1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 GENERAL

The licensing analysis presented in the following sections is applicable to Rochester Gas and Electric's R.E.Ginna Nuclear Power Plant.The Ginna Nuclear Plant is located approximately 16 miles east of Rochester in Wayne County, New York.The reactor is a Westinghouse 2-Loop Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR)design configuration, and utilizes a 14 x 14 fuel assembly.The plant's spent fuel pool was originally racked in 1968.Subsequently, the pool was re-racked in 1977 and 1985.The present pool is configured with two types of racks.Region 1 consists of three flux trap type racks providing storage for 176 fuel assemblies, and Region 2 consists of six high density fixed poison (Boraflex) type racks accommodating 840 fuel assemblies for a total capacity of 1016 fuel assemblies.

The new spent fuel pool rack analysis contained in this report provides the necessary licensing analyses to reconfigure the pool to accommodate a net increase of 353 locations.

This is accomplished by retaining the six existing high density racks (840 minus 12 for attachment of new racks=828 locations), and installing new Borated Stainless Steel (BSS)racks with up to 541 additional storage locations for a new total of 1,369 locations.

The analyses presented herein demonstrate that a total of 1,879 fuel assemblies can be accommodated in these 1,369 locations by storing consolidated rod canisters in some spent fuel locations.

The number of fuel rods contained in the intact fuel assemblies and/or consolidated rod storage canisters stored in these locations is limited to no more than the number of rods contained in 1,879 fuel assemblies (179 fuel rods per assembly x 1,879 assemblies

=336,341 fuel rods.)The re-configured pool will have four types of racks in two regions.Region 1 will contain only&esh fueVspent fuel racks designated Type 3.Region 2 will contain spent fuel racks including the existing Boraflex racks, designated Type 1, and new high density racks designated Types 2 and 4.The Type 2 racks will occupy the main portion of the available space while the Type 4 racks will be placed between the existing Type 1 Boraflex racks and the pool wall.The Regions and Types are summarized below;Figure 1.1-1 shows the new pool arrangement.

BSS racks for fresh fueVspent fuel Existing Boraflex racks for spent fuel Interior BSS racks for spent fuel Peripheral BSS racks for spent fuel*Only Type 2 and 3 racks will be installed at this time.The Type 4 racks are being presented as a means of achieving the maximum storage capacity of the pool and to license the configuration, but will not be installed, unless needed in the future.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 19 The new racks will consist of a grid arrangement of vertical square-section parallel cells each designed to take one fuel assembly.The distance between cells is minimized by inserting neutron absorber plates between the cells to ensure adequate margin against criticality.

To facilitate manufacturing and assembly, these racks are not of monolithic construction but are made of modules placed side by side.Each module is comprised of multiple cells and is sized to match the geometry of the storage pool zone available and to allow for handling constraints.

The racks are designed for a forty-year service life.The materials used in their construction provide corrosion resistance in pure or borated water and dimensional and structural stability under irradiation.

In addition, their structure ensures the integrity of the nuclear fuel stored in them under all circumstances, notably in the event of an earthquake.

The racks use borated stainless steel neutron absorbers in the form of rigid plates which have not been subjected to operations like bending, welding, or mechanical fastening which can reduce their strength and subsequent integrity under operating conditions.

The fabrication method allows the neutron absorber plates to be held in place without bending, welding, or mechanical fastening.

1.2 NEW SPENT FUEL POOL CONFIGURATION Figure 1.1-1 shows the general layout of the re-configured spent fuel pool.The racks are located in two regions as detailed below.REGION 1-Fresh fuel and spent fuel stored in a checkerboard arrangement.

Type 3: Five borated stainless steel racks accommodating:

145 spent fuel assemblies 144 fresh fuel assemblies 5 damaged fuel assemblies REGION 2-Spent fuel.Type 1: Six existing Boraflex racks accommodating:

840 spent fuel assemblies.

When the six peripheral Type 4 racks are installed, 12 of the 840 locations are used to support the Type 4 racks.Type 2: Two new borated stainless steel racks accommodating:

187 spent fuel assemblies 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 20 Type 4: Six peripheral Borated Stainless Steel racks accommodating:

60 spent fuel assemblies.

The type 4 racks are located between the existing Type 1 Boraflex racks and the pool wall and are attached to the Type 1 racks.1.3 BORATED STAINLESS STEEL RACK DESCRIPTION The racks consist of vertically oriented, square cross-section cells each designed to hold one fuel assembly (see Figure 1.3-1).The number and type of racks, the number of cells per rack, and the total number of cells are shown in Table 1.3-1.The Region 1, Type 3 and Region 2, Type 2 racks are&ee standing and self supporting.

The Region 2, Type 4 racks have two legs each for support and are attached to the Region 2, Type 1 racks to provide lateral support.The dimensions, weight and number of supports for each rack are listed in Table 1.3-2.1.3.1 Description of Region 1, Type 3 Racks These racks accommodate fresh fuel and spent fuel in a checkerboard pattern.The geometry and dimensions of the square cells are given in Figure 1.3-5 and Table 1.3-3.The rack constituent parts are shown in Figures 1.3-1 to 1.3-6 and described below.a)Cells for Fresh Fuel Assemblies (Figure 1.3-2, callout 2)-These cells are composed of: Four Borated Stainless Steel (BSS)sheets forming a square cell~The sheets are linked together at the corners and rest on the base plate.Eight horizontal Stainless Steel (SS)belts maintaining the BSS geometry and ensuring a very precise pitch dimension.

Seven of these belts are located in the same vertical position as the seven intermediate spacer grids on the fuel assemblies.

Stainless Steel square cross-section funnels are welded to the adjacent SS cells.These funnels guide the fresh fuel assembly into the cells and prevent the inadvertent extraction of the BSS sheets when a fuel assembly is removed.In the cells facing a pool wall or the cask area, the corresponding BSS sheet facing the wall or the cask area is replaced by a SS sheet.b)Cells for Spent Fuel Assemblies (Figure 1.3-2, callout 1).These cells are composed of: External SS square tubes.The tubes are formed either by welding two channel sections or by expanding a round tube into a square tube.Four internal BSS sheets.The sheets are linked together at the corners and rest on lower tabs which are welded to the surrounding stainless steel cell walls as in the Type 2 racks (Figure 1.3-10, callout 8).At the top, stainless steel tabs are also welded to the surrounding SS cell walls to restrain the BSS plates from upward motion.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 21

In the cells facing a pool wall or the cask area, the BSS sheet facing the wall or the cask area is replaced by a SS sheet.c)Base Plate-This plate provides a continuous horizontal surface for supporting the fuel assemblies (Figure 1.3-3, callout 1).Holes in the base plate, concentric to each cell, provide the necessary path for the cooling water flow.Grooves are machined on the upper surface of the base plate for positioning each square cell.This groove ensures a very precise center-to-center spacing of the cells (pitch).The SS square tubes are fillet welded to the base plate.d)Connecting Tabs-The SS cells are joined together along their length by SS connecting tabs welded to the SS square tube faces (Figure 1.3-6).This forms the cells in each rack into a continuous structure.

Rack assembly is performed in a machined assembly fixture resulting in a very precise center-to-center spacing of the cell (pitch).e)Support Legs-The rack support legs are of the adjustable type (Figure 1.3-3, callout 2).The number of support legs on each rack is shown in Table 1.3-2.Each leg is composed of four pieces: An upper SS part that is welded to the base plate and containing four flow holes for cooling.A threaded pin with a convex spherical shape at its bottom.The pin is made of ASTM 630 steel in order to avoid galling.A SS support plate with a concave spherical bearing surface in contact with the threaded pin.A SS washer welded to the support plate.f)Flat Plate and Corner Plate-The BSS cells located either on a rack edge or on a rack corner incorporate a SS flat plate or corner plate to restrain the corresponding BSS plate (Figure 1.3-2, callout 7.)1.3.2 Description of Region 2, Type 2 Racks This rack design accommodates spent fuel in two types of square cells: SS cells and BSS cells arranged in a checkerboard array.The geometry and dimensions of the square cells are given in Figure 1.3-10 and Table 1.3-4.The rack constituent parts are shown in Figures 1.3-7 to 1.3-12 and described below.a)Stainless Steel Cells-These cells are made either by welding two channel sections or by expanding a round tube to a square tube (see Figure 1.3-7, callout 1).b)Borated Stainless Steel Cells-These cells are composed of four BSS sheets linked together at the corners forming a square (see Figure 1.3-7, callout 2).The Borated Stainless Steel sheets are supported by a lower tab which is welded to the surrounding stainless steel cells (Figure 1.3-10, callout 8).At the top a stainless steel tab is welded to the SS cell to retain the BSS plates from upward motion (Figure 1.3-10, callout 7).51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 22 c)Neutron Absorber Material-The joining tabs on both long edges of each full-length sheet of BSS are laser cut to ensure precise alignment of the sheets (see Figure 1.3-7, callout 2).The BSS sheets are located in front of the active fuel length of the fuel assembly.d)Base Plate-The base plate provides a continuous horizontal surface for supporting the fuel assemblies (Figure 1.3-9, callout 6).Holes in the base plate, concentric to the cells, correspond to the necessary section for the cooling water flow.Grooves are machined on the upper surface of the base plate for positioning each square cell prior to welding.These grooves ensure a very precise center-to-center spacing of the cell (pitch).e)Connecting Tabs-The SS cells are joined together along their length by SS connecting tabs welded to the SS square tube faces (Figure 1.3-12).This forms the cells in each rack into a continuous structure.

Rack assembly is performed in a machined assembly fixture resulting in a very precise center-to-center spacing of the cell (pitch).f)Support Legs-Theracksupportlegsareoftheadjustable type(Figure1.3-9,callout5).

The number of support legs on each rack is shown in Table 1.3-2.Each leg is composed of four pieces: An upper SS part that is welded to the base plate and containing four flow holes for cooling.A threaded pin with a convex spherical shape at its bottom.The pin is made of ASTM 630 steel in order to avoid galling.A SS support plate with a concave spherical bearing surface in contact with the threaded pin.A SS washer welded to the support plate.g)Flat Plate and Corner Plate-The BSS cells located either on a rack edge or on a rack corner incorporate a SS flat plate or corner plate to restrain the corresponding BSS plate.1.3.3 Description of Region 2, Type 4 Racks The rack design employs square cell locations.

The racks and their constituent parts are shown in Figure 1.3-13).a)Cells-These SS cells are made either by welding two channel sections or by expanding a round tube to a square tube.BSS sheets are inserted between adjacent cells.Each BSS sheet is continuous over the active length of a fuel assembly.The lower part of the BSS sheets rest on the base plate.Qn the sides facing the existing Boraflex racks and the pool wall, there are no BSS sheets.The geometry and dimensions of the square cells are given in Figure 1.3-14 and Table 1.3-5.b)Base Plate-The base plate provides a continuous horizontal surface for supporting the fuel assemblies.

Holes in the base plate, concentric to the cells, correspond to the necessary section for the cooling water flow.Grooves are machined on the upper surface of the base plate for positioning each square cell prior to welding.These grooves ensure a very precise center-to-center spacing of the cell (pitch).51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 23 c)Connecting Tabs-On the cell sides facing the existing Boraflex racks and the pool wall, connecting tabs are welded between the SS square tube faces.This forms each rack into a continuous structure.

d)Rack Attachment

-In the upper part and the lower part of the rack, two connecting devices attach each Type 4 rack to an existing Borafiex rack (Figure 1.3-13.)Each upper connecting device consists of a square tube inserted into a cell of the existing Boraflex rack, which is taken out of service.Each lower connecting device consists of a locking arm inserted into the cooling flow hole in the existing Boraflex rack.e)Support Legs-There are two support legs on each Type 4 rack.The rack support legs are of the adjustable type.Each legs is composed of four pieces: An upper SS part that is welded to the base plate and containing four flow holes for cooling.A threaded pin with a convex spherical shape at its bottom.The pin is made of ASTM 630 steel in order to avoid galling.A SS support plate with a concave spherical bearing surface in contact with the threaded pin.A SS washer welded to the support plate.1.3.4 Neutron Absorber Material The neutron absorber material is borated stainless'teel (BSS)sheet.It is a type 304 austenitic chromium stainless steel modified by the addition of boron.The BSS is inserted in the racks for neutron absorption but, due to the design of the racks, no stresses are induced in the BSS.Moreover, the BSS sheets are fabricated using processes designed to prevent the formation of residual stresses.The neutron"absorber material is borated stainless steel (BSS)type 304 B6/B7 in accordance with ASTM Specification A 887-89.The minimum percentage of boron in the BSS is 1.70 in weight%.The chemical composition ofborated stainless steel to be used at Ginna is in accordance with ASTM A 887-89 type 304 B6/B7, as listed below: Blamed Carbon Manganese Phosphorous Sulfur Silicon Chromium Nickel Boron Maximum~Wi~~ht 0 0.08 2.00 0.045 0.030 0.75 18.00-20.00 12.00-15.00 1.70 (min.)51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report j Page 24 Boron is added to the austenitic stainless steel for its neutron absorption properties.

It is present as an alloying element and not as particles in a mixture.The microstructure consists of an austenitic stainless steel matrix with a fine, uniform dispersion of complex chromium borides.The uniformity of the boron distribution is ensured by the manufacturing practice and may be confirmed by a number of methods, including elemental and isotopic boron analysis or direct attenuation measurement of samples taken from the finished sheet.When compared to plain 304 type stainless steel, borated stainless steels have higher strength but lower ductility and lower impact resistance.

However, these properties have no impact on the Ginna rack design since the borated stainless steel plates are not part of the rack structure.

Borated stainless steels are used for neutron attenuation in spent nuclear fuel storage pool racks and in cask baskets for storage and transportation of spent fuel.These applications dictate that the borated stainless steel be exposed to aqueous environments with and without boric acid.The BSS to be used in the Ginna racks has exceptional resistance to corrosion by electrolytic hydration, oxidation, or other chemical reactions in borated or pure water for the following reasons: Austenitic stainless steels are not susceptible to any type of corrosion leading to hydride products.In BSS, boron is present as an alloying element which eliminates microcell effects and not as a dispersion of an heterogeneous boron component.

The proposed design, wherein the neutron absorber material is neither bent nor welded, thus preventing any cracking or thermal alteration of the metal, is an essential factor that also contributes to ensuring corrosion-resistance of this material.Early studies of the corrosion behavior BSS with boron contents up to 2.3 wt%confirmed that BSS exhibits corrosion resistance similar to that of Type 304 stainless steel in environments present in nuclear reactors"".

Corrosion rates for BSS containing 1.35 wt%boron in boiling 10%nitric acid have also been measured".

The results were consistent with other stainless steel behavior with a rapid change in weight (passivation) within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> and no further weight change.The maximum penetration was 0.09 mils.Corrosion tests of BSS with boron contents of 1.0 wt%and 1.75 wt%exposed to 2000 PPM boric acid solutions at 154'F for six month durations have also been recently reported'~.

The 154'F test temperature represents the maximum normal operating temperature in spent fuel pools.Various coupon configurations representing simple immersion, creviced, and galvanically-coupled conditions were included in these tests.The test showed essentially no detectable corrosion for all test conditions.

There are no significant changes to the mechanical properties of borated stainless steel due to exposure to the levels of irradiation experienced over the design life of the Ginna fuel storage racks".1.3.5 Structural Materials The principal structural materials are stainless steel meeting the following standards:

~ASTM A 240 for structure~ASTM A 312 for welded pipes expanded to square tubes 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 25

~ASTM A 564 for bar of adjustable support~ASTM A 479 for support legs.~ASTM A 630 for threaded pins in support legs These materials, described further in Section 3, are of proven durability in spent fuel pools.1.4 SUPPLIER QUALIFICATION AND EXPERIENCE 1.4.1 Team Qualifications The Team of Framatome Technologies, Inc.(FTI), Societe Atlantique de Techniques Avancees (ATEA), Framatome Cogema Fuels (FCF), and Peyla Consulting 2 Management Services, Inc.(PCM)bring an impressive array of experience and resources to the Ginna re-racking project which ensures high quality rack design, fabrication, and installation.

-Borated stainless steel has been used in various applications in Europe for over 20 years.Some of these applications are proprietaiy; the user is generally not willing to provide specific information.

However, information obtained from two European suppliers of borated 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 27 stainless steel, BOHLER Bleche GmbH and KRUPP Thyssen Nirosta GmbH, indicates they have not had any claims concerning the materials that they have supplied.All indications are that the users have been satisfied for up to 20 years with the material supplied.Domestic Experience

-Consolidated Edison Company installed spent fuel storage racks utilizing borated stainless steel as the neutron absorber in the Indian Point Unit 2 spent fuel pool in 1982.In 1990 these racks were removed from the pool in order to expand fuel storage by utilizing more densely packed racks.The racks were viewed during removal&om the spent fuel pool and showed negligible, if any, corrosion; the overall appearance of the racks was good.REFERENCES 1-1 N.R.Grant,"Corrosion of Boron Stainless Steel," Reactor Eng.Div.Quarterly Report, pp 57-60, April-June 1965, ANL 5601 1-2 W.Kermit Anderson and J.S.Theilacker,"Neutron Absorber Materials for Reactor Control," US Atomic Energy Commission, 1962 1-3 T.L.Hoffman and T.L.Adams,"Corrosion of Alloys in Various ICPP Decontaminating Solutions," Phillips Petroleum Co., Atomic Energy Division, April 14, 1961 1-4 R.J.Smith, G.W.Loomis, C.Paul Deltete,"Borated Stainless Steel Applications in Spent fuel Pool Environments," EPRI Report TR 100784, Project 2813-21, June 1992 1-5 S.E.Soliman and Baratta, D.L.Youchison, T.A.Balliet,"Neutron Effects on Borated Stainless Steel," Nuclear Technology, Vol.96, Dec.1991 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 28

2.0 PRINCIPAL

DESIGN CRITERjlA 2.1 General Design Criteria The nuclear fuel storage racks are required to have a minimum service life of 40 years in an environment that includes high radiation fields, continuous exposure to pure and borated water;must be designed to withstand severe accidents due to natural phenomenons (i.e., seismic, tornado missiles), and drop accidents associated with plant operations.

The primary function of the racks is to insure subcriticality of the fresh and spent nuclear fuel for a variety of accident scenarios.

The racks are categorized as safety related products and are designed to comply with stringent licensing requirements of the U.S.Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC), Regulatory Guides;the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (Code),Section III, Subsection NF;American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC)Manual of Steel Construction; various American National Standards Institute (ANSI)and industry standards; and meet other RG&E design specifications.

Four main areas (structural, criticality, thermal-hydraulics, and radiological) are examined and analyzed to meet the design criteria.Sections 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, and 6.0 describe in detail the particular design scenarios and the results of these analyses.2.2 Structural Criteria The storage racks are considered as seismic Class I components and are designed to meet the allowable stresses of the ASME Code,Section III, Subsections NF for Class 3 Component Supports, applicable Regulatory Guides, and Standard Review Plan (SRP)NUREG-0800.

A detailed stress analysis was performed to determine the resulting stresses for deadweight, thermal, seismic and other accident impact loads (i.e., dropped fuel, canisters, and other missiles).

The seismic analysis includes effects due to both Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE)and Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE)loading conditions.

Factors of Safety against gross sliding and overturning of the racks are in accordance with NUREG-0800, SRP, Section 3.S.5, II-S.The spent fuel pool liner shall not permit leakage of the pool water, and the resulting concrete bearing loads shall meet the allowable concrete stresses of ACI 349-85.Impacts that are determined that could penetrate the liner shall be mitigated or prevented by RG&E by invoking the requirements of NUREG-0612, Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants.This may be accomplished by using load paths that would avoid the spent fuel pool area, or designing handling and lifting equipment to meet the requirements of'Single-Failure Proof'andling Systems.The structural analytical methodology and results are presented in Section 3.0.2.3 Criticality Criteria The criticality analysis of the storage racks demonstrates that both the&esh and spent fuel assemblies remain subcritical (k s 0.95)in either the normal or accident condition.

Criticality control is maintained by geometrical spacing of the fuel assemblies, and the use of neutron absorption with fixed neutron poisons.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 52

The criticality analytical methodology and results are presented in Section 4.0.The analyses are performed using NRC-approved computer codes CASMO-3, and SCALE 4.2 (KENO-V.a).

2.4 Thermal-Hydraulic Criteria Thermal-hydraulic analyses were performed to ensure that the spent fuel pool cooling system has adequate capacity to cool and maintain water and fuel assembly temperatures within the current licensing criteria given the added heat load of the larger number of spent fuel assemblies.

The analyses were performed to the requirements in the following NRC documents:

SRP 9.1.3, uel~OT Position for Review and Acceptance of Spent Fuel Storage and Handling Applications, dated April 14, 1978 and revised January 18, 1979.The thermal-hydraulic analytical methodology and results are presented in Section 5.0.2.5 Radiological Criteria Reference oQ'site dose values for evaluating hypothetical accidents involving fission product releases are specified in 10 CFR Part 100 and are 25 rem to the whole body and 300 rem to the thyroid from iodine exposure.Both values are applicable to the exclusion area boundary (EAB)and the low population zone boundary (LPZ).Section 15.7.4.of the Standard Review Plan (SRP)specifies acceptance criteria of 25%of 10 CFR Part 100 guidelines for postulated fuel handling accidents.

However, the Ginna Station was designed and built prior to the SRP and is not required to meet the SRP limits.A previous fuel handling accident analysis showed an offsite dose of 96 rem thyroid which has been previously accepted by the NRC as being"well within" 10 CFR Part 100 limits (see Section 6.1.1).Occupational exposure dose limits are specified in 10 CFR Part 20 and are further controlled by plant procedures.

The recommended dose rate that shall not be exceeded in accessible spaces adjacent the spent fuel pool is given in ANSUANS 57.2 and is 2.5 mrem/hr to any persons occupying those spaces.The rate is specified for when the pool is at its design fuel inventory and at the minimum design water depth.The radiological analytical methodology and results are presented in Section 6.0 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 53

3.0 STRUCTURAL

EVALUATION This section presents the structural evaluation to ensure that the Rochester Gas and Electric's Ginna Unit 1 Spent Fuel Storage System meets all applicable structural criteria to maintain a subcritical array for the spent fuel and to keep radiation exposure within federal limits.The analysis of the Spent Fuel Storage System demonstrates that the structure satisfies the requirements of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 50.Results of the analysis show the design satisfies the~statutory requirements for licensing.

The results also demonstrate the ruggedness of the spent fuel rack.design.

Current state-of-the-art methods are used in the structural analyses.The storage rack structural evaluation is based on a conservative interpretation of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV)Code.The spent fuel pool evaluation is based on a conservative interpretation of the American Concrete Institute's Code Requirements for Nuclear Safety Related Concrete Structures and American Institute of Steel Construction's Building Code.It is shown that the spent fuel system structures are robust and provide safe storage of spent fuel under any of the normal, upset or hypothetical accident conditions.

Section 3.2 summarizes the structural design criteria.Section 3.3 provides the structural design features of the Spent Fuel Storage Racks.Section 3.4 summarizes the materials of construction and the corresponding material properties.

Section 3.5 summarizes the structural analysis.Specifically, section 3.5.3.3 summarizes the analytically determined minimum design factors for the major components.

3.1 SCOPE

The scope of this structural evaluation includes the RG&E's Ginna Unit 1 Spent Fuel Storage System.The structural evaluation includes the spent fuel storage racks and the floor and liner of the spent fuel pool.Structural evaluation of the storage racks include both the resident U.S.Tool and Die racks and the new ATEA racks.The U.S.Tool and Die racks hereafter are referred to as Racks 1 through 6.The new ATEA racks are referred to as Racks 7 through 13 or as 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 3E.The perimeter racks are referred to as Type 4 Racks.The design of the new high density storage racks is such that it preserves the original licensing basis (NRC SER dated November 14, 1984), hereafter referred to as the 1985 licensing basis, for Racks 1 through 6, and for the spent fuel pool liner and pool concrete.The new ATEA storage racks are free standing racks and are supported on the pool floor only.The gaps between the racks, and those between the rack and the pool wall, are designed such that the new racks do not impose any additional loadings on the resident racks or on the pool wall.These conditions are verified throughout the analysis.The new racks are high density storage racks and are capable of storing additional fuel.The number of support legs are designed such that the new racks do not impose any higher loading on the pool liner or the pool concrete.This is also verified in the analysis.The seismic analysis is performed for both the resident and new racks.The 1985 licensing basis is preserved for all hypothetical accidental drop cases on the resident U.S.Tool and Die racks.Therefore, the hypothetical accident evaluation is performed only on the new ATEA racks.51-1258768-01

The redesign only changes the floor bearing loads.Bearing Allowable (I)(0.85 fg Per ACI 349, Section 10.15~Demonstrate that there are no rack-to-wall impacts 3.3 STRUCTURAL DESIGN FEATURES The ATEA spent fuel rack design objective was to maximize the number of available fuel assembly storage cells while ensuring that all criticality, thermal-hydraulic, and structural requirements were met.Specific to these structural design features, the ATEA racks consist of three fundamental rack types, grouped as Types 2A-2B, 3A-3E, and 4.The rack modules are freestanding structures that minimize the loadings on the pool liner and floor, in that only friction loads and bearing loads are transmitted.

In addition, rack structural loads are minimized by the compliance offered by the free-standing boundary condition.

Rack modules are sized to ensure sufficient lateral gaps between modules and the pool wall such that no impacts are made during the faulted events.The rack pedestals are positioned such that they are sufficiently removed from the existing pool liner leak chases, thus minimizing the effects of additional loads in these areas.The pedestals are also 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 63 sized and numbered to ensure a stable rack structure, thus minimizing tilting, and also to equally distribute and minimize the resulting bearing loads onto the pool liner and floor.The pedestals also provide threaded connections to ensure the overall rack module levelness during installation, thus minimizing any load eccentricities and imbalances.

The pedestal and rack baseplate designs provide sufficient cutouts for fluid cooling while ensuring adequate structural strength.The ATEA baseplate thickness is greater than that of the resident racks.In addition, the entire rack foundation is designed with a gusset plate network tying the baseplate and pedestals throughout the rack module.The gusset plate network further strengthens the rack, increasing structural margins for the baseplate and pedestals.

Type 2 racks have a primary structural design whose features include cell junction weld tabs, which are used to physically connect the stainless steel structural cells axially along the cell length.These weld tabs laterally position the structural cells and provide a load path between these cells.The weld tabs are sized and numbered to ensure sufficient structural margins.The structural cells are also fabricated with welded stainless steel retainer plates located at the top and bottom of the cell.These plates ser ve to axially constrain the adjacent borated stainless steel (BSS)cells while providing a gap to accommodate any axial differential thermal expansion.

The retainer plates also serve as a bearing surface through which loads are transmitted from structural cell to structural cell through the top and bottom nozzles of the fuel assembly within the BSS cell.The retainer plate welds are sized and numbered to ensure a sufficient structural margin for all loading cases, including a stuck fuel assembly.Type 3 racks have a primary structural design whose features include a series of stainless steel"bands" located at discrete axial locations along the length of the BSS cells.These axial locations correspond to those of the fuel assembly spacer grids.The spacer grids are the primary lateral load interface for the fuel assembly in addition to the top and bottom nozzles.The band is assembled as two pieces fitting into mortice joints on the BSS plates and then welded to each other to form an integral band around the BSS cell.These bands serve as the load path through the BSS cell to the structural cells.The bands coupled with the rack-to-rack cell gaps ensure that only compressive loads and no bending loads are transmitted to the BSS plates.The type 3 racks also utilize the cell junction weld tabs, which are used to physically connect the stainless steel structural cells axially along the cell length.These weld tabs laterally position the structural cells and provide a load path between these cells, similar to type 2 racks.The weld tabs are sized and numbered to ensure sufficient structural margins.Type 4 racks are special racks located on the periphery of the resident rack modules (type 1)to further increase storage capacity.These racks consist of 10 rack cells per module which are secured by two custom mounting fixtures located in the top of the outer cells of the adjacent resident racks.Type 4 racks are also positioned on the pool floor using two pedestals, allowing it to be self-supporting and stable.For additional lateral constraint, tie bars fixtured to the bottom of two type 4 rack cells (adjacent to the pedestal cells)-interface with the diagonally adjacent type 1 rack cells.The type 4 racks and corresponding mounting fixtures are designed and positioned to minimize rack displacement and maximize structural margins while ensuring that no impacts with the pool wall occur.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 64

3.4 MATERIALS

OF CONSTRUCTION General Standards This section addresses the general'structural material'equirements of Standard Review Plan, NUREG-0800, Section 3.8.4, Appendix D in the design of the spent fuel storage racks.The internal and external environmental conditions of the storage pool were considered in the selection of the component materials.

All of the structural materials selected conform to the ASTM Specifications and meet the intent of ASME Section III, Subsection NF requirements.

Any benefits of the structural strength of Boraflex and borated stainless steel are not considered in the structural analysis.Table 3.4-1 summarizes the materials of construction for the spent fuel storage racks, spent fuel pool liner, and the spent fuel pool.3.4.1 Structural Materials Type 304L and 630 stainless steel materials were selected for the storage rack construction because of: Corrosion resistance (low carbon content which minimizes the sensitization), Strength, Fracture toughness, and ASME acceptability.

The 630 bolting material is selected for its high strength and resistance to stress corrosion cracking, even at temperature to 300', and under severe chloride and H,S environment.

Galvanic reactions are not expected between the 304L and borated stainless steel, or between 304L and 630 austenitic stainless steel.The resident U.S.Tool&Die storage racks and pool liner are fabricated from 304 stainless steel.The spent fuel pool walls and floor are constructed using 3,000 psi minimum strength concrete-28 days cured.Tables 3.4-2 through 3.4-6 report the material properties used in the structural analyses.3.4.2 Non-Structural Materials Borated stainless steel and Boraflex are used as neutron absorber materials.

They are considered non-structural materials in the structural analyses.Borated Stainless Steel The borated stainless steel (BSS)is grade 304 B6/B7, Type B in accordance with ASTM-A887-89 and A-480.Natural Boron (B10)is added to the austenitic stainless steel with a minimum content of 1.7 percent in weight and a carbon content less than or equal to 0.03%.The microstructure consists of an austenitic stainless steel matrix with fine, uniform dispersion of complex chromium borides.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 65

Borated stainless steels are used for neutron attenuation in spent fuel storage and transportation applications.

BSS has been used in spent fuel storage pools since 1978.Currently, more than 4,000 metric tons of BSS are in use in spent fuel pools.BSS has been licensed in 13 countries including the U.S.A.for use in spent fuel pools.BSS has been licensed for use in spent fuel pools at Indian Point 2, Indian Point 3 and Millstone 2 in the U.S.A.For these applications, BSS was exposed to aqueous environments including boric acid, and these applications have proven the corrosion resistance of BSS.Borated stainless steel has an exceptional resistance to corrosion by electrolytic

'ydridation, oxidation, or other chemical reactions in borated and pure water.As compared to 304 type stainless steel, borated stainless steel has a higher strength but lower ductility and lower impact resistance.

The coefficient of thermal expansion and density for borated stainless steel are very similar to 304L stainless steel (Table 3.4-7).BSS corrosion resistance is very similar to conventional austenitic stainless steel in a spent fuel pool environment.

There are no significant changes to the mechanical properties of the borated stainless steel upon exposure to the levels of irradiation, over the design life of the fuel storage rack.In the ATEA rack design, the borated stainless steel plate is a free standing member.The borated stainless steel is neither bent nor welded in the storage rack design.This will preclude any cracking or thermal alteration of the metal.The borated stainless steel is not considered as a structural member in the structural analysis, and its contribution to the strength of the racks is neglected.

In summary, the neutron absorber material selected for the rack construction provide: Homogeneous Boron in austenitic stainless steel matrix Corrosion resistance over the life of the racks High stability under irradiation (no blistering, no creep,...)No degradation, swelling or ballooning.

Boraflex Boraflex is used as a neutron absorber in the resident U.S.Tool&Die racks.The Boraflex is not considered as a structural member in the strength analysis.The analysis reflects only the weight of the Boraflex.Table 3.4-8 reports the material density used in the weight calculation.

3.5 STRUCTURAL

ANALYSIS The RG8cE Ginna Unit 1 Spent Fuel Storage System structure is analyzed to meet the codes and standards specified in Section 3.2.1.This section covers the structural analysis of the storage racks, spent fuel pool and the pool liner.The re-racking at Ginna utilizes high density, free-standing spent fuel storage racks to replace selected resident, low density racks.The racks are of four basic design variations; namely Type 1 Type 2, Type 3 and Type 4 racks.All racks are designed to store consolidated spent fuel canisters with a 2:1 consolidation ratio.The following sketch provides a general layout of the array of racks'n the pool.Rack 4D Rack 4E R ck 4F Rack 2¹2 Rack 1¹1 Rack 4¹4 Rack 3¹3 Rack 6¹6 Rack 5¹5 Rack 3A¹10 Rack 3C Rack 2B¹8 Rack 2A¹7 Rack 3B¹13 Rack 3D¹12 Rack 3E¹11 Rack 4A Rack 4B Rack 4C Storage Racks-Rack Locations And General Arrangement Section 3.5.1 presents the method used in generating the seismic input, the fuel assembly loading and various loads considered in the analysis.Section 3.5.2 presents the structural and seismic analysis methodology and assumptions.

Section 3.5.3 presents analyses and results for normal (Level A), upset (Level B), faulted (Level D)and hypothetical accident loading conditions.

Finite element methods were used extensively to analyze loads, deformations and stresses in the structural components.

Computer codes used for structural analysis are certified and benchmarked to known solutions.

Section 3.5.2.4 provides a listing of computer programs used.The computer program, ANSYS, was used for a majority of these calculations.

Several mathematical models were used with features to represent the sliding and tipping of the racks and hydrodynamic coupling which can occur between fuel assemblies and rack cells, between racks, and between racks and reinforced concrete walls.These mathematical models account for differences in rack modules in the pool.Fuel loadings analyzed included all possible combinations, 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 72 loading conditions of empty, half-loaded, unconsolidated and consolidated fuel.Due to the fact that the racks are&ee to slide and tip, a nonlinear dynamic analysis was performed to evaluate seismic loadings.The analysis was a time history analysis, which permitted both sliding and tipping.Section 3.5.2.3 provides detailed descriptions of the mathematical models.An overview of the main mathematical models is provided here.3-D Single Rack Dynamic Analysis Models These mathematical models are used for various sensitivity studies.Figure 3.5-31 provides a schematic of the 3-D single rack model.These evaluations reduce the number of discrete whole pool evaluations, thus making the analysis of the spent fuel pool racks more efficient.

Section 3.5.2.7 presents the results of the rack stiffness sensitivity study.The results presented conclude that the seismic loadings and hence stresses are not sensitive to the rack stiffness.

For this reason, it is concluded that structural testing is not required to verify stiffness calculations.

3-D Whole Pool Multi-Rack Dynamic Analysis Model A three-dimensional whole pool multi-rack (WPMR)model (Figure 3.5-32)was used for the re-racking seismic and structural analysis.The racks in the model reflect the use of six racks currently in use at Ginna and the additional seven (7)new ATEA racks for a total of thirteen (13)racks in the spent fuel pool.The use of six additional perimeter racks (Type 4), which may be installed at a future time, is also addressed in analyzing several pool configurations.

The seismic input is site-specific to the Ginna plant.Rack loads and displacements were determined from this analysis for all load cases.3-D Single Rack Plate Models These mathematical models were used for static stress, thermal, base plate and lifting analyses.Figure 3.5-33 provides an isometric view of the 3-D Single Rack Plate Model.Isolated Component Models Extensive use has been made of various isolated mathematical models for calculation of global or isolated stiffness, support tab stiffness and tab stresses, etc.Figures 3.5-34 and 3.5-35 provide an isometric view of type 2 and type 3 fuel cell finite element models with tabs respectively.

Section 3.5.3.1.1.3 describes the isolated model for fuel-to-rack interface stiffness calculation.

Section 3.5.3.1.2 describes the isolated mathematical model for the tab stresses.3.5.1 Loading Conditions 3.5.1.1 Overview FUEL ASSEMBLY LOADING The empty, half full and fully loaded racks were considered in the seismic analysis.The weight of 1450 pounds was used for a single fuel assembly.This weight envelopes all three fuel designs, namely W-standard, W-OFA, and Exxon.The 1450 pound fuel assembly weight includes the weight of control components.

Two full rack loading conditions were analyzed.The first, referred to as unconsolidated, represents a rack filled with fuel assemblies.

The second, referred to as consolidated, represents a rack filled with full consolidation canisters, each weighing 2323 pounds.The half-full condition considered is a rack which is filled with fuel assemblies in one half and 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 73 empty in the other half, so that the worst case eccentricity would exist.The empty rack condition considered is a rack with no fuel assemblies or consolidation canisters.

DEAD WEIGHT The dead weight loading includes: 1)empty storage racks, 2)racks fully loaded with fuel assemblies, 3)racks fully loaded with the consolidated canisters, and 4)racks partially loaded with a mixture of fuel assemblies and consolidated canisters.

The results presented for seismic loadings include the effect of dead weight loadings.Section 3.5.3.1.5 provides a summary of the support pad loads which includes the dead weight loads.LIVE LOADS There are no live loads on the storage racks.For this reason, all live loads are zero in the load combination considered.

SEISMIC LOAD For the RGB Ginna Unit 1, the ground seismic response is 0.08 g for OBE and 0.2 g SSE (Ginna UFSAR, Section 3.7.1.2).The spent fuel pool is built on top of hard rock.Therefore, the ground response spectra are also applicable to the pool foundation.

The shape of response spectra is per U.S.NRC Regulatory Guide 1.60.Synthetic Time History Four sets of statistically independent synthetic acceleration time histories were generated for 2%damping for OBE and 4%damping for SSE conditions with each set containing horizontal and vertical acceleration time histories.

The most current version of the computer program SIMQKE was used to generate synthetic seismic time histories.

It was demonstrated that each of the generated time histories was statistically independent from all of the others.In order to prove statistical independence, the normalized cross-correlation coefficient between any two sets is less than 0.1 (Section N-1213.1 of ASME Section III, Reference 3.19).The largest coefficient was less than 0.1.The time history was based on a time step of 0.01 seconds.The synthetic time histories used had a duration of 20 seconds, and the three orthogonal components of each set were simultaneously applied in the rack time history seismic analyses.The floor response spectra were regenerated from 1.1 times the average of all four developed time histories.

The regenerated floor response spectra are found to match very well throughout the&equency range of the Criteria Floor Response Spectra to meet the requirements specified in SRP 3.7.1 of NUREG-0800, Reference 3.2.The specified OBE and SSE response spectra are per Ginna UFSAR, Section 3.7.1.2.The comparison of the calculated and the Ginna specific SSE response spectra are shown in Figures 3.5-1 through 3.5-6.Four SSE and OBE time histories were used in an analysis of the Rack 8 (Rack 2B).The parametric study was based upon a friction coefficient of 0.8, which produced the maximum loads.For this study, several parameters were examined, such as maximum rack forces and moments, support leg loads, and fuel to rack impact loads.From the comparison, it was found that using a factor on a single time history would envelop the other three.Section 3.5.2.6 presents the determination of the 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 74 "single" OBE and"single" SSE time histories and associated factors.To simplify calculations, the remaining analyses were based on single OBE and single SSE time histories.

From the results of the four different time histories upon the single rack model, factors were applied to selected single OBE and SSE forces and moments for the stress analysis calculations in order to cover all possibilities.

The four OBE's indicated that a factor of 1.12 applied to the OBE-4 loads would completely envelop all four of the generated OBE loads.The four SSE's indicated that a factor of 1.20 applied to the SSE-1 loads would completely envelop all four of the generated SSE loads.These factors used were 1.12 and 1.20 for OBE and SSE, respectively.

THERMAL LOADS The conditions Ta and To cause local thermal stresses to be produced.Two cases of thermal effects were considered.

First, an isolated storage location containing a fuel assembly was considered, in which it was assumed that the fuel assembly is generating heat at the maximum postulated rate.The surrounding storage locations were assumed empty.The heated water was assumed to make contact with the inside of the storage walls, thereby producing the maximum possible temperature difference, To, between the adjacent cells.In the second case, it was assumed that there is a loss of cooling such that the entire rack expands, setting up shear forces in the support legs which are assumed to be held&om sliding by the horizontal friction force between the support legs bearing pad and pool floor liner, see Section 3.5.3.1.9.

Single Hot Cell (To)The worst situation was assumed to exist when an isolated storage location has a fuel assembly which is generating heat at the maximum postulated rate.The surrounding storage location is assumed to contain no fuel.The heated water makes unobstructed contact with the inside of the storage walls, thereby producing the maximum possible temperature difference between the adjacent cells.The sum of primary plus secondary stresses is limited to the lesser of two times the material yield strength, 2 Sy, and ultimate strength, Su at the design temperature.

Loss of Spent Fuel Pool Cooling (Ta)This thermal condition is produced when the pool water bulk temperature increases to 180'due to loss of artificial cooling.The pool liner temperature is kept the same as the normal operating temperature to generate conservative stresses in the rack.FATIGUE ANALYSIS The peak stress range in the rack structure and the pool liner due to the cyclic loading was evaluated against fatigue criteria.For purposes of evaluating fatigue compliance, one SSE and five OBE events were used.It was demonstrated, by analysis, that the Cumulative Usage Factor in accordance with the procedures of NB 3222.4 (Reference 3.19)did not exceed 1.0 for storage racks.The pool liner fatigue strength was evaluated per Part 5, Appendix K of the AISC Code-9th edition.The analysis is contained in Section 3.5.3.1.11.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 75 STUCK FUEL ASSEMBLY-UPLIFT FORCE The ability of the racks to withstand a vertical or inclined (at 45')force of 2000 pounds applied at any point without damaging the racks as to violate the sub-criticality criteria (K,ir less than 0.95)for the stored fuel was demonstrated by analysis.The analysis is contained in Section 3.5.3.1.18.

