Meeting Agenda

  • Introduction of the team
  • State the objectives of the meeting
  • Describe the waterhammer phenomena
  • Explain how this modification will address the issue
  • Describe the approach to the modification 2

Presentation Objective Discuss the Wolf Creek Waterhammer Mitigation Modification 3

Project Team

  • Rich Clemens Vice President - Strategic Projects
  • Russell Bowie ESW Project Director
  • Kamran Derakhshandegan ESW Project Engineer

  • Tony Ryan Sargent & Lundy - Lead Engineer

Description of the Total ESW Initiative

  • Buried Piping Replacement Project (BPRP)
  • Above Ground Replacement Project (AGRP)
  • Waterhammer Mitigation Project
  • ESW System Inspection and Repair Program 5

Description of the Waterhammer Mitigation Modification

  • The use of a bypass line around the ESW Pump discharge valve
  • The closure of the ESW Pump discharge valve for a fixed time period to force flow through the bypass
  • The locking shut of ESW cross-tie valves
  • A time-delay relay in-line to ESW Pump discharge valve open signal 6

Waterhammer Phenomena

  • Present design results in a pressure transient (waterhammer) when ESW flow is initiated upon shutdown of the normal Service Water (SW) system 7

System Operation

1. Initiating event
2. Service water shutdown, system begins to drain down
3. EDG start
4. Sequencer operation
5. Cross-tie valve operation
6. Start ESW pumps
7. ESW flow in bypass mode
8. Main ESW Valves open, full flow of ESW 8

Effects of this Modification

1. Reduces system column closure effects
2. Reduction in pressure pulse
3. Reduction in piping loads
4. Remains within design specifications 9

Analytical Methods Used Computer modeling (vice hand calculation) using the same calculation methods as existing plant license

  • Hydraulic network evaluation
  • Void closure pressure - Joukowsky Equation 10

Conclusion

  • The 50.59 process has concluded that prior NRC approval not required
  • WCNOC intends to implement the proposed modifications to the ESW by completion of mid-cycle outage during spring of 2014.
