| | NOTIFICATION OF BRUNSWICK STEAM ELECTRIC PLANT UNIT 2 SUPPLEMENTAL INSPECTION - NRC INSPECTION REPORT 50-325/2003-08 AND 50-324/2003-08 |
|
| |
|
| ==Dear Mr. Keenan:== | | ==Dear Mr. Gannon:== |
| This refers to the safety system design and performance capability team inspection conducted on August 11 -1 5 and August 2549,2003, at the Brunswick facility. The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection findings, which were discussed on August 29, 2003, with Mr. C. J. Gannon and other members of your staff. The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license. The team reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.
| | In a Final Significance Determination letter, dated June 2, 2004, from Mr. Loren Plisco, the Region II Deputy Regional Administrator, you were informed that the NRC had concluded that the final significance determination of a Brunswick Steam Electric Plant Unit 2 finding associated with an emergency diesel generator jacket water cooling system leak, had been characterized as White (i.e., an issue of low to moderate safety significance, which may require additional NRC inspection). Also in this letter you were informed that, because Brunswick Unit 2 plant performance for this issue had been determined to be in the increased regulatory response band, we would use the NRC Action Matrix to determine the most appropriate NRC response for the finding, and notify you by separate correspondence of our determination. |
|
| |
|
| Based on the results of this inspection, one finding of very low safety significance (Green) was identified. This issue was determined to involve a violation of NRC requirements. This finding has very low safety significance and has been entered into your corrective action program. However, the NflC is withholding the treatment of this issue as a non-cited violation as provided by Section VI.A.4 of the NRC's Enforcement Policy, pending our review of your corrective actions related to restoration of compliance. lf you contest this finding, you should provide a response with the basis for your concern, within 40 days of the date of this inspection report to the Nuclear flegulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, BC 20555- *1001 ~ with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region II; the Director, Office of Enforcement, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001 ; and the NRC Resident Inspector at the Brunswick faciiity.

