==SUMMARY==
OF RESULTS: Intergranular separations in low alloy steel heat-affected zones under austenitic stainless steel weld claddings were detected in SA-508, Class 2 reactor vessel forgings manufactured to a coarse grain practice, and clad by high-heat-input submerged arc processes.
BAW-10013 (issued in 1972) contains a fracture mechanics analysis that demonstrates the critical crack size required to initiate fast fracture is several orders of magnitude greater than the assumed maximum flaw size plus predicted flaw growth due to design fatigue cycles. The flaw growth analysis was performed for a 40 year cyclic loading, and an end-of-life assessment of radiation embrittlement (i.e., fluence at 32 EFPY) was used to determine fracture toughness properties.
The report concluded that the intergranular separations found in B&W vessels would not lead to vessel failure. This conclusion was accepted by the AEC .To cover the period of extended operation, a fracture mechanics analysis was performed using current ASME Code requirements; that analysis is fully described in this report.In May 1973, the AEC issued Regulatory Guide 1.43, "Control of Stainless Steel Weld Cladding of Low-Alloy Steel Components".
The guide states that intergranular separations "has been reported only in forgings and plate material of SA-508 Class 2 composition made to coarse grain practice when clad using high-deposition-rate welding processes identified as 'high-heat-input' processes such as the submerged-arc wide-strip and the submerged-arc 6-wire processes.
Cracking was not observed in clad SA-508 Class 2 materials clad by 'low-heat-input' processes controlled to minimize heating of the base metal. Further, cracking was not observed in clad SA-533 Grade B Class 1 plate material, which is produced to fine grain practice.
Characteristically, the cracking occurs only in the grain-coarsened region of the base-metal heat-affected zone at the weld bead overlap." The guide also notes that the maximum observed dimensions of these subsurface cracks is 0.5 inch x 0.165 inch.An update of BAW-10013 was completed for the B&WOG as reported in Appendix C to BAW-2251A.
While Davis-Besse was not included in this report, the methodology used to evaluate intergranular separations in the DB-1 SA-508 Class 2 forgings is consistent with the methodology reported in Appendix C of BAW-2251A.
The DB-1 specific analysis was performed for 60-years using the current fracture toughness information, applied stress intensity factor solutions, and fatigue crack growth correlations for SA-508 Class 2 material.
The objective of the analysis is to determine the acceptability of the postulated underclad cracks for the period of extended operation using ASME Code, Section XI, IWB-3612 acceptance criteria.The analysis was applied to two relevant regions of the RV: the beltline, and the nozzle belt. The DB-1 closure head/head flange will be replaced with a new closure head that was fabricated by AREVA using SA-508 Class 3 material, which is not susceptible to the subject intergranular separations.
Replacement is scheduled prior to entering the period of extended operation so the closure head is not considered in this evaluation.
Both axial and circumferential oriented flaws were considered in the evaluation; however, the detailed flaw evaluation was only performed for the bounding axially oriented flaws. All the significant normal/upset condition transients and emergency/faulted condition transients were evaluated in the analysis.
The fatigue crack growth analysis considered all the normal/upset condition transients with associated 60-year projected cycles for the period of extended operation.
An axially oriented, semi-elliptical surface flaw with an initial flaw size of 0.353-inch deep (approximately twice that which has been observed)and 2.12-inch long (approximately four times that which has been observed) with a 6:1 aspect ratio was conservatively assumed at each of the two regions. This is contrasted to the observed flaws which are subsurface with a maximum size of 0.165 inch deep by 0.5 inch long.For an axially oriented flaw, the limiting location for satisfying the requirements of IWB-3612 is at the lower end of the nozzle belt forging where the thickness transitions from 8.438 to 12.0 inches. The maximum crack growth, considering normal/upset condition transients with associated 60-year projected cycles for the period of extended operation (Reference 4 and Reference 5 for 114 HU/CDs), was determined to be 0.043 inches, which results in a final flaw depth of 0.396 inches (Reference 6, Table 6-1). The maximum applied stress intensity factor for the normal and upset condition results in a fracture toughness margin of 3.67 which is greater than the IWB-3612 acceptance criterion of 4/10 (3.16). The maximum applied stress intensity factor for the emergency and faulted conditions results in a fracture toughness margin of 1.43, which is greater than the IWB-3612 acceptance criterion of ,/2 (1.41). It is therefore concluded that the postulated underclad cracks in the DB-1 reactor vessel are acceptable for continued safe operation through the period of extended operation.

==1.0 INTRODUCTION==
 
Beginning in 1970, reactor vessel manufacturers have been detecting intergranular separations in the heat-affected zones of low alloy steel SA-508 Class 2 forgings melted to coarse grain practice and clad with austenitic stainless steel weld metal using high-heat-input submerged-arc welding processes.
