In addition, excerpts from an existing IP2 operating procedure for plant heatup are being submitted as an example to demonstrate how IP2 applies instrument uncertainty to the values in the TS curves. Although the 10CFR50, Appendix G pressure/temperature limitations included in the Indian Point 2 Technical Specifications do not include explicit margins to account for instrument uncertainties, the limits in the operating procedures are decreased to account for pressure and temperature uncertainties, as well as system hydraulic losses and elevation corrections. Attachment 1 of this submittal contains excerpts from an IP2 operating procedure.

==SUMMARY==
==SUMMARY==
This report provides the methodology and results of the generation of heatup and cooldown pressure temperature limit curves for normal operation of the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel. In addition, Pressure Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) support information, such as Fluence, PTS, EOL USE and Withdrawal Schedule, are documented herein under the Appendices. The PT curves were generated based on the latest available reactor vessel information and updated fluences (Appendix B). The new Indian Point Unit 2 heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves were generated using ASME Code Case N-640t 33 (which allows the use of the K1, methodology) and the axial flaw methodology of the 1995 ASME Code, Section XI through the 1996 Addenda.
It should be noted that Indian Point was limited at the 1/4T location by the intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld and at the 3/4T location by the intermediate shell plate B-2002-3. The pressure temperature (PT) limit curves presented in Section 5 are those developed using the axial flaw methodology with the most limiting axial flaw adjusted reference temperatures (ARTs). Theses PT curves bound the PT curves that used the ASME Code Case N-588t 41 (Circ. Flaw Methodology) with the most limiting Circ Flaw ARTs. The circ. flaw PT curves are presented in Appendix G herein.


This report provides the methodology and results of the generation of heatup and cooldown pressure temperature limit curves for normal operation of the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel. In addition, Pressure Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) support information, such as Fluence, PTS , EOL USE and Withdrawal Schedule, are documented herein under the Appendices. The PT curves were generated based on the latest available reactor vessel information and updated fluences (Appendix B). The new Indian Point Unit 2 heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves were generated using ASME Code Case N-640t 33 (which allows the use of the K1, methodology) and the axial flaw methodology of the 1995 ASME Code, Section XI through the 1996 Addenda.
1 INTRODUCTION Heatup and cooldown lnimt curves are calculated using the adjusted RTNDT (reference mil-ductility temperature) corresponding to the limiting beitline region material of the reactor vessel. The adjusted RTNDT of the limiting material in the core region of the reactor vessel is determined by using the unirradiated reactor vessel material fracture toughness properties, estimating the radiation-induced ARTNDT, and adding a margin. The unirradiated RThryT is designated as the higher of either the drop weight nil ductility transition temperature (NDTT) or the temperature at which the material exhibits at least 50 ft-lb of impact energy and 35-mil lateral expansion (normal to the major working direction) minus 601F.
It should be noted that Indian Point was limited at the 1/4T location by the intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld and at the 3/4T location by the intermediate shell plate B-2002-3. The pressure temperature (PT) limit curves presented in Section 5 are those developed using the axial flaw methodology with the most limiting axial flaw adjusted reference temperatures (ARTs). Theses PT t 41 curves bound the PT curves that used the ASME Code Case N-588 (Circ. Flaw Methodology) with the most limiting Circ Flaw ARTs. The circ. flaw PT curves are presented in Appendix G herein.
RTNDT increases as the material is exposed to fast-neutron radiation. Therefore, to find the most limiting RTNDT at any time period in the reactor's life, ARTNDT due to the radiation exposure associated with that time period must be added to the unirradiated RTNDT (IRTNDT). The extent of the shift in RTNDT is enhanced by certain chemical elements (such as copper and nickel) present in reactor vessel steels. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has published a method for predicting radiation embrittlement in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, "Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials.''t 51 Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, is used for the calculation of Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART) values (IRTNDT + ARTNDT + margins for uncertainties) at the 1/4T and 3/4T locations, where T is the thickness of the vessel at the beltline region measured from the clad/base metal interface.
 
The heatup and cooldown curves documented in this report were generated using the most limiting ART values and the NRC approved methodology documented in WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2[6],

At any time during the heatup or cooldown transient, K1 , is determined by the metal temperature at the tip of a postulated flaw at the 1/4T and 3/4T location, the appropriate value for RTNDT, and the reference fracture toughness curve. The thermal stresses resulting from the temperature gradients through the vessel wall are calculated and then the corresponding (thermal) stress intensity factors, Kit, for the reference flaw are computed. From Equation 2, the pressure stress intensity factors are obtained and, from these, the allowable pressures are calculated.

From Equation 2, the pressure stress intensity factors are obtained and, from these, the allowable pressures are calculated.
For the calculation of the allowable pressure versus coolant temperature during cooldown, the reference flaw of Appendix G to the ASME Code is assumed to exist at the inside of the vessel wall. During cooldown, the controlling location of the flaw is always at the inside of the wall because the thermal gradients produce tensile stresses at the inside, which increase with increasing cooldown rates. Allowable pressure-temperature relations are generated for both steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations. From these relations, composite limit curves are constructed for each cooldown rate of interest.

