 207.7&deg;F instead of the previous 208.0&deg;F o an allowable fouling resistance of 0.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/Btu with the NFPA 805 licensing condition tube plugging limit maintained at 4.57% (77 tubes plugged)
* A reduction in the ATWS non-LOOP event RHR heat exchanger K-value from 277 Btu/sec to 259 Btu/sec due to reduced RHRSW flow through each heat exchanger when all four heat exchangers in one unit are placed in service.
* The ATWS (non-LOOP) limiting event was previously reported as MSIVC-EOC with a peak suppression pool temperature of 171.7&deg;F. With the change in the ATWS (non-LOOP) event RHR heat exchanger K-value from 277 Btu/sec-&deg;F to 259 Btu/sec-&deg;F, the peak suppression pool temperature changes to 171.8&deg;F for both the MSIVC-EOC and the PRFO-EOC events.
1.0 Introduction This attachment provides EPU event-specific RHR heat exchanger K-values and heat removal rates for postulated events. The heat exchanger K-value determinations in this attachment Att 39-1

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses confirm that the specific K-value used in each containment analysis is appropriate and suitable for the expected EPU conditions.
The Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant original design value for the RHR heat exchanger effectiveness K-value is 223 BTU/sec-&deg;F.
In Reference 4.32, TVA previously submitted a License Amendment Request (LAR) to transition the licensing basis for the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant to National Fire Protection Association standard 805 (NFPA 805) which, in (Ref. 4.32) Attachment X and subsequent responses to NRC requests for additional information (RAIs) (Ref. 4.43), included a change to the RHR heat exchanger K-value from 223 BTU/sec-&deg;F to 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F and provided the basis for the change to the K-value. The extended power uprate (EPU) design value used for the containment analyses under the design basis accident (DBA) loss of coolant accident (LOCA),
for containment heat removal is 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F, which is consistent with the NFPA 805 LAR (CLTP) K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F. However, this EPU LAR attachment also identifies changes to specific values reported in the NFPA 805 LAR. These changes are addressed in the following paragraph.
In the NFPA 805 transition LAR (Ref. 4.32) and associated RAI responses (Ref. 4.43) the RHR heat exchanger overall fouling resistance corresponding to a K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F and a peak suppression pool temperature of 187.4&deg;F (DBA-LOCA temperature) was reported to be 0.001517 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU. This fouling resistance corresponds to a K-value of 284.5 BTU/sec-&deg;F at the CLTP NFPA 805 fire event conditions. However, for conservatism, a K-value of 270 BTU/sec-&deg;F is used in the CLTP NFPA 805 fire event analyses. This attachment provides a re-calculated DBA-LOCA EPU design fouling resistance associated with a K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F for a peak suppression pool temperature of 179.0&deg;F. This change in the peak suppression pool temperature from 187.4&deg;F to 179.0&deg;F results in a slightly different EPU design fouling resistance, 0.001521 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
Additionally, the fire event analysis was performed at EPU conditions using nominal inputs of 88&deg;F RHRSW temperature and 92&deg;F initial suppression pool temperature. The previous (CLTP) fire event analysis had been performed using 92&deg;F RHRSW temperature and 95&deg;F initial suppression pool temperature. The NFPA 805 fire event tube plugging limit, 77 tubes mechanically plugged, was maintained for EPU. With the above changes in the nominal inputs and with 77 tubes mechanically plugged the EPU fire event allowable fouling resistance was determined to be 0.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU. Consequently, tThe values of DBA-LOCA peak suppression pool temperature and design fouling resistance that were provided in the NFPA 805 LAR (Ref. 4.32) are superseded by the EPU values provided herein, 179.0&deg;F and 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, respectively, and reflecting updated EPU analyses.

* The limiting ATWS event, with respect to ECCS pump NPSH, is where 4 RHR heat exchangers are in service with a RHRSW flow rate of 3800 gpm. However, a K-value of 277 is still used for the limiting peak suppression pool temperature ATWS event where 2 RHR heat exchangers are in service with an RHRSW flow rate of 4500 gpm. In addition, the fire event was analyzed using the Emergency High Pressure Make-Up (EHPMU) pump and an RHR heat exchanger K-value of 287 BTU/sec-&deg;F. This represents a defense-in-depth demonstration and is not a licensing basis analysis.
The Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) (Ref. 4.54) provides additional descriptive information concerning the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchangers in UFSAR sections 1.6.2.12 (Residual Heat Removal System (Containment Cooling)), 4.8.6.2 (Containment Cooling), 4.8.6.3 (Low Pressure Coolant Injection), Table 4.8-1 (Residual Heat Removal System Equipment Design Data) and Table 5.2-1 (Principal Design Parameters and Characteristics of Primary Containment).
2.0 Computations and Analysis 2.1      Methodology The methodology utilizes an Excel spreadsheet platform, and standard engineering formulas, to solve for the RHR heat exchanger K-value based on the input parameter values.
The formula for heat exchanger effectiveness is a function of the overall heat transfer coefficient, the effective heat transfer area, and other parameters identified below. The Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant RHR heat exchangers are identical single shell pass, two tube pass Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association, Inc. (TEMA) type CES heat exchangers.