A fracture mechanics analysis, performed in 1971 to address this so-called underclad cracking phenomenon, demonstrated that the critical crack size required to initiate fast fracture was several orders of magnitude greater than the maximum postulated flaw size plus predicted flaw growth over a 40 year design life. This analysis utilized fracture toughness data based on radiation embrittlement at end-of-life conditions (i.e., fast neutron fluence at 32 EFPY). The final report, BAW-10013-A
[1], concluded that postulated intergranular separations in B&W-designed vessels would not lead to vessel failure. The present analysis updates the 1971 analysis for the Davis Besse Unit 1 (DB-1) reactor vessel using current ASME Code requirements and extends the operating period to 60 years. Inside surface flaws are postulated to be present at several locations on the inside surface of the reactor vessel (RV) that are susceptible to underclad cracking.
The analysis is performed to determine the acceptability of the postulated flaws under design basis loading conditions for the period of extended operation using the acceptance criteria of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section. XI, Article IWB-3612 [2]. The DB-1 underclad cracking evaluation for 60 years summarized herein is based on the detailed calculation reported in Reference
[7].1.1 Background Two key developments in the treatment of underclad cracking are the B&W investigations in BAW-10013-A and the issuance of Regulatory Guide 1.43 1.1.1 B&W Investigations in BAW-10013-A The results of the B&W investigations in BAW-1 0013-A confirmed that intergranular separations subject flaws only occur in SA-508 Class 2 forgings manufactured to a course grain practice and clad by high-heat-input submerged-arc welding processes such as the six-wire, strip, and the two-wire processes.
Furthermore, these defects have only been detected in the heat-affected zone immediately below the clad/base metal interface and the size of these defects did not exceed 0.100 inch in depth and 0.500 inch in length. A depth of 0.156 inch was used in the fracture mechanics analysis summarized in BAW-10013-A since it was the maximum discontinuity depth observed throughout the industry.
The investigations also noted that no anomalies were observed in SA-533 Grade B, Class 1 plate materials clad by any of the high-heat-input welding processes.
 
====1.1.2 Regulatory====
 
Guide 1.43 In May 1973, the Atomic Energy Commission issued Regulatory Guide 1.43 entitled "Control.
of Stainless Steel Weld Cladding of Low-Alloy Steel Components," [3]. This guide states that "Underclad cracking has been reported only in forgings and plate material of SA-508 Class 2 composition made to coarse grain practice when clad using high-deposition-rate welding processes identified as "high-heat-input" processes such as the submerged-arc wide-strip and the submerged-arc 6-wire processes.
Cracking was not observed in SA-508 Class 2 materials clad by "low-heat-input" processes controlled.
to minimize heating of the base metal. Further, cracking was not observed in clad SA-533 Grade B Class 1 plate material, which is produced to fine grain practice.
Characteristically, the cracking occurs Page 8 Controlled Document AR Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years only in the grain-coarsened region of the base-metal heat-affected zone at the weld bead overlap." The guide also notes that the maximum size of these subsurface cracks is 0.5 inches x 0.165 inches.1.2 Postulated Flaw Size The size of the postulated underclad crack to be considered in the present fracture.
mechanics analysis is conservatively taken as the maximum size of subsurface cracks noted in Regulatory Guide 1.43. The subsurface dimensions of the postulated underclad crack are therefore taken to be 0.165 inch in depth and 0.500 inch in length.1.3 Regions of Interest Based on the discussion above, the only regions of the reactor vessel that are susceptible to underclad cracking are those fabricated from SA-508 Class 2 forgings manufactured to a coarse grain practice and clad by a high-heat-input submerged arc welding process. SA-508 Class 2 material is used extensively in the DB-1 reactor vessel between the lower and upper heads, from the Dutchman forging to the reactor vessel flange. The lower head is made from SA-533 Grade B modified plate material which is not susceptible to underclad cracking.
Furthermore, since the present fracture mechanics analysis for underclad cracking is intended to support licensing activities for plant operation beyond 2017, and the present reactor vessel closure head is scheduled to be replaced in 2014 with a one-piece SA-508 Class 3 forged head, the closure head region need not be considered further in the context of the present flaw evaluations for underclad cracking.