This included reviews of system drawings and walkdown inspection of installed equipment to compare arrangements and dimensions to those used in the calculations.
| |
| | |
| The team also reviewed the licensee's calculations supporting the Technical Specification (TS) setpoint for the CST level instrumentation which initiates an automatic transfer of the HPCB pump suction from the CST to the suppression pool. This included checking the adequacy of the calculations and comparing calculated values to values in the TS and in the instrument calibration procedures.
| |
| | |
| Findines introduction:
| |
| An unresolved item of very low safety significance (Green) was identified for inadequate design control of the HPCI suction source from the CST. The calculations which determined the CST low level setpoint for automatic HPCl system suction transfer from the CST to the suppression pool did not adequately account for air entrainment in the process flow due to vortexing.
| |
| | |
| This finding involved a violation of NRC requirements.
| |
| | |
| However, it is unresolved pending further NRC review of the requirements for the CST bevel - bow function and corrective actions related to restoration of compliance.
| |
| | |
| =====Description:=====
| |
| Vortexing in pump suction sources is a well known phenomenon.
| |
| | |
| It is discussed in typical textbooks on centrifugal pumps. NRC Regulatory Guide I.8z5 "Sumps for Emergency Core Cooling and Containment Spray Systems,"
| |
| dated June 1974, discussed the need to preventing vortexing.
| |
| | |
| Regulatory Guide 1.82, Rev. 1, dated November 1985, and Rev. 2, dated May 1996, included specific guidance on how to prevent air ingestion due to vortexing in containment heat removal systems. That 2 guidance included limiting the Froude number (Fr) to less than 0.8 for BWW suppression pool suctions
| |
| [where Fr is equal to the inlet pipe velocity (U) in feet per second divided by the square root of (the suction pipe centerline submergence below the water level (S) in feet times gravity
| |
| : (9) in feet per second squared}].
| |
| NRC NUREG / CR-2772, "Hydraulic Performance of Pump Suction Inlet for Emergency Core Cooling Systems in Boiling Water Reactors?" dated June 1982, included experiments on suctions from tanks and showed almost no air entrainment with a Fr of 0.8. The experiments also showed that air entrainment increased dramatically when Fr reached 1.0. The BWR Owners' Group Emergency Procedure Guidelines included guidance on preventing vortexing in emergency core cooling system pump suctions from the suppression pool. This guidance included a vortex limit curve based on maintaining Fr less than 0.8. All of the above references addressed suction pipes that extended into a LanWsump.
| |
| | |
| A more recent research paper published in 2001 by ASME titled "Air Entrainment in a Partially Filled Horizontal Pump Suction Line" described tests on air entrainment.
| |
| | |
| The tests were conducted at various flowrates, in a horizontal suction pipe that did not extend into the a tank; a configuration similar to the HPCl suction from the CST at Brunswick. The paper's conclusions about vortexing and air entrainment at high flow rates were similar to those of the previous references where a suction pipe extended into a tank. Brunswick Units 1 and 2 TS Table 3.3.5.1-1 stated that the allowable value for the HPCl system automatic suction transfer from the CST to the suppression pool was a low CST level of 2 23 feet 4 inches above mean sea level. (NQTE:
| |
| That value represented 3 feet 4 inches above the bottom of the CST.) Once initiated, the HPCI suction transfer involved first opening the suppression pool suction valves (E41-FO41 and F042) and then closing the CST suction valve (E41-FOO4). The Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) stated that for each unit's CST: "...the HPCl and RCIC pumps take suction through a 16-inch line connected to the tank with a nozzle centerline 2 feet above the tank bottom. Level instruments will initiate an automatic transfer of the pumps' suction path to the suppression pool suction if level approaches this connection. For HPCl the setpoint is above the 3.3-foot TS limit and below the 3.5-foot calibration maximum allowed value.
| |
| | |
| To allow time for the suction transfer to take place, this setpoint provides a margin of approximately 10,000 gallons in the tank after the setpoint is reached and before air will be entrained in the process flow." The calculation of record that supported the TS allowable value was Calculation OE41- 1001, "High Pressure Coolant Injection System Condensate Storage Tank Level Low Uncertainty and Scaling Calculation
| |
| [E41 -LSL-N002(3)
| |
| Loops]," Rev. 1, dated March 29, 1999. The team noted that Calculation OE41-1001 stated that its objective was to determine the allowable value and setpoint for the CST low water level trip function for the HPCl system. However, the calculation did not include a hydraulic analysis to determine the allowable value.
| |
| | |
| Instead, it relied on a design basis input from Engineering Service Request (ESR) 97-00026, Action Item 2, for the allowable value.
| |
| | |
| 3 ESR 97-00026, Action Item 2, stated its objective:
| |
| "... the analytical limit for the HPCI and RClC CST low level transfer function is 23 feet 4 inches. Provide a basis for this analytical limit. The basis should address air voids ..." It also stated: "This ESR action item will show that using the TS limit as the analytical limit is acceptable."
| |
| | |
| The ESW included Condition Report (CR) 97-02379 Task 2 (approved August, 27,1997) as an attachment.
| |
| | |
| The team noted that the ESW relied entirely on CR 97-02379 Task 2 for concluding that using the TS limit as the analytical limit was acceptable.
| |
| | |
| However, the ESR also stated: "This CR review was not conducted as a design basis input with formal testing and design verification."
| |
| | |
| CR 97-02379 Task 2 stated that its objective was to determine if a vortexing problem existed in the CST when running the HPCO pump. Task 2 further stated that it was responding to an operating experience event where a nuclear plant had identified that they had failed to account for unusable volume In their CST due to vortexing concerns.
| |
| | |
| It described a scale model test that had been performed by another nuclear plant to conclude that no vortexing would occur in their CST. However, the CR noted reasons why this test could not be relied upon as a design input. The CR also contained results from an informal test performed by the licensee.
| |
| | |
| The CR concluded that, based on the results of the informal testing and engineering judgement, air ingestion may briefly occur during the transfer process; however, the air ingestion would be of such limited duration and such a small percentage that there was no concern for damage to the HPCI pumps. The team noted that the informal test used a small scale model without determination that the results would be applicable to the installed CST and HPCl suction, the test was performed without calibrated instruments, and the test was not independently verified.
| |
| | |
| The team considered that the informal test was not suitable for use as an input to a design basis calculation.
| |
| | |
| Subsequently, action request (AR) 00005402 documented an engineering audit concern with relying on ESR 97-80026 as a design basis input to a calculation.