Allowable pressure-temperature relations are generated for both steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations. From these relations, composite limit curves are constructed for each cooldown rate of interest.
The use of the composite curve in the cooldown analysis is necessary because control of the cooldown procedure is based on the measurement of reactor coolant temperature, whereas the limiting pressure is actually dependent on the material temperature at the tip of the assumed flaw. During cooldown, the 1/4T vessel location is at a higher temperature than the fluid adjacent to the vessel inner diameter. This condition, of course, is not true for the steady-state situation. It follows that, at any given reactor coolant temperature, the AT (temperature) developed during cooldown results in a higher value of Ki, at the 1/4T location for finite cooldown rates than for steady-state operation. Furthermore, if conditions exist so that the increase in Kic exceeds KI, the calculated allowable pressure during cooldown will be greater than the steady-state value.

Figure 1 presents the limiting heatup curves without margins for possible instrumentation errors using heatup rates of 60 and 100&deg;F/hr applicable for the first 25 EFPY. This curve was generated using the1996 ASME Code Section XI, Appendix G with the limiting plate ARTs. It bounds the heatup curves (found in Appendix G) generated using ASME Code Case N-588 with the limiting circ weld ARTs. Figure 2 presents the limiting cooldown curves without margins for possible instrumentation errors using cooldown rates of 0, 20, 40, 60 and 100'F/hr applicable for 25 EFPY. Again, this curve was generated using the 1996 ASME Code Section XI, Appendix G with the limiting plate ARTs. It bounds the cooldown curves (found in Appendix G) generated using ASME Code Case N-588 with the limiting circ weld ARTs.

The criticality limit curve specifies pressure-temperature limits for core operation to provide additional margin during actual power production as specified in Reference 13. The pressure-temperature limits for core operation (except for low power physics tests) are that the reactor vessel must be at a temperature equal to or higher than the minimum temperature required for the inservice hydrostatic test, and at least 40'F higher than the minimum permissible temperature in the corresponding pressure-temperature curve for heatup and cooldown calculated as described in Section 3.0 of this report. For the heatup and cooldown curves without margins for instrumentation errors, the minimum temperature for the in service hydrostatic leak tests for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel at 25 EFPY is 255 OF. The vertical line drawn from these points on the pressure-temperature curve, intersecting a curve 40&deg;F higher than the pressure temperature limit curve, constitutes the limit for core operation for the reactor vessel.

The vertical line drawn from these points on the pressure-temperature curve, intersecting a curve 40&deg;F higher than the pressure temperature limit curve, constitutes the limit for core operation for the reactor vessel.

20 Figures 1 and 2 define all of the above limits for ensuring prevention of nonductile failure for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel. The data points used for the heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves shown in Figures 1 and 2 are presented in Tables 12 and 13. By comparison to the curves and data points in Appendix (Qit can be seen that the curves in Figures 1 and 2 bound the curves using code case N 588 with a slightly higher 1/4T ART.

A-1 PTS Calculations:
The PTS Rule requires that for each pressurized water nuclear power reactor for which an operating license has been issued, the licensee shall have projected values of RTPTS , accepted by the NRC, for each reactor vessel beltline material for the EOL fluence of the material. This assessment must specify the basis for the projected value of RTpTs for each vessel beltline material, including the assumptions regarding core loading patterns, and must specify the copper and nickel contents and the fluence value used in the calculation. This assessment must be updated whenever there is a significant change in projected values of RTPTS, or upon request for a change in the expiration date for operation of the facility. (Changes to RTpTs values are considered significant if either the previous value or the current value, or both values, exceed the screening criterion prior to the expiration of the operating license, including any renewed term, if applicable, for the plant.

To verify that RTrDT , for each vessel beltline material is a bounding value for the specific reactor vessel, licensees shall consider plant-specific information that could affect the level of embrittlement. This information includes but is not limited to the reactor vessel operating temperature and any related surveillance program results. (Surveillance program results mean any data that demonstrates the embrittlement trends for the limiting beltline material, including but not limited to data from test reactors or from surveillance programs at other plants with or without surveillance program integrated per 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix H.)

For this analysis, all of the transport calculations were carried out using the DORT discrete ordinates code Version 3. P] and the BUGLE-96 cross-section library[41 . The BUGLE-96 library provides a 67 group coupled neutron-gamma ray cross-section data set produced specifically for light water reactor application.

In these analyses, anisotropic scattering was treated with a P 5 legendre expansion and the angular discretization was modeled with an S16 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.

In the first instance, ratios of measured and calculated sensor reaction rates (M/C) were compared for all fast neutron sensors contained in the surveillance capsules withdrawn to date. In the second case, comparisons of calculated and least squares adjusted best estimate values of neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa were examined.

The observed M/C ratios for twelve of the 13 samples ranged from 0.87 to 1.16 with the remaining sample [ 63Cu(n,a)6&deg;Co reaction] exhibiting an M/C ratio of 1.22. This data set of M/C ratios from the Indian Point Unit 2 surveillance capsules indicates that the +/- 20% acceptance criterion specified in DG-105331' has been met by the current neutron transport calculations.