Referring to Figure 1-1, the remaining regions of interest for the Davis Besse reactor vessel are: a) Reactor vessel flange forging -SA-508 Class 2 b) Nozzle belt forging -SA-508 Class 2 c) Upper and lower shell forgings -SA-508 Class 2 d) Dutchman forging -SA-508 Class 2 Page 9 Controlled Document A AREVA AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company Document No. 86-9110440-000 NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years Reactor Vessel Flange Nozzle Belt Forging ADB 203; 123Y317 Outlet Nozzle Forging Weld WF-232 Inside 9%Weld WF-233 Outside 91%Upper Shell Forging AKJ 233 -123X244* -Weld WF-182-1 4 Lower Shell Forging AKJ 233 -123X244.Weld WF-232 Inside 12%Weld WF-233 Outside 88%Dutchman Forging 1 22Y284VA1 Weld WF-1 82-1 Lower Head C6168-3 Figure 1-1: Davis Besse Unit I Reactor Vessel Page 10 Controlled Document A AREV VA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years 2.0 ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY Linear elastic fracture mechanics analysis is used to determine the acceptability of intergranular separations in the heat-affected zone of coarse-grained SA-508 Class 2 forging material that has been clad with austenitic stainless steel weld metal using a high-heat-input submerged-arc welding process.Although an underclad crack would be fully contained in the underlying base metal, it is conservatively postulated that such a crack would extend through the cladding material to create a surface breaking flaw. These flaws may be oriented in both the longitudinal direction (lying in a radial plane of the reactor vessel) and circumferential direction (in a horizontal plane). It is further postulated that these flaw are located at the most highly stressed locations in the susceptible regions of the reactor vessel. The applied stresses from internal pressure and thermal gradients, determined by finite element stress analysis using the ANSYS [4] and PCRIT [5] computer codes, and from external vessel and nozzle loads caused by deadweight, thermal expansion, seismic events, and loss of coolant accidents.
Closed-form solutions from the literature are used to characterize the crack tip stress intensity factors needed for ASME Code flaw evaluations.
Additional computation is performed to capture the effect on stress intensity factors of differential thermal expansions between the cladding and base metal. After calculating fatigue crack growth under cyclic loads for the period of extended operation, the final flaw size is evaluated against the acceptance criteria of the ASME Code.2.1 Postulated Surface Flaw For purposes of analysis, an underclad crack is conservatively represented by the 6:1 semi-elliptical surface crack illustrated in Figure 2-1. Combining the design underclad flaw depth of 0.165 inch (from Section 1.2) with a 0.188 inch nominal cladding thickness produces a 0.353 inch deep surface flaw.The 6:1 aspect ratio then produces a postulated flaw length of 2.118 inches, which is significantly greater than the design length of 0.500 inch (from Section 1.2).l 6:1 semi-elliptical surface flaw length Not to scale01 5 eaainrgo 0.165" separation region 7) // 0.353" flaw depth 0.188" cladding thickness iF Figure 2-1: Postulated Surface Flaw Page 11 Controlled Document A AR VA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years 2.2 Stress Intensity Factor Solutions The Raju-Newman solution for an internal semi-elliptical axial surface flaw in a cylindrical vessel is used as a general form of stress intensity factor equation for calculating crack tip stress intensity factors for arbitrary through-wall stress distributions.
For a third-order stress distribution, expressed as aY(x) = A 0 + Aix + A 2 x 2 + A 3 X 3 where "x" is the radial distance from the inside surface of the cylinder, the Raju-Newman
[6] influence coefficient solution for the stress intensity factor at the maximum flaw depth is K, =_
Qj=0 where Q = flaw shape factor = 1 + 1.464(a/c) 1 6 5 a = flaw depth c = flaw half-length

[6] for t/Ri = 0.1 and several values of a/c and aft, where "t" is the wall thickness.
Quadratic expressions have been developed
[7] to accurately interpolate between the tabulated values.Three variations of the above solution are used to calculate stress intensity factors, depending on the type of load and the order of the available through-wall stressdistribution, as explained below.a) Through-wall thermal gradient stresses are available from finite element stress analysis (ANSYS [4] and PCRIT [5]).(TT = Ao + Aix + A 2 x 2 + A 3 x 3 KIT G=-I[GoAoa05

===2.3 Effect===
of Cladding Material on Stress Intensity Factor Although the one-dimensional finite element code PCRIT models the cladding in the thermal solution to calculate temperatures, stresses are only calculated in the base metal, and not in the cladding itself.Thus the code does not consider stresses in the cladding when calculating stress intensity factors due to thermal loading. To account for this cladding effect, an additional stress intensity factor, Kiclad, is calculated separately and added to the stress intensity factor computed by PCRIT.To identify the portion of the total stress intensity factor that is attributable to the presence of cladding and which is not considered by PCRIT, stress intensity factors are determined for two through-wall thermal stress distributions, one with and one "without" the effects of cladding.
The term "without cladding" is used to describe the stress intensify factors currently calculated by PCRIT even though the base metal stresses include the effects of differential thermal expansion between the base metal and cladding materials.
