{{#Wiki_filter:. METHODS FOR PREDICTING THE THERMAL EFFECTS OF OCONEE NUCLEAR STATION ON LAKE KE0 WEE Predictions of the thermal effects of Oconee Nuclear Station on Lake Keowee were accomplished by using two one-dimensional "models" of the lake's behavior. The vertical temperature structure, (tempe rature profile or depth vs temperature curve) was first simulated to predict monthly average condenser inlet and outlet cooling water temperatures and the monthly average lake surface temperatures. Secondly. monthly average surface temperatures as a function of area f rom the Oconee discharge were computed. Af ter the temperatures expected in Lake Keowee were calculated, estimates of the temperature of water discharged to Lake Hartwell were made. CONDENSER COOLING WATER AND KE0 WEE LAKE AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURES The vertical temperatures (temperature vs depth) in Lake Keowee were found by making adjustments to historical temperature profiles to account for the water which is pumped through Oconee and the heat that the water carries into the lake. An energy balance maintains a check on the validity of assumptions as to the shape of the temperature profiles. Since Lake Keowee has only been filled since early 1971, the historical record of its temperature structure is short. However, Duke Power Company has been measuring temperatures in Lake Hartwell since 1965 Hartwell is immediately downstream of Lake Keowee, and it is expected that the stratification pattern in the two lakes will be similar since they will experience essentially the same meteorology. A comparison of the profiles measured in both lakes during 1971 showed comparable temperatures in the hypolimnions and epflimnions of both lakes, and showed a deeper thermocline in Hartwell than in Keowee. Since less than a year of data was available f rom Keowee and several years of data from Hartwell were on hand, the Hartwell averaged profiles were used as the basis of the vertical temperature studies. The discrepancy in thermocline depths will simply mean that the hypolimnetic resources of Lake Keowee are greater than t':3e computations have taken credit for. In these computations, the time steps were one month long and a year long period was calculated. The calculat ions begin in a winter month when the lake would be isothermal. The computations for each month proceeded according to the following steps:
- 1. Draw the vertical profile for the beginning of the month. Call it Profile 2.
- 2. Compute the amount of heat in the lake from Profile 1. The total amount of heat is the integral of the product of the tempera ture and volume at each depth.
- 3. Adj ust the lake's vertical profile to account for withdrawals by Oconee and Keowee Hydro, inflows from Oconee, Jocassee and the rest of the watershed. (The lake is treated as a " deck of cards," each card representing a horizontal layer of water with a given temperature f 791216003V
* /
. 2 and volume. Then infinws and outflows are merely cards inserted into or removed from Lake Keowee at the proper temperature level during the selected time per iod.) This is Profile 2.
4 Construct the historical (from Lake Hartwell) vertical profile corres-ponding to the end of the month, accounting for Lake Keowee level changes. Call it Profile 3. 5 Add the incremental warming between Profiles 1 and 2 to Profile 3 to form Profile 4.
- 6. Compute the amount of heat the lake contains within the new Profile 4.
7 Compute the amount of heat transferred across the surface of the lake due to meteorological conditions, using the average of the surface temperatures at the first and the last of the month as the monthly ave ra ge .
- 8. Algebraically sum the amount of heat in the lake at the first of the month, the change due to advection, the change due to surface heat transfer and the amount added by Oconee.
9 Compare the sum found in 8 with the heat shown by Profile 4. If they are not nearly the same, make a trial adjustment of the profile, especially near the surface since the epillmnion is most subject to changes. After the profile is acjus:ed steps 6-8 will be repeated. Several repetitions of this process might be necessary to obtain an energy balance.
- 10. The final profile thus constructed is carried forward as the "first-of-the month" profile for the next month.
- 11. Computations as outlined above are continued to complete the year, using appropriate data for each month.
From these constructed monthly average temperature profiles, condenser cooling water inlet temperatures may be found and discharge temperatures are found by adding the appropriate condenser cooling water temperature rise to the inlet temperature. The results of these computations are tabulated on Table 1. Also shown on Table I are monthly average equilibrium temperatures and ambient temperatures, the expected fluctua ions of discharge, equilibrium and ambient temperatures. Discharge temperat w e fluctuations occur solely because of inlet temperature fluctuations sii.ce the station is considered at 100% load and these are based on fluctuations observed at the similar hypolimnetic intake at Marshall Steam Station on Lake Norman. Equilibrium fluctuations are taken from computations using daily meteorology and ambient temperature fluctuations are based on observations in Lake Norman out of the influence of Marshall. SURFACE TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION in order to predict the distribution of temperatures on the surface of Lake Keowee, it was necessary to account for the rocesses of heat transfer from the surface to the atmosphere and dilution with water from the upper layer; of the lake. While the state-of-the-art for heat transfer calculations is , well advanced, the same is not true of mixing (dilution) calculations.
