==1.0 INTRODUCTION==
In response to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) request for additional information (RAI) on Duane Arnold's relief request (MLl 7069Al 72 dated March 7, 2017) based on American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Code Case (CC) N-702 [I], this calculation addresses Sections A.3 and A.4 of BWRVIP-241 Appendix A[4]. The Code Case allows reduction of in-service inspection from 100% to 25% of all nozzle blend radii and nozzle-to-shell welds every 10 years, including one nozzle from each system and pipe size, except for feedwater (FW) and control rod drive (CRD) return nozzles. Technical documents BWRVIP-108 [2, 3] and BWRVIP-241 [ 4] provide the basis for the code case, but only consider 40 year plant operation. To extend the applicability of Code Case N-702, a probabilistic fracture mechanics (PPM) evaluation, consistent with the methods ofBWRVIP-108 and BWRVIP-241, is performed to ensure that the probability of failure (PoF) remains acceptable. The NI (recirculation outlet) nozzles are identified as the bounding nozzles when fluence is not considered in BWRVIP-241 [4]. The evaluation consists of two parts: Finite Element Model (FEM) Stress Analysis and Probabilistic Fracture Mechanics (PPM) Analysis. The FEM stress analysis was previously performed for a separate DAEC project calculation [5], but new path stress results at the locations of interest have been generated. This calculation package documents the new path stress results as well as the PPM analysis. 2.0 OBJECTIVE The objective of the evaluation documented in this calculation package is to perform a plant specific analysis of the DAEC recirculation outlet (NI) nozzles to extend applicability of the existing reliefrequest to 60 years of operation. 3.0 METHODOLOGY This evaluation considers the nozzle-to-shell weld and nozzle blend radius on the Duane Arnold NI nozzles per Reference [3] and [ 4] and confirms that the nozzle still meets the acceptable failure probability considering the bounding fluence at the end of the PEO. The probability of failure expressed in this calculation is equivalent to the through-wall cracking frequency. The acceptance criterion limits the difference in probability of failure per year due to the low temperature over pressure (LTOP) event to be no more than 5xl o-6 when changing from essentially 100% in-service inspection to 25% inspection for the PEO. In this analysis, the conservative case of zero inspection for the first 40 years with 25% inspection for the PEO is used. If the resulting probability of failure per year due to a postulated LTOP event (including 1x10-3 probability ofLTOP event occurrence per year [3, pg. 5-13]) is less than 5x10-6, then the inspection reduction based on Code Case 702 can be extended to 60 years. File No.: 1701150.301 Revision: 2 Page 4 of21 F0306-01R3 SJ Structural Integrity Associates, 3.1 Fatigue Cycles The thermal transients and number of cycles were obtained from Reference [6]. The number of cycles used in the PFM evaluation for the 10-year inspection interval is shown in Table 1. Transients were grouped into four groups based on severity, with the transients listed in bold font being the bounding transient in each group. 3.2 Probabilistic Fracture Mechanics Evaluation The probabilistic evaluation is performed for the case of 25% inspection for the extended operating period (with zero inspection coverage conservatively assumed for the initial 40 years of operation). For the nozzle blend radius region, a nozzle blend radius crack model from Reference [14] is used in the probabilistic fracture mechanics evaluation. For this location and crack model, the applicable stress is the stress perpendicular to a path defined 90 degrees from the tangent drawn at the blend radius. For the nozzle-to-shell weld, either a circumferential or an axial crack, depending on weld orientation, can initiate due to either component fabrication (i.e. considering only welding process) or stress corrosion cracking. The probability of failure for a circumferential crack is less than an axial crack, due to the difference in the stress (axial versus hoop) and the influence on the crack model. However, this probabilistic fracture mechanics evaluation for the nozzle to vessel shell weld considers both circumferential and axial cracks (depending on weld orientation). An axial elliptical crack model with a crack aspect ratio of a/l = 0.5 is used in the evaluation for the nozzle-to-shell weld. The inspection probability of detection (PoD) curve from BWRVIP-05 [9, Table 4] is utilized with a ten-year inspection interval. The calculation of stress intensity factor is at the deepest point of the crack. The approach used for this evaluation is consistent with the methodology presented in BWRVIP-05 [9]. A Monte Carlo simulation is performed using a variant of the VIPER program [10]. The Monte Carlo method can be used to solve probabilistic problems using deterministic computation. A mean value, standard deviation, and distribution curve as defined in the random variables summary (Table 2) defines a set of possible inputs and their probabilities of occurring. Using