SLOSHING EFFECTS The effect of sloshing of the pool water during the seismic event on the rack motion is negligible, as demonstrated by classical methods in Section 3.5.3.1.13.

The hydrodynamic pressures from sloshing of the pool surface water have no effect upon the racks.The sloshing water rises and lowers't the ends of the pool by about 1 ft under OBE conditions and 3 ft under SSE.The effect of this and the resulting changes in pressure are minimal.HYPOTHETICAL ACCIDENT DROPS The major hypothetical accident conditions addressed in Section 3.5.3.2 are: a)b)c)d)e)Fuel assembly drop during fuel handling in the spent fuel pool Spent fuel pool canal gate drop Spent fuel pool storage rack drop Tornado missile impact Spent fuel cask drop.The straight deep drop cases required an exactitude, (i.e., falls through cell with no contact), which has a very low probability of occurring.

Nevertheless, the consequences of such an accident were examined.While damage to the fuel rack bottom plate or support leg could be expected, no damage would occur to the spent fuel pool floor.The shallow drop was examined and it was found that with a ductility factor less than 20 and deformation less than one inch, the distortion of the cells would be confined to the portion of cells above the borated stainless steel, and hence, would not affect the K factor used in the criticality analysis.The conservatism used in the mechanical accident analyses for various drops indicated that minor distortion of the rack is limited to the vicinity of the impact area.There is no gross deformation of the rack away from the impact area.Consolidated fuel, the pool canal gate, storage racks and spent fuel shipping casks were considered heavy loads per NUREG-0612.

There will be administrative control for movement of these hardware in the spent fuel pool area.Also they will be lifted using a single-failure proof crane and a single-failure proof lifting system.Handling of these hardware in the spent fuel pool area will be performed in accordance with the guidelines of NUREG-0612 with regard to limiting the chance of unacceptable heavy load drop.Reference 3.23, NRC Staff safety evaluation report, provides exclusion of heavy load drops meeting these criteria.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 76 3.5.1.2 Seismic Input Compliance This section demonstrates compliance of RG&E's Ginna spent fuel storage seismic analysis time histories input with: a)b)c)U.S.NRC Regulatory Guides 1.60 and 1.61.Standard Review Plan-NUREG-0800, Section 3.7.1.,"Seismic Design Parameters" requirement, and ASME Code, Appendix N, Sections N-1212.2 and N-1213.1, 1989 edition.Design Response Spectra References 3.2 and 3.10 provide criteria for design floor response spectra in the three orthogonal directions as a function of the fundamental frequency for Operational Basis Earthquake (OBE).Per reference 3.10, the Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE)ground response spectra is 0.20 G's (horizontal) and 0.133 G's (vertical), while the OBE ground spectra is 0.08 G's for horizontal and 0.053 G's for vertical motion components.

Per reference 3.3, structural damping values for welded steel structures are taken as 2%and 4%(percent of critical damping)for OBE and SSE respectively.

These spectrum curves were used for the seismic analysis of all racks in the pool.The numerical values of accelerations for the RG&E Ginna Unit 1 spent fuel pool specified ground response spectra are given in Tables 3.5-1 through 3.5-6.These acceleration values are consistent with the U.S.NRC Regulatory Guide 1.60 requirements.

Synthetic Time Histories Per Reference 3.2, Paragraph 1"Design ground Motion", Option 2"Multiple Time Histories" is chosen as an analysis basis.Per same reference, acceptance criteria for the Option 2 requires a minimum of four independently generated time histories.

Therefore, four sets of statistically independent synthetic acceleration time histories were generated assuming 2%damping for OBE and 4%damping for SSE conditions, each set containing horizontal and vertical acceleration time histories.

Averages of the calculated response spectra with an assigned factor of 1.1 envelop each design spectra ground motion component, as shown in Figures 3.5-1 through 3.5-6.Total seismic activity time duration was taken to be 20 seconds.Reference 3.19, Section N-1212.2"Duration of Time History" suggests duration time larger than 6 seconds for strong seismic motion.Reference 3.4,Section II"Acceptance Criteria", paragraph 1-b"Design Time History" requires a total time duration between 10 and 25 seconds.Thus, both requirements are met with a 20 seconds time history duration.All time histories were based on a 0.01 second time step.Plots of the developed acceleration time histories are given in Figures 3.5-7 through 3.5-30.Time Histories Independence Per Reference 3.19, Section N-1213.1"Time Phase Relationship", all artificially generated time histories met cross-correlation limit requirement (maximum correlation coefficient per time history pair of 0.16 or 16%).It was demonstrated that each of the generated time histories, was statistically independent from all of the others, since a normalized cross-correlation coefficient between any two sets was less than 0.10 (Reference 3.43).The results of this analysis for the four sets of synthetic SSE and OBE time histories are given in Tables 3.5-7 and 3.5-8, respectively.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 77 Multiple Time History Inputs Three orthogonal components of each synthetic time history set were simultaneously applied in all three directions.

Seismic runs were made for both SSE and OBE conditions, with a single time history set chosen for each condition (one out of four)for all of the 3D whole pool multi-rack analyses.The chosen time history set was used in conjunction with load factors to envelop the loads and displacements of all four time history sets.These factors are 1.20, for SSE, using time history set number 1, and 1.12 for OBE, using time history set number 4.Section 3.5.2.6.covers Time History Factor'etermination.

Synthetic Time Histories Generation The artificial time history generation program SMQKE was used to obtain all sets of acceleration time histories.

3.5.2 Structural

Analysis Methods RG8cE Ginna Nuclear Plant spent fuel storage system structure is evaluated using state-of-the-art analytical methods.To expedite Staff review, the methods used in current license applications are used here.The methods of analysis used are well documented in text books and open literature.

The method and source references are identified throughout the report.The following subsections provide more details on these methods.3.5.2.1 Assumptions

-Seismic/Structural 1.Rack stainless steel responds elastically under all loading, including seismic OBE and SSE.2.Hydrodynamic coupling terms were calculated based upon potential flow theory with consideration of horizontal flow.3.For the 3-D single rack model and the 3-D whole pool model, a number of actual support legs were modeled by four legs placed at the corners of the rack base plate.4.Seismic input consists of three statistically independent orthogonal time histories of motion, simultaneously applied at each pool point under rack legs, and at pool wall points hydrodynamically coupled to the rack beams.Four sets of earthquake inputs were generated.

All effects of the earthquake were examined;i.e., leg and pool wall reaction forces, displacements, tipping, etc.A single earthquake time history was selected for OBE and SSE conditions.

In each case, a seismic response spectra enveloping factor was determined, such that the average of four developed time histories would envelop the specified floor response spectra throughout the frequency range, to meet the requirements specified in SRP 3.7.1 of NUREG 0800.A time history factor was then applied to the final results to ensure that the results would remain the most conservative and envelope all time history cases.6.It was assumed that the hydrodynamic coupling forces were dependent upon the initial gap.The results of the 3-D whole pool analysis showed the suitability of this assumption.

This was due to the fact that increases in gaps on one side of the rack tended to be offset by decreases in gaps on the other side.Further gap closures would produce higher hydrodynamic coupling forces, which would decrease further closure.7.Coefficients of friction between 0.2 and 0.8 are adequate to cover the range between the lower and the upper&iction values between the rack legs and the pool floor.A selective run was made with the coefficient of friction of 0.5 to show that loads were bounded for the coefficient of friction of 0.8, and the displacements were bounded for the coefficient of friction of 0.2.8.Buoyancy was considered for the calculations of rack and fuel weights.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 100 9.The use of 20.0 seconds for the duration of the seismic time histories is sufficient.

It was shown that the developed time histories match the requirements specified in SRP 3.7.1 of NUREG-0800, Reference 3.2.10.Nominal dimensions were used in the analysis.11.Allowable material properties as specified in the ASME Code,Section III were used.12.Hydrodynamic coupling between fuel and rack cells, between racks and between racks and pool wall was taken into account.13.All the fuel assemblies act simultaneously to produce the maximum loading effect.14.All rack stresses, excluding the legs and the leg weld attachments, are evaluated based upon maximum forces rather than upon time dependent forces.15.The pool was considered as a rigid structure with regard to the seismic excitation.

16.A damping coefficient of 2%was used for OBE and 4%for SSE.17.Borated stainless steel density and coefficient of thermal expansion were taken as the same as 304L stainless steel.3.5.2.2 Analytical Procedure 3.5.2.2.1 Seismic Analysis The methodology used to perform the seismic analysis of the racks is described in this section.The racks are&ee standing modules which are independent of each other as well as the walls.The racks are simply supported by the pool floor with no structural connection.

Therefore, the racks may slide and tip.A wide range of seismic analyses were performed accounting for: A.B.C.D.E.F.variation in coefficient of friction, variation in fuel loading, various levels of seismic activity, hydrodynamic coupling, sliding and tipping of racks, and impact of fuel assemblies within the racks.The new racks (racks 7 through 13)to be added at the Ginna Station utilize high density, free standing spent fuel storage racks.Due to the fact that the new high density spent fuel racks are&ee-standing structures which are free to slide and tip, a nonlinear dynamic analysis is required to evaluate the cases of Operational Basis Earthquake (OBE)and Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE).The racks are of two basic design variations:

namely those in Region 1 and Region 2.Region 1 is designed to accommodate

&esh fuel assemblies, while Region 2 is designed to accommodate spent 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 101 fuel assemblies.

In addition, Region 1 and 2 are designed to store consolidated spent fuel canisters with a 2:1 consolidation ratio.A general layout of the array of racks, Region 1 and 2, are shown in Figure 3.5-36.The analyses were performed using several mathematical models.The models included features to allow sliding and tipping of the racks and to represent the hydrodynamic coupling which occurs between fuel assemblies and rack cells, between racks, and between racks and reinforced concrete pool walls.A 3-D single rack beam model was used to select the appropriate parameters for the multi-rack whole pool nonlinear analysis.The 3-D single rack model simulated the three-dimensional characteristics of the rack modules in a comprehensive manner.The physical degrees of freedom such as lifting, twisting, bending, sliding, overturning, etc., were incorporated into the dynamic model as required.The 3-D single rack model could not evaluate multi-rack effects, such as relative rack-to-rack displacements, so a 3-D whole pool model was used.The 3-D single rack model was used to determine the sensitivity of various parameters on the structural response and to simplify the input for the 3-D whole pool analysis.To detect any impact between racks and/or any impact between the racks and the pool wall, additional gap elements were introduced into the 3D whole pool model.The 3-D whole pool model was used to determine all forces and moments for each rack module, and then used for the stress analysis of the racks.This model was also used to determine the relative rack-to-rack and the rack-to-wall motions.The 3-D single rack model determined the following:

1)A single enveloping seismic time history factor (see Section 3.5.2.6).2)Effects of rack stiffness on forces, moments and displacements (see Section 3.5.2.7).3)Forces transmitted to the inter-rack connections from the peripheral racks to the existing Region 2 racks.Including parameters for these connections in the 3-D whole pool model would have made the model too complex to run for the nonlinear analysis.The 3-D single rack model was run for the rack that produced the highest load for the peripheral rack (see Section 3.5.3.1.7.3).

4)Effects of off-centered fuel loadings (see Section 3.5.3.1.7.4).

5)Comparison of single 3-D rack models with connected and disconnected fuel beams (see Section 3.5.3.1.7.5).

6)Effect of rack height increase (see Section 3.5.3.1.7.2).

In both the 3-D single rack model and the 3-D whole pool multi-rack model, the racks and the fuel assemblies in each rack were represented as a single member.Hydrodynamic coupling and impact forces were obtained for fuel to rack impact.Impact forces from rack support legs to pool floors were also obtained, as well as maximum loadings (both vertical and lateral)on the support legs.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 102 Detailed descriptions of the 3-D single rack model and the 3-D whole pool model used in the analysis are given in Section 3.5.2.3.The other models used in the stress analysis included (1)a 3-D single rack plate model and (2)single cell models with tabs.The 3-D single rack plate model was used for the static stress, thermal, and the base plate stress analysis.The single cell models with tabs were used to determine the distribution of the local fuel to rack impact loadings.The 3-D whole pool model was run for twelve (12)different pool loading configurations as described in Section 3.5.2.3 and provided in Table 3.5-64.To account for all possible combinations, fuel loading conditions of empty, half-loaded, and fully-loaded racks were analyzed.Both normal fuel assemblies and consolidated fuel canisters were considered.

Interface coefficients of friction considered for the racks were as follows: a)b)c)d)all at 0.2, one run of all at 0.5 all at 0.8, and mixed, which were statistically determined as provided in Tables 3.5-65 and 3.5-66.Maximum sliding occurs when the interface coefficient of&iction is 0.2 and maximum tipping and stress occurs when the interface coefficient of friction is 0.8.Therefore, only selective runs were made with the mixed coefficients of friction.The maximum loads for each rack and relative gap closures between racks were determined.

The maximum loads generated onto the resident racks were then compared with the loads used for the original licensing of the racks (racks 1 through 6).3.5.2.2.2 Structural Analysis 3.5.2.2.2.1 Rack Stresses The results of all the dynamic analysis runs included both seismic and dead loads.For both OBE and SSE conditions, all acceleration time histories were amplified by a seismic response spectra enveloping factor of 1.1.As described in Section 3.5.2.6, a time history factor of 1.2 applied to the SSE loads would completely envelop loads generated from all four of the SSE time histories.

Similarly, a factor of 1.12 was developed for the OBE loads.The accompanying Tables 3.5-141 through 3.5-146 list the stress allowable and the results of the analyses.Stresses in the tubes were calculated from the 3-D whole pool model based upon the overall moments and shears applied to the rack.In addition, the fuel to rack impacts causes bending stresses in the walls of the structural tubes.Since the tubes act together in resisting seismic loads, shear forces must be transferred through the connecting tabs.Due to these shear forces, the tab plates are subjected to shear and bending moments.The welds are, therefore, subject to stresses due to tab plate bending and shear.The connecting tabs are used to connect structural tubes together so that the rack acts as a structural element.The tab and weld arrangements and results are described in Section 3.5.3.1.2.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 103

The tabs are designed to be capable of canying the shear flow&om one tube to the next.Due to the grid arrangement, the shear stress in each direction will tend to be uniform in plan.Maximum base shear force, calculated from the 3-D whole pool analysis, was found in two orthogonal directions; i.e., N-S, E-W.All tabs and welds for ATEA racks are designed for the worst load cases.Results&om the 3-D whole pool model analysis provide information on overall maximum stresses in cells.The output forces and stresses of all bounding runs using the 3-D whole pool model are provided in Section 3.5.3.1.8.

3.5.2.2.2.2 Support Legs and Concrete Bearing Stresses The bearing stresses in the concrete slab and the stresses in the'upport legs were determined for deadweight, thermal and seismic (OBE&SSE)loadings.Boussinesq's solution (Reference 3.35)for half-space was also used to estimate bearing stresses in the concrete (see Section 3.5.3.1.5 for loads).The maximum horizontal and vertical load inputs to the model were taken from the results from the 3-D whole pool analyses (see Section 3.5.3.1.5 for loads).The maximum support reactions, overall bending moments and forces calculated from the time history analyses were used to determine stresses in the support legs and reinforced concrete.According to Reference 3.22, the average concrete strength of the spent fuel pool concrete is 3,000 psi.The average pressure (bearing)under the bearing pad shall not exceed the design basis pressure for a dead load or seismic load.The maximum bearing stress in the concrete was calculated by taking the maximum vertical support leg loads determined from the 3-D whole pool analyses and dividing by the area of the bearing pad.As another check for bearing stresses, Boussinesq's solution for half-space was used.In this method, it was assumed that a normal force is acting on the plane boundary of a semi-infinite solid.All results are summarized in Section 3.5.3.1.9.

The stress allowable pertaining to the support leg, analysis details and tabulated results are given in Section 3.5.3.1.9.

3.5.2.2.2.3 Weld Stresses The weld patterns of connecting tabs were calculated for each rack in Region 1 and Region 2.The controlling load combinations were the consolidated fuel case for both OBE and SSE conditions with the coefficient of friction of 0.8.The structural tubes are welded to the base plate by means of fillet welds.The welds transfer the base shear forces and the base bending moments from the tubes to the base plate.The base shear in either the E-W or N-S direction is assumed to cause longitudinal shear stresses in the welds oriented in the E-W and N-S directions, respectively.

The bending moments cause vertical shear stresses in the welds.The weld material is 308L, for which the minimum tensile strength is S=70,000 psi 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 104 Weld stress limit to 0.3Sfor Service Level A=21,000 psi.Weld stress limit to 0.42Sfor Service Level D=29,400 psiTo=180 F The results of the maximum tab and tube weld stresses are listed in Tables 3.5-144 and 3.5-145.3.5.2.2.2.4 Fuel-to-Rack Impact Loads Evaluation The loading due to fuel assemblies was considered for unconsolidated, consolidated, half-full and empty conditions.

The impact forces between the fuel assemblies and rack cell are presented in Section 3.5.3.1.6.

In all cases for the OBE and SSE, the case of unconsolidated fuel caused the greatest seismic fuel-to-rack impact loading to occur.The hydrodynamic coupling between the unconsolidated fuel and the rack cells was much lower than the hydrodynamic coupling between the consolidated fuel canisters and the rack cells, thus permitting greater impact to occur.The analysis was performed to demonstrate the fuel rack-cell wall structural integrity due to impact loading of fuel assemblies.

The local stress in the rack cell was calculated

&om the peak impact load obtained from all the dynamic analysis runs that included both seismic and dead loads.The stress limits specified for Level B loadings (OBE)and Level D loadings (SSE)given in the ASME Section III Code (Reference 3.19)were used to obtain the limiting impact load.The stresses in the rack cell were determined using a finite element model of a single cell.For this analysis, the base of the plate was assumed fixed, the other edges along the height of the cell were assumed simply-supported, and the top edge of the cell was assumed free.The model was constructed of shell elements with ANSYS 5.2 (Reference 3.40)Table 3.5-58 provides the allowable load and the maximum load obtained for all of the load cases analyzed.As described in Section 3.5.2.6, a time history factor, of 1.2 and 1.12 was applied to the maximum SSE and OBE loads respectively.

The calculated maximum fuel assembly-rack cell wall impact loads for the SSE and OBE cases, accounting for the time history factor, are well below the allowable load limit.This confirms the local cell wall integrity for the maximum fuel to rack cell wall impact loads.3.5.2.2.2.5 Sliding and Tipping In addition to the results of the 3-D whole pool analysis used to determine stresses, data is also provided on the maximum relative sliding and tipping.The results indicate that the vibratory nature of the seismic effects precludes a significant degree of sliding and tipping.The sliding and tipping have three major effects: 1)the sliding is an energy dissipator, 2)the sliding precludes the effect of resonance since energy is not stored, and 3)both tipping and sliding limit the forces that can be introduced into the rack.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 105 f

The horizontal seismic displacements of the pool floor are transferred to the racks through the support legs.The base shear force is limited by the coefficient of friction in sliding.The effective bending moment at the base of the r'ack is limited to that bending moment which causes some support legs to lift off.However, even after tipping has occurred, resistance to tipping is provided by the moments attributed to the extreme support legs still bearing upon the floor.Supporting calculations for the 3-D single rack model and the 3-D whole pool model are provided in Section 3.5.3.1.1.

3.5.2.2.2.6 Expected Loads on Floor From Racks Each rack responds to the seismic input causing peak maximum support pad loads in addition to maximum average support pad loads.The concrete bearing stresses were checked for maximum peak and average support pad loads and found to be within the allowables, as presented in Table 3.5-142.Due to the supporting surface (concrete) being wider on all sides than the loaded area (support pads), the design bearing strength was increased by a factor of two per ACI 349-85, Section 10.15, Reference 3.20.Information on the floor loads is provided in Section 3.5.3.1.5.

3.5.2.2.2.7 Pool Liner Plate Integrity Evaluation The pool liner is subject to a top surface shearing load due to the frictional reaction load.By definition, the maximum shear force imposed by the support leg is 0.8 times the vertical force.The vertical reaction is transferred directly downward to the concrete through the liner plate.The maximum bearing stresses and tensile stresses induced on the liner are provided in Section 3.5.3.1.17.

3.5.2.3 Detailed Descriptions of Mathematical Models The ANSYS (Reference 3.40)Finite-Element Analysis Code was used for the structuraVseismic analysis of the racks.Both elastic shell element and beam element models were created.These models included features to allow for sliding and tipping of the racks and to represent the hydrodynamic coupling which can occur between fuel assemblies and rack cells, between racks, and between the racks and the reinforced concrete walls.The models used in the analysis are described in the following paragraphs.

Model 1-3-D Single Rack Plate Model A 3-D Single Rack Plate Model (See Figure 3.5-33)was prepared for use in the static stress, thermal, and the base plate stress analysis.This model consisted of shell elements representing the cells of the rack.A 9x11 rack module was chosen since it holds the largest number of consolidated fuel assemblies, which will result in the greatest support pad loadings.In the static analysis, all support pads are restrained against sliding and tipping.The maximum horizontal and vertical loads and bending moments input to the model were taken from the results of the 3-D whole'pool model seismic analyses.Upper bound values are used in the selection of the seismic g loads.Therefore, though results of this analysis are considered conservative, they provide important information on pad bearing forces and stresses in the rack.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 106 Model 2-3-D Single Rack Beam Model A 3-D Single Rack Beam Model (see Figure 3.5-31)was used for parametric studies relating to the seismic dynamic analyses of the racks.The rack modules in the pool were modeled as non-linear dynamic structures taking the geometric and physical nonlinearities into consideration, and analyzed by the nonlinear time history analysis method.The nonlinearities arise primarily from the following:

1.The support legs are free to slide in any horizontal direction and can lift off, vertically upward.2.The fuel assembly, whether consolidated in a canister or not, is not structurally tied to the fuel rack cell.This results in either a fluid gap or an impact at any time during the seismic ,event.All structural members are modeled by the ANSYS BEAM4 element.The BEAM4 element is a 3-D elastic beam with six degrees of freedom at each node.Beam elements are used to model the rack legs, the base plate, the rack tubes, and the fuel.The fuel beam and the rack beam are vertical beams located at the centroid of the rack in the horizontal plane.The fuel beam and the rack beam are connected at the bottom end.The baseplate beams extend horizontally Rom the bottom of the rack beam to the centers of the corner rack cells.At the corner rack cells, rack leg beams extend vertically downward from the ends of the baseplate beams.Each leg beam represents one fourth of the total number of rack legs.All mass is represented by MASS21 elements.The MASS21 element is a lumped mass element which can be applied in all three directions.

The MASS21 element can also apply rotary inertia to represent the lumped mass more as a distributed mass.All contact elements between the rack legs and pool liner and between and the rack tubes and fuel are modeled with CONTACT52 elements.The CONTACT52 element is a 3-D point to point contact element which allows for gaps, interface stiffness, and sliding friction.All hydrodynamic coupling between the fuel and rack, and between the rack and adjacent racks are modeled with the FLUID38 elements.The FLUID38 element is a hydrodynamic coupling element with two degrees of freedom at each node, i.e.horizontal translation in two orthogonal axes perpendicular to the vertical axes of the coupled cylinders.

The rack analysis incorporates inertial fluid coupling terms which model the effects of fluid in the gaps between the fuel assemblies and racks, between adjacent racks, and between the racks and the pool walls.The corresponding hydrodynamic masses were calculated using established methods, based on potential theory described in References 3.38.The inter-rack hydrodynamic masses were calculated using formulations developed for rectangular shapes (Reference 3.38)assuming nominal gaps between racks.The hydrodynamic mass for concentric long cylinders given in Reference 3.38 was used for fuel-to-rack coupling terms.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 107

Gap elements were provided in the mathematical model as follows: a1 The fuel assembly to cell gap included an elastic spring which became effective when the gap is closed.This spring stiffness was based upon the bending stiffness of the cell walls restrained at corners.b.The support leg to pool floor gap was represented separately in the vertical and horizontal directions.

The horizontal reaction was based upon the coefficient of friction times the vertical reaction up until the summation of horizontal reaction exceeded the horizontal inertial force, at which time the rack is assumed to slide.As a conservatism, the Rayleigh damping effect in the reinforced concrete slab was not considered, for the vertical impact support leg load.There are two basic single rack models.The first is a representation of rack 8(2B), a 9x11 Region 2 rack designed by ATEA.The second is a representation of rack 1, an existing Region 2 rack in the R.E.Ginna spent fuel pool, with a peripheral rack, rack 4A, attached.Model 3-3-D Whole Pool Model A 3-D Whole Pool Model was used to determine the relative rack-to-rack and the rack-to-wall motions.This model was also used to determine all maximum forces and moments for each rack module.The arrangements of the Ginna spent fuel pool with seven new ATEA spent fuel racks and six resident racks are shown in Figure 3.5-36.Note in this figure that racks 1, through 6 are the resident racks and 7 through 13 are the new racks.The individual rack models were combined as shown in Figure 3.5-32.The rack properties were taken&om the rack properties for each rack.The major difference between this rack model and the 3-D single rack model was in the representation of the fuel.The individual rack model used in the 3-D whole pool model used a common node between the rack beam and the fuel beam at the base plate of the rack as shown in Figure 3.5-40.It was shown that this common node does not affect the rack forces and moments obtained from the analysis (see Table 3.5-63).The base location nodes of the rack beam and the fuel beam are connected by a spring element in the 3-D single rack model.The fuel mass in the 3-D whole pool model is distributed with 1/4 of the total fuel mass located at the top node of the fuel beam element.One half of the total fuel mass and one half of the rack mass are located at the middle nodes of the fuel and rack beams.The remaining 1/4 of the fuel mass, 1/4 of the rack mass and the bottom rack plate mass, as well as the leg masses are combined at the bottom node.Hydrodynamic coupling terms were calculated for each rack and then averaged for the connection between any two racks.The coupling for any perimeter rack to the pool wall was taken simply as the hydrodynamic coupling for that specific rack.The fuel to rack hydrodynamic coupling was accounted for with one half of the coupling placed between the top nodes of the rack and fuel beams.The other half of the fuel to rack coupling was placed between the middle two nodes of the rack and fuel beams.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 108 The other parameters used in the 3-D whole pool model are similar to the 3-D single rack analysis.Buoyancy was considered for the calculations of rack and fuel weights.The coefficient of&iction between the rack support legs and pool liner used in the 3-D whole pool analysis corresponded to the following cases: i)All coefficient of friction=0.2 ii)All coefficient of friction=0.8 iii)All coefficient of friction=0.5 iv)Combination of friction coefficients between 0.2 and 0.8.The coefficients of friction between the rack support legs and pool liner were generated using a Gaussian distribution random number generator with 0.52 as the mean and 0.148 standard deviations.

Separate calculations were carried out for both OBE and SSE conditions.

Conditions of full, empty and half-loaded with fuel assemblies were analyzed.The storage locations occupied by fuel in the half-loaded conditions were selected in such a manner that the center of gravity of the loaded racks is farthest&om its geometric plane of symmetry (i.e., torsional response of rack was considered).

A total of twelve separate cases were analyzed with the 3-D whole pool model.There is a total of thirteen (13)racks in the 3-D whole pool model.The load cases analyzed are summarized in Table 3.5-64.The first ten cases assumed each rack filled with unconsolidated fuel or consolidated fuel with the coefficient of&iction being varied with values of 0.8, 0.5 and 0.2.The seismic loads consist of both the SSE and OBE conditions.

The last two cases (11 and 12)were run with the racks assigned various fuel loadings as given in Tables 3.5-65 and 3.5-66.Also, the racks were assigned random coefficients of&iction with values of 0.8, 0.5 and 0.2 as given in Tables 3.5-65 and 3.5-66.The kinematic criterion seeks to ensure that the rack is a physically stable structure.

The physical stability of the rack must be considered with the criterion that inter-rack impact or rack-to-wall impacts do not occur.However, the impact of the fuel assembly on the cell does occur and was evaluated and accounted for.Forces generated from the impact events between the fuel assemblies and the rack cells were considered for local as well as overall effects on the cell walls and rack module.It was demonstrated that such an impact does not lead to damage of the rack modules.Single Cell Models with Tabs Two 3-D finite element models of type 2 and type 3 individual spent fuel storage rack cells were made with ANSYS 5.2 using a SHELL63 element.The models were used to determine the distribution of connecting tab translational reaction loads.The finite element models for the type 2 rack cell and the type 3 rack cell are shown in Figures 3.5-34 and 3.5-35 respectively.

The type 2 cell is subjected to a pressure load on the inside surface of one cell face, and a pressure load on the 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 109

outside surface of an opposite cell face.The type 3 cell is subjected to a pressure load on the inside surface of one cell face, and concentrated loads at eight belt elevations on the outside surface of an opposite cell face.The entire length of the connecting tabs is modeled such that the stiffness of the tab is represented properly.The type 2 and type 3 cell models were loaded as described above with an arbitrary load to represent a fuel assembly loading inside and outside of a cell.The connecting tab reaction loads were then ratioed up or down based on the actual loading.These reaction loads were used to determine the stresses in the tab, and in the tab weld at each tab location.The maximum stress intensity of the cell.was also obtained for the type 2 and type 3 cells from these finite element models.Stress analysis details on the connection tabs, welds, and tube (rack cell)are given in Section 3.5.3.1.2.

3.5.2.4 Detailed Documentation of Computer Codes 3.5.2.4.1 General The following is a description of the computer codes and verification/validation methods (as applicable) used in the structuraVseismic analyses performed by FCF for the Ginna Station Spent Fuel Storage Racks.A copy of the user's manual and documentation for SIMQKE is available in the Public Domain.3.5.2.4.2 StructuraVSeismic Computer Codes Two computer codes were utilized for the structural/seismic calculations, ANSYS (Reference 3.40)and SIMQKE (Reference 3.41).3.5.2.4.2.1 ANSYS The primary code which was used for the structural analyses is ANSYS Version 5.2.ANSYS is a general purpose, finite element program for solving a wide variety of engineering analysis problems.ANSYS employs the latest finite element technology for the solution of several classes of engineering problems.ANSYS has a large library of elements and an extensive selection of material properties, both linear and nonlinear.

The sofbvare services a wide spectrum of uses,&om the linear elastic analysis of two dimensional and three-dimensional solids to applications in which nonlinear material and geometric eQects dominate.These applications must be included in conjunction with sophisticated geometric modeling.The regime of applications varies from static to dynamic structural problems.Mesh generators and extensive pre-processing and post-processing graphics help in establishing the correct analysis.Since 1970, this program has been used extensively by analysts in the nuclear, chemical, construction, and electronic industries.

Extensive use has led to a high degree of reliability in obtained computer results.The ANSYS analysis types include the following:

Static analysis~Dynamic analysis Nonlinear transient, linear transient, harmonic response, mode-frequency, modal seismic, random vibration.

~Buckling and stability analysis~Linear buckling, nonlinear buckling~Heat transfer analysis Nonlinearities Material, geometric, element Substructures 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 117 All ANSYS analysis types are based on classical engineering concepts.Through proven numerical techniques, these concepts can be formulated into matrix equations that are suitable for analysis using the finite element method.The system to be analyzed is represented by a mathematical model consisting of elements and nodes.Structural element types include spars, pipes and elbows, beams, plates, shells, solids, masses, springs, dampers, sliding interfaces, and gap interfaces.

Also, arbitrary stiffness, mass and damping matrix elements are available.

Loading input for structural analyses may be nodal forces, body forces, displacements, velocities, accelerations, pressures, or temperatures.

These inputs may be sinusoidal, random or an arbitrary function of time for the linear and nonlinear dynamic analyses.Mode frequency analyses may include force spectrum or response spectrum loadings.Structural analysis outputs are usually forces, displacements, stresses, and strains.ANSYS has been used at FCF for the last 21 years, and analyses are performed per procedures that include the guidelines for the certification of computer codes.FCF has verified that ANSYS 5.2 is acceptable for this analysis and that all applicable error reports have been reviewed and have been shown to have no effect on these analyses.3.5.2.4.2.1.1 Summary of Element Types Used in the ANSYS Models The following is a list of the element types which were used in the ANSYS models: BEAM4 The BEAM4 element is a 3-D elastic beam with six degrees of freedom at each node.Beam elements were used to model the rack legs, the baseplate, the rack tubes, and the fuel.MASS21 The MASS21 element is a lumped mass element which can be applied in all three orthogonal directions.

The MASS21 element can also apply rotary inertia to represent the lumped mass more as a distributed mass.CONTACT52 The CONTACT52 element is a 3-D point-to-point contact element which allows for gaps, interface stifRess, and sliding friction.FLUID38 The FLUID38 element is a hydrodynamic coupling element with two degrees of&eedom at each node, translation perpendicular to the axes of the coupled cylinders.

SHELL63 The SHELL63 element is an elastic shell element that has both bending and membrane capabilities.

Both in-plane and normal loads are permitted.

The element has six degrees of freedom at each node.The SHELL63 element was used in the single 3D plate models of the racks, and in the local rack cell models with connecting tabs.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 118 3.5.2.4.2.1.2 Summary of ANSYS Error Reports for Element Types Used Error No: 96-14 Use of SHELL63 elements with: (1)NON-UNIFORM thermal loads, and (2)any nonlinearity in the model, and (3)extra displacement shapes.This error is not applicable for our analyses since we didn't use any non-uniform thermal loads.Error No: 96-26 Use of SHELL63 elements with the Allman in-plane rotational stiffness (KEYOPT(3)=2) in any one of the following:

(1)a buckling analysis, or (2)a prestressed analysis, or (3)in a nonlinear analysis with stress stiffening.

This error is not applicable for our analysis since we didn't use the Allman in-plane rotational stiffness (KEYOPT(3)=2).

Conclusion:==

None of the ANSYS Error Reports had any effect on the results of the analyses.3.5.2.4.2.2 SIMQKE The program SIMQKE has these capabilities:

it computes a power spectral density function from a specified smooth response spectrum;it generates statistically independent artificial acceleration times histories and tries, by iteration, to match the specified response spectrum;it performs a baseline correction on the generated motion to ensure zero final ground velocity;and it calculates response spectra with the time histories as input.The artificial motion generated by the program is a series of sinusoidal waves multiplied by an intensity envelope function: Z(t)=I(t)L Asin(w,t+

$g Ais the amplitude and$, is the phase angle of the n~contributing sinusoid.By fixing an array of amplitudes and generating different arrays of phase angles, one obtains different motions with the same general appearance but different details.The computer uses a random number generator to produce strings of phase angles with uniform likelihood in the range between 0 and 2z.The amplitudes Aare related to the (one-sided) spectral density function G(w)in the following way: G(wg6w=A~/2 The total power may be expressed as: ZA'/2=Z G(wg5w Three different intensity envelope functions I(t)are available"Trapezoidal,""Exponential" and"Compound." The program artificially raises or lowers the generated peak acceleration to match the target peak acceleration exactly.The response spectra corresponding to the motion are then 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 119 computed.The response spectrum for one chosen damping value is called the"target" response spectrum which the program will attempt to"match." To smooth the calculated spectrum and to improve the matching, an iterative procedure is implemented.

In each cycle of the iteration, the calculated response is compared with the target at a set of control frequencies specified by the user.3.5.2.5 Hydrodynamic Fluid Coupling The present rack analysis incorporates inertial fluid coupling terms which model the effects of fluid in the gaps between fuel assemblies and racks, between adjacent racks, and between the racks and the pool wall.The corresponding hydrodynamic masses are calculated using established methods, based on potential theory, and documented in References 3.38.The following sections describe hydrodynamic masses and their methods of application.

The relative contribution of fluid coupling is dependent upon fluid gaps and the relative motion between the bodies considered.

The values calculated for the present analysis are based on nominal gaps.The coupling terms for"in-phase" rack motion are determined for gaps equivalent to nominal, and for"out-of-phase" rack motion are determined for gaps equal to I/2 nominal.A general description of the methods used is given herein.The equations indicate that the hydrodynamic coupling forces would become infinite as the gaps approach zero, so to be conservative, the calculation of the hydrodynamic mass is based on the original gaps.Impact forces would be calculated if gaps are to close to zero.ANSYS Element STIF38 is used.The option of calculating hydrodynamic masses both on diagonal and off diagonal terms of the mass matrix is selected.The hydrodynamic element masses inserted in the mass matrix are: m>>0 mI3 0 0 m>>0 m,4 m>>0 m>>0 0 m4, 0 m44 where: m>>=M,m~~=M m>>=m,I=(M,+M)m~~=M,+M~+M m,4=m4,=-(M,+M

)m44=M,+M,+M The general equation for fluid kinetic energy is used to estimate the hydrodynamic mass.The values of these masses is based upon the equations developed by Singh-90 (Reference 3.38).3.5.2.5.1 Fuel-to-Rack Hydrodynamic Coupling Fuel Assemblies The fuel assembly contains 179 individual fuel rods, 16 guide tubes and one instrument tube.These rods and tubes are held in position by spacer grids.There is no outside sheathing, so the hydrodynamic coupling is based upon each fuel rod, assumed to be at the center of the cell.For concentric long cylinders, the hydrodynamic mass is given by Singh-90 (Reference 3.38): 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 120 R+R 2 1 R-R 2 1 nnPR1 h where R,=fuel rod radius R,=rack cell"equivalent" radius h=height of fuel within rack p=density of fluid n=number of fuel rods and tubes Therefore:

For cases when there is overlap of two or more racks on the side of a rack, the weighted average gaps are used in the calculations.

Weighted Gaps For the idealization of gaps, if more than one rack with different gaps is in the vicinity of the rack under consideration, a weighted gap is used.The weighted gap is based on length of overlap between the racks.L1 L2 G2 L3 G3 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 124 Weighted average gap Z LzGz Z Li Table 3.5-9 summarizes geometric parameters and also the weighted gaps.Weighted Average Rack Coupling The hydrodynamic mass coupling between rack to rack motion under seismic events is based on weighted mass coupling.The weighted mass is based on length of overlap between the racks.Case 1 Case 2 LI L4 LS L2 L3 L7 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 125 Using Effective Coupled Lengths for Hydrodynamic Mass: L~L~H-+H Hs L Hz L 5 I~M-+H Hg g Hp H H)~2 M 1,4 M-+M L~L~Hg g H4 7 Tables 3.5-10 and-11 summarize hydrodynamic masses.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 126

3.5.2.6 Seismic Time History Factor Determinations Approach Four Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE)and four Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE)time histories are developed to evaluate the racks for the RG&E Ginna Spent Fuel Pool.The development of the time histories is documented in Section 3.5.1.Each time history is applied to a 3-D single rack model for Rack 8(2B), a 9x11 rack manufactured by ATEA.After applying each time history to the model, a multiplication factor is found that, when applied to the critical results of one of the time histories, would envelope the results produced when running the other three time histories.

After the time history factors are determined for the SSE and OBE time histories, only the time histories for which factors have been calculated are used on the whole pool model.The calculated factors for SSE and OBE are then applied to the results of the evaluations.

SSE Time History Factor Table 3.5-12 lists key results of the single rack model evaluations for the four SSE time histories.

The last column of the table gives the results of multiplying the results of SSE1 by the calculated factor.These results provide verification that the results from all of the other SSE time histories are enveloped.

The result from SSE1 which requires the highest enveloping factor is the horizontal rack load.The factor required to envelope the horizontal rack load&om SSE2 is: Factor=73,320/62,980

=1.164 Thus, the enveloping factor determined for the SSE time histories is 1.20 x SSE1.Therefore, all SSE evaluations will be performed using SSE1.The factor of 1.20 is applied to all results taken from the evaluation.

The factor of 1.20 also envelopes a factor from the effects of an increase in rack height, see Section 3.5.3.1.7.

OBE Time History Factor Table 3.5-13 lists key results of the single rack model evaluations for the four OBE time histories.

The last column of the table gives the results of multiplying the results of OBE4 by the calculated factor.These results provide verification that the results from all of the other OBE time histories are enveloped.

The result from OBE4 which requires the highest enveloping factor is the horizontal rack load.The factor required to envelope the horizontal rack load from OBE1 is: Factor=32,420/29,810

=1.088 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 130

Thus, the enveloping factor determined for the OBE time histories is 1.12 x OBE4.Therefore; all OBE evaluations will be performed using OBFA.The factor of 1.12 is applied to all results taken from the evaluation.

The factor of 1.12 also envelopes a factor from the effects of an increase in rack height, see Section 3.5.3.1.7.

The issue raised was that the rack stiffness used in the analytical models may not necessarily represent the actual stiffness of the rack.The difference in stiffness may exist because the rack stiffness in the model is based on a continuous structure, while the rack is made up of tubes connected by welded tabs.The NRC expected this method of fabrication to result in a structure with a potentially lower stiffness than that used in the structural analysis of the rack.The NRC recommended testing to verify that the rack stiffness is close to the stiffness used in the analyses.The objectives of this study are to determine the difference in stiffness between a continuous structure and a segmented structure, if any, and to show that the rack seismic loads and hence stresses are not sensitive to the rack stiffness.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 132 Resolution of Concern The approach taken to resolve this concern is to approximate the difference in stiffness between a continuous structure and a structure connected by tabs and then to determine the impact that the difference in stiffness would have on critical results of the rack analysis, such as the reaction forces on the pool floor, the moments generated in the rack, and the movement of the rack.To determine the difference in stiffness, a continuous structure was modeled using ANSYS and loaded to calculate its stiffness.

