Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 vii WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

The purpose of this report is to document the testing results of surveillance Capsule U from Watts Bar Unit 2. Capsule U was removed at 2.0 effective full-power years (EFPY) and post-irradiation mechanical tests of the Charpy V-notch and tensile specimens were performed. A fluence evaluation utilizing the neutron transport and dosimetry cross-section libraries was derived from the Evaluated Nuclear Data File (ENDF) database (specifically, ENDF/B-VI). Capsule U received a fluence of 6.04 x 1018 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV) after irradiation to 2.0 EFPY. The peak clad/base metal interface vessel fluence after 32 EFPY (end-of-license) of plant operation is projected to be 1.94 x 1019 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV).

This evaluation led to the following conclusions: (1) The measured shift in the 30 ft-lb transition temperature of the surveillance forging and weld materials contained in Watts Bar Unit 2 Capsule U are approximately equal to or less than the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] predictions. (2) The measured percent decreases in upper-shelf energy for the surveillance forging and weld materials contained in Watts Bar Unit 2 Capsule U are typically less than the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1]

predictions. The exception is Intermediate Shell Forging 05 in the tangential direction, which experienced a higher than predicted decrease in the upper-shelf energy. (3) The Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance weld (Heat # 895075) data and sister-plant data are judged to be credible. This credibility evaluation can be found in Appendix D.

Lastly, a brief summary of the Charpy V-notch testing can be found in Section 1. All Charpy V-notch data was plotted using a symmetric hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program.

SUMMARY

OF RESULTS The analysis of the reactor vessel materials contained in surveillance Capsule U, the first capsule removed and tested from the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel, led to the following conclusions:

Charpy V-notch test data were plotted using a symmetric hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program.

Appendix C presents the CVGRAPH, Version 6.02, Charpy V-notch plots for Capsule U, along with the program baseline data.

Capsule U received an average fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) of 6.04 x 1018 n/cm2 after 2.0 effective full-power years (EFPY) of plant operation.

Irradiation of the reactor vessel Intermediate Shell Forging 05 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major rolling direction (tangential orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -15.6F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 26.7F for the tangentially oriented specimens.

Irradiation of the reactor vessel Intermediate Shell Forging 05 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major rolling direction (axial orientation),

resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -20.5F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 21.3F for the axially oriented specimens.

Irradiation of the Surveillance Program Weld Material (Heat # 895075) Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -25.1F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 32.6F.

Irradiation of the Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ) Material Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -103.4F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature reduction of 1.6F. Note that physically a reduction in T30 should not occur.

The average upper-shelf energy of Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (tangential orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of -45 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 130 ft-lb for the tangentially oriented specimens.

The average upper-shelf energy of Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (axial orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of -5 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 105 ft-lb for the axially oriented specimens.

The average upper-shelf energy of the Surveillance Program Weld Material (Heat # 895075) Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of -9 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 135 ft-lb for the weld metal specimens.

The average upper-shelf energy of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of -12 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 118 ft-lb for the HAZ Material.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 1-2 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Comparisons of the measured 30 ft-lb shift in transition temperature values and upper-shelf energy decreases to those predicted by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel surveillance materials are presented in Table 5-10.

Based on the credibility evaluation presented in Appendix D, the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance weld material (Heat # 895075) is credible.

The maximum calculated 32 EFPY (end-of-license) neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel beltline using the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] attenuation formula (i.e., Equation # 3 in the Guide) is as follows:

Calculated (32 EFPY):

Vessel peak clad/base metal interface fluence* = 1.94 x 1019 n/cm2 Vessel peak quarter-thickness (1/4T) fluence = 1.17 x 1019 n/cm2

• This fluence value is documented in Table 6-5.

INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of the examination of Capsule U, the first capsule removed and tested in the continuing surveillance program, which monitors the effects of neutron irradiation on the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel materials under actual operating conditions.

The surveillance program for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel materials was designed and recommended by Westinghouse Electric Company LLC. A detailed description of the surveillance program is contained in WCAP-9455 [Ref. 2] Tennessee Valley Authority Watts Bar Unit No. 2 Reactor Vessel Radiation Surveillance Program. The surveillance program covers the 40-year design life of the reactor pressure vessel and is based on ASTM E185-73 [Ref. 3], Standard Recommended Practice for Surveillance Tests for Nuclear Reactor Vessels. Capsule U was removed from the reactor after 2.0 EFPY of exposure and shipped to the Westinghouse Churchill Laboratory Services, where the post-irradiation mechanical testing of the Charpy V-notch impact and tensile surveillance specimens was performed.

This report summarizes the testing and post-irradiation data obtained from surveillance Capsule U removed from the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel and presents the analysis of the data.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 3-1 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 3

BACKGROUND The ability of the large steel pressure vessel containing the reactor core and its primary coolant to resist fracture constitutes an important factor in ensuring safety in the nuclear industry. The beltline region of the reactor pressure vessel is the most critical region of the vessel because it is subjected to significant fast neutron bombardment. The overall effects of fast neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of low-alloy, ferritic pressure vessel steels such as SA508 Class 2 (base material of the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel beltline) are well documented in the literature. Generally, low-alloy ferritic materials show an increase in hardness and tensile properties and a decrease in ductility and toughness during high-energy irradiation.

A method for ensuring the integrity of reactor pressure vessels has been presented in Fracture Toughness Criteria for Protection Against Failure, Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code [Ref. 4]. The method uses fracture mechanics concepts and is based on the reference nil-ductility transition temperature (RTNDT).

RTNDT is defined as the greater of either the drop-weight nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT) per American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) E208-06 [Ref. 5] or the temperature 60F less than the 50 ft-lb (and 35-mil lateral expansion) temperature as determined from Charpy specimens oriented perpendicular (axial) to the major rolling direction of the forging. The RTNDT of a given material is used to index that material to a reference stress intensity factor curve (KIc curve) which appears in Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Code [Ref. 4]. The KIc curve is a lower bound of static fracture toughness results obtained from several heats of pressure vessel steel. When a given material is indexed to the KIc curve, allowable stress intensity factors can be obtained for this material as a function of temperature. Allowable operating limits can then be determined using these allowable stress intensity factors.

RTNDT and, in turn, the operating limits of nuclear power plants, are adjusted to account for the effects of radiation on the reactor vessel material properties. The changes in mechanical properties of a given reactor pressure vessel steel, due to irradiation, are monitored by a reactor vessel surveillance program, such as the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel radiation surveillance program, in which a surveillance capsule is periodically removed from the operating nuclear reactor and the encapsulated specimens are tested. The increase in the average Charpy V-notch 30 ft-lb temperature (RTNDT) due to irradiation is added to the initial RTNDT, along with a margin (M) to cover uncertainties, to adjust the RTNDT (ART) for radiation embrittlement. This ART (initial RTNDT + M + RTNDT) is used to index the material to the KIc curve and, in turn, to set operating limits for the nuclear power plant that take into account the effects of irradiation on the reactor vessel materials.

DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM Six surveillance capsules for monitoring the effects of neutron exposure on the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel core region (beltline) materials were inserted in the reactor vessel prior to initial plant startup. The six capsules were positioned in the reactor vessel, as shown in Figure 4-1, between the neutron shield pads and the vessel wall, at various azimuthal locations for this Westinghouse four-loop plant. The vertical center of the capsules is opposite the vertical center of the core. The capsules contain specimens made from the following:

Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (tangential orientation), Heat # 527828 Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (axial orientation), Heat # 527828 Weld metal fabricated with weld wire heat no. 895075 with type Grau L.O. (LW320) flux, lot P46 which is equivalent to the heat number, Flux Type, and Flux Lot number used in the actual fabrication of the intermediate shell to lower shell circumferential weld seam Weld heat-affected zone (HAZ) material of Intermediate Shell Forging 05 Test material obtained from the Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (after thermal heat treatment and forming of the forging) was taken at least one forging thickness from the quenched edges of the forging. All test specimens were machined from the 1/4 thickness location of the forging after performing a simulated post-weld stress-relieving treatment on the test material. Test specimens were also removed from the weld and heat-affected zone metal of stress-relieved weldments joining Intermediate Shell Forging 05 and Lower Shell Forging 04. All heat-affected zone specimens were obtained from the weld heat-affected zone of Intermediate Shell Forging 05.

Charpy V-notch impact specimens from Intermediate Shell Forging 05 were machined in the tangential orientation (longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major rolling direction) and also in the axial orientation (longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major rolling direction). The core-region weld Charpy impact specimens were machined from the weldment such that the long dimension of each Charpy specimen was perpendicular to the weld direction. The notch of the weld metal Charpy specimens was machined such that the direction of crack propagation in the specimen was in the welding direction.

Tensile specimens from Intermediate Shell Forging 05 were machined both in the tangential and axial orientations. Tensile specimens from the weld metal were oriented perpendicular to the welding direction.

Compact tension test specimens from Intermediate Shell Forging 05 were machined in both the tangential and axial orientations. Compact tension test specimens from the weld metal were machined perpendicular to the weld direction with the notch oriented in the direction of the weld. All specimens were fatigue precracked according to ASTM E399 [Ref. 6].

All six capsules contain dosimeter wires of pure iron, copper, nickel, and aluminum-0.15 weight percent cobalt (cadmium-shielded and unshielded). In addition, cadmium-shielded dosimeters of Neptunium (237Np) and Uranium (238U) were placed in the capsules to measure the integrated flux at specific neutron energy levels.

TESTING OF SPECIMENS FROM CAPSULE U 5.1 OVERVIEW The post-irradiation mechanical testing of the Charpy V-notch impact specimens and tensile specimens was performed at the Westinghouse Churchill Laboratory Services Hot Cell Facility. Testing was performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix H [Ref. 7] and ASTM Specification E185-82 [Ref. 8].

Capsule U was opened upon receipt at the hot cell laboratory. The specimens and spacer blocks were carefully removed, inspected for identification number, and checked against the master list in WCAP-9455

[Ref. 2]. All of the items were in their proper locations.

Examination of the thermal monitors indicated that the three temperature monitors had not melted. Based on this examination, the maximum temperature to which the specimens were exposed was less than 579°F (304°C).

The Charpy impact tests were performed per ASTM Specification E185-82 [Ref. 8] and E23-18 [Ref. 9]

on a Tinius-Olsen Model 74, 358J machine. The Charpy machine striker was instrumented with an Instron1 Impulse system. Instrumented testing and calibration were performed to ASTM E2298-18

[Ref. 10].

The instrumented striker load signal data acquisition rate was 819 kHz with data acquired for 10 ms. From the load-time curve, the load of general yielding (Fgy), the maximum load (Fm) and the time to maximum load were determined. Under some test conditions, a sharp drop in load indicative of fast fracture was observed. The load at which fast fracture was initiated is identified as the brittle fracture initiation/load at initiation of unstable crack propagation (Fbf). The termination load after the fast load drop is identified as the arrest load/load at end of unstable crack propagation (Fa). Fgy, Fm, Fbf, and Fa were determined per the guidance in ASTM Standard E2298-18 [Ref. 10].

The pre-maximum load energy (Wm) was determined by integrating the load-time record to the maximum load point via the instrumented Charpy software. The integrated total impact energy (Wt) is compared to the absorbed energy measured from the dial energy (KV).

Percent shear was determined from post-fracture photographs using the ratio-of-areas method in compliance with ASTM E23-18 [Ref. 9] and A370-18 [Ref. 11]. The lateral expansion was measured using a dial gage rig similar to that shown in the same ASTM Standards.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-2 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Tensile tests were performed on a 250 kN Instron screw driven tensile machine (Model 5985) per ASTM E185-82 [Ref. 8]. Testing met ASTM Specifications E8/E8M-16 [Ref. 12] for room temperature or E21-17

[Ref. 13] for elevated temperatures.

The tensile specimens were, nominally, 4.23 inches long with a 1.00 inch gage length and 0.250 inch in diameter, per WCAP-9455 [Ref. 2]. Strain measurements were made using an extensometer, which was attached to the 1.00 inch gage section of the tensile specimen. The strain rate obtained met the requirement of ASTM E8/E8M-16 [Ref. 12] and ASTM E21-17 [Ref. 13].

Elevated test temperatures were obtained with a three-zone electric resistance split-tube Instron SF-16 furnace with an 11-inch hot zone. For the elevated tests, temperature was measured by two Type N thermocouples in contact with the gage section of the specimen per ASTM E21-17 [Ref. 13]. Tensile specimens were soaked at temperature (+/- 5ºF) for a minimum of 20 minutes before testing. All tests were conducted in air.

The yield load, ultimate load, fracture load, uniform elongation, and elongation at fracture were determined directly from the load-extension curve. The yield strength (0.2% offset method), ultimate tensile strength, and fracture strength were calculated using the original cross-sectional area. Yield point elongation (YPE) was calculated as the difference in strain between the upper yield strength and the onset of uniform strain hardening using the methodology described in ASTM E8/E8M-16 [Ref. 12]. The final diameter and final gage length were determined from post-fracture photographs. This final diameter measurement was used to calculate the fracture stress (fracture true stress) and the percent reduction in area. The reported total elongation is the elongation at fracture.

5.2 CHARPY V-NOTCH IMPACT TEST RESULTS The results of the Charpy V-notch impact tests performed on the various materials contained in Capsule U, which received a fluence of 6.04 x 1018 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV) in 2.0 EFPY of operation, are presented in Tables 5-1 through 5-8 and are compared with the unirradiated results as shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-12. The unirradiated capsule results were taken from WCAP-9455 [Ref. 2]. The original program unirradiated material input data, were updated using CVGRAPH, Version 6.02.

The transition temperature increases and decreases in upper-shelf energies for the Capsule U materials are summarized in Table 5-9 and led to the following results:

Irradiation of the reactor vessel Intermediate Shell Forging 05 Charpy specimens, oriented with the tangential axis of the specimen parallel to the major rolling direction (tangential orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -15.6F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature (T50) of 12.7°F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 26.7F (T30 =

26.7F) and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 33.6F (T50 = 33.6F) for the tangentially oriented specimens.