Tables 1, 2, and 3, below, provide the results from specific evaluations using the overall fouling resistance and the corresponding heat exchanger K-value for each of the fouling resistances in Table 4. The specified fouling resistances cover a wide range from the original supplied RHR heat exchanger design fouling resistance (0.0028000.002801 hr-ft2-
&deg;F/BTU) to a clean RHR heat exchanger fouling resistance (0.000000 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU).
Specifically, tThe EPU design fouling resistance, 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU; the EPU nominal fouling resistance, 0.001097 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU and the fouling resistances determined from six different Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant RHR heat exchanger tests performed to date are some for the NFPA 805 fire event with 77 tubes assumed plugged is of the most more significant of the fouling resistancess.
Table 4 provides a comparison summary of heat exchanger heat transfer rates capability at different fouling resistances which can be compared to the followingand corresponding K-values for the different EPU K-values that were used in the event containment analyses:
* 259 BTU/sec-&deg;F (ATWS with 4 RHR heat exchangers in service), 277 BTU/sec-&deg;F (ATWS with 2 RHR heat exchangers in service), 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F (DBA-LOCA, Small Break LOCA, Loss of Shutdown Cooling, Stuck Open Relief Valve and SBO), 302 BTU/sec-&deg;F (Shutdown of Non-Accident Unit), and 287 290 BTU/sec-&deg;F (fire event defense-in-depth demonstration case) are based onless than or equal to the heat exchanger heat transfer capability at the EPU design fouling resistance, 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
307 BTU/sec-&deg;F (fire event licensing basis) is based on the EPU nominal fouling resistance, 0.001097 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
277 BTU/sec-&deg;F for the ATWS-MSIVC-EOC event corresponds to a nominal fouling resistance of 0.001220 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
2.2      Analysis RHR heat exchanger K-values used in the containment analyses are identified for each event within the applicable Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Power Uprate Safety Analysis Report Att 39-4

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses (PUSAR) section. Unless otherwise noted and discussed below for ATWS and fire events, aAll events were evaluated at the EPU design fouling resistance (same heat exchanger material condition). For the same EPU design fouling resistance, differences in RHR and Residual Heat Removal Service Water (RHRSW) flow rates from one event to another may result in different RHR heat exchanger K-values (see Table 4).
The DBA LOCA discussion provides the basis for the change in the pre-EPU and the EPU design fouling resistance and the corresponding EPU K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F. The Shutdown of the Non-Accident Unit analysis K-value, 302 BTU/sec-&deg;F, is bounded by the heat transfer capability at also based on the EPU design fouling resistance, 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU (see Table 4). The EPU fire event analysis K-value was based on the EPU nominal design fouling resistance with 77 tubes plugged. , 0.001097 hr-2 ft -&deg;F/BTU and tThe ATWS event analyses K-values are also bounded by the heat exchanger heat transfer capability at were based on a the nominal design fouling resistance or K-value that lies between the EPU design and EPU nominal fouling resistances. Details are provided in the following discussion of the events.
DBA-LOCA - PUSAR Section 2.6.5.1 The EPU design basis fouling resistance, 0.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/Btu, is based on the conditions from the limiting EPU DBA-LOCANFPA 805 fire event. The EPU design fouling resistance at DBA-LOCA conditions where Specifically, the RHR flow rate is of 6500 gpm at a peak suppression pool temperature (heat exchanger inlet temperature) of 179.0&deg;F, the RHRSW flow rate isof 4000 gpm at 95&deg;F RHRSW temperature, with up to 4.575 percent tube plugging, results in an and an RHR heat exchanger K-value of of 265266.4 BTU/sec-&deg;F, as shown in Table 1. This K-value, 266.4, is used to calculate the DBA-LOCA EPU heat transfer capability, 80,559,360 Btu/hr shown in Table 4. are used to determine the EPU design basis fouling resistance. This K-value and heat transfer capability exceeds the DBA-LOCA K-value (265 Btu/sec-&deg;F) and heat transfer capability (80,136,000 Btu/hr) assumed in the DBA-LOCA containment analysis. Equation 1 is used to solve for fouling resistance, based on a given K-value or, to calculate a K-value based on a specified fouling resistance, provided the other state points are known.
The EPU containment response analyses were performed for the long-term DBA-LOCA using a RHR heat exchanger K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F compared to 223 BTU/sec-&deg;F used in previous analyses. The previous value of 223 BTU/sec-&deg;F was based on the RHR heat exchanger specification sheets, which specified the design fouling resistances. Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant plant-specific RHR heat exchanger testing (Ref. 4.43, including SCVB RAI-5) has shown there is substantial margin between the design and actual (tested) heat exchanger fouling resistances.
Some of this large margin was used to increase RHR heat exchanger heat transfer capability from that specified in the original design to a K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F. The corresponding EPU design fouling resistance at the DBA-LOCA conditions identified above is 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU.
Under certain scenarios, higher RHR and/or RHRSW flows may be achieved than those used to establish the EPU design basis fouling resistance. Using minimum flow rates in determining the RHR heat exchanger heat removal capability embeds conservatism into the containment analysis results. A lower containment heat removal rate results in higher Att 39-5