The finite element computer program ANSYS was verified against experimental test data.The model was then modified to separate the structure into segments which were then connected with tabs.The stiffness of the segmented structure connected by four tabs as in the actual rack design was found to be about 13.5%lower than the stiffness of the continuous structure.

Because the stiffness of the structure was lower for the segmented structure connected by tabs, the impact of this stiffness was examined.A model for dynamic analysis of a single rack was-modified to have rack stiffnesses ranging&om 50%to 200%of the stiffness of the continuous structure.

The model was of a free standing spent fuel rack which included rack to rack hydrodynamic coupling, rack to fuel gaps, and rack to fuel hydrodynamic coupling.Because the racks were free standing, the gaps and hydrodynamic coupling had a larger effect than rack stiffness on the loads, moments, and rack movements since there was rigid body motion.These models were evaluated using a single specified safe shutdown earthquake (SSE)time history.The results of these analyses were then plotted as percentages of the values calculated using the stiffness of the continuous structure vs.the factor applied to the stiffness.

The results plotted were the maximum total reaction load at the floor, the maximum horizontal displacement at two corners of the rack, and the maximum moments at the base of the rack.As can be seen in the following table and plot, the maximum reaction forces at the floor are essentially independent of the rack stiffness.

The moments at the base of the rack showed slight dependence on the stiffness with the moments increasing with increasing stiffness.

The rack displacements showed the greatest variation with changing stiffness, following the general trend of increasing displacement with increasing stiffness.

Note that the displacements referred to are rack translations caused by fuel to rack impacts.A stiffer rack beam causes more energy from the impact to generate translation of the entire rack rather than bending of the rack beam.Conclusions The comparison of a continuous structure and a segmented structure connected with tabs indicates that using tabs as the method of fabricating the rack will result in a stiffness about 13.5%lower than that of a continuous structure.

SSE analyses performed on a single rack model with stiffnesses ranging from 50%to 200%of the stiffness of a continuous structure indicates that the reaction loads at the floor remain constant, bending moments in the rack increase slightly with increasing stiffness, and rack displacements increase with increasing stiffness.

These results are listed in the following table and are plotted in Figure 3.5-37.51-125876S-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 133

Rack stiffness is not a critical parameter in the determination of pool floor reaction loads, rack moments, or rack displacements.

Therefore, experimental verification of the rack stiffness is unnecessary.

The stiffness used in the model of the Ginna racks is slightly higher than the actual stiffness of the rack (based on the stiffness of a continuous structure rather than a segmented structure connected by tabs).The result of using a higher rack stiffness is higher bending moments and rack displacements, thus making the use of a higher than actual rack stiffness conservative for the seismic analyses.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 134 Percent of Value at Stiffness of Continuous Structure vs.Stiffness Factor Moments, Forces, and Displacements 2PP%15P C I v 100%I 0 5p p 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 1.25 1.5 Factor Applied to Stiffness 1.75~SRSS Moments~Vertical Forces~Horizontal Displacement Figure 3.5-37 Percent of Value at Stiffness of Continuous Structure vs.Stiffness Factor 7 L

3.5.3 Structural

Evaluation The RG&E Ginna Unit 1 Spent Fuel Storage system structure, i.e., new ATEA storage racks, the resident U.S.Tool and Die racks, spent fuel pool and liner, was evaluated for license application.

For all these structures, the normal, upset, faulted, and the hypothetical accident conditions were evaluated.

The structural evaluation methods used proven design practices and current technology with innovative engineering principles.

Details of these evaluations are provided in the next subsections.

3.5.3.1 Normal, Upset and Faulted Conditions The Spent Fuel Storage System was designed to meet all applicable structural criteria for normal (Level A), upset (Level B)and faulted (Level D)conditions as defined in NUREG-0800, SRP 3.8.4, Appendix D.The dead weight, thermal, seismic and stuck fuel assembly loadings were considered.

The load combinations were performed per SRP 3.8.4, Appendix D.The combined loads were used to assess storage rack structural integrity based on allowable stress limits provided for Class 3 component support of ASME Section III, Subsection NF of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.All rack components were shown to meet the ASME Section III structural requirements.

In addition, the storage rack lifting stresses were shown to meet the NUREG-0612 lifting requirements of the heavy load lift in the nuclear power plant.The spent fuel pool evaluation was based on allowable stress limits provided in ACI 349-85.The spent fuel pool was shown to meet these stress requirements.

The pool liner evaluation was based on stress limits provided in AISC-9th edition.The pool liner was shown to meet these stress requirements.

The structural integrity was evaluated using conservative analytical methods.3.5.3.1.1 Various Inputs to the 3-D Single Rack and Whole Pool Finite Element Models 3.5.3.1.1.1 Rack Structural Properties Type 2 Rack General Information SS Wall Thickness=0.08 in.Cell Size=8.30 in.Cell Height=158.5 in.Density of SS 304 L=0.290 lb/in'orated SS thickness=0.12 in.Borated SS OD=8.38 in.Borated SS Height=145.7 in.Density of Borated SS=0.290 lb/in'ack Baseplate thickness=1.18 in.Cell bottom hole diameter=3.74 in.Length of Rack Support Leg=13.70 in.Center-center dimension (pitch)=8.43 in 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 136 Type 2 Rack Structural Properties

~I 3.5.3.1.1.2.2 Fuel Assembly Structural Properties The following structural properties were used in the rack analysis to represent the fuel assembly.The properties envelope Exxon's and Westinghouse's (standard and optimized) fuel assemblies.

Each fuel assembly represents 179 fuel rods, 16 guide tubes, and 1 instrument tube.The properties closely resemble the previous analysis (Reference 3.25, section 5.10).Fuel Assembly's Cross Sectional Area=7.1419 in'uel Assembly's Beam Shear Factor Used in ANSYS=1.89 Fuel Assembly's Area Moment of Inertia=2.17 in4 The Elastic Modulus of the Fuel Assembly (Zircaloy)

=12.0 x 10'si.Fuel Assembly's Width=7.763 in Fuel Assembly Wet Weight=1306.6 lbs (per assembly)3.5.3.1.1.3 Interface Stiffness Between Fuel and Rack The calculations were performed to generate the interface stiffness between the fuel and rack cells.The interface of interest was the impact of the upper end fitting with the stainless steel tube of the rack.This stiffness was calculated using a plate finite element model of a single cell and computer program ANSYS 5.2.A pressure load was applied in the area of contact between the upper end fitting and the cell wall while constraints prevent beam bending of the cell.The stiffness desired was only the local effect because the beams in the model already account for beam deflection.

The stiffness was then determined by dividing the total load applied by the average deflection at the top edge of the cell wall.Contact area between upper end fitting and cell wall: Type 1 (Existing Racks)Cell Height=159 in.Outside Tube Width=8.43 in.Tube Wall Thickness=0.090 in.Types 2 and 3 (New ATEA Racks): Cell Height: Type 2=158.5 in.Type 3=162 in.Inside Tube Width: Type 2=8.1417 in.Type 3=8.3386 in.Tube Wall Thickness=0.07874 in.Fuel Assembly Heights Exxon-160.13 in.Westinghouse OFA-159.710 in.Upper End Fitting Heights Exxon-6.865 in.Westinghouse OFA-3.480 in.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 143 4

Elevation of beginning of contact between upper end fitting and cell wall: Exxon: h=153.265 in.Westinghouse OFA: h=156.230 in.The model used was constructed of shell elements which were placed at the midplane of the tube walls.In the type 1 racks, there was a tube for each fuel assembly.Therefore, the load was applied to only one side of the cell.For the type 2 and 3 racks, there was one tube for every two fuel assemblies.

Therefore, the load was applied in the same direction on opposite sides of the tube.The deflections were generated from the finite element model.The stiffness was then determined by dividing the total load applied by the average deflection at the top edge of the cell wall, which is summarized below: Fuel Cell Impact Stiffness summary: Type 1 (Existing U.S.Tool&Die Racks): 4449 lb/in.Type 2 and Type 4 (New ATEA Racks): 7036 lb/in.Type 3 (New ATEA Racks): 6595 lb/in.3.5.3.1.1.4 Damping Structural damping was specified in the seismic analysis.The computer program ANSYS provided five choices (or five forms)to input damping values.Among them Rayleigh Damping (also called as alpha and beta damping)method was used in the Ginna seismic analysis, where The Damping Matrix.[C]=a[M]+P[iq The values of a and P are not generally known directly, but can be calculated from modal damping ratios,$i.Where$i is the ratio of actual damping to critical damping for a particular mode of vibration, i.If oi;is the natural circular frequency of mode i, a and P satisfy the relation: a P,+I 26)2 I since 6)=2 7r f I I a+of P 4 mf I 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 144 Only one set of a and I3 are input in an analysis, so one needs to select the dominant frequency active in that load step, to calculate u and I3.In the storage rack seismic analysis, the fuel assembly impact was dominant.For that reason, the fuel assembly&equencies were used in the calculations of u and P values.Also, it was considered that the first three modes of the fuel assembly were important in the seismic analysis.The values for n and P were developed for first three modes of fuel assembly frequencies.

The damping (gi)values were taken&om U.S.NRC Regulatory Guide 1.61 (Reference 3.11), for welded steel structure.

For the seismic analyses, the pitch direction loading was more appropriate and was used.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 146 Nomenclature:

3.5.3.1.2 Rack Tube Connecting Tabs and Tube Retainer Plate Welds The tab plates are welded to rack cells (tubes)in order to maintain the structural integrity of the rack.The primary function of tabs is to provide a transfer of the shear flow between the tubes.In ATEA racks, mutually perpendicular pairs of tabs are welded to adjacent interior stainless tubes.For both type 2 and type 3 racks, there are 4 pairs of uniformly spaced tabs per each interior tube edge.Tab stresses are derived from the following three stress components:

only.The pool runs.lop Kook Pione a)Interior rack beam loads resulting from seismic full pool rack analyses.Base plate shear force components are assumed to act as uniformly distributed loads along rack height, and develop shear stresses acting upon tabs.Resultant interior rack bending moments induce normal stresses in rack tubes, but not in tabs which are exposed to shear rack forces and moments are provided from the full IIz b)Rack-to-fuel beam (regular fuel assembly or consolidated fuel canister)impact loads.Depending on an impact direction relative to tab orientation, two impact models are considered.

Section 3.5.3.1.2.2 describes the rack to fuel beam impact models in more detail.Obtained tab loads are superimposed to the condition"a)" shear stresses.Note that the internal rack force and moment resultants obtained from the full pool analyses are reflected in the"a" tab shear stress components calculation.

Impact loads also produce normal (axial)stresses in tabs, as well as bending moment in both tabs and tab welds.Resvttont Siose Peyote Seisin@Looos~I I I I c)Thermally induced stresses due to"Normal-To" and"Abnormal-Ta" thermal conditions.

Section 3.5.3.1.10 covers thermal stress calculation.

Depending on the load combinations, thermal stresses for the two conditions are superimposed to the combined"a" and"b" stresses.3.5.3.1.2.1 Tab/Weld Stresses due to Seismic Loads This section evaluates the maximum shear stresses developed in rack tubes interconnecting tabs, developed as a result of seismic rack shear forces Fx and Fy.Assuming clamped simple beam as an equivalent of rack tubes, seismic shear force resultants Fx and Fy are considered uniformly distributed across the rack tube height.At any rack tube cross-section parallel to the base plate, parabolic shear stress distribution is developed.

Maximum shear stresses occur nearby the base plate, i.e.in the lowest tab group, and also along the rack tube cross section neutral axes: V=-Q I'(Zt)51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 150 A)*4~<<

V OBE: 811 lbs x 1.12 (stress enveloping factor)=908 lbs SSE: 1,331 lbs x 1.20 (stress enveloping factor)=1,597 Ibs Considering tab and tab-to-tube welds strength, two possible impact scenarios are distinguished:

a)Longitudinal tab impact b)Lateral tab impact A)Longitudinal rab impact refer to a case where the impact force is transmitted along the tab, so that the force direction is parallel to the tab plane.Each stainless steel tube corner is connected to its neighboring SS tubes with a set of tab pairs, mutually perpendicular to each other.This design enables transmission of fuel to rack tubes impacts in either X or Y directions.

This analysis also conservatively assumes that series of tabs perpendicular to the assumed impact direction do not contribute as stress bearing elements.Actual stresses in longitudinal tabs are therefore lower than predicted.

Figure 3.5-38 depicts top view of a pair of SS tubes connected with a tab set parallel to the direction of the impacting force, assumed here to act horizontally.

Figure 3.5-38 Longitudinal Tab Impact Model Type 2 Tab ype 3 o.b Gap width: Type 2: d=0.0717" Type 3: d=0.657" A finite element model of the rack tube with integral tabs is constructed to obtain impact load distribution across all tube tabs.Impact resultants are obtained for all tube model tabs, and are based on 1,000 lbs total impact force.Maximum resultant impact reactions acting upon a single tab for type 2 and 3 rack tubes are then applied to a single tab finite element model with neighboring SS tubes, as shown in Fig.3.5-38.

Tab model consists of 3 shell finite elements, while half of an each SS tube side is discretized into six shell elements.Tab to tube welds are modeled so that welded tab edges share common edges of the corresponding SS tube finite elements.Obtained stress reactions used for tab (base metal)and weld strength qualification are listed in the table below: 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 153 Fx[Ibs]Fy[lbs]Fz[Ibs]45.3 9.5 215.3 110.3 58.4 Mx[in-lbs]negligible negligible My[in-lbs]Mz[in-lbs]21.6 21.38 136 41.32 Local tab coordinate system where the force and moment components are defined is shown in the sketch below: fz I I I I y l~I I I Overall tab length: type 2: L=1.3487" type 3: L=2.329" Tab height: h=7.0866" Tab thickness:

The following results were obtained: Shear Force[Ibs](*)0.145*P-1.077*P P-0.077*P Bending Moment[in-lbs]0.0248*P 0.0496*P 0.039*P 0.0226*P (*)positive shear force direction is assumed to be in direction of applied P, ie.downward.The largest bending moment will be developed at node 2, if P reaches limit value P, causing yielding of the tab cross section.The corresponding bending moment limit is: bt2 H=a-l Y=143.3 in-lbs 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 156 where ais the tab material yield strength (21.3 ksi for SS 304L, taken at 150'F).Hence, the limit load is then P=M/0.0496=2,888 lbs.The average shear at that cross section can be estimated as E=(0.145+1.077)P/(bt)=8,343 psi<9,420 psi (Service Level A or B Stress Acceptance Criteria for pure shear).The maximum cumulative impact loads between fuel and rack beam, for the new'TEA racks are for both OBE and SSE conditions less than limit load estimated value P..Hence, it is concluded that the type 2 rack tabs>vill not undergo permanent deformation if impacted by an adjacent loaded BSS tube.This consideration excludes the fact that only part of the above expected impact loads would be transmitted to a single tab, as well as that the other BSS tube corner or edge would impact another tab group welded to the other SS tube corner.The maximum combined stress developed in fillet weld at node 1 in Fig.3.5-39 is estimated as s=~o'+~'here o is the bending moment induced stress in weld, and x is the vertical shear at the same location.Hence, where M,=0.0248*(0.5*P;,), and P;,=the total BSS tube to tab impact load (listed above)I=(ba)/12, the tab cross section moment of inertia (a=0.0315" or 0.8mm the weld throat)V,=0.145 (0.5*P;)A,=ba, the effective weld shear area (reduced to its throat)Results are tabulated below:.OBE SSE P;,=908 lbs P;=1597 lbs cr=9.65 ksi a=16.9ksi C=0.295 ksi C=0.52 ksi S=9.654 ksi S=16.91 ksi The allowable fillet weld metal stresses are 21 ksi for Service Level A (OBE), and 31.5 ksi for Service Level D (SSE).Therefore, tab welds can withstand estimated impact forces with margin of safety greater than 86%(for both SSE and OBE conditions).

Superimposed loading conditions are: 1)Seismically induced tab/weld stresses (Section 3.5.3.1.2.1).

2a)Stresses due to the longitudinal impact (Section 3.5.3.1.2.2.A).

Stresses are obtained for 1,000 lbs total impact force, and scaling factors have to be applied for OBE (0.908)and SSE (1.6)conditions, 2b)Stresses due to the lateral impact (Section 3.5.3.1.2.2.B).

An assumption is made that maximum'thermal stresses occurring in rack tubes conservatively envelop tab/welds thermal stresses.The rack thermal finite element model (section 3.5.3.1.10) assumes rigid connections between the rack tubes.In reality, the tubes are connected via tabs and tab-to-tube line welds.In return, the whole rack structure is more flexible than the assumed rack finite element model.Hence, the obtained stresses from the model envelop real thermal stresses in tabs and tab-to-tubes welds.Table 3.5-15 summarizes thermal stresses for Normal (To)and Abnormal (Ta)thermal conditions.

The maximum SSE plus deadweight for rack 8 equals 322,400 (per section 3.5.3.1.5 for Load case 3).The ratio of the highest deadweight plus SSE over the rack deadweight gave an acceleration value of 1.31 g (includes deadweight).

Using the time history factor of 1.2 gives a"g" value of 1.57.Therefore, the SSE loading of the BSS cell (per plate)equals 41.25*1.57

This section demonstrates the compliance of Standard Review Plan, Section 3.8.4, Appendix D, and ASME Section III, Subsection NF.The results are applicable to ATEA type 2, 3, and 4 racks.Compressive stresses in rack tubes are evaluated at the lower, base plate level, as a result of combined action of bending moments about principal axes Mand Mand vertical inertial load F, (a,=F,/A, A-material cross section for all tubes), all due to seismic activity.Total stress thus obtained is scaled with the time history enveloping factor f,equal to 1.20 for SSE or 1.12 for OBE conditions (section 3.5.2.6), as 2~2 X z jl X Y Square root of sum of squares of each peak compressive load component is taken since generally they do not occur at the same time instant.As depicted in the sketch shown below, the total compressive tube stress is evaluated for the farthest edge of the corner tube for each rack (distances xandy, measured with respect to shown principal coordinate system).This ensures conservatism of calculated stresses.Cross section properties (tube racks)for all racks are summarized in the Table 3.5-16.Corner Tube Xi Xct I I I I I Arbltr or y Tube Rock's Bose Plote 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 161 Table 3.5-16 Rack Cross-section Properties for Tubes Rack Xpr Ypr Ix-pr¹[in][in][in"4]Iy-pr At Xct Yct[in"4][in"2][in][in]7 8 9 10 11 12 13 46.4 46.4 46.2 46.1 46.1 46.2 42.7 33.7 37.9 23.1 32.3 35.5 23.1 29.4 53,893 75,257 16,308 41,407 31,335 16,308 33,486 98,523 110,201 59,240 81,057 77,073 59,240 69, 215 126.2 141.1 76.2 104.1 94.7 76.2 93.5 46.37 46.37 46.15 46.15 46.15 46.15 49.55 33.72 37.94 23.08 32'1 35.49 23.08 35.19 Note: Xpr Ypr Ix-pr Iy-pr At Xct Yct X-location of Y (NS)principal axis*Y-location of X (EW)principal axis*Principal moment of inertia (tubes)about X axis Principal moment of inertia (tubes)about Y axis Total cross section area (all tubes)Max.corner tube edge to base plate center distance in X Max.corner tube edge to base plate center distance in Y (*)principal axes are obtained for ensemble of all tubes in particular rack base plate Moments of inertia for all tubes in given rack are calculated via where n, is the total number of tubes for particular rack and I~," and I>'re principal tube moments of inertia, A,-material tube cross section and xy,-tube centroid location with respect to the principal coordinate system (as shown in the sketch above).Obtained stresses for types 2 and 3 ATEA racks are listed in Table 3.5-17 for all load cases.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 162 Table 3.5-17 Compressive Rack Corner Tube Stresses fpsi]rack¹7 10 12 13 Load Case¹1 4,286 2 3,671 3 5,675 4 4,140 5 4,297 6 5,481 7 3,439 8*2,755 9*2, 188 10*2,487 11 2,789 12*488 4, 537 4, 050 5, 683 4,477 4, 600 5, 674 3, 689 2, 966 2,294 2, 414 650 2, 108 4, 137 4, 160 6, 979 4, 076 4, 130 5, 619 3, 851 4, 113 3, 058 3, 129 6, 175 2,986 4, 198 3,724 5, 793 4, 071 4, 318 5,209 3,482 2, 767 2, 431 2,308 825 642 4, 997 4,436 6, 393 4, 864 5, 030 6, 143 4,310 4,543 2, 929 2, 885 4,428 4, 029 3, 965-3,914 6, 461 3, 947 4, 060 6,238 3,739 4,446 2, 838 2, 872 3,848 2, 925 4, 941 4, 663 6, 964 5, 217 S, 323 6, 502 4, 609 4,214 2, 805 2,730 4, 653 3, 653 (*)OBE load cases.Highest compressive stresses developed for service levels A and B (OBE condition) are from load case¹8 for rack¹11, where opgp 4,543 psi.In case of service level D (SSE condition), the worst stresses are from load case¹3 for rack¹9, where~E=6,979 psi.Per Reference 3.19 (ASME Section III, subsection NF3322 (c)(2)(eq.6a, for austenitic stainless steel), the allowable stress in compression for stainless steel gross section column member (for kLlr=11.28(types 2dc4), Il.02 (type 3))<120 is kL/r F=S 0.47 e z'44 10.29 ksi (type 2 and 4)12.31 ksi (type 3)where: S=k=L 23.15 ksiT=150'F for SS tube material (ASME Section III, Appendix I)1.0, compressive buckling coefficient (ASME Section III, subsection NF3322.2 (b)(1)), for braced frames 37.9[in], interconnecting tab welds spacing for tube's peripheral edges (type 3 rack)3.36[in], tube cross section radius of gyration (type 2 rack), 3.44[in], tube cross section radius of gyration (type 3 rack)51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 163

Additional requirements specified actual weld lengths in 10 mm increments.

Weld throat is taken to be 0.047 in (1.2 mm).Adopted weld lengths are: Weld Type 1 L[mm]40 50 60 70 80 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 167

~~

Depending on the allowable stress limits lower design factors can be developed either in welds or in the base metal (rack tube material).

Critical cross section for welds is assumed to be the throat area (throat width times weld length).In case of base metal, critical cross section is equal to a total weld length per tube side times the tube wall thickness.

Base plate welds/base metal cross section properties for each rack are listed in the Table 3.5-19.For both welds and base metal, shear area represents total weld area for all welded rack tube sides, for all tubes of a particular rack.Same welds or base metal lines are taken into account for calculating their cross section principal moments of inertia.Positions of corresponding principal axes are also listed in the Table 3.5-19.So obtained cross section properties are used for stress calculations.

Two studies have already been reported.Section 3.5.2.6 covers the determination of time history factors for SSE and OBE, and Section 3.5.2.7 covers a study of the effects of rack stiffness on stresses and deflections.

Four additional studies are reported in this section.The first study is an evaluation of the effects that increasing the rack tube height will have on the forces, moments, and displacements of the rack.The second study reported is an evaluation of the effects of attaching a peripheral rack onto the existing region 2 racks.This study includes the evaluation of the connection between the peripheral rack and the existing region 2 rack.The third study reported is an evaluation of three off-centered loading cases for half-loaded racks to find the most critical loading to be used in the whole pool model.The fourth study is a comparison of models with connected and disconnected fuel beams.3.5.3.1.7.1 Brief Description of 3-D Single Rack Model The analyses of the 3-D single rack model are performed using ANSYS 5.2, a finite element code accepted by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC)for seismic and stress analysis.The model is made up of beam elements, mass elements, contact elements and hydrodynamic coupling elements..All structural members are modeled by the BEAM4 element.The BEAM4 element is a 3-D elastic beam with six degrees of freedom at each node.Beam elements are used to model the rack legs, the baseplate, the rack tubes, and the fuel.The fuel beam and the rack beam are vertical beams located at the centroid of the rack in the horizontal plane.The fuel beam and rackbeam are connected at the bottom end.The baseplate beams extend horizontally Rom the bottom of the rack beam to the centers of the corner rack cells.At the corner rack cells, rack leg beams extend vertically downward from the ends of the baseplate beams.Each leg beam represents one fourth of the total number of rack legs.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 191 All mass is represented by MASS21 elements.The MASS21 element is a lumped mass element which can be applied in all three orthogonal directions.

The MASS21 element can also apply rotary inertia to represent the lumped mass more as a distributed mass.All contacts between the rack legs and pool liner and between the rack tubes and fuel are modeled with CONTAC52 elements.The CONTAC52 element is a 3-D point to point contact element which allows for gaps, interface stiffness, and sliding friction.All hydrodynamic coupling between the fuel and rack, and between the rack and adjacent racks are modeled with FLUID38 elements.The FLUID38 element is a hydrodynamic coupling element with two degrees of&eedom at each node, translation perpendicular to the axes of the coupled cylinders.

There are two basic single rack models.The first is a representation of rack 8 (2B), a 9x11 region 2 rack designed by ATEA, see Figure 3.5-41.The second is a representation of rack 1, an existing region 2 rack in the R.E.Ginna spent fuel pool, with a peripheral rack, rack 4A attached, see Figure 3.5-42.3.5.3.1.7.2 Study of Effects of Rack Height Increase 3.5.3.1.7.2.1 Purpose of Rack Height Increase Study During evaluation of the racks, it became apparent that the height of the racks would have to be increased.

The original design height of the tubes on the racks was 158.5 in.This height, for this study, was increased 3 in.to 161.5 in.All of the previous analyses had been performed using the shorter rack height, so this study was performed to determine the effects that this change will have on the structural seismic performance of the racks.3.5.3.1.7.2.2 Modifications Required in fhe Rack Model The following modifications were made to the standard model for rack 8 (rack 2B, 11x9)in order to represent a rack in which the tube height had been increased 3 in.1.2.3.4 5.Increase rack beam height by 3 in.Add mass of additional rack tube height, 98.6 lbs Recalculated Mass Moments of Inertia for height of 161.5 in.Scale fuel to rack hydrodynamic coupling masses by (161.5/158.5).

Scale rack to rack hydrodynamic coupling masses by (162.68/159.68).

3.5.3.1.7.2.3 Results of Rack Height Increase Study A 3 in.increase in the height of the rack tubes was found to have only minor effects on the resulting rack loads, moments, and displacements.

Table 3.5-59 provides a comparison of the results of a rack analyzed without and with the height increase.The actual height increase of the racks was 3.5 in.(to 162.0 in)rather than the 3.0 in.used in this study.However, comparing this difference with the highest analyzed ratio produced in Table 3.5-59 equals (3.5/3.0)(0.028)

=0.033, which when rounded to two significant figures still shows a maximum of 3 percent increase due to the actual height increase of the racks by 3.5 inches.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 192 Figure 3.5-41 Representation of Model for Single Rack Analysis 21 n24 GAP ELEMENT n21 n33 RACK n30 FLUID COUPLING (Fuego-Reck)

=0.033 for a total of 1.033 to account for the actual height increase of 3.5 in.rather than 3.0 in.as used in this study.This factor applies to all racks which have been increased 3.5 in.in height.However, this factor was accounted for when selecting the enveloping time history factors in Section 3.5.2.6.The actual time history factor calculated for SSE is 1.164.The combined time history factor is: SSE Time History Factor=1.164*1.033=1.2024=1.20 Thus, the time history factor selected for SSE is 1.20.Likewise, the actual time history factor calculated for OBE is 1.088.The combined time history factor is: OBE Time History Factor=1.088*1.033=1.1239=1.12 Thus, the time history factor selected for OBE is 1.12.Because the factor for increased rack height has already been accounted for in the time history factor, no additional factors need to be applied.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 195 3.5.3.1.7.3 Peripheral Rack Attachment Study 3.5.3.1.7.3.1 Purpose of Peripheral Rack Attachment Study In the whole pool models, the global effects of the peripheral racks was studied by adding the corresponding size and weight to the resident racks.However, the size and complexity of the whole pool model did not allow detailed modeling of the peripheral racks.Therefore, a model of a single peripheral rack attached to a resident rack was developed.

This model includes separate beam models for the two racks, with beams connecting the two racks.The finer detail of this model provides loadings for the connections, the legs of the peripheral rack, and the loads on the peripheral rack itself.A representation of the model used is this analysis is included as Figure 3.5-42.3.5.3.1.7.3.2 Peripheral Rack Model Input Adjustments The model to analyze the connections between the Type 4 peripheral racks consists of beam element models of the Type 1 resident rack and the Type 4 peripheral rack connected by additional beams.The beams for the lower connection link the legs of the Type 1 rack to the baseplate of the Type 4 rack.The type 4 racks are modeled with 2 legs.The upper connection is modeled as a single beam which connects the centers of the two racks.Connection Dimensions Bottom Connection (2 per model)Material is SS Type 304 width=90 mm (3.543 in.)height=20 mm (0.787 in.)length=285 mm (11.22 in.)Section Properties:

In calculating the stresses in the connection, the loads encountered during thermal accident conditions, a temperature rise&om 150'F to 180'F, must be included.The maximum loads caused by the thermal accident are horizontal leg forces equal to the dead load of the rack multiplied by the coefficient of friction betweent the leg and the pool liner.The top end of the friction range is 0.8.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 196 Table 3.5-60 Summary of OBE Results in Peripheral Rack Analysis';.';,Resident'.Rack!1:;.;"'",'Periphe'rail Rack;:4'ax.

1.2.3.4.5.Full, Unconsolidated Full, Consolidated Half Loaded, Unconsolidated Half Loaded, Consolidated Empty The cases which involve half loaded racks can be loaded off-centered, causing the higher loadings and displacements than if they are partially loaded with an even distribution.

There are three different ways to load the fuel to provide off-centered loading: 1.Load half of rack on one side of short axis.2.Load half of rack on one side of long axis.3.Load half of rack on one side of diagonal.Each of these three conditions are analyzed to determine which provides the highest loads, moments, and displacements for the half loaded racks.It should be noted that the absolute maximum racks loads occur with fully loaded racks with consolidated fuel.Further, the maximum rack displacements occur with fully loaded racks with unconsolidated fuel.3.5.3.1.7.4.2 Modifications Required to Analyze Off-Centered Loading Cases The rack modeled is rack 8 (2B), a region 2 11x9 rack.The half loaded case is modeled with 50 consolidation canisters.

The fuel beam area, fuel beam moment of inertia, fuel weight, fuel to rack interface stiffness, and fuel to rack hydrodynamic coupling are all adjusted by multiplying by 50 canisters rather than 99.The centroids of the racks are adjusted for each case to represent the off-centered loading, and the appropriate mass moments of inertia are applied.Centroid of centered loading case: x: 46.655 in.y: 38.23 in.Case 1: Load on one side of short axis.x: 66.5193 in.y: 38.23 in.Case 2: Load on one side of long axis.x: 46.655 in.y: 22.0442 in.Case 3: Load on one side of diagonal.x: 60.6336 in.y: 27.9300 in.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 200 3.5.3.1.7.4.3 Summary of Off-Centered Loading Results A summary of the results of the loadings is provided in Table 3.5-62.The results indicate that in general, the diagonal loading pattern provides the highest loads, moments and displacements.

Maximum values are shown in bold text.Five of the seven items are highest for the diagonal loading pattern.For the two items which are higher for the short axis loading case, the values for the diagonal loading are within 5 percent.Table 3.5-62 Comparison of Results for Half-Loaded Consolidated Rack 8, SSE1, Mu=0.8 Single Model Leg Horizontal Load 17,480 lbs 13,720 lbs':Diagonal';,.'::;:;:,'.:y::;,;:.:,;,::ygg,':,',;, 19,210 Ibs Single Model Leg Vertical Load 85,820 lbs 84,060 lbs 91,880 Ibs Total Vertical Load on Legs Rack Load-Horizontal Rack Load-Vertical Rack Bending Moment Leg Displacement

&om the rack (weak springs were used to connect the fuel to the rack at the base, in order to aid convergence).

The purpose of this study was to compare the results of two analyses, one with the fuel connected and one with fuel disconnected, to determine the effects of connecting the fuel on the forces, moments, and displacements seen in the rack.The objective was to justify use of the connected fuel beam model for the whole pool models.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 201 I~4 1 L Differences Between Connected and Disconnected Fuel Beam Models The first analysis was performed using a connected fuel beam (Figure 3.5-41), and the second analysis was performed using the disconnected fuel beam (Figure 3.5-31).Both analyses modeled Rack 8 (2B)with consolidated fuel, and used a coefficient of friction of 0.8 and SSE time history set number 1.The following is a list of the differences between the two models: 1.2.3.4 5.Separate node for bottom of fuel beam.The fuel mass was separated from rack mass and applied at new node.New node was attached to rack beam by weak linear and torsional springs.A hydrodynamic coupling element was added at the bottom of the fuel beam.The fuel to rack hydrodynamic coupling was redistributed, 25%at top of rack, 50%at middle of rack, and 25%at bottom of rack.Fuel to rack gap elements were added at the bottom of the fuel beam for the+X,+Y,-X, and-Y directions.

Results of Connected and Disconnected Fuel Beam Model Comparison Table 3.5-63 contains the results of the comparison between the connected and disconnected beam models.The table reports the results of the individual evaluations and the ratio of the results of the connected beam model with the disconnected beam model.The comparison shows that the differences between the results of the two models is small, and the connected beam model results are slightly higher and are therefore more conservative.

Therefore, use of the simpler connected fuel beam model is justified.

3.5.3.1.9 Support Leg and Bearing Pad Analysis The model shown in Figure 3.5-61 was used to determine the stresses in the support leg, and bearing stresses in the concrete for dead-weiglit, thermal and seismic (OBE 8'c SSE)loadings.Boussinesq's solution for elastic half-space (Reference 3.35)was also used to estimate bearing stresses in the concrete.The pool liner is a 1/4 inch ASTM A240 Type 304 SS plate.The support pads are 6.6929 inch diameter ASTM A479 Type 304L SS bar stock.The following material properties (and allowables) were used in this evaluation:

E (304L)=27.9 x 10 psi@150'(27.71 x 10 psi@180')a (304L)=8.74E-6 in/in'F180'(8.67E-6 in/in'F150')Table 3.5-127 Material Properties for the Pool Liner and Support Legs (Reference 3.19):;:;To':,.-;

In the rack analysis models, each rack was represented by only the 4 corner legs.For example, a majority of the new racks in the pool have been designed to have twelve support legs.The 3-D single rack model has four legs to represent the twelve total legs.Therefore, the load per support leg is found by dividing by 12/4 or 3.The maximum support vertical leg loads for SSE were found at a single rack with eight support legs (rack number 9 for the vertical load and rack number 12 for the maximum horizontal load).Therefore, the load was divided by 8/4 or 2 to determine the maximum load per support leg.The vertical load was applied in the Z direction (compression) and the horizontal load was the Square Root Sum of the Squares of the X and Y directions (refer to Figure 3.5-61).For the seismic load cases, there existed significant lateral (horizontal) loads on the support leg.Support leg stresses at two locations were evaluated.

The first location (case 1)evaluated was at the location of the cylinder's holes (4.05 inches below the bottom of the baseplate).

Analysis is performed on ANSYS 3D single rack plate model of the rack 88 (2B)with the largest plan projection (footprint), as well as largest number of cells.As a consequence, this will produce largest increase in overall linear dimensions of the rack structure.

1)Normal or Upset Condition (To)-This thermal condition is produced when an isolated storage location has a fuel assembly generating heat at the maximum postulated rate.Surrounding storage tubes are assumed to contain no fuel assemblies.

In lieu of running a full thermal analysis to~determine the actual temperature distribution along the inner and outer hot cell walls, it was conservatively assumed that the outside tube wall temperature remains at 150'F, while the inner wall temperature is kept at 212'F.This results in a conservative 62'F temperature differential across the 2 mm (0.0787 in)thick tube wall.This maximum DT assumption envelopes the actual thermal distribution in the cell walls due to a maximum outlet water bulk temperature which exits the cell at 224'F, and linearly drops to the tube inlet temperature of 150'F.The hot cell outside water bulk.temperature is assumed to be 150'F, and temperature drop through the wall's adjacent boundary layers is not considered.

Due to this temperature differential, thermal growth of the hot cell induces membrane and bending stresses in the rack base plate and tube walls.Stress contours in rack cells around middle hot cell are shown in Figures 3.5-64 (top plane)and 3.5-65 (mid plane).Half of the rack is shown, since the stress distribution is symmetric about NS direction.

Base plate stress contours are shown in Figures 3.5-66 (top plane)and 3.5-67 (mid plane).Summarized, the local hot cell maximum thermal stresses are: a)Tube walls: membrane=3,837 psi;membrane+bending

Thedesignbyanalysisprocedureisemployed forqualification.

Thenumberof earthquake cycles is per Standard Review Plan, Section 3.7.3, Subsection II.2 (NUREG-0800).

The acceptable maximum stress range in various storage rack structures is based on the design criteria given in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code-Section III, Rules of Construction of Nuclear Power Plant Components, Division I, 1989 edition.Hereafter it is referred to as the ASME Code (Reference 3.19).The acceptable maximum stress range in pool liner structures is based on the design criteria given in the American Institution of Steel Construction, Manual of Steel Construction, Part 5-Specification and Codes, Ninth Edition.Hereafter it is referred to as the AISC Code (Reference 3.21).The fuel storage racks are considered Class 3 component supports and are plate and shell type supports.Design rules given in Subsection NF of the Code are utilized in the evaluation.

General requirements concerning stress determination, definitions, derivation of stress intensities, derivation of stress range, and classification of stresses are per Subsections NB and NF of the ASME Code.Per Subsection NF of the Code, the secondary stresses evaluation is not required for the Class 3 supports.However, as a conservative approach, the range of primary plus secondary stresses is evaluated against the lower of two times yield strength or ultimate tensile strength at the design temperature.

For the pool liner, the definition of'Loading Condition,'ype and location of'stress category,'nd

Review of the natural frequencies of the structure indicates that the majority of the stresses in the structure will be induced during low frequency excitation.

The frequency of the racks loaded with fuel assemblies ranges from 7 to 26 Hz (following table).The majority of rack first mode frequencies are less than 20 Hz.The frequency of the empty rack ranges from 24 to 72 Hz.Being of a high frequency structures, the empty racks will behave like a rigid structure.

Loaded spent fuel storage racks will induce the majority of stresses.Therefore, most of the stresses in the structure will be induced by a frequency of less than 20 Hz.For a conservative fatigue analysis, the stress cycles are taken at 20 cycles per second.Spent Fuel Storage Racks-First Mode Frequency::;.':!::,:,':,::',,':Ra:;::,:;"::',:::;

The high density fuel storage racks are designed for five OBE's and one SSE.Number of stress cycles=Number of earthquakes x time in second for the strong motion earthquake x Fundamental mode in Hz.Number of stress cycles during OBE=5 x 5 x 20=500 cycles Number of stress cycles during SSE=1 x 20 x 20=400 cycles.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 267 Storage Rack Fatigue Analysis-Per Subsection NF of the ASME Code, no peak stress.or fatigue evaluation is required for Class 3 supports.However, as a conservative approach, the peak stress range, fatigue evaluation, and cumulative damage are calculated per Subsection NB-3222.4 of the Code.The range of primary plus secondary stresses is limited to the lower of 2Sy or Su, per ASME Code Section III, Table NF-3522(b)-1, Note 5.The material properties of the rack material are tabulated below at design temperature.

The design temperature of the storage rack is 150'F.The material properties given in the ASME Code Section III, Appendix I, are interpolated to get properties at 150'F.Sy ksi SU ksi E lb/in~ASTM A-240 Type 304L ASTM A-479 Type 304L 23.15 23.15 63.1 68.1 27.9 x 10'7.9 x 10'he allowable range of primary plus secondary stress (lower of 2Sy or Su at design temperature) is 46.3 ksi.Alternating stress Sa=~/i (Stress Range):.Sa=/ix46.3

=23.15ksi The storage rack fatigue analysis is performed per ASME Code Section III, Subsection NB-3222.4.First, the effect of elastic modulus (E)is considered since the E for the fuel storage racks is different from the ASME Code Section III, Figures I-9.2.1, and I-9.2.2.The effect of elastic modulus is considered by multiplying Sa by the ratio of the modulus of elasticity given on the design fatigue curve to the value of the modulus of elasticity of the fuel storage racks.Sa=23.15 x (28.3/27.9)Sa=23.48 ksi In order to ensure that the fatigue analysis is conservative, a stress concentration factor of 4 is applied to Sa.Therefore:

Sa=4(23.48 ksi)=93.92 ksi Figure I-9.2.1 of the ASME Code Section III (Reference 3.19)is used to calculate the allowable number of cycles at the given alternating stress.The number of allowable cycle at 93.92 ksi alternating stress is 2000.Cumulative usage factor U=nl/N1+n2/N2 U=(500/2000)

Pool Liner Fatigue Analysis-The pool liner fatigue analysis is performed per Part 5, Appendix K of the AISC Code-Ninth Edition.The allowable tensile stress for the liner is 0.6Fy (Part 5, Chapter D-1 of the AISC Code).The tensile property for the liner at 150'is: ASTM A-240 Type 304 Stainless steel Fy=27.5 ksi (Appendix I, ASME Section III):.Allowable tensile stress is=0.6Fy=0.6 x 27.5=16.5 ksi Stress range=2 x 16.5=33 ksi The total number of OBE+SSE stress cycle is 900.These stress cycles are lower than 20,000.Therefore, Load Condition¹1 of the Table A-K4.1 (AISC Code)will be applicable to the pool liner.For the pool liner welded connections, the Stress Category B of the Table A-K4.2 (AISC Code)will be applicable.

