SUMMARY

This report provides the teclu.ical basis for the elimination of inspection requirements for reactor coolant pump (RCP) motor flywheels for all operating domestic Westinghouse plants and several Babcock and Wilcox plants, including Crystal River Unit 3, Oconee Units 1, 2 and 3, Davis Besse and Three Mile Island Unit 1. This report was submitted for review by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in January 1996, and after two requests for additional information, the NRC issued a Safety Evaluation Report (SER) in September 1996. This SER accepted the technical arguments presented herein, and provided partial relief from RCP motor flywheel inspection requirements.

At the request of the NRC (see the letter in Appendix G of this report), Westinghouse Report WCAP-14535 has been revised to include the responses to the NRC requests for additional information (Appendices E and F), and the NRC safety evaluation report (Appendix G).

Additionally, the key provisions of the SER and followup clarifications are included in Appendix H. This final version of WCAP-14535 includes an "A" following the report number, which designates acceptance by the NRC. The content of this report is identical to WCAP-14535, with the exception of the additional appendices as noted.

SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION An integral part of the reactor coolant system (RCS) in pressurized water reactor plants is the reactor coolant pump (RCP), a vertical, single stage, single-suction, centrifugal, shaft seal pump. The RCP ensures an adequate cooling flow rate by circulating large volumes of the primary coolant water at high temperature and pressure through the reactor coolant system.

Following an assumed loss of power to the RCP motor, the flywheel, in conjunction with the impeller and motor assembly, provide sufficient rotational inertia to assure adequate cooling flow during RCP coastdown, thus resulting in adequate core cooling.

During normal power operation, the RCP flywheel possesses sufficient kinetic energy to produce high energy missiles in the event of failure. Conditions which may result in overspeed of the RCP increase both the potential for failure and the kinetic energy of the flywheel. This led to the issuance of Regulatory Guide 1.14 in 1971 (Reference l ), which describes a range of actions to ensure flywheel integrity.

One of the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.14 (a portion of which is shown in Appendix A) is regular inservice volumetric inspection of flywheels. Operating power plants have been inspecting their flywheels for over twenty years now, and no flaws have been identified which affect flywheel integrity. Flywheel inspections are expensive, and involve irradiation exposure for personnel, so this study was commissioned to present the safety case for flywheels, and to quantify the effects of elimination of such inspections.

1.1 Previous Flywheel Integrity Evaluations Westinghouse Plants Fracture evaluations were performed in WCAP-8163 (Reference 2) for a postulated rupture of the RCP discharge piping. The RCP flywheel evaluated had an outer radius of 37.5", a bore radius of 4.7" and a keyway with a radial length of 0.9" and a width of 2.0", which are typical dimensions for RCP flywheels. The flywheel material was A533, Grade B, Class l steel plate, which is typically used in flywheel construction. The ultimate tensile stress (for ductile failure analysis) was 80,000 psi, and the fracture toughness at 120 °F in the weak or transverse direction was 220,000 psi '1inch. Detailed finite element analyses were performed to determine the stress intensity factors for cracks emanating radially from the flywheel keyway. These results were compared to closed form solutions for crack tip locations remote from the keyway, with good correlation. The conclusion of the Reference 2 evaluation was that the limiting speed for ductile failure of 3485 rpm (about 290 % of the normal operating speed) is governing for crack lengths less than 1.15 inches, and that the brittle fracture limit is m:\33S6w.wpf:lb-l11196 1-1

governing for larger crack lengths. Because the 1.15 inch crack is very large in comparison to that detectable under inspection and quality assurance procedures for the flywheel design, it was concluded that 3485 rpm wali the limiting speed for design. The failure prediction methodology was verified by scale model testing, which is discussed in detail in Reference 2.

A series of flywheel overspeed studies were carried out for postulated circumferential and longitudinal split pipe breaks. Table 1-1 summarizes the studies performed in Reference 2.

The maximum speed of 3321 rpm is less than the original design limiting speed of 3485 rpm.

11 Case IO with instantaneous power loss 1200 Babcock and Wilcox Plants Babcock and Wilcox analyzed the RCP for a spectrum of postulated reactor coolant system breaks for a typical Babcock and Wilcox 2568 MWt, IT, fuel assembly, nuclear steam system (Reference 3). A stress analysis of the upper flywheel assembly top flywheel was conducted to determine areas of stress concentration, stress magnitude, and the most likely flawed configurations to consider in the fracture mechanics analysis. The upper assembly top flywheel was considered to be the most critical component, and was the only component m:\3356w.wpf: lb-111196 1-2

modeled for the stress analysis. This spoked flywheel had an outer radius of 36", and an inner radius of 15.2". The flywheel material was ASTM A-516-67 grade 65. The ultimate tensile stress was 76,500 psi, the yield stress was 48,500 psi, and the fracture toughness at 70 ° F and 120 ° F was 67,000 and 109,000 psi "inch. respectively. Stresses were calculated using a finite element model.

Three flawed configurations were considered in the linear elastic fracture mechanics analysis.

These configurations were through-wall radial cracks perpendicular to the faces of the flywheel, and emanating from the following locations: the inner bore, a bolt hole, and a keyway. Since shrink fit forces would retard the growth of radial cracks in the keyway area, they were omitted from the analysis of the keyway crack. The initial crack length was assumed to be the largest crack that could be missed in nondestructive testing (0.24").

Linear elastic fracture mechanics calculations were performed for flywheel temperatures of 70 ° F and l 20 °F. The results of the analysis indicated that the flywheels of the RCPs will not fail under the expected normal operating conditions and that failure conditions are not reached until 220% of the normal operating speed is attained, for the assumed initial crack of 0.24".

(The normal operating speed is 1190 rpm, rounded off to 1200 rpm for calculational purposes).

Fatigue crack growth calculations were performed to determine the size of the flaw over the life of the plant. Motor startup is the only plant transient significant to the flywheel. It was assumed that there are 500 starts over the 40 year life of the plant. The applied cycle stress was based on 125% of normal speed. Fatigue crack growth was calculated to be less than 0.0002". Therefore, it was concluded that the assumed initial crack would not grow to critical length during the design life of the flywheel.

LOCA evaluations performed in Reference 3 included eight different cold leg breaks, including the 8.55 ft2 double ended break at the RCP discharge (with and without electrical braking effects), and smaller break sizes. A summary of the results from the eight analyses are provided in Table 1-2.

Notes: Maximum speed is for the pump in the broken line.

Pump trip time is seconds after the break.

1.2 Leak Before Break (LBB) Considerations Subsequent to the analyses of References 2 and 3, 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix A General Design Criterion 4 was revised to allow exclusion of dynamic effects associated with postulated pipe ruptures, including the effects of missiles, pipe whip, and discharging fluids from the design basis, when analyses reviewed and approved by the NRC demonstrate that the probability of fluid system rupture is extremely low under conditions consistent with the design basis for the piping. This is commonly referred to as leak-before-break (LBB) licensing. Since that time, all domestic Westinghouse and Babcock and Wilcox designed PWR plants have qualified for LBB exclusion of the primary loop double ended guillotine LOCA.

m:\33S6w.wpf: lb-111196 1-4

Given that a plant has LBB exclusion for the main loop LOCA. the largest break required to be postulatd under the structural design basis becomes that of the largest branch line. The largest branch Jines not covered by the LBB exclusion would be 14" schedule 140 or 160 piping (0.72 ft2 break area, maximum), typically the accumulator line in the cold leg piping. Such a break may be treated as the equivalent of a 0.72 ft2 longitudinal split break in the primary loop piping.

Westinghouse Plants As shown in Table 1-1, the smallest breaks examined were 3.0 ft and 0.5 ft2 longitudinal split breaks (Cases IO and 11). The 3.0 ft2 split break would bound the largest branch line break not covered by the LBB exclusion (0.72 ft2 ) with respect to the effect on the RCP speed. From Reference 2. it is apparent that with or without RCP power, the RCP speed will not exceed 1200 rpm for 3.0 ft2 or 0.5 ft2 longitudinal split breaks for the model 93A 6000 hp RCP described in Reference 2.

Reference 2 concluded that the increase in RCP speed due to the 3.0 ft2 area split break was less than 11 rpm over the normal operating speed of 1189 rpm, or less than I%. Given that the Reference 2 analysis shows that the RCP speed increase is less than 1% for the 3.0 ft2 longitudinal breaks area, and that the maximum credible break under LBB is less than 1/4 of that size, it is concluded that any RCP speed increase resulting from a branch line break will be well within the design RCP speed tolerance of 25%, i.e., 1.25 times the design speed of 1200 rpm, or 1500 rpm, with or without the dynamic braking effects from the RCP being energized. No known non-LOCA events which lead to RCP speedup would be more limiting than the above mentioned pipe break with respect to overspeed. (Further studies extended this conclusion to a range of RCP designs including 63A (4000 hp), 93 (6000 hp),

93A (6000 hp), 93A (7000 hp) and 100 (8000 hp). Note that RCP rotational inertia is a plant specific parameter. The above conclusion for RCP applicability is only valid for the range of pump rotational inertias from 45000 to 123000 lbm*ft2

  • As shown in the next section, all Westinghouse flywheels meet this criterion. Therefore, a peak LOCA speed of 1500 rpm is used in the evaluation of Westinghouse RCP flywheel integrity in this report.

Babcock and Wilcox Plants As shown in Table 1-2, the smallest breaks examined were 5.0 ft2, 3.0 ft2, and 1.0 ft2 split breaks (Cases 3. 4 and 5). The 1.0 ft2 split break would bound the largest branch line break not covered by the LBB exclusion (0. 72 ft2 ) with respect to the effect on the RCP speed.

From Reference 3, the RCP speed will not exceed 1200 rpm for 1.0 ft2 split breaks, with the effects of electrical braking. Although calculations were not specifically performed to determine the effect of excluding electrical braking effects, the Babcock and Wilcox pumps m*\3356w wpUb-111196 1-5

are similar in design to Westinghouse pumps. where the effect of electrical braking was found to be very small on the small break sizes of interest. (As noted for typical Westinghouse pressurized water reactors. a loss of RCP drive power due to electrical faults in the 30 second time interval following a large area break LOCA is an event of extremely low probability. in the range of 3.0 x 1 o*7). Therefore. a peak LOCA speed of 1500 rpm is used in the evaluation of Babcock and Wilcox RCP flywheel integrity in this calculation.

1.3 Report Purpose The purpose of this report is to provide an engineering basis for the elimination of RCP flywheel inservice inspection requirements for all operating domestic Westinghouse plants and the following Babcock and Wilcox plants:

  • Crystal River Unit 3
  • Oconee Units I, 2 and 3
  • Davis Besse
  • Three Mile Island Unit 1 Three complimentary appro.1ches will be used to demonstrate that flywheel inspection may be safe!.* eliminated. A study of the inspection techniques and a summary of inspection results to date shows no indications have been found which affect flywheel integrity (see Section 3.)

A stress and fracture evaluation has shown that very large flaws are needed to cause a failure under maximum overspeed conditions (Section 4). Finally, a risk assessment has been completed to directly compare the flywheel failure probabilities with and without further inspections (Sectil)n 5).