The corresponding best estimate to calculation (BE/C) comparisons for neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) spanned a range of 0.948 to 1.056 with an average BE/C ratio of 1.017 +/- 1.4% (la). Likewise, in the case of iron atom displacements, the BE/C ratios spanned a range of 0.947 to 1.043 with an average BE/C of 1.008 +/- 4.2% (la). These comparisons also fall well within the +/- 20% criterion specified in DG-1053, thus supporting the validation of the current calculations for applicability for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor.

SUBJECT:

Response to Request for Additional Information Indian Point 2 License Amendment Request for Reactor Coolant System Heatup and Cooldown Limitation Curves (TAC No.: MB2419)

References:

1. Consolidated Edison letter (NL-01 -092) to NRC, "Indian Point 2 License Amendment Request for Reactor Coolant System Heatup and Cooldown Limitation Curves and Request for Exemption from the Requirements of 10CFR50.60(a) and Appendix G," dated July 16, 2001 By letter dated July 16, 2001 (Ref. 1), Consolidated Edison (the former licensee) submitted an application for an amendment to the Technical Specifications (TS) for Indian Point Unit No. 2 (IP2). The proposed amendment requested revised Reactor Coolant System Heatup and Cooldown Limitation Curves, as well as new Overpressure Protection System (OPS) limits. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff reviewed this submittal, determined that additional information was required to complete its review, and requested that additional information in telephone conferences on November 14, 2001 and December 18, 2001. As a result of the telephone conferences, Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc. (ENO - the current licensee) initiated a revision to the original Ref. 1 Attachment 4, "WCAP-15629, Indian Point Unit 2 Heatup and Cooldown Limit Curves for Normal Operation and PTLR Support Documentation."

Revision 1 to WCAP-15629 (December 2001) is included as Enclosure 1 of this submittal.

In addition, excerpts from an existing IP2 operating procedure for plant heatup are being submitted as an example to demonstrate how IP2 applies instrument uncertainty to the values in the TS curves. Although the 10CFR50, Appendix G pressure/temperature limitations included in the Indian Point 2 Technical Specifications do not include explicit margins to account for instrument uncertainties, the limits in the operating procedures are decreased to account for pressure and temperature uncertainties, as well as system hydraulic losses and elevation corrections. Attachment 1 of this submittal contains excerpts from an IP2 operating procedure.

This letter contains no new commitments.

SUMMARY

This report provides the methodology and results of the generation of heatup and cooldown pressure temperature limit curves for normal operation of the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel. In addition, Pressure Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) support information, such as Fluence, PTS, EOL USE and Withdrawal Schedule, are documented herein under the Appendices. The PT curves were generated based on the latest available reactor vessel information and updated fluences (Appendix B). The new Indian Point Unit 2 heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves were generated using ASME Code Case N-640t 33 (which allows the use of the K1, methodology) and the axial flaw methodology of the 1995 ASME Code,Section XI through the 1996 Addenda.

It should be noted that Indian Point was limited at the 1/4T location by the intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld and at the 3/4T location by the intermediate shell plate B-2002-3. The pressure temperature (PT) limit curves presented in Section 5 are those developed using the axial flaw methodology with the most limiting axial flaw adjusted reference temperatures (ARTs). Theses PT curves bound the PT curves that used the ASME Code Case N-588t 41 (Circ. Flaw Methodology) with the most limiting Circ Flaw ARTs. The circ. flaw PT curves are presented in Appendix G herein.

1 INTRODUCTION Heatup and cooldown lnimt curves are calculated using the adjusted RTNDT (reference mil-ductility temperature) corresponding to the limiting beitline region material of the reactor vessel. The adjusted RTNDT of the limiting material in the core region of the reactor vessel is determined by using the unirradiated reactor vessel material fracture toughness properties, estimating the radiation-induced ARTNDT, and adding a margin. The unirradiated RThryT is designated as the higher of either the drop weight nil ductility transition temperature (NDTT) or the temperature at which the material exhibits at least 50 ft-lb of impact energy and 35-mil lateral expansion (normal to the major working direction) minus 601F.

RTNDT increases as the material is exposed to fast-neutron radiation. Therefore, to find the most limiting RTNDT at any time period in the reactor's life, ARTNDT due to the radiation exposure associated with that time period must be added to the unirradiated RTNDT (IRTNDT). The extent of the shift in RTNDT is enhanced by certain chemical elements (such as copper and nickel) present in reactor vessel steels. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has published a method for predicting radiation embrittlement in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, "Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials.t 51 Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, is used for the calculation of Adjusted Reference Temperature (ART) values (IRTNDT + ARTNDT + margins for uncertainties) at the 1/4T and 3/4T locations, where T is the thickness of the vessel at the beltline region measured from the clad/base metal interface.