| |
| | |
| ESW 01-00322 was then written to respond to AR 00005402.
| |
| | |
| ESR 01-08322 stated that its purpose was to document the technical resolution of the CST intake vortex formation issue and to insert appropriate references into design documents.
| |
| | |
| ESR 01 -00322 included an extensive review of reference documents on vortexing.
| |
| | |
| It included references to LERs and INPO Event Reports on vortexing issues at other nuclear plants; NUREWCR-2772; and several research papers on vortexing.
| |
| | |
| The team noted that ESR 01-00322 did not reference NRC Regulatory Guide 1.82. ESR 81-00322 agreed with the conclusions of CR 97-02379 and ESR 97-00026 that the TS allowable value of 23 feet 4 inches was adequate.
| |
| | |
| It concluded that the potential for a significant air ingestion event was of sufficiently low probability to be considered non- credible.
| |
| | |
| The team noted that this conclusion was based primarily on the CR 97-02379 informal test and on a research paper by A. Daemi of the Water Research Center in Tehran, Iran, that had been presented to the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1998. The research paper tested the effect of an intake pipe protruding various distances into a reservoir and found that a pipe that did not protrude into the reservoir showed some vortexing but no air entrainment while a pipe that did protrude into the reservoir would have significant vortexing and air entrainment into the pipe. ESR 01- 00322 considered that, since the NUREG/CR-2272 tests used a configuration where the 4 suction pipe protruded into the tank and the licensee's HPCl suction pipe did not protrude into the CST, the NUREG/CR-2272 conclusions were not applicable to the Brunswick design. The NRC team noted that the research paper by A. Baemi was significantly flawed for applicability to Brunswick in that it did not state what flowrates were used in its tests and apparently used gravity flow. Regulatory Guide 1.82 and NUREG/CR-2272 indicate that flow velocity is one of the most important factors in vortex formation.
| |
| | |
| A suction pipe that would have little or no vortexing at low flow velocities (e.g., gravity flow) could have significant vortexing at higher flow velocities (e.g., a HPCI pump at 4300 gprn). The team considered that both sources of information on which the conclusions of E§R 01-00322 were based were not suitable for use as inputs to safety-related design calculation OE41-1001.
| |
| | |
| The HPCl pump was designed to automatically start and establish a flowrate of 4300 gpm. Licensee procedures did not contain guidance to reduce that flowrate when the CST level approached the low level switchover setpoint.
| |
| | |
| Using the NUREG/CR-2272 methodology, the team calculated that, at a HPCI pump flowrate of 4300 gpm, an Fr of 0.8 would be reached at a CST level of 5.0 feet and an Fr of 1 .O would be reached at a CST level of 3.9 feet. Considering the automatic suction transfer actuation setpoint and the valve stroke times, the HPCB pump suction pipe could be exposed to a suction Fr in excess of 0.8 (some air entrainment)for about 8.9 minutes and over 1 .O (over 2% air entrainment)for about 5.0 minutes. Calculations that used the 2001 ASME research paper equations provided different results: air entrainment in the process flow would start at a tank level of 3.2 feet and would exceed 2% at tank levels below 3.0 feet. This would represent a HPCI pump suction pipe exposure to some air entrainment in the process flow for about 1.8 minutes and to over 2% air entrainment for about 1.1 minutes. The team concluded that the plant design was not consistent with the UFSAR in that the TS allowable value for the HPCl automatic suction transfer would not prevent air from becoming entrained in the HPCl process flow. During this inspection, team and licensee measurements of the installed CST configuration revealed non
| |
| -conservative errors of about 1.5 inches in the actual heights of the Units 1 and 2 CST level switches above the HPCl suction pipes. These would result in additional non-conservative errors in the HPCI automatic suction transfer setpoints.
| |
| | |
| The licensee entered this issue into their corrective action program as AR 102456. This AR included an operability determination and planned corrective actions that were reviewed by the team. The operability determination concluded that the CST Level - Low instrument was operable with the existing TS allowable value and related setpoint and no compensatory measures were needed. This conclusion was based on the following:
| |
| 1) HPCl operation during design or licensing basis events would not challenge the CST Level bow instrument; and 2) Operator actions consistent with plant procedures would not result in 4300 gpm HPCl flow for the full duration of the suction transfer.
| |
| | |
| The operability determination did not include an analysis which assured that the instrument's allowable value was adequate to prevent significant air entrainment during the full duration of a CST bevel - Low setpoint initiated suction transfer while the HPCl pump was operating at its maximum flowrats of 4300 gpm.
| |
| | |
| However, the team's interpretation of licensing basis documents indicated that the CST 5 Level - Low function was required to be able to protect the HPCl pump from damage from any suction hazard that could occur. This inciuded air entrainment in the process flow due to vortexing that would result if the CST level became low while the HPCI pump was operating at about 4300 gpm, even if this could only occur outside of a design basis event. The licensee's corrective actions for this issue were in AR 102456. This AB included only two planned corrective actions.
| |
| | |
| The first corrective action was: "Issue a UFSAR change package to correct the description of HPCB air entrainment potential during suction swap." Phis was described in more detail in the AB under Section 3, Inappropriate Acts, item 4: "Error 4 was a simple text error by BNP engineering where the concept was understood (no significant air at the pump) but was not translated into specific detailed words." The second corrective action was: "Issue an evaluation to update the HPCI CST level switch design basis information to reflect the evaluation provided in the operability review portion of this AW." The operability determination portion of the AR concluded that the CST Level - Low automatic HPCl suction transfer function would not be challenged during design basis events and consequently the TS allowable value was adequate. The documented corrective actions in AR 102456 did not appear to be sufficiently comprehensive to restore compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion 111, Design Control. The licensee's planned corrective actions did not Specifically include revising the design calculation, OE41-1001.
| |
| | |
| In addition, they did not include assuring that the CST Level Low suction transfer function will protect the flPCl pump if it is operating at its maximum flowrate during the transfer.
| |
| | |
| The planned corrective actions identified in the AR did not include obtaining a certification from the pump vendor that the pump can withstand a certain amount of air in the process flow for a certain amount of time without pump damage. [This was subsequently done by the licensee.]