SECTION 2 DESIGN AND FABRICATION Reactor coolant pump flywheels consist of one or more large steel discs which are shrunk fit either directly to the RCP motor shaft or to spokes extending from the motor shaft. In the case of two or more flywheel discs, the individual flywheels are bo'lted together to form an integral flywheel assembly. Each flywheel is keyed to the motor shaft with one or more vertical keyways.

2.1 Flywheel Geometry The flywheels which are attached directly to the motor shaft typically consist of two flywheel discs which arc bolted together and are located above tlle RCP rotor core. The top and bottom discs typically have the same outer diameter and oore dimensions but different thicknesses. The bottom disc usually has a circumferr!nti.al notch along the outside diameter bottom surface for placement of antirotation pawls. Typically, each flywheel is keyed to the motor shaft by means of three vertical keyways, positioned at 120 ° intervals. An example of this type of flywheel is shown in Figure :! 1.

The spoked flywheels consist of an upper and a lower flywheel assembly, above and below the RCP rotor core. The upper flywheel assembly consists of three discs bolted together, will, the top disc having a larger outside diameter than the middle and bottom disc. The lower flywheel consists of a single disc, of the same dimensions as ihe middle and bottom disc of the upper flywheel assembly. There are eight spokes, 2.5 inches thick, extending from and welded to the motor shaft. Each flywheel assembly is keyed to the spokes by means of one keyway. An example of this type of flywheel is shown in Figure 2-2.

For the purpose of the evaluations perfonned for this report, the larger flywheel outside diameter for a particular flywheel assembly is used, smce this is judged to be conservative with respect to stress and fracture. For the flywheel§ inves1jgated in this report, outer diameters range from 65 to 76.5 inches, bore diameter:, r.ange from 8.375 to 30.5 inches (the later being the spoked flywheel), and keyway radial lengths range from 0.39 to 1.06 inches.

Most of the flywheels covered by this report are made from A533 Grade B Class I or A508 Class 3 steel. Flywheels for the pumps at three plants are made from A5 J 6 Grade 70 steel, and those at one plant are made from boiler plate.

A summary of pertinent flywheel parameters is provided in Table 2-1. Plant alpha des:gnations used in Table 2-1 are identified in Table 2-2.

2.2 Material Information The pump motors for all the Westinghouse plants and many of the Babcock and Wilcox plants were manufactured by Westinghouse. All of the Westinghouse flywheels except Haddam Neck are made of A533 Grade B Class I steel. The Haddam Neck flywheels were made of boiler plate steel.

It has not been possible to locate each of the certified material test reports for all of the flywheels, but a sample is contained in Appendix 0. It will be helpful to examine the ordering specifications for the Westinghouse flywheel materials. The first specification is dated December 1969. and requires that the nil-ductility transition temperature from both longitudinal and transverse Charpy specimens be Jess than l0° F. This does not guarantee RTNor is less than l0 °F, but it is highly likely that this is the case.

The Westinghouse equipment specification was changed in January of 1973 to require both Charpy and drop weight tests to ensure that RTNor is no greater than 10° F.

Even though it is likely that most, if not all, of the tlywhe1tls in operation have an RTNor of I0 ° F or less. a range of RTNor values from l0°F to 60° F has been assumed in the integrity evaluations to be discussed later.

SECTION 3 INSPECTION Flywheels are inspected at the plant or during motor refurbishment. Inspections are conducted under Section XI (Reference 4) standard practice for control of instrumentation and personnel qualification. The inspections are conducted by UT level II and level III examiners.

3.1 Examination Volumes Reactor Coolant pump flywheel examinations are conducted under the control of Utility ISi programs according to surveillance schedules governed by individual Plant Technical Specifications. The volumetric examinations recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.14 have been uniformly applied to the accessible surfaces of the pump flywheel after removal of the shroud cover and gauge hole plugs. The volume of flywheel is inspected generally with straight beam techniques applied laterally, checking the plate material for planar defects emanating from the bore, keyways, and around the gauge holes and ream bolt holes.

3.2 Examination Approaches Generally, three examinations are performed. The keyway comer exam is conducted by inserting specially designed ultrasonic probes into the gauge holes and directing the sound laterally through the plate material so that reflections are obtained from the center bore radius.

Normal reflections will then be seen from the comers of the keyways. These reflections are predictable in distance and rate of occurrence, with abnormalities such as cracking branching out from the keyway being detectable as an abnormal response. A second examination is performed when the sound is projected laterally towards the other remaining gauge holes, for evidence of cracking emanating from the bores of the holes and plate material between the holes. The third examination is commonly referred to as the "Periphery examination. In this test, standard contact transducers are placed on the outer edges of both upper and lower flywheel plates. The sound is directed laterally into the plate material for examination of the material between the peripheral holes and the plate outer edge.

3.3 Access and Exposure Access to the exam surfaces is made possible by permanent walkways or by erecting scaffolding. Radiation exposure depends greatly on the amount of pump motor work being conducted nearby and can range from 20-100 millirern/hour.

3.4 Inspection History A survey was conducted of historical plant inservice inspection results, and &tl member utilities contributed. The flywheel population surveyed was a tot,d of 217. A total of 729 examination results were reported, and no indications which would affect the integrity of the flywheels were found. These results are summarized on a p.lant by plant basis in Table 3-1. A summary of recordable indications is provided in Table 3-2. It is interesting to note from Table 3-2 that a number of indicationis in the form of nicks, gashes, etc. were found at the keyway area, having been created lby the act of removing or reassembling the flywheel. These were all dispositioned as not taffecting flywheel integrity. but are clear evidence that disassembly for inspection and reassembly actually can produce damage.

Indications were found at the Haddam Ne.ck plant. in *the weHd used to join the two flywheel plates together. The indications identified were as;sociated with this seal weld and resulted in no radially oriented cracking. and no impact on the integrity of the flywheels. A detailed summary of this finding is given in Appendix B Sample flywheel inspection procedures are provided in Appendix C.

SECTION 4 STRESS AND FRACTURE EVALUATION All of the Oywheels were subjected to a detailed stress and fracture evaluation, which is summarized in this section. To avoid repetition, the flywheels were grouped by geometry, and the logic for this grouping is explained in Section 4.1. There are two possible failure mechanisms. ductile and brittle, which must be considered in flywheel evaluation and these are discussed in detail in evaluations reponed earlier (References 2 and 3 ). Figure 4-1 shows the results of a typical flywheel overspeed evaluation, where the flywheel failure speed was calculated for a range of postulated crack depths. Note that the brittle failure limit governs for large flaws. The limiting speed increases for small flaws. Using brittle fracture considerations alone, the limiting speed would approach infinity for vanishingly small flaws.

For these situations, the ductile failure limit governs. a finding that has been proven by scale model tests whose results are reponed in Reference 2.

Regulatory Guide 1.14, Revision l, Section C, Subsection 2 (see Appendix A, or Reference I). provides the following regulatory position for flywheel design:

a. The flywheel assembly, including any speed-limiting and antirotation devices, the shaft, and the bearings, should be designed to withstand normal conditions.

anticipated transients. the design basis loss-of-coolant accident, and the Safe Shutdown Earthquake loads without loss of structural integrity.

b. Design speed should be at least 125% ofnormal speed but not less than the speed that could be attained during a turbine 01,*erspeed transient. Normal speed is defined as synchronous speed of the a.c. drive motor at 60 hertz.
c. An analysis should be conducted to predict the critical speed for ductile failure of the flywheel. The methods and limits of paragraph F-1323.J(b) in Section Ill ofthe ASME Code are acceptable. Ifanother method is used, justification should be provided. The analysis should be submitted to the NRC staff for evaluation.
d. An analysis should be conducted to predict the critical speed for nonductile failure ofthe flywheel. Justification should be given for the stress analysis method. the estimate of flaw size and location, which should take into account initial flaw size and flaw growth in service, and the values offracture toughness assumed for the material. The analysis should be submitted to the NRC staff for evaluation.

m:\3356w.wpf lb-111196 4-1

e. An analysis should be conducted to predict the critical speed for excessive deformation of the flywheel. The analysis should be submitted to the NRC staff for evaluation. (Excessive deformation means any deformation such as an enlargement of the bore that could cause separation directly or could cause an unbalance of the flywheel leading to structural failure or separation of the flywheel from the shaft. The calculation of deformation should employ elastic*

plastic methods unless it can be shown that stresses remain within the elastic range).

f The normal speed should be less than one*half of the lowest of the critical speeds calculated in regulatory positions C.2.c. d. and e above.

g. The predicted LOCA overspeed should be less than the lowest of the critical speeds calculated in regulatory positions C.2.c. d. and e above.

These guidelines will be reviewed in this section, for all the flywheels covered by this report, and the results tabulated.

4.1 Selection of Flywheel Groups for Evaluation From the flywheel dimensional information provided in Table 2* l of this report, six flywheel groups were selected for evaluation, which encompass the range of domestic flywheel dimensions covered by this report. These groups are as follm;.,,s:

4.2 Ductile Failure Analysis The capacity of a structure to resist ductile failure with sufficient margin of safety during faulted conditions can be demonstrated by meeting the faulted condition criteria of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. The faulted condition stress limits for elastic analysis, Pm and Pm + P11, are taken as 0.7 Su and 1.05 Su , where Su is the minimum specified ultimate tensile stress of the material. As in Reference 2. 80 ksi was used for Su , which is the minimum specified value for A-533 Grade B, Class I steel. The stresses in the RCP flywheel. neglecting local stress concentrations such as holes and keyways. can be calculated by the following equations (Reference 2):

It should be noted that the circumferentia 1 stress peaks at the flywheel bore and keyway locations and decreases approximately linearly thereafter in the radial direction.

_8 As was performed in the Reference 2 evaluation. a ductile failure limiting speed was determined for each flywheel group selected for evaluation. assuming that cracks are not present and neglecting the local stress effects from holes and keyways. Limiting speeds were also calculated considering the reduced cross sectional area resulting from the keyway, and from assuming that cracks may be present. Cracks were assumed to emanate radially from the keyway. through the full thicknes of the flywheel. The results of these calculations are provided in the following table.

At the minimum calculated limiting speed of 3155 rpm (assuming cracks are not present), the normal speed must be less than 1577 rpm. Since the normal operating flywheel speed is 1200 rpm, item 2f of the Regulatory Guide is satisfied for ductile failure with no cracks present. Assuming that a rather large crack of IO" depth is present, item 2f is still satisfied for ductile failure since one-half of the lowest calculated critical speed (2698 rpm) is 1349 rpm, which is higher than the normal operating flywheel speed of 1200 rpm.

Per item 2g of Section C of the Regulatory Guide, the predicted LOCA overspeed should be less than the lowest of the critical speeds calculated for ductile failure, nonductile failure and excessive deformation. Since the predicted LOCA overspeed is in all cases less han 1500 rpm, and the minimum calculated limiting velocity for ductile failure is 3155 rpm, item 2g of the Regulatory Guide is satisfied for ductile failure, assuming no cracks are present.