For Loading Condition¹1 and Stress Category B, the allowable stress range is 49 ksi for fatigue strength, per Table A-K4.3 of the AISC Code.Since the pool liner stress range is 33 ksi, the pool liner meets the fatigue requirements of the AISC Code.Conclusion

-Rochester Gas&, Electric's R.'E.Ginna Unit 1 high density spent fuel storage racks meet the fatigue requirements of the ASME Code Section III, Subsection NB-3222.4, and the pool liner meets the fatigue requirements of the AISC Code, Section 5, Appendix K.All of these hardware have more than adequate fatigue life.3.5.3.1.12 Rack Base Plate Evaluation Rack¹8 (2B), which is a 9xl 1 rack, was chosen for the thermal stress calculations since it has the largest plan projection (footprint).

As a consequence, this will produce the largest thermal stresses due to the differential thermal growth during the faulted thermal accident, Ta.The maximum rack loads generated during a seismic event (SSE)were applied to the ANSYS 3D single rack plate model.The fuel load consisted of consolidated fuel canisters (all cells loaded), with the coefficient of friction equal to 0.8.This set of conditions produced the maximum loads in the rack structure, and was used to envelope the maximum base plate stresses for all the new racks.Additional conservatism was introduced into the analysis by constraining all the rack legs.The loads obtained from the rack full pool seismic analysis were taken as the maximum values for each force and moment component (which generally do not achieve their maximums at the same time instant).The use of the individual maximum values assures a conservative combination of rack loads.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 269 The highest stresses in the base plate occur in the vicinity of the supports.The highest loaded legs are the corner legs, which are subjected to compression due to the vertical load (weight)and also due to the maximum bending about the two horizontal axes.The thermally induced stresses (section 3.5.3.1.10)further increase base plate corner stresses.The base plate membrane stress is shown in Figure 3.5-73, and Figure 3.5-74 shows the corresponding membrane plus bending stress.The analysis results for the base plate are summarized in the table below:::>>j~';'i::Lo'a'd':Coiiibi'nation

The standard stipulates that the spent fuel assemblies should be in a safe configuration through earthquake including its sloshing effects.Both seismic OBE and SSE conditions are evaluated for the sloshing effects.Acceptance Criteria: The safe configuration of the spent fuel assemblies is validated by verifying:

a)Change in hydrostatic pressure due to sloshing-impulsive force is negligible.

b)Height of sloshing waves is small such that the spent fuel racks will remain submerged in spent fuel water at all times.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 272 Sloshing Analysis Nomenclature A, Maximum displacement of W, d Maximum water-surface displacement EBP Excluding Bottom Pressure IBP Including Bottom Pressure g Acceleration of gravity h Height of water surface above the bottom of pool hh, Vertical distance from the pool bottom to W, and W, respectively One half length of rectangular pool wall M Bending moment or overturning moment on horizontal section of pool at the bottom P P~Impulsive and convective forces, respectively T Period of vibration 6 Maximum horizontal acceleration of the ground during an earthquake W Weight of fluid in a pool W, Equivalent weight of fluid to produce the impulsive force P, on the pool wall W, Equivalent oscillating weight to produce the convective force P, on pool wall OAngular amplitude of free oscillations at the water surface p Mass density of fluid Circular&equency of free vibration for the n~mode Sloshing: The method of calculating seismically induced fluid pressure and maximum wave motion has been developed by Housner (TID-7024, Reference 3.27).The method applies to a flat bottomed, vertically oriented tank of uniform rectangular section.When a tank containing fluid of weight W is accelerated in horizontal direction, a certain portion of the fluid acts as if it were a solid mass of weight W, in rigid contact with walls and remainder weight W, will oscillate.

Assuming the tank moves as a rigid body, bottom and walls will undergo the same acceleration.

The acceleration induces oscillations of the fluid, contributing additional dynamic pressure on the walls and bottom.The maximum amplitude, Aof the horizontal excursion of the mass determines the vertical displacement, d, of the water surface, slosh height.Both impulsive pressure and the slosh height are calculated.

3.5.3.1.14 Summary of Gap Closure from Five (5)OBE's Plus One (1)SSE~The cumulative movement of the racks within the pool due to a combination of seismic events is addressed in this section.A total of five (5)OBE events and one (1)SSE event is accounted for.The relative closure between the racks is tabulated for both East-West and North-South directions.

The maximum rack displacements occur with the lowest coefficient of friction equal to 0.2, and the racks completely loaded with unconsolidated fuel.The low hydrodynamic coupling values for unconsolidated fuel (versus higher hydrodynamic coupling for the consolidated fuel)combined with the maximum fuel load per rack (full racks)cause the maximum displacements to occur.Therefore, the total closure calculated from this section is taken from loading cases with racks completely

.loaded with unconsolidated fuel and coefficients of&iction equal to 0.2.The final position of the racks (both translations and rotations) for the OBE events is combined using the SRSS method.The time-history factor for the OBE events (1.12)is then multiplied by the SRSS value for the 5 OBEs.This process is applied to both displacements and rotations.

The maximum motions during the entire SSE event (displacements at the top of the racks)were then used for SSE.The time-history factor of 1.20 was used for the SSE events.For conservatism, all OBE final relative displacements were taken as"closure", even though many were actually showing an"opening" between the two bodies.Further, to add to the overall conservatism, the relative lateral displacements due to rack rotations were additive for each rack rotation, regardless as to the actual rotations between the two bodies.For example, for small angles of rotation, with two racks rotating the same direction for similar angles, the relative gap between two corners would remain the same.Also the effects of higher hydrodynamic coupling between two bodies that have a smaller gap between them during successive seismic events are not accounted for.The nomenclature for the following tables are as follows: WW=West Wall, NW=North Wall, EW=East Wall and SW=South Wall.In conclusion, using a conservative approach, none of the racks impact with any other rack or with the walls during the cumulative effects of 5 OBE's and 1 SSE.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 279 Maximum Gap Closure for 5 OBE's+1 SSE (With Perimeter Racks)Horizontal East-West Relative Displacements (in)Table 3.5-133 Relative Disp.Due to East-West Translation 1st Rack WW WW 1 2 3 4 5 5 6 6 6 8 9 10 11 12 13 2nd Rack 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 8 9 10 11 12 13, EW EW EW 1 OBE 0.0161 0.0057 0.0063 0'079 0.0122 0.0104 0.0239 0.0111 0.0167 0.0216 0.0153 0'419 0.0009 0.0988 0.0333 0.0126 0.1060 5 OBE's 0'359 0.0127 0'141 0.0177 0.0273 0.0233 0.0534 0.0248 0.0374 0.0484 0.0343 0.0937 0.0020 0.2209 0.0746 0.0282 0.2370 1.12 X 5 OBE's 0.0402 0.0142 0.0158 0.0198 0.0306 0.0261 0.0598 0.0278 0.0419 0.0542 0.0384 0.1049 0.0022 0.2474 0.0836 0.0316 0.2654 1 SSE 0.1680 0.1903 0.0731 0.0924 0.0592 0.0619 0.1595 0.2060 0.1844 0.2151 0.1230 0.2750 0.3473 0.1738 0.2076 0.1312 0.1991 1.2 X 1 SSE 0.2016 0.2284 0.0877 0.1109 0.0711 0.0743 0.1914 0'472 0.2213 0.2581 0.1476 0.3300 0.4168 0.2086 0.2491 0.1574 0.2389 Total Disp.0.2418 0.2426 0.1035 0.1308 0.1017 0.1004 0.2512 0.2750 0'632 0.3123 0.1860 0.4349 0.4190 0.4560 0.3327 0.1890 0.5044 Table 1st Rack 3.5-134 Relative East-West Disp.Due to 2nd 1.12 X Rack 1 OBE 5 OBE's 5 OBE's 1 SSE Rotation 1.2 X Total 1 SSE Disp.WW WW 1 2 3 4 5 5 6 6 6 8 9 10 11 12 13 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 8 9 10 11 12 13 EW EW EW 0.0089 0.0144 0.0123 0.0148 0.0055 0.0020 0.0028 0.0035 0.0030 0.0123 0.0032 0.0139 0.0279 0.0050 0.0124 0.0172 0.0033 0.0199 0.0322 0.0275 0.0331 0.0123 0.0045 0.0063 0.0078 0.0067 0.0275 0.0072 0.0311 0.0624 0.0112 0.0277 0.0385 0.0074 0.0223 0.0361 0.0308 0.0371 0.0138 0.0050 0.0070 0.0088 0.0075 0.0308 0.0080 0.0348 0.0699 0.0125 0.0311 0.0431 0.0083 0.0274 0'308 0.0469 0.0357 0.0485 0.0275 0.0423 0.0510 0.0447 0.0447 0.0480 0.0989 0.0796 0.0844 0.0769 0'576 0.0591 0.0329 0.0370 0.0563 0.0428 0.0582 0.0330 0.0508 0.0612 0.0536 0.0536 0.0576 0.1187 0.0955 0.1013 0.0923 0.0691 0.0709 0.0552 0'730 0.0871 0.0799 0.0720 0.0380 0.0578 0.0700 0'612 0.0844 0.0656 0.1535 0.1654 0.1138 0.1233 0.1122 0.0792 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 280

The ATEA-spent fuel rack designs utilize BSS as a neutron absorber only, and is functionally designed as a non-structural component.

The BSS plates are designed to transmit only compressive loads within the structural framework of the racks.No tension or bending loads are transmitted given the inherent cell-to-cell gaps, the specific bearing load transmission features between the BSS and adjacent structural cells, the compliance of the interlocking features of the BSS plates, and the compliance of the non-fixity free-standing conditions of the BSS cell itself.Interlocking fingers (straight mortises and tenons)machined along the edges of the BSS plates serve a dual purpose.Four individual BSS'plates are assembled to form a square tube cell without the use of mechanical (i.e., screws or pins)or fusion (i.e., weld or adhesive)joining processes.

The BSS cell slides inside the rack frame cell as an interlocked unit during fabrication.

The interlocking fingers are designed such that sufficient clearances are provided to permit the joint to rotate and slip.The joint mitigates fuel assembly impact loading within the BSS cell while maintaining proper finger overlap and sufficient plate engagement.

The design tolerances are such that a minimum engagement of one-half of a plate thickness is ensured.While the design provides compliance for internal loads, i.e., fuel assembly impact loads, the mortise and tenon joint maintains the square cell geometry when transmitting loads between the structural cells.The transmission of lateral loads within the ATEA type 2A-B rack structural frame is achieved through a series of bearing retainer plates and corner tabs welded to the stainless steel cells.The retainer plates also serve to axially constrain the BSS cell within its designated rack cell.Lateral gaps between the BSS and stainless steel integral cell in addition to the non-fixity features of the BSS cell itself serve to mitigate bending loads in the BSS plates.The transmission of lateral loads between the ATEA type 3A-E rack structural frame and the BSS cells is achieved through a series of stainless steel"bands" located at discrete axial locations along the length of the BSS cells.The band is assembled as two pieces fitting into mortice joints on the BSS plates and then welded to each other to form an integral band around the BSS cell.Given the&eestanding boundary conditions of the BSS cell and lateral gaps between the bands and adjacent structural cells, rigid body motion is allowed with negligible bending moments produced in the BSS cell.Transmission of loads are entirely bearing in nature.The BSS plates are sandwiched between the stainless steel structural cells for the ATEA type 4 racks with the transmission of loads being bearing in nature.Any moment loads due to type 1 rack impact would be in-plane and result in negligible stresses.Impact between the type 4 racks and the pool wall does not exist.Results from the rack analyses show that subsequent rack frame loads and displacements are insufficient to load the BSS cell in bending or tension.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 283 Dynamic loadings were generated by computer models for the various rack designs.These models included the BSS plates and the various rack component masses.G-force loadings were generated at locations where the bearing retainer plates axially constrain the BSS plates within the type 2 stainless steel rack cell and also at the rack base plate seating surface for the type 3 racks.The retainer plate welds and rack base plate are designed to carry the full vertical dynamic loadings from the BSS plates/cells-to the stainless steel rack structure.

Analyses contained in the Sections 3.5.3.1.2.5 and 3.5.3.1.12 demonstrate the integrity of the retainer plate weld tabs and baseplate respectively.

Lateral loads and subsequent moments and displacements were also generated for the rack cells.Resulting displacements were small and within the available design gaps.In addition, the BSS plates offer'very little resistance due to its lack of restraint at the ends as the plates are only captured and not fixed (welded or pinned)to the rack structure.

The in-plane bending (across the width of the plate)displacement due to its own mass is negligible, and bowing along the plate length is precluded by the interlocking fingers with adjacent plates.Thermal Stresses in BSS When a freshly discharged fuel assembly is stored in a Borated Stainless Steel (BSS)cell, the BSS plate temperature increases.

The temperature distribution is isotropic in each section, so that the BSS cell expands in an isotropic way (without stresses).

The amount of expansion, calculated in a very conservative way (assuming a saturated boiling temperature, 238.9'F, in the BSS cell and only 120'F in the SS cell outside)can be evaluated as follows: Where Lateral Expansion:

=a(b,T)L=(8.872E-6)(238.9-120)(8.4)

=0.009 in.<Existing Gap=0.016 in.a=8.872E-6 in/in/'F at 238.9'F L,=8.4 in.(BSS width)Vertical Expansion:

=a(b,T)L, Where L2=145.7 in.(BSS height)=(8.872E-6)(238.9-120)(145.7)

=0.154 in.<Existing Gap=0.197 in.Therefore, under no circumstances will the BSS be constrained by the surrounding SS cell.Further, an additional gap exists between the notches in the BSS plates due to laser cutting during the manufacturing process.Therefore, the BSS plates will adequately function as the neutron attenuator and will provide a safe environment for storing spent fuel and fresh nuclear fuel assemblies.

3.5.3.1.16 U.S.Tool dt Die Rack Structural Evaluation Racks 1 through 6 are resident racks and will be kept in the new pool configuration.

Those racks are referred as Racks 1 through 6.Those racks have been licensed in the Rochester Gas&Electric's Ginna spent fuel pool, NRC SER dated November 14, 1984, Amendment 65 to License No.DPR-18.Hereafter, this is referred as 1985 Licensing Basis.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 284

The gaps in the new configuration are designed such that new ATEA racks do not impact U.S.Tool and Die racks under normal and all seismic conditions.

However, due to hydrodynamic coupling, there will be some load transfer between resident and new racks.To establish these loads, the new seismic analysis includes all racks in the pool, in the whole pool model.The new seismic loads are generated for both resident and new racks.Tables 3.5-139 and-140 provide summary of seismic loads on U.S.Tool and Die racks.The loads are summarized from new analysis and also&om 1985 Licensing Basis.Review of these tables indicates that the new seismic loads on U.S.Tool and Die racks and rack support are lower than the original licensing basis.This is true for both OBE and SSE conditions.

Therefore, the stresses in the U.S.Tool and Die racks will be lower than the 1985 Licensing Basis.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 285 Table 3.5-139 Seismic Loads on Racks 1 through 6-at the Base of Rack',5>..U;S'Tool gr,';:Die Analysis:,":$

Summary The loads and stresses in the U.S.Tool and Die racks are lower than the 1985 Licensing Basis.Therefore, the U.S.Tool and Die racks meets the structural acceptance criteria.3.5.3.1.17 Spent Fuel Pool and Liner Structural Evaluation This section demonstrates compliance of RGEcE Ginna Unit 1 spent fuel pool and pool liner structural integrity with the requirements of NUREG-0800, Standard Review Plan 3.8.4, Appendix D requirements.

The spent fuel pool evaluation is based on a conservative interpretation of the American Concrete Institute*s Code Requirements for Nuclear Safety Related Concrete Structures ACI 349-85 (Reference 3.20).The pool liner evaluation is based on a conservative interpretation of the American Institute of Steel Construction's Building Code AISC-9th Edition (Reference 3.21).51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 287 C

The design of new high density storage racks is such that it preserves the original licensing basis (NRC SER dated November 14, 1984), here afler referred to as the 1985 licensing basis, for the spent fuel pool liner and pool concrete.The new ATEA storage racks are&ee standing racks, and they are supported on the pool floor only.The gaps between the rack and the pool are designed such that the new racks do not impose any additional loadings on the pool wall.These conditions are verified throughout the analysis.The new racks are high density storage racks and they will store more fuel.The number of support legs are designed such that the new racks do not impose any higher loading to the pool liner or the pool concrete.This also verified during analysis.The support legs are positioned on the liner such that they are away from the liner weld seams.The pool and the liner temperatures are kept the same as the original design basis.Therefore, there are no additional thermal loadings on the pool or the liner.The pool water level is kept the same as the original design basis.Therefore, there are no additional hydrostatic or hydrodynamic loads on the pool or the liner.This design requires, only, verification of bearing loads on the liner and concrete.Acceptance Criteria-Spent Fuel Pool Liner The spent fuel pool liner is designed to AISC Code.The storage rack support pads are designed such that they do not rest on liner weld seam.The support pads primarily induce bearing loads on the liner.The redesign only changes floor bearing loads Bearing Allowable 0.9 Fv Per AISC Liner Fatigue Analysis per AISC, Appendix K Acceptance Criteria-Spent Fuel Pool Concrete The spent fuel pool concrete is designed per requirements ACI 349-85.The storage racks being&ee standing structure, primarily induces bearing load on concrete at support pad locations.

The redesign only changes floor bearing loads.Bearing Allowable$(0.85 f,)Per ACI 349, Section 10.15~Demonstrate that there are no rack-to-wall impacts Pool Liner Evaluation The pool liner bearing stress analysis is performed in Section 3.5.3.1.9.1.2.

Table 3.5-131 presents the results of the stress analysis.The results indicate that there is a large margin against AISC Code allowable.

Section 3.5.3.1.11 presents the result of the pool liner fatigue analysis.The results indicate that the pool liner meets the fatigue requirements of the AISC Code, Ninth Edition, Section 5, Appendix K, and the liner has adequate fatigue life.Therefore, the structural integrity of the liner is maintained.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 288 Spent Fuel Pool Structural Evaluation This vertical reaction is transferred direct ly downward to the concrete through the liner plate.The maximum applied concrete bearing stresses for all load combinations is less than 3,570 psi.The maximum bearing stresses and the comparison of maximum bearing stresses to allowable are presented in Section 3 0.3.1.9.1.2, which indicates an adequate margin against the ACI 349-85 Code.Therefore, the structural integrity of the spent fuel pool is maintained.

3.5.3.1.18 Stuck Fuel Assembly-Uplift Force This section demonstrates compliance of Rochester Gas 4 Electric's Ginna spent fuel storage racks with Standard Review Plan-NUREG-0800, Section 3.8.4, Appendix D,'upward force on the racks caused by postulated stuck fuel assembly'equirements.

The standard for the stuck fuel assembly condition stipulates that the spent fuel racks so designed and constructed such that, if maximum uplift force of the spent fuel crane is applied, the stresses in the rack should be within service Level B stress of ASME Section III, Subsection NF (Reference 3.19).Two postulated events are considered, namely: P Case l: Axial Load of P Case 2: Load P 45 Degrees From Vertical Acceptance Criteria: The Standard Review Plan 3.8.4, Appendix D (Reference 3.4)provides the load combination to be considered and acceptable stress limits for this load combination.

The load combination per SRP 3.8.4 is: D+L+To+Pf Where: D is dead weight load, these are negligible at the top of rack.L is live load, these are zero since there is no live load To is normal condition thermal load and is negligible at the top of tube Pf is upward force on the racks caused by postulated stuck fuel assembly.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 289 The allowable stress limits are the Level B stress limits per ASME Section III, Subsection NF for Class 3 component supports (Reference 3.19).These limits per NF-3251 and Table NF-3552(b)-1 are: Primary membrane stress 1.33 S Primary membrane plus bending stress 1.995 S The structural tubes are fabricated from ASTM A240 Type 304L material.The S value at 150'from ASME Section III, Appendix I, Table I-7.2 is 15.7 ksi (Reference 3.19).Therefore, the allowable stress for this condition are: Prim'ary membrane stress 1.33 x 15.7=20.881 ksi Primary membrane plus bending 1.995 x 15.7=31.322 ksi Stuck Fuel Assembly-Uplift Analysis There are two one-ton hoists on the fuel handling bridge.One extends on each side of the bridge (East and West).Only one hoist is used to remove a stuck fuel assembly.Therefore, the total uplift force P=2,000 lbs Fuel cell-Structural Tube Cross Section Properties:

The stresses in all other, hardware e.g., tabs, base plate, tube to base plate weld, support legs, etc., are much lower than the fuel tube stresses calculated here.Conclusion:

Rochester Gas Ec Electric's Ginna Unit 1 high density spent fuel storage racks meets the Level B stress limits of ASME Section III, Subsection NF, Class 3 component support requirements for stuck fuel assembly-maximum uplift force.The design has minimum margin of safety of 11.4 against allowable stress.3.5.3.1.19 Storage Rack Lifting Analysis This section demonstrates compliance of existing Region 1 resident Wachter storage racks and new ATEA storage racks with NUREG-0612 (Reference 3.16), heavy load lifting requirements.

The standard for NUREG-0612 heavy load lifting requirements stipulates that the structure to be lifted be designed and constructed such that it has a minimum specified safety factor to preclude drop of structure on any safety related system or equipments at nuclear power plants.Existing Region 1, three Wachter racks will be removed from the spent fuel pool and seven new ATEA racks will be placed in the spent fuel pool.Four lifting points, at the bottom plate, are provided on each rack.The lifting points are diagonally across from each other.Each lifting beam-cable can'be attached to diagonally opposite lifting point.This facilitates either redundant or non-redundant lifting.The single failure proof, 30-ton auxiliary building crane will be used to lift resident racks&om the spent fuel pool and to lift new ATEA racks into the spent fuel pool.Each rack weighs more than one fuel assembly plus the fuel handling tool.For this reason, the racks are classified as heavy load per NUREG-0612 criteria.Analysis is performed for each rack to ensure compliance with the lifting requirements of NUREG-0612.

The lifting acceptance criteria is: 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 292

3.5.3.2 Accident Conditions Mechanical Accident Evaluation This section demonstrates compliance with RG&E's Ginna spent fuel storage system with the Standard Review Plan-NUREG-0800, Appendix D, hypothetical accident condition requirements.

The standards for hypothetical accident conditions stipulate that the spent fuel storage system be so designed and constructed such that, if it is subject to the specified accident conditions, spent fuel assemblies should remain in safe configuration.

This means, a)the off-site radiation dose should be within regulatory limit;and b)the fuel should remain subcritical.

The major hypothetical accident conditions evaluated are: a)b)c)d)e)Fuel assembly drop during fuel handling in the spent fuel pool Spent fuel pool canal gate drop Spent fuel pool storage rack drop Tornado missile impact Spent fuel cask drop Several of these hypothetical conditions are eliminated by administrative procedure and/or by the use of a single-failure proof lifting system.Assessment of other conditions was performed by structural analysis.Well proven classical methods were used in the performance of these analyses.Detailed information supporting these analyses are presented here.3.5.3.2.1 Methodology and Assumptions The basis for these analyses is an equating of the kinetic energy of the falling missile at impact with the elastic and plastic strain energy;i.e., an energy balance.The evaluation of the various accidents was based upon the conservative assumption that under stress&om a uniform vertical load, the structural tubes will reach compressive yield using a reduced effective tube area.In order to judge the reasonableness of methodology, two results should be established; namely ductility factor and total deformation.

The ductility factor is defined as the ratio of total strain to plastic strain.The total deformation is calculated directly&om the energy balance.The elastic and plastic strains are based upon the deformations and the height of the target structure.

The greater the height of the target structure, the lesser will be the plastic strain.The target structure is selected as that portion of the racks above the borated stainless steel.Therefore, the calculated plastic strains and hence ductility factors are very conservative.

For drops onto the top surface of the racks, the checkerboard pattern means that the number of structural tubes is about one half of the number of storage cells.As the dropped object impacts the top of the racks, the affected tubes yield.However, the effect does not remain localized and will spread to the surrounding tubes through the strong interconnection provided by the welded connecting tabs.The assumption of the spreading of load only to immediately adjacent tubes is very conservative.

Suf5cient interconnecting tabs are used to prevent general or local elastic buckling 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 294 of the tubes.This design provides for capacity to accommodate the various drop accidents.

The extent of compressive yield was determined after completion of the various load drops.The stress values for buckling were determined and found to be sufficiently high.The hydrodynamic effects have been neglected in the accident drop analyses to provide conservative results.In addition, no benefit is taken for deformation or energy absorption of the falling object.3.5.3.2.2 Acceptance Criteria The standards for the hypothetical accident conditions stipulate that the spent fuel storage system be designed and constructed such that, if it is subject to the specified accident conditions, spent fuel assemblies should remain in safe configuration.

This means, a)the off-site radiation dose should be within regulatory limit;and b)the fuel should remain subcritical.

This has been verified by confirming function capability of spent fuel storage racks and the spent fuel pool as follows: Straight Deep Drop The falling fuel assembly is stopp'ed prior to impinging upon the fuel pool floor liner.Straight Deep Drop Onto Support Leg The load transmitted to the concrete will not result in crushing of concrete so as to prevent an uncontrollable leak in the pool.Shallow Drops and Tornado Missile Impact The acceptance criteria for top of rack impacts are that the required inelastic deformation must be less than 10%of the length of the deforming structural mechanism and that the ductility factor remains less than 20 (per Table 4-4 of Reference 3.32).The ductility factor of 20 as a limit has been accepted by NRC Staff in review of Bechtel Topical Report, BC-TOP-9A, Revision 2, September 1974.Significant distortion of the cells will be limited to the footprint of impact and the adjacent fuel cells.3.5.3.2.3 Fuel Assembly Drop Analysis For hypothetical fuel assembly drops, four cases were examined: a)Straight deep drop through cell.b)Same as above, except a support leg is present at the base of the cell.c)Shallow drop in which a dropped assembly strikes the top of a rack and falls flat on top of the rack.d)Shallow drop in which a dropped assembly strikes the top of a rack in a vertical position.Unconsolidated, fuel assembly drops were evaluated for the conditions outlined above.The canister containing consolidated fuel (weighing 2,638 lb)is considered heavy load per NUREG-0612 criteria and will be transported within spent fuel pool using a special tool suspended from a single failure proof auxiliary building crane.In a safety evaluation report dated December 31, 1984 the NRC Staff reviewed and approved modifications to the auxiliary building crane in order to meet the crane single-failure criteria of NUREG-0612 and NUREG-0554.

Type 2 and Type 3 Racks The drop in the middle between support legs will produce maximum deformation of the rack.In effect, a two-way slab develops.The approximate spacing of adjacent support legs is 4 x pitch of 9.2323 for type 3 racks (-37 inches).The Type 3 rack is limiting, because the maximum spacing between the support legs is in the Type 3 Rack.The results presented below will envelope Type 2 racks.37 37'ield Lines TVP.Support Leg During 172 inch fuel assembly drop impact, the welds connecting the tube to the base plate will fail.The base plate will detach from the cells in a 37" x 37" region.The 37" x 37" plate will have support at the four legs and also will have a support from remaining plate.This means the edges will have fixed support.For conservatism, the energy absorbed in breaking welds is neglected.

=1.591 x 79=125.7 kips.This impact load is lower than the load required to shear female threads (405.7 kips).For this case the inelastic strain energy is confined to the MSOx6 threaded portion of the support leg.The maximum load imparted to the spent fuel pool floor is limited to ultimate strength of the threaded portion of the leg and is 405.7 kips.Due to limited mechanism for inelastic energy absorption, the support leg female threads will fail.The load imparted to the floor will pass through the stainless steel liner.The stresses in the reinforced concrete floor are calculated using Boussinesq's solution (Reference 3.35), where P is equal to the maximum force transferred through the support legs to the floor.Using the Boussinesq solution, the maximum concrete compressive stress is at point C.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 302 ic C%~F4 P 0 V a P C A At point C r=0 t=0.25" pool liner thickness z=bearing pad diameter+2t=6.6929+2 x 0.25=7.1929 in 23 (2 y 2)2 A=108.36in'oncrete Compressive Stress=P/A=3,744 psi<4,462.5 psi:.O.K.where concrete allowable stress is 4,462.5 psi for accidental impact load for 3D confined concrete.For normal condition, concrete allowable bearing stress=$(0.85)fc (per ACI 349-85, section 10.15)For accident condition with impact load, allowable compressive stress=$(0.85)fc x 2 x DIF where:$=0.7 per section 9.3 of ACI 349-85 Fc=3,000 psi minimum strength 28 days cured concrete DIF=1.25 Dynamic impact factor for high strain rate per Table C-1 of ACI 349-85:.concrete allowable stress=0.7 x 0.85 x 3,000 x 2 x 1.25=4,462.5 psi 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 303 In addition, the concrete Code ACI 349-85, Section 9.2.6 states that"when considering these concentrated loads, local section strengths and stresses may be exceeded provided there will be no loss of intended function of any safety related systems." Since 3 foot thick reinforced concrete spent fuel pool floor is supported on hard rock and is completely confined, the localized spalling of ,concrete will not jeopardize the safety function of the pool.The indications are that, at distance below the support pad equal to the diameter of the support pad (6.6929"), the stresses are below allowable stresses.The concrete directly under the support pad is a local condition with three-dimensional confinement and, therefore, will not be damaged by the.impact load.3.5.3.2.3.2 Fuel Assembly-Shallow Drops For this hypothetical accident drop of the fuel assembly, shallow drops, two cases were analyzed.The acceptance criteria for top of rack impacts are that the required inelastic deformation must be less than 10%of the length of the deforming structural mechanism and that the ductility factor remains less than 20.For drops onto the tops of the racks, the mathematical model consists of a vertical prismatic member with a height equal to the distance from the top of the rack to the top of the borated stainless steel.Because inelastic response is confined to this upper region, the values calculated for inelastic strain and ductility factors are conservative.

If the entire rack were to be considered, the ductility factors would be reduced.The number of tubes considered in this model is the number of tubes directly impacted plus the number of tubes immediately adjacent.Due to the strong interconnection between tubes, this assumption is conservative.

As the dropped object impacts the top of the racks, the affected tubes yield;however, the effect does not remain localized.

It will spread to the surrounding tubes through the strong interconnection provided by the welded connecting tabs.The assumption of the spreading of load only to immediately adjacent tubes is conservative.

First buckling strength of the structural tube is calculated.

From this it will be investigated whether the structural tube buckling occurs in elastic or plastic range.Euler Buckling of Structural Tube Between Connection Tab Plates$=clear length between pitch of the tabs I=cross section moment of inertia of the structural tube A=cross section area of the structural tube E=Young's Modulus of the tube material at 150'F 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 304 EI7P 0 AP Rack fgge i~itch A~n I 4 E 2 Type 2 Type 3 Type 4 49.29 49.29 48.23 2.59 2.65 2.59 29.17 31.29 29.17 27.9x10',277 27.9x10',338 27.9x10 1 333 Since 0is well above the yield stress, the above results indicates that buckling will not occur in the elastic range.3.5.3.2.3.2.1 Flat Impact on Top Interface of the Racks For this hypothetical accident, the fuel assembly with handling tool is dropped&om 12 inches above the rack, the fuel assembly impacts the top of the rack and falls flat on top of the rack.For this case it is assumed that the fuel assembly is dropped vertically onto the top of the rack.After initially striking the top of the rack, the fuel assembly and handling gear rotates and falls flat on top of the racks.The total kinetic energy delivered to the top of the racks is little diminished due to the initial strike.This is due to the fact that the linear kinetic energy is converted to the rotational kinetic energy by means of a couple equal to the weight and inertial force of the fuel rod times the horizontal component of the distance between the center of gravity of the falling fuel assembly and the point of initial strike upon the top of the racks.The kinetic energy at impact=Wx d where: Weight of the fuel assembly and the tool is 1,591 lb.The drop height for shallow drop is 12 inch+half height of fuel assembly d=12+(160/2)=92 inch Kinetic energy at impact=W x d=1591 x 92=146,372 in-lb Pitch of fuel cells: Type 2 Rack Type 3 Rack Type 4 Rack 8.43 inch 9.23 inch 8.43 inch For all the accident analyses presented in this section, the total number of tubes considered in the analysis is that contained within the footprint of the impacted area, plus the tubes that are immediately adjacent.The length of fuel assembly is 160 inch or approximately 18 pitch.For new racks, every other cell is a structural tube.Therefore, initially a minimum of 9 structural tubes will 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 305

3.53.2.4 Tornado Missile Impact A tornado missile impact on the storage racks was considered.

Design values for tornado wind speed and missile characteristics are those established in NUREG-0800, Standard Review Plan 3.5.1.4 (revision 2, July 1981).The missile is characterized as a 1490 pound wood pole, 35 feet in length with a diameter of 13.5 inches.A tornado wind velocity of 132 mph (59 meter/per second)is considered per Ginna UFSAR, Section 3.5.2.1.The impact energy when the missile hits the storage racks is calculated in RG8cE Letter to NRC dated January 18, 1984, Docket No 50-244 (Reference 3.39)and is summarized below: Vertical kinetic energy at impact Horizontal kinetic energy at impact 79,000 ft-lb 8,800 ft-Ib The vertical missile impact produces the largest deformation of the racks.The rack deformation due to horizontal missile impact will be lower than the vertical impact.Both of these impact are evaluated in the following section.The acceptance criteria for top of rack impacts are that the required inelastic deformation must be less than 10%of the length of the deforming structural mechanism and that the ductility factor remains less than 20.Vertical Missile Impact The wooden pole diameter is 13.5 inches.The diagonal dimensions of structural tubes is 11.74 inches for Type 2 and Type 4 racks, and 12.02 inch for Type 3 Racks.Therefore, as a minimum two structural tubes will be impacted by a vertical impact.For drops onto the tops of the racks, the mathematical model consists of a vertical prismatic member with a height equal to the full length of the fuel tube.The number of tubes considered in this model is the number of tubes directly impacted plus the number of tubes immediately adjacent.Due to the strong interconnection between tubes, this assumption is conservative.

As the dropped object impacts the top of the racks, the affected tubes yield;however, the effect'does not remain localized.

It will spread to the surrounding tubes through the strong interconnection provided by the welded connecting tabs.The assumption of the spreading of load only to immediately adjacent tubes is very conservative.

The vertical impact energy is 79,000 ft-ib or 948,000 in-lb Initial contact will engage two structural tubes.However, due to interconnection between the tubes, a total of 8 structural tubes will absorb impact energy.The Type 2 rack structural tubes have the minimum cross section area, and will have largest deformation during a missile impact.The following calculations were performed for Type 2 racks.However, the results envelope all three types of racks.A,~-effective cross section area for 8 structural tubes.A,a=2.59 x 8=20.72 in'1-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 308 The wooden pole will split on impact.Also the wood is a good energy absorber.However, the energy absorbed in the wooden pole is neglected as a conservatism.

The impact will be of a long duration;for that reason, the entire length of the fuel tube (158.5 inch)will absorb the impact energy.Therefore, h=158.5 inch 1 z h Elastic Strain Energy=-0-2=31,542 in-lb y E off The elastic strain energy absorbed is less than the total kinetic energy.Therefore, there will be some inelastic deformation.

~1 3.5.3.2.5 Gate Drop The gate separating the spent fuel storage pool from the cask loading pit is located on the east end of the spent fuel storage pool.The gate is approximately 28'ong and 2'.5" wide.The gate weighs approximately 2100 pounds.The canal gate is considered a heavy load per NUREG-0612 criteria.The gate handling procedures will be changed such that it will be lifted within the spent fuel pool using a special tool suspended&om a single-failure proof auxiliary building crane.In a safety evaluation report dated December 31, 1984, the NRC StaF reviewed and approved modifications to the auxiliary building crane in order to meet the crane single-failure criteria of NUREG-0612 and NUREG-0554.

Therefore, handling of the canal gate will be performed in accordance with the.guidelines of NUREG-0612 with regard to limiting the chance of unacceptable heavy load drop.3.5.3.2.6 Rack Drops The lifting analysis of the racks was performed to qualify the racks to lifting criteria of NUREG-0612.Section 3.5.3.1.19 provides results of the lifting analysis.The results indicate adequate margin against lifting by either a redundant or non-redundant lift system.The installation procedures will preclude moving a rack over a previously installed rack.Racks will be lifted in the vicinity of the spent fuel pool using single-failure proof crane and lifting attachments.

This will preclude rack drop analysis.However, the analysis is performed to verify structural strength of the design to withstand rack drops.If a rack drops to the floor, the maximum total force would be limited to the crush strength of the racks.The crush strength of racks is provided in this section.During rack drops, most of the energy will be absorbed in the crushing of racks.Therefore, rack buckling and crush strength are calculated first..Euler Buckling of Structural Tube Between Connection Tab Plates Earlier calculation for Euler's buckling of the structural tubes has shown that for all three type racks, the 0is much more higher than the o.Therefore, the tubes will not buckle as a beam in the elastic range.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 310 Overall Rack Buckling E I m A L)Where L,=effective length for buckling, 2x height of racks=2 x 158.5=317 inch A=cross section area of structural members in a rack I=cross section moment of inertia of rack structural members E=Young's Modulus=27.9 x 10'b/in'or 304L SS at 150'F (Note: Lowest of East-West or North-South properties are taken)RACK XKl~e 2A 2B 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 4 A Ln 2 113.9 129.5 92.7 82.1 66.2 66.2 84.8 25.9 lnorthsouth 4 43,791 64,009 32,726 25,998 12,079 12,079 26,008 292 1,054 1,354 967 868 500 500 840 31 All of these oare higher than the otherefore, racks will not buckle in beam mode in elastic range.Local Plate Buckling Crush strength of each rack is based upon the effective area, reduced for buckling times the compressiveyield.

The shallow drop was examined and it was found that with ductility factor less than 20 and deformation less than one inch, the distortion of the cells would be confined to the portion of cells above the borated stainless steel, and hence, not affect the K factor used in the criticality analysis.The conservatism used in the mechanical accident analyses for various drops indicate that, minor distortion of the rack is limited in the vicinity of the impact area.There is no gross deformation of the rack away Rom the impact area.Individual hypothetical accident cases are summarized below.I Fuel Assembly-Straight Deep Drop The kinetic energy of the falling fuel assembly is such that it can be expected that the bottom plate of the racks will be separated Rom the bottom of the cells due to failure of the welds (bottom plate to cell).The bottom plate would be supported by the support legs, located nominally at 37" on center for Type 2 and Type 3 racks.It is found that the bottom plate would yield and deform, deflecting about 2.12" with the fuel assembly impacting at the midpoint between support legs.For Type 4 racks, the bottom plate would yield and deform, deflecting about 1.82" with fuel assembly impacting, approximately, at the midpoint between support legs.Therefore, it is concluded that this would not result in any distress to the spent fuel pool floor.Fuel Assembly-Straight Deep Drop onto Support Leg For this case the inelastic strain energy is confined to the M80x6 threaded portion of the support leg.The maximum load imparted to the spent fuel pool floor is limited to ultimate strength of the threaded portion of the leg and is 405.7 kips.Due to limited mechanism for inelastic energy absorption, the support leg female threads will fail.The load imparted to the floor will pass through the stainless steel liner.The stresses in the reinforced concrete floor are calculated using Boussinesq's solution (Reference 3.35).The indications are that, at distance below the support pad equal to the diameter of the support pad (6.6929"), the stresses are below allowable stresses.The concrete directly under the support pad is a local condition with three-dimensional confinement and, therefore, will not be damaged by the impact load.The maximum deformation of the bottom plate will be 1.42 inches (36 mm)after female threads are stripped.Fuel Assembly-Shallow Drops For this case it was assumed that the fuel assembly is dropped vertically onto the top of the rack.After initially striking the top of the rack, the fuel assembly and handling gear rotates and falls flat on top of the racks.The total kinetic energy delivered to the top of the racks is little diminished due to the initial strike.This is due to the fact that the linear kinetic energy is converted to the rotational kinetic energy by means of a couple equal to the weight and inertial force of the fuel rod times the horizontal component of the distance between the center of gravity of the falling fuel assembly and the point of initial strike upon the top of the racks.The results of the analysis indicate that distortion of cells will be limited to the portion of the cells above the top of the borated stainless steel.The ductility factor is less than 20 for both shallow drops and the maximum deformation of the top of the rack is 0.14 inches.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 315 The results of the analysis indicate that distortion of the cells will be limited to the portion of the cells above the top of the borated stainless steel.~c~de 1 Inelastic Strain ShLdÃK Ductility~Fact r Total Deformation

The wooden pole missile is dropped on top of the racks.Considering the impact energy and the footprint of the impact among vertical and horizontal impact, the vertical impact causes the highest deformation and highest ductility factor for the racks.The results indicate that the distortion of the cell will be limited to the footprint area and adjacent fuel cells.The deformation of the top of the impacted fuel cell will be 2.05 inches and ductility factor of structural tubes will be limited to 15.6.Gate Drop, Rack Drop and Cask Drop The consolidated fuel, pool canal gate, storage racks and the spent fuel shipping cask are considered heavy loads per NUREG-0612.

There will be administrative control for movement of these hardware in the spent fuel pool area.Also they will be lifted using a single-failure proof crane and a single-failure proof lifting system.Handling of these hardware in the spent fuel pool area will be performed in accordance with the guidelines of NUREG-0612 with regard to limiting the chance of unacceptable heavy load drop.Reference 3.23, NRC Staff safety evaluation report provides exclusion of heavy load drops meeting these criteria.3.5.3.2.9 Loss of Spent Fuel Pool Cooling Differential Temperature Induced Loads-Abnormal Condition (T,)This thermal condition is produced when the pool water bulk temperature increases due to loss of artificial cooling.The pool liner temperature is kept the same as the normal operating temperature to generate conservative stresses in the rack.The most conservative analysis of the rack would then be to assume that the bottoms of the legs of the rack remain in their original positions and that the uniform temperature of the rack itself has reached to accident condition temperature.