| The planned corrective actions identified in the AR also did not include submitting a license amendment request to the NKC to revise the TS allowable value, remove the CST Level - Low function from TS, or add an operator action to throttle HPCl pump flow at low CST levels so that the existing setpoint will be able to protect the pump. This issue will remain unresolved pending further NRC review of the design basis and operability requirements for the CST Level - Low suction transfer function.
| |
| | |
| Specifically, the NRC will review whether the CST Level - Low function is required to be able to protect the HPCI pump from damage only during design basis events; or if it is required to be able to protect the HPCI pump from damage due to air entrainment if the level is the CSB becomes low with the HPCI pump operating at a flowrate of about 4300 gpm, even if this could only occur outside of a design basis event. Analvsis:
| |
| Design Calculation OE41-1001, for the CST Level - Low setpoint and TS aliowable value was inadequate.
| |
| | |
| The finding is greater than minor because it affects the design control attribute of the mitigating systems cornerstone objective.
| |
| | |
| It is of very low safety significance (Green) because the finding is a design deficiency that will not result in loss of the HPCl function per GL 91-18 (Rev. 1) and the likelihood of having a low level in the CST that would challenge the CST bevel - Low automatic HPCI suction transfer function is very low. In addition, alternate core cooling methods would normally 6 be available, including RCIC as well as automatic depressurization system and low pressure cooiant injection.
| |
| | |
| =====Enforcement:=====
| |
| 10 CFR 50, Appendix B, Criterion Ill( Design Control, requires in part, that design control measures shall include provisions to assure that appropriate quality standards are specified and included in design documents.
| |
| | |
| Contrary to the above requirements, the NRC identified during this inspection that, from 1999 to August 2003, licensee Calculation OE41-1001 and associated design documents did not adequately consider air entrainment in the HPCl pump process flow due to vortexing in the CST for the current TS value for the CST Level bow setpoint for automatic transfer of the HPCl pump suction from the CST to the suppression pool. This finding was entered into the licensee's corrective action program as Action Request 102456 and is unresolved pending further NRC review of the requirements for the CST Level - Low function and of the licensee's corrective actions related to restoration of compliance with Criterion Ill of 18 CFW 50, Appendix E. This finding is identified as UBI 05000325, 324/2003008-01, Failure to Adequately Consider Vortexing in the Calculation for CST Level for Automatic Transfer of the HPCI Pump Suction. .I2 Enerav Sources a. lnsoection Scow The team reviewed appropriate test and design documents to verify that the 12.9250 vdc power source fur HPCl system valves and controls would be available and adequate in accordance with design basis documents.