The heatup and cooldown curves documented in this report were generated using the most limiting ART values and the NRC approved methodology documented in WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2[6],

"Methodology Used to Develop Cold Overpressure Mitigating System Setpoints and RCS Heatup and Cooldown Limit Curves" with exception of the following: 1) The fluence values used in this report are calculated fluence values, not the best estimate fluence values (See Appendix B). 2) The Kir critical stress intensities are used in place of the KIa critical stress intensities. This methodology is taken from approved ASME Code Case N-640P3]. 3) The 1996 Version of Appendix G to Section XIf will be used rather than the 1989 version. 4) PT Curves were generated with the most limiting circumferential weld ART value in conjunction with Code Case N-588143. The curves, which are included in Appendix (4 are bounded by the curves using the standard "axial" flaw methodology from ASME Code 1996 App. G with the ART from the limiting plate material B-2002-3.

FRACTURE TOUGHNESS PROPERTIES The fracture-toughness properties of the ferritic materials in the reactor coolant pressure boundary are determined in accordance with the NRC Standard Review Plan3S]. The beltline material properties of the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel is presented in Table 1.

Best estimate copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) weight percent values used to calculate chemistry factors (CF) in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, are provided in Table 1. Additionally, surveillance capsule data is available for four capsules (Capsules V, Z, Y and T) already removed from the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel. This surveillance capsule data was also used to calculate CF values per Position 2.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 in Table 4. These CF values are summarized in Table 5. It should be noted that in addition to Indian Point Unit 2, surveillance weld data from Indian Point Unit 3 and H.B.

Robinson Unit 2 was used in the determination of CF. In addition, all the surveillance data has been determined to be credible, with exception to surveillance plate B-2002-2.

The Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 methodology used to develop the heatup and cooldown curves documented in this report is the same as that documented in WCAP-14040, Revision 2.

Notes:

(a) The Initial RTDrT values are measured values, with exception to the weld materials.

(b) The weld material in the Indian Point Unit 2 surveillance program was made of the same wire and flux as the reactor vessel intermediate shell longitudinal weld seams (Wire Heat No. W5214 RACO3 + Ni200, Flux Type Linde 1092, Flux Lot No. 3600). The lower shell longitudinal weld seam also had the same heat and flux type but different flux lot. Indian Pt. Unit 3 and H.B. Robinson Unit 2 also contain surveillance material of this heat.

(c) The intermediate to lower shell circ. weld material was made of Wire Heat No. 34B009 RACO3 + Ni200, Flux Type Linde 1092, Flux Lot No. 3708).

(d) The weld best estimate copper and nickel weight percents were obtained from CE Reports NPSD-1039, Rev. 2[151 and/or NPSD-1 119, Rev. 1[16]. The values from the CE Report NPSD-1119, Rev. 2 for the Indian Point 2 vessel axial and circ.

welds matches that in the NRC database RVID2. The values were rounded to two decimal points.

(e) Copper and Nickel Values were obtained from WCAP-12796, which in turn used Southwest Research Report 17-2108 (Capsule V Analysis). This report calculated a best estimate copper/Nickel weight percent excluding values that appeared to be outliers. If all data was considered, then the best estimate would match RVID2. The data above for the intermediate shell plates are conservative with exception to plate B-2002-1. The chemistry for plate B-2002-1 produces a Table chemistry factor of 156.2"F as compared to the chemistry factor calculated using credible surveillance data (114*F, See Tables 4 & 5). Thus, this non-conservative difference versus RVID2 is negligible. Values from WCAP-12796 will be used herein. RVID2 Values are in Parenthesis.

WCAP-15629

4 The chemistry factors were calculated using Regulatory Guide 1.99 Revision 2, Positions 1.1 and 2.1.

Position 1.1 uses the Tables from the Reg. Guide along with the best estimate copper and nickel weight percents. Position 2.1 uses the surveillance capsule data from all capsules withdrawn to date, including those capsules from Indian Point Unit 3 and H.B. Robinson Unit 2. The fluence values used to determine the CFs in Table 4 are the calculated fluence values at the surveillance capsule locations. Hence, the calculated fluence values were used for all cases.

The measured ARTNDT values for the weld data were adjusted for temperature difference between differing plants and for chemistry using the ratio procedure given in Position 2.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. See Table 2 for the Tcold operating temperatures at Indian Point Units 2 and 3 and H.B.

Thus, for conservatism (i.e. larger delta versus IP2) 547 0F will be assumed.

5 All calculated fluence values (capsule and projections) for Indian Point Unit 2 were updated and documented in Appendix B. These fluences were calculated using the ENDF/B-VI scattering cross section data set. In addition, capsule fluences from Indian Point Unit 3 and H.B. Robinson Unit 2 are included since they share the same surveillance weld material and can be used in the calculation of chemistry factor. The Indian Point Unit 3 fluences are taken from Letter INT-00-21 I[', and the H.B.

Robinson fluences were taken from WCAP-14044['0*. The Indian Point Unit 3 fluences are calculated fluences using ENDF/B-VI cross-sections. The best available fluence data for H.B. Robinson are the fluences from WCAP-14044. Calculated fluences exist in WCAP-14044, however they were determined using ENDF/B-IV & V cross-sections and would increase if ENDF/B-VI cross-sections were used. Thus, for conservatism the calculated fluences were increased 15% to account for going to ENDF/B-VI and used herein for the calculation of chemistry factor. It should be noted that the measured fluences would not increase under ENDF/B-VI. Table 3 is a summary of the capsule fluences from Indian Point Unit 2 and 3 and H.B Robinson.