Assuming that a rather large crack of IO" length is present, item 2g is still satisfied for ductile failure since the lowest calculated critical speed (2698 rpm) is higher than the LOCA overspeed of 1500 rpm Therefore, the Regulatory Guide acceptance criteria for ductile failure of the flywheels are satisfied.

C = radial location of crack tip (inches)

V = Poisson's ratio (0.3)

In the Reference 2 analysis, the keyway radial length was initially assumed to be included as part of the total crack length for conservatism. Using the closed form solution, a nonzero value of stress intensity was obtained for a zero crack length (i.e., c = a + keyway radial length), as would be expected, since the keyway itself was in essence considered to be a crack. To eliminate this undue conservatism for short crack lengths, finite element analysis was performed. It was shown that cracks emanating from the center of the keyway yielded higher stress intensity factors than cracks emanating from the keyway comer, and that a zero length crack resulted in a zero stress intensity factor. The finite element analysis results were in close agreement with the closed form solution for crack lengths larger than about 1.0 inch.

It was also shown in the Reference 2 analysis that the ductile failure mode controls for smaller crack lengths (less than 1.15 inches for the particular flywheel evaluated), and that m\33S6w.wpf:lb-l I I 196 4-6

nonductile failure controls for larger crack lengths. Therefore, the closed form solution was used for calculation of the stress intensity factors in this report, keeping in mind that it is overly conservative for small cracks. (However, small cracks are controlled by the ductile failure mode).

To envelope the range of RTNor values for the flywheel materials, an upper and lower bound value of 0°F and 60° F were used in this report. The lower bound fracture toughness for ferritic steels was calculated by the following equation (Refecence 4 ):

Kie = 33.2 + 20.734 exp[0.02 (T - RT,mr>l This resulted in fracture toughness values of 117 ksi Vinch and 58.5 ksi Vinch for RTNOT values of 0° F and 60 °F, respectively, at an ambient temperature of 70° F. The ambient temperature used for the fracture evaluation represents a much lower temperature than would be expected in the containment building during normal plant operating conditions (typically l00°F to 120° F), and is therefore conservative with respect to nonductile failure analysis.

At the maximum flywheel overspeed condition of 1500 rpm, the following critical crack lengths were calculated for cracks emanating radially from the keyway. Note that an intermediate RTNor value of 30° F (K1c = 79.3 ksi ..Jinch) is included in the table.

Note: Crack length is measured radially from the keyway, and percentage through flywheel is calculated as the crack length divided by the radial length from the keyway to the flywheel outer radius.

m:\3JS6w.wpf: lb-111196 4-7

As shown in the above table, the criLical crack lengths are quite large, even when considering higher values of RTNor and a lower than expected operating temperature.

4.3.1 Fatigue Crack Growth To estimate the magnitude of fatigue crack growth during plant life, an initial radial crack length of l 0% of the way through the flywheel (from the keyway to the flywheel outer radius) was conservatively assumed. The fatigue crack growth rate may be characterized in terms of the range of applied stress intensity factor, and is generally of the form (Reference 4):

da = C (&Kt O I dN where da/dN = crack growth rate (inches/cycle) n = slope of the log (da/dN) versus log (.1K1 )

Co = scaling constant The fatigue crack growth behavior is affected by the R ratio (11/.) and the environment.

Reference fatigue crack growth behavior of carbon and low alloy ferritic steels exposed to an air environment is provided by the above equation with n = 3.07 and C0 = 1.99 x 10- 10 S. (S is a scaling parameter to account for the R ratio and is given by S = 25.72 (2.88 - R)"3*07 where O R < l. Since the maximum stress intensity range occurs between RCP shutdown (zero rpm) and the normal operating speed of approximately 1200 rpm, the R ratio is zero, and S = I). The f atigue crack growth rate for the flywheels may therefore be estimated by da

= 1.99 x 10-10 (&K/01 dN Assuming 6000 cycles of RCP starts and stops for a 60 year plant life (typical for RCP design including te potential for extended plant life, and conservative for actual operation),

the estimated radial crack growth is as shown below:

4.4 Excessive Deformation Analysis The change in the bore radius (a) and the outer radius (b) of the flywheel at the overspeed condition may be estimated by the following equations (Reference 6):

rut = POT [(3 + v) b 2 + (I - v) a 2 1 4 386.4 E 6b = POT [() - v) b 2 + (3 + v) a 2 1 4 386.4 E where a = bore radius (inches) b = outer radius (inches) p = flywheel material density (0.283 lbJcubic inch)

(I) = flywheel angular speed (radians per second)

= Young's modulus (30 x 106 psi)

V = Poisson's ratio (0.3) m:\33S6w.wpf: lb-111196 4-9

At the flywheel overspeed condition of 1500 rpm (157.08 radians/second), the change in the bore radius and the outer radius is calculated as shown below:

Table 4-5: Flywheel Deformation at 1500 rpm CHANGE IN CHANGE IN FLYWHEEL BORE RADIUS OUTER RADIUS GROUP (INCH) (INCH)

As deformation is proportional to <.t>2, this represents an increase of 56% over the normal operating deformation. This increase would not result in any adverse conditions.

such as excessive vibrational stresses leading to crack propagation, since the flywheel assemblies are typically shrunk fit to the flywheel shaft, and the deformations are negligible.

4.5 Summary of Stress and Fracture kesults The integrity evaluations presented in this section have shown that the reactor coolant pump flywheels have a very high tolerance for the presence of flaws. The results obtained here are even better than those obtained in earlier evaluations, because the application of leak before break has demonstrated that flywheel overspeed events are limited to less than 1500 rpm.

There are no significant mechanisms for inservice degradation of the flywheels, since they are isolated from the primary coolant environment. Analyses presented in this section have shown there is no significant deformation of the flywheels even at maximum overspeed conditions. Fatigue crack growth calculations have shown that for 60 years of operation, crack growth from large postulated flaws in each of the flywheel groups is only a few mils. Therefore the flywheel inspections completed prior to service are sufficient to ensure their integrity during service. In fact, the most likely source of inservice degradation is damage to the keyway region which could occur during disassembly or reassembly for inspection.

SECTIONS RISK ASSESSMENT: EFFECT OF INSPECTIONS To investigate the effect of flywheel inspections on the risk of failure, a structural reliability ; .nd risk assessment was performed for each of the flywheel groups selected for evaluation in Sectior. 4. A 40 year plant life including the potential for an extended plant life of 60 years, and 12 mr ,Uh operating cycles were assumed for the evaluation. The following subsections describe t'.ae methodology used and the results of this assessment.

5.1 Method of Calculating Failure Probabilities The probability of failure of the RCP flywheel as a function of operating time t, Pr(t lt), is calculated directly for each set of input values using Monte-Carlo simulation with importance sampling. The Monte-Carlo simulation does not force the calculated distribution of time to failure to be of a fixed type (e.g. Weibull, Log-normal or Extreme Value). The actual failure distribution is estimated based upon the distributions of the uncenainties in the kt"y structural reliability model parameters and plant specific input parameters. lmponance sampling, as described by Witt (Reference 7), is a variance reduction technique to greatly reduce the number of trials required for calculating small failure probabilities. In this very effective technique, random values are selected from the more severe high or low regions of their distributions so as to promote failure. However, when failure is calculated, the count is corrected to account for the lowrr probability of simultaneously obtaining all of the more severe random values.

To apply this simulation method to reactor pump flywheel (RPFW) failure, the existing Westinghouse PROF (probability of failure) Software System (object library) is combined with the problem-specific structural analysis models described in Section 4.3. The PROF library provides standard input and output, including plotting, and probabilistic analysis capabilities (e.g. random number generation, imponance sampling). The result is the executable program RPFWPROF.EXE for calculation of pump flywheel failure probability with time. The failure mode being simulated by the program is an initial flaw. undetected during pre-service inspection, growing by fatigue crack growth due to pump startup and shutdown until a critical length is obtained. The critical length is that which causes the flaw stress intensity factor due to pump overspeed during the design limiting event to exceed the fracture toughness of the flywheel material.

The Westinghouse PROF Software Library, which was used to generate the RPFWPROF program, has been verified and benchmarked in a number of ways. Table 5-1 provides a comparison of probabilities from hand calculation for simple models where the only random variables are the initial and limiting crack depths. The crack growth due to two independent mechanisms is deterministic (variables are constant). As can be seen. the W-PROF calculated values agree very well (less than 4% error) for a number of different distribution,; and with the effects of imponance sampling.

The calculation of failure probability using the W-PROF methods and importance sampling was also compared to that calculated by an ahemativr. method for more complex models. The more complex model also included the uncertainties in growth rate, which were also a function of the crack depth.

The alternative method was the @RISK add-in for Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheets (Reference 8). As seen in Figure 5-1, the comparison of calculated probabilities is excellent at the low probability values, where importance sampling is nonnally used.

In the verification of the simplified piping fracture mechanics (SPFM) structural reliability programs for risk based inspection (Reference 9). the calculated probabilities for thennal transient induced fatigue crack growth were compared with results from the pc-PRAISE program (Reference JO).

PRAISE. which was developed by Lawrence Livennore National Laboratory for the NRC. is the nuclear industry's standard for calculating the structural reliability of piping. As shown in Figure 5-2, the comparison of calculated leak probabilities with the number of operating cycles, without the effects of inspection. is excellent for both the SPFMPROF and SPFMSRRA programs. The SPFMSRRA program uses Westinghouse developed approximations to estimate the changes in probability with time due to changes in the input variables relative to a reference case. The reference case is initially calculated using the SPFMPROF Program, which is the same type of program as RPFNPROF.

When the same inservice inspection frequency and accuracy are used, Figure 5-3 shows that essentially the same failure probabilities are calculated by pc-PRAISE, SPFMPROF and SPFMSRRA.

Therefore, it is concluded that the Westinghouse methods employed in calculating probabilities with m \3)56w.wpf ll>-111196 5-2

the RPFWPROF.EXE program have been sufficiently verified and benchmarked for lhe assessment of pump flywheel failure risk and the effects of inspection.

The input parameters to the RPFWPROF program are described in Table 5-2. Variables I to 4 and 9 to 17 are the key input parameters needed for failure probability calculation, as idenlified in Section 4 3. Their usage in the program is specified as shown in the last column of Table 5-2 and schemalically in lhe tlow chart of Figure 5-4. "Initial" conditions do not change with time, "Steady State" is not needed for RPFWPROF, "Transient" calculates fatigue crack growth and "Failure" checks to see if the accumulated crack length exceeds the critical length.

In a Monte-Carlo type simulation, the failure probability at a given time is approximated as the ratio of the number of failures at thal time to the total number of trials. For inservice inspections, this ratio is modified tc reflect the fact that only those cracks that are not m\3JS6w wpf.lb-111196 5-3

detected will remain to possibly cause failure!. That is. a component with a detected crack is assumed to be repaired or replaced, returning it to a good-as-new condition. This modified ratio for ISi is expressed by the following equation:

Pr, = Summation [ PrN0(n) F(n) J / N n = I to N Where:

Pr. = the approximate probability of failure, PrN0(n) = the ISi non-detection probability for the nth trial, F(n) = the failure weight for the mh trial (e.g. I if failure occurs and O otherwise for no imponance sampling), and N = the total number of trials (simulations).