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-3 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Irradiation of the reactor vessel Intermediate Shell Forging 05 Charpy specimens, oriented with the tangential axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major rolling direction (axial orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -20.5F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature (T50) of 24.2F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 21.3F (T30 =

21.3F) and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 18.1F (T50 = 18.1F) for the axially oriented specimens.

Irradiation of the Surveillance Program Weld Material (Heat # 895075) Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -25.1F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature (T50) of 14.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 32.6F (T30

= 32.6F) and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 33.5F (T30 = 33.5F).

Irradiation of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature (T30) of -103.4F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature (T50) of -61.7F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature reduction of 1.6F (T30 = -1.6F) and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 19.8F (T50 = 19.8F). Note that physically, a reduction in T30 (T30 = -1.6F) should not occur. However, this can be indicated due to the standard error of the measurements and/or variation of material properties within a sample/heat. When this measured reduction is observed, all downstream analyses which use the results should conservatively assume that no shift in T30 has occurred, i.e., T30 = 0F.

The average upper-shelf energy of Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (tangential orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of -45 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 130 ft-lb for the tangentially oriented specimens.

The average upper-shelf energy of Intermediate Shell Forging 05 (axial orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of -5 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 105 ft-lb for the axially oriented specimens.

The average upper-shelf energy of the Surveillance Program Weld Material (Heat # 895075) Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of -9 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 135 ft-lb for the weld metal specimens.

The average upper-shelf energy of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of -12 ft-lb after irradiation. This decrease results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 118 ft-lb for the HAZ Material.

Comparisons of the measured 30 ft-lb shift in transition temperature values and upper-shelf energy decreases to those predicted by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel surveillance materials are presented in Table 5-10.

RADIATION ANALYSIS AND NEUTRON DOSIMETRY

6.1 INTRODUCTION

This section describes a discrete ordinates (Sn) transport analysis performed for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor to determine the neutron radiation environment within the reactor pressure vessel and surveillance capsules.

In this analysis, fast neutron exposure parameters in terms of fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence and iron atom displacements (dpa) were established on a plant-and fuel-cycle-specific basis. An evaluation of the most recent dosimetry sensor set from Capsule U, withdrawn at the end of the 2nd plant operating cycle, is provided. Comparisons of the results from the dosimetry evaluations with the analytical predictions served to validate the plant-specific neutron transport calculations. These validated calculations subsequently form the basis for projections of the neutron exposure of the reactor pressure vessel for operating periods extending to 36 effective full-power years (EFPY).

The use of fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence to correlate measured material property changes to the neutron exposure of the material has traditionally been accepted for the development of damage trend curves as well as for the implementation of trend curve data to assess the condition of the vessel. However, it has been suggested that an exposure model that accounts for differences in neutron energy spectra between surveillance capsule locations and positions within the vessel wall could lead to an improvement in the uncertainties associated with damage trend curves and improved accuracy in the evaluation of damage gradients through the reactor vessel wall.

Because of this potential shift away from a threshold fluence toward an energy-dependent damage function for data correlation, ASTM Standard Practice E853-18, Standard Practice for Analysis and Interpretation of Light-Water Reactor Surveillance Results, [Ref. 14] recommends reporting displacements per iron atom along with fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to provide a database for future reference. The energy-dependent dpa function to be used for this evaluation is specified in ASTM Standard Practice E693-94, Standard Practice for Characterizing Neutron Exposures in Iron and Low Alloy Steels in Terms of Displacements per Atom

[Ref. 15]. The application of the dpa parameter to the assessment of embrittlement gradients through the thickness of the reactor vessel wall has been promulgated in Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.99, Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials [Ref. 1].

All of the calculations and dosimetry evaluations described in this section and in Appendix A were based on nuclear cross-section data derived from ENDF/B-VI. Furthermore, the neutron transport and dosimetry evaluation methodologies follow the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.190, Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence [Ref. 16]. Additionally, the methods used to develop the calculated pressure vessel fluence are consistent with the NRC-approved methodology described in WCAP-18124-NP-A, Fluence Determination with RAPTOR-M3G and FERRET [Ref. 17].

6.2 DISCRETE ORDINATES ANALYSIS The arrangement of the surveillance capsules in the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel is shown in Figure 4-1.

Six irradiation capsules attached to the neutron pad are included in the reactor design that constitutes the reactor vessel surveillance program. Capsules U, X, V, Y, W, and Z are located at azimuthal angles of 56.0°,

236.0°, 58.5°, 238.5°, 124.0°, and 304.0°, respectively. These full-core positions correspond to the following octant symmetric locations represented in Figure 6-1 through Figure 6-3: 34.0° from the core

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-2 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 cardinal axes (for the 56.0° and 236.0° dual surveillance capsule holder locations found in octants with a 20.0° neutron pad segment); 31.5° from the core cardinal axes (for the 58.5° and 238.5° dual surveillance capsule holder locations found in octants with a 20.0° neutron pad segment); and 34.0° from the core cardinal axes (for the 304.0° and the 124.0° single surveillance capsule holder locations found in octants with a 17.5° neutron pad segment). The stainless steel specimen containers are 1.182-inch by 1-inch and are approximately 56 inches in height. The containers are positioned axially such that the test specimens are centered on the core midplane, thus spanning the central 5 feet of the 12-foot high reactor core.

From a neutronic standpoint, the surveillance capsules and associated support structures are significant. The presence of these materials has a significant effect on both the spatial distribution of neutron exposure rate and the neutron spectrum in the vicinity of the capsules. However, the capsules are far enough apart that they do not interfere with one another. In order to determine the neutron environment at the test specimen location, the capsules themselves must be included in the analytical model.

In performing the fast neutron exposure evaluations for the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel and surveillance capsules, plant-specific 3D forward transport calculations were carried out to directly solve for the space-and energy-dependent neutron exposure rate, (r,,z,E).

For the Watts Bar Unit 2 transport calculations, the models depicted in Figure 6-1 through Figure 6-3 were utilized. The reactor is octant symmetric with three different neutron pad and surveillance capsule configurations: octants with 20.0° neutron pads and surveillance capules located at 31.5° and 34°, octants with 17.5° neutron pads and a single surveillance capsule at 34.0°, and octants with 15.0° neutron pads and without surveillance capsules.

Each octant model contained a representation of the reactor core, the reactor internals, the pressure vessel cladding and vessel wall, the insulation external to the pressure vessel, and the primary biological shield wall. These models formed the basis for the calculated results and enabled making comparisons to the surveillance capsule dosimetry evaluations. In developing these analytical models, nominal design dimensions were generally employed for the various structural components. In addition, water temperatures, and hence, coolant densities in the reactor core and downcomer regions of the reactor were taken to be representative of full-power operating conditions. The coolant densities were treated on a fuel-cycle-specific basis. The reactor core itself was treated as a homogeneous mixture of fuel, cladding, water, and miscellaneous core structures such as fuel assembly grids, guide tubes, et cetera.

A section view of the RAPTOR-M3G model of the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor is shown in Figure 6-4. The model extended radially from the centerline of the reactor core out to a location interior to the primary biological shield and over an axial span from an elevation approximately eight feet below the active fuel to five feet above the active fuel.