At a given flaw depth, the stress intensity factor due to cladding, Klcjad, is the difference between the stress intensity factors calculated with and without cladding.Thermal stresses are calculated from PCRIT temperature output using the following Timoshenko
[8] for stress in a hollow cylinder, equations from Hoop stress: Axial stress: Ror r ]Go= JTrdr + JTr dr-Tr2 v0 ri) Ro2 "R-i Ri Ri 2 fTr dr -T I-R Ri[ Ref. [8], Eqn. (255) ][ Ref. [8], Eqn. (256)]where r = radial position Ri = inner radius R, = outer radius T = temperature Stress intensity factors are then calculated for each thermal stress distribution using the Raju-Newman
[6] solution for KIT from Section 2.2.Page 13 Controlled Document A AR EVA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years 2.4 Fatigue Crack Growth Model Flaw growth due to cyclic loading is calculated using the fatigue crack growth rate model from Article A-4300 of Section XI [2], da_-- C, (A K )n, dlN where AKI is the stress intensity factor range in ksilin and da/dN is in inches/cycle.

===2.5 Fracture===
Toughness Curves From Article A-4200 of Section XI [2], the lower bound Kia fracture toughness for crack arrest can be expressed as Kia = 26.8 + 12.445 exp [ 0.0145 (T -RTNDT)], where T is the crack tip temperature, RTNDT is the nil-ductility reference temperature of the material, KIa is in units of ksi,,in, and T and RTNDT are in units of OF. In the present flaw evaluations, K 1 5 is limited to a maximum value of 200 ks[i/in (upper-shelf fracture toughness).

The austenitic cladding is assumed to be 18Cr-8Ni stainless steel material.
The PCRIT computer code only accepts constant temperature thermal properties for calculating temperatures, but does admit temperature dependent mechanical properties for calculating stresses.
Thermal and mechanical properties for the base metal and cladding materials were obtained from Reference
[9].3.3 Nil-Ductility Reference Temperature The reference temperature index for the nil-ductility transition region of the fracture toughness curves, RTNDT, is a function of the fast neutron fluence and the chemical composition of the material.
Values of RTNDT are obtained from a recent determination of pressurized thermal shock temperatures for the DB-1 reactor vessel at projected fluence values for 52 EFPY of operation over 60 calendar years [10]. The limiting values of fluence and reference temperature are listed in Table 3-2 for the four regions of interest for underclad cracking.
The unirradiated value of 60&deg;F [11] is used for the reference temperature of the reactor vessel flange since the fluence at this location would be lower than the value of 2.57E+16 n/cm 2 at the top of the inlet nozzle forging [12]. This fluence value is less than the threshold value of 1.OE+17 n/cm 2 , below which a material surveillance program is not required to monitor changes to fracture toughness due to exposure to neutron irradiation

[14].The temperature and pressure time-history curves in the functional specification
[14] are discretized for input to the PCRIT. Individual transient events are then combined into complete cycles and these combined transients are used to calculate the cyclic variations in stress intensity factor that produce fatigue crack growth over the life of the plant.Page 19 Controlled Document A ARE VA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years 3.5 Stresses The stress intensity factor solution described in Section 2.2 for the postulated inside surface flaw requires that stresses be defined in the reactor vessel wall in order to develop polynomial stress distributions in the through-wall direction.
The required stress profiles can be either first or third-order in the radial distance from the inside surface, depending on the source of stress. The various loadings that are considered for an evaluation of underclad cracking are transient stresses from internal pressures and reactor coolant temperatures, stresses from external loads on the vessel and nozzles, and discontinuity stresses (or adjustments to calculated stresses to account for local geometric discontinuities).
Several locations within the reactor vessel are considered for evaluation, as indicated in Figure 3-1.The nozzle belt location at the reactor vessel flange is selected since stresses would be expected to be high since the thick flange forging serves as a stress riser for stresses in the thinner nozzle belt.Similarly, the nozzle belt is evaluated at the transition from the thinner shell forging thickness (8.438") to the thicker nozzle belt thickness (12"). Although remote from any structural discontinuity, the lower shell forging will be evaluated at the mid-beltline elevation due to a high value of fast neutron fluence at this location.
An earlier fracture mechanics analysis of potential underclad cracking in skirt-supported reactor vessels, performed in 1996 for several B&W-designed reactor vessels [17], showed that the lower shell at the weld to the support skirt was not a controlling location.
Since stresses would be lower in the DB-1 nozzle-supported vessel at a comparable location, and the fluence level is lower at the Dutchman forging than at the mid-beltline elevation, the Dutchman forging location shown in Figure 3-1 need not be evaluated in the present fracture mechanics analysis.Stresses are determined at each reactor vessel location identified where a flaw evaluation is to be performed to address the potential for underclad cracking; i.e., under the reactor vessel flange, at the transition in thickness, and at the mid-beltline elevation.