The non-detection probability normally varies as a function of time since it depends upon the size of the crack at the tin1 the ISi is performed. That is, the larger the crack size. the lower the probability of not detecting it. This is also expressed in equation form for the Ith inservice inspection as:

PrN0(n) = Product [ PrN0(n,'1) ]

i = I to I Where:

PrN0(n.) = the probability of non-detection for the inservice inspection of weld n at time t,.

These equations, which are used in the simplified model for the effect of ISi. are consistent with those described in the pc-PRAISE Code User's Manual (Reference JO). They are somewhat optimistic since there is no correlation between successive inspections of the same material, which may systematically occur in actual practice. Tht parameters needed to describe thi= selected ISi program are the time of the first inspection. the frequency of subsequent inspections (expressed as the number of fuel or operating cycles between inspections) and the probability of non-detection as a function of crack length. For the reactor pump flywheel, the non-detection probability, which is independent of crack length, is simply one minus a constant value of detection probability, variable 7 in Table 5-2. An increase in failure probability due to pump inspection (chance of incorrect disassembly and reassembly) was included in the ISi model but not used (variable 8 set to zero).

The median input values and their uncenainties for each of the parameters of Table 5-2 are shown in Table 5-3. The median is the value at 50% probability (half above and half below this value); it i!>

also the mean (average) value for symmetric distributions, like the normal (bell-shaped curve) distribution. Uncertainties are based upon expen engineering judgement and previous structural m:\33S6w.wpf:lb-1111% 5-4

reliability modeling experience. For example. the fracture toughness for initiation as a function of the reference nil-ductility transition temperature and the uncenainties on thse parameters are based upon prior probabilistic fracture mechanics analyses of the pressure vessel (Reference 11). Also note that the stress intensity factor calculation for cral..'k growth and failure used the flywheel keyway radial length (variable 17) in addition to the calculated flaw length. This allowed the probabilistic models to be checked using the results of the conservative deterministic evaluations of Tables 4-3 and 4-4.

Table 5-4 provides sample output from the RPFWPROF Program for the values of the input variables in Table 5-3. The first page of the output describes the input that is used for the calculations. The "SHIFT MV/SD" column indicates how many standard deviations (SD) the median value CMV) is shifted for importance sampling (Reference 7). The second page of the output provides the change in failure probability per fuel ( operating) cycle and the cumulative probability. The deviation on the m \33S6w wpf I b-111196 5.5

cumulative total that is output is the deviation due to the Monte-Carlo simulation only. Figure S-5 showc; the computer generated plot comparing the calculated reactor pump failure probabilities with and without the effects of inservice inspe"l.ion. As can he seen, the effect of ISi. even with a 50'! probability of detection, is very small. This is because the failure probability is not changing much with time; therefore, the rate of incre cannot he significantly reduced even for a perfect inspection with HX)% prohahility detection.

S.2 Evaluation of Risk for RCP Flywheels Evaluations were performed to detennine the effect on the probability of flywheel failure for continuing the current inservice inspections over the life of the plant and for discontinuing the inspections. Since most plants have been in operation for at least ten years. the evaluation calculated the effects of the 1m,pections being discontinued after ten years.

It is imponant to keep in mind that the probability of failure determined by these evaluations is only a calculated parameter. The reason for this is that the evaluation conservatively assumes that the probability of a flaw existing after pre,ervice inspection is 10%, and that the ISi flaw detection probability is only 50%. ln reality, most preservice and ISi flaws would be detectcJ, especially for the larger flaw depths which may lead to failure. Therefore, the calculated values are very conservative.

(The effects of some important parameters on the calculated probability of failure are discussed later in Section 5.3). The most important result of th" evaluation is the change in calculated probability of failure from continuing to discontinuing the inspections after ten years (cycles) of plant life.

As shown in Figures 5-6 through 5-1 1, the effect of inservice inspection on failure probability has littl\! effect on minimizing the potential for failure of the flywheel. The results of ,his assessment are summarized as follows for a plant life of 40 and 60 years:

Table S-S: Probability of Failure after 40 and 60 Years with and without lnservice Inspection Probability of Oywheel failure Probability of flywheel with ISi prior to failure with lI prior to 10  % Increase in failure Flywheel illld after years and without ISi after probability for eliminating Group 10 years 10 years inspections At 40 years At 60 years At 40 years At 60 Years l 2.45E-7 2.50E-7 2.5 7E-7 2 5 2 l .43E-7 l . 45E-7 l .47E-7 l 3 lO l .OOE-7 l .04E-7 l .OSE-7 4 5 14 2.98E-l0 2.98E-10 2.98E-l0 0 0 15 l. l SE-8 l .l 8E-8 l .2 2E-8 3 6 16 6.92E-9 7.0 2E-9 7.02E-9 I I It can be seL n above that continuing inspection after IO years has essentially no impact on the failure probabilities.

5.3 Sensitivity Study A sensitivity study was perfonned to detennine the effect of some important flywheel risk assessment parameters on the probability of failure. Flywheel group 10 was arbitrarily chosen for the study. The parctmeters evaluated included the probability of detectivn. the initial flaw length. and the initial flaw length uncenainty. The results of this study are summarized in the table below. Note that this study was perfonned for a flywheel design life of 40 years.

Table 5-6: Effect of Flywheel Risk Parameters on Failure Probability Probabiliay of Probability of flywheel failure flywheel failure after 40 years with after 40 years with ISi prior to 10 Description of flywheel risk ISi prior to and years and without parameter varied after 10 years ISi after 10 years Base Case I .OOE-7 l .04E-7 Probability of Detection of I0% l .03E-7 l .04E-7 Probability of Detection of 80% l .OOE-7 l .04E-7 Initial flaw length of 0.05 inches 4.57E-8 4.74E-8 Initial flaw length of 0.20 inches 2.97E-7 3.0IE-7 llength 3 Sigma Bound Factor of l 6.40E-8 6.46E-8 llength 3 Sigma Bound Factor of 20 1.94E-7 I.95E-7 The values for the base case, shown in Table 5-6 above are for ... I0% probability of a flaw existing after preservice inspection. an initial flaw length of 0.10 inch ( 1.006 inch with keyway). an initial flaw length (llength) 3-sigma bound factor of 10. an initial inservice inspection at three years of plant life and subsequent inspections at four year intervals. and a probability of detection of 50% per inservice inspection (see Table 5-5. flywheel group 10).

The flaw detection probability was varied from 50% to IO'k and 80%. Failure probability increased approximately 3% for a decrease in flaw detection probability from 50% to 1O'k. Failure probability did not change for an increase in flaw detection probability from 50% to 80%. Therefore, flaw detection probability. which is a measure of how well the mspections are performed, has essentially no effect on flywheel failure probability.

The initial flaw length was varied from O.IO inch to 0.05 inch and 0.20 inches. Failure probability decreased by 54% for a decrease in initial flaw length from 0.10 inch to .J.05 inch. Failure probability tripled k1 an increase in initial flaw length from 0.10 inch to 0.20 inhes. Therefore, initial flaw length does affect flywheel failure probability. but the failure r.1robability is small, even for larger m \.H11o wpf lb-1111% 5-9

initial flaw lengths. Moreover. the probability of the larger ,law being missed during preservice inspetion would be even smaller than the assumed IO percent.

The initial flaw length 3-sigma bound factor was varied from l O to 3 and 20. Failure probability decreased about 38% for a decrease in the 3-sigma bound factor from IO to 3. Failure probability increased about 90% for an increase in the factor from l fl to 20. Therefore. the uncenainty in the deviation factor does affect flywheel failure pro*ability, but fai,tue probability is still small. even for a higher 3-sigma bound factor of 20.

5.4 Risk Ament Conclusions An evaluation of flywheel structur,tl reliability was performed for each of the flywheel groups selected for evaluation in Section 4, using methods which have been sufficiently verified and benchmarked.

Using conservative input values for preservice flaw existence. initial flaw length, inservice flaw detection capability and RCP start/stop transients, it was shown that flywheel inspections beyond ten years of plant life have no significant benefit on the risk of flywheel failure. The reasons for this are that most flaws which could lead to failure would be detected during preservice inspection or at worst early in the plant life. and crack growth is negligible over the plant life. It should be noted that the effect on potential flywheel failure from damage through disassembly and reassembly for inspection has not been evaluated. It is believed that this effect could demonstrate that the risk of failure by continuing flywheel inspections is the same as )r greater than the risk by eliminating the inspections.

Sensitivity studit.::; showed that improved flaw detection capability and more inspections result in a small relati\e change in calculated fail1

  • t probability. Failure probability was most affected by the initial flaw length and its uncenainty. These parameters are determined by the accuracy of the preservice inspection. The uncenainty could be reduced using the results from the first inservice inspection but would probably not change much during subsequent inspections.

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS Reactor coolant pump flywheel inspections were implemented as a result of United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulatory Guide 1.14. which was published in 1971 and revised in 1975.

  • Flywheels are carefully designed and manufactured from excellent quality steel, which has a high fracture toughness.
  • Flywheel overspeed is the critical loading, but leak-before-break has limited the maximum speed to less than 1500 rpm.
  • Flywheel inspections have been perfonned for 20 years, with no indications of service induced flaws.
  • Flywheel integrity evaluations show a very high flaw tolerctnce for the flywheels.
  • Crack extension over a 60 year service life is negligible.
  • Structural reliability studies have shown that eliminating inspections after IO years of plant life will not significantly change the probability of failure.
  • Inspections result i11 man-rem exposure and the potential for flywheel damage during assembly and reassembly.

Based on the above conclusions. continued inspections of reactor coolant pump flywheels are not necessary. Furthermore. overall plant safety could be increased by eliminating these inspections, because man rem doses would be lowered, and the potential for flywheel damage during disassembly and reassembly for inspection would oe eliminated.

APPENDIX A REGULATOR\' POSITION The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued Regulatory Guide 1.14, (Reference l) to describe acceptable methods to ensure RCP flywheel integrity. Under Section C ot the regulatory guide, the NRC Regulatory position is defined. This ponion of the regulatory guide is provided below.