The measured ARTN 1 values from the Indian Point Unit 3 surveillance program were adjusted by adding 12°F to each measured ARTrDT and the H.B. Robinson Unit 2 surveillance program were adjusted by adding 190F to each measured ARTcDT value before applying the ratio procedure. The surveillance weld metal ARTNDT values have been adjusted by a ratio factor of:

Ratio IP2 = 230.2 + 215.8 = 1.07 for the Indian Point Unit 2 data.

Ratio IP3 = 230.2 + 206.2 = 1.12 for the Indian Point Unit 3 data.

Ratio -BR2 = 230.2 + 210.7 = 1.09 for the H.B. Robinson Unit 2 data.

CRITERIA FOR ALLOWABLE PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE RELATIONSHIPS 3.1 Overall Approach The ASME approach for calculating the allowable limit curves for various heatup and cooldown rates specifies that the total stress intensity factor, KI, for the combined thermal and pressure stresses at any time during heatup or cooldown cannot be greater than the reference stress intensity factor, K1c, for the metal temperature at that time. Ki, is obtained from the reference fracture toughness curve, defined in Code Case N-640, "Alternative Reference Fracture Toughness for Development of PT Limit Curves for Section XI"1'3 & 71 of the ASME Appendix G to Section XI. The Ki. curve is given by the following equation:

Ki,= 33.2 + 20.734 *e [°0 2(T-RTr)]

(1)

where, Ki

For bending stress, the corresponding K, for the postulated defect is:

  • Maximum Stress, where Mb is two-thirds of Mm The maximum K, produced by radial thermal gradient for the postulated inside surface defect of G-2120 is Kit = 0.953x10 3 x CR x t2-, where CR is the cooldown rate in OF/hr., or for a postulated outside surface defect, K1t = 0.753x10 3 x HU x t2-, where HU is the heatup rate in mF/hr.

The through-wall temperature difference associated with the maximum thermal K, can be determined from Fig. G-2214-1. The temperature at any radial distance from the vessel surface can be determined from Fig.

G-2214-2 for the maximum thermal K1.

The maximum thermal K, relationship and the temperature relationship in Fig. G-2214-1 are applicable only for the conditions given in G-2214.3(a)(1) and (2).

(5) where the coefficients Co, CI, C2 and C3 are determined from the thermal stress distribution at any specified time during the heatup or cooldown using the form:

ex(x) = Co + Ci(x / a) + C2(x / a) 2 + C3(xl a)3 (6) and x is a variable that represents the radial distance from the appropriate (i.e., inside or outside) surface to any point on the crack front and a is the maximum crack depth.

Note, that equations 3, 4 and 5 were implemented in the OPERLIM computer code, which is the program used to generate the pressure-temperature (P-T) limit curves. No other changes were made to the OPERLIM computer code with regard to P-T calculation methodology. Therefore, the P-T curve methodology is unchanged from that described in WCAP-14040, "Methodology used to Develop Cold Overpressure Mitigating System Setpoints and RCS Heatup and Cooldwon Limit Curves"'t Section 2.6 (equations 2.6.2-4 and 2.6.3-1) with the exceptions just described above.

At any time during the heatup or cooldown transient, K1, is determined by the metal temperature at the tip of a postulated flaw at the 1/4T and 3/4T location, the appropriate value for RTNDT, and the reference fracture toughness curve. The thermal stresses resulting from the temperature gradients through the vessel wall are calculated and then the corresponding (thermal) stress intensity factors, Kit, for the reference flaw are computed. From Equation 2, the pressure stress intensity factors are obtained and, from these, the allowable pressures are calculated.

For the calculation of the allowable pressure versus coolant temperature during cooldown, the reference flaw of Appendix G to the ASME Code is assumed to exist at the inside of the vessel wall. During cooldown, the controlling location of the flaw is always at the inside of the wall because the thermal gradients produce tensile stresses at the inside, which increase with increasing cooldown rates. Allowable pressure-temperature relations are generated for both steady-state and finite cooldown rate situations. From these relations, composite limit curves are constructed for each cooldown rate of interest.

The use of the composite curve in the cooldown analysis is necessary because control of the cooldown procedure is based on the measurement of reactor coolant temperature, whereas the limiting pressure is actually dependent on the material temperature at the tip of the assumed flaw. During cooldown, the 1/4T vessel location is at a higher temperature than the fluid adjacent to the vessel inner diameter. This condition, of course, is not true for the steady-state situation. It follows that, at any given reactor coolant temperature, the AT (temperature) developed during cooldown results in a higher value of Ki, at the 1/4T location for finite cooldown rates than for steady-state operation. Furthermore, if conditions exist so that the increase in Kic exceeds KI, the calculated allowable pressure during cooldown will be greater than the steady-state value.