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses suppression pool temperatures; thus, the analysis is conservative with respect to suppression pool temperature.
Other events, including the small break LOCA, loss of RHR shutdown cooling, stuck open relief valve (SORV), and station blackout, were evaluated using an RHR heat exchanger K-value of 265 BTU/sec-&deg;F and are described in PUSAR Section 2.6.5.2.
Shutdown of the Non-Accident Unit - PUSAR Section 2.6.5.1 An RHR heat exchanger K-value of 302 BTU/sec-&deg;F was used in the analysis of the shutdown of the non-accident unit. This value represents is bounded by the K-value resulting from a design basis fouling resistance, RHR flow of 9700 gpm at the peak suppression pool temperature of 185.1&deg;F, RHRSW flow of 4500 gpm at 95&deg;F, and 4.575 percent tube plugging. These parameters are consistent with the analysis inputs/results described in PUSAR Section 2.6.5.1.
Fire Event - PUSAR Section 2.5.1.4.2 The fire event analysis assumes one RHR heat exchanger available for event mitigation. All other RHR heat exchangers are assumed to be not available which restricts containment heat removal capability. Of all the events analyzed, because of restrictive/conservative assumptions, such as the availability of only one RHR pump and heat exchanger, the fire event results in the highest peak suppression pool temperature. In-situ RHR heat exchanger performance testing (results previously submitted under Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant NFPA 805 LAR (Ref. 4.32) Attachment X and associated RAI responses (Ref. 4.43))
demonstrate that the actual heat removal capability of RHR heat exchangers exceeds that assumed in the fire event containment analysis.
An RHRSW flow of 4500 gpm is achievable for the fire event. The combination of increased RHRSW flow and the use of a realistic or nominalthe design heat exchanger fouling resistance, 0.0010970.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, corresponds to an increase in the EPUa fire event heat exchanger K-value to of 307 290 BTU/sec-&deg;F with 77 tubes mechanically plugged. As discussed in PUSAR Section 2.5.1.4.2, a fire event containment analysis was performed using the K-value of 307 290 BTU/sec-&deg;F which resulted in a peak suppression pool temperature of 208.0207.7&deg;F.
SECY-11-0014 (Ref. 4.6) provides guidance on the use of realistic or nominal inputs for special event such as a fire event. For the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant EPU, the fire event is the only event where nominal inputs were used. For the NFPA 805 fire event the nominal inputs used were an RHRSW (river) temperature of 88&deg;F, instead of the Tech Spec value of 95&deg;F, and an initial suppression pool temperature of 92&deg;F, instead of the Tech Spec value of 95&deg;F. Other inputs in the fire event containment analysis were conservatively assumed at Tech Spec values (e.g. initial suppression pool level). The basis for using 88&deg;F as the RHRSW temperature instead of the UHS temperature of 95&deg;F specified in TS surveillance requirement 3.7.2.1 is that historical plant operating data shows that actual temperatures are less than or equal to 88&deg;F more than 95% of the time. The RHRSW temperature of 95&deg;F is used in the design basis LOCA containment analyses.
The justification of UHS or RHRSW temperature of 88&deg;F and an initial suppression pool temperature of 92&deg;F as realistic values is that evaluation of 7 years of Tennessee River and suppression pool water temperature data between January 1, 2008 and January 1, 2015, Att 39-6

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses determined that these temperatures bound plant operating temperatures more than 95% of the time. This serves as an appropriate basis for establishing a realistic upper bound for these temperatures.
SECY-11-0014 (Ref. 4.8) provides guidance on the use of realistic or nominal inputs for special events such as a fire event. For the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant EPU, when a nominal K-value was selected or established, the heat exchanger test data available for comparison to the selected realistic or nominal value was limited to that reported in the NFPA 805 LAR (Ref. 4.3) Attachment X and associated RAI responses (Ref. 4.4). These reported as tested fouling resistances of 0.0005164 and 0.000674 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, are shown on Figure 1, and resulted in a large difference between the test results and the EPU design (0.001521 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU) fouling resistance. To provide confidence in establishing a reasonable realistic or nominal heat exchanger fouling resistance, industry literature was consulted for establishing the realistic or nominal fouling resistance.
EPRI Test Report 107397, Service Water Heat Exchanger Testing Guidelines, (Ref. 4.2) section 3.4.2 provides guidance in establishing an acceptance criterion for test uncertainty to determine whether a given test result is acceptable. The guidance suggests that an initial acceptance criterion can be established in terms of the heat transfer rate, at +/- 25 percent of the difference between the design and clean (zero fouling resistance) heat transfer rates.
This provided a reasonable bound for establishing the expected deviation from a design heat transfer rate to an actual or tested heat transfer rate. The realistic or nominal fouling resistance was determined by taking 25 percent of the difference between the EPU fire event design heat transfer rate and the clean heat transfer rate and adding that to the EPU design heat transfer rate to obtain the heat transfer rate corresponding to the realistic or nominal fouling resistance. The results of this computation are provided in Table 4 where this process was followed to determine the fire event K-value, 308 BTU/sec-&deg;F. The value chosen for the RHR heat exchanger fire event nominal K-value was 307 BTU/sec-&deg;F, which is within the range from 287 BTU/sec-&deg;F (EPU design) to 308 BTU/sec-&deg;F.
The nominal fire event K-value of 307 BTU/sec-&deg;F represents an approximate 7 percent increase from the EPU fire event design K-value of 287 BTU/sec-&deg;F (computed using the EPU design fouling resistance, 0.001521 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, 7500 gpm RHR flow at 208.0&deg;F, 4500 gpm RHRSW flow at 92.0&deg;F and 4.57 percent of the tubes plugged). This approximate 7 percent increase in the EPU fire event design K-value to the EPU fire event nominal K-value compared well with an NRC staff assessment (Ref. 4.6) where conservative and realistic RHR heat exchanger K-values were determined and compared at 147 and 158 BTU/sec-&deg;F, respectively. The increase from 147 BTU/sec-&deg;F to 158 BTU/sec-&deg;F constitutes an approximate 7.5 percent increase in the conservative or design basis K-value, which compares well to the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant 7 percent increase described above.
Using the nominal fire event K-value of 307 BTU/sec-&deg;F, Equation 1 was used to solve for the resulting EPU nominal fire event fouling resistance, 0.001097 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU (see Table 3). This fouling resistance is used for comparison to Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant RHR heat exchanger test results graphically presented in Figure 1. Figure 1 provides the results from the tests performed to date.
Comparison of the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant RHR heat exchanger test results (see Tables 5, 6 and 7) to the EPU design and nominal fouling resistances shown provided in Figure 1Table 4 leads to two clearthe observations: that (1) the results from the 2A RHR heat exchanger as-found test (two years since last cleaning) closely match the EPU fire event Att 39-7