I. Matrri1/ and Fabrication

a. The flywheel material should be of closely controlled quality. Plates should conform to ASTM A20 and should be produced by the vacuum-melting and degassing process or the electroslag remelting process. Plate material should be cross-rolled to a rato of at least I to 3.
b. Fracture toughness and tensile propenies of each plate of a flywheel material should be check. l bv tests that yield results suitable to confirm the applicability to that flywheel of the r"r,,enies used in the fracture analyser. called for in regulatory positions C.2.c, d, ande.
c. All flame-cut surfaces should be removed by machining to a depth of at least 12 mm (112. inch) below the flame cut surface.
d. Welding. including tack welding and repair welding. should not be permitred in the finished flywheel unless the welds are inspectable and considered as potential sources of flaws in thtt fracturtt analysis.
2. De.fign
a. The flywheel assembly. including any spud-limiting and antirotation devices, tht' shaft, and the bearings, should btt designed to withstand normal conditions, anticipated transients, the design basis loss-of-coolant accident, and the Safe Shutdown Eanhquoke loads without loss of structural integrity.
b. Design speed should be at least 125% of normal speed but not less than the speed that could btt attained during a turbine overspeed transient. Normal speed is dttfined as synchronous speed of the a.c. drit1e motor at 60 henz.
c. An analysis should be conducted to predict the critical speed for ductile failure of the flywheel. Th<' methods and limits of paragraph F-1323. l(b) in Section Ill of the ASME Code are acceptable. If another method is used, justification should be provided. The analysis should be submitted to the Np r staff for evaluation.

m:\33 ... w.wpf:lb-111196 A-1

d. An analysis should be conducted to predict the critical speed for nonductile failure of the flywheel. Justification should be given for the stress analysis method. the estimate of flaw size and location, which should take imo account initial flaw size and flaw growth in service, and the values of fracture toughness assumed for the material. The analysis should be submitted to the NRC staff for evaluation.
e. An analysis should be conducted to predict the critical speed for excessive deformation of the flywheel. The analysis should be submitted to the NRC staff for evaluation. (Excessive deformation means an)' deformation such as an enlargement of the bore that could cause separation directly or could cause an unbalance of the flywheel leading to structural failure or separation of the flywheel from the shaft. The calculation of deformation should employ elastic-plastic methods unless it can be shown that stresses remain within the elastic range).

f The normal speed should be less than one-half of the lowest of the critical speeds calculated in regulatory positions C.2.c, d. and e above.

g. The predicted LOCA overspeed should be less than the lowest of the critical speeds calculated in regulatory positions C.2.c, d, and e above.
3. Testing Each flywheel assembly should be spin tested at the design speed of the flywheel.
4. Inspection
a. Following the spin test described in regulatory position C.3, each finished flywheel should receive a check of critical dimensions and a nondestructive examination as follows:

(I) Areas of higher stress concentrations, e.g. bores. uyways, splines, and drilled holes, and surfaces adjacent to these areas on the finished flywheel should be examined for su,fau defects in accordance with paragraph NB-2545 or NB-2546 of Section Ill of the ASME Code using the procedures of paragraph NB-2540. No linear indications more than 1.6 mm (///6 inch) long, other than laminations, should be permi1ted.

( 2) Each finished flywheel should be subjected to a I 00% volumetric examination by ultrasonic methods using procedures and acceptance criteria specified in paragraph NB-2530 (/or plates) or paragraph NB-2540 (for forgings) of Section Ill of the ASME Code.

m:\3356w.wpf lb-111196 A-2

b. lnservice inspection should be performed for each flywheel as follows:

(I) An in-place ultrasonic volumetric examination of the areas of higher stress concentration at the bore and keyway at approximately 3 year intervals during the refueling or maintenance shutdown coinciding with the inservice inspection schedule as required by Section XI of the ASME Code.

(2) A surface examination of all exposed surfaces and complete ultrasonic volumetric examination at approximately JO year intervals, during the plant shutdown coinciding with the inservice inspection schedule as required by Section XI of the ASME Code.

(3) Examination procedures should be in accordance with the requirements of Subanicle /WA-2200 of Section XI of the ASME Code.

(4) Acceptance criteria should conform to the recommendations of regulatory position C.2.f (5) If the examination and evaluation indicate an increase in flaw size or growth rate greater than predicted for the service life of the flywheel, the results of the examination and evaluation should be submitted to the staff for evaluation.

APPENDIX B HISTORICAL INSPECTION INFORMATION: HADDAM NECK The following chronological listing shows the results of reactor coolant pump flywheel inspections at the Haddam Neck Plant:

1970 - Prior to the April 1970 refueling outage, Westinghouse and the AEC, became concerned about the possibility of cracks being initiated at or propagating from the interior comers of the keyway areas in RCP flywheels. Ultrasonic examinations were performed during the refueling outage on all four RCP flywheels and revealed a <5% amplitude indication on RCP flywheel #4 in the bore keyway area and it was not recordable. The indication was recorded by Westinghouse personnel purely for future reference purposes.

RCP flywheel #I was liquid penetrant inspected in the bore area after it had been removed from the shaft and no indications were observed.

Total radiation exposure for these first inspections was 1.038 Person REM and included examination technicians, and engineering and maintenance personnel. This amount of personnel radiation exposure has continued to be expended to complete these inspections when they were required during the last 25 years.

1971 - In April 1971, the Inservice Inspection Program Requirements of ASME Section XI, were put into the Plant Technical Specifications. Requirements were additionally added for RCP flywheels, outside of Section XI Requirements, based on AEC request.

Technical Specification Requirement - One different flywheel shall be examined visually and I 00% volumetrically at every other refueling shutdown.

The AEC requested that all four flywheels be examined at the next refueling outage before this inspection sampling program could be put into effect.

During the May 1971 refueling outage, all four flywheels were inspected. The bore seal weld area of RCP flywheel #4 was found to be cracked. The cracks were identified in the bore seal weld and it's associated heat affected zone. Cracked areas were removed by grinding and weld repaired.

Review of the inspection data shows that these cracks may have been identified by the ultrasonic examination indication reported in 1970, but the data is not conclusive. One point that does stand out is that the material of the RCP flywheel #4 is Grade T-1 Boiler Plate and is different than the other three flywheels which were fabricated to a Westinghouse specification.

m:\33Sbw.wpf:lb-111196 8-1

1973 - During the 1973 refueling outage, the inspection sampling program now required by Plant Technical Specifications began. RCP flywheels #1 and #4 were examined. Both flywheels were removed from their shafts. Cracks were discovered in the RCP flywheel

  1. 4 bore seal weld area emanating from the weld repairs and in the existing seal weld areas.

Westinghouse was contacted and recommended that the bore seal weld and associated heat affected zone oe removed by grindiJ!&. Ultrasonic and liquid penetrant examinations were perfonned following the grinding repair and no indications were identified. Additionally, liquid penetrant examinations were perfonned in the bore pawl areas of both RCP flywheels. Liquid penetrant indications were identified in RCP ftywheel #1 at two bore pawl areas. These indications were detennined to be from mechanical sunace marks and were dispositioned as acceptable.

1980 - During this time frame inspections continued under the sampling program provided in to 1986 Plant Technical Specifications with continuing effons by CY APCO to meet a request by the NRC to comply with the inspection requirements specified in Regulatory Guide 1.14.

No further flaws/cracks were identified in any of the flywheels. In 1980, one of the flywheels had liquid penetrant indications in the bore keyway areas, but were once again detennined to be from mechanical surface marks and dispositioned as acceptable.

1986 - Plant Technical Specifications were c hanged under Amendment No. 87 !!! specifically include reference to Regulatory Guide 1.14 inspection requirements.

!987 - During this refueling outage all four of the RCP flywheels were completely removed from the motors and sent to Westinghouse for a 10-year refurbishment. RCP flywheel

  1. I and #2 were examined to the requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.14 and magnetic panicle lndlcatlons were found in the seal baffle surface fillet weld area of RCP nvwheel #2. These indications/flaws/cracks were removed by grinding, weld repaired and reinspected until no indications were found. RCP flywheel #3 was not required to be inspected per Regulatory Guide J .14 requirements. The RCP ftywheel #4 bore seal weld area that had been ground out in 1973 was machined smooth. liquid penetrant inspected, and no indications were observed.

1988 :o cracks have been identified on any of the RCP flywheels in the critical areas of the bore and keyways since 1973.

Present No cracks have exceeded the critical naw size needed to cause a catastrophic failure of our flywheels in a nonnal operating overspeed condition.

All of the 1973 RCP ftywheel #4 cracks were of a limited depth approximately 1/2" deep and the bore seal weld and heat affected zone is now totally removed.

Note: Additional details are available in Docket No. 50-213, B15320, dated August 10, 1995.

Ultrasonic Examination of Reactor Coolant Pump Flywheels 0 EXHIBIT 7 STRAIGHT BEAM SCAN,,BEOUIBEMENTS FOR LAMINAR REFLECTORS St raight Beam for Laminar Reflectors (aJI procedure reQu1rement6 apply el(cept when 1uperseded bv this ex hibit).

1 .1 Calibrate the screen range on the calibrat,on standard or other similar metal unc1ard.

1 .2 Select a airect rea1.. screen range which will produce a back reflection of greater than 40%

but less than 100% full screen swnp from the maximum anticip ated exam1nat,on thickness.

i .3 Couple the search unit to the calibration standard and calibrate the screen r anQe by use of the sweep and delay controls.

, .4 Couple the ear::;h unit to the pan being em1ned and adjust the ,nitial back reflection to 80% FSH Ad1ustment of the gain control is permmed during examination in order to maintain tt .e back reflection response.

2.0 RECORDING

2. 1 Record all areas giving 1nd1cations equal to or greater than the remaining back reflection.

2.2 Recording of straight beam laminar tvi:>e reflectors requires recording the locations of all four sides of a rectangle which would contain the ind1catJon extr emities at the required recording level.

2-3 Record all lam,na, indications which produce a reaponse equal to or greater than the remaining back reflection. These dimensions and locations will be used to determ,ne areas of interference wrth the ang beam exam,nation.

2.4 Record all laminar indications where a continuous loH C'f back reflection exits along .ch a continuous indication 1n the same plane. These dimensions and locations wil: be used to determine acceptability of the component tor cominued service.

3.0 SCAN SENSITIVITY 3 1 Ad1ustment to the scan sensrtlVtty may be necessary and shall be considered when recordable laminar reflectors are noted in order to maintain an acceptable back reflection.

Response to NRC Request for Additional Information on WCAP-14535 Item 1:

" Physically, the shrink fil forces can 1- consiMrtd a iniernal pressure acting on tJw inMr bore of the reactor coollw pump (RCP) flywlwl. Thus, ii would accelerale, not re111rd, tJw growth of radial cracks in tJa, uyway area.

'TMse shrwc /ii forces rt shown in that report to 1- capal,k of producing strtssa of comparable magnilUM to those produced by tM centrifugal forct wlwn tM flywlwel was rwaning at tJae normal operating speed.

Respoase to Item l:

The shrink fit r, ,rces do add 10 the stresses at the Oywbeel bore, but fatigue crack growth is approximately proportional th the cube of &be sueu ranae applied durina a given cycle. For the Oywbecl, &be sll'eu ruge ii from the rat condition (zero rpm) to normal operat.ina speed. Therefore, if tbe shrink fit streuea bad been used, the streu ranae would be smaller because lbe shrink fit sll'eua are sipifacandy lower at nonnal operating speed tban at tbe rat condition. Our calculations used a zero stresa slate at rest, wbicb maximized tbe crack growth predictions. The amount of conservatism induced by tbis assumption is discussed below.