WCAP-15629

12 The above procedures are needed because there is no direct control on temperature at the 1/4T location and, therefore, allowable pressures may unknowingly be violated if the rate of cooling is decreased at various intervals along a cooldown ramp. The use of the composite curve eliminates this problem and ensures conservative operation of the system for the entire cooldown period.

Three separate calculations are required to determine the limit curves for finite heatup rates. As is done in the cooldown analysis, allowable pressure-temperature relationships are developed for steady-state conditions as well as finite heatup rate conditions assuming the presence of a 1/4T defect at the inside of the wall. The heatup results in compressive stresses at the inside surface that alleviate the tensile stresses produced by internal pressure. The metal temperature at the crack tip lags the coolant temperature; therefore, the Ki. for the 1/4T crack during heatup is lower than the K10 for the 1/4T crack during steady state conditions at the same coolant temperature. During heatup, especially at the end of the transient, conditions may exist so that the effects of compressive thermal stresses and lower K10 values do not offset each other, and the pressure-temperature curve based on steady-state conditions no longer represents a lower bound of all similar curves for finite heatup rates when the 1/4T flaw is considered. Therefore, both cases have to be analyzed in order to ensure that at any coolant temperature the lower value of the allowable pressure calculated for steady-state and finite heatup rates is obtained.

The second portion of the heatup analysis concerns the calculation of the pressure-temperature limitations for the case in which a 1/4T flaw located at the 1/4T location from the outside surface is assumed. Unlike the situation at the vessel inside surface, the thermal gradients established at the outside surface during heatup produce stresses which are tensile in nature and therefore tend to reinforce any pressure stresses present. These thermal stresses are dependent on both the rate of heatup and the time (or coolant temperature) along the heatup ramp. Since the thermal stresses at the outside are tensile and increase with increasing heatup rates, each heatup rate must be analyzed on an individual basis.

Following the generation of pressure-temperature curves for both the steady-state and finite heatup rate situations, the final limit curves are produced by constructing a composite curve based on a point-by-point comparison of the steady-state and finite heatup rate data. At any given temperature, the allowable pressure is taken to be the lesser of the three values taken from the curves under consideration. The use of the composite curve is necessary to set conservative heatup limitations because it is possible for conditions to exist wherein, over the course of the heatup ramp, the controlling condition switches from the inside to the outside, and the pressure limit must at all times be based on analysis of the most critical criterion.

3.3 Closure Head/Vessel Flange Requirements 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix Gd133 addresses the metal temperature of the closure head flange and vessel flange regions. This rule states that the metal temperature of the closure flange regions must exceed the material unirradiated RTNDT by at least 120'F for normal operation when the pressure exceeds 20 percent of the preservice hydrostatic test pressure (3106 psi), which is 621 psig for Indian Point Unit 2. The limiting unirradiated RTNDT of 60°F occurs in both the closure head and vessel flanges of the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel, so the minimum allowable temperature of this region is 180'F at pressures greater than 621 psig. This limit is shown in Figures 5-1 and 5-2 wherever applicable.

CALCULATION OF ADJUSTED REFERENCE TEMPERATURE From Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, the adjusted reference temperature (ART) for each material in the beltline region is given by the following expression:

ART = Initial RTNDT + ARTNDT + Margin (7)

Initial RTNDT is the reference temperature for the unirradiated material as defined in paragraph NB-2331 of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Codei1 4]. If measured values of initial RTNDT for the material in question are not available, generic mean values for that class of material may be used if there are sufficient test results to establish a mean and standard deviation for the class.

ARTNT is the mean value of the adjustment in reference temperature caused by irradiation and should be calculated as follows:

ARTNDT = CF

  • f(O.2 8 - 0.10 log )

(8)

To calculate ARTNDT at any depth (e.g., at 1/4T or 3/4T), the following formula must first be used to attenuate the fluence at the specific depth.

fdpth) = fsrac* e (-0.24x)

(9) where x inches (vessel beltline thickness is 8.625 inches) is the depth into the vessel wall measured from the vessel clad/base metal interface. The resultant fluence is then placed in Equation 8 to calculate the ARTNDT at the specific depth.

The Westinghouse Radiation Engineering and Analysis Group evaluated the vessel fluence projections in Appendix B and are also presented in a condensed version in Table 6 of this report. The evaluation used the ENDF/B-VI scattering cross-section data set. This is consistent with methods presented in WCAP 14040-NP-A, "Methodology Used to Develop Cold Overpressure Mitigating System Setpoints and RCS Heatup and Cooldown Limit Curves"' 21. Table 6 contains the calculated vessel surface fluences values at various azimuthal locations. Tables 7 and 8 contain the 1/4T and 3/4T calculated fluences and fluence factors, per the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, used to calculate the ART values for all beltline materials in the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel.

Contained in Table 11 is a summary of the limiting ARTs to be used in the generation of the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel heatup and cooldown curves. Since there are different limiting materials and one of which is a circumferential weld, then two sets of curves will be generated. One set will use the methodology from ASME Code Case N-588 with the limiting circ weld ARTs, while the other will use the methodology from the 1996 ASME Code Section XI, Appendix G with the limiting plate ARTs. The most limiting curves will be presented in Section 5, while the other set will be documented in Appendix G.

