No. TITLENo.12-3001-00-EVAL 0 Replacing the PIPEFLOW Hydraulic AnalysisComputer Program with a New Hydraulic AnalysisComputer Program for Analyzing Design BasisService Water System Performance Brief Description of the Change, Test or Experiment:
As described in UFSAR Section 9.6.1, the PIPEFLOW hydraulic analysis computerprogram is currently being used to demonstrate design function of the service watersystem under various postulated design basis configurations.
The proposed activity is touse another hydraulic analysis computer program (PROTO-FLO) in place of thePIPEFLOW hydraulic analysis computer program.
This activity requires evaluation under 10 CFR 50.59 to determine if using another hydraulic analysis computer programin place of PIPEFLOW is a departure from a method of evaluation described in theUFSAR.Summary of the associated 10 CFR 50.59 Evaluation The 50.59 Evaluation determined that use of the PROTO-FLO computer program inplace of the PIPEFLOW computer program is not a departure from a method ofevaluation since it was shown that both computer programs use the same calculational methodology (framework);
that is, both programs solve the same set of equations toobtain flow rate and pressure at each node point in the service water system hydraulic model. The programs differ in the use of pipe and fitting resistance coefficients and bythe numerical analysis used to solve the system of equations.
: However, this is simply achange to one or more elements of the method of evaluation that yielded predicted flowsthat are essentially the same of more conservative.
The change was also shown to bewithin the constraints and limitations of the original IP3 operating license 1973 AEC SER(including Supplements 1 & 2), and the 1989 NRC SER that approved the use of limitedsize breaks in the IP3 service water system. Therefore, use of the PROTO-FLO computer program in place of the PIPEFLOW computer program does not require priorNRC approval.}}