Each of the three RAPTOR-M3G models consisted of 200 radial mesh, 132 azimuthal mesh, and 347 vertical mesh. Mesh sizes were chosen to assure that proper convergence of the inner iterations was achieved on a pointwise basis. The pointwise inner iteration flux convergence criterion utilized in the RAPTOR-M3G calculations was set at a value of 0.001.

The core power distributions used in the plant-specific transport analysis for the first 2 fuel cycles at Watts Bar Unit 2 included cycle-dependent fuel assembly initial enrichments, burnups, and axial power

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-3 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 distributions. Actual operating characteristics through Cycle 2 have been evaluated; projections of future neutron exposure are based upon expected core loading patterns and operating characteristics for the following five fuel cycles. This information was used to develop spatial-and energy-dependent core source distributions averaged over each individual fuel cycle. Therefore, the results from the neutron transport calculations provided data in terms of fuel-cycle-averaged neutron exposure rate, which when multiplied by the appropriate fuel cycle length, generated the incremental fast neutron exposure for each fuel cycle. In constructing these core source distributions, the energy distribution of the source was based on an appropriate fission split for uranium and plutonium isotopes based on the initial enrichment and burnup history of individual fuel assemblies. From these assembly-dependent fission splits, composite values of energy release per fission, neutron yield per fission, and fission spectrum were determined.

All of the transport calculations supporting this analysis were carried out using the RAPTOR-M3G discrete ordinates code and the BUGLE-96 cross-section library, as described in [Ref. 17]. The BUGLE-96 library provides a coupled 47-neutron, 20-gamma-group cross-section data set produced specifically for light-water reactor (LWR) applications. In these analyses, anisotropic scattering was treated with a P3 Legendre expansion, and angular discretization was modeled with an S12 order of angular quadrature. Energy-and space-dependent core power distributions, as well as system operating temperatures, were treated on a fuel-cycle-specific basis.

Selected results from the neutron transport analyses are provided in Table 6-1 through Table 6-8. In Table 6-1, the calculated exposure rates expressed in terms of fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence rate and iron atom displacement rate are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions. Integrated neutron exposure levels are presented in Table 6-2 in terms of fast neutron (E >

1.0 MeV) fluence and Table 6-3 in terms of iron dpa. These results, representative of the average axial exposure of the material specimens, establish the calculated exposure of the surveillance capsules to date and projected into the future.

Neutron exposure data pertinent to selected pressure vessel materials are given in Table 6-4 and Table 6-5 for fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence rate and fluence. Similar data are provided in Table 6-6 and Table 6-7 for dpa/s and dpa. The data presented represent the maximum neutron exposure experienced by the reactor pressure vessel (RPV) materials that will constitute inputs to the reactor vessel integrity analysis. The reported data considers both the inner and outer radius of the RPV base metal, and accounts for the possibility of higher neutron exposure values occurring on the outer surface of the RPV (as compared to the inner surface) for materials that are distant from the active core. In each case, the data are provided for each operating cycle of the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor. Note that, for any given fuel cycle, the location of the maximum neutron exposure rate may or may not coincide with the location of the maximum neutron exposure.

These data tabulations include both plant-and fuel-cycle-specific calculated neutron exposures at the end of Cycle 2 and projections to 32 and 36 EFPY. Projections of neutron exposure beyond the end of Cycle 7 are based on the expected core loading pattern and operating characteristics of Cycle 7. The projections of future exposure account for an anticipated power uprate from 3411 MWt to 3459 MWt occurring at the beginning of Cycle 4, and the presence of Tritium-Producing Burnable Absorber Rods (TPBARs) in the fuel for Cycle 4 and beyond.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-4 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Updated lead factors for the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance capsules are provided in Table 6-8. The capsule lead factor is defined as the ratio of the calculated fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) at the geometric radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule to the corresponding maximum calculated fluence at the pressure vessel clad/base metal interface.

6.3 NEUTRON DOSIMETRY The validity of the calculated neutron exposures previously reported in Section 6.2 is demonstrated by a direct comparison against the measured sensor reaction rates and a least-squares evaluation performed for each of the capsule dosimetry sets. However, since the neutron dosimetry measurement data merely serve to validate the calculated results, only the direct comparison of measured-to-calculated results for surveillance Capsule U is provided in this section of the report. For completeness, the assessment based on both direct and least-squares evaluation comparisons is documented in Appendix A.

The direct comparison of measured versus calculated fast neutron threshold reaction rates for the sensors from Capsule U, which was withdrawn from Watts Bar Unit 2 at the end of the 2nd fuel cycle, is summarized below.

12.7 The measured-to-calculated (M/C) reaction rate ratios for the Capsule U threshold reactions range from 0.72 to 1.01, and the average M/C ratio is 0.92 12.7% (1). This direct comparison falls within the 20%

criterion specified in Regulatory Guide 1.190. This comparison validates the current analytical results described in Section 6.2; therefore, the calculations are deemed applicable for Watts Bar Unit 2.

6.4 CALCULATIONAL UNCERTAINTIES The uncertainty associated with the calculated neutron exposure of the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance capsule and reactor pressure vessel is based on the recommended approach provided in Regulatory Guide 1.190. In particular, the qualification of the methodology was carried out in the following four stages:

1.

Simulator Benchmark Comparisons: Comparisons of calculations with measurements f rom simulator benchmarks, including the Pool Critical Assembly (PCA) simulator at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and the VENUS-1 Experiment.

2.

Operating Reactor and Calculational Benchmarks: Comparisons of calculations with surveillance capsule and reactor cavity measurements from the H.B. Robinson power reactor benchmark experiment. Also considered are comparisons of calculations performed with RAPTOR-M3G to results published in the NRC fluence calculation benchmark.

3.

Analytic Uncertainty Analysis: An analytical sensitivity study addressing the uncertainty components resulting from important input parameters applicable to the plant-specific transport calculations used in the neutron exposure assessments.

4.

Plant-Specific Benchmarking: Comparisons of the plant-specific calculations with all available dosimetry results from the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program.

The first phase of the methods qualification (simulator benchmark comparisons) addressed the adequacy of basic transport calculation and dosimetry evaluation techniques and associated cross-sections. This phase, however, did not test the accuracy of commercial core neutron source calculations nor did it address uncertainties in operational or geometric variables that impact power reactor calculations. The second phase of the qualification (operating reactor and calculational benchmark comparisons) addressed uncertainties in these additional areas that are primarily methods-related and would tend to apply generically to all fast neutron exposure evaluations. The third phase of the qualification (analytical sensitivity study) identified the potential uncertainties introduced into the overall evaluation due to calculational methods approximations, as well as to a lack of knowledge relative to various plant-specific input parameters. The overall calculational uncertainty applicable to the Watts Bar Unit 2 analysis was established from results of these three phases of the methods qualification.

The fourth phase of the uncertainty assessment (comparisons with Watts Bar Unit 2 measurements) was used solely to demonstrate the validity of the transport calculations and to confirm the uncertainty estimates associated with the analytical results. The comparison was used only as a check and was not used in any way to modify the calculated surveillance capsule and pressure vessel neutron exposures previously described in Section 6.2. As such, the validation of the Watts Bar Unit 2 analytical model based on the measured plant dosimetry is completely described in Appendix A.