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses nominal fouling resistance and, (2) the 2A RHR heat exchanger as-left test results (0 years since last cleaning) when compared with the 2A RHR heat exchanger as-found test (two years since last cleaning) results and the other three heat exchanger test results show that the 2A RHR heat exchanger performance, when expressed in terms of fouling resistance, is not as good as the other heat exchangers. These (identical in design) heat exchangers when subjected to identical operating conditions would be expected to demonstrate essentially identical performance; however, the as-tested performance of the 2A RHR heat exchanger differs from that of the other heat exchangers. This apparent anomalous performance of the 2A RHR heat exchanger has been entered into the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant corrective action program to identify the condition and evaluate the issue to resolution.
The difference between the RHR heat exchanger test results (including the 2A RHR heat exchanger) and the EPU design fouling resistance serves to demonstrate the conservatism embedded in the event analyses where the RHR heat exchanger K-value is determined from the EPU design fouling resistance.
The difference between the RHR heat exchanger test results (excluding the 2A RHR heat exchanger) and the EPU fire event nominal fouling resistance serves to demonstrate that the EPU fire event nominal fouling resistance is appropriate for use in fire event analyses.
The fire event sensitivity case with the EHPMU pump reported in PUSAR Section 2.6.5.2, PUSAR Tables 2.6-4 and 2.6-4a did not use a realistic or nominal heat exchanger fouling resistance but instead used a K-value, 287 BTU/sec-&deg;F, corresponding to the EPU design 2
fouling resistance, 0.001521 hr-ft -&deg;F/BTU. The sensitivity case demonstrates defense-in-depth for a fire event.
The current licensed thermal power (CLTP) analysis in Table 4 summarizes the fire event analysis parameters and the K-value used in the analysis submitted in the NFPA 805 LAR.
As indicated in Table 4, the CLTP NFPA 805 analysis was performed assuming 4400 gpm RHRSW flow and an RHR heat exchanger K-value of 270 BTU/sec-&deg;F. For EPU the RHRSW flow rate is 4500 gpm and the RHR heat exchanger K-value is 307 290 BTU/sec-&deg;F, as discussed above. No modifications are required to effect the change in the RHRSW flow rate from 4400 gpm to 4500 gpm as the CLTP analysis was performed using a conservatively low flow rate compared to the actual RHRSW flow capability during a fire.
Anticipated Transient Without Scram (ATWS) - PUSAR Sections 2.6.5.2 and 2.8.5.7 The limiting ATWS event with respect to peak suppression pool temperature is the ATWS loss-of-offsite power (LOOP) event (two RHR pumps and two RHR heat exchangers credited) which resulted in a peak suppression pool temperature of 173.3&deg;F. The most limiting non-LOOP (four RHR pumps and four RHR heat exchangers credited) ATWS event is the Main Steam Isolation Valve Closure-End of Cycle (MSIVC-EOC) or Pressure Regulator Failure Open (PRFO) event both of which experiences a peak suppression pool temperature of approximately 171.7171.8&deg;F. When the combined transient effects of pool temperature, pool level and pump suction losses are considered, the limiting ATWS event from a net positive suction head (NPSH) perspective is a non-LOOP event (MSIVC-EOC or PRFO-EOC). For Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant EPU ECCS pump NPSH, MSIVC-EOC or PRFO-EOC are remains the most limiting ATWS events.
An RHR heat exchanger K-value of 277 BTU/sec-&deg;F was used in each the ATWS-LOOP analysis. The K-value corresponds to an RHRSW temperature of 95&deg;F, 4500 gpm RHRSW Att 39-8

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses flow, RHR (heat exchanger shell inlet) temperature of 173.3&deg;F (peak suppression pool temperature for ATWS-LOOP event as discussed in PUSAR Sections 2.6.5.2 and 2.8.5.7.2),
6500 gpm RHR flow and 4.575 percent tube plugging, at the EPU design fouling resistance, 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU, is 277.8278.6 BTU/sec-&deg;F. These conditions are applicable for the ATWS-LOOP event where only two heat exchangers in the ATWS unit are credited with mitigating the event.
Where four RHR heat exchangers in the same unit are credited with mitigating the ATWS event, system hydraulic resistances in common RHRSW piping on the discharge side of the RHR heat exchangers and in the discharge piping where the two loops combine into common piping, results in restrict the achievable RHRSW flow being restricted such that onlyto slightly greater than 4000 3800 gpm is passed through each of the four heat exchangers when four heat exchangers are simultaneously placed in service for a single Browns Ferry Unit. Therefore, the RHR HX K-value is computed at a conservatively low RHRSW flow rate of 3800 gpm. This explains the reduction in the RHRSW flow rate per heat exchanger from 4500 gpm per heat exchanger in the two heat exchanger alignment described above, to 4000 3800 gpm per heat exchanger in the four heat exchanger alignment. The effect of this condition on the EPU ATWS analyses is described below.
The analyses K-value of 277 259 BTU/sec-&deg;F used in the non-LOOP ATWS events, corresponds to ais bounded by the heat transfer capability, 260.5 BTU/sec-&deg;F, at the design 2
fouling resistance of, 0.0012200.001562 hr-ft -&deg;F/BTU. This was determined using Equation 1 with RHRSW temperature at 95&deg;F, 4000 3800 gpm RHRSW flow, RHR (heat exchanger shell inlet) temperature of 171.7171.8&deg;F, 6500 gpm RHR flow, and 4.575 percent tube plugging. This reduced fouling resistance of 0.001220 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU is justified because it is 2
conservative relative to the EPU nominal fouling resistance of 0.001097 hr-ft -&deg;F/BTU (see Figure 1). In addition, the difference between the RHR heat exchanger test results (including the 2A RHR heat exchanger) and this reduced fouling resistance value serves to demonstrate thatThus, the this fouling resistance value of 259 is appropriate for use in ATWS event analyses.
2.3    RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring An NFPA 805 lIn Attachment X, Section X.4 of Reference 4.3, TVA stated icensing condition requires that the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant RHR heat exchangers would be subject toare included in a performance monitoring program to provide assurance that heat exchanger fouling that could affect the required heat transfer rate is detected and corrected in a timely manner. Reference 4.7 also included a commitment (i.e., Commitment 2) to implement a The RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program heat exchanger monitoring program to provides assurance that the RHR heat exchanger performance is maintained for consistencyconsistent with analytical assumptions associated with the adoption of the NFPA 805 standard. Because the revised performance monitoring program has not been developed at this time, the commitment specifies implementation within six months following NRC issuance of the license amendment approving adoption of the NFPA 805 standard for the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant. In addition, TVA will revise the program that monitors Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant RHR heat exchanger performance for consistency with the assumptions used in analyses supporting EPU prior to EPU license amendment implementation. TVA intends to include the RHR Heat Exchanger Performance Monitoring Program in Technical Specifications where specific program attributes are identified. These program attributes include, as requirements in the program, periodic heat exchanger Att 39-9