this domain of possible inputs, a new set of inputs for each simulation are generated for use in determining whether the nozzle will fail using conventional deterministic fracture mechanics methodology. This is repeated 2 million times. The number of simulations in which the nozzle is determined to fail divided by the number of simulations run gives the probability of failure. The VIPER program was developed as pait of the BWRVIP-05 effo1t for Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) reactor pressure vessel (RPV) shell weld inspection recommendations. The software was modified into a separate version, identified as VIPERNOZ, for use in this evaluation. The detailed description of the methodology incorporated in the VIPER/VIPERNOZ program is documented in References [9] and [3]. File No.: 1701150.301 Revision: 2 Page 5of21 F0306-01R3 SJ Structural Integrity Associates, Inc.rs; The modified software for this project is identified as VIPERNOZ to distinguish from the original VIPER software, and is verified on a project specific basis [8] to ensure the modifications made to the VIPER software are fully quality assured. 4.0 DESIGN INPUTS The plant specific input is described below. Section 4.1 presents the inputs modeled deterministically as constants while Section 4.2 describes the probabilistic treatment of inputs considered to be random variables (RV) in the VIPERNOZ code. 4.1 Deterministic Parameters Table 3 summarizes the dimensional and operational inputs used in the N-702 evaluation [7, 6]. Subsections 4.1.1 through 4.1.2 describe the more detailed input parameters used for in service inspection (ISI) interval, stress distributions and fatigue cycles, respectively. 4.1.1 In-Service Inspection ln this analysis, the conservative case of zero inspection for the first 40 years with 25% inspection for the PEO is used. The probability of detection (PoD) distribution function associated with inspection is shown in Table 4 [11]. 4.1.2 Stresses Stresses due to vessel pressure and thermal transients were determined in a previous calculation [5]. From the results of that calculation package, new through wall stress distributions are generated for use in the N-702 evaluation. Figure I shows the locations and orientations of these new through-wall stress paths. For vessel pressure, an internal pressure of l,000 psig was applied to the inside surfaces of the RPV and NI nozzle FEA model. Per Reference [6], the axisymmetric model has the effect of modeling the cylindrical RPV as spherical, which requires a correction factor to account for the 3-D effects of two intersecting cylinders. As calculated in Reference [6], the calculated pressure stress for the DAEC axisymmetric model needs to be multiplied by 2.572/1.5 = 1.715. The maximum cyclic stress ranges for the four considered transients, based on a linearized through wall stress distribution on the new paths, are identified. Figure 2 through Figure 4 show the distributions of the stress component acting normal to the crack plane (e.g. hoop or axial depending on the Path location) for the unit pressure, full power thermal expansion (steady state first load step of transient analysis) and the SCRAM transient, respectively. Details of the analysis can be found in [5]. 4.2 Random Variables Random variables (RV) used in the N-702 evaluation are summarized in Table 2. Subsections 4.2.l through 4.2.5 describe the more detailed input parameters used for SCC Initiation, SCC Growth and fatigue crack growth respectively. File No.: 1701150.301 Revision: 2 Page 6 of21 F0306-0IR3 e Structural Integrity Associates, Inc.@:. 4.2.1 Material Chemistry The weld chemistries for the Nl nozzles and nozzle to vessel welds are presented in Table 2 along with the standard deviation and distribution used in the PFM evaluation. 4.2.2 Fluence. The bounding nozzle fluence for extended operation is listed in Reference [18]. The Nl6 nozzle has the highest fluence for both the nozzle blend and nozzle to shell weld. Therefore, the Nl 6 fluence values shown in Table 2 are used for analysis. 4.2.3 SCC Initiation The cladding stress corrosion crack (SCC) initiation model in the VIPERNOZ program is a power law relationship. Since there is no cladding specific SCC initiation data, the cast stainless steel SCC data in a BWR environment is used as specified in Reference 9, Section 8.2.2.2, and used in References 3 and 4. This model has the form; where: T = time, hours cr = applied stress, ksi The residual plot shows that a lognormal distribution produces the best fit for the data. The lognormal residual plot with the linear fit of the data is shown below: where: 4.2.4 SCC Growth <D = (x -cr) I&#xb5; cr = data mean <l> = 0.9248x -0.0003 &#xb5; = data standard deviation X = In (Tactua1/T predicted) The SCC growth model in VIPERNOZ program is also a power law relationship [12]. The relationship used is; da = 6.82*10-12 (K)4 dt where: da/dt = stress corrosion crack growth rate, in/hr (1) (2) (3) File No.: 1701150.301 Page 7 of21 Revision: 2 F0306-01R3 e Structural Integrity Associates, Inc.rt:. K = sustained crack tip stress intensity factor, ksi\iin The residual plot shows that a Weibull