Westinghouse bas evaluated tbe effect of sbrint fit forces on crack growdl. Due to tbe large number of flywheels in service, IC1llll shrink fit values were not obtained for eac:b pump, but typical sbrint fit values for Oywbeels which are attacbed direcdy ID the RCP motor shaft arc 0.5 to 1.0 mil on tbe flywheel bore, or 0.00025 incb to 0.0005 inch OD tbe bore radiu. For consavatism, and to be consistent with Combustion Eagineerina Owners Group report SIA-94-080, *ReJuation of Reactor Coolant Pump Flywheel Inspection Requirements,* a shrink fit of 0.0052 incb on tbe bore radius wu imposed for evaluation purposes. This ii approximately one order of mapitude bigber than tbe typical shrink fit for flywheels wbicb are attached clirecdy la die RC- molar abaft. A shrink fit of 0.0125 incb wu used for the spoked Oywbeel, u wu med iD the Combustion En1iDecrin1 Ownen Group report.

Hoop streua control tbc powtb of radially oriented cracks in tbe flywheel. Shrink fit boop stresses for the Oywbeell at ,cs& ue OD the order of one to three times tbe boop strases pl'O'tuced by centrifugal forces alon wben tbe Oywbecls arc ruuina at die normal operatina speed. However, u tbe Oywbeel rotational speed increases, tbe shrink fit boop s&rases decrease, due to the radial powtb of the flywheel bore radius.

'Ibis growdl may be determined by tbe following equation:

  • Youna's modulus (lO x 10' psi)

The total boop streaa may be delenniaed by addina die &brink fit and centrifugal force components. The streuca a& the Oywbed keyway localioa are sbowa in fipre l for Flywheel Group l, wbicb is rcprcscntative of the Beaver Valley Unill 1 and 2 OywbeelL SlrCu plots for &be olber Oywheel poups are similar to figure 1.

la the WCAP-14535 evaluatioa. die maximum 11re11 intensity factor raa1c occurred between RCP shuldown (zero rpm) and die normal operatina apeed. Sbriak fit wu excluded, therefore the R ratio wu zero, 5 WU 1, ud C, WII 1.99 X 1()"11*

Tbcrcfon, Ille scalia1 co1111&11 (c:.> is approximately 3.2 limcs higher than not includin1 sbriDk fiL The ranae of applied hoop 1trr.11 for excluding shrink fit wu at leu& twice that for including shrink fit for all Oywbeel poups. Therefore, &be relalive fatipc aack pow1ll rate for including sbrink fit may be estimated by the followina equa&ioll:

Rate w.1 eh Shr .1nJc l'i. e

  • c 3

  • o, Rate wlehout ShrlnJc i,le The fatigue aack ar<>Wlb rate for including shrink fit is at most 40% er me rate for not including shrink fit, for tbe assumed shrink fit values discussed above. Therefore, &brink fit rewds tbe growth of radial aacks in tbe keyway area. and excluding shrink fit yields conservative fatigue crack growth resulas, as reported in WCAP-14535.

Item 2:

Section 1.1 Prnious Flywlanl /nug,ity Evaluations, Pap 1 TM fatigw analysis is tkpendant on 1M premiu that en equip,,wnt uud for uaminations of RCP fl1WMels at wse facilities is capable of accurauly utecting and sizing 0.24 inch long ,war slllfa<< flaw.

Respoa* to Item 2:

The initial crack length of 0.24 inch wu used in a previous evaluation of RCP flywheel integrity by Babcock and Wilcox (Repon BAW-10040, December 1973, *Reactor C.oolant Pump Assembly Overspeed Analysis"). This length wu assumed to be tbe largest crack that could be missed in nondesuuctive ICSting.

As seen in Table 4-1 of WCAP-14535, crack growth assuming extremely large initial flaw lengths (from 2.04 to 3.28 incbes) wu found ID be insipifantly small over a 60 year extended plant life. In the aack growth evaluation, 6000 RCP Slart/s&op cycles were US11med, wbicb is consavative wilb respect to actual operation. This evaluation suge111 that very wae initial Oaws can be tolerated. Such Daws are of a size wbicb arc expeciCQ ID be delectable wilb the examination procedure of Attachment A.

An alternative method of evaluating this iaue is ID derme an "allowable" flaw size based on the application of a margin to the calculated aitical Oaw size. lbe approach used here is lo apply lbe margins of ASME Section XI. Tbe ra11U1 of this approach are pn,vided in Table 1 below. In &his tabl crack length is measured radially from lbe keyway, and percentage through the flywheel is the crack lenglb divided by the radial len1th from &be keyway IO &he Oywbecl outer radius.

Tbe inspectic .. medlodl used for Oywbeels are capable of fmdin1 Oaws mucb smaller lban lbe smallest allowable Daw aa Table 1.

The delec&ability of &be p1e bola at various melll pa&bs displayed in Atlacbmeat 8 indicate &bat &be impeclion methods Uled wr Dywlaecls are capable of finding Daws mucb smaller &ban &bole idenlified in Table 1.

ID Attachment 8, the 1.25 iDcb diameter p1c bola (effec:Uvdy aide drilled bola) were clearly identified at a metal padl wbicla is nearly twice the mew patb dil&uce involved in &be inlpection of the keyway area. II should be aoled &bat it is mnsc:rvativcly es&imated that die effective rcOective surface of a aide drilled bole is a 3<r arc. The reOectivc surface from a 1..25 iDcb pae bole would therefore be 0.33 incll.

This is clearly smaller than the smallest allowable Oaw in Table 1.

It ii imponant to point out lbat most Oywbecls are designed to lose their shrink fit at operating speed.

TIie tbrec teyways mailnain the cenlerin1 of the Oywbeels. wbic:b usura that balance is main&ained. Tbe imposition of a very lqe lhrink fit would be detrimen&al to Oywbecl reliability, because of the difficulty in inslallalion and removal of tbe Oywbeel. 11lil would in &cm detrlct from tbe consistency of assembly.

A conc:crn wa,; raised about aceuive deformation in tbe Replaaory Guide. Exc:euive deformation was dcftned u *any deformation IIICb u an enlaraemcnt of the bore that could cause separation directly or covJd cause an unbalance of the Oywbecl leadiaa to ltnlCtllrll failure or separation of the Oywbeel from the lbafl.

  • Therefore, tbe concern about eKCeUive deformation ii not rclaled ID the loll of shrink fit. but ins&cad relates so the amount of deformation wbicb could cause unbalance or failure.

Our extensive calculations have sbowD dial the speed at wbic:b exceuive deformations could occur is paler 1baD or equal to the limitina Oywbeel speed for ductile failure. The Dywbeel would fail due to plastic ins&ability at speeds of 3155 to 4032 rpm, u lbown ill Table ,.2, page 4.5 of WCAP-14535. Even with IIIJe Daws, the failure speed exceeds 3000 rpm. which is twice the maximum ovcnpeed of 1500 rpm. Therefore, there ii no concern widl aceuive dcformatioa.

Beaver Valley submitted the subject report by letter dated January 24, 1996, as the industry's lead plant oo this issue, and submitted a response to the request for additional information on June 14, 1996. On June 18, 1996, a teleconference between the NRC staff reviewers, Westinghouse Electric Corporation staff: and members of the Beaver Valley staff discussed the June 14, 1996, submittal, in particular Item 2.

This revised response to Item 2 is intended to cluify the interaction and impact of adding the stresses associated with a conservative shrink fit and flaw sizing conservatism associated typically with Section XI acceptance criteria of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. The response to Item 2 and Table 1 has been revised to reflect additional conservatism in the allowable crack lengths for reactor coolant pump flywheels.

Response to NRC Request for Additional Information on WCAP-14535 (Revised Response to Item 2)

Item 2:

Section I. I Previous Flywheel lnteg,*ity Evaluations. Page J -J - The fatigue analysis is dependant on the premise that UI' equipment usedfor examinations of RCP flywheels at these facilities is capable I f accurately detecting and sizing 0. 24 inch long near surface flaw. Provide your basis supporting the probability of detection (POD) for the examinations performed. Provide details on how the POD values were determined. qualified. and used in concluding the assumed size of the initial flaw.

Respoase to Item 2:

The initial crack length of 0.24 inch was used in a previous evaluation of RCP flywheel integrity by Babcock and Wilcox (Report BAW-10040, December 1973. "Reactor Coolant Pump Assembly Overspeed Analysis"). This length was assumed to be the lar&est crack that could be missed in nondestructive testing.

As seen in Table 4-4 of WCAP-14535, crack growth assumina extremely large initial flaw lengths (from 2.04 to 3.28 inches) was found to be insignificantly small over a 60 year extended plant life. In the crack growth evaluation. 6000 RCP start/stop cycles were assumed, which is conservative with respect to actual operation. Shrink fit was not included in the WCAP-14535 evaluation. This is conservative. since shrink fit retards crark growth. as discussed in the Response to Item l , above.

This evaluation suggests that very large initial flaws can be sttucturally tolerated, from a crack growth perspective. AJ noted later in this discussion, the reflective reference area used for calibration of the inspection procedure is nearly an order of magnitude smaller than these structurally stable flaws.

An alternative method of evaluating this issue is to define an "allowable" flaw size based on the application of IIUIIJins to the calculated critical flaw size and the calculated stress intensity factor.

The approach used here is to apply the Code pressure boundary IIUIIJins of ASME Section XI to the flywheel, which is a non-pressure boundary, non-Code component. This application is considered to be extremely conservative. The Section XI criteria are as follows:

Criteria based on flaw size: 8allow 0.1 8crtti"1 (Normal, Upset and Test Conditions) 8allow O.S lcriti"1 (Emergency and Faulted Conditions)

Criteria based on stress intensity factor: K1 Toughness/ 10 (Normal, Upset and Test Conditions)

K1 Toughness/ 2 (Emergency and Faulted Conditions)

The nonnal condition for the flywheel is the nonnal operating speed of 1200 rpm. The faulted condition for the flywheel is the overspeed of l SOO rpm.

The results of this approach are provided in Table l below. Shrink fit is included in these results, since shrink fit increases the magnitude of the hoop stresses {as shown in Figure 1) and consequently, the stress intensity factor. In Table l, crack length is measured radially from the keyway, and percentage through the flywheel is the crack length divided by the radial length from the keyway to the flywheel outer radius.

It is imponant to note that several conservative .,ssumptions were included in the detennination of the allowable crack lengths provided in Table I. These are discussed as follows:

a) The closed fonn solution for the stress intensity factor was used. This solution assumes that the keyway radial length is included in the crack length, which is conservative for smaller crack lengths.

This conservatism is evident in Figure 3 for Flywheel Group 1, which indicates that a zero length crack has a stress intensity factor of about 42 ksi vinch, since a crack of 0.937 inches (the keyway length) is assumed. As shown in Figure 4 of the attached ASME ,echnical paper (Attachment C), finite element analysis shows that the stress intensity factor for cracks less than about one inch long is significantly less than the closed fonn solution would predict. Therefore, there is significant conservatism in the smaller allowable crack lengths ( I inch and smaller) provided in Table 1 above.

b) A conservative shrink fit was assumed, as discussed in the Response to Item 1.

c) A lower bound fracture toughness for ferritic steels was used, as discussed in Section 4.3, page 4-7 of WCAP-14535.

d) The very conservative criteria of Section XI were used. These criteria apply margins of ten (10) to normal, upset and test conditions, and two (2) to emergency and faulted conditions. These margins account for uncertainties in flaw sizing and loading. It should be noted that the loadings associated with the flywheel (centrifugal forces and shrink fit) are well defined and were conservatively applied in this evaluation.

e) The ambient temperature used for the fracture evaluation (700F) represents a much lower temperature than would be expected in the containment building during nomw plant operating conditions (typically lOOOF to 1200f).

f) The stress intensity factor is calculated using the methods of linear elastic fracture mechanics. This method usumes rapid crack extension in a liner elastic material (i.e., material propenies below RTNOr),

The flywheel material would remain highly ductile since the operating temperature is well above the RTNDT of the material. The conservatism usin this method is therefore inherent.

