Arizona Public Service Company (APS) requested the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approve Relief Request 51, by letternumber 102-06794, dated November 8, 2013 [Agencywide Documents Access andManagement System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML13317A070].

APS proposed analternative to the ASME Code requirements of Section Xl related to axial flawindications identified in a Unit 3 reactor vessel bottom mounted instrument (BMI) nozzle.Specifically, APS proposed a half-nozzle repair and a flaw evaluation as alternatives tothe requirements for flaw removal of IWA-4421 and flaw characterization of IWA-3300.

By email dated November 15, 2013, the NRC staff requested additional information (RAI). The APS responses to the NRC RAI items are provided in this enclosure.

List of Attachments Attachment 1 Thermal Stress during Loss of Secondary Pressure Transient in theLower Head of Palo Verde Reactor VesselAttachment 2 Dominion Engineering, Inc., Calculation No. C-7789-00-2, RevisionNo. 1, Palo Verde Bottom Head Instrumentation Nozzle StressAnalysisI Enclosure APS Response to Response to (RAI) -Relief Request 51NRC RAI-1Section 4.1 of Attachment 2 [of Relief Request 51] reported that the nil-ductility reference temperature (RTNDT) of -60 Degrees Fahrenheit (OF) for the RPV bottom head[RVBH] is from Reference 1 of this Attachment.

Please confirm that this value is fromthe Certified Material Test Report for the RVBH. If not, please justify the use of thisRTNDT value in this application.

APS ResponseThe RVBH is fabricated from two plates with different heat numbers.

The RTNDT value of-60°F is from the Certified Material Test Reports (CMTRs) for the RVBH with anadjustment in accordance with ASME Code,Section III, Article NB-2331(al),

(a2), (a3),as provided in UFSAR Table 5.2-5B, "PVNGS Unit 3 Fracture Toughness Data ReactorVessel (Plates)"

as described below.The CMTRs provide data for both Unit 3 RVBH plate material heat numbers andindicate that the drop weight NDT (TNDT) is -70OF for both heat numbers.

In accordance with ASME Code,Section III, Article NB-2331, the RTNDT is established as the greater ofTNDT and [Tcv -600F], where Tcv is the temperature at which the specified CharpyImpact test requirements of NB-2331(a2) are met. From the CMTRs, the CharpyImpact test requirements are met at -10°F for one heat number and 0°F for the other.Based on the above, the RTNDT was conservatively established as -60°F (0°F -600F) inaccordance with NB-2331(a3).

NRC RAI-2A typical flaw evaluation in accordance with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME Code),Section XI requiresconsideration of emergency and faulted conditions in addition to the normal condition (e.g., Appendix A of the ASME Code, Section Xl). The applied stresses for the flawevaluation in Section 4.4 of Attachment 2 of Relief Request 51 are for the normalconditions only. Please address the flaw evaluation under the emergency and faultedconditions.

APS ResponseEmergency and faulted conditions have been considered as described below, and weredetermined not to be significant to the results of the flaw evaluation.

Emergency Condition The emergency condition is defined as the external piping loads applied to the BMInozzle resulting from a postulated in-core instrumentation tubing leak. These thermalloads are applied to the new J-groove weld and weld pad at the relocated pressureboundary on the outer surface of the lower head. Since these loads would create2 Enclosure APS Response to Response to (RAI) -Relief Request 51relatively minor stress changes at the inner surface of the lower head, they were notconsidered further in the current flaw evaluation of the remnant J-groove weld.Faulted Conditions The combined safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) and branch line pipe break (BLPB)represents one of two faulted conditions.

These external loads are applied to the newJ-groove weld and weld pad at the relocated pressure boundary on the outer surface ofthe lower head. Since these external loads would create relatively minor stresses at theinner surface of the lower head, they were not considered further in the current flawevaluations of the remnant J-groove weld.The second faulted condition is the loss of secondary pressure (LSP) transient described in the Palo Verde Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Table3.9.1-1.

This transient is illustrated by the temperature and pressure time-history plotsprovided in Figure 1 of Attachment 1 to this enclosure.

The evaluation of this transient was performed in the same manner as the steady state(SS) + cooldown (CD) analysis submitted as part of the original submittal of ReliefRequest 51. The faulted condition stresses are added to the residual plus SS pressureand thermal stresses, as tabulated below. The maximum faulted condition, Loss ofSecondary Pressure

stresses, derived in Attachment 1 to this enclosure, occur at about118 seconds into the transient (at the maximum through-wall temperature gradient) when the cold leg temperature is 344 OF and the pressure is less than 300 psia. It istherefore conservative to add the maximum thermal stresses for this transient to the SSpressure stresses.