The following summarizes the uncertainties developed from the first three phases of the methodology qualification. Additional information pertinent to these evaluations is provided in Westinghouse Report WCAP-18124-NP-A, Fluence Determination with RAPTOR-M3G and FERRET [Ref. 17].

Description Capsule and Vessel IR Simulator Benchmark Comparisons 3%

H.B. Robinson Benchmark Comparisons 5%

Analytical Sensitivity Studies 11%

Additional Uncertainty for Factors not Explicitly Evaluated 5%

Net Calculational Uncertainty 13%

The net calculational uncertainty was determined by combining the individual components in quadrature.

Therefore, the resultant uncertainty was treated as random, and no systematic bias was applied to the

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-6 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 analytical results. The plant-specific measurement comparisons described in Appendix A support these uncertainty assessments for Watts Bar Unit 2.

The NRC-issued Safety Evaluation for WCAP-18124-NP appears in Section A of Ref. 17. The NRC identified two Limitations and Conditions associated with the application of RAPTOR-M3G and FERRET, which are reproduced here for convenience:

1. Applicability of WCAP-18124-NP, Revision 0 is limited to the RPV region near the active height of the core based on the uncertainty analysis performed and the measurement data provided.

Additional justification should be provided via additional benchmarking, fluence sensitivity analysis to the response parameters of interest (e.g. pressure-temperature limits, material stress/strain), margin assessment, or a combination thereof, for applications of the method to components including, but not limited to, the RPV upper circumferential weld and the reactor coolant system inlet and outlet nozzles and reactor vessel internal components.

2. Least squares adjustment is acceptable if the adjustments to the M/C ratios and to the calculated spectra values are within the assigned uncertainties of the calculated spectra, the dosimetry measured reaction rates, and the dosimetry reaction cross sections. Should this not be the case, the user should re-examine both measured and calculated values for possible errors. If errors cannot be found, the particular values causing the discrepancy should be disqualified.

The primary purpose of this report is to describe the evaluation of a surveillance capsule. The neutron exposure values applicable to the surveillance capsules and the maximum reactor pressure vessel neutron exposure values used to derive the surveillance capsule lead factors are completely covered by the benchmarking and uncertainty analyses in WCAP-18124-NP. Therefore, Limitation #1 does not strictly apply. Note, however, that this report does contain neutron exposure values for materials that are outside the qualification basis of WCAP-18124-NP (i.e. extended beltline materials). Should values outside the qualification basis of WCAP-18124-NP be cited in future evaluations of reactor vessel integrity, additional justification should be supplied, as stated in Limitation #1.

Limitation #2 applies in situations where the least squares analysis is used to adjust the calculated values of neutron exposure. In this report, the least squares analysis is provided only as a supplemental check on the results of the dosimetry evaluation. The least squares analysis was not used to modify the calculated surveillance capsule or reactor pressure vessel neutron exposure. Therefore, Limitation #2 does not apply.

[Ref. 8]. Note that it is recommended for future capsule(s) to be removed from the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel.

Notes:

(a) Effective full-power years (EFPY) from plant startup. The projected EFPY and end-of-cycle (EOC) values assume the Measurement Uncertainty Recapture (MUR) uprate and TPBARs are implemented at the beginning of Cycle 4.

(b) This capsule should be withdrawn at the outage nearest to but following 7.0 EFPY of operation. This outage is projected to occur at EOC 6. However, the capsule withdrawal should be based on actual plant EFPY as opposed to the estimated cycle.

(c) Capsule X must be withdrawn between 7.0 EFPY and 13.7 EFPY in order satisfy the requirements of the third capsule for EOL per ASTM E185-82 [Ref. 8]. However, if the capsule is removed after 11.7 EFPY (but still before 13.7 EFPY), this capsule will satisfy the requirements of the third capsule for both end of license (EOL, 40 years) and end of a potential license extension (60 years) per ASTM E185-82 [Ref. 8] and NUREG-1801, Revision 2 [Ref. 18]. Thus, if possible, the capsule should be pulled between 11.7 EFPY and 13.7 EFPY, but the capsule must be pulled between 7.0 EFPY and 13.7 EFPY. The removal EFPY of the third capsule should be revisited at a later date, such as after Capsule W is removed.

(d) Capsules Z, V, and Y should remain in the reactor. The potential for future removal and storage of some or all of these standby capsules should be revisited at a later date, such as with the withdrawal and testing of Capsule W. If additional metallurgical data is needed, such as in support of a first (60 years) or second (80 years) license renewal, withdrawal and testing of these capsules should be considered when planning for withdrawal of Capsule X in anticipation of any license renewal effort. Note, ASTM E185-82 and NUREG-1801, Revision 2 recommend that the capsules not experience twice the end of life fluence. Therefore, the potential for future removal and storage of some or all of these standby capsules should be revisited at a later date, such as with the withdrawal and testing of Capsule W.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-1 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 APPENDIX A VALIDATION OF THE RADIATION TRANSPORT MODELS BASED ON NEUTRON DOSIMETRY MEASUREMENTS NEUTRON DOSIMETRY Comparisons of measured dosimetry results to both the calculated and least-squares adjusted values for Capsule U are provided in this appendix. The sensor sets have been analyzed in accordance with the current dosimetry evaluation methodology described in Regulatory Guide 1.190, Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence [Ref. A-1]. One of the main purposes for providing this material is to demonstrate that the overall measurements agree with the calculated and least-squares adjusted values to within 20% as specified by Regulatory Guide 1.190, thus serving to validate the calculated neutron exposures previously reported in Section 6.2 of this report.

A.1.1 Sensor Reaction Rate Determinations In this section, the results of the evaluations of Capsule U are presented. The capsule designation, location within the reactor, and time of withdrawal are as follows:

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-2 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 The passive neutron sensors included in these evaluations are summarized as follows:

Sensor Material Reaction Of Interest Capsule U Copper Cu-63 (n,) Co-60 X

Iron Fe-54 (n,p) Mn-54 X

Nickel Ni-58 (n,p) Co-58 X

Uranium-238 U-238 (n,f) Cs-137 X

Neptunium-237 Np-237 (n,f) Cs-137 X

Cobalt-Aluminum(a)

Co-59 (n,) Co-60 X

Notes:

(a) The cobalt-aluminum and uranium sensors include both bare and cadmium-covered sensors.

Since all of the dosimetry monitors were located at the radial center of the material test specimen array, gradient corrections were not required for these reaction rates. Pertinent physical and nuclear characteristics of the passive neutron sensors analyzed are listed in Table A-1.

The use of passive monitors does not yield a direct measure of the energy-dependent neutron exposure rate at the point of interest. Rather, the activation or fission process is a measure of the integrated effect that the time-and energy-dependent neutron exposure rate has on the target material over the course of the irradiation period. An accurate assessment of the average neutron exposure rate incident on the various monitors may be derived from the activation measurements only if the irradiation parameters are well known. In particular, the following variables are of interest:

the measured specific activity of each monitor, the physical characteristics of each monitor, the operating history of the reactor, the energy response of each monitor, and the neutron energy spectrum at the monitor location.

The radiometric counting of the sensors from Capsule U was carried out by Pace Analytical Services, Inc.

The radiometric counting followed established ASTM procedures.