| |
| Review Page 1 of 20 AR 102,456 was written to address documentation
| |
| discrqsancies
| |
| with respect to pottntkl air entrainment
| |
| in the con,ndensate
| |
| storage tank (CST) ~~pply line due to vortex a1 the suction nozzle prior to completion
| |
| of the HE1 pump suction auto transfer on low CST level. An initia? operability
| |
| evduation
| |
| concluded
| |
| that the low CST WCI level insbmmentathn
| |
| ia still operable.
| |
| Due to additional
| |
| questions
| |
| and concerns, a more detailed operability
| |
| evaluation
| |
| was desired. 'This evaluation
| |
| provides additional
| |
| detail. When more detail was added tQ the review, some unneeded conservatism
| |
| were no longer applied and the end results actudly improved, The issue in question, foe both Units 1 and 2, is whether the setpoint for the Technical
| |
| Specification (TS) Table 3.3.5.1-1 Function 3.d. HPCI Condensate
| |
| Srmge Tank Level -Low insmentation
| |
| is appropriate.
| |
| This instrumentstion
| |
| is required when the plant is in MODE 1 and ah when in MODES 2 and 3 with reactor stem dome pressure water than 150 pig. TS Bases B 33.5.1 discusem the PIPGI Condensate
| |
| Storage Tank Level-Low function:
| |
| LOOW level in the CST indicates
| |
| the unavairability
| |
| of an tldequste
| |
| supply of makeup water from this normal source. Normally 6he suction valves between HpeI and the CST are open and, upon receiving
| |
| a HPCI initiation
| |
| signal, water for KPCI injection
| |
| wouldbt taken from the CS
| |
| : [[contact::T. However]], if the water level in the CST falls below a psesclecteci
| |
| level, fimt the 8UppSdOn pol suction valves automatically
| |
| open, and then the CST suction valve automatically
| |
| cio&es. This ensures that an adequate supply of makeup water is available
| |
| to the MlpcI pump. To prevent losing suction to the pump, the suction valves are interlwked
| |
| sion pool suction valves m~~t bc open before the CST suction valve automatically
| |
| chses. The Function is implicitly
| |
| assumed in the accident and transient
| |
| analyses (which take credit for HPCI) since the analyses assume that the HPCI suction sow is the suppression
| |
| pool. The Condensate
| |
| Storage Tank Level-Low signal is initiated
| |
| from two level switches.
| |
| The lo& ie arranged slack that either level switch cxn cause the suppression
| |
| pool suction valves to open and the CST suction valve to close. The Condensate
| |
| Storage Tank Level--Low
| |
| FURC~~DII
| |
| Allowable
| |
| Value is high enough to ensure adequate pump suction head while water is being takrn faom the CST. Two channels of the Condensate
| |
| Storage Tank Level-Low Function are nquired to be OPERABLE only When HPCI is required to be OPERABLE to en8uTe that no single insmmenr failure can preclude HPCi swap to suppression
| |
| pool source. H41-ULNW and Mi-LSL-NOQS
| |
| are TS required instrumentation
| |
| and are designated
| |
| 8s Q Clslla A (safety related).
| |
| Elquipmcnt
| |
| datnbase (H>B) describes
| |
| the active function as ''P~wv&% a signal to the WPCI logic when the condensate
| |
| storage tank level is low. This opens valves E41- FM1 and E41-FQ42 to dlow WPCl pump suction from the suppnssion