The maximum loading would thus be caused by the constraint at the bottoms of the legs and the uniform thermal growth in the rack.Section 3.5.3.1.10 presents the analysis and results of the rack thermal analysis under abnormal condition (Tg.The results indicate adequate margin exists in the storage racks to accommodate differential temperature induced load due to loss of artificial cooling.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 316 3.5.3.3 Tabulation of Results Table 3.5-141 Results of Support Leg Stresses 4;.',;::.,'-:-::-::,.:::;:,':.:::;::lCombinatioii's':,:.';:;.-',,;i!:;:;:"::::::,Oil':,":'-:!

The associated inter-rack connections and welding provide the necessary strength and stiflness to accommodate all of the rack loading conditions.

In addition, a large number of support legs provide for a wide distribution of force and reactions and adequate structural margins.The various loadings and resulting consequences were examined in detail by means of nonlinear dynamic analysis.One of the major loading effects is the impact of fuel assemblies against the cell walls.While the impact effect is of very short duration, it enhances the potential for sliding and tipping.Consequential impact effects were analyzed;namely the impact of support legs upon the spent fuel pool floor during tipping.Given the evaluated seismic events, the changes in the final position of the racks are small as compared to the initial position prior to the seismic event.The effect of tipping is such that no net change of position results.The only changes in position result&om sliding;however, the results of the 3D whole pool multi-rack analyses and the 3D single rack model studies indicate little net change in the gaps between racks.The maximum closure of gaps is such that no significant changes in the gaps result during any single seismic event.Furthermore, the combined gap closures resulting from a combination of 5 OBE's and 1 SSE show that there are no rack-to-rack or rack-to-wall impacts.The conservatisms inherent in the criteria and methodology indicate that the racks have sufficiently large margins as shown by comparisons of calculated and allowable stresses.Detailed results are found in sections 3.5.3.1 and 3.5.3.2, which provide the results of the normal condition and accident condition evaluations respectively.

Section 3.5.3.3 provides a tabulation of all results.3.5.3.5 Conclusion It is shown that the spent fuel storage system structures at RG&E's R.E.Ginna Unit 1 are robust and that they provide safe storage of spent fuel under any of the normal, upset or hypothetical accident conditions.

The design and supporting analyses of the high density free standing storage racks indicate that the spent fuel and the consolidated fuel canister can be stored safely in the new ATEA designed racks.During the seismic events, impacts will occur on the racks due to the impacts of the fuel assemblies or canisters as well as the impacts of the rack legs on the floor during tipping.The analyses show during OBE or SSE seismic events, there are no rack-to-rack or rack-to-wall impacts.The racks themselves are very rigid structures, capable of resisting large loads.The fact that the racks are&ee to slide has two significant effects;1)the lateral forces are thereby limited, and 2)the sliding dissipates energy.The tipping of the racks is limited by the restoring moment due to the weight of the rack, the fuel, and the contained water.The hydrodynamic coupling is also a restorative force.The effect of the water coupling is also an energy dissipator.

The hydrodynamic 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Licensing Re-rack Report Page 323 V

pressures develop in order to force water&om a closing gap.The vibratory nature of seismic events, while resulting in amplified loading, also results in rapid load reversals.

The free standing characteristics of the racks and the hy'drodynamic coupling are very effective in responding to the rapid load reversals.

Stresses in the new ATEA racks and in the existing U.S.Tool&Die racks, pool liner and spent fuel pool are below allowable.

The deformations of this hardware are within allowable limits.Also, the results show the ruggedness of the spent fuel rack design.The structural evaluation presented here shows that the RGkE's Ginna Unit 1 spent fuel storage system meets all applicable structural criteria to maintain a subcritical array for the spent fuel and keep radiation exposure within federal limits.The analysis of the spent fuel storage system demonstrates that the structure satisfies the requirements of Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations.

Results of the analysis show the design satisfies the statutory requirements for licensing.

3.5.3.6 Anticipated Impact on Operations of R.E.Ginna Nuclear Plant The racks are structurally designed to provide storage for spent fuel assemblies or consolidated fuel canisters without restriction.

Both spent fuel or consolidated fuel canisters can be safely stored in any of the racks without restrictions.

The high density spent fuel storage racks are&ee standing;hence&ee to slide or tip without rack to rack impacts under seismic events.Both the old and new racks do not impact the walls of the spent fuel pool under any of the normal, abnormal and faulted conditions.

These conditions include seismic OBE and SSE conditions.

During seismic events, loads from the rack supports onto the spent fuel storage pool fioor are within the allowable concrete bearing stresses.The liner itself will not be subject to any significant loads due to any sliding of the racks.Under the hypothetical accident drop of a fuel assembly or tornado missile impact, minor distortion of the racks will occur.These rack distortions are limited to the foot print area of the impact and fuel cell in the vicinity of the impact area.There will be no gross distortions of the racks or any adverse effects upon the plant structures or equipment.

For the consolidated fuel canister, pool canal gate and spent fuel shipping cask, administrative procedures will require liAing this hardware using NUREG-0612, single failure proof crane and single failure proof lifting and rigging system.Also, during the removal of the old racks and during the installation of the new racks, that movement over the spent fuel pool shall be performed using single failure proof lift system.In summary, the functioning of the racks under the specified loading, or events, will have no detrimental consequences to the spent fuel pool or plant operation.

4.0 CRITICALITY

EVALUATION

4.1 INTRODUCTION

Two regions comprise the spent fuel storage racks for the R.E.Ginna Nuclear Power Station.Region 1 maintains a maximum k,~~s 0.95 for fresh fuel with nominal enrichments up to 5.0 wt%~'U.This is accomplished by a combination of absorber flux Mps, a checkerboard of fresh and highly burned assemblies, and Integrated Fuel Burnable Absorber (IFBA)credit for&esh assemblies

.with nominal enrichments above 4.0 wt%~'U.Region 2 maintains the 0.95 criticality criterion by using fixed absorber plates and burnup credit.This region accommodates nominal initial enrichments up to 5.0 wt%~'U, with an associated minimum burnup of 47.25 GWd/mtU.Loading curves relating the required burnup to the initial enrichment of the spent fuel assemblies govern placement of spent fuel into either region.The KENO V.a Monte Carlo program determines K for both Region 1 and 2 using storage rack models with unborated water at nominal pool temperatures.

K includes the sum of the KENO V.a calculated k,ir, the KENO V.a bias, penalties related to fabrication tolerance uncertainties, and statistically combined uncertainties related to these parameters.

This sum ensures that K will be less than or equal to 0.95 with a 95%probability at a 95%confidence level.Evaluations of the reactivity effects of abnormal and accident conditions ensure that these conditions also satisfy this criticality criterion under the double continency principle.

The criticality safety analyses for the Ginna Unit 1 storage racks conform to applicable codes and standards""'.The results of the analyses show that the combination of fixed absorbers and burnup credit inherent in the designs enables both the Region 1 and Region 2 racks to satisfy the criticality safety criterion, i.e., K s 0.95.A summary of the burnup requirements for loading fuel in either region is provided below.The limiting accident condition is a misplaced assembly in Region 2.The criticality criterion is satisfied for this, and any other abnormal event by a minimum soluble boron concentration in the storage pool coolant of 450 ppm during fuel movement.4.1.1 Region 1 Normal Condition A borated stainless steel rack, Type 3, comprises Region 1.This region accommodates fuel with initial enrichments up to 4.0 wt%~'U (nominal)for either fresh fuel without IFBA or up to 5.0 wt%~'U (nominal)with appropriate IFBA loadings.Fresh assemblies must be stored in a checkerboard arrangement so that&esh fuel is not directly adjacent to other fresh fuel.The positions adjacent to the fresh fuel, i.e., with flat surfaces facing each other, must be filled with fuel with a burnup appropriate to its initial enrichment, or left empty.The relationship between the burnup and initial enrichment is defined by a burnup versus enrichment, or loading, curve.There is a further physical restriction on fuel assembly loading in Region 1 in addition to the loading curve due to the rack design.As described in Section 1.3.1, lead-in funnels are provided for the cells that accept fresh fuel assemblies.

The cells without a funnel may only contain spent fuel.Figure 4.1-1 illustrates the burnup versus initial enrichment loading curve for spent fuel in Region 1.Figure 4.1-3 illustrates allowable loading arrangements for&esh fuel assemblies and spent fuel assemblies with enrichments and burnups in areas A and B of Figure 4.1-1.The burnup requirements, including a 5%burnup'measurement'ncertainty, are tabulated in Table 4.1-1.Table 4.1-3 lists the calculated k,ff values 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 328

from the KENO V.a calculation and K which includes all biases and uncertainties for Region 1 for normal conditions.

These results are based upon a&esh Westinghouse Optimized Fuel Assembly (OFA)stored adjacent to a Westinghouse Standard assembly.The Westinghouse OFA assembly is most reactive for&esh fuel while the Westinghouse Standard assembly is most reactive for burned fuel satisfying the loading curve for Region 1.Consolidated fuel canisters are also bounded by these assemblies and thus must conform to the same loading curve.4.1.2 Region 2 Normal Condition The tight pitch of the Region 2 cells requires burnup credit and fixed absorbers to satisfy the'riticality criterion.

Three rack cell configurations comprise Region 2 (see Figure 4.3-1).Type 1 cells are the Boraflex cells that form Region 2 for the existing license.Two racks of Type 2 cells, containing borated stainless steel (BSS)absorber plates, have been added to increase the capacity of Region 2.The capacity can be increased in the future by the addition of Type 4 racks on the north and south faces of the Type 1 rack configuration, (see Figure 4.3-1).This type also contains BSS absorber plates.Figure 4.1-2 shows the burnup versus initial enrichment curves for Region 2, as well as the inventory of fuel as of 06/09/96 in the Ginna storage pool.Figure 4.1-4 illustrates allowable loading arrangements for assemblies with enrichments and burnups in areas A,, AB, and C of Figure 4.1-2.Table 4.1-2 lists the required burnup values.The central, solid curve is the base curve for storage in Region 2 for all type racks.It is based upon the requirements of the Boraflex rack, Type 1, with an assumed amount of Boraflex degradation/shrinkage.

While no significant degradation has been shown, or anticipated, in the Ginna Boraflex racks, a significant margin has been included in this analysis to mitigate effects&om possible degradation/shrinkage in the future.Figure 4.1-2 illustrates that the majority of the fuel currently stored in Region 2 falls above the curve.The dashed upper and lower curves prescribe a checker board pattern of loading burned fuel to accommodate those assemblies that fall below the base curve.Assemblies with burnups above the base curve, A1 and A2 may be placed directly adjacent to each other, i.e., flat surfaces facing each other.Assemblies below the curve in area B shall only be placed adjacent to assemblies

&om area Al, or a water hole.They shall not be directly adjacent to each other.Assemblies in area C shall be stored either adjacent to water holes or in Region 1.For a nominal 5.0 wt%"'U assembly, the base line requires a minimum burnup of 47.25 GWd/mtU.This includes a 5%uncertainty associated with the measurement of the assembly burnup.Table 4.1-4 lists KENO V.a calculated reactivity values for Region 2 normal conditions.

These results are for a Westinghouse 14x14 Standard fuel assembly design.This fuel type bounds the other assembly designs at Ginna with acceptable burnups for storage in Region 2.Consolidated containers are also bounded by this design and may be stored in Region 2 governed by the loading curve.4.1.3 Abnormal Conditions The analysis evaluates the abnormal and accident conditions listed below.These conditions are subject to the Double Contingency Principle46 which allows consideration of the soluble boron in the pool water.Allowance for soluble boron mitigates any reactivity increase and allows the storage rack to satisfy the criticality criterion.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 329 "1~~

Abnormal or accident conditions consider several dropped assembly scenarios, misloading an assembly, and seismically induced conditions, Dropped assembly accidents include an assembly dropped on top of the rack (T-bone or shallow drop), outside the rack (side drop), and through a rack cell (deep drop).The misloading accident, i.e., storage of a fuel assembly in violation of the administrative controls, is bounded by assuming the misloaded assembly is fresh with an enrichment of 4 wt%"'U.The bounding accident for Regions 1 and 2 is a misloaded assembly in the Boraflex rack of Region 2.The b,k for this accident is about 0.05.Assuming a soluble boron concentration of 450 ppm in the pool water provides sufficient margin to mitigate any reactivity increases from this, or other, credible accidents.

ANSUANS-57.2", Section 6.4.2.1.3, lists the credible abnormal occurrences that must be considered for criticality safety analyses.Those listed above reflect the credible accident for the Ginna storage pool, i.e., shallow drop, deep drop, side drop, misloaded assembly, and horizontal movement of racks due to seismic events.The following occurrences specified in ANSI/ANS-57.2 were not considered:

1.Tipping of the storage rack was not analyzed because the Ginna storage rack fits tightly into the pool.2.A stuck fuel assembly with a crane providing an uplifting force is construed to mean that the assembly hangs up due to contact between the assembly and the rack structural material.The structural analysis of this event indicates no damage to the racks (Section 3.5.3.1.18).

Thus, there is no impact on criticality safety.The only significant objects that could fall into or on the spent fuel rack other than a fuel assembly is the spent fuel handling bridge and the pool gate.The spent fuel handling bridge is restrained to Seismic Class I rails by Seismic Class I restraints to prevent it from jumping the tracks in the event of an earthquake.

Seismic Class I anchors retain the winch mechanism on the fuel handling bridge floor.Redundancy is provided on the gate lifting mechanism to preclude a gate drop accident.Thus, there is no impact on criticality safety.No rotating equipment is in the vicinity of the spent fuel pool.Thus, missiles generated by the failure of rotating machinery are not pertinent.

Natural phenomena, i.e., a tornado missile, has been analyzed (Section 3.5.3.2.4).

There is minimal damage to the top of the storage racks.However, fuel within the rack may be damaged.This damage may cause radiological releases and bowing in the fuel.However, the damage will not have a significant impact on the criticality safety of the storage racks.4.2 ANALYTICAL METHODS This section describes the methods used to ensure the criticality safety of the Ginna storage racks.The base analysis methodology employs the SCALE 4.2 code system" with KENO V.a.CASMO-3" supplements SCALE 4.2 for evaluation of tolerance effects and generation of spent fuel isotopics.

These methods provide the basis for generating the burnup versus enrichment curves that govern loading of fuel into the storage racks.Integrated into the Region 2 curves is the consideration of Boraflex degradation in rack Type 1.A brief discussion of these items involved in generating the loading curve is provided in this section.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 330

4.2.1 Criticality

Analysis Methodology The KENO V.a Monte Carlo progmm calculates the absolute reactivities for the various storage rack configurations.

All analyses use the revised 44 group cross section set 4'.This cross section set is processed by the CSh.S routines of SCALE 4.2.This system of codes has been verified with extensive in-house benchmarks against critical configurations directly applicable to spent fuel storage pool storage analyses.The benchmark cases have been chosen to demonstrate the applicability of the SCALE 4.2 system'ith the 44 group cross section library to spent fuel storage rack analyses.A series of 37 critical configurations closely modeling storage rack configurations have been analyzed.These experiments span a range of fuel enrichments, assembly/pin spacings, and materials interspersed between the fuel arrays applicable to the Boraflex and BSS racks evaluated in this analysis.Additionally, twelve mixed-oxide critical configurations have been examined to verify calculations for burnup credit, i.e., inclusion of plutonium effects.A description of the benchmark cases and a complete discussion of results is provided in Section 4.4.1.The results from the benchmark calculations indicated no discernable trend relative to enrichment, pin pitch, fuel rod size, or fuel composition.

However, they do suggest a trend of increasing bias as a function of the spacing between the edges of the fuel arrays.This is further influenced by the materials inserted into the space between the edges.The Region 1 racks have a spacing of about 3.7 cm (1.45")between the edges of fuel assemblies centered in the rack cells.The KENO V.a bias that corresponds to this spacing, including BSS and SS absorber plate effects, is-0.0070+0.0009 b,k.The edge-to-edge spacing between fuel assemblies in Region 2 is about 1.64 cm (0.646").The KENO V.a bias associated with this spacing is 0.0056+0.0009 hk.As noted in Section 4.4.1, independent benchmark calculations presented in the International Handbook of Evaluated Criticality Safety Benchmark verify this trend for typical assembly edge-to-edge spacings for tight lattice storage racks.4.2.2 Tolerance Evaluation/Burnup Isotopic Generation with CASMO-3 The analysis considers nominal dimensions for modeling both the storage racks and the fuel assemblies.

To ensure a margin of safety, the reactivity effects caused by potential variations from the nominal and/or conditions assumed in the analysis must be factored into the analysis.The CASMO-3 program determines tolerance and moderator temperature effects, as well as, burnup'sotopics.

CASMO-3 is a multi group two-dimensional transport theory program developed for burnup calculations on Light Water Reactor (LWR)fuel assemblies or simple pin cells.The code handles a geometry consisting of cylindrical fuel rods of varying composition in an infinite square pitch array.This capability allows the evaluation of fuel assembly type differences, fuel assembly fabrication tolerances, e.g., enrichment, pellet diameters, etc., and rod consolidation effects.Typical fuel-storage-rack modeling capabilities allow evaluation of rack fabrication tolerances and moderator temperature effects in the storage pool.In addition to its use for sensitivity studies, CASMO-3 provides depletion data for burnup credit evaluations.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 331 The application of burnup credit uses reactivity equivalence of fuel assemblies defined in an initial enrichment versus burnup curve.This allows a tighter pitch for storage of fuel assemblies without restrictive limits on enrichment.

An alternative application of reactivity equivalencing is the determination of a curve relating initial enrichment versus the number of IFBA rods for an assembly.For the Ginna storage racks such a curve is defined for fuel with nominal initial enrichments above 4.0 wt%.Similar to the burnup versus enrichment curve, an assembly IFBA rod versus enrichment curve provides equivalency with an unrodded assembly.CASMO-3 is used to generate this curve for the optimal burnup point for IFBA assemblies to be stored in the Ginna storage racks.4.2.3 Burnup Credit Methodology Typically, a burnup credit analysis applies a uniform, average burnup distribution over the entire length of the assembly.However, a uniform distribution may underestimate the burnup at the center of the assembly while overestimating the burnup at the top and bottom.To adequately utilize burnup credit, an estimate of the reactivity effects of the axial burnup distribution relative to a uniform distribution must be determined and appropriately applied to the results.Alternatively, the explicit axial distribution can be modeled in the KENO V.a calculation to remove the need for application of an axial burnup penalty.This analysis uses the latter method and is based upon a best estimate of axial burnup shapes and fueVmoderator temperatures for the Ginna plant.The Ginna spent fuel racks contains three primary types of 14x14 fuel assemblies:

the Westinghouse Standard, the Exxon Standard, and the Westinghouse OFA assemblies.

The latter generally have axial blankets (currently ranging from natural to about 2.6 wt%~'U)and varying numbers of IFBA rods.The older, Standard assemblies contained neither axial blankets nor IFBA rods.Analytical axial burnup profiles were obtained&om RGE for several OFA and Standard assemblies for various enrichment and burnup ranges.From these shapes, best estimates for the burnup profiles for burnup ranges from 10 to 20, 20 to 30, 30 to 40, and 40 to 50 GWd/mtU were chosen.The 23-node analytical profiles were reduced to seven axial zones: the burnup for the three upper and three lower zones are to top and bottom three nodal points while the central zone represents an average of the 17 central nodal points of the analytical profile.Such a seven zone model has been shown to be a reasonable approximation to more axial nodes'".For each burnup range the seven zone distribution is normalized to 1 to enable generation of an axial shape for an average burnup by a simple multiplicative process.CASMO-3 generates the isotopic concentrations for each segment of the axial profile.The segment concentrations are influenced by the axial fuel and moderator temperature distributions that effect the plutonium buildup occurring during depletion.

A higher moderator temperature causes spectral"hardening" (a shift of the neutron energy spectrum to higher energy values)which increases conversion of'Pu&om~'U.Additionally, higher fuel temperatures cause Doppler broadening of the'U resonance structure, also increasing

~Pu production.

Typical core average axial moderator and fuel temperature profiles were obtained&om RGE and used in the CASMO-3 depletions for the generation of isotopics for KENO V.a.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 332 To reduce the amount of data transfer between CASMO-3 and KENO V.a, only selected actinide isotopes ('U n'U mU mPu~Pu"Pu)'and equilibrium'" Sm (xenon and iodine are eliminated in both rack models)at shutdown (no decay considered) are explicitly considered in the analysis.The other isotopes are represented by an equivalent

'B concentration.

CASMO-3 is used to determine the equivalency.

Section 4.4.2 provides an additional description of the methodology and lists the isotopic concentrations for the base calculations.

The ability of CASMO-3 to predict isotopics has been illustrated by a comparison between CASMO-3 predicted and the measured isotopic values for the YANKEE ROWE Power Plant Cores I, II, and IV3.Ahe ratio of U,+U,~U,~Pu Pu Pu, and Pu to the initial~U concentra-tion was compared for the measured and CASMO-3 predicted results.The CASMO-3 predictions were shown to be well within the statistical variations of the measured values.No obser ved bias is seen for any isotope except'Pu with CASMO-3 consistently under predicting the measured values by about 9%.Since"'Pu is not an important contributor to k, this effect is negligible for this analysis.Based on these results, it is concluded that the uncertainty of CASMO-3 predicted isotopics is bounded by the conservative methodology and the application of a 5.0%burnup uncertainty.

4.2.4 Boraflex

Degradation/Shrinkage Methodology Recent industry-wide blackness testing of Borafiex panels at other reactor storage sites has indicated shrinkage and gap formation in the Boraflex absorber sheets.'Additional industry experience with the material has shown degradation, i.e., loss of the polymer material, in the sheets.The effects of both the degradation and the shrinkage of Boraflex in the Type 1 racks of Region 2 are evaluated and factored into the generation of the loading curves for Region 2.The previous licensing report for Region 2 of the Ginna racks'" evaluated the effects of a 4%shrinkage and a 4" gap.This was considered a conservative assumption supported by generic studies for rack geometries'".

Recent blackness testing at other storage pools has indicated gaps ranging from 9" to 12" in length.Other loss of Boraflex into the spent fuel pool has also been postulated recently.The following assumptions and methodologies are used to evaluate the effects of both of these loss mechanisms on the reactivity of the storage racks: Based upon the most recent indication of a 12" gap, an equivalent shrinkage, 8.3%based upon a 144" Boraflex plate, or gap is assumed.For the shrinkage evaluation, it is assumed that the shrinkage is uniform over the length and width of the plate.Thus an equal gap forms at the top and bottom, and at either side of the plate, i.e., 4.15%of the dimension at each edge.No density change is made to the remaining absorber material to reflect the shrinkage.

KENO V.a evaluates the shrinkage reactivity effects.2.The gap evaluation examined a single 12" gap over the length of the plate with an 8.3%shrinkage over the width.The model assumes that the location of the gap is randomly distributed on each plate of the cell.To provide a reasonable model, an array of 16 rack cells is modeled with each of the 32 absorber plates (2 plates per cell)randomly assigned a 12" gap.Appropriate boundary conditions provide an infinite array of this rack.The model assumes a 144" fuel zone with a 144" absorber plate.However, for additional conservatism, the gaps are limited to the central 132 inches of the cells to simulate the most reactive region when axial reflector fuel is used.Water replaces the absorber material in the gap with no 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 333 when axial reflector fuel is used.Water replaces the absorber material in the gap with no density modification of the remaining absorber material.The evaluation uses KENO V.a to assess gapping reactivity effects.A detailed CASMO-3 model of the Boraflex rack evaluates the reactivity effects of the potential degradation of the absorber material.This degradation model reduces the thickness of the absorber material in the cell.The evaluation examines various degraded configurations to provide a bounding assessment of the effect.These configurations include replacement of the absorber with water, reduction of the density of the absorber material by.the assumed boron loss, and a homogeneous mixture of degraded absorber and water in the absorber region.An evaluation of the required boron concentration in the pool water to compensate for varying amounts of degradation is also provided.No significant degradation and/or shrinkage is anticipated in the Ginna racks.Indeed, fuel loading practices for Region 2 at Ginna"" should reduce damage to the absorber material.However to address any potential absorber loss, the generation of the loading curve for Region 2 for Rack Type 1 includes allowances for Boraflex degradations.

A sixteen cell infinite KENO V.a model with both a 12" gap, including 8.3%shrinkage on the width, and reduction of the absorber thickness by 50%provides the geometrical basis for the allowances.

Thus, a conservative margin is provided to accommodate a combination of potential gapping and degradation beyond that currently experienced in the industry.This is well beyond that expected for the Ginna storage rack.4.3 CRITICALITY ANALYSES The spent fuel racks are divided into two administratively controlled regions (see Figure 4.3-1).Region 1 is designed to accommodate a full core off-load of assemblies.

Thus, it must be able to store assemblies ranging from zero to very high burnups.This region comprises 5 modular racks of a borated stainless steel rack design designated as rack Type 3.Rack Type 3 combines a flux trap with a checkerboard pattern of&esh and burned fuel to insure criticality safety.Region 2 provides the bulk of the storage for burned fuel assemblies.

It consists of three rack types: Type 1 is the Boraflex design currently licensed;Type 2 is a&ee standing, BSS absorber plate rack design;Type 4, also a BSS design, is a single row design that may be attached to the north and south faces of the Boraflex rack region for additional storage in the future.Section 1.3 provides a description of the new rack types to be placed in the Ginna storage pool.Figure 1.1-1 illustrates the general arrangement of rack types in the pool.Section 4.3.1 describes the base input parameters for all the analyses.Section 4.3.2 describes the evaluation of the reactivity effects due to manufacturing tolerances for the rack and fuel assemblies, as well as uncertainties related to storage of fuel in the racks, i.e., fuel assembly type, fuel assembly position, boraflex degradation/shrinkage, and coolant temperature effect.Sections 4.3.3 and 4.3.4 discuss the analysis for normal conditions for Regions 1 and 2.This is followed by a discussion of the evaluation of the interface effects between rack types in Section 4.3.5.Section 4.3.6 describes the accident condition evaluation.

The results of these analyses are discussed in Sections 4.3.7.Section 4.3.8 discusses storage of consolidated fuel containers in the storage racks.Finally, Section 4.3.9 relates the results of the analyses to the acceptance criteria for criticality safety.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 334

4.3.1 Input

Parameters This section lists the input parameters used in the analysis of the storage racks.This includes fuel assembly dimensions, rack dimensions, and material specifications.

4.3.1.1 Fuel Assembly Description Three basic fuel assemblies are stored in the Ginna spent fuel storage racks: Westinghouse Standard assemblies, Exxon Standard assemblies, and Westinghouse OFA assemblies.

Table 4.3-1 shows the significant specifications and dimensions for these assemblies.

No dimensions are provided for intermediate spacer grids and end fittings since these items are not modeled in the CASMO-3 or'ENO V.a calculations.

The criticality analysis uses the nominal dimensions of the fuel assembly components to determine k,a, Tolerances are evaluated and included in the determination of K that is compared to the 0.95 criticality safety criterion.

In addition to an intact fuel assembly, the reactivity of consolidation containers containing fuel rods from up to two assemblies is evaluated.

Table 4.3-2 provides information on the structure of the consolidated containers.

4.3.1.2 Spent Fuel Storage Rack Dimensions A sketch of the Ginna storage rack is provided in Figure 4.3-1.This shows the arrangements of the various rack types to form Regions 1 and 2.Region 1 consists of five modules, or racks, of rack Type 3.Rack 3E contains five cells with the cell internal dimension enlarged to accommodate severely bowed or damaged fuel assemblies.

Tables 4.3-3a and 4.3-3b provide the dimensions significant to the criticality analysis.As illustrated in Figure 4.3-1, Region 2 initially will be formed with rack Type 1, the existing Boraflex racks, and Type 2 racks 2A and 2B.Analysis is also provided for peripheral racks, Type 4, that may be added to the north and south faces of rack Type 1 (see Figure 4.3-1).Type 4 racks will be added if additional storage is required in the future.The significant dimensions for these rack types are provided in Tables 4.3-4 through 4.3-6.These tables form the bases for the analytical models described in a later section.Nominal values are used primarily in the evaluation of k,ii and the effects of tolerances are included to determine K 4.3.1.3 Material Specifications Tables 4.3-7 and 4.3-8 provide the region material compositions and number densities used in the models.The first table lists the non-fuel materials.

The second table provides the fuel number densities for the analyzed fresh fuel enrichments and the burnup isotopics for fuel with an initial enrichment of 5 wt%~'U burned to 45 GWd/mtU, the upper point for the burnup versus enrichment curves.Section 4.4.2 contains the isotopic number densities for other initial enrichments and limiting burnups used in the analysis.4.3.2 Tolerance/Uncertainty Evaluation The fuel rack tolerance results are described in Section 4.3.2.1.Section 4.3.2.2 describes penalties associated with off-center fuel placement while an evaluation of the coolant temperature effect on rack reactivity is provided in Section 4.3.2.3.Tolerance penalties associated with the fuel assembly design, enrichment, and theoretical density are described in Section 4.3.2.4.Section 4.3.2.5 discusses 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 335 0 l the reactivity differences among the three fuel assembly types.A summary of the tolerances, uncertainties, and biases applied to the KENO V.a results is provided in Section 4.3.2.6.Table 4.3-12 summarizes the tolerance, uncertainty, and bias values from this evaluation.

Additionally, the KENO V.a bias, discussed in Section 4.4.1, is included in this table for completeness.

4.3.2.1 Fuel Rack Tolerance Analysis Methodology The tolerance penalties associated with the different rack designs are obtained with the CASMO-3 computer code.Rack Types 2, 3, and, specifically, the cells for damaged fuel assemblies in rack 3E are evaluated using a model of 4 rack cells in CASMO-3.Periodic boundary conditions are used to'rovide an infinite rack model.These models closely approximate the rack configurations sketched in Figures 4.3-2 and 4.3-6.Such models are necessary to evaluate the alternating cell types in these.Rack Type 1 is modeled as an infinite array of Borafiex cells (Figure 4.3-5).The Type 4 rack evaluation diverges from that of the others.Since it is only one cell wide, it is modeled as infinite in one direction.

Due to the large water gaps between the Type 4 racks, the pool wall, and the Type 1 racks (Figure 4.3-1), geometry limitations in CASMO-3 preclude either including the Type 1 racks or the pool wall in the model.However, since the primary contribution to the tolerance penalty, as observed for the other rack types, is the water gap between the Type 4 cells, modeling only the Type 4 rack is sufficient and provides a relatively small tolerance penalty.The bounding tolerances for each rack type are listed in Table 4.3-12.Note that the damaged cells of rack 3E (Figure 4.3-4)will be not be distinguished from the other Type 3 cells since they are more limiting and only a limited number of Type 3E cells are placed along the outer edge rack 3E.4.3.2.2 Off-Center Fuel Assembly Analysis The off-'center study evaluates the reactivity effects of fuel assembly movement within the rack cell by placing assemblies in a corner of the cell.This results in an uneven distribution of water between the outer edge of the assembly and the can and places assemblies closer together which may increase reactivity.

Due to limitations in CASMO-3, the assemblies can only be arranged in groups of four (except for rack Type 4).Larger off-'center groupings require the use of KENO V.a for evaluation.

Based on previous calculations with KENO V.a and CASMO-3 the reactivity effect&om off-center assembly spacing is not significant.

This is illustrated in the listing the off-'center penalty for each rack type in Table 4.3-12.4.3.2.3 Storage Pool Coolant Temperature Effects The rack analyses were performed for a nominal pool temperature of 68'F (293'K).An evaluation of the reactivity changes associated with temperature variations around this nominal value was performed with CASMO-3.The evaluation examined the temperature range from 50 to 212'F to cover both credible'cooldown'nd

'heatup'vents in the spent fuel pool.The reactivity increases from about 0.001 to 0.002 hk as the temperature is lowered from 68'F to 50'F, depending upon rack type, see Table 4.3-12.For all rack types the reactivity decreases as the pool temperature is raised.For this evaluation, pool temperature decreases to about 50'F are considered credible so a penalty is taken only for the b,k increase from 68 to 50'F.Pool temperatures below 50'F are not considered credible and represent an accident condition covered by the double contingency principle.

For temperatures below 50'F, the reactivity change is less than+0.0002 LHc for any rack type.Such small reactivity changes are easily covered by the effect of the 450 ppm minimum boron concentration in the pool water.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 336 4.3.2.4 Fuel Assembly Mechanical Tolerances This section addresses the reactivity effects due to manufacturing tolerances on the various dimensions of the 14x14 pin fuel assembly types.The major assembly types are the Exxon Standard, the Westinghouse Standard, and the Westinghouse OFA fuel assembly.The variables examined are dimensional changes of the fuel pellet diameter, the pellet cladding ID and OD, the guide tube and instrument tube ID and OD values, the fuel theoretical density, and the enrichment.

These penalties are determined with the CASMO-3 code.Bounding penalties are obtained for assembly component parts by varying the component dimension over the allowable tolerance range.The statistically combined tolerance penalty for the fuel pellet, guide tube, instrument tube, and fuel cladding is.reported for convenience for each assembly.The fuel pellet enrichment and theoretical density penalties reported separately to illustrate that the enrichments reported for the loading requirements are indeed nominal values.Table 4.3-9 provides a listing of the fuel assembly tolerance penalties.

The Exxon assembly is seen to have the largest tolerance penalty for both manufacturing and enrichment variations while the Westinghouse OFA assembly shows the largest penalty related to the variation in theoretical density.A statistical combination of the individual results shows that the Exxon assembly penalty bounds the other assemblies.

Thus, the penalty for this assembly is used in the determination of K and incorporated into the summary Table 4.3-12 4.3.2.5 Most Reactive Fuel Type Three basic types of intact fuel plus twelve lead test assemblies are stored in the Ginna rack.In addition to the intact assemblies, there are several consolidated fuel containers currently in the rack.Thus, the evaluation of the reactivity of different fuel types logically is divided into two areas: intact fuel and consolidated fuel.The evaluation of these fuel types is discussed in this section.4.3.2.5.1 Intact Fuel Assemblies A CASMO-3 evaluation of the reactivity of each fuel assembly in a rack type configuration is performed for the two types of Westinghouse assemblies and the Exxon assembly.Table 4.3-10 lists the reactivity differences between the assemblies as a function of burnup for an infinite array of rack Type 1 cells.The Westinghouse OFA assembly is seen to be the most reactive for fresh fuel for normal reactor enrichments, while the Westinghouse Standard assembly is the most reactive for fuel with burnups above about 12 GWd/mtU.The Exxon assembly is bounded by the two Westinghouse assemblies.

A separate study for low enrichments, i.e., about 1.95 wt%, showed the Westinghouse Standard assembly to be most reactive even when mesh (the enrichment is similar to that for burned assemblies).

These results were factored into the final KENO V.a rack analyses to provide the most reactive conditions by appropriate use of the most reactive fuel in the models.Thus, no penalty is required to correct for fuel assembly type.In addition to the three basic types of fuel assemblies, 12 Lead Test Assemblies are also stored in the spent fuel rack.They are two each of B&W and Exxon Standard assembly designs, four Exxon Annular Pellet designs, and four Westinghouse Standard mixed-oxide designs.CASMO-3 evaluations of these assemblies showed that their reactivities are bounded by that of the Westinghouse Standard assembly.Thus, they are subject to the same restrictions as the Westinghouse Standard assembly.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 337 y

4.3.2.5.2 Consolidated Fuel Containers KENO V.a is used to evaluate the reactivity of the consolidation containers for both normal and abnormal conditions.

For the normal condition, an evaluation is made of the intact containers in the storage racks.The evaluation examines&esh fuel enrichments of 1.6 and 2.22 wt%"'U at storage pool temperatures,-68'F, for each major type fuel assembly.The container model includes only the outer walls of the container with dimensions bounded by Table 4.3-2.The reactivity worth of the inner plate is also assessed in the evaluation.

The reactivity of the container is optimized with a series of cases varying both the number of pins and the pin pitch.The evaluation examines storage of only consolidation containers in a rack or a combination of intact fuel assemblies and containers.

The accident case considers a loss of containment of the container that allows the fuel pins to spill into the storage pool.For convenience, a 19x19 array of pins (361)is examined (3 more than available in a full container).

The pitch of the array is optimized to provide a bounding accident condition.

In addition the effect of the minimum concentration of soluble boron in the pool water, 450 ppm, is determined.

This evaluation, for both the normal and abnormal conditions, ensure that the storage of consolidation canisters satisfies the criticality safety criterion for both full and partially filled containers.

4.3.2.6 Summary of Biases, Penalties, and Uncertainties in Analysis The calculated k,ir from KENO V.a results must be adjusted to account for methodology bias and, penalties and uncertainties associated with differences between the calculational model and variations in key parameters of the model.The methodology bias is discussed in Section 4.2.1.Manufacturing tolerance uncertainties and penalties are discussed in Section 4.3.2, as are other uncertainties associated with the choice of parameters factored into the models.These biases, penalties, and uncertainties are summarized in Table 4.3-12 for the four rack types.An additional uncertainty relative to the self shielding of"B in Boraflex"" is also included in the rack Type 1 summary.The last row lists the approximate adjustment factor to obtain K obtained from the additive and statistical combinations of these values.An estimate of the projected calculational uncertainty based upon one million neutron histories, 0.0007, is assumed to obtain this factor.4.3.3 Region 1 Analysis Region 1 (rack Type 3)stores spent and&esh fuel in a checkerboard pattern.All interior Region 1 cells are formed by four borated stainless steel sheets (see Section 1.3.1 for a detailed description).

Each cell containing a spent assembly also contains a stainless steel casing which surrounds the borated stainless steel plates.Table 4.3-3a lists the dimensions of the rack cell that are explicitly modeled with KENO V.a.Based upon the evaluations for the most reactive assembly (Section 4.3.2.5), a Westinghouse.

OFA assembly represents the bounding fresh assembly while a Westinghouse Standard bounds the spent assemblies.

A discussion of the geometrical model and the burnup credit methodology for Region 1 is provided in this section.4.3.3.1 Region 1 Geometry Models The base KENO V.a model represents an infinite rack array in the x-y plane.The axial dimension includes an active fuel length of 144" (365.76 cm)with a 12" (30.48 cm)top and bottom water refiector.

The structure of the cells, four BSS rack cells (two with and two without the SS casings), are explicitly modeled in the x-y plane.Periodic boundary conditions on the outer faces of the four combined cell models generate an infinite x-y array of Region 1 cells.Figure 4.3-2 illustrates the base model with two fresh OFA assemblies and two spent Standard assemblies.

The axial 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 338 t

representation of the infinite model is shown in Figure 4.3-3.Note that this rack has lead-in funnels in the cells without SS casings to facilitate loading of off-loaded fuel.Fresh fuel must only be placed in these cells, not in those with SS casings (and without lead-in funnels)and are so modeled.Reversing the positions increases the reactivity of this region by about 0.2%b k.4.3.3.2 Burnup Credit The application of burnup credit requires more calculations than the typical mesh fuel analysis.The reactivity effect of the following items must be evaluated and factored into the analysis: Operating history including fuel and moderator temperature, Axial burnup distributions as a function of burnup, and Measured burnup uncertainty.

These items contribute to the residual reactivity of the burned fuel, especially for the axial distribution.

For a Region 2 type rack which contains burned fuel adjacent to burned fuel, consideration of the axial burnup distribution is necessary to adequately define the loading curve.However, for a checkerboard of&esh and burned fuel, the fresh fuel completely dominates the system's reactivity.

Thus, consideration of a uniform average burnup shape for the checker boarded spent fuel is all that is required.This is illustrated in Section 4.4.2.The following methodology describes the steps to calculate the burnup versus enrichment curve for Region 1.A CASMO-3 hot-full-power depletion with core average fuel and moderator temperatures is performed to determine the isotopic concentrations for the average burnup of an assembly.A second CASMO-3 calculation provides the base k;, for a fuel assembly with all isotopes for rack temperature conditions (note that xenon and iodine are removed)at shutdown.A third CASMO-3 rack model calculates the k;~with only the shutdown fuel pin concentrations of"0,~'U,'U,"'U,~'Pu,"'Pu,"'Pu, and'"Sm (xenon and iodine are eliminated in both models).A small amount of"B is added to the fuel pin until the k;from the second CASMO-3 calculation agrees with that of the first.In this manner, the added'simulates the neutron absorption of the isotopes not present in the KENO V.a model.These concentrations are inserted in the KENO V.a model and k,a.calculated.

If the k,~is not satisfactory, the burnup is changed and the entire process repeated until a target K of about 0.94 is obtained.This is then repeated for additional enrichment values.The burnup/enrichment pairs provide the points to define a polynomial fit to the burnup versus enrichment curve of Figure 4.1-1 that generates the values in Table 4.1-1.Based upon the conservatism inherent in the model and the penalties applied, the proximity to the 0.95 criticality limit is justified.

4.3.4 Region

2 Analysis Region 2 consists of rack Types 1, 2, and 4.Type 1 is the existing Boraflex rack which contain 840 cells in a 30 x 28 array.The Type 2 racks (see Figure 1.1-1)consist of two borated stainless steel (BSS)racks, rack 2A (8 x 11 array)and rack 2B (9 x 11 array).Type 4 racks consist of six individual racks of 10 cells each (Figure 1.3-13)and are attached to North and South faces of the Type 1 racks.An infinite model of each of the Types 1 and 2 racks provides the evaluation for these racks.The single row dimension, and positioning of the Type 4 rack preclude an individual analysis of this rack.The evaluation for this rack is combined into a model containing both rack Types 1 aild 2.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 339 5 8 w P k 4.3.4.1 Region 2 Geometry Models Individual infinite (in x-y plane)rack models are used for rack Types 1 and 2.The evaluation of Type 4 requires consideration of interactions with Type 1 to adequately evaluate the reactivity of this rack type.Since a combination of rack types is required, a model is developed that examines all the Region 2 rack types together for the evaluation of Type 4.In all cases, the use of the Westinghouse Standard assembly provides bounding results for spent fuel in this region.4.3.4.1.1 Rack Type 1-Boraflex Rack The Boraflex rack contains only a single cell configuration.