The irradiation history of the reactor over the irradiation periods was based on the monthly power generation of Watts Bar Unit 2 from initial reactor criticality through the end of the dosimetry evaluation period. For the sensor sets utilized in the surveillance capsules, the half-lives of the product isotopes are long enough that a monthly histogram describing reactor operation has proven to be an adequate representation for use in radioactive decay corrections for the reactions of interest in the exposure evaluations. The irradiation history is given in Table A-2.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-3 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Having the measured specific activities, the physical characteristics of the sensors, and the operating history of the reactor, reaction rates referenced to full-power operation were determined from the following equation:

R A

NFY P PC1 ee, where:

R

=

Reaction rate averaged over the irradiation period and referenced to operation at a core power level of Pref (rps/nucleus).

A

=

Measured specific activity (dps/g).

N0

=

Number of target element atoms per gram of sensor.

F

=

Atom fraction of the target isotope in the target element.

Y

=

Number of product atoms produced per reaction.

Pj

=

Average core power level during irradiation period j (MW).

Pref

=

Maximum or reference power level of the reactor (MW).

Cj

=

Calculated ratio of (E > 1.0 MeV) during irradiation period j to the time weighted average (E > 1.0 MeV) over the entire irradiation period.

=

Decay constant of the product isotope (1/sec).

tj

=

Length of irradiation period j (sec).

td,j

=

Decay time following irradiation period j (sec).

The summation is carried out over the total number of monthly intervals comprising the irradiation period.

In the equation describing the reaction rate calculation, the ratio [Pj]/[Pref] accounts for month-by-month variation of reactor core power level within any given fuel cycle as well as over multiple fuel cycles. The ratio Cj, which was calculated for each fuel cycle using the transport methodology discussed in Section 6.2, accounts for the change in sensor reaction rates caused by variations in exposure rate level induced by changes in core spatial power distributions from fuel cycle to fuel cycle. For a single-cycle irradiation, Cj is normally taken to be 1.0. However, for multiple-cycle irradiations, the additional Cj term should be employed. The impact of changing exposure rate levels for constant power operation can be quite significant for sensor sets that have been irradiated for many cycles in a reactor that has transitioned from non-low-leakage to low-leakage fuel management or for sensor sets contained in surveillance capsules that have been moved from one capsule location to another.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-4 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 The fuel-cycle-specific neutron exposure rates and the computed values for Cj are listed in Table A-3 and Table A-4, respectively. These exposure rates represent the capsule-and cycle-dependent results at the radial and azimuthal center of the respective capsules at core midplane.

Prior to using the measured reaction rates in the least-squares evaluations of the dosimetry sensor sets, additional corrections were made to the U-238 measurements to account for the presence of 235U impurities in the sensors, as well as to adjust for the build-in of plutonium isotopes over the course of the irradiation.

Corrections were also made to the U-238 and Np-237 sensor reaction rates to account for gamma-ray-induced fission reactions that occurred over the course of the surveillance capsule irradiations. The correction factors corresponding to the Watts Bar Unit 2 fission sensor reaction rates are summarized as follows:

Correction Capsule U U-235 Impurity/Pu Build-in 0.8609 U-238 (,f) 0.9637 Net U-238 Correction 0.8296 Np-237 (,f) 0.9898 The correction factors were applied in a multiplicative fashion to the decay-corrected cadmium-covered uranium fission sensor reaction rates.

Results of the sensor reaction rate determinations are given in Table A-5. In Table A-5, the measured specific activities, decay-corrected saturated specific activities, and computed reaction rates for each sensor are listed.

A.1.2 Least-Squares Evaluation of Sensor Sets Least-squares adjustment methods provide the capability of combining the measurement data with the corresponding neutron transport calculations resulting in a best-estimate neutron energy spectrum with associated uncertainties. Best-estimates for key exposure parameters such as fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) or dpa/s along with their uncertainties are then easily obtained from the adjusted spectrum. In general, the least-squares methods, as applied to dosimetry evaluations, act to reconcile the measured sensor reaction rate data, dosimetry reaction cross-sections, and the calculated neutron energy spectrum within their respective uncertainties. For example,

relates a set of measured reaction rates, Ri, to a single neutron spectrum, g, through the multigroup dosimeter reaction cross-sections, ig, each with an uncertainty. The primary objective of the least-squares evaluation is to produce unbiased estimates of the neutron exposure parameters at the location of the measurement.

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-5 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 For the least-squares evaluation of the Watts Bar Unit 2 dosimetry, the FERRET code [Ref. A-2] was employed to combine the results of the plant-specific neutron transport calculations and sensor set reaction rate measurements to determine the best-estimate values of exposure parameters (fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa) and their associated uncertainties.

The application of the least-squares methodology requires the following input:

1.

The calculated neutron energy spectrum and associated uncertainties at the measurement location.

2.

The measured reaction rates and associated uncertainty for each sensor contained in the multiple foil set.

3.

The energy-dependent dosimetry reaction cross-sections and associated uncertainties for each sensor contained in the multiple foil sensor set.

For the Watts Bar Unit 2 application, the calculated neutron spectrum was obtained from the results of plant-specific neutron transport calculations described in Section 6.2 of this report. The sensor reaction rates were derived from the measured specific activities using the procedures described in Section A.1.1. The dosimetry reaction cross-sections and uncertainties were obtained from the SNLRML dosimetry cross-section library [Ref. A-3].

The uncertainties associated with the measured reaction rates, dosimetry cross-sections, and calculated neutron spectrum were input to the least-squares procedure in the form of variances and covariances. The assignment of the input uncertainties followed the guidance provided in ASTM Standard E944, Standard Guide for Application of Neutron Spectrum Adjustment Methods in Reactor Surveillance [Ref. A-4].

The following provides a summary of the uncertainties associated with the least-squares evaluation of the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance capsule sensor sets.

Reaction Rate Uncertainties The overall uncertainty associated with the measured reaction rates includes components due to the basic measurement process, irradiation history corrections, and corrections for competing reactions. A high level of accuracy in the reaction rate determinations is ensured by utilizing laboratory procedures that conform to the ASTM National Consensus Standards for reaction rate determinations for each sensor type.

After combining all of these uncertainty components, the sensor reaction rates derived from the counting and data evaluation procedures were assigned the following net uncertainties for input to the least-squares evaluation:

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-6 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Reaction Uncertainty 63Cu (n,) 60Co 5%

54Fe (n,p) 54Mn 5%

58Ni (n,p) 58Co 5%

59Co (n,) 60Co 5%

238U (n,f) FP 10%

237Np (n,f) FP 10%

These uncertainties are given at the 1 level.

Dosimetry Cross-Section Uncertainties The reaction rate cross-sections used in the least-squares evaluations were taken from the SNLRML library.

This data library provides reaction cross-sections and associated uncertainties, including covariances, for 66 dosimetry sensors in common use. Both cross-sections and uncertainties are provided in a fine multigroup structure for use in least-squares adjustment applications. These cross-sections were compiled from recent cross-section evaluations, and they have been tested for accuracy and consistency for least-squares evaluations. Further, the library has been empirically tested for use in fission spectra determination, as well as in the fluence and energy characterization of 14 MeV neutron sources.