The basic stress data is obtained from the PCRIT analysis for the transient conditions defined in Section 3.4. The remaining vessel and nozzle stresses, which are only available for selected operating conditions, are then scaled by the governing transient data and combined with the detailed stresses obtained from PCRIT.Page 20 Controlled Document A AR EVA AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company Document No. 86-9110440-000 NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years-Nozzle Belt at RV Flange I Evaluation Point 3-Nozzle Belt at Transition I EvaluationPoint Lower Shell Forging at Weld WF-1 82-1 Evaluation Point 1 Dutchman Forging at Weld WF-232 (Lower)Figure 3-1: Reactor Vessel Locations Page 21 Controlled Document A AREVA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years 3.5.1 Stresses for Operating Transients PCRIT transient thermal and stress analysis is performed for each transient combination.
Input to PCRIT computer code consists of the data presented in Sections 3.1 through 3.4, as well as the convective heat transfer film coefficients developed for the beltline shell and nozzle belt forgings, respectively.
In addition to calculating temperatures and stresses at selected times during the transient, PCRIT computes stress intensity factors at pre-determined flaw depths in the vessel wall, ranging from 1/4 0 th to 32/4 0 th of the wall thickness.
Critical time points during a transient are selected by reviewing the PCRIT output to determine the times when the maximum and minimum stress intensity factors occur at a representative flaw depth, say 2/4 0 th of the wall thickness (or 2/4 0 t). This flaw depth will generally bound the actual flaw depth after fatigue crack growth. Once the critical transient time points are selected, the corresponding transient stresses are extracted from the transient results and used to compute stress intensity factors at each calculated increment of fatigue crack growth, as determined from the fatigue crack growth model described in Section 2.4. The required thermal stresses are extracted from supplemental PCRIT results files in the form of the Ai stress coefficients defined in Section 2.2 for calculating KIT.Transient pressure stresses are expressed in terms of the Bi unit stress coefficients defined in Section 2.2 for calculating Kip. Pressure stresses have been determined for each evaluation point identified in Figure 3-1 from a generic axisymmetric finite element analysis of B&W-designed reactor vessels [18].3.5.2 Discontinuity Factors The thermal stresses calculated by the PCRIT computer code are only applicable to cylindrical shell sections remote from structural discontinuities.
However, the same finite element stress analysis used to derive stress coefficients for the closure flange preload and a unit pressure load can be used to develop scale factors, or discontinuity factors, to account for the presence of stress risers in the reactor vessel wall on thermal stresses calculated by PCRIT. In addition, pressure stresses from the axisymmetric finite element analysis can be used to develop discontinuity factors for the linear gradient stresses introduced in Section 2.2. An example of a linear gradient stress is the inside surface stress calculated from a vessel beam model.While PCRIT thermal stresses are computed for all analyzed transients for remote shell locations, detailed finite element stresses are only available at structural discontinuities for preload, heatup, steady state, and cooldown conditions.
The logic for developing thermal discontinuity factors is to consider that at any time during a thermal transient, the relative magnitude and shape of the thermal stress profiles at the structural discontinuity and the remote location remain nearly constant.
Ratios of the four Ai thermal stress coefficients, defined in Section 2.2, between the two locations would then be similar for any "heating type" transient, and likewise for any "cooling type" transient.
These ratios, or thermal gradient discontinuity factors, can then be developed for representative heating and cooling transients, such as reactor heatup and cooldown, where thermal stresses are available.
Accordingly, discontinuity factors are calculated at 5 hours into reactor heatup (at the end of the heatup ramp) and at 8 hours into reactor cooldown (at the end of the cooldown ramp). By classifying each thermal transient analyzed by PCRIT as being either a heating or cooling type transient (at the time points chosen for evaluation), the appropriate thermal gradient discontinuity factor can be selected for use in adjusting the Ai thermal stress coefficients from PCRIT. These adjusted stress coefficients may then be used to calculate the thermal stress intensity factor at the structural discontinuity.

Since surface stresses are not available from the finite element results, nonlinear extrapolation is used to obtain the desired stresses.
A linear gradient stress discontinuity factor is simply the ratio of the inside or outside surface pressure stress at a structural discontinuity to the comparable stress at a remote location in the vessel.3.5.3 Stresses from Vessel Loads General reactor vessel shell stresses have been developed
[19] for deadweight (DW), thermal expansion (TH), operating basis earthquake (OBE), safe shutdown earthquake (SSE), and loss of coolant accident (LOCA) loads from an isolated beam model of the reactor vessel and service support structure.
