Conservatism in Non-Suppression Probability (NSP) Data FPRA FAQ Public Meeting December 13, 2017 Presented by:

Mark Schairer Engineering Planning and Management, Inc.

Description of Potential Realism Improvement: NSP Data Conservatism There is a disconnect between the average durations of fire scenarios in Fire PRAs vs. fire event experience The fire durations include time lags or delays associated with reporting time to control the fire versus time to extinguish the fire and time associated with de-energizing equipment, offsite fire brigade response, and water application In Fire PRAs, the source scenarios reach peak HRR in 12 minutes.

Using FLASH-CAT, multiple trays are involved well before 20 minutes. Peak ZOI and HGL occur before 20 minutes.

Typically, on-site fire brigade arrival is expected to be 10-15 minutes, and upon arrival, fire is under control within 5-10 minutes.

From the NSP data, more than 25% of fire events have durations longer than 20 minutes 2

Identification of Relevant Guidance NUREG-2169, Section 5.2. NSP Estimation Update, provides the following probability distributions for rates of fires suppressed per unit time, (data is based on fire events from 1981-2009) 3

Proposed Approach to Enhance Realism: Initial Assessment Review fire event information obtained from NRC Event Reports, Licensee Event Reports, or through Plant contacts.

Re-examine when the fires were under control, rather than totally extinguished. At the control point, the fire is no longer a threat to fire spread, hot gas layer formation, additional target damage.

Consider limiting data to only the more recent fire events to be consistent with fire ignition frequency data 4

Proposed Approach to Enhance Realism: Initial Assessment Initial scoping of high-duration electrical cabinet fires from NRC Event Reports:

Summary of Anticipated Realism Improvements Preliminary estimates based on expert judgement For events over 20 minutes in duration, reduce the duration by half, but not less than 20 minutes; Events under 20 minutes were unaltered i.e., 50 min event was reduced to 25 min, while 30 min event to 20 min Average Total Number Sum of NSP at time =