BFN EPU LAR Attachment 39, Revision 1 RHR Heat Exchanger K-values Utilized in EPU Containment Analyses inspections and heat exchanger performance testing requirements to ensure fouling factor assumptions and tube plugging assumptions in the EPU containment analyses remain valid.
3.0 Summary and Conclusion Based on the analyses described above, the RHR heat exchanger fouling resistances and K-values used in the EPU event analyses are appropriate:
* The EPU design fouling resistance is 0.0015210.001562 hr-ft2-&deg;F/BTU for the limiting NFPA 805 (fire) event. This was determined using a heat exchanger K-value of 265 290 BTU/sec-&deg;F with an RHR flow rate of 6500 7500 gpm at RHR (heat exchanger shell side inlet) temperature of 179.0207.7&deg;F, RHRSW flow rate of 4000 4500 gpm at RHRSW inlet temperature of 9588&deg;F with 4.57 percent tubes plugged; 2
* The EPU nominal fouling resistance is 0.001097 hr-ft -&deg;F/BTU; and
* RHR heat exchanger as-found test results are provided in Tables 5, 6 and 7. These results in combination with Table 4, serve to demonstrate that the actual heat transfer capability at the EPU design and nominal fouling resistance meets or values areexceeds the heat transfer capability (K-value) credited in the containment analysis. Therefore, the K-values used in the event analyses are appropriate for use in the associated event analyses.
In addition, periodic RHR heat exchanger performance testing will be used to demonstrate that actual heat exchanger performance exceeds the performance credited in the analyses.

2.0     EXECUTIVE 

==SUMMARY==

As stated above, this evaluation provides a description of the methods Zachry uses to evaluate thermal performance test data for the BFN RHR heat exchangers in support of BFNs response to NRC SCVB RAI-32. Specifically, Zachry was requested to provide the following information:
(a)    Describe the statistical evaluation method of the test data with discussion of how the uncertainty analysis methodology described in Chapter 4 of EPRI TR-3002005340 (Reference 5.1) is implemented for evaluating the Random Standard Uncertainty and Systematic Standard Uncertainty combined together.
(b)    Justify that the Combined Standard Uncertainty (combination of Random Standard Uncertainty and Systematic Standard Uncertainty) in the test result is conservative.
The following discussion is provided in response to item (a) above:
Zachry performs a statistical reduction of the test data and assesses the uncertainty of the test result through the major contributing error sources typically observed in service water heat exchanger testing as described in Sections 4.2 through 4.7. The methods Zachry uses are consistent with the guidance provided in EPRI TR-3002005340 (Reference 5.1) and EPRI TR-107397 (Reference 5.2).
The methodology for evaluating the variability in the test data is currently expressed as the precision error in accordance with Reference 5.2. First, the test data is reduced to time-series and spatial-series parameter averages. Next, the sampling error is determined via the standard deviation of the sample size. The sampling error is representative of the random error as described in Reference 5.2. This approach remains valid in Reference 5.1, but the precision error is referred to as the random standard uncertainty.
The methodology for evaluating the constant off-set of errors observed in the data is currently expressed as the bias error (B) and is the limit of the fixed elemental error. The instrument, spatial, and methodology biases are combined through the square-root-sum-squares (RSS) to determine the combined bias error for the parameters in accordance with Reference 5.2. The analytical uncertainty is also attributed as a bias error source, but is only accounted for with the analytical method being used. In accordance with Reference 5.1, the constant off-set errors are expressed as the systematic standard uncertainty and can be evaluated on a standard deviation level similar to the random standard uncertainty. The instrument, spatial and methodology Page 4 of 15                                    Revision 1 Form: N0302F05                   Revision: 00-00                    Date: 11-2-2011              Page 1 of 1