A model of this cell was created and combined into a multi-cell array with periodic boundary conditions to create an infinite array in x-y extent (see Figure 4.3-5).The axial model is similar to that for Region 1, as illustrated in Figure 4.3-3.The nominal dimensions listed in Table 4.3-4 were used in the explicit model of this rack.As noted in Section 4.2.4 a significant amount of Boraflex degradation is included in the model.The model contains a 16x16 array of cells with Boraflex panels each containing a randomly distributed 12" axial gap, a 8%width shrinkage, and a 50%reduction in the plate thickness.

A nominal rack model without degradation provides a measure of the reactivity change obtained&om this degraded model.4.3.4.1.2 Rack Type 2-Borated Stainless Steel Rack The BSS racks contain two cell types.One type is manufactured Rom 3 mm, borated stainless-steel plates (SS304 B7), and the other consists of a 2 mm, unborated stainless-steel can (SS304L).Figures 1.3-8 and 1.3-12 provide illustrative drawings for this rack type.The two basic cells are fabricated into a checkerboard pattern with a nominal 2.32 mm water gap located between cells in the x-y directions.

The model of the 2x2 array of the two different cells uses a periodic boundary condition to create an infinite array in the x-y plane (see Figure 4.3-6).4.3.4.1.3 Region 2 Combined Model for Rack Type 4 Evaluation Rack Type 4 (Figure 1.3-13)is similar in design to rack Type 2.However, there are some notable differences.

This type consists of only a single row of cells with a relatively large water gap between rack Type 4 and either rack Type 1 or the pool wall (see Figure 1.1-1).The large water gaps allows the absorber cells to be fabricated with BSS plates only between adjacent Type 4 cells, i.e., in the east-west direction.

Based on the single row configuration, this type can be adequately analyzed only in combination with the adjacent Type 1 rack.A combined model was developed for the interface effect evaluations (Section 4.3.5)for Types 1, 2 and 4, i.e., the south face of Type 1 (see Figure 4.3-7).It was used for the evaluation of this rack.The south face of Type 1 was chosen since this face does not contain Boraflex.This lack of Boraflex facing the Type 4 rack makes this more reactive than the north face.Inclusion of Type 2 allows a good assessment of the total reactivity of Region 2.The base interface model is described in Section 4.3.5.Modifications to this model were made to implement the degraded Boraflex model into the Type 1 model.Thus, a bounding, geometrical model of Region 2 is contained in this evaluation.

\V 4.3.4.2 Region 2 Loading Curve Generation As mentioned above for Region 1, the application of burnup credit requires several basic calculational steps: 1)determine appropriate axial power shapes as a function of burnup, 2)determine axial intervals to be modeled, and generate burnup isotopics and cross sections for these burnup intervals, 3)integrate operating history data into the model directly or through appropriate penalties to be applied to the final results, and 4)iterate on burnup for a series of enrichments to develop an acceptable burnup versus enrichment curve for the storage rack design.For a rack containing completely burned fuel axial effects are significant and must be assessed.This section provides a brief description of the methodology for the burnup credit analysis.Details for these steps are provided in Section 4.4.2.This methodology for burnup credit is very similar to that accepted by the U.S.Nuclear Regulatory Commission4.I0,4.is,4.>6 4.3.4.2.1 Base Burnup vs Enrichment Curve Generation Generation of the burnup versus enrichment curve includes consideration of axial burnup effects and fuel irradiation conditions.

This information is used to obtain the isotopic concentrations of the burned fuel for the analysis.A brief description of this process is provided in this section.Axial profiles are determined for selected average burnup values from three dimensional fuel cycle design data for the Ginna reactor.These profiles are then collapsed into the seven axial segments used in the KENO V.a model.The top and bottom three segments are exactly the same burnups, and spacings, of the 3D fuel cycle design calculations.

The center burnup segment is adjusted to balance the average assembly burnup to the desired burnup value when weighted with the burnups at the ends of the assembly.Previous studies have shown that the seven axial zone model provides results equivalent to a 15 axial segment model'" which nearly duplicates the nodes in the fuel cycle design analysis.A CASMO-3 hot-full-power depletion is performed to determine the isotopic concentrations in each axial segment at the appropriate burnup and fuel and moderator temperature.

A second CASMO-3 calculation provides the base k;~for a fuel assembly with all isotopes for the rack temperature condition at shutdown.A third CASMO-3 rack model calculates the~with only the shutdown fuel pin concentrations of'60 nsU,+U,+U,+Pu, Pu,'Pu, and'm (xenon and iodine are eliminated in both rack CASMO-2 calculation).

A small amount of'is added to the fuel pin until the second CASMO-3 k;~agrees with the first.In this manner, the added"B simulates the neutron absorption of the isotopes not present in the KENO V.a model.To generate the curve, an iteration process is used to determine the minimum burnup to give a target k,ff, about 0.94 for this case.If for the initial burnup, the KENO V.a is not satisfactory, the burnup is changed, and the entire process repeated for a given burnup profile.This method is repeated for several enrichments to obtain the burnup/enrichment pairs for the loading curve in Figure 4.1-2.A polynomial is fit to the burnup versus enrichment curve of Figure 4.1-2 to allow generation of the points in Table 4.1-2.Based upon the conservatism inherent in the model, the use of bounding axial profiles, and the penalties applied, the proximity to the 0.95 criticality limit is justified.

4.3.4.3 Generation of the Loading Curve for Abnormal Assemblies Figure 4.1-2 defines the burnup versus enrichment requirements for the Region 2 storage racks.Fuel located above the base curve, areas Al and A2, can be loaded anywhere in Region 2 next to fuel with burnups above the base line.Most of the burned fuel assemblies currently residing in the racks 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 341 0

(diamonds in Figure 4.1-2)fall in areas Al or A2.To allow flexibility, and to preclude filling the Region 1 rack with lower burned assemblies, evaluations are made to determine the administrative controls to load fuel assemblies falling below the curve in Figure 4.1-2.These evaluations examine two classes of fuel assemblies below the base curve: those with average burnup within a specified burnup range below the burnup versus enrichment curve limit, area B, and those with burnup below this range, area C.The analysis develops secondary curves to allow storage of those assemblies with burnups (Figure 4.1-2)up to about 15%below the normal curve, defined as area B.Following the above procedure for the normal curve, an administrative loading scheme is developed that relies on the two secondary curves in Figure 4.1-2 (the upper and lower boundary lines).The intercept of the polynomial fit to the base curve is adjusted to fit a burnup point 10%below the base curve at 5.0 wt%"'U nominal enrichment.

This value is further reduced 5%to account for measured burnup uncertainty to give a total value of (0.9)(0.95)

=0.855 below the 5.0 wt%enrichment curve value.This curve has the same slope as the base curve.Based upon this lower curve, CASMO-3 rack calculations generate the upper boundary polynomial line.This is done with a rack model containing four cells that checker board the lower line fuel with estimated values on the upper line for 5.0 wt%"'U fuel.The burnup for the upper line is adjusted until the k;, of the model equals that for the base line.Once the burnup is defined, the intercept of the base line polynomial is adjusted to fit this point.Thus, the upper curve also has the same slope as the base curve.It is noted that for lower burnups, the burnups in area B may be significantly lower than 10%of the nominal curve.The above calculations define a checker-board loading scheme.Area B assemblies with burnups above the lower burnup boundary must be loaded directly adjacent (in a checker board pattern)to area Al assemblies with burnups above the upper burnup boundary line.Another acceptable loading pattern for these fuel assemblies is alternating rows of A1 and B assemblies.

If the B fuel is placed on the outside edge of a rack near the pool wall, A1 fuel must be placed directly adjacent to it in the rack.KENO V.a calculations at several enrichments verify the validity of the additional curves.Fuel with burnups and enrichments below the lower boundary line, designated area C fuel, require an alternate loading scheme for storage in the Region 2 fuel racks.The limiting area C fuel assembly is fresh fuel at a nominal enrichment of 4.0 wt%~'U.A KENO V.a calculation for this condition uses two 4.0 wt%"'U fresh fuel assemblies diagonally opposite each other in a checker board pattern with two water locations (no assemblies).

Thus, the use of water holes adjacent to fuel will satisfy the loading criteria for any enrichment/burnup combination.

This arrangement may be used in place of storing fuel below the line in Region 1.4.3.5 Interface Effects The interaction between Regions 1 and 2, i.e., interface effects, is also examined, as well as that between the Boraflex racks and BSS racks in Region 2.Three areas of the racks in the pool were modeled to assess these effects.The areas of interest as shown in Figure 4.3-7 are: 1.Interfaces between (1)racks 3C and 2B and (2)racks 2B and 3E.2.Interfaces between racks 1, 4F, and 3A.3.Interfaces between racks 1, 4C, and 2A.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 342

Figures 4.3-8, 4.3-9, and 4.3-10 show sketches of each model.The same KENO V.a geometry models were identical for the examination of the 2B/3C interface and the 2B/3E interface.

The only difference was the position of a spike in the neutron starting distributions at the interface of interest.A similar start type application was applied to models 2 and 3 listed above for the other interfaces.

In each model, sufficient concrete, 19.7" (50 cm), and water, 12" (30.48cm)is modeled to adequately represent reflective surfaces.4.3.6 Accident Analysis The accident analyses examine the following assembly drop conditions for each region: an assembly dropped horizontally on top of rack Types 2 and 3 and an assembly dropped vertically beside racks 2B and 3E.For both Regions 1 and 2, the effect of a misplaced assembly was also examined to ensure criticality safety.For a seismic event, the reduction in the rack Types 2 and 3 rack-to-rack separation distance was examined.These accidents are extremely improbable, and any associated reactivity increase can be mitigated by the soluble boron in the pool water.As part of this analysis, the reactivity effect of the soluble boron in the water was evaluated to determine the reactivity margins for the accident conditions.

The KENO V.a accident models are based on the infinite, or finite base models for both regions.Only modifications necessary to describe the accident condition are made to the base models.This allows assessment of the impact of the accident by examining the reactivity difference between the results from normal and accident models.4.3.6.1 Region 1 Assembly Drop Analyses Region 1 assembly drop analyses include the T-bone (shallow drop), side drop, and deep drop accidents.

The following paragraphs describe the models for each accident.The T-bone accident is a class of shallow-drop accidents in which the dropped assembly is assumed to lay horizontally atop the rack (see Figure 4.3-11).The dropped assembly is represented as a full assembly in both the x and y directions.

Periodic boundary conditions on the right and bottom faces approximate a dropped assembly at the center of a 24 x 24 cell rack region.The rack deformation from the dropped assembly is negligible (Section 3.5.3.2.3.2.1).

However, for conservatism, the model places the dropped assembly in direct contact with the top of the active fuel region of the assemblies in the rack, i.e., the upper nozzles are neglected.

This provides a bounding accident scenario.For a reference case the same model is used with the dropped assembly replaced with water.The difference between the k,ff of the accident and the reference case provides the reactivity increase of the accident.The T-bone model bounds the other shallow-drop accident, the vertical drop, in which the dropped assembly falls into a storage space and impacts upon the top of a stored assembly but remains vertically above the assembly.Since the upper and lower endfitting dimensions will maintain at least a 4" (10.16 cm)gap between the active fuel regions, the accident is less reactive than the modeled T-bone accident.Any reactivity effects&om the minor bowing that may result in the stored assembly due to the impact will be negligible relative to the margin obtained from the soluble boron in the pool water.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 343 I

The Region 1 side-drop model required modification to the rack Type 3 finite model (Figure 4.3-4)in that the southwest corner cell of rack 3E was removed and replaced with a&esh assembly immediately next to racks 3E and 2B (see Figure 4.3-12).This configuration is not considered possible, but is used for conservatism.

This is the only location that exists where an assembly can be vertically dropped and have fuel on two adjacent faces without an absorber material between the dropped assembly and those in the racks.Based upon this consideration it is also the most reactive configuration for a side drop accident.A second case with the dropped assembly replaced with water provides the base case for determination of the reactivity increase due to the accident.The deep-drop accident considers a fuel assembly dropped into a rack cell (see Figure 4.3-13).The assembly is assumed to impact the bottom plate of the rack which is supported by pads on about 37" (94 cm)centers.It is assumed that an assembly drops at the center of a section and deforms the rack base plate to the maximum determined from the structural analyses, 2.12" (Section 3.5.3.2.3.1.1).

Thus, the drop causes a concave depression in the plate, with assemblies positioned along the curved surface, Figure 4.3-13.Due to the complexity of explicitly modeling the accident condition, a bounding analysis is used.The analysis assumed all fuel assemblies in the rack were displaced 3.2" (8.13 cm)below the bottom of the rack.The hk from a base model is determined as well as the minimum boron concentration pool water needed to reduce the system below the 0.95 limit.Note that due to the similarity in construction of rack Types 2, 3, and 4, the results from the Type 3 rack bounds those from Types 2 and 4.The misplaced assembly accident assumes that during loading an assembly is placed in a location that violates the loading curve requirements.

The accident model assumes that a fresh 4.0 wt%"U fuel assembly is placed into a spent rack location between four&esh assemblies (see Figure 4.3-14)in the Region 1 finite model.The model focuses the neutron starting distribution into the misplaced assembly to ensure that the assembly is adequately sampled.The result of this model is then compared with that of the normal condition, finite model to assess the b,k effect of the misplaced assembly.4.3.6.2 Region 2 Assembly Drop Analyses Four accidents were examined for the Region 2 racks: the T-bone on rack Type 2, side drop, misplaced assembly, and deep drop into a storage cell.The accident models assumed that the rack contained the highest allowable&esh fuel enrichment.

The dropped assembly is assumed to be fresh 4.0 wt%'U fuel.The use of the maximum enrichment provides a bounding accident analysis with respect to fuel loadings.The model for the Region 2 T-bone accident is similar to that for Region 1.For Region 2, rack Type 2 was used for the accident model since in a normal condition it is slightly more reactive that Type 1.Figure 4.3-11 provides a sketch of the model with the dropped assembly laying horizontally across the top of the rack.The b,k is determined from the results from cases with and without the dropped assembly.The side-drop accident for Region 2 has already been considered in that used for Region 1.The dropped assembly is positioned adjacent to rack Type 3 of Region 1 and Type 2 of Region 2 (Figure 4.3-12).As noted in the discussion for the Region 1 accident, this is a bounding analysis and an individual assessment for the other rack types of Region 2 is unnecessary.

If rack Type 4 is installed 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 344 0'll q?,"<<.-

in the pool (Figure 4.3-1), there is insufficient space to place an assembly between the rack and the pool wall.However, prior to its installation, there is sufficient room for a dropped assembly to lodge between the wall and rack Type 1.This again is bounded by the analysis for the dropped assembly located in the corner of Types 2 and 3.The worst case for rack Type 1 is a drop on the south side of the array which does not contain Boraflex on the outer surface.This is equivalent to the assembly dropped adjacent to the Type 2 rack cell which also does not contain BSS-.Thus, only a single layer of stainless steel separates the assemblies.

The stainless steel in the Type 1 rack is about 0.01" (0.0254 cm)thicker than the Type 2.Due to the mild absorption of the stainless steel, this will reduce the effect of the drop in the Type 1 rack.In addition, based upon the results from the Type 2 and 3 side drop (Table 4.3-13), the effect is minimal and a low level of soluble boron reduces maintains k,~within acceptable limits.A misplaced assembly model was created for rack Types 1 and 2 similar to that for Region 1.In each model a 4.0 wt%~'U fuel assembly is placed either into the Boraflex cell of rack Type 1 (see Figure 4.3-15), or into the stainless steel cell of rack Type 2.The misplaced assembly is placed in a location to provide a bounding reactivity increase.Both models focus the starting neutrons into the misplaced assembly.The Boraflex rack model includes Boraflex degradation and assumes that the misplaced assembly is placed in the most reactive checker board location of spent fuel assemblies.

The model assumes an infinite array of 144 cells with a 4 wt%~'U OFA assembly near the center of the array.The results of these models are then compared with those of the finite geometry models to assess the hk effect of the misplaced assembly.The deformation due to the deep drop accident for rack Types 2 and 4 is equivalent to that for rack Type 3 (Figure 4.3-13).Thus, they, are covered by that analysis.Rack Type 1 has been fabricated differently

&om the Type 2, 3, and 4 racks.Rather than a single base plate across the bottom of each rack, individual plates are welded at the bottom of each cell to support the fuel assembly.Thus, under the hypothetical drop accident (Figure 4.3-16), it is assumed that the bottom welds break.This will allow a maximum of 14" (35.56 cm)of the assembly to be exposed below the rack.Due to the unique construction of each cell, there is no damage, or deformation, in surrounding cells.Two types of fuel assemblies can be considered for this accident.For a spent assembly that can be stored in the cell in which it is dropped, the post accident condition is equivalent to a partially inserted assembly during loading and results in no impact on criticality safety.Similarly for a fresh 4.0 wt%~'U fuel assembly, this accident is bounded by the misplaced assembly accident.The portion of the dropped assembly in the cell is equivalent to a misplaced assembly and is bounded by that evaluation.

The 14" (35.56 cm)displacement below the rack is equivalent the portion of an assembly that protrudes&om the rack during insertion.

This portion is essentially isolated from the assemblies in the rack and thus does not affect the reactivity of the rack.Thus, since this accident condition is bounded by the misplaced assembly accident;the minimum soluble boron concentration in the pool is sufficient to offset any reactivity increase.4.3.6.3 Seismic Analysis The structural analysis for the seismic accident indicates that there will be no impacts between adjacent racks or between the racks and the pool walls (Section 3.5.3.1.14).

Thus, there is no mechanism for significant permanent rack deformations in either rack region.The analysis shows that during the worst seismic event, the gaps between the racks will always be greater than 0.071" (0.18 cm), see Table 3.5-137 and 3.5-138 column labeled'Final Gap Between Racks'.This includes 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 345 r

both lateral movement and momentary swaying of the rack during the seismic event.Thus, there is'no physical contact between adjacent racks.Based upon these results, an evaluation of the reactivity effect of rack movement was made for Regions 1 and 2 and for the interfaces between these regions.The specific models for the seismic events are discussed below.4.3.6.3.1 Region 1 Seismic Analysis The Region 1 based plates normally are spaced 0.79" (2.0 cm)apart (see Figure 3.5-36), approximately maintaining the rack cell pitch.For the seismic analysis, it is assumed that each rack Type 3 base plate touches that of the adjacent rack.The geometry model for the Region 1 seismic model is identical to Region 1 interface model sketched in Figure 4.3-7, except that the nominal water gaps between the base plates are reduced to zero width, i.e.the base plates are touching.The b,k effect of the Region 1 seismic event is determined from the difference between the nominal water gap model and the model without water gaps between the base plates.4.3.6.3.2 Region 2 Seismic Analysis As in Region 1, the seismic event may cause the free standing Region 2 racks to shiA, one relative to the other, such that the base plates may touch each other.This accident has no effect on the current criticality analysis, since an infinite array of cells is considered without inter-rack spacings.Thus, the base model is identical to a seismic model.So even if the racks move directly adjacent to each other or if the cans sway and touch at the top without rack movement, the resulting geometry is no more limiting than the infinite lattice.This is verified further by the explicit interface models for Region 1 and 2 in the next section.4.3.6.3.3 Interface Region Seismic Analysis The seismic event is assumed to move all the racks so that their base plates are touching.This was modeled for the Type 1,2, and 3 racks.For Type 4 amore severe result was modeled.This model assumed that the Type 4 racks were compressed until they touched the edges of the Type 1 racks.=All these conditions are beyond the seismic conditions projected by the structural analyses in Section 3.5.3.1.14.

At the interface between the two regions, the seismic event is assumed to reduce the spacing between Regions 1 and 2.The combined interface model is used with a reduced spacing between the regions of 0.004" (0.01 cm).Again, this bounds any actual calculated minimum gap of 0.071" (0.18 cm), which reduces the separation between cells from 1.57" (4.0 cm)to 0.85" (2.17 cm).The difference between the results of the seismic and the base interface models determine the hk of the event.As with the interface models, the size of the racks requires an examination of selected portions of the racks (see Figure 4.3-7).The first evaluation examined the Type 2 and 3 movement.The evaluation seismic effects on the Type 1 racks, were divided into effects for Types 1, 2A, and 4C, i.e., the south face of the rack, and the north face, Types 1, 3A, and 4F.The south face is expected to show the highest increase in reactivity because of the lack of Boraflex on the south face of the Type 1 rack.4.3.7 Summary of Results This section lists the results&om the various analyses for the Ginna storage racks.They show that the racks satisfy the 0.95 criticality safety criterion for both normal and abnormal conditions.

The bases for this conclusion are provided in this section.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 346 4.3.7.1 Analytical Results for Region 1 The results for the normal condition of Region 1 are listed in Table 4.1-3 which provides the calculated k,if and the maximum k, K as a function ofburnup and enrichment.

Accident condition reactivities are summarized in Table 4.3-13.A brief discussion of these results is given in this section.4.3.7.1.1 Normal Condition Results Each model used in this analysis provides a calculated k,based upon nominal dimensions.

Thus, the effects of variations around the nominal and biases must be combined with the calculated k,a to determine maximum K-effective (K g.Table 4.3-12 summarizes the Region 1 penalties, uncertainties, and biases that are used to obtain K.K is calculated for Region 1 as follows:<=>,g+~>+~>+

The Region 1 analyses considered fresh 4.0 wt%"'U fuel checker boarded with spent fuel.The spent fuel burnup versus enrichment curve illustrated in Figure 4.1-1 specifies the minimum burnup versus enrichment for the loading spent fuel adjacent to fresh assemblies in this region.The target of used to generate the curve was approximately 0.92 to provide a K of about 0.94.The KENO V.a results are shown in Table 4.1-3.These results are based upon 1,000,000 neutron histories(1000 batches of 1003 neutrons), as are all KENO V.a results.As seen, the highest K for any enrichment is 0.943 with a margin to the limit of 0.0081.This verifies that the Region 1 racks satisfy the criticality safety criterion for fresh fuel with a nominal enrichment less s 4.0 wt%"'U.The minimum burnup values listed in Table 4.1-3 are those that provide the desired k,ir&om KENO V.a.However, the loading of assemblies in the rack is based upon'measured'urnups from the plant computer.To account for the uncertainty in the measured burnup, the calculated burnups used in the loading curve are increased by 5%.The 5%value is based upon the flux map measurement uncertainty of the incore detectors'" and is similar to the uncertainty of other Westinghouse plants""'".Since burnup is the integrated power over time, the power uncertainty limits the maximum uncertainty in burnup to less than 4%for the integrated power and 5%for the local power.Thus, a 5%value has been conservatively selected for the uncertainty of the assembly average measured burnup.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 347 s~.+~C'O'.'E-4!'

4.3.7.1.2 Burnup Versus Enrichment Curve A polynomial curve is generated to allow easy determination of the burnup limit at a given nominal enrichment based on the data points in Table 4.1-3.A multiple regression analysis is performed on the enrichment/burnup points, and a third order polynomial is determined.

The resulting polynomial curve that differentiates Region A from Region B in Figure 4.1-1 is: y=-53.570547+38.06359x

-7.81411x'+0.692842x'here x is nominal enrichment in wt%"U andy is in terms of either MWd/kgU or GWd/mtU.Based upon this polynomial, the minimum burnup for fuel with a nominal enrichment of 4.0 wt%"'U is 28 GWd/mtU.For the loading curve and Table 4.1-1, this value is multiplied by 1.05 to account for the burnup measurement uncertainty.

Thus, for fuel with a nominal enrichment of 5.0 wt%'U fuel, a minimum burnup of 29.4 GWd/mtU is required for the spent fuel to be loaded in Region 1.Table 4.1-1 lists the acceptable burnups versus enrichments based upon the above polynomial fit to verified points at enrichments of 2.22, 3, 4, and 5 wt%.4.3.7.1.3 IFBA Rod Requirements The previous licensing analysis'" used the concept of reactivity equivalencing for storage of fuel assemblies with nominal enrichments greater than 4.0 wt%~'U in the Region 1 racks.This concept, based upon the reactivity decrease associated with the addition of Integral Fuel Burnable Absorbers, is retained for fuel with nominal enrichments greater than 4.0 wt%"'U.The IFBA analysis performed for the previous licensing report was not repeated in its entirety.However, CASMO-3 calculations were performed to verify that the IFBA requirements specified in that analysis remain valid for the BSS racks of Region 1.Similarly, the kreference criticality reactivity point was verified as 1.458 for fresh fuel in Ginna core geometry with a nominal enrichment of 4.0 wt%~'U.Thus, the results, and appropriate use of the results&om the previous analysis remains applicable to storage of fuel assemblies with nominal enrichments greater than 4.0 wt%"U in the Region 1 racks.For completeness, the appropriate IFBA sections of the previous licensing document are listed in Section 4.4.3.4.3.7.1.4 Accident Conditions The results for the analysis of the assembly drop accidents, i.e., T-bone, misplaced assembly, side drop and deep drop, are discussed in this section.In addition, the results&om the seismic event are provided for all rack types.a)Assembly Drop Accidents-The Region 1 assembly drop analyses include the T-bone, side drop, deep drop (or drop through)accidents, and the misplaced assembly.Table 4.3-13 summarizes the results from these analyses.The T-bone accident has a minimal effect on reactivity, i.e., within the statistical uncertainty of the cases, even though it is a very conservative model.The misloading of a 4 wt%'U fresh assembly between four adjacent assemblies shows only a small reactivity increase, about 1%b,k.The deep drop accident with maximum expected deformation of the base plate shows essentially no change in reactivity.

The dropping of an assembly in the cask lay down area (Figure 4.3-12), in the corner between racks 3E and 2B, shows the largest increase for a dropped assembly, about 4%hk.Since application of the soluble boron credit is allowed by the double 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 348 114 1*4,~<<4 contingency principle, 300 ppm boron was added to the water in the model.This reduced the reactivity about 2%hk below the base case, or about 6%h,k below the accident value.Thus, a small concentration of boron in the pool water,<300 ppm, easily compensates for the reactivity from any of these accidents.

b)Seismic Conditions

-As discussed in Section 4.3.6.3, the seismic event is assumed to have moved all the racks so that their base plates are touching.This was modeled for the Type 1, 2, and 3 racks.For Type 4 a more severe result was modeled.This model assumed that the Type 4 racks were compressed until they touched the edges of the Type 1 racks.All these conditions are beyond.the post-event conditions projected by the structural analyses in Section 3.5.3.1.14.

The results of the analyses are listed in Table 4.3-15.The first evaluation examined the Type 2 and 3 movement.The accident results in about a 0.4%hk increase in reactivity over the normal condition.

Due to the number of Type 1 racks in Region 2, the evaluation of seismic effects on the Type 1 racks examined only portions of Region 1 (see Figure 4.3-7).The effect on Type 1, and racks 2A and 4C, i.e., the south face of the rack, and Type 1 and racks 3A and 4F, the north face, were considered individually.

The south face, as expected, showed the highest increase, about 1%hk.This was expected due to lack of Boraflex on the south face of the Type 1 rack.The north face showed an increase equivalent to that for Types 2 and 3 alone, about 0.4%hk.Due to the small change in reactivity associated with this accident, the 300 ppm soluble boron required to cover the side-drop accident is more than sufficient to cover the seismic event effects.4.3.7.2 Analytical Results for Region 2 The Region 2 analysis requires a more in-depth discussion since burnup credit is more extensively applied in Region 2.The results for the normal conditions are discussed in Section 4.3.7.2.1.

Development of the burnup versus enrichment curve is addressed in Section 4.3.7.2.2.

A discussion

• of the auxiliary curves that allow the loading of abnormal assemblies is provided in Section 4.3.7.2.3.

Finally accident condition results are related in Section 4.3.7.2.4.

4.3.7.2.1 Analytical Results for Normal Conditions Each model used in this analysis provides a calculated k,ir based upon nominal dimensions.

Thus, adjustments are made to the calculated k,~to obtain the maximum k,a (K g.Table 4.3-12 summarizes the Region 2 uncertainties, penalties, and biases and combines the individual values to provide the overall adjustment as a function of rack type.These values are then applied to the k,a.calculated by KENO V.a as follows: IC,=k,~+6kb,+6k,+

As discussed in Section 4.4.2.4, a significant amount of Boraflex degradation, i.e., both gapping and loss of thickness, are included in the base model for the Type 1 rack (providing a hk margin of 0.048, see Section 4.4.2.4).To facilitate the management of the loading of the rack, a single loading curve for all three rack types is desired.Thus, the loading curve for Type 1 is bounding.This rack represents the base model that is used to generate the loading curve.Subsequently, the application of this curve to Types 2 and 4 will validate the conservatism of a single loading curve for all rack types in Region 2.The burnup versus enrichment curve for Region 2 is illustrated in Figure 4.1-2.It specifies the minimum burnup versus enrichment for loading spent fuel in this region.The target k,a used to generate the curve was about 0.93 to provide a g of about 0.94.The results of the KENO V.a calculations are shown in Table 4.1-4 for all the rack types comprising Region 2.As seen, the highest K for any enrichment is 0.946 with a margin to the limit of 0.004.This verifies that the Region 2 racks satisfy the criticality safety criterion.

Also recall that the values for the Type 4 rack result&om a finite model that combines all three types in Region 1 and represents the more reactive south face.This combination shows that the infinite models used to generate the results for Types 2 and 3 provides an additional margin in the results over that from a more explicit finite model.4.3.7.2.2 Base Burnup Versus Enrichment Curve As with Region 1, a polynomial curve is generated for Region 2 to allow easy determination of the burnup limit at a given enrichment.

For Region 2, the base curve fits the data points from the Type 1 results in Table 4.1-4.A multiple regression analysis is performed on the enrichment/burnup points, and a third order polynomial is determined.

The resulting polynomial curve that diQerentiates regions A1 and A2 from regions B and C in Figure 4.1-2 is: y=-27.058824+17.69608x

-0.41176x'0.04902x'here x is the nominal enrichment in wt%'U andy is in terms of either Mwd/KgU or GWd/mtU.Based upon this polynomial, the minimum burnup for fuel with a nominal enrichment of 5.0 wt%"U is 45 GWd/mtU.For the loading curve or Table 4.1-2, this value is multiplied by 1.05 to account for the burnup measurement uncertainty.

Thus, for fuel with a nominal enrichment of 5.0 wt%"'U fuel, a minimum burnup of 47.25 GWd/mtU is required for the spent fuel to be loaded in Region 1.Table 4.1-2 lists the acceptable base minimum burnups versus nominal enrichments

&om the above polynomial fit to verified points at nominal enrichments of 1.6, 3, 4, and 5 wt%.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 350 4.3.7.2.3 Loading Curve for Abnormally Burned Assemblies Figure 4.1-2 shows the base line curve and all assemblies that are currently stored in the Ginna storage rack.As noted most assemblies have burnups above the loading curve, areas Al and A2.However, some assemblies do not meet the minimum burnup requirements.

This condition is the result of accommodating a significant amount of Boraflex degradation into the models.Without this degradation model, all assemblies would satisfy the curve for the Boraflex rack, as is noted in the current license.However, with the Boraflex degradation all assemblies do not meet the loading requirements.

These assemblies can be loaded into Region 2 with more restrictive administrative controls.An auxiliary set of loading curves is obtained for assemblies s10%below the base curve,'efined by area B.These assemblies must be loaded in a checker board arrangement with fuel assemblies with burnups above the upper curve, in area Al.These curves are defined by the following polynomials:

y,=-33.584697

+17.69608x

-0.41176x'0.04902x'=

-19.565780+17.69608x

-0.41176x'0.04902x'here, y, is the equation of the lower line defining the lower limit of area B, and yis the equation of the upper line defining the lower limit of area Al.These lines are based upon the KENO V.a results for storage of fuel with a nominal enrichment of 5.0 wt%~'U with burnups at 38.5 and 55.2 GWd/mtU in a checker board arrangement in rack Type 1.Table 4.1-4 lists the K for this point.This value was obtained by applying an axial correction factor to the case that was evaluated for a uniform axial shape, see Section 4.4.2.The polynomial fit was generated based upon the constants of the base curve with the intercept chosen to pass through the required 5 wt%'U upper and lower burnup points.Points at 3 and 4 wt%"U were evaluated to verify the conservatism of this curve.For the 3 and 4 wt%"U enrichments, upper/lower burnups of 18/25 and 29.1/40 GWd/mtU were assumed in the calculation, respectively.

These burnups are within the upper and lower curves, i.e., requiring upper/lower burnups of 15.2/29.9 and 28.8/43.5 GWd/mtU for 3 and 4 wt%, respectively.

The k,ff values for the chosen burnups were 0.92840 and 0.90950, respectively.

Both values satisfy the criticality criterion with all factors included.Thus, even though the upper burnup is in area A2, the criticality criterion is met.This shows that there is conservatism built into the polynomial.

4.3.7.2.4 Results for Accident Conditions The results for the accidents considered for Region 2 are listed in Table 4.3-14.These include the T-bone and misplaced assembly analysis for rack Type 2 and the misplaced assembly and deep drop accident for Type 1.The side-drop accident for all rack types is bounded by that listed in Table 4.3-13 for the drop into the corner of racks 2B and 3E (Figure 4.3-12).The deep drop accident for Types 2 and 4 are equivalent to that for Type 3 since the base plates are of similar construction and will experience the same damage for this accident.Due to the fabrication similarity between rack Types 2 and 4, the accident results for these two racks will be equivalent.

Since the reactivity increases are minimal, an individual evaluation for Type 4 is not necessary.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 351 A review of Table 4.3-14 shows that the reactivity changes for the Type 2 and Type 4 racks are less than 1%ddc for all the drop accidents.

'This small change is within the range of that for Type 1 and easily covered by 450 ppm soluble boron.The Type 1 rack misplaced assembly gives a reactivity increase larger to that of the side-drop accident.The misplaced fresh assembly, see Figure 4.3-15, is assumed to replace an A1 assembly arranged in a checker board pattern with assemblies

&om area B.This is the bounding misplaced accident condition for this region.A minimum soluble boron concentration of 450 ppm reduces the reactivity to about 2%hk below the reactivity of the normal condition.

Thus, a small amount of soluble boron adequately negates the reactivity increase from this or any other accident condition.

4.3.S Fuel Rod Consolidation The storage racks currently contain several consolidated fuel containers and are designed to accommodate additional fuel consolidation in the future.Figure 4.3-17 provides a sketch of the consolidation canister with dimensions based upon Table 4.3-2.The storage of these containers was evaluated with a series of KENO V.a calculations for both normal and abnormal conditions.

The results of these calculations confirm the criticality safety of storage of consolidation containers in the storage racks.The evaluation of the consolidation canisters was made with modifications of the basic KENO V.a rack models.The modifications involved replacing spent fuel assemblies in each of the rack regions with a model of the consolidation canister.The base canister model assumed only a square stainless steel can with an outer square dimension of 8.02" (20.371cm) and a wall thickness of 0.089" (0.2261 cm).These dimensions include tolerance values, see Table 4.3-2, to provide the largest interior dimension for the container, 7.842" (19.919 cm).This dimension will provide the largest pitch for the fuel rods in the container and thus optimize the reactivity.

The base canister model contained 144" (356.76 cm)fuel rods without axial blankets or integral absorbers.

For Region 1, fresh 2.22 wt%~'U rods were placed in the container, while for Region 2, 1.6 wt%~'U rods were modeled.The optimum reactivity of the container in each type rack was then obtained with a series of KENO V.a cases by varying both the number and pitch of the rods in the container model.Table 4.3-11 lists the optimized results of this evaluation for Rack types 1, 2, and 3~The similarity between rack Types 2 and 4 obviated the need for an evaluation for the Type 4 rack.The resultslistedin Table4.3-11 for Rack Type 1 showthat for 1.6 wt%"Urods the criticality criterion is satisfied for the optimized container with either 196 rods from a Westinghouse standard assembly or 225 rods from a Westinghouse OFA assembly.These results are based upon the rack model with boraflex degradation.

These results differ Rom the previous analysis'" for this rack in two respects.First, they show that there are no restrictions on the number of rods that can be placed in the container.

Second, the optimized array size is 196 for Standard and 225 for OFA rods in this analysis for 1.6 wt%'U rods, and was 169 for Standard rods at 1.85 wt%and 196 for OFA rods at 1.95 wt%in the previous analysis.The optimization of rods is dependent upon both the configuration in which the rods are placed and upon the enrichment of the rods.For Rack Type 1 the enrichment is the primary cause for the differences.

This was verified by repeating the calculations with the conditions used in the previous analysis which showed agreement essentially within the statistical uncertainty of KENO V.a.An additional evaluation was made to assess the effect of the center plate in this rack.The center plate was added to the model between the center pins in the container (for the array with an odd number of pins, it was placed to one side of the center 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 352 C

of the container).

No re-optimization was made for this configuration, however due to the thinness of the plate, it is judged it will not significantly effect the optimization parameters.

The insertion of the center plate reduced K by about 2.7%hk for both the OFA and Standard assemblies.

Thus, there is significant conservatism in the models.The Rack Type 2 results in Table 4.3-11 are similar to those of Rack Type 1 relative to the optimum pitch.The lower K values reflect the conservatism inherent in this rack.This conservatism is based upon burnup versus enrichment curves based upon a degraded Rack Type 1 model that is applied to Rack Type 2.The Rack Type 3 results in Table 4.3-11 illustrate the effect of the'onfiguration in which the container is placed.The Rack Type 3 configuration causes the optimum number of OFA rods to peak at 196 rather than 225 rods.Both Rack Type 2 and 3 results show that the criticality criterion is satisfied without modeling the center plate.Additional margin exists due to the presence of the center plate.These results indicate that for normal conditions, the criticality condition is satisfied for storage of consolidation containers in locations for intact spent assemblies.

The analysis examined the maximum fresh fuel enrichment allowed by the burnup versus enrichment curve for each region.Based upon the reactivity equivalency of these curves, spent fuel rods with enrichment and burnup pairs in the acceptable areas of these curves can fill the containers and satisfy the criticality criterion.

The abnormal condition considers all the rods spilling from the consolidation container into the storage pool.To bound the accident condition, it is assumed that the rods form into an optimized square array in the storage pool.A 19x19 array of rods is modeled that provides a 361-rod array to bound the maximum number of rods that can be stored in the container, 358.The evaluation considers arrays of both 1.6 and 2.22 wt%"'U rods.CASMO-3 calculations determined the optimum pitch for these enrichments at about 1.95 cm and 2.05 cm, respectively for the 1.6 and 2.22 wt%"'U rods in a square array.This optimized array of 144" (365.76 cm)long fuel rods was modeled with KENO V.a with an infinite water reflector to determine the k,ir of the array for both enrichments.

For the 1.6 wt%~'U rods, KENO V.a obtained a k,~+1o of 0.87510+0.00059, well below the 0.95 limit.For 2.22 wt%"'U rods, the k,~+10 was 0.97697+0.00059 in unborated water and 0.80706+0.00056 with a moderator boron concentration of 450 ppm.The minimal concentration of boron in the moderator significantly reduces the reactivity of this accident.Based upon these results, with the minimum boron concentration of 450 ppm, the safety criterion is satisfied for the fuel rods that satisfy the spent fuel burnup versus enrichment curves for either Region 1 or 2.4.3.9 Acceptance Criteria for Criticality This criticality analysis evaluates Westinghouse-OFA

&esh fuel and Westinghouse Standard fuel in the Region 1 and 2 racks of the R.E.Ginna Nuclear Power Plant.A maximum nominal enrichment of 4.0 wt%~'U&esh fuel is justified for Region 1.Fresh fuel enrichments above 4.0 wt%'U to a nominal 5.0 wt%~'U are allowed with an appropriate number of IFBA rods loaded in the assemblies.

This is accomplished by a checker board loading plan with spent fuel loaded according to the curve in Figure 4.1-1.For Region 2, initial enrichments up to a nominal 5.0 wt%~'U may be loaded according to the loading curve illustrated in Figure 4.1-2.Both normal and accident conditions have been evaluated for these two regions.The accidents considered are: 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 353 1.A dropped assembly on top, beside, and into the racks.2.Rack movements for Region 1, 2, and the interface between Regions 1 and 2.3.A misplaced assembly for Regions 1 and 2.The analysis further demonstrates that the criticality criterion is not affected by the interaction of Region 1 and 2 racks under normal conditions.

Burnup is used as a mechanism to control the reactivity of the Region 1 and Region 2 storage racks.For Region 1, a nominal enrichment of 5.0 wt%~'U requires a minimum burnup of 29.4 GWd/mtU to be loaded in a checker board pattern with&esh fuel with reactivities less than or equal to that for nominal 4.0 wt%"'U fuel with no IFBA rods.The Region 2 racks require a minimum burnup of 47.25 GWd/mtU for a nominal enrichment limit of 5.0 wt%~'U.The values used to determine the minimum burnup as a function of initial enrichment account for the effect of manufacturing and fuel assembly tolerance effects on reactivity.

In addition, the tabulated minimum burnups listed in Tables 4.1-1 and 4.1-2 include a burnup'measurement'ncertainty of 5%.The evaluation of consolidated fuel containers demonstrates that the containers may be stored anywhere in Regions 1 and 2 following the loading requirements of that of the most restrictive rod in the consolidated container.

This applies to either completely filled, 358 rods, or partially filled containers.