For sensors included in the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program, the following uncertainties in the fission spectrum averaged cross-sections are provided in the SNLRML documentation package.

Reaction Uncertainty Cu-63 (n,) Co-60 4.08-4.16%

Fe-54 (n,p) Mn-54 3.05-3.11%

Ni-58 (n,p) Co-58 4.49-4.56%

Co-59 (n,) Co-60 0.79-3.59%

U-238 (n,f) 0.54-0.64%

Np-237 (n,f) 10.32-10.97%

These tabulated ranges provide an indication of the dosimetry cross-section uncertainties associated with the sensor sets used in LWR irradiations.

Calculated Neutron Spectrum The neutron spectra inputs to the least-squares adjustment procedure were obtained directly from the results of plant-specific transport calculations for each surveillance capsule irradiation period and location. The spectrum for each capsule was input in an absolute sense (rather than as simply a relative spectral shape).

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-7 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Therefore, within the constraints of the assigned uncertainties, the calculated data were treated equally with the measurements.

While the uncertainties associated with the reaction rates were obtained from the measurement procedures and counting benchmarks and the dosimetry cross-section uncertainties were supplied directly with the SNLRML library, the uncertainty matrix for the calculated spectrum was constructed from the following relationship:

gg' g'

g 2

n gg' P

R R

R M

where Rn specifies an overall fractional normalization uncertainty and the fractional uncertainties Rg and Rg specify additional random groupwise uncertainties that are correlated with a correlation matrix given by:

e +

Where:

The first term in the correlation matrix equation specifies purely random uncertainties, while the second term describes the short-range correlations over a group range ( specifies the strength of the latter term).

The value of is 1.0 when g = g, and is 0.0 otherwise.

The set of parameters defining the input covariance matrix for the Watts Bar Unit 2 calculated spectra was as follows:

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-8 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 A.1.3 Comparisons of Measurements and Calculations Results of the least-squares evaluations are provided in Table A-6. In these tables, measured, calculated, and best-estimate values for sensor reaction rates are given. Also provided in these tabulations are ratios of the measured reaction rates to both the calculated and least-squares adjusted reaction rates. These ratios of measured-to-calculated (M/C) and measured-to-best estimate (M/BE) illustrate the consistency of the fit of the calculated neutron energy spectra to the measured reaction rates both before and after adjustment.

Additionally, comparisons of the calculated and best-estimate values of neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacement rate are tabulated along with the best estimate-to-calculated (BE/C) ratios observed for each of the capsules.

The data comparisons provided in Table A-6 show that the adjustments to the calculated spectra are relatively small and within the assigned uncertainties for the calculated spectra, measured sensor reaction rates, and dosimetry reaction cross-sections. Further, these results indicate that the use of the least-squares evaluation results in a reduction in the uncertainties associated with the exposure of the surveillance capsules. From Section 6.4 of this report, the calculational uncertainty is specified as 13% at the 1 level.

Further comparisons of the measurement results with calculations are given in Table A-7 and Table A-8. In Table A-7, calculations of individual threshold sensor reaction rates are compared directly with the corresponding measurements. These threshold reaction rate comparisons provide a good evaluation of the accuracy of the fast neutron portion of the calculated energy spectra. In Table A-8, calculations of fast neutron exposure rates in terms of fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence rate and dpa/s are compared with the best-estimate results obtained from the least-squares evaluation of the capsule dosimetry results. These comparisons yield consistent and similar results with all measurement-to-calculation comparisons falling within the 20% limits specified as the acceptance criteria in Regulatory Guide 1.190.

In the case of the direct comparison of the measured and calculated sensor reaction rates, for the individual threshold foils considered in the least-squares analysis, the M/C comparisons of the fast neutron threshold reactions range from 0.72 to 1.01. The overall average M/C ratio is 0.92 with an associated standard deviation of 12.7%.

In the case of the comparison of the best-estimate and calculated fast neutron exposure parameters, the BE/C comparisons are 0.92 and 0.93 for fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence rate and iron atom displacement rate, respectively.

Based on these comparisons, it is concluded that the calculated fast neutron exposures provided in Section 6.2 of this report are validated for use in the assessment of the condition of the materials comprising the beltline region of the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor pressure vessel.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 C-1 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 APPENDIX C CHARPY V-NOTCH PLOTS FOR BASELINE AND CAPSULE U USING SYMMETRIC HYPERBOLIC TANGENT CURVE-FITTING METHOD METHODOLOGY Contained in Table C-1 are the upper-shelf energy (USE) values that are used as input for the generation of the Charpy V-notch plots using CVGRAPH, Version 6.02. The definition for USE is given in ASTM E185-82 [Ref. C-1], Section 4.18, and reads as follows:

upper shelf energy level - the average energy value for all Charpy specimens (normally three) whose test temperature is above the upper end of the transition region. For specimens tested in sets of three at each test temperature, the set having the highest average may be regarded as defining the upper shelf energy.

Westinghouse reports the average of all Charpy data ( 95% shear) as the USE, excluding any values that are deemed outliers using engineering judgment. Hence, the Capsule U USE values reported in Table C-1 were determined by applying this methodology to the Charpy data tabulated in Table 5-1 through Table 5-4 of this report. USE values documented in Table C-1 for the unirradiated material were also determined by applying the methodology described above to the Charpy impact data reported in WCAP-9455 [Refs. C-2 and C-3]. The USE values reported in Table C-1 were used in generation of the Charpy V-notch curves.

The lower-shelf energy values were fixed at 2.2 ft-lb for all cases. The lower-shelf lateral expansion values were fixed at 1.0 mil in order to be consistent with the previous capsule analysis. Similarly, the upper-shelf energy must also be fixed for curve-fitting the Charpy V-Notch (CVN) Energy data using the values reported in in Table C-1. However, the upper-shelf lateral expansion is not fixed in CVGRAPH.

USE is expected to decrease as a function of fluence and copper content. As expected, this decrease in USE was exhibited from the unirradiated materials to the Capsule U materials.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-1 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 APPENDIX D WATTS BAR UNIT 2 SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM CREDIBILITY EVALUATION INTRODUCTION Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. D-1] describes general procedures acceptable to the NRC staff for calculating the effects of neutron radiation embrittlement of the low-alloy steels currently used for light-water-cooled reactor vessels. Position C.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, describes the method for calculating the adjusted reference temperature and Charpy upper-shelf energy of reactor vessel beltline materials using surveillance capsule data. The methods of Position C.2 can only be applied when two or more credible surveillance data sets become available from the reactor in question.

Capsule U is the first surveillance capsule to be removed and tested from the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel.

In accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, the credibility of the surveillance data will be judged based on five criteria. However, criterion 3 requires at least two data sets in order to determine the credibility. Since this is the first capsule withdrawn from Watts Bar Unit 2, this criterion cannot be applied to the surveillance forging. For this reason, the credibility of the surveillance forging cannot be determined due to the limited data available. The surveillance weld Heat # was utilized in the surveillance programs of sister-plants; therefore, criterion 3 can be applied to the surveillance weld with consideration of all available sister-plant data.

The purpose of this evaluation is to apply the credibility requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, to the Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel surveillance weld data and determine if that surveillance data is credible.