ZACHRY NUCLEAR, INC.
ENGINEERING EVALUATION 16-E04 DESCRIPTION OF BFN RHR HEAT EXCHANGER TEST DATA EVALUATION ZNI Document Type: QAPD errors have been previously estimated on the basis of a 95% confidence interval; therefore, half of the bias error is functionally equivalent to the systematic standard error, b, as described in Reference 5.1.
To perform the uncertainty analysis, a numerical determination of the sensitivity coefficients is implemented. The uncertainty in the result can be based on two approaches: (i) combining the systematic and random uncertainties to determine the error; or (ii) evaluating the uncertainty in the result with respect to the systematic and random uncertainties individually. The approach to be selected will be consistent with the systematic uncertainties being evaluated as independent error sources or dependent error sources. Both approaches result in a sensitivity coefficient and an uncertainty in the result for each parameter of interest (i.e. shell flow rate, shell inlet temperature, etc.). The overall uncertainty in the test result is the combined uncertainties for each parameter through the square-root-sum-of squares.
The following discussion is provided in response to item (b) above:
The combined standard uncertainty of the result represents the uncertainty in the test result at the standard deviation level as discussed in Section 4.7. This value is expanded by the Students t score based on the desired confidence level, 95% in this case, and the effective degrees of freedom for the test. The resulting expanded uncertainty of the result represents the uncertainty in the test result at a 95% confidence level. Assuming symmetric uncertainties, the test result could be reported as the mean value (&#xb5;) plus or minus the uncertainty (Utest). The test result applies the uncertainty in a conservative fashion. For example, if the performance parameter of interest is fouling resistance, the test result is reported as &#xb5; + Utest. If the performance parameter of interest is the heat transfer rate at Design Limiting Conditions, the test result is reported as  - Utest. Reporting the result in this manner ensures a conservative accounting of the test uncertainty.

==3.0     BACKGROUND==

BFN began conducting thermal performance tests of its RHR heat exchangers in 2012 to verify that the heat exchangers are capable of meeting their Design Basis function requirements in support of EPU. Thermal performance tests of the BFN RHR heat exchangers conducted to date have been performed and evaluated following the guidelines of EPRI TR-107397 (Reference 5.2). These guidelines were updated in 2015 and issued as EPRI TR-3002005340 (Reference 5.1). BFN will conduct future tests of the RHR heat exchangers following the Reference 5.1 guidelines (Reference 5.3).

ZACHRY NUCLEAR, INC.
ENGINEERING EVALUATION 16-E04 DESCRIPTION OF BFN RHR HEAT EXCHANGER TEST DATA EVALUATION ZNI Document Type: QAPD 4.0     EVALUATION 4.1     General Test Method In a typical six-point test of a water-to-water heat exchanger, the following parameters are measured using either permanently installed plant equipment or recorded by a data acquisition system (DAS) via temporary test instrumentation:
: 1. Tube-side inlet temperature (&deg;F);
: 2. Tube-side outlet temperature (&deg;F);
: 3. Tube-side flow rate (gpm);
: 4. Shell-side inlet temperature (&deg;F);
: 5. Shell-side outlet temperature (&deg;F); and
: 6. Shell-side flow rate (gpm).
Measurements are typically recorded at a predetermined frequency over the duration of the test.
Longer test durations provide a more accurate estimate of the true heat exchanger performance by virtue of the resulting larger data set. However, the benefit gained in collecting more than 31 data points is not significant. This practical limitation of a larger data set has led to typical tests being conducted over a 30 minute period with data recorded every minute. Once the data has been recorded, statistical reduction methods are used to determine a nominal value for each recorded parameter along with an estimate of the uncertainty in each measurement at a 95%
confidence interval. Evaluation of measurement uncertainty takes into account random and systematic sources of error as described in Sections 4.3 and 4.4, respectively.
The following measurement techniques have been used to record data for the BFN RHR heat exchanger performance tests: tube-side inlet temperature has been measured using four temporary surface mounted temperature sensors secured to the outside of the Service Water (SW) piping; tube-side outlet temperature has been measured using eight temporary surface mounted temperature sensors secured to the outside of the SW piping; tube-side flow rate has been measured using a temporary pressure transmitter connected to the plants permanently installed differential pressure meter; shell-side inlet temperature has been measured using four temporary surface mounted temperature sensors secured to the outside of the RHR piping; shell-side outlet temperature has been measured using eight temporary surface mounted temperature sensors secured to the outside of the RHR piping; and shell-side flow rate has been measured using a temporary pressure transmitter connected to the plants permanently installed differential pressure meter.
A resistance to heat transfer is determined from the average measurements based on a mass and energy balance of the tube and shell sides along with a mean temperature difference (MTD) evaluation. This resistance is a function of the measured parameters and is, therefore, subject to the uncertainty of the measurements. Sections 4.2 through 4.7 provide additional detail regarding the statistical reduction techniques and uncertainty analysis used to determine the demonstrated performance of the RHR heat exchangers.

For parameters measured with a single instrument (e.g., tube-side and shell-side flow rates), the time average value of the data points is calculated as follows:
Equation 1 where:
time-average value of the measurements number of data points in the data segment (i.e., number of time steps) single measurement at time step "i" For parameters measured with multiple instruments (e.g., inlet and outlet temperatures), the spatial average value of the data points is calculated as follows:
Equation 2 where:
spatial-average reading of the measurements number of data points in the data segment (i.e., number of time steps) number of locations at which the parameter was measured (i.e.,
number of sensors) single measurement at time step i and location j 4.3     Determination of Random Uncertainty Repeated measurements of a test parameter over the duration of a test will produce random errors that are observed as scatter in the data. This random error is approximated by a Gaussian distribution about the mean, , as demonstrated in Figure 1.

average value for all measurement locations at time step "i" spatial-average reading of the measurements (calculated using Equation 2) number of data points in the data segment (i.e., number of time steps)
Finally, the standard deviation of the sample mean is calculated as follows for all measurements regardless of how many sensors are used:
Equation 5 where:
standard deviation of the sample mean standard deviation of the data sample (calculated using Equation 3 for single sensor measurements or Equation 4 for multiple sensor measurements) number of data points in the data segment (i.e., number of time steps)
The standard deviation of the sample mean provides an estimate of the random uncertainty in each measured parameter at a 95% confidence interval. This approach is consistent with the methodology of EPRI TR-107397 (Reference 5.2) and TR-3002005340 (Reference 5.1) in that the sampling error of the data is translated as the source of the random error. It is noted that Reference 5.1 recommends using a pooled sample standard deviation for parameters measured using multiple sensors (i.e., temperatures). However, Reference 5.1 also states that either method is acceptable as the random component is relatively insignificant for most heat exchanger testing performed under steady conditions making the difference between the two methods insignificant.
Zachry uses a hand calculation to determine the random uncertainty of each of the measured parameters.
4.4     Determination of Systematic Uncertainty Systematic uncertainty is attributed to those factors that are expected to remain constant for each measurement over the duration of the test (e.g., instrument drift). Because these sources of uncertainty remain constant over the duration of the test, they can be harder to detect.
Systematic uncertainty is demonstrated graphically in Figure 2.