3 Where solutions have been proposed to the problem, they have failed to account for irregular geometry of shoreline and bottom (striking features of Lake Keowee) and the transition from Jet to plume behavior. Since it was expected that mixing will have a significant role in the surface tem-perature distribution in the lake, its influence could not be ignored. Fortunately, a " physical rnodel" was available. The Marshall Steam Station on Lake Norman In North Carolina is analogous to Oconee on Lake Keowee In many qualitative ways. Botn lakes have irregular shorellnes, but have long stretches of water oriented in the direction of prevailing winds. Both lakes are about 4000 feet wide where the cooling water discharges of their respective steam plants are located. Both are large and deep enough to have a significant hypolimnetic volume, and these hypolimnions are utilized for condenser cooling water. The hydroelectric stations on both lakes with-draw water f rom the top 35' of the lake. Since Asbury and Frigol had been able to use information from several steam stations on several lakes, ar.d have found strong similarltles in the rates of temperature loss, it was reasonable to use the results of tests on Lake Norman to predict temperature distributions on Lake Keowee. Asbury and Frigo found that a plot of the excess ternperature ratio (T-N)/(To-N) with respect to the surface area divided by the flow rate (A/q) normalized the data so that it could be applied to a plant of different capacity. T is any temperature To Is the discharge temperature N is the normal or ambient temperature q is the condenser cooling water flow rate and A is the area bounded by the T isotherm There is also a theoretical basis for this parameterization and, in fact, if the excess temperature ratio is plotted on a logarithmic scale and A/Q on a linear scale, and if mixing is negligible, a straight line should result, originating where the temperature ratto is I and A/q is zero, and having a negative slope. A regression analysis was made on the results rj seven surveys run on Lake Norman in the winter season. A good fit was obtained for a straight line with its intercept at a temperature ratto af 2.45 and a slope corresponding to wintertime heat exchange rates ( 100B/F /d*F). While the curve (Fig 1) is obviously an oversim'pilfication, it provides a fit nearly as good as a second order curve, and its form can be explained qualitatively. The curve Indicates that most of the mixing occurs near the discharge into the lake, and that the process of heat transfer predominates at some distance from the discharge. A curve, two standard deviations above the mean curve, has also been plotted in Figure 1 (The assumption of the normal distribution of areas is probably a reasonabie one since most meteorological variables are normally l distributed.) To understand the significance of this curve it is necessary I to look at an example. Suppose that at a flow of 3100 cfs the initial excess temperature is 26*F. The expected area within the 3*F isotherm is found. 3/26 = .12 " A/q = 1.65 and A = 5100 acres. But If the upper curve is used, A/q = 2.35 and A = 7300 acres. Thus, under the assumed temperature excess and flow, the 3* Isotherm will encompass 5100 acres on the average. It will be less than 7300 acres 97P/o of the time. l 1"A Phenomenological Relationship For Predicting The Surface Areas of Thermal Plumes in Lakes," J G Asbury and A A Frigo, Center for Environmental Studies, Argonne National Laboratory, April 1971.
4 Figure 2 depicts a similar curve for fall conditions. Table 2 shows areas within variour isotherms for each month of the year and also the percentage of the total surface area. Drawings E0-1100-7 through EO-1100-14 show the estimated positions of the isotherms in the lake for largest summer and winter a reas . Drawings E0-Il00-15 through EO-1100-18 show expected temperature p rofi les 3000' from Oconee's discharge and on the lake side of the skimmer wall. The lower parts of the profiles are taken from the computations described in the previous section; the surface temperatures were found by the methods outlined in this section; and the depth of the plume was estimated from observations near Marshall . TEMPERATURE OF DISCHARGES INTO LAKE HARTWELL Near the discharge of a steam plant, very little tenperature loss is due to heat transfer. vertical temperature profiles measured adjacent to a discharge show a warm shallow layer of water at the surface. Profiles farther away show that the warm layer has become cooler, but that it is also deeper, if vertical mixing predominates over horizontal mixing and temperatures are averaged over a depth greater than the depth of mixing, then the average temperatures should be nearly the same for either profile and for any profile near enough to the plant so that heat transfer can be ignored. When profiles measured around Marshall were averaged over the top 30' it was found that their averages for any given day were nearly the same. It is felt that if one profile from each of the seven surveys is selected and all the excess temperatures at a given depth are averaged, then the resulting average profile will be a close approximation to the average profile which will occur in Lake Keowee. This profile can be averaged over the proper depth to determine the average excess temperature discharged to Lake Hartwell . Since very little dilution water will be available in the upper end of Lake Hartwell when the Keowee Hydro Station is in operation, the cooling of this water can be calculated f nom heat transfer considerations . The surface areas which will be warmed 3* F or more in Lake Hartwell are shown on Table 3 for all months of the year. Drawings E0-Il00-19 through E0-II00-22 show the positions of the isotherms enclosing maximum areas. In the very unlikely event of a reactor shutdown following a loss of electrical power, the initial temperature rise will be approximately 64*F with flow of 94 cfs. This flow will be diluted by a leakage of approximately 30 cfs through Keowee. The cooling of this water can be calculated from heat transfer considerations, since very little dilution water will be available in the upper end of Lake Hartwell. These calculations show that less than 300 acres (0.5%) of Lake Hartwell will be required for cooling under normal ar.d extreme meteorology. DATA SOURCES AND MAJOR ASSUMPTIONS Some of the major assumptions and data sources are listed below. 1 Meteorological data were taken from the observations of the National Weather Service at Greenville-Spartanburg, except solar radiation values were from Atlanta data since Atlanta is the nearest NWS station recording solar radiation. l l l

- 2. Streanflow values were taken from USGS publications.