| Analysis for Bmnswick Steam Electric Plant) indicate water level may drop far enough to cwe LL3 actuation (level olttside the shroud between 33.3' and 35.3' above vessel zero). For thie event, operators
| |
| would inhibit ADS a5 directed in EBPs due to the large margin between the LJ3 setpoint and top of active fuel, the lack of LQCA indications
| |
| and the slow fate of level decrease.
| |
| A slow downward trend would follow as the mass of steam flew for decay heat removal via SRV actuations
| |
| initially
| |
| exceeds the RCXC makeup flow. At 15 to 20 minutes into the event, the level trend would stabilize

| |
| makeup water during B postulated
| |
| Station Blackout (SBO) event. The most recent SBO evdu~tion
| |
| required HPCI to deliver approximately
| |
| 86,080 gallons of CST water to the Reactor in a 4 hour time mod. This is an average flow wte of only 3.58 gpm. The peak flow requirement
| |
| for this event can be estimated
| |
| as the decay heat removal plow rate nonndy provided by RCIC at 4QO gppm combined with an assumed 61 gpm win: pump seal leak or 461 kpm. Although the WSAR did not explicitly
| |
| describe the above "CI function, this function waa an essential
| |
| pan of the SBO evaluation
| |
| th&t was described
| |
| at the summary level in the PWSAR. Bd on the above this WCI function is an implied function associated
| |
| with the BNP specific SBQ Licensing
| |
| basis. Since RHB operation
| |
| is not assumed for the initial SBO response, significant
| |
| Suppression
| |
| Pwl heating is anticipated.
| |
| Due to HPCI system process fluid temperacue
| |
| limitations, the event explicitly

| excludes allowing CST depletion.
| |
| This requirement
| |
| establishes
| |
| a limit on the highest allowed actuation
| |
| of the low CST level HLPCL instruments.
| |
| Function 5: Appendix R Function Although not pant of the original FPCX design basis, the I;IpcI sysfem has been credited for providing
| |
| makeup water during a postulated
| |
| Appendix R event. Appendix R evaluations
| |
| squired WI to deliver CST water to the Reactor for decay heat removal when manually started after a number of other manual operator actions are completed.
| |
| RCIC has a similar Appendix R function.
| |
| The use of RCIC for the similar Appendix R event was found to quire a peak flow rate of 500 gpm. Although the MJSAR did not explicitly
| |
| describe the above WI function, this funCtiOn i5 essential
| |
| for Appendix R compliance.
| |
| Appendix R compliance

| |

| |
| over a specific time penOd. The mal required makeup inventory

| |
| It simply indicated that the
| |
| switch would actuate on 10W CST level to onsure that an adequate supply of makeup water is available
| |
| to the HPCI pump. The original licensing basis
| |
| for the switch went with an original design basis that specified
| |
| the nominal trip setpoint be at a value that "corresponds
| |
| to 10,000 gallons capacity".
| |
| The documekd design basis did not specify a flow rate and it did not specify the
| |
| refmnce point foF the capacity.
| |
| The documented design
| |
| basis also did not link this setpoint to any stroke time limits on the WPCI suction valves. There
| |
| is no indication

| |
| Aftcr evaluating

| these sources of water, the RCIC turbine-pump unit either start?, automatically
| |
| upon receipt of a reactor vewi low water level signal (Bigurn 7.3.3-2) or is started by the operator from the Centhol Room by fernot~ mmud controls.
| |
| Re szme low level signal also energizes the

| high prcssun coolant injection
| |
| system. The RCIC system delivers its design flow approximately

| 8&c after actuation.
| |
| WFSAR 6.3.2.8 System Operation
| |

| |
| The ECCS have been designed to atart automatically
| |
| in the event of an accident that
| |
| threatens the adequacy