: 1. Instrument bias;
: 2. Method bias;
: 3. Spatial bias; and
: 4. Analytical uncertainty.
Each of these contributors to systematic uncertainty is discussed in greater detail in Sections 4.4.1 through 4.4.4.
4.4.1   Instrument Bias The instrument bias is influenced by the instrument calibration uncertainty as well as the uncertainty introduced by transmitters and the DAS itself. Instrument calibration uncertainties for the temperature sensors, current sensors, and differential pressure transmitters used for the BFN RHR heat exchanger tests are provided by instrument calibration records. These individual components are combined as the square root of the sum of the squares (RSS) using Equation 6 to provide an estimate of the instrument bias at a 95% confidence interval.

parameter instrument bias uncertainty individual bias contribution of the ith element out of J total contributors 4.4.2   Method Bias The method bias of a measurement is assessed from an evaluation of the engineering or physical principles causing the error. For example, fluid temperatures are measured by surface mounted sensors attached to the outside of the pipe conveying the fluid. The resulting temperature measurement is an approximation of the fluid temperature, the uncertainty of which is affected by conductive heat transfer through the liquid film, fouling layer on the inside of the pipe, and the pipe wall itself as well as convective heat transfer with the surrounding environment. Zachry uses a hand calculation to determine the method bias of the temperature measurements.
The method bias of the flow measurements is caused predominately by the uncertainty associated with calculation of the discharge coefficient of the flow elements themselves.
The uncertainty of the discharge coefficient is affected by such factors as frequency of calibration and proximity to flow disturbances (i.e., elbows or valves) installed in the upstream and downstream piping. It is noted that the current sensor and DP transmitter calibration uncertainties are also accounted for in the method bias analysis for the flow measurements. Zachry uses a hand calculation to combine the individual sources of method bias for the flow measurements as the RSS in the same manner that Equation 6 is used for instrument bias.
4.4.3   Spatial Bias Parameter spatial bias uncertainties are a result of using point measurements to determine a bulk parameter. Spatial bias applies to temperature measurements for the BFN RHR heat exchanger performance tests. The spatial bias of the temperature measurements is calculated as follows:
                             %&' (   "# #$
                    "# #$                                                                           Equation 7 where:

Application of these methods to data gathered under transient conditions would introduce an additional source of analytical uncertainty in the determination of the test result. The BFN RHR heat exchanger tests are conducted in such a manner as to provide steady-state conditions. Fluid inlet temperatures are evaluated to confirm the existence of steady-state conditions. Therefore, evaluation of the uncertainty due to transient conditions is not typically required.
4.4.5   Combining Individual Components of Systematic Uncertainty Zachry uses a hand calculation to combine the individual components of systematic uncertainty as a RSS using Equation 9 to provide an estimate of the total systematic uncertainty at a 95% confidence interval consistent with the guidance provided in References 5.1 and 5.2.

This creates 12 iterations to address the measurement error in both the positive and negative directions. Four additional iterations are performed to account for the analytical uncertainty associated with the film coefficient as discussed in Section 4.4.4. The methodology of the parametric analysis is in agreement with the numerical approach for determining sensitivity coefficients as described in References 5.1 and 5.2.
PROTO-HX performs the following steps for each iteration of the parametric analysis involving a change in one of the six measured parameters (excerpts from Reference 5.6 are provided in Attachment A for information):
: 1. A test heat load (QTest) is calculated using Equation 154 from Reference 5.6.
: 2. An inside film coefficient at the test conditions is calculated using the Petukhov-Kirilloc correlation as described in Section 9.7 of Reference 5.6.
: 3. An outside film coefficient at the test conditions is calculated as described in Section 9.8 of Reference 5.6.
: 4. An overall heat transfer coefficient (UTest) is calculated using Equation 148 from Reference 5.6.
: 5. A test fouling resistance is calculated using Equation 162 from Reference 5.6.

uncertainty in the film coefficients). It is noted that the overall heat transfer coefficient (UTest) is solely a function of the measured parameters and, therefore, is held constant at the nominal test conditions for each iteration involving analytical uncertainty.
The output of the parametric analysis (i.e., fouling resistances from each iteration) is used as input to a hand calculation to determine a sensitivity coefficient for each parameter as follows:

k RO             S R                                                                   Equation 12 This uncertainty is an estimate of the overall test uncertainty at a 95% confidence interval.
Assuming symmetric uncertainties, the estimated heat exchanger performance at the 95%
confidence interval is the nominal value (&#xb5;) plus or minus the uncertainty (Utest). For the case of the BFN RHR heat exchangers where fouling is the performance parameter of interest, the nominal fouling resistance (Rf) is calculated using Equation 162 of Reference 5.6 at the nominal test conditions and the uncertainty (Utest) is calculated using Equation 12 above. The resulting estimate of fouling resistance at the 95% confidence interval is Rf +/- Utest. However, the test result is reported as Rf + Utest to ensure a conservative accounting of the test uncertainty.