These stresses, which are provided at several locations within the reactor vessel, as shown in Figure 3-2, were calculated at the inside and outside surfaces of the vessel for four conservative combinations of individual load cases, 1. (DW+TH) + OBE 2. OBE 3. (DW+TH) + [ (SSE)2 + (LOCA)2 ]1/2 4. [ (SSE)2 + (LOCA)2 ]1/2 according to the relationships, Longitudinal Stress = Axial Force / Area of Shell + Bending Moment x Radius I Moment of Inertia Circumferential Stress = Longitudinal Stress x Poisson's Ratio In order to mitigate conservatism in the present fracture mechanics analysis for underclad cracking, and to obtain the individual load case stresses needed for the fatigue crack growth and final flaw evaluation phases of the analysis, stresses are derived in this section for individual loads using the general methodology provided in the reactor vessel stress input document [19]. Stresses are calculated for flaw evaluation points 1, 2, and 3, respectively, using scale factors described in Section 3.5.2 to adjust for structural discontinuities, as applicable.
The correlation between flaw evaluation points and locations in the vessel beam model is presented below.Flaw Vessel Evaluation Description Model Point Location 1 Shell Forging at Mid-Beltline 6 2 Nozzle Belt at Transition 4 3 Nozzle Belt at RV Flange 2 Page 23 Controlled Document A AR EVA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years Figure 3-2: Reactor Vessel Locations for General Shell Stresses Page 24 Controlled Document A AR EVA Document No. 86-9110440-000 AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years 3.5.4 Stresses from Nozzle Loads The reactor vessel stress input document [19] provides stresses in the vessel shell from external piping loads acting on the reactor vessel inlet and outlet nozzles. Inside and outside surface stresses were calculated at the locations shown in Figure 3-2 for four conservative combinations of individual load cases, 1. (DW+TH) + OBE 2. OBE 3. (DW+TH) + [ (SSE)2 + (LOCA)2 ]11/2 4. [ (SSE)2 + (LOCA)2 ]1/2 Stresses are calculated from nozzle loads in a two step process. First, surface stresses are calculated at the base of the nozzle using the Bijlaard method as documented in Welding Research Council Bulletin 107 [20]. These stresses are then attenuated to other locations in the vessel by treating the section of the vessel wall between the center of the nozzle and the point of interest as a semi-infinite beam on an elastic foundation.
In order to reduce conservatisms inherent in the reactor vessel stress input document [19] and to generate individual load case stresses for use in the fracture mechanics analysis, stresses in the reactor vessel shell are calculated in for individual loads using the general methodology provided in Reference
[19].3.5.5 Nozzle Interaction Stresses The nozzle interaction stresses are discontinuity stresses in the reactor vessel shell at the outlet nozzle-to-shell juncture.
These stresses, which are the difference between the actual stresses at the structural discontinuity and the stresses in a remote region of the nozzle belt shell, are available from the fracture mechanics input document [19] for several loading conditions.
Nozzle interaction stresses are attenuated to other locations in the reactor vessel in the same manner as the stresses at the base of the nozzle (Bijlaard stresses) that were calculated in Section 3.5.4 from external nozzle loads.First introduced in 3.5.2 to adjust thermal gradient stresses calculated at remote locations for use at structural discontinuities, reference heating and cooling load cases are selected from the documented loading conditions for use in determining nozzle interaction stresses for other transient conditions.
Stresses at the end of the reactor heatup to 100% power are used for reference "heating type" transient stresses, while stresses at the end of the cooldown ramp are selected for use as the reference "cooling type" transient stresses.The reference nozzle interaction stress coefficients for heating and cooling transients are calculated for locations where flaw evaluations will be performed, using the appropriate surface stress discontinuity factors.The local reference nozzle interaction stress coefficients are used to calculate nozzle interaction stress intensity factors for a particular thermal transient by first calculating a set of linear gradient stress coefficients to characterize the through-wall thermal stress profile. The reference nozzle interaction stress coefficients at a particular location will then be multiplied by the ratio of transient thermal stress coefficients to similar thermal stress coefficients derived for the reference heating or cooling thermal Page 25 Controlled Document A AREVA AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company Document No. 86-9110440-000 NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years stress profile, as applicable.

==SUMMARY==
OF RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Fracture mechanics analysis has been used to perform crack growth and flaw tolerance analyses to evaluate conservatively postulated 6:1 semi-elliptical underclad flaws extending 0.165 inches into the low alloy steel forging materials of the reactor vessel for normal, upset, emergency, and faulted design conditions.
The total initial flaw depth, including cladding, was 0.353 inch, corresponding to a length of 2.12 inches along the inside surface of the cladding for the postulated 6:1 flaw aspect ratio. Based on a combination of stress levels and predicted values of fast neutron fluence at 52 EPFY, flaw evaluations were performed at three locations in the reactor vessel; the lower shell forging at the mid-beltline elevation, the nozzle belt at the change in thickness, and the nozzle belt at the reactor vessel flange.The reactor vessel closure head was not included in the flaw evaluations for underclad cracking since a one-piece SA-508 Class 3 replacement head is planned to be in place by 2014, prior to the period of extended operation under license renewal, which begins on April 22, 2017.Furthermore, since the present fracture mechanics analysis for underclad cracking is intended to support licensing activities for plant operation beyond 2017, and the present reactor vessel closure head is scheduled to be replaced in 2014 with a one-piece SA-508 Class 3 forged head, the closure head region need not be considered further in the context of the present flaw evaluations for underclad cracking 4.1 Summary of Results [7]The final fracture toughness margin for a postulated axial flaw in the beltline region is 4.88 for normal and upset conditions and 2.59 for emergency and faulted conditions.