distribution produces the best fit for the data. The Weibull residual plot with the linear fit of the data is shown below: Y = 0.9085x -0.3389 (4) where: y =In (In (1/ (1-F) )) F = cumulative distribution from 0 to 1 X =In ((da/dt) actual I (da/dt) predicted) 4.2.5 Fatigue Crack Growth The fatigue crack growth data for SA-533 Grade B Class 1 and SA-508 Class 2 (carbon-molybdenum steels) in a reactor water environments are rep011ed in Reference [13] for weld metal testing at an R-ratio (algebraic ratio of Kmin/Kmax, "R") of 0.2 and 0.7. To produce a fatigue crack growth law and distribution for the VIPERNOZ software, the data for R= 0.7 was fitted into the form of Paris Law. The R= 0.7 fatigue crack growth law was chosen for conservatism. The curve fit results of the mean fatigue crack growth law is presented with the Paris law shown as follows: where da = 3.817*10-9 (M)2.921 dn a = crack depth, in n =cycles LiK = Kmax -Kmin, ksi-in&deg;*5 (5) A comparison to the ASME Section XI fatigue crack growth law in a reactor water environment is documented in Reference [11] and it shows a reasonable comparison where the Section XI law is more conservative on growth rate at high LiK. Using the rank ordered residual plot, it is shown that a Weibull distribution is representative for the data. The Weibull residual plot with the linear curve fit of the data is shown below: y = -0.3712 + 4.15x where y = ln(ln(l/(1-F)) x = ln((da/dn)actuatl(da/dn)mean) File No.: 1701150.301 Revision: 2 (6) Page 8 of21 F0306-01R3 e Structural Integrity Associates, Inc.CB: F = cumulative probability distribution 5.0 STRESS RESULTS AND FATIGUE CYCLE LOADINGS The stress analyses for the nozzle-to-shell weld and the nozzle blend radius for the Nl nozzle were performed in Reference [5]. Two through-wall paths are selected, one at the location of the weld between the RPV and nozzle and the other at the blend radius location of the nozzle, as shown in Figure 1. For the thermal transients considered, only the maximum or minimum through-wall linearized membrane plus bending stress profiles that produce the largest stress ranges for thermal fatigue crack growth are used in the evaluation. Example minimum and maximum through wall stress distributions for the Loss of Feedwater Pumps transient is shown in Figure 4. Weld residual stresses (WRS) are assumed present in the nozzle-to-shell welds. The WRS distribution at the nozzle/shell weld is assumed to be a cosine distribution through the wall thickness with 8 ksi mean amplitude and 5 ksi standard deviation. Figure 5 shows the assumed cosine distribution and the 3rd order polynomial fit used in the evaluation for Path2. No WRS is present in the nozzle blend radius region. 6.0 ASSUMPTIONS The following assumptions used in the evaluation are based on previous BWRVIP development projects. Details of each assumption are provided. 1. Flaws are assumed to be aligned parallel with the weld direction as justified in BWRVIP-05 [9]. 2. One stress corrosion crack initiation and 0.1 fabrication flaws is assumed per nozzle blend radius as justified in BWRVIP-108NP [3] and BWRVIP-108 SER [2]. 3. One stress corrosion crack initiation and one fabrication flaw is assumed per nozzle/shell weld as justified in BWRVIP-108NP [3]. 4. The NRC Pressure Vessel Research Users' Facility (PVRUF) flaw size distribution is assumed to apply as justified in the W-EPRI-180-302 [11] repo1i. 5. The weld residual stress distribution at the nozzle/shell weld is assumed to be a cosine distribution through the wall thickness with 8 ksi mean amplitude and 5 ksi standard deviation as justified in BWRVIP-108NP [3]. 6. Upper shelf fracture toughness is set to 200 ksiv'in with a standard deviation of 0 ksiv'in for irradiated material consistent with BWRVIP-108 [2]. 7. Standard deviation of the mean Kie is set to 15 percent of the mean value of the Kie as justified in BWRVIP-108 SER [2]. 8. Zero inspection coverage conservatively assumed for the initial 40 years of operation. 7.0 RESULTS OF ANALYSIS The reliability evaluation is presented using plant specific inspection coverage. The probabilities of failure (PoF) per year due to the limiting LTOP event with 25% inspection for the extended operating term File No.: 1701150.301 Revision: 2 Page 9of21 F0306-0IR3 e Structural Integrity Associates, Inc.@:. (with zero inspection coverage for the initial 40 years of operation) are summarized in Table 5. The PoF per year for the nozzle blend radius and the nozzle-to-shell weld due to LTOP events are both less than the Sx10-6per yearNRC safety goal from Reference [15].
 
==8.0 CONCLUSION==
S The probability of failure per reactor year for the nozzle-to-shell-weld and nozzle blend radii in the Duane Arnold NI nozzles are below the acceptance criterion of 5 x I o-6 per year. Since this analysis considered the bounding nozzle geometry (NI), additional thermal cycles for the period of extended operation, and the bounding nozzle fluence (N 16) at the end of the period of extended operation, the NI nozzles and all other applicable nozzles are qualified for reduced inspection using ASME Code Case N-702 through the end of the period of extended operation.