HEATUP AND COOLDOWN PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE LIMIT CURVES Pressure-temperature limit curves for normal heatup and cooldown of the primary reactor coolant system have been calculated for the pressure and temperature in the reactor vessel beltline region using the methods discussed in Sections 3.0 and 4.0 of this report. This approved methodology is also presented in WCAP-14040-NP-A, Revision 2 with exception to those items discussed in Section 1 of this report.

Figure 1 presents the limiting heatup curves without margins for possible instrumentation errors using heatup rates of 60 and 100°F/hr applicable for the first 25 EFPY. This curve was generated using the1996 ASME Code Section XI, Appendix G with the limiting plate ARTs. It bounds the heatup curves (found in Appendix G) generated using ASME Code Case N-588 with the limiting circ weld ARTs. Figure 2 presents the limiting cooldown curves without margins for possible instrumentation errors using cooldown rates of 0, 20, 40, 60 and 100'F/hr applicable for 25 EFPY. Again, this curve was generated using the 1996 ASME Code Section XI, Appendix G with the limiting plate ARTs. It bounds the cooldown curves (found in Appendix G) generated using ASME Code Case N-588 with the limiting circ weld ARTs.

Allowable combination of temperature and pressure for specific temperature change rates are below and to the right of the limit lines shown in Figures 1 and 2. This is in addition to other criteria which must be met before the reactor is made critical, as discussed below in the following paragraphs.

The reactor must not be made critical until pressure-temperature combinations are to the right of the criticality limit line shown in Figure 1. The straight-line portion of the criticality limit is at the minimum permissible temperature for the 2485 psig inservice hydrostatic test as required by Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50. The governing equation for the hydrostatic test is defined in Code Case N-64013 1 (approved in February 1999) as follows:

1.5 K* < K1c

where, Kim is the stress intensity factor covered by membrane (pressure) stress, Kiv = 33.2 + 20.734 e[oO2CTRTr)],

T is the minimum permissible metal temperature, and RTNDT is the metal reference nil-ductility temperature.

The criticality limit curve specifies pressure-temperature limits for core operation to provide additional margin during actual power production as specified in Reference 13. The pressure-temperature limits for core operation (except for low power physics tests) are that the reactor vessel must be at a temperature equal to or higher than the minimum temperature required for the inservice hydrostatic test, and at least 40'F higher than the minimum permissible temperature in the corresponding pressure-temperature curve for heatup and cooldown calculated as described in Section 3.0 of this report. For the heatup and cooldown curves without margins for instrumentation errors, the minimum temperature for the in service hydrostatic leak tests for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel at 25 EFPY is 255 OF. The vertical line drawn from these points on the pressure-temperature curve, intersecting a curve 40°F higher than the pressure temperature limit curve, constitutes the limit for core operation for the reactor vessel.

WCAP-15629

20 Figures 1 and 2 define all of the above limits for ensuring prevention of nonductile failure for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel. The data points used for the heatup and cooldown pressure-temperature limit curves shown in Figures 1 and 2 are presented in Tables 12 and 13. By comparison to the curves and data points in Appendix (Q it can be seen that the curves in Figures 1 and 2 bound the curves using code case N 588 with a slightly higher 1/4T ART.

A-O APPENDIX A PRESSURIZED THERMAL SHOCK (PTS) RESULTS WCAP-15629

A-1 PTS Calculations:

The PTS Rule requires that for each pressurized water nuclear power reactor for which an operating license has been issued, the licensee shall have projected values of RTPTS, accepted by the NRC, for each reactor vessel beltline material for the EOL fluence of the material. This assessment must specify the basis for the projected value of RTpTs for each vessel beltline material, including the assumptions regarding core loading patterns, and must specify the copper and nickel contents and the fluence value used in the calculation. This assessment must be updated whenever there is a significant change in projected values of RTPTS, or upon request for a change in the expiration date for operation of the facility. (Changes to RTpTs values are considered significant if either the previous value or the current value, or both values, exceed the screening criterion prior to the expiration of the operating license, including any renewed term, if applicable, for the plant.

To verify that RTrDT, for each vessel beltline material is a bounding value for the specific reactor vessel, licensees shall consider plant-specific information that could affect the level of embrittlement. This information includes but is not limited to the reactor vessel operating temperature and any related surveillance program results. (Surveillance program results mean any data that demonstrates the embrittlement trends for the limiting beltline material, including but not limited to data from test reactors or from surveillance programs at other plants with or without surveillance program integrated per 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix H.)