A postulated axial flaw at the transition region of the nozzle belt would produce margins of 3.67 for upset conditions and 1.43 for emergency and faulted conditions.
For a circumferential flaw at this location, these margins are 4.39 for upset conditions and 1.78 for emergency and faulted conditions.
At the reactor vessel flange region of the nozzle belt, an axial flaw would result in fracture toughness margins of 4.36 for upset conditions and 1.75 for emergency and faulted conditions.
A circumferential flaw at this location would produce margins of 7.40 for upset conditions and 2.94 for emergency and faulted conditions.
These results show that fracture toughness margins are higher for flaws oriented in a circumferential plane. Table 4-1 summarizes the results of underclad cracking flaw evaluations for postulated flaws in the controlling axial orientation.
 
===4.2 Conclusions===
The results presented in Table 4-1 demonstrate that the potential for underclad cracking in the DB-1 reactor vessel are within the acceptable margins of the ASME Code for fracture toughness of the susceptible SA-508 Class 2 forging material for the period of extended operation.
For an axially oriented flaw, the limiting -normal and upset condition fracture toughness margin is 3.67, which is greater than the value of 3.16 required by Section X1, Article IWB-3612 [2]. Likewise, the calculated margin for emergency and faulted conditions of 1.43 is greater than the minimum value of 1.41 required Page 27 Controlled Document A AREVA AREVA NP Inc., an AREVA and Siemens company Document No. 86-9110440-000 NON-PROPRIETARY Fracture Mechanics Analysis of Postulated Underclad Cracks in the DB-1 Reactor Vessel for 60 Years by the Code. It has also been demonstrated by analysis that the fracture toughness margins calculated for circumferentially oriented flaws are consistently higher than those for axial flaws.It is further noted that the size of the postulated underclad cracks considered in the flaw evaluations are at least as large as the 0.165 inch deep by 0.500 inch long subsurface crack mentioned in Regulatory Guide 1.43 [3] as the maximum extent of underclad cracking that has been observed in the industry.Therefore, the postulated underclad cracks in the DB-1 reactor vessel are acceptable for continued safe operation through the period of extended operation.

High Pressure Injection/Makeup Nozzle and Thermal Sleeve Program Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 Gentlemen:
The purpose of this letter is to inform the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) of Toledo Edison's (TE) evaluation of High Pressure Injection (HPI) Makeup Nozzle Thermal Sleeve reliability.
By letter dated May 3, 1990 (Serial Number 1802), TE summarized the actions taken during cycle 6 and the sixth refueling outage (6RFO) resulting from the discovery of the failed HPI/Makeup nozzle thermal sleeve during the fifth refueling outage (5RFO) at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (DBNPS) Unit 1. The major actions taken through the end of the 6RFO were focused on the assessment and preservation of the structural integrity of the nozzle which had experienced thermal cycling due to the thermal sleeve failure. Analysis demonstrated that an intact thermal sleeve effectively protects the HPI/Makeup nozzle from the effects of thermal cycling fatigue. Since the thermal sleeve failure discovered during the 5RFO was attributed to thermal cycling fatigue, induced by makeup flow cycling, control of makeup flow was improved as described in TE's letters to the NRC dated September 14, 1988 (Serial Number 1580), May 3, 1990 (Serial Number 1802) and May 25, 1990 (Serial Number 1808). Recognizing the importance of long term thermal sleeve reliability, TE committed to investigate the mechanisms which affect thermal sleeve life, and evaluate alternatives which might be pursued to ensure long term reliability.
Toledo Edison's letter to the NRC dated December 3, 1990 (Serial Number 1871) provided the details of TE's plans and schedule to address thermal sleeve reliability.
Operating Companies* Cleveland Electrc Illuminating 7oledo Edison Docket Number 50-346 License Number NPF-3 Serial Number 1968 Page 2 Toledo Edison's plans focused on a fracture mechanics based prediction of thermal sleeve life under various makeup flow cycling conditions.
As contingencies, TE planned to investigate the impact of premature thermal sleeve failure on nozzle structural integrity, and to conduct a preliminary assessment of the feasibility of on-line monitoring for thermal sleeve presence.
The favorable results of the fracture mechanics thermal sleeve lifetime prediction has obviated the need for further consideration of the impact of premature thermal sleeve failure and on-line monitoring for thermal sleeve presence.