Over the past ten years, the examination techniques employed have improved, particularly with the use of the defocused gage hole probe. The detectability of the gage holes at various metal paths displayed in Attachment B indicate that the inspection methods used for flywheels are capable of finding flaws of the sizes identified in Table l.

In Attachment B, the 1.25 inch diameter gage holes (effectively side drilled holes) were clearly identified at a metal path which is nearly twice the metal path distance involved in the insption of the keyway area. It should be noted that it is conservatively estimated that the effective reflective surface of a side drilled bole is a 300 arc. The reflective surface from a 1.25 inch gage hole would therefore be 0.33 inch.

This length is smaller than all but the smallest of the allowable crack lengths in Table l (0.2 inch, Flywheel Group 15, RTNDr of 600f, 1200 rpm). As discussed above, a significant amount of conservatism is inherent in the smaller allowable crack lengths ( 1 inch and smaller) provided in Table I.

In addition, Flywheel Group 15 includes only one plant, Three Mile Island Unit 1. Per Babcock a.'ld Wilcox Power Generation Group, Nuclear Power Generation Division Topical Report BAW-10040, December 1973, "Reactor Coolant Pump Assembly Overspeed Analysis," the RTNDr value of the flywheel material is estimated to be -1o° F. Therefore, a crack length of greater than one inch would be allowtd, which is larger than the 0.33 inch reflective surface from a 1.25 inch gage hole discussed above.

Therefore, the inspection methods used for flywheels are capable of finding the flaw sizes shown in Table l.

Response to NRC Request for Additional Information on WCAP-14535 RAI Dated July 24, 1996 On July 17, 1996, a meeting with the NRC staff was held to provide information concerning the costs of reactor coolant pump (RCP) motor flywheel inspections, and the frequency of RCP motor disassembly for maintenance. Duquesne Light Company (DLC) personnel discussed actions performed at the Beaver Valley Power Station. The applicability of the responses to the industry as a whole could not be addressed; accordingly, a survey of the flywheel group was conducted.

The results of this survey are discussed below along with an alternative flywheel inspection.

Survey responses were received for 35 of the 57 plants which are covered by WCAP-14535. The results show a wide range of responses to the question of how often RCP motors are disassembled for maintenance, but most are disassembled on an average frequency of about every 8 years. The other two questions concerned the cost and exposure involved with flywheel inspections now being done per Regulatory Guide 1.14 (dollars and man-rem). For inspections with the flywheel in place (not removed from the motor shaft), the average cost and exposure are SS,300 and 0.34 man-rem, respectively. For the flywheel removed from the motor shaft, the average cost and exposure are $28,100 and 0.88 man-rem, respectively.

WCAP-14535 presents a strong technical case for the elimination of RCP flywheel inspections.

This elimination would not affect the frequency of RCP motor maintenance, but would significantly reduce the risk of RCP motor flywheel failure, since the only credible mechanism for flywheel damage is from removal, handling and reassembly, as discussed in WCAP-14535. This potential for damage during handling was also discussed at the meeting, and in response to the concerns raised by the staff concerning flywheel integrity following RCP motor maintenance, the following is proposed.

An alternative inspection patterned after Code Case N48 l for RCP casings which integrates inspections into normal maintenance activities is recommended. Inspections using visual, liquid penetrant or ultrasonic techniques would be performed on the bore and kcyway region whenever the flywheel is removed from the shaft for RCP maintenance. This is in concert with the conclusion of the technical assessment that only the bore and keyway n:gious need to be inspected, not lOOo/o of the flywheel volume, as presently required by the regulatory guide.

Therefore, the following will be incorporated in DLC's maintenance program:

Upon disassembly (removal of the flywheel from the shaft of the RCP motor) for nonnal maintenance activities, the bore and keyway region of the RCP motor flywheel shall be inspected by visual, surface or ultrasonic techniques.

SAFETY EVALUATION BY THE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REACTOR REGULATION TOPICAL BEPQRJ ON REACTOR COOLANT PVMP FLYWHEEL INSPECTION ELIMINATION BEAVER VALLEY I & 2 MATERIALS AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING BRANCH DIVISION r* ENGINEERING 1.0 INTROQUCJIQU On January 24, 1996, Duquesne Light Company (DLC), the licensee for Beaver Villey 1 & 2) submitted a Westinghouse report, WCAP-14535 [1], *Topical Report on Reactor Coolant Pump Flywheel Inspection Elimination,* for NRC review.

This report, which provides an engineering analysis based on fracture mechanics, is intended to eliminate reactor coolant pump (RCP) flywheel 1nserv1ce inspection (ISi) requirements for all operating Westinghouse plants and soae Babcock and Wilcox Plants. Presently, Beaver Valley's RCP flywheel inspection is performed in accordance with its licensing c011111it..nt to Regalatory Guide (RG) 1.14 [2], which provides guidelines on conduct .g surface and ultrasonic volumetric exaainations of RCP flywheels coinciding with each individual plant's ISi schedule as required by Section XI of the Allerican Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Code.

2.0 BACKGROUND

The function of the RCP in the reactor coolant system (RCS) of a pressurized water reactor plant is to maintain an adequate cooling flow rate by circulating a large volu.. of primary coolant water at high temperature and pressure through the RCS. A concern over overspeed of the RCP and its potential for failure led to the issuance of RG 1.14 in 1971. The regulatory position of RG 1.14 concerning ISi calls for an in-place ultrasonic volumetric exaainatton of the areas of higher stress concentration at the bore and keyway at approxiaately 3-year intervals and a surface exaainatton of all exposed surfaces and coaplete ultrasonic voluaetric exaainatton at approxiaately 10-year intervals. The flywheel inspection schedule is to coincide wit the individual plant's ISi schedule as requtrtd by Section XI of the ASME Code.

Operating power plants have been inspecting their flywheels for over twenty years, and no flaws have been identified which affect flywheel integrity.

This inspection record, plus the licensee's concern over inspection costs and personnel radtatton exposure, proapted it to subllit this topical report to deaonstrate through fracture ..chanics analysis that flywheel inspections can be eliainated without impairing plant safety.

J.o EVALUATION AND VERIFICATION The primary regulatory position of RG 1.14 regarding flywheel design concerns three critical speeds: (1) the critical speed for ductile fracture, (b) the critical speed for nonductile fracture, and (c) the critical speed for

2 excessive defonaation of the flywheel. This regulatory position specifies, as a design criterion, that the normal speed of the flywheel should be less than one-half of the lowest of these three critical speeds, and the LOCA overspeed should be less than the lowest of these three critical speeds.

3.1 MATERIAL INFORMATION As shown in Table 2-1 of WCAP-14535, all flywheels have been classified into 16 groups according to their material and ge01111trtc information. Except for flywheels in Groups 14 to 16, all flywheels were made of reactor pressure vessel plate steel, SA 533 Grade B (SA 533 B). The analytical results presented in this report are for SA 533 B material. To cover a wide range of flywheels, the results were 1,resented for three reference teeratures, that is, RT T

  • 0°F, 30°F, and 60 F. A reference temperature of 60°F is a reason:Yle bounding value for material SA 533 8, and has been used in the subsequent evaluation.

3.2 ANALYSIS FOR CRITICAL SPEED BASED ON DUCTILE FRACTURE RG 1.14 per111its the use of. elastic stress analysts Mtthods and the acceptance criteria of Section III of the ASME Code to predict the critical speed based_

on ductile fracture of the flywheel. The ASME Code requires that the stress limits for the general priaary naellbrane stress intensity P, and the primary membrane plus priaary bending stress intensity PL+ Pb be u.7S"'- and l.OSSu for the raulted loading cOllbination, where S ts the atnillUII spectritd ultimate tens1le stress of the 111terial. The top1cal report used these 11a.tts and eaployed the ainillUII specified S value of 80 ksi for flywheel material SA-533 B to arrive at the critical spees for six groups of flywheels under ductile fracture conditions shown in Table 4-2. These six groups were selected from a total of 16 groups so that they cover all flywheel dtaens1ons. Table 4-2 indicates that the lowest calculated critical spttd ts 2698 rpa (Group 15 flywheels), and the non11l speed of 1200 rpa ts clearly less than one-half of that value. The type of analysts perforllld above satisfies RG 1.14. However, since RG 1.14 was published tn 1975, aort appropriate elastic-plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) ..thodology has been developed to predict ductilt fracture.

Perfor111ng an EPFM analysts ts not necessary because the linear elastic fracture atchantcs (LEFN) analysis in Section 3.3 ts the appropriate analysis 111thod for the thick section of the flywheel and t111Perature regi...of operation.

3.3 ANALYSIS EPB CRITICAL $PEED BASED QN NQNQUCJILE FRACTURE The topical report provided a linear elastic fracture 111chanics analysis to 0

ddress the prtdtctton of critical speed for nonducttlt fracture of the rlywheel spectf11d in lea 2.d of RG 1.14.

The analysts used the closed-fora solution for a radial full-depth crack eaanating froa the bore of a rotating disk to calculate the app11ed stress intensity factor (appltld K). The fracture resistance for the SA-533 B plate was obtained froa the lower bound K1c curve of Section XI of the ASME Code.

Use of K was suggested by RG 1.14. The loads used in calculating the aeplted° rwere froa an overspeed of 1500 rpa. Further, three values of RT..,t ,

o F, J0 F, and ao*f, were used tn calculating the K,c* The resulting critical

3 crack lengths for the six groups of flywheels were sunnarized in Table 4-3.

It showed that the smallest critical crack length is 2.6 inches for Graup-15 flywheels having an assumed RT.., , value of 60°F.

