Step-by-Step Procedure 2 of 210/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 25 CRP Model Development*Goal is to make use of NUREG-1829 data in the characterization of epistemic uncertainty*Our technical approach is based on converting LOCA frequencies to CRPs to facilitate separate failure rate treatment-Our method is based on calculating LOCA frequency as the product of a failure rate and a CRP-Failure rate is established independent of NUREG-1829 data in Step 1 for all component ti ca t egor i es-NUREG-1829 data is used to set target LOCA frequencies for each CRP model to be developed-CRP distributions are derived from target LOCA frequencies using formulas for the product of two lognormal distributions and the Lydell Base Case failure rate distributions *Two distinct sources of NUREG-1829 data-Base case analyses of specific PWR components (hot leg, surge line, HPI line for a specific 3-loop PWR design by Lydell using methodology similar to that being used for STP-Questionnaires provided by 9 experts with estimates of LOCA frequencies vs. break size for many PWR components for the entire fleet of U.S. PWRs10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 26 Step 2.1 Define CRP Model Categories
- The following CRP models are used for all STP model Categories oHot Leg CRP model oCold Leg CRP model oSurge Line CRP model oHigh Pressure Injection CRP model*This selection was based on the following considerations:
SffiidiNUREG1829diidiifh CRP o S u ffi c i ent d ata i n NUREG-1829 an d support i ng i nput data to support est i mat i on o f t h e CRP s oCategories provide a unique model for all the categories with large pipe sizes oFurther detail in the treatment of smaller pipes is not warranted for this application, nor is it supported by sufficient pipe failure data.
oThe SG Inlet categories are a special case of the welds in the hot leg and constitute a separate category solely to capture any "outliers" in the failure rate data.
oThe High Pressure Injection CRP category is representative of the medium and small bore pipe with pipe diameter up to 12". They are all stainless steel lines connected to the larger pipe sizes and are subject to a similar range of DMs. Developing variants within this category would not be expected to have different results10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 27 Application of the CRP Models to the 8 System CategoriesCase Description Weld Type Damage Mechanism (DM) CRP Model and Bayes' Update Evidence 1 RCS Hot Leg Excl.

Steps 2.2 thru 2.5 Expert Composite Distributions*Goal is to derive a single composite distribution that represents the inputs provided by 9 experts for LOCA frequencies for key
components*Some experts provided asymmetric inputs but most provided symmetric inputs for lower, middle, and upper values
- Weinvestigatedtwoapproachesforformingcompositedistributions
- We investigated two approaches for forming composite distributions-Mixture Distribution Method; each expert is given equal weight in a sampling scheme in which an expert is selected and then a sample is randomly chosen from a lognormal distribution of LOCA frequency-Geometric Mean Method: a composite distribution is formed by taking the geometric means of two parameters of the experts lognormal distributions: the parameters chosen are the medians and range factors.-Both Methods require the combination of two distributions provided by each expert; one for a reference LOCA frequency and another for multipliers to reflect plant operation for 40 years10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 29 Treatment of Asymmetric Inputs*Raw data provided by the 9 experts is comprised of a lower value, mid value and upper value with understanding they are treated as the parameters of a lognormal distribution*In most cases the inputs are symmetric, i.e. Upper/Mid = Mid/Lower; in a few cases Mid/Lower > Upper/Mid
- InNUREG1829splitlognormaldistributionswereusedtotreatthis
- In NUREG-1829 split lognormal distributions were used to treat this asymmetry.*In this study we fit the asymmetric cases to lognormal using two methods: 1. RF = SQRT(Upper/Lower); 2. RF = Upper/Mid. We adopted 2 per recommendation from Dr. Mosleh*We rejected split lognormals as our tools do not support it and we adopted a different approach to treating the lower tails that is applied when we select our target LOCA frequencies10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 30 Comparison of Geometric Mean and Mixture Distributions for RCS Hot Leg10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 31 Comparison of Geometric Mean and Mixture Distributions for RCS Surge Line10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 32 Geometric Mean Composite Distributions Component LOCA Cat.

- The capability to estimate LOCA frequencies as a function of break size at each location.
- The capability to utilize information from NUREG-1829 to characterize epistemic uncertainty associated with LOCA
frequencies.
- A method that incorporates via Bayes' uncertainty analysis the service data on pipe failures and component exposures.
- A quantification of epistemic uncertainties associated with estimating the input parameters in the model equations, including both parametric and modeling sources of uncertainty.
- The capability to quantify the impacts of information on degradation mechanism susceptibility at each location, based on insights from service data and results of RI-ISI evaluation.10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 58 Major Tasks for 2012
- Non-isolatable LOCAs caused by failures of non-pipe components need to be addressed. These include control rod drive standpipes, instrument lines, and other components welded to the reactor pressure vessel, pump and valve bodies, pressurizer safety and relief valve leaks, and reactor coolant pump seals.
- Isolatable LOCAs need to be addressed. These involve failures in Class 2 piping systems that can be isolated, including CVCS charging and letdown lines, RCP seal return lines, etc.
- Pipebreaksinsteamandfeedwaterlinesinsidethecontainmentthatcouldgenerate
- Pipe breaks in steam and feed-water lines inside the containment that could generate debris and lead to a need for recirculation cooling and/or containment spray actuation need to be addressed.
- Execution of Step 3.4 to apply the Markov model to evaluate the impact of inspected and non-inspected NDE locations on the LOCA frequencies needs to be completed.
- The current study is based on rough estimates of weld counts and pipe sizes for small bore pipes. If small bore pipes are found to contribute significantly to the risk of debris-induced ECCS failures, more detailed review of the small bore piping configurations needs to be completed.10/03/11 Pre-Licensing Meeting 59