The fracture mechanics analysis predicts a lifetime exceeding 20 eighteen-month operating cycles in makeup service under current makeup flow control conditions.
Cycle 7 is the first operating cycle in makeup service for the current HPI/makeup nozzle thermal-sleeve.
Babcock and Wilcox Nuclear Services (BWNS) and Structural Integrity Associates (SIA) performed the evaluation of thermal sleeve reliability for TE. Babcock and Wilcox Nuclear *Services, using the proprietary BWNS FLOIJTRAN computer code, provided fluid temperature distributions corresponding to the actual range of makeup flow rates. SIA used this information to develop stress distributions within the thermal sleeve for the range of makeup flow rates using the ANSYS computer code: These results were used as input to a fracture mechanics analysis of the thermal sleeve in conjunction with makeup flow cycling conditions determined from actual recorded operating data. SIA's pc-CRACK computer code was used for the fracture mechanics analysis.Recorded makeup flow data for several representative days in fuel cycles 5, 6 and 7 were analyzed to establish the makeup flow cycling conditions used in the fracture mechanics analysis.
The data included normal power operation days during all three fuel cycles as well as some off-normal events such as trips and shutdowns.
The fracture mechanics model used to analyze the sleeve was chosen to be representative of the fracture behavior of the sleeve observed from metallurgical analysis of the broken sleeve pieces recovered from the reactor vessel during the 5RFO. A fracture mechanics model for an axial, semi-elliptical surface flaw of varying aspect ratio, in a cylinder, was selected from the pc-CRACK fracture mechanics model library. This model is consistent with the findings of the metallurgical analysis that fracture initiated predominantly on the inside surface of the sleeve, at or near the outlet end of the sleeve, and that the primary flaw propagation direction observed was outward from the inside surface with the flaw oriented axially on the thermal sleeve, indicating that axial extension in length was a consequence of the changing aspect ratio of the semi-elliptical flaw once it propagated through-wall.
For this analysis, the pc-CRACK model was adjusted to calculate the stress intensity factor at the inside surface of the thermal sleeve. The stress intensity factor at this location is more important to flaw propagation in the axial direction than the stress intensity factor at the deepest point of flaw penetration, which is normally calculated by pc-CRACK.
Docket Number 50-346 License Number NPF-3 Serial Number 1968 Page 3 The stress intensity factor was calculated by pc-CRACK using this model and the ANSYS thermal sleeve stress distributions for the range of makeup flow rates. These pc-CRACK stress intensity factor results and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section XI fatigue crack growth correlation for stainless steel were then used to predict flaw growth under the various makeup cycling conditions.
Using this approach, the calculated flaw growth rate for the makeup flow cycling conditions which were prevalent prior to the 5RFO compares favorably with the metallurgical analysis of the failed thermal sleeve.The fracture mechanics anplysis yields predicted flaw growth rates on the order of 2.5 to 3.5 x 10- inches per makeup flow cycle.- The metallurgical analysis reported striation spacing of less than one micron whiSh corresponds to an approximate crack growth rate of less than 3.9 x 10- inches per stress cycle. Therefore, the fracture mechanics model predictions correlate well with the observed thermal sleeve failure.Under the makeup flow cycling conditions which were prevalent prior to the 5RFO, the fracture mechanics analysis predicts that an initiated flaw would propagate sufficiently to result in thermal sleeve failure-in approximately eighteen months of operation.
Since the thermal sleeve failure occurred about halfway through fuel cycle 5, approximately the first three fuel cycles were required to initiate the flaw under the severe makeup flow cycling conditions which dominated that period of operation.
After the thermal sleeve failure was discovered during the 5RFO, makeup flow control was improved to reduce both the frequency and amplitude of makeup flow cycling. Under the improved makeup flow cycling conditions typical for fuel cycles 6 and 7, the fracture mechanics analysis predicts a thermal sleeve life exceeding 20 eighteen-month fuel cycles. This prediction is based on a larger assumed initial flaw size because with the improved makeup flow control conditions, a much larger initial flaw size must be assumed for any significant flaw propagation to occur.Considering that approximately three fuel cycles were required to initiate a flaw that would propagate under the severe makeup flow cycling conditions which existed prior to the 5RFO, it is reasonable to conclude that at least as long a period will be required to initiate a flaw which would propagate under the current improved makeup flow control conditions.
The time required for flaw initiation provides added conservatism to the predicted thermal sleeve lifetime of 20 fuel cycles.The thermal sleeve currently in makeup service was installed in the 5RFO, but has only one fuel cycle of makeup service. The makeup flow path was re-routed to the current nozzle during the 6RFO as one of the actions in response to the discovery of the failed thermal sleeve during the 5RFO.With the current improved makeup flow cycling conditions, TE plans no further actions to address HPI/Makeup nozzle thermal sleeve reliability and considers the matter to be closed.