The flaw evaluation including fatigue analysis in the original submittal did not detenn;ne a cr;tical speed based on an assumed initial flaw size as requested by RG 1.14, or show that the acceptance criteria of IWB-3610 of Section XI of the ASME Code were satisfied. In response to this, t licensee 0

applied in Reference 3 the margins of IWB-3610 of Section XI of the sME Code and expanded Table 4-3 of the topical report to include critical crack lengths at the normal speed for the six groups of flywheels. The new table was called Table 1. The staff also determined that the applied K due to shrink-fit stresses were not considered in the initial response. In the second response to the staff's RAI [4], the licensee revised Table 1 one more ti.. to nclude the shrink-fit effect. This table indicates that normal/upset conditions are controlling for the flywheels. The allowable crack lengths, with IWB-3610 margins applied, are 0.2 inch for Group 15 and 0.4 inch for the r..aining groups of flywheels. In Attachment B to Reference 3, the 1.25 inch dtanaeter gage holes were identified at a metal path which is about twice the metal path distance involved in the inspection of the keyway area. The reflective surface fro** 1.25 inch gage hole would therefore be 0.33 inch. Since the ASME IWB-3610 minilllUII allowable crack length, 0.4 inch, for all groups except for Group 15 is greater than the 0.33 inch that was d1110nstr1ted to be detected, all flywheels except those in Group 15 satisfy the nonductile fracture criterion. For licensees having Group-15 flywheels, they need to demonstrate that the reference teinperature,

° RT,ia,, for their SA 533 B material or its equivalent is less than 30 F because TaDle 1 of Reference 4 indicates that the allowable crack length for this RT., value is greater than 0.4 inch.

Further, it should be noted that the atntaua initial crack length, considering shrink fit but not the ASME margin, is 1.0 inches at the noraal speed of 1200 rpm for all groups. Based on expertence with the inspection of ferrttic components with short metal paths, the staff considers that it is unlikely that any defect that could challenge flywheel integrity would be *issed by the inspection. In addition, the staff agrees that other conservatis*s that are identified in keference 4 were not accounted for in the analysts.

RG 1.14 requires the nor111l speed of the flywheel be one half the critical speed. Meeting the 111rg1ns based on applied K of IWB-3610 of Section XI of the ASHE Code is ,cceptable to the staff for satisfying this criterion. When this is translted into the concept of factor of safety on applied stress, it is equivalent to a factor of 4. Since the toughness used 1s K 1 .in the ASHE Code (for the ltaiting nonaal condition) and K,.c in RG 1.14, and K1c;,. i1s 2 larger than K 1 ., the RG aargin w111 be very close to tne ASME 11argtn of ( 1u) ' after having applied the ratio of K 1

  • to K,c*

Fatigue crack growth was determined fro* the rate formula in Appendix A of Section XI. For the flywheel in each group, an initial crack length of IOI of the distance fro* the keyway to the flywheel outer radius was assu..d (ranging fro* 2.04 inches to 3.28 inches). As to the loading, 6000 cycles of RCP starts and stops were assumed for a 60-year pl1nt ltfe. The crack growth after 6000 cycles are tabulated tn Table 4-4 of WCAP-14535 for the six groups of flywheels. The largest growth is for cracks in Groups 1 and 2 flywheels, for which a value of 0.08 inch is reported.

4 The fatigue crack growth calculation did not include the stresses due to shrink fit. However, tn Reference 3 tt was de1110nstr1ted that excluding the shrtnk-ftt stresses ts conservative in the crack growth calculation. This is because the key paraaeter now is AK instead of K. The explanation provided in Reference 3 ts acceptable and the staff agrees that th* crack growth calculation ts conservative. The staff concludes that after 10 years the maxiaua fatigue growth would be expected to be about 0.013 inch. If it is assulllld th,t a crack of 0.33 inches were *1ssed and the maximum expected fatigue crack growth were applied, tht end of cycle crack size would be 0.343 inch. Therefore, the ASHE aargtns would be 111tnt1tned during the service period and a 10-year inspection period appears reasonable.

3.4 COMPLIANCE WITH THE EXCESSIVE DEFORMATION FAILURE CRITERION The analyses in the report used standard closed-fora formulas for rotating disks to calculate the change of flywheel inner and outer radt1 at 1500 rpm.

The results are tabulated in Table 4-5 for the six groups of flywheels. The largest value is 0.010 inch for the change tn the inner radius. Without referrii,g to any criterion, this report stated that these increases would not result in any adverse conditions.

The pri.. ry concern of RG 1.14 over excessive deforaatton ts the enlargement of the bore that could cause a separation of the flywheel froa the shaft or could cause an unbalance of the flywheel leading to structural failure. The staff believes that the concern here ts the loss of shr1nk-f1t at high speed.

Once tt hAppens, the keys on the flywheels aay not be able to prevent the slight relative dtsplaceaent Latween the wheel and t* shaft froa happening.

Consequently, the balance of the flywheel ai9ht bt altered. The staff concludes that 110st flywhttls satisfy the excessive deforaatton failure criterion based on loss of shrtnk-ftt. However, it apcears that using the generic initial shrink-fit assUllld 1n the topical reprt, the shrink fit may be lost for Group-10 flywhttls at a speed of 1500 rpa. Licensees having these flywheels need to use the plant-spec1f1c shr1nk-f1t value to check the loss of shr1nk-f1t of the flywh..1 at thts speed.

3.5 COMPLIANCE WITH THE LQCA QYERSPEEQ CRITERION RG 1.14 requires that the LOCA overspeed should bt less than the lowest of the three critical speeds ....ttoned in Section 3.0. Since the predicted LOCA overspeed reported tn the submittal ts in 111 cases less than 1500 rpa, which happens to bl the lowest critical speed discussed above, the LOCA overspeed criterion ts s1ttsfted.

3.6 RISK ASSESSNENJ The staff relied solely on d1t1rainistic ..thodology to review this submittal.

The risk 1ss1ss..nt in Section 5, which used* Monte-Carlo stmulatton with i111Portance saapling for assessing the effect of inspections, concluded that flywheel inspections beyond ten years of plant life have no significant benefit on reducing the risk of flywheel failure. Stnce the risk assessment was not reviewed, acceptance of this report shall not bt interpreted as the staff accepting the probabilistic ..thodology in Section 5.

5 4.o CONCLUSIONS The Materials and Chemical Engineering Branch has completed its review of the licensee's sublltttals and has determined that the evaluation methodology in the reports ts appropriate and the criteria are in accordance with the design criteria of Rg 1.14.

For the RG criteria on the three critical speeds, the staff.concluded that(1) all flywheels satisfy the ductile fracture criterion of RG 1.14; (2) except for Group-IS flywheels, all flywheels satisfy the nonducttle fracture criteria of Section XI of the ASHE Code because their allowable crack length( 0.4 inch) is greater than the mtnilllUID flaw size that would bl found by periodic inspections used for flywheels describes in Attachment 8 to Reference 3; and (3) all flywheels except those in Group 10 satisfy the excessive defon1ation criterion of RG 1.14.

This report requests complete flywheel inspection elimination. The staff believes that even for flywheels meeting all the design criteria of RG 1.14, as modified tn this SER, inspections should not.be collll)letely elt*1natd.

Inspections are performed tn part to protect against events or degradation that 1s not anticipated and has not been considered in the analysts. This philosophy ts consistent with the requir...nts in the ASME Coda for successive inspections.for flaws evaluated to the Section XI acceptance criteria.

Therefore, the staff will not accept elimination of flywheel inspection.

However, conducting flywhee, inspection when RCP motor maintenance ts required (about every 8 years from a limited survey [SJ), the staff finds the following acceptable:

(1) Licensees who plan to subllit a plant-specific application of this topical report for flywheels made of SA 533 8 aaterial need to conftr11 that their flywheels art made of SA 533 B material. Further, licensees having Group-IS flywheels need to dt110nstrat1 that material properties of their A516 mteri1l is equivalent to SA 533 B a1t1rial, and its rtftrence teaperaure, RT.,, is less thin 30°F.

(2) Licensees who plan to subllit a plant-specific application of this topical report for their flywheels not aadt of SA 533 B or A516 aaterial need to eiter deaonstrate that their flywheel material properties ire bounded by those of SA 533 8 aatertal, or provide the atntaua specified ulttaate tensile stress, Su, tht fracture toughness, K c, and the reference teaperature, RT.,,

for that aatertal. For the litter, t* licensees should eaploy these aaterial properties, and use the ..thodology in the topical report, as extended in the two responses to the staff's RAI, to provide an assess..nt to Justify a change in insectton schedule for their plants.

(3) Licensees meeting either(1) or(2) above should either conduct 1 qu1lifted in-place UT ex1111natton over the volu.. frOII the inner bore of the flywheel to the circle of one-half the outer radius or conduct a surface exaatnation(MT and/or PT) of exposed sufacts defined by the voluae of the disasslllbled flywheels once every 10 years. Tht staff considers this 10-year inspection requtreaent not burdensoa.e when the flywheel inspection is conducted during scheduled ISi inspection or RCP 110tor maintenance. This

would provide an appropriate level of defence in depth.

Licensees with Grc p-10 flywheels need to confirm tn the near ter111 that their flywheels have an adequate shrink fit to preclude loss of shr1nk fit of the flywheel at maximu* overspeed or to provide an evaluation demonstrating that no detrimental effects would occur if the shrink fit was lost at maximum overspeed.

Since this topical report and all related documents were submitted by OLC, no demonstration of plant-specific applicability ts required from DLC.

APPENDIX H KEY PROVISIONS AND FOLLOWUP CLARIFICATIONS m:\.1356w.wpf: lb-111196 H-1

Safety Evaluation Report on RC Pump Flywheel Inspection The NRC staff has completed their review of the topical report submitted by Duquesne Light Company on your behalf, and has issued a Safety Evaluation Report, which is attached. The report is dated September 12, 19%, but was not received by Duquesne Light until September 19. Our review of the SER has revealed severdl mistakes, and a number of areas where the wording is not clear. We have obtained clarifications through several phone calls with the NRC staff, and these are discussed below. First, a brief summary of the key provisions of the SER.

Key Provisions

1. Inspections need only be done on a ten year interval, instead of 40 months.
2. Acceptable inspection methods are either UT or surface exams (magnetic particle or liquid penetrant).
3. UT inspection coverage is required only on the inner half of the flywheel radius.
4. Surface examination coverage is the exposed surfaces of the flywheel when the pump is disassembled for maintenance.
5. All licensees can reference this SER in license applications, and detailed technical reviews of the submittals will not be required, unless new technical information is presented.

Follow-up Clarifications I. The new inspections are meant to be a relief from those contained in Regulatory Guide 1.14.

2. The term "qualified" as applied to the UT has no hidden meaning. The inspections under this SER should be qualified in the same way the inspections under RG 1.14 were qualified.

Specifically, the staff said that Appendix Vlll of Section XI does not apply.

3. Referring to item (3) on page 5, the area to be examined by surface examination is stated as the "exposed surfaces defined by the volume of the disassembled flywheels". This was clarified to mean the "exposed surfaces of the disassembled flywheels".
4. The questions about the toughness of the Group 15 flywheels and the shrink fit for Group l 0 flywheels have been answered earlier in response to the staff request for additional information, but for some reason were missed by the ,;taff when they issued the SER. The staff suggested that this information be included in the submittals of the affected utilities, with a note mentioning the earlier submittal.

Follow-up Actions The 01 iginal WCAP-14535 will be republished, along with the two requests for additional information and the responses, and the SER. The information needed by Group 15 and Group IO owners will be clearly laid out. This: port will be numbered WCAP-14535A.

Conclusions The SER provides some relief, but the extent of relief was somewhat disappointing. The NRC staff said that technically the basis for further minimizing flywheel inspections has been established, but they felt they could go no funher at the present time. This leaves the door open for future actions on this subject.