4.4 SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION This section provides additional discussions about the evaluation of the KENO V.a bias and the procedure followed to generate the burnup versus enrichment curves.Section 4.4.1 describes the comparison between KENO V.a and experimental results and the evaluation of trends in the comparison.

A description of the facets involved with generating the loading curves including an illustration of the axial shape effect is provided in Section 4.4.2.4.4.1 KENO V.a Bias The KENO V.a bias is evaluated in this section.An examination of light water reactor critical experiments for low-enriched

~'U lattices indicates a trend in the bias related to the separation distance between assemblies.

A total of fifty-seven critical light water moderated, low-enriched fuel configurations are evaluated with KENO V.a and the 44 group cross section library.A trend of increased bias with the separation distance between fuel arrays is noted (see Figure 4.4-1)such that the bias reaches a maximum b,k of-0.0087+0.0026 (1.7630 uncertainty) with a 2.576" (6.543 cm)spacing between the fuel arrays (Table 4.4-1).Based upon this trend the biases for Region 1 and Region 2 as related to the separation distance of the edges of the assemblies in the racks are-0.0070+0.00096,k for Region 1 (1.46" or 3.7 cm separation) and-0.0056+0.0009 hk for Region 2 (0.65" or 1.64 cm separation), see Table 4.4-1.A brief description of the critical experiments, determination of the bias, and validation of the trend is provided in this section.4.4.1.1 Critical Experiments A total of fifty-seven critical experiments was evaluated with KENO V.a to determine the bias inherent in its methodology.

All experiments were conducted to simulate low-enriched, light-water reactor fuel arrays in storage pool configurations.

This includes both UO, and mixed oxide fuel compositions.

The experiments contain uranium enrichments

&om about 2.3 to 5.7 and plutonium 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 354 enrichments Rom 2 to 6 wt%.Rack geometry is simulated with variations on fuel array spacings and with interspersed absorber materials between the arrays.Thus, all these experiments are directly applicable to rack analyses.The experiments have been divided into four sets.The first examines a set of twenty-one critical configurations'erformed specifically for rack simulation for a single fuel enrichment.

The second is a series of sixteen additional UO, criticals"'overing a range of enrichments and conditions.

The third is a set of twelve mixed oxide criticals"" that are included to support analysis of spent fuel.The last set comprises eight other UOi critical configurations that have been approved for an international data base'~.This last set includes results from the MCNP Monte Carlo code"'nd KENO V.a with the 27 group cross section set.These other calculations

'rovide an independent verification of the results and trends for the 44 group KENO V.a results.The first set of benchmark cases are 21 experiments representing close proximity water storage of LWR fuel.The fuel enrichment for these experiments is 2.459 wt%.The configurations examined the eQects of fuel array spacing, soluble boron in the moderator, and interspersed absorbers between fuel arrays.The absorbers included B4C rods, stainless steel sheets, and borated aluminum sheets with four difFerent boron concentrations.

These experiments span the general range of applicability for storage rack calculations and thus form the base set for the bias determination.

Table 4.4-1 lists the calculated and experimental k,ir values plus the bias for this series of experiments.

For the group as a whole, the average bias is about-0.0056 with a standard deviation of about 0.0024.However, examination of the bias as a function of spacing indicates a trend in the data.Figure 4.4-2 provides a plot of the bias as a function of separation distance between fuel arrays.The data plotted includes both water gaps and cases with interspersed absorber materials, i.e., B4C rods and stainless steel and borated aluminum sheets.The trend of increasing bias is apparent in all cases.The trend appears to indicate that the bias will continue to increase as the spacing increases.

However, eventually the fuel arrays will be isolated from each other and the bias is expected to return to the zero spacing value.The International Handbook cases discussed later show this behavior for the water gap bias.The largest bias occurs for spacings between 6 and 7 centimeters and then returns to a value close to the bias at the zero spacing for a spacing of about 12 cm.Data for interspersed absorbers is being reviewed and is not available at this time.However, exainining the sparse data&om these experiments, seems to indicate that the spacing for the largest bias is dependent upon the amount of absorber present.The higher the amount of absorber material, the smaller the spacing for the minimum in the bias.This is most easily seen by reviewing the B4C rod cases which contain a large amount of absorber and comparing these with the various borated aluminum sheet cases.Note that the data for 0.4 wt%'U borated aluminum is suspect due to the large uncertainty in the boron content of the sheets.It also appears that the magnitude of the bias decreases as the absorber increases.

The variation of the spacing for the bias minimum and bias magnitude with the absorber content seems reasonable, since these materials increase the isolation of fuel arrays and tend to reduce the spacing required for full isolation.

These trends will be factored into the biases applied to the Ginna storage rack analyses.The next two sets of benchmark comparisons were performed to widen the range of applicability of the calculations.

The UO, critical experiments cover a wider range of enrichments and some additional absorber materials.

The KENO V.a bias for these sets is listed in Table 4.4-2.Since there was little spacing variation in these cases, the average bias is-0.0023+0.0025, indicating essentially no bias.No trend is noted relative to enrichment in these cases.The mixed oxide criticals 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 355

~~.t comparisons, Table 4.4-3, provide a bias relative to plutonium in fuel rods that is applicable to burnup credit.The cases primarily varied the lattice pitch and the effect of boron in the moderator.

No obvious trends are noted and the average bias of the set is-0.0023+0.0033.Thus, these cases extend the benchmarks to various enrichments and fuel mixtures without any indication of bias trends relative to these parameters.

The B&W critical data provides a good set for bench-marking methodologies for rack calculations.

However, the data stops at a spacing with a large bias and does not illustrate the expected reduction in the bias as the spacing continues to increase.The data obtained from the International Handbook."'upplies several spacing points beyond those from B&W for water between the fuel arrays.In addition, it provides comparisons of results from other analysis methodologies.

This data enables verification of the expected trend for larger spacings.Additionally, it provides independent verification of the calculational techniques.

Table 4.4-4 provides the results&om the Handbook and those calculated with KENO V.a using the 44 group cross section set.The Handbook critical experiments have a critical k,~of 0.9998.Results are provided from a)KENO V.a with the 27 groups SCALE set, and b)MCNP with the continuous energy cross section set.Figure 4.4-2 illustrates the trends in the data of Table 4.4-4.The figure shows substantial agreement for the trend with the edge-to-edge spacing among the different methods.However, the absolute biases differ.The MCNP results, with a continuous energy set, give the smallest bias, as would be expected from the cross section representation.

The 44 group set gives intermediate results both for the Handbook benchmarks and for the B&W experiments.

The 27 group set has the largest bias which illustrates the rationale for the migration to the 44 group set for criticality analyses.The figure shows a valley in the bias for spacings between six and eight centimeters.

As expected the bias decreases as the spacing increases beyond this range and seems to be approaching the zero spacing bias.Figure 4.4-3 shows plots of the 44 group KENO V.a results and a least square fit of the data.The fit curve clearly indicates the trend of the data with a valley around eight centimeters and a return to the zero spacing bias as the spacing increases beyond the valley.This trend will be considered for the biases applied to the Region 1 and 2 storage racks.The absorber material in both Region 1 and the replacement racks in Region 2 is borated stainless steel.The minimum boron content in the stainless steel is 1.7 wt%.The absorber material in the Type 1 rack is Boraflex with a boron content of about 34 wt%boron.The"B areal density of the BSS plates range&om about 0.006 to 0.007g/cm', the Boraflex sheet is about 0.02 g/cm, and that of the borated aluminum plates used in the experiment from about 0.0008 to 0.01 g/cm.Thus, the absorber content of the BSS and Boraflex is within, or near, the range of the experimental plates.In addition to the boron, the stainless steel in the BSS plates serves as a mild absorber.The bias associated with stainless steel plates was also evaluated with the experimental configurations.

Rather than try to relate the bias to a specific absorber density, the average of the biases for the interspersed B-Al and SS sheets is obtained at each spacing interval and a least square fit generated to allow estimation of the biases for the Regions 1 and 2 spacings.A review of the data indicated that consideration of only the B-Al sheets provided the largest bias, for conservatism the averages used for the least squares fit only included these data.The fitting equation is: I 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 356 where, y=-0.00348-0.00003s+0.00027s'0.00152s' isthebias,and s is the spacing in centimeters.

The edge-to-edge spacing between centered assemblies in Region 1 is about 1.46" (3.68 cm)and in Region 2 the spacing is about 0.65" (1.6 4 cm).Based on the above polynomial the bias for Region 1 is-0.0070 hk and for Region 2,-0.0056 b,k.The maximum standard deviation in the average value at the nearest experimental points to the actual spacings is taken as the uncertainty in the bias, 0.0009 in this case.These values will be used to include the uncertainty in the KENO V.a methodology into the criticality safety evaluation of the Ginna storage racks.4.4.1.2 CASMO-3/KENO V.a Benchmarks To provide assurance that CASMO-3 is consistent with KENO V.a, it is benchmarked against KENO V.a for selected critical configurations.

CASMO-3 is a two-dimensional code that allows an explicit model of a fuel region in the x-y direction with the implicit reflective boundary conditions on the outer surfaces.Thus, CASMO-3 does not have the geometrical capability to adequately model the critical experiment directly.Thus, an indirect benchmark is necessary.

This indirect benchmark is derived by modifying several critical configurations into a fuel region that can be modeled both by CASMO-3 and KENO V.a.These configurations provide the desired benchmark between KENO V.a and CASMO-3, and indirectly, with critical experiments.

The comparisons between CASMO-3 and KENO V.a for Region 1 and 2 rack models also an independent verification of the KENO V.a absolute results.Six critical arrangements'~

are chosen for this comparison from the benchmark cases described in the previous section.Table 4A-5 lists the configurations and significant information about the selected cases.Table 4.4-6 provides the results&om CASMO-3 and KENO V.a.These results show that the bias between CASMO-3 and KENO V.a is generally similar to the KENO V.a bias obtained&om the critical experiments.

The CASMO-3/KENO V.a differences exhibit about the same trends as the KENO V.a bias.The last column in Table 4.4-6 lists the sum of K,ir, the bias, and the uncertainty to give K.As noted this value is generally slightly greater than the CASMO-3 value.The comparisons between CASMO-3 and KENO V.a for Region 1 and 2 rack models also serve as a benchmark, as well as an independent verification of the KENO V.a absolute results.The comparison is shown in Table 4.4-7 and again shows excellent agreement between the two codes.Although the KENO V.a k,~value slightly underestimates the CASMO-3 result, application of the KENO bias and uncertainties provides the maximum k,irwhich exceeds the CASMO-3 result.Since all absolute values quoted for KENO V.a for the analysis have the bias applied, conservative results are obtained by use of KENO V.a rather than CASMO-3 values.4.4.1.3 KENO V.a Infinite to Finite Model Comparison The base analyses use models of the racks that are infinite in the x-y direction.

Due to the size of the rack regions this is generally a good assumption with some conservatism.

Table 4.4-8 which lists the hk between the infinite and finite models for each rack.The result for rack Type 1 illustrates the 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 357 k 4 slight conservatism in the model for a regular rack array.Rack Types 2 and 3 do not have BSS plates in the cells that face the pool walls and create a smaller storage region than Type 1.Thus, this comparison was performed to ensure that the infinite model is indeed conservative relative to an actual finite model.The results in Table 4.4-8 show that this is the case even with the BSS removed&om the edges.This comparison shows about a 0.5%b,k conservatism in the models for the BSS racks.4.4.2 Burnup Credit Methodology Typically a burnup credit analysis uses a uniform, average burnup distribution over the entire length'f the assembly.This distribution underestimates the burnup at the center of the assembly and overestimates the burnup at the top and bottom.To adequately utilize burnup credit the axial effects must be understood.

This requires that an estimate of the reactivity effects of the axial burnup distribution relative to a uniform distribution must be determined and appropriately applied to the results.Alternatively, the explicit axial distribution can be modeled in the KENO V.a calculation.

This removes the need for application of an axial burnup penalty.This analysis uses the latter method which is described in this section.This includes a description of the assumptions used to generate both the axial burnup profile and the number densities for the axial segments.This methodology for burnup credit is very similar to that already accepted by the U.S.Nuclear Regulatory Commission4.'0,4.i3,4.i6 4.4.2.1 Axial Profile Generation

.The axial effects have been found to vary with the amount ofburnup.Indeed in the range&om about 10 to 20 GWd/mtU, the use of a uniform axial shape provides conservative results.Also, for storage of fresh fuel adjacent to burned fuel, the use of a uniform axial burnup shape is conservative.

However,&om about 20 to 50 GWd/mtU, the axial burnup shape has a significant effect.To provide an estimate of the effect typical axial burnup shapes were obtained&om several irradiated assemblies of the Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, see Table 4.4-9.These covered both OFA and Standard assemblies with burnups ranging&om 10 to about 48 GWd/mtU.The selected assemblies covered a range of enrichments, axial blanket enrichments, core positions, and different cycles.The bulk of the data represented Westinghouse OFA assemblies with axial blankets from later cycles since these are, and will be, the most numerous assemblies.

However, data&om an ANF assembly of Standard Westinghouse design was also examined.This assembly did not have axial blankets and the axial shapes from this assembly were chosen as representative, and bounding for axial blanketed fuel.Figures 4.4-4 through 4.4-7 show a comparison of the normalized shapes for the examined assemblies.

The shapes were broken into 10 GWd/mtU ranges&om 10 to 50 GWd/mtU.A review of the figures show the curves are very similar over each region.The OFA assemblies with natural uranium blankets show higher burnups in all nodes except the top and bottom two nodes which contain axial blankets.Assembly'E60'ontains a 2.6 wt%~'U blanket and shows lower burnup in the central region than the assemblies with blankets of natural enrichments.

The non-blanket assembly'Q16'lso shows a lower central burnup especially in the important top and bottom three nodes.The axial shape from this assembly was chosen to provide the axial effects for this reason, i.e., the lower burnups in the lower and upper three nodes.Note that while the natural uranium blankets have lower burnups in the outer two nodes, these are blanket zones that are essentially dead relative to rack reactivity.

Thus, they can be ignored.The 2.6 wt%"'U assembly does have slightly lower burnup in the bottom node in the 10 to 20 GWd/mtU range.However, in the next two lower nodes and the three top nodes it is less than the non-blanket assembly.This behavior is ignored for 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 358 two reasons: first, the top nodes provide the most reactivity due to irradiation temperature effects, and second, in this region the axial eQects are minimal or nonexistent.

Thus, the axial profile data Rom assembly'Q16'as chosen as representative of the typical burnup profile for the Ginna core.Table 4.4-10 lists the relative axial profile obtained&om typical fuel cycle analyses for this assembly as a function of end-of-cycle burnup.Figure 4.4-8 provides a plot of the absolute burnup as a function of height for each cycle of irradiation and Figure 4.4-9 shows the relative distribution.

A previous analysis showed that a seven-zone axial model was sufFicient to represent the axial effects'".

This model explicitly represents the burnup in the top and bottom three nodes of the.twenty-three analytical nodes.The central 17 nodes are averaged together to provide a single central zone.The central zone average value may be modified slightly to maintain the relative burnup equal to 1.0 if the sum of all seven zones does not equal 1.0.This maintains the desired average burnup associated with the shape.Figure 4.4-10 illustrates the seven node model for the 40/50 GWd/mtU burnup range.Note that the KENO V.a model assumes a 144" active fuel height while most of the past and current fuel had a height of about 141".To accommodate the added height, the extra length is added to the central portion of the curve, as noted by the gap at the center of the seven zone shape in Figure 4.4-10.Similar seven zone models are obtained for the other burnup ranges.Table 4.4-11 lists the relative axial shapes for each range in the seven zone model with the midpoint height of each node.For the analysis for Region 2, burnups of 21, 34, and 45 GWd/mtU were required for 3, 4 and 5 wt%~'U initial enrichments.

The shapes for these burnups are just the product of the relative distribution times the average burnup.Table 4.4-12 lists the zone burnup values for the burnups examined in this analysis.These burnups are used to obtain the nuclide concentrations in each zone.4.4.2.2 Axial Profile Isotopic Concentration Generation CASMO-3 generates the isotopic concentrations for each segment of the axial profile.The axial fuel and moderator temperature distributions influence the plutonium buildup that occurs as a function of depletion.

A higher moderator temperature causes spectral"hardening" (a shift of the neutron energy spectrum to higher energy values)which increases conversion of~'U to~'Pu.Additionally, higher fuel temperatures cause Doppler broadening of the"'U resonance structure, also increasing

"'Pu production.

To capture this effect, mid-cycle average axial moderator and fuel temperature profiles were obtained for the Ginna core.These data were used to approximate the average temperature data for the seven axial zones in the model.In addition, since the axial burnup profile represents a cumulative axial power distribution, the relative axial burnup values were used to obtain the average power in each zone.Due to the similarity in the profiles, the 40-50 GWd/mtU range burnup profile was used to obtain the power distribution that was used for all ranges.The temperature data and the power data are used by CASMO-3 to deplete the fuel to the desired burnup for each initial enrichment and each axial zone.Table 4.4-13 lists the seven zone data for 3.0 wt%"'U initial enrichment and an average burnup of 21 GWd/mtU.The first table lists the input data for the CASMO-3 calculations.

The second set of tables provides the nuclide concentrations in for each zone in terms of atoms/barn-cm.

This data was used directly in KENO V.a for the evaluation at this enrichment and burnup.Similar data for 4.0 wt%/34 GWd/mtU and 5.0 wt%/45 GWd/mtU is listed in Tables 4.4-14 and 4.4-15.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 359 The isotopic concentration data was obtained by the following procedure.

A CASMO-3 hot full power depletion is performed to determine the isotopics for each axial segment at the appropriate burnup, fuel and moderator temperature.

These calculations are for Standard fuel assemblies without IFBA rods.A CASMO-3 calculation provides the base k;, for a fuel assembly with the shutdown isotopes at rack conditions.

A second CASMO-3 rack model calculates the k;with only the shutdown fuel pellet concentrations of"0,'U,"'U,'U, Pu,"'Pu,"'Pu, and'"Sm (xenon and iodine are eliminated in both rack models).Previous analyses have shown that the use of shutdown isotopics without xenon essentially provides the maximum reactivity after irradiation.

It provides conservative values when decay greater than about seven months is considered.

A small amount of"B is added to the fuel pin until the second CASMO-3 model k;, agrees with the first.Tables 4.4-13 through 4.4-15 list the concentrations with the"B equivalent.

In this manner, the added"B simulates the neutron absorption of the deleted isotopes for the KENO V.a model.A similar process is used to generate the isotopic concentrations for the cases that use a uniform assembly average burnup, e.g., for the Region 1 analysis.Tables 4.4-16 and 4.4-17 list data for assembly average burnups.Table 4.4-16 provides the concentrations for cases used to provide the auxiliary lines for the Region 2 curve at 5 wt%.These curves allow storage of 5 wt%'U initial enrichment assemblies with burnups of 38.5 and 52.2 GWd/mtU adjacent to each other.Note that for these curves a uniform distribution was used.However, it was corrected with the axial shape factor appropriate to the burnup range discussed in the next section.Table 4.4-17 provides the isotopic concentrations for the average burnups required for the Region 1 checker boarded burned fuel.4.4.2.3 Axial Reactivity Effects The axial burnup shapes are integrated into the models for Region 2 and thus the effects are explicitly considered in the results.However, it is instructive to evaluate the magnitude of the effect.In addition, this evaluation illustrates that the number of histories and distribution of the neutron start types are sufficient to'see'he effect.Table 4 4-18 lists the results of the evaluation for each rack type.The axial burnup distribution used to determine the base line for the Region 2 loading curve is used for this evaluation.

As noted&om the table, all the Region 2 racks have about the same axial effect.Note that for the 3.0 wt%~'U enrichment at 21 GWd/mtU burnup, the axial effect is almost nil, i.e., within statistical uncertainty.

Thus, the values may be plus or minus.This effect varies with burnup and ranges&om about 2%hk for the 40-50 GWd/mtU range to about 0.0%b,k for about 21 GWd/mtU range.Reviewing the rack Type 1 results in Table 4.4-18, which shows both the degraded and the normal condition of the rack, the effect is relatively insensitive to the absorber material in the rack.Due to the magnitude of the differences, it is apparent that the statistics of the KENO V.a cases are recognizing the different axial zones and their importance.

The Region 1, rack Type 3 results show a negative hk of about 0.5%.This confirms the assertion that for a fresh/burned combination, a'uniform axial distribution provides conservative results.However, as is apparent for Region 2 the effect is significant and must be factored into the final k,ir either implicitly, as is done here, or by a larger margin to the 0.95 safety limit.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 360 4\

4.4.2.4 Boraflex Degradation Model Margin The loading curves for rack Type 1 and Region 2 include margin for potential Boraflex degradation.

Table 4.4-19 lists the results of an assessment of the margin in the Boraflex degradation model.The uniform axial shape cases&om Table 4.4-18 for rack Type 1 with and without the degraded model are compared.The table shows that the degraded model provides a bk margin of 0.048 over the normal condition model.Thus, there is approximately a 5%margin in the loading curves for Region 2 to accommodate potential Boraflex loss.4.4.3 Westinghouse IFBA Documentation The following discussion of the IFBA credit was obtained Rom the previous licensing submittal'".

The results have been verified with the CASMO-3 code and remain unchanged for the current analysis.This verification also included verification of the infinite multiplication factor equivalencing.

The text that follows has been extracted without change from the previous licensing report.Table 7 and Figure 8 cited in the text are appended to the end of the text, as are references.

IFBA Credit Reactivity Equivulencing"Storage of fuel assemblies with nominal enrichments greater than 4.0 wlo U in the Region I spent fuel storage racks is achievable by means of the concept of reactivity equivalencing.

The concept of reactivity equivalencing is predicated upon the reactivity decrease associated with the addition ofIntegral Fuel Burnable Absorbers (IFBA)".IFBAs consist of neutron absorbing material applied as a thin ZrBz coating on the outside of the UO~fuel pellet.As a result, the neutron absorbing material is a non-removable or integral part of the fuel assembly once it is manufactured."Two analytical techniques are used to establish the criticality criteria for the storage of IFBA fuel in the fuel storage rack The first method uses reactivity equivalencing to establish the poison material loading required to meet the criticality limits.The poison material considered in this analysis is a zirconium diboride grBQ coating manufactured by Westinghouse.

The second method uses the fuel assembly infinite multiplication factor to establish a reference reactivity.

The reference reactivity point is compared to the fuel assembly peak reactivity to determine its acceptability for storage in the fuel racks."4.2.1 IFBA Requirement Determination"A series of reactivity calculations are performed to generate a set of IFBA rod number versus enrichment ordered pairs which all yield the equivalent K>when the fuel is stored in the Region 1 spent fuel racks.The following assumptions were used for the IFBA rod assemblies in the PHOENIXmodels:

1.The fuel assembly parameters relevant to the criticality analysis are based on the Westinghouse 14X14 OFA design (see Table I...for fuel parameters).

[editor'note: Table 1 is fully reproduced in Table 4.3-1].2.The fuel assembly is modeled at its most reaci'ive point in life.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 361 gl*Il~W 3.The fuel pellets are modeled assuming nominal values for theoretical density and dishing Paction.4.No credit is taken for any natural enrichment or reduced enrichment axial blankets.5.No credit is taken for any U'i or U i6in the fuel.6..No credit is taken for any spacer grids or spacer sleeves.The IFBA absorber material is a zirconium diboride (ZrBJ coating on the fuel pellet.Each IFBA rod has a nominal poison material loading of 1.67 milligrams B'er inch, which is the minimum standard loading offered by Westinghouse for 14x14 OFA fuel assemblies.

8.The IFBA B'oading is reduced by 5 percent to conservatively account for manufacturing tolerances and then by an additional 10%to conservatively model a minimum poison length of 92 inches.9.The moderator is pure water (no boron)at a temperature of 68'F with a density of 1.0 gmlcmi.10.The array is infinite in lateral (x and y)and axial (vertical) extent.This precludes any neutron leakagePom the array."Figure 8[ed.note: Figure 8 is fully reproduced at the end of this text]...shows the constant K>contour generated for the Region 1 spent fuel racks.Note the endpoint at 0 IFBA rods where the nominal enrichment is 4.0 w/o and at 64(IX)IFBA rods where the nominal enrichment is 5.0 w/o.The interpretation of the endpoint data is as follows: the reactivity of the fuel rack array when filled with fuel assemblies enriched to a nominal 5.0 w/o U'ith each containing 64(1.0X)IFBA rodsis equivalent to the reactivity of the rack when filled with fuel assemblies enriched to a nominal 4.0 w/o and containing no IFBAs.The data in Figure 8...is also provided on Table 7[ed.note: Table 7 is fully reproduced at the end of this text]...for the 1.0X 1.5Xand 2.0XIFBA rods."It is important to recognize that the curve in Figure 8...is based on reactivity

'equivalence calculations for the specific enrichment and IFBA combinati ons in actual rack geometry (and not just on simple comparisons of individual fuel assembly infinite multiplication factors).In this way, the environment of the storage rack and its influence on assembly reactivity is implicitly considered."The IFBA requirements of Figure 8...were developed based on the standard IFBA patterns used by Westinghouse.

However, since the worth of individual IFBA rods can change depending on position within the assembly (due to local variations in thermal flux), studies were performed to evaluate this effect and a conservative reactivity margin was includedin the development of the IFBA requirement to account for this egect.This assures that the IFBA requirement remains valid at intermediate enrichments where standard IFBA 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 362 C'I patterns may not be available.

In addition, to conservatively account for calculational uncertainties, the IFBA requirements of Figure 8...also include a conservatism of approximately 10%on the total number of IFBA rods at the 5.0 w/o end (i.e., about 6 extra IFBA rods for a 5.0 w/o fuel assembly)."Additional IFBA credit calculations were performed to examine the reactivity effects of higher IFBA linear B" loadings (1.5Xand 2.0X).These calculations confirm that assembly reactivity remains constant provided the net B'aterial per assembly is preserved.

Therefore, with higher IFBA B'oadings, the required number of IFBA rods per assembly'an be reduced by the ratio of the higher loading to the nominal 1.0Xloading.

For example, using 2.0XIFBA in 5.0 w/o fuel assemblies allows a reduction in the IFBA rod requirement Pom 64 IFBA rods per assembly to 32 IFBA rods per assembly (64 divided by the ratio 2.0X/1.0X).

"4.2.2 Infinite Multiplication Factov"The infinite multiplication factor, Kis used as a reference criticality reactivity point, and offers an alternative methodfor determining the acceptability offuel assembly storage in the Region I spent fuel racks.The reference Kis determined for a nominal fresh 4.0 w/o fuel assembly."The fuel assembly Kcalculations are performed using the Westinghouse licensed core design code PHOENIX-Pin~.

The following assumptions were used to develop the infinite multiplication factor model: The 8'estinghouse 14x14 OFA fuel assembly was analyzed (see Table 1[ed.note: Table 43-1]....for parameters).

The fuel assembly is modeled at its most reactive point in life and no credit is taken for any discrete burnable absorbers in the assembly.2.All fuel rods contain uranium dioxide at a nominal enrichment of 4.0 w/o U over the entire length of each rod.3.The fuel array model is based on a unit assembly configuration (infinite in the lateral and axial extent)in Ginna reactor geometry (no rack).4.The moderator is pure water (no boron)at a temperature of 68'F with a density of 1.0 gmlcm'."Calculation of the infinite multiplication factor for the 8'estinghouse 14x14 OFA fuel assembly in the Ginna core geometry resulted in a reference Kof 1.458.This includes a 1%dK reactivity bias to conservatively account for calculational uncertainties.

This bias is consistent with the standard conservatism included in the Ginna core design refueling shutdown margin calculations.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 363 "For IFBA credit, all 14x14 fuel assemblies placed in the Region I spent fuel racks must comply with the enrichment-IFBA requirements of Figure 8...or have a reference Kless or equal to 1.458.By meeting either of these conditions, the maximum rack reactivity will then be less than 0.95,...""BibliogrupIIy 11.Nguyen, T.Q.et.al.,"Qualification of the PHOENIX-P/ANC Nuclear Design System for Pressurized 8'ater Reactor Cores,"%CAP-I 1596-P-A, June 1988 PVestinghouse Proprietary).

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Rochester Gas&Electric Co.is expanding the spent fuel storage capacity at its Ginna plant through installation of high density storage racks in the spent fuel storage pool.The pool capacity will be increased in two phases.The initial phase will increase the pool storage capacity by 305 locations with the installation of ATEA Type 2 and 3 racks.The second phase, if implemented by RG&E, will increase the capacity by an additional 48 storage locations with the installation of ATEA Type 4 racks.As discussed in Section 1.1, the pool total storage capacity of the spent fuel pool will be increased&om its present capacity of 1016 to a total of 1369 locations with the implementation of'oth phases 1 and 2.The increased storage capacity of the spent fuel pool will result in increased decay heat loads.The efFect of the increased decay heat on the thermal performance of the spent fuel pool was determined for the final spent fuel pool configuration (both phase 1 and 2)at the maximum capacity.The required reactor hold-time based on conservative assumptions for the full core discharge schedule was determined using the existing heat removal capability of the spent fuel heat exchangers.

Pool heatup rates at the maximum pool capacity were calculated accounting for the displaced water volume.Local fluid conditions and maximum clad temperature at the most limiting location in the pool were verified as acceptable.

RG&E may elect to utilize fuel consolidation as a future means of increasing the spent fuel pool storage capacity over the present design.Local fluid conditions for the limiting location in the spent fuel storage pool, conservatively determined for normal storage, were demonstrated as bounding compared to those for consolidated fuel canisters positioned throughout the spent fuel pool.The following analyses for the thermal-hydraulic qualification of the spent fuel storage pool were performed for the ATEA Type 2, 3 and 4 racks: Calculation of Spent Fuel Decay Heat Loads~Bulk Pool Heat Up Rate (upon loss of pool cooling)~Local Pool Thermal Evaluations Calculation of local fluid and fuel clad temperatures Assessment of flow blockage on local fluid conditions Assessment of gamma heating on the fluid conditions in the inter-canister gaps~Impact of Pool Re-racking on Fuel Consolidation Limits The results of these evaluations demonstrating the acceptable thermal-hydraulic performance of the Ginna spent fuel pool with increased storage capacity follow.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 429 0

5.2 CRITERIA

The thermal-hydraulic analyses were performed in accordance with the requirements and guidelines set forth in the following:

OT Position for Review and Acceptance of Spent Fuel Storage and Handling Applications, Dated April 14, 1978 and revised January 18, 1979, (Ref.5.2.1), NUREG-0800 Standard Review Plan 9.1.3, Revision 1 (July 1981)and Standard Review Plan 9.2.5, Revision 2 (July 1981), (Ref.5.2.2),~A.G.Croft, RI-ev'd e V e e i n n e le i de,ORNL-5621,(Ref.5.2.3).

e a The thermal-hydraulic criteria include the following:

~Bulk pool does not exceed 150'F under any SFP loading criteria Local boiling does not occur in the hot assembly except for the condition of a complete inlet flow blockage Maximum clad temperature remains below saturation for all non-flow blockage cases Adequate cooling for consolidated fuel canisters is provided with the increased pool storage capacity 5.3 ASSUMPTIONS The maximum bulk fluid and clad temperatures for the Ginna spent fuel storage pool were calculated with the following conservative assumptions:

Maximized decay heat load as a result of bounding fuel enrichment, bounding burn-up and bounding number of assemblies discharged to the SFP, Instantaneous discharge of the fuel to the spent fuel pool afler a minimum reactor shutdown time of 100 hour0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br />s~Local hot channel peaking factor, F"~=1.75, used for peaking for the hot fuel assembly~Minimum water volume accounting for full pool storage capacity used for the calculation of the bulk pool heat-up rate 5.4 DISCUSSION OF SPENT FUEL COOLING The existing spent fuel cooling system at the Ginna plant consists of three cooling loops.The primary loop (loop 2)is made up of spent fuel pump B, spent fuel pool heat exchanger B and piping.The backup loops include installed loop 1 with spent fuel pool pump A, spent fuel pool heat exchanger A and piping, and skid-mounted loop 3 with skid-mounted spent fuel pool pump, spent fuel pool standby heat exchanger, piping and hoses.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 430 Loop 2 is designed to maintain the spent fuel pool water below 150'F with a design basis heat load of 16x10'tu/hr associated with a service water temperature of 80'F.Loop 1 and loop 3 are each designed to remove 7.93x10'tu/hr with a pool temperature of 150'F and service water at 80'F.Operated in parallel, they are capable of removing the design basis heat load.The source of service water for the SFP heat exchangers is Lake Ontario.No modifications to the existing SFP cooling system are planned as a result of the installation of the ATEA racks.The availability of three pumps, three heat exchangers and associated parallel flow paths in the Ginna SFP System provides adequate protection against any postulated single failures.Therefore, redundancy exists in the Ginna spent fuel pool cooling system to-ensure that full heat removal capability is available for the design basis heat load.Service water to the spent fuel pool cooling system is provided by lake water supplied by Lake Ontario.Since the lake water temperature varies Rom winter to summer, the potential heat removal capability of the SFP cooling system also varies.With cooler lake water temperature, the heat removal capability of the SFP cooling system increases.

Therefore, the necessary core shutdown required to ensure that the SFP temperature does not exceed its 150'F limit is a function of lake water temperature.

The required core shutdown times to prevent the SFP from exceeding the 150'F limit were analyzed for lake water temperatures of 40'F and 60'F as well as for the design lake water temperature of 80'F.5.5 SPENT FUEL POOL CAPACITY AND DISCHARGE SCENARIOS The following sections summarize the spent fuel pool capacity used as a calculational base and the discharge scenarios for the normal and full core offload.5.5.1 Spent Fuel Pool Capacity The discharge schedule is shown in Table 5.5-1.Beginning in 1997, a bounding 44 assembly batch discharge schedule based on an 18 month fuel cycle was assumed through the end of plant life.The discharge schedule listed in Table 5.5-1 results in a total spent pool inventory of 1879 in the year 2029.This postulated loading scheme is conservative for determining the maximum Ginna spent fuel pool heat load since the present Ginna operating license expires in the year 2009.Additionally, the 1879 fuel assemblies assumed to be loaded exceeds the 1369 fuel assembly storage locations available in the pool after installation of the ATEA Types 2, 3 and 4 racks.These extra fuel assemblies could be accommodated by performing fuel consolidation.

Presently, the Ginna fuel pool includes 11 fuel assemblies that have been consolidated and are stored in 8 fuel assembly locations.'dditionally, 2 fuel assembly locations are presently being used'to store non-fuel related hardware.5.5.2 Core Offload Scenarios Two core offload scenarios based on the core discharge schedule in Table 5.5-1 were used in the evaluation of the spent fuel pool.5.5.2.1 Normal Discharge Scenario The normal fuel storage scenario assumes that one reload batch is sequentially discharged from the core until space remains for one core offload.The newly discharged batch is assumed to have a decay time of 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> and the previously discharged batch has a decay time of 18 months consistent with Table 5.5-1.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 431 5.5.2.2 Full Core Discharge Scenario For a full core offload, one reload batch at a time is discharged from the reactor until vacant locations remain in the spent fuel storage pool for one batch plus one full core of fuel.Both beginning of cycle (BOC)and end of cycle (EOC)scenarios were investigated for the full core offload.For the BOC scenario, the plant is assumed to operate for 30 days prior to shutdown.The decay heat for the previously discharged batch is assumed to be the decay time for the 30 day operation plus the decay time for the full core prior to discharge to the SFP.No credit is taken for the decay time associated with the refueling outage duration for the previously discharged batch.For the EOC scenario, the decay heat for the previously discharged 44 fuel assembly batch is based on an 18 month irradiation time.For the discharged fuel assemblies, shown in Table 5.5-1, no additional decay time due outage duration was conservatively assumed to maximize the decay heat.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 432 Table 5.5-1 Ginna Spent Fuel Pool Inventory (Actual&Projected)

A comparison between ORIGEN2 and ASB 9.2 methodology is included in Section 5.11.5.6.1 Full Core Decay Heat Load For this evaluation, the core was assumed to operate at 102%of the rated 1520 MWt core power for 18 month cycles.A conservative flat full power history was used for the entire cycle length.Consequently, the reactor was assumed to operate at 102%power for the entire cycle length with no reductions in power which normally occur during a typical cycle.No credit was taken for nuclide decay (and corresponding reduction in decay heat)during outage periods and during fuel transfer (i.e., the assembly, batch, or core offload was assumed to occur instantaneously).

The maximum heat load resulting from a core offload was calculated at 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> after reactor shutdown.To ensure that conservative decay heats were obtained, the decay heat for burnups of 15, 17.5, and 20 GWD/MTU were calculated.

The 20 GWD/MTU burnup bounds the cycle length associated with an 18 month fuel cycle.In addition, a short irradiation period of 30 days, which corresponds to a cycle burnup of 1.1 GWD/MTU, was performed to investigate pool heat loads for a BOC core offload scenario.The resulting decay heat loads after 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> of decay were examined and the maximum value, which occurred after a burnup of 20 GWD/MTU, was used in this analysis.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 434

5.6.2 Single

Fuel Assembly Decay Heat Load The heat load for a single fuel assembly was also computed.Both average and peak assembly heat loads are required for analysis.The heat load was based on an eighteen month cycle length and 44 fuel assembly batch size was assumed for each reload outage.The power history of an individual fuel assembly has a significant effect on the decay heat prediction.

Typically,-fresh and once-burned fuel will operate above the average assembly power.This evaluation incorporated an assembly peaking of 1.35 for fresh fuel, 1.20 for once-burned and 1.00 for twice burned fuel.Calculations utilizing the decay heat load for an average fuel assembly were based on a'peak'verage fuel assembly operating at an assembly relative power of 1.35.This corresponds to a fresh fuel assembly in the reactor.The decay heat load for this'peak'ssembly after a shutdown time of 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> is greater than that for an assembly operating at the true core average power, i.e., having a 1.00 peaking factor.The hot, or design, fuel assembly decay heat load was obtained by conservatively applying the design enthalpy rise factor for the Ginna core, F"~>>=1.75, to the average assembly decay heat load.5.7 REQUIRED CORE DECAY TIMES The technical specification temperature limit for the Ginna spent fuel storage pool is 150'F.This temperature limit is achieved with the heat removal capability of the present SFP heat exchangers.

The SFP heat load must not exceed the heat removal capability of the existing SFP heat exchangers at a 150'F pool temperature.

In order to maintain the SFP bulk temperature below the technical specification limit, the fuel must be held in the core for a minimum shutdown time to ensure that the total SFP heat load is less than the heat removal capability of the existing Ginna SFP cooling system.Fuel may not be offloaded from the core, in any event, prior to a minimum shutdown time of 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> that is assumed for the radiological consequence analysis.The required shutdown time to maintain the bulk pool temperature less than the 150'F technical specification limit was determined for lake temperatures of 80'F, 60'F and 40'F.5.7.1 Single Batch Offload The decay heat load for a 44 fuel assembly batch was determined for batch average burnups of 15, 30, 45 and 60 GWD/MTU.The maximum spent fuel pool decay heat load, after a 100 hour0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> shutdown time, is 11.22x10'tu/hr.

This heat load includes the contribution due to all previously discharged batches, and occurred for the 15 GWD/MTU case.The contribution due to all previous discharged batches is 3.56x10'tu/hr.

Note that, in general, the long term decay heat load typically increases with increasing burnup.However, the 44 assembly batch modeled here utilized conservative peaking factors of 1.35 for a burnup of 0 to 20 GWD/MTU, 1.2 for a burnup of 20 to 36 GWD/MTU, and 1.0 for a burnup of 36 to 60 GWD/MTU.This modeling of a batch yielded a slightly higher decay heat load with 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> of decay after the 15 GWD/MTU burnup than did subsequent burnups with their reduced peaking factors.Thus, a conservative decay heat load was generated for the 44 assembly batch.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 435 The single batch core offload can be performed after the required 100 hour0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> shutdown time associated with the radiological requirement.

The total spent fuel pool decay heat load at 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> is well within the 16x10'tu/hr heat removal capability of the SFP heat exchangers at the 80'F maximum lake water temperature.

Consequently, a normal 1/3 core offload after 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> decay will never result in the SFP approaching its design temperature limit of 150'F.5.7.2 Full Core Offload A full core offload scenario with a full inventory of spent fuel assemblies (1879 fuel assemblies assuming some consolidated rod canisters) results in the highest predicted decay heat loads.A comparison of decay heat loads for the full core offload at 30 days of operation and for core average burnups of 15, 17.5 and 20 GWD/MTU showed a conservative value was calculated for the 30 day core operation.