EVALUATION Criterion 1: Materials in the capsules should be those judged most likely to be controlling with regard to radiation embrittlement.

The beltline region of the reactor vessel is defined in Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50, Fracture Toughness Requirements [Ref. D-2], as follows:

the region of the reactor vessel (shell material including welds, heat affected zones, and plates or forgings) that directly surrounds the effective height of the active core and adjacent regions of the reactor vessel that are predicted to experience sufficient neutron radiation damage to be considered in the selection of the most limiting material with regard to radiation damage.

The Watts Bar Unit 2 reactor vessel consists of the following beltline region materials:

Upper Shell Forging 06, Heat # 411572 Intermediate Shell Forging 05, Heat # 527828 Lower Shell Forging 04, Heat # 528658 Bottom Head Ring 03, Heat # 5329

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-2 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Upper Shell Forging to Intermediate Shell Forging Circumferential Weld Seam W06 (Weld Wire Heat # 899680 with type Grau L.O. (LW320) flux, lot P23)

Intermediate Shell Forging 05 to Lower Shell Forging 04 Circumferential Weld Seam W05 (Weld Wire Heat # 895075 with type Grau L.O. (LW320) flux, lot P46)

Lower Shell Forging 04 to Bottom Head Ring 03 Circumferential Weld Seam W04 (Weld Wire Heat # 899680 with type Grau L.O. (LW320) flux, lot P23)

The Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program utilizes tangential and axial test specimens from the Intermediate Shell Forging 05, Heat # 527828. The surveillance weldment is identical to the closing girth seam weldment between forging 04 and 05. The closing seam used weld wire Heat # 895075 with type Grau L.O. (LW320) flux, lot P46, except for the 1-inch root pass at the I.D. of the vessel. This root pass used weld wire Heat # 899680 with type Grau L.O. (LW320) flux, lot P23, with an as-deposited copper and phosphorous content of 0.03 and 0.009, respectively. However, the surveillance weldment specimens were not removed from this root area.

Per WCAP-9455 [Ref. D-3], the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program was developed to the requirements of ASTM E185-73. At the time of the surveillance program development, the Upper Shell Forging 06 and Bottom Head Ring 03 were not considered a beltline material. Of the other beltline forgings, Intermediate Shell Forging 05 was foreseen to be the most limiting forging. Intermediate Shell Forging 05 has the highest estimated initial and end of life RTNDT and the lowest initial upper-shelf energy value of the Watts Bar Unit 2 beltline forgings. The chemistry values (Cu and Ni weight percent) for the beltline forgings are relatively consistent and no forging is clearly differentiated from the rest by its high copper or nickel content. Therefore, Intermediate Shell Forging 05 was appropriately selected as the base metal material for the surveillance program.

Intermediate Shell Forging 05 to Lower Shell Forging 04 Circumferential Weld Seam W05 was considered the only weld in the beltline region and therefore, was representative of all the beltline welds. Hence, the surveillance program weld was fabricated with the same weld wire heat (# 895075), the same type flux (LW320), and the same flux lot (# P46) as the Intermediate to Lower Shell Forging Circumferential Weld Seam W05.

Therefore, the materials selected for use in the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program were those judged to be most likely limiting with regard to radiation embrittlement according to the accepted methodology at the time the surveillance program was developed.

Based on the discussion above, Criterion 1 is met for the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program.

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-3 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Criterion 2: Scatter in the plots of Charpy energy versus temperature for the irradiated and unirradiated conditions should be small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature and upper-shelf energy unambiguously.

Based on engineering judgment, the scatter in the data presented in these plots, as documented in Section 5, is small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature and the upper-shelf energy of the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance materials unambiguously.

Hence, the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program meets Criterion 2.

Criterion 3: When there are two or more sets of surveillance data from one reactor, the scatter of RTNDT values about a best-fit line drawn as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 normally should be less than 28°F for welds and 17°F for base metal. Even if the fluence range is large (two or more orders of magnitude), the scatter should not exceed twice those values. Even if the data fail this criterion for use in shift calculations, they may be credible for determining decrease in upper-shelf energy if the upper shelf can be clearly determined, following the definition given in ASTM E185-82 [Ref. D-4].

This criterion requires at least two data sets in order to determine the credibility. Since this is the first capsule withdrawn from Watts Bar Unit 2, this criterion cannot be applied to the surveillance forging.

However, since the surveillance weld Heat # was utilized in the surveillance programs of sister-plants, this criterion can be applied to the surveillance weld.

The functional form of the least squares method as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 will be utilized to determine a best-fit line for this data and to determine if the scatter of these RTNDT values about this line is less than 28°F for welds and less than 17°F for plates or forgings.

Following is the calculation of the best-fit line as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. In addition, the recommended NRC methods for determining credibility will be followed.

The NRC methods were presented to the industry at a meeting held by the NRC on February 12 and 13, 1998 [Ref. D-5]. Of the five cases, Case 4 (Surveillance Data from Plant and Other Sources) most closely represents the situation for the Watts Bar Unit 2 Intermediate to Lower Shell Circumferential Weld Seam W05 (Heat # 895075) weld material. Since only one capsule has been tested, an evaluation of the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance data alone cannot be completed.

Evaluation of Weld Data from All Sources (Case 4)

In accordance with the NRC Case 4 guidelines, the data from all sources should be adjusted to the mean chemical composition of all the data. Data applicable to the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance weld material is also available from the Catawba Unit 1, Watts Bar Unit 1, and McGuire Unit 2 surveillance programs.

Table D-3 indicates that 12 of the 12 surveillance data points fall inside the +/- 1 of 28F scatter band for surveillance weld materials. 100% of the data are bounded; therefore, the surveillance weld data is deemed credible per the third criterion.

• • • This record was final approved on 3/26/2020 8:08:22 AM. (This statement was added by the PRIME system upon its validation)

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-8 WCAP-18518-NP March 2020 Revision 0 Criterion 4: The irradiation temperature of the Charpy specimens in the capsule should match the vessel wall temperature at the cladding/base metal interface within +/- 25°F.

The capsule specimens are located in the reactor between the neutron shield pads and the vessel wall and are positioned opposite the center of the core. The test capsules are located in guide tubes attached to the neutron shielding pads. The location of the specimens with respect to the reactor vessel beltline provides assurance that the reactor vessel wall and the specimens experience equivalent operating conditions such that the temperatures will not differ by more than 25°F. Hence, this criterion is met.

Hence, Criterion 4 is met for the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program.

Criterion 5: The surveillance data for the correlation monitor material in the capsule should fall within the scatter band of the database for that material.

Correlation Monitor Materials (CMM) were included in some plants reactor vessel surveillance programs in order to provide data to improve the predictive model and confirm Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.99.

See NUREG/CR-6413, ORNL/TM-13133 [Ref. D-8]. However, the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program does not contain correlation monitor material. Hence, this criterion is not applicable to the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance program.

CONCLUSION Based on the preceding responses to the 5 criteria of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Section B, the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance weld data for Heat # 895075 are deemed credible. Since only one capsule has been withdrawn and tested containing the Watts Bar Unit 2 surveillance forging material, insufficient data exists to determine the credibility of the surveillance forging material.