- 3. Lake levels assumed were those predicted by Duke Power Company.
- 4. Vertical temperature patterns in Lake Keowee were assumed to be similar to those of Lake Hartwell.
5 Data regarding the mixisg of a heated discharge into Lake Norman is assumed applicable to Lake Keowee. This is conservative in that the discharge speed from Oconee is greater than that from Marshall and Oconee's discharge is less restricted by the lake's geometry than Marshall's. Thus, more rapid mixing is expected in Lake Keowee.
- 6. Oconee's discharge temperatures are calculated by assuming 100% load.
7 The temperature of water flowing into Lake Keowee was based on measurement of Keowee River temperatures before the dam was built and estimates of the temperatures which will exist in Lake Jocassee. A sensitivity analysis showed that an -rror of 5*F will only change the surface temperature 1/2*F.
- 8. Computations of cooling areas required in Lake Hartwell were made with the assumption of no mixing, and the further assumption of a steady state flow rate corresponding to the monthly" average flow.
In addition, for calculations involving " extreme conditions," the year of warmest meteorology in twenty years (1953) was coupled with the year of lowest drawdown (1956) and its attendant hydrology. The year of lowest calculated drawdown in the twenty-year period was also the year during which the flows of the Savannah River at Augusta, Georgia were the lowest recorded in the entire period of record (1884 to date) . This fact, and the fact that meteorology from another ',2ar was used makes probability of the simultaneous occurrence of these conditions considerably less than 1 in 20. Further, it was assumed that no water below elevation 730' was available to Oconee, when in fact most of the water between elevation 710' and 730' will be available. (This assumption was not made in the computations for normal cond i t ion s .) Duke feels that the results of these studies further emphasize the minimal effects which Oconee will have on Lakes Keowee and Hartwell. It should be noted that the number of cooling water pumps running (and consequently, the temperature rise) at any time is partially dependent on the water temperatures entering the condenser. Thus, the temperature rise during any month may vary from year to year. An example may be seen in Table 1. The discharge temperature for a normal January is higher than that for January in the extreme year. This occurs because the normal temperature rise in January is 26*F, but during the extreme year it is only 20*F since inlet temperatures never get low enough for two pump operation. Many of the apparent discrepancies in Table I may be explained in this manner.

/ OCONEE COOLING WATER USES Oconee's circulating pumps supply water to the steam turbine condensers and also
, supply service water to miscellaneous uses such as heat exchangers. Duties performed by the service water include air conditioning, turbine oil cooling, condensate cooling, recirculating cooling water cooling and component cooling for the primary side of the plant. Service water is pumped from the condenser cooling water intake pipes before reaching the condenser, passed throteh heat e>. changers and then enters the condenser cooling water discharge piping downstream of the condenser.
Service water requi rements vary, depending on many factors, if no service water were used, all water from the circulating pumps would pass through the condensers. Circulating pumps flows and minimum condenser flows (with maximum service water use) are tab,ulated below. Circulating Flow Minimum Condenser Flow Service Water Requirements (cfs/ unit) cfs/ unit) (cfs/un it) 2 pumps 1042 1009 33 3 pumps 1373 1323 50 4 pumps 1577 1510 67 (NOTE : 1000 cfs = 643.6 MGD) Condenser flows will always be in the range between the circulating flow and the minimum flow. The temperature rise across the condenser for full load operation at minimum flow is given below. 2 pumps 25.7'F 3 pumps 19.6*F 4 pumps 17.2*F The service water also experiences a temperature rise. However, th is temperature rise is always lower than the condenser rise, and the effect of the service water is slightly lower the temperature of the condenser water. Thus it is seen that the preceding temperature rises represent the upper limit and that the actual rises experienced will he slightly lower than these shown. The service water systems of the three units at Oconee are interconnected. Therefore, when a unit is off-line, its pumps may be cut off and its service water may be drawn from an operating unit. Minimum circulating water requirements occur when two Oconee units are off-line and the third unit is operating on three pumps.-}}