This is because the once and twice burned fuel assemblies were not decayed for any cycle outage time before the full core offload outage.For the 30 day core operation, the total decay heat load on the SFP after 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> is 21.7 MBtu/hr.Since this decay heat load exceeds the 16 MBtu/hr design limit heat removal capacity for 80'F lake water temperature, additional shutdown is required before initiating the full core offload at the design lake temperature scenario.The required delay time prior to completing the full core offload is obtained from a comparison of decay heat load against the SFP heat exchanger heat removal capability for the various lake water temperatures to ensure that the 150'F SFP limit is not exceeded.The required core delay times ensuring that the SFP design limit temperature of 150'F is not exceeded for the full core offload scenario with a full inventory of spent fuel assemblies is summarized below for lake temperatures of 40'F, 60'F and 80'F: j"::.'.";:-;;.';:;.'::l.-',;:150,::>FjTech';':Sp'e'c';i'::;,':,:;:::,:.':X'll 40 60 80 24.6 20.4 16.0 21.7 20.4 16.0 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> 132 hours 280 hours0.00324 days <br />0.0778 hours <br />4.62963e-4 weeks <br />1.0654e-4 months <br /> 5.8 LOCAL FUEL BUNDLE THERMAL-HYDRAULICS The spent fuel pool at RG&E's Ginna plant, shown in Figure 5.8-1, is divided into two regions.Region I consists of flux type racks and Region II consists of high-density type racks.Two different rack designs are contained in Region II.Part of Region II contains ATEA Type 2 borated stainless steel racks;the remaining racks in Region II are the existing boraflex design (not removed as part of the pool re-rack).The existing high-density boraflex racks have ATEA Type 4 borated stainless steel side racks located between them and the pool wall in the gap.The ATEA side racks are located on the North and South walls of the SFP.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 436 Figure 5.8-1 Spent Fuel Pool Remaining Rocks Are Region 2~~~'~~~,,~:+o l:~.+r~ir Region 1 I~J~~~++nn r QtVAIOR A/If>+++++++++++++++EXISPNG RACKS+++Thermal-Hydraulic Models++CASK AREA~4~~ie~ic r'~~~~~~~3 The following table identifies the rack designs found in the Ginna SFP.3A,B,C,D,E ATEA BSS Flux Trap ATEA BSS High Density 2A,B Existing High Density Boraflex 4A through 4F (Type 4 are side racks)ATEA BSS High Density-Borated Stainless Steel-Letter denotes a particular array of canisters on a specific rack type.BSS 3A, etc.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 437 S.S.1 Natural Circulation in the Spent Fuel Pool Storage Canisters When fuel assemblies offloaded from the core are placed in the spent fuel pool into the canisters, cooling occurs by natural circulation.

The density difference between the hot fuel assemblies and the cooler bulk pool fluid result in a thermal head.Pressure drop due to frictional losses in the downcomer, resistances due to rack leveling feet, inlet to the fuel canisters, bundle skin&iction, fuel assembly (upper and lower)nozzles and grids and other losses in the flow path balance this buoyancy force.

The natural circulation cooling is analyzed to demonstrate that adequate cooling occurs in the hottest fuel assembly in the absence of inlet and outlet flow blockages preventing local boiling and maintaining the peak clad temperature below saturation.

The hydraulic model consists of a row of fuel assemblies extending from the downcomer wall to the center of the pool.The pool water is assumed to flow downward between the periphery of the wall adjacent to the rack modules, then laterally in the region between the rack module bases and the pool floor, then upward through the fuel assemblies (Figure 5.8-2).A conservative pool-rack gap geometry is used to model the downcomer.

This is conservative because flow is assumed to communicate with the canisters from the downcomer only which is modelled as a flow path only one row wide.In reality, flow reaches the canisters from other downcomer regions besides the downcomer segment modelled.For the limiting Region I location, the assembly power is for a peak average assembly having a peaking factor of 1.35 (fresh fuel)and is from the most recently discharged batch having 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> of decay for the radiological requirement.

The fuel assembly axial variation of power was modelled with a 1.55 chopped cosine shape;the results agreed very closely with those obtained using a uniform power shape.The single row of fuel assemblies are modelled initially to establish the pressure drop boundary condition which is then imposed on the hot fuel assembly.All canisters in the row are conservatively assumed to contain a fuel assembly with the minimum decay time.A rack leveling foot is conservatively placed below each of the fuel assemblies as an added resistance to flow.In reality, a representative row selected for evaluation consists of approximately 12 or more fuel assemblies and has at most 4 or 5 support feet.Once the pressure drop across the row of average fuel assemblies is calculated, the calculation is repeated.The pressure drop boundary condition obtained from the row of average fuel assemblies is imposed on the hottest fuel assembly for the region being analyzed.The hottest fuel assembly has a peaking factor of F"~,=1.75.A rack leveling foot is placed under the highest powered assembly.The placement of the rack leveling foot under the hot assembly increases the pressure drop across the assembly and minimizes the flow to the hottest assembly.The inlet temperature of the water entering the downcomer and flowing in the region between the rack base and pool floor is assumed to be at the maximum pool bulk temperature of 150'F.Minimum rack-to-wall dimensions in the downcomer were modelled in order to maximize downcomer resistance thereby minimizing fuel assembly flow.The fuel clad temperature for the hottest fuel assembly was calculated with a heat transfer coeQicient for free convection.

An additional resistance of 0.001 ft~-hr-'F/Btu was used for potential fouling on the fuel rods.Due to the various canister designs present in the Ginna spent fuel pool, a single canister-type model was not used.The final pool configuration, upon completion of Phase II, required the application of three separate models to analyze the following geometries:

Region I type 3 racks, Region II type 2 racks, and Region II with the existing boraflex and adjacent type 4 side racks.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 438 0

Each of the models followed the general approach described above.The calculations were performed with Framatome Cogema Fuel's FSPLIT code (Ref.5.7.1).FSPLIT is a PC based code which can be used for pressure drop/flow solutions for networks with water, heavy water, incompressible fluids, or gasses.The networks can be closed loop or simulated open loop.Forced flow and natural circulation problems can be analyzed with FSPLIT.The FSPLIT code has been previously used supporting licensing submittals.

Figure 5.8-2 Natural Circulation Flow Path Downcomer Region Fuel Canisters Flow Path" Support Foot 5.8.2 Effects of Gamma Heating in the Flux Trap Regions and Inter-Canister Gaps The natural circulation in the flux trap regions (type 3 racks)and intercell gaps (type 2 racks)is driven by the pressure drop across the major flow path.Water enters the bottom of the canisters and flows upwards in two parallel paths.The major flow path is through the fuel assemblies and a secondary path is in the gaps between canister types where it is heated by the gamma heat produced in the stainless steel.This analysis verifies the absence of localized boiling in these secondary paths.5.8.2.1 Region I Type 3 Flux Traps Water enters the Region I flux traps through a rectangular opening at the top of the base plate.It flows upwards in the region between the canisters and exits at the level of the top of the canisters as shown in Figure 5.8-3.The top of every other type 3 canister has a lead in edge which forms a funnel that facilitates the insertion of offloaded fuel and which effectively blocks a significant part of the exit flow area along the canister width.This configuration is shown in Figure 1.3-4.Flow exits the flux trap region at the corner intersections of four canisters which are not obstructed by the funnel feature and rejoins the main flow.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 439

'"i"":: Region II Type 4&Boraflex 1.75 3600 150 177 Saturation temperature at the top of the rack is 238.9'F based on a minimum SFP water height of 23 feet above the top of the racks.As with the ATEA Type 2 racks, the results reported in Section 5.8.1 for the Region I, type 3 rack are bounding due to the longer decay time associated with the fuel assemblies stored in Region II of the Ginna spent fuel pool.5.9.4 Natural Circulation in the Region I Flux Trap Region The pressures obtained from the Region I type 3 average fuel assemblies were applied as the boundary condition to obtain the flow in the Region I flux traps.The circulation in the flux trap regions is driven by the pressure differences in the fuel cells because the flow in these major paths is much higher.The gamma heating occurs in the stainless steel and water and is deposited directly into the flux trap region.For the analysis configuration described in Section 5.8.2, the following results were obtained for the Region I flux traps.The reported flow is contained in one gap between two adjacent canisters in Region I.Flow (per gap): 38 ibm/hr Outlet Temperature:

5.9.5 Natural

Circulation in the Region II Inter-Canister Gaps The pressures obtained from the Region II type 2 average fuel assemblies were applied as the boundary condition to obtain the flow in the Region II flux traps.Pressures were selected at the height of the inlet to the inter-canister gap above the base plate and approximately 12 feet downstream where the flow&om the gaps re-enters the main stream inside the canister.As with the Region I flux traps, the circulation in the inter-canister gaps is driven by the pressure differences in the fuel cells because the flow in these major flow paths is much higher.The gamma heating occurring in the stainless steel and water is deposited directly into the inter-canister gap region.For the analysis configuration described in Section 5.8.2, the following results were obtained for the Region II inter-canister gaps.The reported flow is contained in one gap between two adjacent canisters in Region II.Flow (per gap): 12 Ibm/hr Outlet Temperature:

184'F 5.9.6 The Effect of Flow Blockage The partial blockage of a canister outlet was analyzed assuming a dropped fuel assembly was laying on top of the rack.Utilizing the conservative assumption that the end flitting of the dropped fuel assembly obstructed the exit flow from the hottest assembly in Region I, the exit flow area was reduced by approximately 85%.The resulting bulk fluid temperature was determined to be 233'F which is below saturation (238.9'F).

The peak clad temperature for the outlet blockage is 244'F.The peak clad temperature is slightly above the saturation temperature.

Using a nucleation criterion&om Lahey (Ref.5.9.6), it was shown that bubbles may be present on the cladding surface but that local conditions would not support bubble growth.The heat flux necessary for active nucleation is approximately seven times greater than the hot fuel assembly heat flux.Consequently, adequate cooling of the canister is still maintained.

The second scenario that was investigated was the complete blockage of the fuel canister inlet.The complete blockage of a canister inlet prevents natural circulation flow&om removing the decay heat.In the event of such a blockage, evaporative cooling removes the decay heat from the canister.Assuming steam flow exists in the hottest fuel assembly canister (F"~=1.75), a counterflow flooding correlation of Wallis demonstrated that the liquid water entering the canister was sufficient to replenish the boil-off and prevent dry-out.As long as the required mass flux of liquid (needed to match the steam rate)is less than the flooding limit, adequate cooling of the assembly is assured even if the canister inlet is completely obstructed.

The counter-current flooding calculation was performed for minimum flow areas of one-half (0.139 fl)and one-fourth (0.070 fP)of the minimum fuel assembly tube region flow area.The minimum tube region flow area is 0.279 ft'.It was conservatively assumed that the fluid pressure at the fuel assembly exit was atmospheric and no credit was taken for subcooling of the liquid entering the top of the assembly.The results indicated that a safety margin of over 40 exists at the one-half area reduction and over 7 for the one-fourth area reduction.

The clad temperature was calculated to be approximately 10'F above the water saturation temperature.

5.9.7 Natural

Circulation in the Consolidated Fuel Canister The evaluation of cooling the consolidated fuel canister is identical in principle to the fuel assembly analysis.The decay heat load is much lower, based on a 5 year decay time.The local pressures&om the Region I average fuel assembly analysis were applied as boundary conditions with a rack leveling foot placed below the consolidated fuel canister.The consolidated fuel canister contained two fuel assemblies worth of rods.Decay heat for this analysis was selected by comparing the decay heat of peak average fuel assemblies after a 5 year decay having burnups of 15, 30, 45 and 60 GWd/mtU.The decay heat for a fuel assembly having 60 GWd/mtU was found to be bounding and was used for this evaluation.

The result for the consolidated fuel canister follows: Flow: 120 ibm/hr Outlet Temperature:

222'F Peak Clad Temperature:

231'F RGB'ay, at a future date, increase the capacity of the Ginna spent fuel storage pool through consolidation.

This evaluation assessed the impact of consolidated fuel canisters on the local pressure results&om the Region I analysis.Using the Region I thermal-hydraulic model, an analysis was performed to obtain the pressure drop boundary condition as was done for the row of average fuel assemblies.

Consolidated fuel canisters having consolidation rates of 2:1 and 1:1 were modelled.The results indicated that both configurations of consolidated fuel canisters would result in higher local pressure drops than were determined for the row of fuel assemblies.

Applying these local pressures across the hottest fuel assembly as a pressure drop boundary condition would result in increased flow to the hottest assembly compared to the design results obtained with the fuel assemblies.

These evaluations indicate the thermal-hydraulic conditions determined with fuel assemblies in the fuel canisters in both Regions I and II remain bounding with increasing numbers of consolidated fuel canisters.

With increasing numbers of consolidated fuel canisters, additional flow would be diverted to the hottest fuel assembly resulting in reduced bulk fluid and clad temperatures for the hottest assembly.5.10 LOSS OF THE SPENT FVEL COOLING SYSTEM The spent fuel pool temperature heat-up rate has been determined for a complete loss of the spent fuel heat removal system.No credit is taken for heat loss through the pool walls, evaporative cooling from the pool surface or convective cooling to the ambient air.The thermal inertia of the pool was determined by summing the contributions of the racks, fuel assemblies, the net pool water volume, and the SFP liner.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 447 The heat-up rates are calculated for the time it takes the pool to heat from the 150'F technical specification limit temperature to the design limit for the SFP, 180'F.Values are reported for both the pool configuration with fuel assemblies and for complete consolidation.

Complete consolidation places two fuel assemblies in a consolidated fuel canister placed in every location of the spent fuel pool.The table summarizes the heat-up rates for varying heat loads as a function of the lake water temperature.

Backup heat removal systems consisting of the original SFPCS and the portable skid mounted unit are available in the event of a failure of the primary SFPCS.The use of these backup systems provide heat up times to reach the 180'F structural integrity limit temperature greater than those listed in Table 5.10-1.The original SFPCS can be made operational in 45 minutes which is considerably less than the minimum time of 3.4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> listed in Table 5.10-1 for full consolidation with an 80'F lake water temperature.

After 45 minutes of heatup, the pool temperature would be 156.5'F for a heat up rate of 8.71'/hr for full consolidation.

The increase in water temperature would then drop to 4.4'F/hr after 45 minutes.An additional

would be available for repair or to place the skid mounted unit into operation before the pool water temperature reaches 180'F.The additional time of 5.3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> is greater than the 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> required to bring the skid mounted system into operation.

Similar results are obtained for lake water temperatures below 80'F.Thus, adequate time and cooling capacity are available to prevent the SFP water temperature

5.11 COMPARISON BETWEEN ORIGEN2 RESULTS AND ASB 9-2 METHODOLOGY ORIGEN2 does not use empirical-based methods to calculate decay heat but tracks the buildup and decay of the individual fission products within the reactor core during operation pnd shutdown.ORIGEN2 also includes the effect of element transmutation from neutron capture, both in fissile isotopes and fission products.Because ORIGEN2 performs a rigorous calculation of decay heat, it was used in the calculations for decay'eat in this analysis.To provide additional information, a comparison of the full core decay heat power resulting from ORIGEN2 and that resulting from the Branch Technical Position ASB 9-2 for a core operating time of 15 GWD/MTU is shown below for several times after shutdown.Table 5.11-1 Comparison between ORIGEN2 and ASB 9-2 Results for a full core offload (121 Fuel Assemblies, no pool inventory) with 15 GWD/MTU burnup 24 100 600 2400 8041 5050 2351 1094 9104 5537 2544 1101 1.132 1.096 1.082 1.006 This comparison shows that for the time of interest in this analysis, 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br />, that the ASB 9-2 method predicts the decay heat for a full core to be within 10%of ORIGEN2.5.12 REFERENCES 5.2.1 OT Position for Review and Acceptance of Spent Fuel Storage and Handling Applications, Dated April 14, 1978, and revised January 18, 1979.5.2.2 NUREG-0800 Standard Review Plan 9.1.3, Revision 1 (July 1981), and Standard Review Plan 9.2.5 Revision 2 (July 1981), (Ref.5.2).5.2.3 A.G.Croff, 2-evi e e Ve in e ak'de e e ORNL-5621, (Ref.5.3).5.6.1 P.L.Holman, et.al., e w traeR BAW-2095, November 1989.(FCF internal document).

6.0 RADIOLOGICAL

EVALVATION The radiological safety analysis"'I was performed in accordance with General Design Criteria 61 of 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix AI"I to evaluate hypothetical accidents involving fuel damage to Regions 1 and 2 and dose rates due to the increased capacity.The analysis addressed:

(1)offsite dose consequences at the site boundary (EAB)and at the low population zone.boundary (LPZ)from these limiting hypothetical

'accidents: (a)rack drop accident (b)cask drop or tip accident (c)gate drop accident (d)consolidated canister drop accident (e)fuel handling accident (f)tornado missile accident (2)dose rates at the surface of the spent fuel pool and through the pool's concrete walls for the purposes of occupational exposure.The analysis also addresses solid radwaste and gaseous releases.From the standpoint of offsite doses, the important aspect of the proposed re-racking is that the pool will continue to be divided into two regions, Region 1 which requires fuel to have decayed a minimum time of 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br />, and (2)Region 2 which requires fuel to have decayed for a minimum time of 60 days.These two regions are illustrated in Figure 6-1.Due to the two separate decay times, accidents occurring in either area can have varying radiological consequences.

6.1 ACCEPTANCE

CRITERIA 6.1.1 Offsite Dose Exposure Reference offsite dose values for evaluating hypothetical accidents involving fission product releases are specified in 10 CFR Part 100"" and are 25 rem to the whole body and 300 rem to the thyroid&om iodine exposure.Both values are applicable to the exclusion area boundary (EAB)and the low population zone boundary (LPZ).Section 15.7.4.of the Standard Review Plan"'I (SRP)specifies acceptance criteria of 25%of 10 CFR Part 100 guidelines'or postulated fuel handling accidents.

However, the Ginna Station was designed and built prior to the SRP and is not required to meet the SRP limits.A previous fuel handling accident analysis showed an offsite dose of 96 rem thyroid""+'hich has been previously accepted by the NRC as being"well within" 10 CFR Part 100 limits.1 Section 15.7.4.IV states that a plant's facilities are acceptable if reasonable assurance is provided that the calculated offsite radiological consequences of a postulated fuel handling accident are well within the 10 CFR Part 100 exposure guidelines.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 451

6.1.2 Occupational

Dose Exposure Occupational exposure dose limits are specified in 10 CFR Part 20~j and are further controlled by plant procedures.

The recommended dose rate that shall not be exceeded in accessible spaces adjacent the spent fuel pool is given in ANSVANS 57.2~"j and is 2.5 mrem/hr to any persons occupying those spaces.The rate is specified for when the pool is at its design fuel inventory and at the minimum design water depth.6.2 OFFSITE DOSE CONSEQUENCES The following six hypothetical accidents potentially resulting in releases of fission products were evaluated:

a)b)c)d)e)f)rack drop accident cask drop or tip accident gate drop accident consolidated canister drop accident fuel handling accident tornado missile accident 6.2.1 Rack Drop Accident Installation and removal of the racks (heavy loads)will require use of the auxiliary building's 30 ton crane hook, which meets the single failure proof requirements of NUREG-0612~

j for carrying heavy loads (see UFSAR Ch.9.1.4.3.1)"'".

In addition, during the re-racking, installation and removal procedures will prevent transport of racks over spent fuel.Thus, an accident involving the release of fission products from a rack drop accident is not plausible, and the offsite radiological dose consequences need not be determined for this accident.6.2.2 Cask Drop/Tip Accident Insertion and removal of a spent fuel cask will be conducted using the auxiliary building's 30 ton crane hook, which meets the single failure proof requirements of NUREG-0612 for carrying heavy'oads (see UFSAR Ch.9.1.4.3.1).

In addition, during the removal and insertion of the cask, plant procedures and crane interlocks will prevent transport of the cask over spent fuel.Thus, an accident involving the release of fission products from a cask drop or tip accident is not plausible, and the offsite radiological dose consequences need not be determined for this accident.6.2.3 Gate Drop Accident The existing lifting mechanism for the spent fuel pool gate (to transfer canal)is not single failure proof.However, RG&E will modify the lifting mechanism to make it single failure proof in accordance with NUREG-0612 to prevent accidental dropping of the gate, which is considered a heavy load.This action will prevent potential fuel damage and the subsequent release of fission products.Thus, the oQsite radiological dose consequences need not be determined for this accident.6.2.4 Consolidated Canister Drop Accident A consolidated canister can contain all of the fuel rods from two assemblies and is considered a heavy load per NUREG-0612 criteria.There will be administrative control for movement of the canisters in the spent fuel pool.The canisters will be lifted using a single-failure proof crane and a 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 452 single-failure proof lifting system and will be handled in accordance with the guidelines on NUREG-0612 with regard to limiting the chance of an unacceptable heavy load drop.This action will prevent potential fuel damage and the subsequent release of fission products.Thus, the offsite radiological dose consequences need not be determined for this accident.6.2.5 Fuel Handling Accident The dose models and methodology for calculating the thyroid and whole-body doses at the EAB and LPZ due to a fuel handling accident inside the auxiliary building are described in Section 15.7.3.2 of the UFSAR.The proposed re-racking of the Ginna SFP has not affected any assumptions or'nputs (including source terms)used in the fuel handling accident as described in the UFSAR.The height of the Region 1 racks will remain the same as those currently installed, and it has been shown (UFSAR 15.7.3.1.4) that if a dropped fuel assembly impacts a stored assembly, the fuel rod cladding of the impacted assembly would not fail.Therefore, the current analysis for this accident as documented in the UFSAR remains valid and applicable.

The offsite dose consequences for a fuel handling accident occurring in the spent fuel pool are: 0-2 hour thyroid 0-2 hour whole body 14 0.31 0.88 0.02 6.2.6 Tornado Missile Accident Since Region 1 racks are to be replaced with ATEA-designed racks, the radiological dose consequences of the tornado missile accident in Region 1 must be re-evaluated.

The dose models used to calculate the offsite thyroid and whole body doses are identical to the models used in the fuel handling accident analysis inside the auxiliary building (see section 15.7.3.2 of the UFSAR).The thyroid dose was calculated using the following equation: Dose(rem)=PA-B DCF X I g I where A;=X/Q=B DCF;iodine activity(Ci) released from auxiliary building for isotope I the 0-2 hour atmospheric dispersion factor at the site boundary and the 0-8 hour atmospheric dispersion factor at the low population boundary breathing rate (3.47 x 10~m'/sec)adult thyroid inhalation dose conversion factor (rem/Ci)for iodine isotope I The external whole body gamma radiation dose was calculated using the following semi-infinite cloud equation: X Dose(rem)=0.25 gE I 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 453 where 0.25 EY;A;=X/Q=units conversion factor[(rad-m3-disintegration)/(Ci-MeV-sec)]

to convert[(Ci-sec-MeV)/m']

to rads (or rems since quality factor is 1.0)average gamma ray energy (MeV/disintegration) for isotope I noble gas activity (Ci)released from the auxiliary building the 0-2 hour atmospheric dispersion factor at the site boundary and the 0-8 hour atmospheric dispersion factor at the low population boundary Note that 0.25 x EY;is the whole body dose conversion factor.Since the pool is divided into two regions, it is possible that the hypothetical tornado missile, which is considered to be a 1,490 lb wooden pole, 35 ft in length and 13.5 inches in diameter (see UFSAR 9.1.2.7), could impact and damage the fuel in either region.The ATEA racks are being designed to replace the existing Region 1 racks and will have the same height as the current Region 1 racks.It has been determined in a separate analysis (see Section 3 of this report)that the resulting damage from the stated tornado missile to the ATEA-designed racks would be the assembly of direct impact and immediately adjacent assemblies for a total of nine damaged assemblies.

Since Region 1 is to contain freshly off-loaded fuel with a minimum of 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> of decay whereas Region 2's minimum decay time is 60 days, Region 1 damage will provide limiting dose consequences.

Freshly oF-loaded fuel is to be stored in a checkerboard pattern.To ensure that freshly off-loaded fuel is not stored in adjacent rack cells, the Region 1 racks will be loaded in a checkerboard pattern with fuel from Region 2 before off-loading fresh fuel.Upon impact from the hypothetical tornado missile, the maximum damage to the Region 1 ATEA racks will be nine cells or nine assemblies.

The worst case configuration would be five freshly off-loaded assemblies and four Region 2 assemblies.

It was conservatively assumed that all assemblies had a peaking factor of 1.2.Additional assumptions and inputs are shown in Table 6A-1 in Appendix 6A.The resulting offsite dose consequences are shown below in Table 6.4-1.For comparison, the dose consequences resulting&om the tornado missile accident occurring in Region 2 and damaging nine fuel assemblies (see UFSAR 9.1.2.7)were also calculated and are shown in Table 6.2-1.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 454 Table 6.2-1 Offsite Radiological Consequences of a Hypothetical Tornado Missile Accident Tornado missile accident in Region 1 (100 hrs decay)0-2 hour thyroid 0-2 hour whole body 40 0.19 20 0.093 Tornado missile accident in Region 2 (60 days decay)0-2 hour thyroid 0-2 hour whole body 0.51 8.1E-4 0.25 4.0E-4 6.3 OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE The Ginna Station Radiation Protection Staff and Procedures are currently adequate for supporting this major operation.

The areas of potential concerns are documented in procedures.

These include but are limited to: the risk of significant airborne activity, the protection of the divers and the workers from inadvertent and unplanned exposures, and the documentation of the dose from this campaign.Work will be controlled by the Ginna Station RWP, and tracked using the automated electronic dosimetry program.This allows a very rapid update of the worker's doses as well as the total person-rem associated with the rerack.Personnel traffic and equipment movement will be monitored and controlled to minimize contamination and radioactive waste generation, and to ensure that the work is in keeping with the ALARA dose minimization philosophy.

Divers will have multiple electronic and TLD dosimetry to ensure that correct monitoring of the doses is achieved.To support this, area radiation monitors will be installed into the spent fuel pool to anticipate any radiological changes.Gaseous releases will be monitored at the pool by a Continuous Air Monitor which will be Noble Gas and Iodine capable.The plant effluent radiation monitoring system will also be available to monitor these conditions.

Ginna Station performed a rerack in 1984-1985 and the lessons learned were reviewed and will be applied to the upcoming project.As a result, we expect this to reduce the total exposure associated with the rerack from 14 Person-Rem in 1984-1985 to a range of 8 to 12 Person-Rem in 1998.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 455 While offsite dose consequences are calculated for accident scenarios, there should be no significant releases to the atmosphere or receiving waters as a result of the rerack.Any releases which do occur should be well within the regulatory limits.All of the Radiation Protection Professional Staff are Board Certified by the American Board of Health Physics (Parts 1 and 2).As a result, they have a high degree of training and experience to deal with developing situations.

Due to the proposed increase in spent fuel capacity, the dose rates at the outer surface of each concrete wall of the spent fuel pool and the dose rate at the pool surface were calculated.

The spent fuel pool wall thicknesses are shown in Figure 6.2.The dose rates were calculated using the discrete ordinates transport codes, ANISN"'", and DORT"'".ANISN is essentially a one-dimensional version of the two-dimensional DORT code and generally yields slightly more conservative results than the DORT code.The DORT code was used to verify the ANISN results.The macroscopic material cross sections were generated using the BUGLE-93"" microscopic cross section library.The source terms for both codes were generated based upon:~>pool at full capacity~>fuel with a burnup of 60 GWD/MTU~~fuel with 100 hours0.00116 days <br />0.0278 hours <br />1.653439e-4 weeks <br />3.805e-5 months <br /> of decay.The resulting dose rates at locations of interest are shown in Table 6.3-1.All dose rates at the outer surfaces are small with the exception of the south wall, which has a dose rate of 101 rem/hr.This dose rate is not a concern, however, since the south wall faces the ground at elevations spanning the heights of the fuel assemblies.

At elevations above the fuel, the concrete is nearly six feet thick and at this outer surface it becomes the north wall of the decontamination pit.During normal operations, personnel working in the fuel storage area are exposed to radiation from the spent fuel pool.Operating experience has shown that the area radiation dose rates, which originate primarily from radionuclides in the pool water, are generally 1.0 to 2.0 mrem/hr.Radionuclide concentrations typical of those found in pool water are shown in Table 6.3-2.During fuel reload operations, the concentrations might be expected to increase due to crud deposits spalling Rom spent fuel assemblies and to activities carried into the pool&om the primary system.However, experience to date has not indicated a major increase as a consequence of refueling.

6.4 SOLID

RADWASTK Spent resins are generated by the spent fuel pool purification system.The frequency for changing the resins is between two to three years.The floor of the spent fuel pool will be cleaned before any work and after each of the old Region 1 racks is removed.Appropriate work practices and the cleaning of the spent fuel pool floor will reduce the generation of spent resins by the purification system.It is not possible to separate out the activity of the spent fuel pool resin from the resin in the spent resin tank.Recent resin activity is shown in Table 6.4-1.Operating experience after the 1985 modification indicates that the increased storage capacity will not result in a significant change in generation of solid radwaste (disposal of the existing Region 1.racks immediately after the.installation is discussed separately in Section 6.6).There is no expected additional man-rem burden from the solid radwaste generated due to the increased capacity of the spent fuel pool.Table 6.4-1 Radionuclide Analysis Report-Resin Activity, from the Spent Resin Tanks NON-TRANSURANIC Co-58 Cs-137 Cs-134 Co-60 Mn-54 C-14 Tc-99 I-129 H-3 Sr-90 Ni-63 Fe-55 Sb-125 pCi/gm 4.63 15.04 1.29 13.83 1.01 1.27<LLD<LLD 1.28 0.13 27.70 24.90 6.69 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 458 Table 6.4-1 Radionuclide Analysis Report-Resin Activity, from the Spent Resin Tanks Continued TRANSURANIC Po-238 P0-239, 240 PU-241 Cm-242 Cm-245/244 0.014 0.008 0.70 0.019 0.020 Resin Volume=14or 0.4 m'LD=lowest level of detection 51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 459

6R7 CONCLUSIONS Of the six limiting hypothetical accidents evaluated only two, the fuel handling and tornado missile accidents, result in the release of fission products to the environment.

The offsite thyroid and whole body doses calculated for the exclusion area boundary and low population zone boundary are less than the acceptance criteria.Therefore, it can be concluded that in the event of these accidents, the proposed re-racking of the Ginna spent fuel pool does not adversely affect the health and safety of the public.The increase in storage capacity does not adversely affect the dose rates at the pool surface or at other locations of interest nor will it adversely affect solid radwaste production and gaseous releases from the auxiliary building.

'ofF-the-shelf'tems, which are to be used as safety-related products and services, but where a specific Quality Assurance control appropriate for nuclear applications cannot be imposed in a practical manner, a receiving inspection and/or tests are performed and shall meet the acceptance criteria.These instructions are subject to the document control provisions.

Prior to placing an order with a new'upplier, an evaluation is conducted by Quality Assurance personnel and appropriate engineering and/or procurement personnel.

Such an evaluation may include an audit and is conducted in accordance with applicable FTI and/or their subcontractor's Quality Assurance Program.7.2.8 Identification and Control of Materials, Parts, and Components Identification requirements are established in Quality Assurance programs and are specified as necessary in the procurement documents for safety-related products and services.Identification and control procedures assure that identification is maintained on the item or on records that are traceable to the item to preclude use of incorrect or defective items.Identification of items can be traced to appropriate documentation such as design documents, procurement documents and/or inspection records.Identification of items is verified and documented prior to release of the item for further use.7.2.9 Control of Special Processes Established procedures are maintained to provide appropriate control over special processes for safety-related products and services.The processes that are controlled as special processes are the following:

the process where direct inspection is impossible or disadvantageous; and processes where the results are highly dependent on the control of the process or the skill of the operator, or both.Examples of these processes are welding, casting, and explosive forming.The special process procedures and certification of qualified personnel are maintained under document control.Special processes are performed by qualified personnel and accomplished under prescribed procedural controls.Recorded evidence of verification is maintained.

'I 7.2.10 Inspection Procedures are established that control manufacturing activities of safety-related products and services.These procedures provide control for the selection and identification of required inspection in a quality plan identifying the inspections to be performed, their location in the manufacturing process and the mandatory'Hold Points'equired by various organizations (i.e., Quality Assurance, the customer).

This document is either prepared and/or approved by the Quality Assurance organization having the responsibility for the item to be inspected.

7.2.11 Test Control Measures are established to control the testing of safety-related products and services.These measures include identification of required testing, development of procedures, a means of assessing the adequacy of tested items, and designation of responsibility for performing the various phases of the testing activities.

Tests required during manufacturing are identified in the Quality Plan of the item.The measures established for the control of special processes include a provision for identifying the necessary qualification tests.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 470 The test results are documented, evaluated, and their acceptability determined by a qualified, responsible individual or group.Modifications, repairs and replacements are tested in accordance with the original test or appropriate alternatives.

Test program requirements are incorporated as appropriated in purchase orders and will be reflected in the Quality Plan.Supplier testing activities are subject to auditing and monitoring for compliance during the surveillance activities.

7.2.12 Control of Measuring and Test Equipment FTI maintains the means of controlling measuring and test equipment used on safety-related products and services.Programs were developed for considering such attributes as inherent stability, purpose of use, desired accuracy, and the degree of usage.Measuring and test equipment are identified and traceable to the calibration test data and for other required documentation.

The complete status of all items under the calibration system including personal acceptance gages, is recorded, maintained and controlled.

7.2.13 Handling, Storage, and Shipping Procedures are established to control cleaning, packaging, shipping, storage and handling of safety-related products and services.Where required, these activities are accomplished by appropriately trained personnel.

The procedures include the control of cleaning, handling, storage, packaging, shipping and preservation on materials, components, and systems in accordance with design specification requirements to preclude unacceptable damage, loss, or deterioration by environmental conditions.

The identification controls include considerations for identification of inspection, use, personnel training and qualification, auditing, non-conformance, and other appropriate requirements.

These procedures may be in various forms, such as manufacturing procedures, shipping instructions, drawings, manufacturing routing sheets, cleaning specifications, and procedural training booklets.7.2.14 Inspections, Tests, and Operating Status Procedures are established to indicate the inspection, test and operating status of safety-related products and services during fabrication, installation and testing.These procedures control the application and removal of status indicators through the use of inspection control cards, shop travelers, or other documents.

These procedures also control sequence changes and the identification of non-conforming items.The procedures document the sequence of required tests, inspections, and other safety-related operations.

7.2.15 Non-Conforming Materials, Parts, or Components Procedures are established to control the identification, documentation, segregation, review and disposition of non-conforming safety-related products and services.They include notification of affected organizations if disposition is other than scrap.These procedures identify individuals or groups who are authorized to dispose of and approve non-conformance and describe the segregation and/or control of non-conforming items to prevent inadvertent use.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 471 Documentation identifies the non-conforming items, describes the non-conformance, the disposition of the non-conformance, including reinspection requirements, and includes documented approval of the disposition.

When non-conforming items are repaired or otherwise made suitable for their designed use, they are inspected and tested in accordance with the original inspection and test requirements or acceptable alternatives.

The Quality Assurance Department is responsible for the review and approval of decisions proposed by Engineering.

7.2.16 Corrective Action Procedures are established that provide corrective actions for safety-related products and services.These procedures include the initiation and documentation of corrective actions to preclude recurrence of significant conditions adverse to quality.Implementation of corrective action is verified by responsible individuals or organizations and is documented to close out the corrective action.Corrective action processing involves participation of Quality Assurance.

These decisions are documented.

For significant conditions adverse to quality, the cause and corrective actions taken are documented and reported to management for review.Non-conformance reports are generated.

These non-conformance reports are reviewed to determine the need for corrective action and are analyzed for trends.The results of these trend analyses are provided to management.

7.2.17 Audits Procedures are established that provide a comprehensive system of Quality Assurance Program audits of activities affecting the quality of safety-related products and services.Audits are performed by qualified audit personnel using written procedures or checklists designed to provide an objective evaluation of the Quality Assurance Program and its effective implementation.

Audits are planned and conducted by the quality organization responsible for its Quality Assurance Manual.Activities of the quality organization itself are audited by qualified auditors assigned by the General Management, having no direct responsibilities in the area to be audited.A written report that documents the audit results and corrective action is prepared by the team leader and distributed to the management of the organization being audited.The corrective actions to be proposed by the organization responsible for the finding are reviewed by the, quality organization or by the team leader (when the quality organization was the audited area).Verification of corrective action (including re-audit of deficient areas, where appropriate) is performed and documented.

Provisions made for preparation, performance, reporting, and closing out of suppliers'udits are similar and meet the same requirements.

Audit schedules are implemented in accordance with the Quality Assurance Manual.These audits ensure that procedures and activities comply with the overall Quality Assurance Program and provide a comprehensive independent verification and evaluation of quality-related procedures and activities.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 472 S.O ENVIRONMENTAL COST/BENEFIT ASSESSMENT 8.1 NEED FOR INCREASED STORAGE CAPACITY The U.S.Department of Energy (DOE)has statutory and contractual obligations to accept Ginna spent fuel beginning ln 1998.RG&E, in considering its capacity needs, assessed that the DOE would not be ready to accept spent fuel in 1998.This assessment has been confirmed by recent letter from DOE dated December 17, 1996, in which the DOE notified RG&E that it will not start acceptance of Ginna spent fuel in 1998.Early in January 1997, the DOE released a draft proposal outlining a three-phase process for private firms to accept and transport waste from civilian reactors.According to the proposal, there would be two phases prior to operation of a Federal repository.

The estimated duration of the.phases is several years beyond 1998, subject to the DOE meeting the schedule for award of the contracts and Congress designating a Federal storage site.The DOE proposal, and its associated uncertainties, further confirms RG&E's need for increased storage capacity beyond 1998 to accommodate the Ginna spent fuel prior to operation of the Federal repository.

Table 5.5-1 shows the schedule of refueling outages to the end of license in September 2009.Additional discharges were conservatively incorporated beyond September 2009 for the purpose of determining a bounding decay heat load.The bounding decay heat load is based on an inventory of fuel rods in the spent fuel pool not to exceed the number of rods contained in 1,879 intact fuel assemblies (179 fuel rods/assembly x 1,879 assemblies=336,341 fuel rods).The current spent fuel pool inventory is as follows: (a)782 spent fuel assemblies (intact), (b)8 consolidated rod canisters and 2 consolidated hardware canisters (from 11 intact fuel assemblies),1 fuel rod storage basket, (d)5 storage locations with non-fuel components, and (e)1 storage location not available for storage, for a total of 799 storage locations being occupied.The current licensed capacity is 1,016 fuel assemblies.

Projected spent fuel discharges are conservatively estimated at 44 spent fuel assemblies during each of the projected refueling outages.Based on the current inventory and projected spent fuel discharges, Ginna loses the capability to discharge a full-core into the spent fuel pool in September 2000.S.2 ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION COSTS The construction cost for the proposed reracking, including engineering, escalation, and allowance for funds used during construction is estimated at$6 million.S.3 ALTERNATIVES TO INCREASED STORAGE CAPACITY Fuel Assembly Consolidation Fuel assembly consolidation involves separation of the fuel rods from the fuel assembly hardware (grids, guide tubes, and nozzles).The nuclear industry, including RG&E, has conducted several programs over several years to demonstrate that rods can be consolidated with up to a ratio of 2 to 1 (rods&om two fuel assemblies are stored in one canister).

Rod consolidation to that ratio has been demonstrated to be achievable.

51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 473 Utilities have also undertaken programs to consolidate assembly hardware.The programs have not achieved the desired consolidation rate of 10:1 (hardware from ten fuel assemblies are stored in one canister).

Vendors have developed advanced consolidation machines to address lessons learned from the programs.These machines have not been demonstrated yet.At present, there is a degree of uncertainty with respect to the consolidation rate of hardware.The economics of consolidation is highly dependent on the consolidation rates for fuel rods and hardware.With additional demonstiation programs, fuel consolidation has the potential to be a strong alternative to building an Independent Storage Facility (ISFSI).RG&E has prepared this Licensing Report to allow future storage of consolidated spent fuel as an alternative to an ISFSI.At present, increasing the capacity of the spent fuel pool by reracking is a better alternative (lower cost, lower uncertainty).

Independent Spent Fuel Storage Facility (ISFSI)Constructing an ISFSI to increase capacity is not cost-effective compared with increasing capacity by reracking the spent fuel pool.There is a large fixed cost for constructing the facility and procuring the ancillary equipment for storing a limited number of storage casks.Because of this fixed cost, the cost of the ISFSI for the equivalent number of storage locations is more than 3 times the cost per location of reracking the spent fuel pool.Shipment to another Reactor Site Shipment of spent fuel to other non-RG&E reactor sites would require an increase in the storage capacity at those sites to accommodate Ginna spent fuel assemblies.

Additional capacity at non-RG&E sites would have to be designed to store Ginna 14x14 spent fuel assemblies.

In addition, utilities at those sites may charge storage fees separate from the cost of the increased capacity.The proposed reracking is the most cost-efFective of all storage alternatives to increase capacity at the Ginna site.By modifying the spent fuel pool at Ginna, there are no additional costs associated with transportation to another site, modifications to accommodate 14x14 assemblies, and potential storage fees.Other Alternatives Permanent shutdown of Ginna because of lack of storage capacity for spent fuel was not a viable alternative.

The costs of a permanent shutdown are significantly higher than the cost of reracking the spent fuel pool.8.4 COMMITMENT OF MATERIAL RESOURCES The material resources utilized in the spent fuel reracking are described in Section 1.0.These include primarily austenitic stainless steel as a structural material and borated stainless steel as a neutron absorber.The requirement for austenitic stainless steel for the reracking is a negligible amount of world production.

The production ofborated stainless steel can be accommodated by manufacturers in the U.S., Austria, Germany, and the Czech Republic.Levels of production ofborated stainless steel can be adjusted to meet significantly higher demands.51-1258768-01 Ginna SFP Re-racking Licensing Report Page 474 The additional capacity in the spent fuel pool does not result in a permanent commitment of water, land, or air resources.

The increased capacity will utilize the existing area of the spent fuel pool.The proposed additional storage capacity in the spent fuel pool will not significantly foreclose the alternatives available with respect to any other licensing actions designed to ameliorate a possible shortage of spent fuel storage capacity.8.5 HEAT RELEASED TO THE ENVIRONMENT The heat removal capability of the spent fuel pool cooling system will remain unchanged as discussed in Section 5.4.After a shutdown, the full core will decay in the reactor vessel prior to movement to the spent fuel pool.The total heat load Rom the spent fuel assemblies, including a full core discharge, will remain within the limits of the existing spent fuel pool cooling system (Section 5.4).The heat released to the environment from this modification is bounded by existing heat loads from normal operation.