ENCLOSURE 9 GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy Affidavit for NEDC-33860P, Revision 0

NEDC-33860P Revision 0 GEH Proprietary Information - Class II (Internal)
GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC AFFIDAVIT I, James F. Harrison, state as follows:
(1) I am Vice President, Fuel Licensing, Regulatory Affairs, GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy Americas LLC (GEH), and have been delegated the function of reviewing the information described in paragraph (2) which is sought to be withheld, and have been authorized to apply for its withholding.
(2) The information sought to be withheld is contained in GEH proprietary report, NEDC-33860P, Safety Analysis Report for Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Units 1, 2, and 3 Extended Power Uprate, Revision 0, dated September 2015. GEH proprietary information within text is identified by a dotted underline within double square brackets. ((This sentence is an example.{3})) Figures and large objects containing GEH proprietary information are identified with double square brackets before and after the object. In all cases, the superscript notation {3} refers to Paragraph (3) of this affidavit, which provides the basis for the proprietary determination.
(3) In making this application for withholding of proprietary information of which it is the owner or licensee, GEH relies upon the exemption from disclosure set forth in the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 USC Sec. 552(b)(4), and the Trade Secrets Act, 18 USC Sec. 1905, and NRC regulations 10 CFR 9.17(a)(4), and 2.390(a)(4) for trade secrets (Exemption 4). The material for which exemption from disclosure is here sought also qualify under the narrower definition of trade secret, within the meanings assigned to those terms for purposes of FOIA Exemption 4 in, respectively, Critical Mass Energy Project v. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, 975 F2.d 871 (DC Cir. 1992), and Public Citizen Health Research Group v. FDA, 704 F2.d 1280 (DC Cir. 1983).
(4) Some examples of categories of information which fit into the definition of proprietary information are:
: a. Information that discloses a process, method, or apparatus, including supporting data and analyses, where prevention of its use by GEH's competitors without license from GEH constitutes a competitive economic advantage over other companies;
: b. Information which, if used by a competitor, would reduce his expenditure of resources or improve his competitive position in the design, manufacture, shipment, installation, assurance of quality, or licensing of a similar product;
: c. Information which reveals aspects of past, present, or future GEH customer-funded development plans and programs, resulting in potential products to GEH;
: d. Information which discloses patentable subject matter for which it may be desirable to obtain patent protection.

NEDC-33860P Revision 0 GEH Proprietary Information - Class II (Internal)
The information sought to be withheld is considered to be proprietary for the reasons set forth in paragraphs (4)a. and (4)b. above.
(5) To address 10 CFR 2.390(b)(4), the information sought to be withheld is being submitted to NRC in confidence. The information is of a sort customarily held in confidence by GEH, and is in fact so held. The information sought to be withheld has, to the best of my knowledge and belief, consistently been held in confidence by GEH, no public disclosure has been made, and it is not available in public sources. All disclosures to third parties, including any required transmittals to NRC, have been made, or must be made, pursuant to regulatory provisions or proprietary agreements which provide for maintenance of the information in confidence. Its initial designation as proprietary information, and the subsequent steps taken to prevent its unauthorized disclosure, are as set forth in paragraphs (6) and (7) following.
(6) Initial approval of proprietary treatment of a document is made by the manager of the originating component, the person most likely to be acquainted with the value and sensitivity of the information in relation to industry knowledge, or subject to the terms under which it was licensed to GEH.
(7) The procedure for approval of external release of such a document typically requires review by the staff manager, project manager, principal scientist, or other equivalent authority for technical content, competitive effect, and determination of the accuracy of the proprietary designation. Disclosures outside GEH are limited to regulatory bodies, customers, and potential customers, and their agents, suppliers, and licensees, and others with a legitimate need for the information, and then only in accordance with appropriate regulatory provisions or proprietary agreements.
(8) The information identified in paragraph (2), above, is classified as proprietary because it contains detailed results and conclusions regarding supporting evaluations of the safety-significant changes necessary to demonstrate the regulatory acceptability of the analysis for a GEH Boiling Water Reactor (BWR). The analysis utilized analytical models and methods, including computer codes, which GEH has developed, obtained NRC approval of, and applied to perform evaluations of Power Uprates for a GEH BWR. The development of the evaluation process along with the interpretation and application of the analytical results is derived from the extensive experience database that constitutes a major GEH asset.
The development of the evaluation process along with the interpretation and application of the analytical results is derived from the extensive experience database that constitutes a major GEH asset.
(9) Public disclosure of the information sought to be withheld is likely to cause substantial harm to GEH's competitive position and foreclose or reduce the availability of profit-making opportunities. The information is part of GEH's comprehensive BWR safety and technology base, and its commercial value extends beyond the original development cost. The value of the technology base goes beyond the extensive physical database and analytical NEDC-33860P Revision 0 Affidavit                                                Page 2 of 3

NEDC-33860P Revision 0 GEH Proprietary Information - Class II (Internal) methodology and includes development of the expertise to determine and apply the appropriate evaluation process. In addition, the technology base includes the value derived from providing analyses done with NRC-approved methods.
The research, development, engineering, analytical and NRC review costs comprise a substantial investment of time and money by GEH.
The precise value of the expertise to devise an evaluation process and apply the correct analytical methodology is difficult to quantify, but it clearly is substantial.
GEH's competitive advantage will be lost if its competitors are able to use the results of the GEH experience to normalize or verify their own process or if they are able to claim an equivalent understanding by demonstrating that they can arrive at the same or similar conclusions.
The value of this information to GEH would be lost if the information were disclosed to the public. Making such information available to competitors without their having been required to undertake a similar expenditure of resources would unfairly provide competitors with a windfall, and deprive GEH of the opportunity to exercise its competitive advantage to seek an adequate return on its large investment in developing and obtaining these very valuable analytical tools.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.
Executed on this 17th day of September 2015.