Calculations:

Table A-1 contains the results of the calculations for each of the beltline region materials in the Indian Point Unit 2 Reactor Vessel. Per ConEd, the actual EOL is less than 32 EFPY, however for conservatism EOL will be assumed to be 32 EFPY WCAP-15629

B-O APPENDIX B CALCULATED FLUENCE DATA WCAP-15629

B-1 Neutron Fluence Calculations Discrete ordinates transport calculations were performed on a fuel cycle specific basis to determine the neutron environment within the reactor geometry of Indian Point Unit 2. The specific calculational methods applied are consistent with those described in WCAP-15557, "Qualification of the Westinghouse Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence Evaluation Methodology"'1 ] and in WCAP-14040-NP-A, "Methodology Used to Develop Cold Overpressure Mitigating System Setpoints and RCS Heatup and Cooldown Limit Curves,"

January 1996.[2]

In the application of this methodology to the fast neutron exposure evaluations for the Indian Point Unit 2 surveillance capsules and reactor vessel, plant specific forward transport calculations were carried out using the following three-dimensional flux synthesis technique:

  • (r,0,z) = [4(r,0)] * [ý(rz)]/[ý(r)]

where cb(rO,z) is the synthesized three-dimensional neutron flux distribution, 4(rO) is the transport solution in r,9 geometry, ý(rz) is the two-dimensional solution for a cylindrical reactor model using the actual axial core power distribution, and ý(r) is the one-dimensional solution for a cylindrical reactor model using the same source per unit height as that used in the rO two-dimensional calculation.

For this analysis, all of the transport calculations were carried out using the DORT discrete ordinates code Version 3. P] and the BUGLE-96 cross-section library[41. The BUGLE-96 library provides a 67 group coupled neutron-gamma ray cross-section data set produced specifically for light water reactor application.

In these analyses, anisotropic scattering was treated with a P5 legendre expansion and the angular discretization was modeled with an S16 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.

Results of the discrete ordinates calculations performed for Indian Point Unit 2 are provided in Tables 1 through 3. In Table 1, the calculated neutron exposures for the four surveillance capsules withdrawn to date are given in terms of both fast neutron (E > 1.0 MeV) fluence and iron atom displacements (dpa). The maximum neutron exposure of the pressure vessel at the clad/base metal interface is provided for several azimuthal angles in Table 2. Again, calculated exposure data are listed for both fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa. Calculated lead factors associated with each of the Indian Point Unit 2 surveillance capsules are listed in Table 3.

Following the completion of the plant specific transport analyses, the calculated results were compared with available measurements in order to demonstrate that the differences between calculations and measurements support the 20% (lo) uncertainty required by Draft Regulatory Guide DG-1053, "Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence".J5 ] Two levels of comparison of calculation with measurement were made to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of DG-1053. In the first instance, ratios of measured and calculated sensor reaction rates (M/C) were compared for all fast neutron sensors contained in the surveillance capsules withdrawn to date. In the second case, comparisons of calculated and least squares adjusted best estimate values of neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa were examined.

WCAP-15629

B-2 The M/C comparisons of individual sensor reaction rates showed consistent behavior for all reactions at all capsule locations within the constraint of an allowable 20% (1a) uncertainty in the final calculated results.

The overall average M/C ratio for the entire 13 sample data set was 1.07 with an associated standard deviation of 9.2%. The observed M/C ratios for twelve of the 13 samples ranged from 0.87 to 1.16 with the remaining sample [ 63Cu(n,a)6°Co reaction] exhibiting an M/C ratio of 1.22. This data set of M/C ratios from the Indian Point Unit 2 surveillance capsules indicates that the +/- 20% acceptance criterion specified in DG-105331' has been met by the current neutron transport calculations.

The corresponding best estimate to calculation (BE/C) comparisons for neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) spanned a range of 0.948 to 1.056 with an average BE/C ratio of 1.017 +/- 1.4% (la). Likewise, in the case of iron atom displacements, the BE/C ratios spanned a range of 0.947 to 1.043 with an average BE/C of 1.008 +/- 4.2% (la). These comparisons also fall well within the +/- 20% criterion specified in DG-1053, thus supporting the validation of the current calculations for applicability for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor.

E-1 Withdrawal Schedule To Be Provided in PTLR Only by Indian Point Unit 2 WCAP-15629

F-0 APPENDIX F ENABLE TEMPERATURE CALCULATIONS AND RESULTS WCAP-15629

F-1 Enable Temperature Calculation:

ASME Section XI, Appendix G requires the low temperature overpressure (LTOP or COMS) system to be in operation at coolant temperatures less than 200'F or at coolant temperatures less than a temperature corresponding to a reactor vessel metal temperature less than RTNDT + 5 0°F, whichever is greater. RTNDT is the highest adjusted reference temperature (ART) for the limiting beltline material at a distance one fourth of the vessel section thickness from the vessel inside surface (ie. clad/base metal interface), as determined by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2.

32 EFPY The highest calculated 1/4T ART for the Indian Point Unit 2 reactor vessel beltline region at 25 EFPY is 2000F.

From the OPERLIM computer code output for the Indian Point Unit 2 25 EFPY P-T limit curves without margins (Configuration # 14146 & 22915) the maximum ATme* is:

Cooldown Rate (Steady-State Cooldown):

max (ATmeti) at 1/4T = 0°F Heatup Rate of 100°F/Hr:

max (ATmw) at 1/4T = 30.084°F Enable Temperature (ENBT) =

RTNDT + 50 + max (ATmebt), OF

= (200 + 50 + 30.084) OF

= 280.0840F The minimum required enable temperature for the Indian Point Unit 2 Reactor Vessel is 280OF at 25 EFPY of operation.