Therefore, these resultsdemonstrate that both EPFM acceptance criteria are satisfied using a safety factor of1.5 for primary loads and 1.0 for secondary loads.NRC RAI-3Appendix A to Attachment 2 [of Relief Request 51] documented the thermal stressesduring cooldown which were obtained using a 2-dimensional axisymmetric finiteelement model (FEM). The NRC staff needs further clarification regarding the FEMresults to gain confidence in the FEM model:Please confirm that the results shown in Figures A-1 to A-5 and Table A-3 are 1-dimensional, i.e., the results (temperature and stresses) are the same for all pointsat inner diameter (ID), outer diameter (OD), or any surface that is defined by aspecific depth of the RVBH. Demonstrate that the 1-dimensional results are realistic in this application.

4 Enclosure APS Response to Response to (RAI) -Relief Request 51APS ResponseYes, the results shown in Figures A-1 to A-5 and Table A-3 are 1-dimensional eventhough the model is constructed in 2-dimensions.

The RVBH ID is exposed to thereactor coolant cooldown transient analyzed in Attachment 2 of Relief Request 51(cooldown from Tc 5650F at 100°F/hr).

The ID surfaces of the BMI nozzle halves aresubject to a lesser cooldown rate when compared to the RVBH ID surface.

The gapbetween the OD of the BMI nozzle halves and ID of the RVBH bore is filled withstagnant water. This limits heat transfer between the BMI nozzle halves and theRVBH wall. Since the boundary conditions and RVBH are symmetrical, the heattransfer in the RVBH is primarily in the radial direction.

Accordingly, it is reasonable to simplify the thermal analysis as 1-dimensional.

0 Please confirm that the temperature difference-time plot (right figure) in Figure A-2 isa plot of the maximum thermal gradient mentioned in Paragraph A.2 Item 4. If it isnot, explain the significance of this parameter.

Regardless of the confirmation, please identify the location (depth) where this temperature difference-time plot wasobtained and explain the physical meaning of such a unique shape of thetemperature difference-time plot.APS ResponseYes, the temperature difference-time plot (right figure) in Figure A-2 is a plot of themaximum through wall temperature gradient for the RVBH, i.e., the plot oftemperature difference (ID minus OD) of the modeled lower head noted as TEMP_4.The initial status of the entire lower head is assumed to have a uniform temperature of 5650F. During the 100°F/hr cooldown transient, the fluid bulk temperature of thereactor coolant drops to 70°F in 4.8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />. Because the convection heat transfercoefficient at the inner surface of the lower head is much higher than that of theouter surface, the temperature on the inner surface drops faster than the outersurface at the beginning of the transient.

After about 1.3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br />, the absolute valueof the temperature difference reaches its maximum.

After that, the temperature difference between ID and OD of the lower head starts to decrease and eventually approaches zero. After 4.8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br />, there is no further cooling of the inside surfaceand the temperature difference is driven by conduction from the warmer outersurface to the cooler inner surface.

At a time point about 7 hours8.101852e-5 days <br />0.00194 hours <br />1.157407e-5 weeks <br />2.6635e-6 months <br /> after the start ofthe cooldown transient, the lower head reaches a thermal balance at 70°F.NRC RAI-4Section 4.4 of Attachment 2 [of Relief Request 51] states, "Residual plus operating stresses are obtained from Reference

[7]." Demonstrate that the residual stresses usedin the flaw evaluation are consistent with what were approved by the NRC staff in5 Enclosure APS Response to Response to (RAI) -Relief Request 51published safety evaluations (SEs), NUREGs, or other NRC documents.

If this cannotbe demonstrated, please provide Reference 7 to support this review.APS ResponseThe requested Reference 7, Dominion Engineering, Inc., Calculation No. C-7789-00-2, Revision No. 1, Palo Verde Bottom Head Instrumentation Nozzle Stress Analysis, isprovided in Attachment 2 of this enclosure.

The document reports the results of a threedimensional elastic plastic finite element analysis (FEA) performed as part of aWestinghouse Owners Group (WOG) initiative on Bottom Mounted Instrument Nozzlesrelated to WCAP 16468-NP, Risk Assessment of Potential Cracking in Bottom MountedInstrumentation

Nozzles, September 2005.NRC RAI-5Table 4-3 of Attachment 2 [of Relief Request 51] presents the hoop stresses at different depths of the RVBH wall for the steady state (SS), cooldown (CD), and their combinedeffect. The NRC staff has the following requests:
  • Identify the loads that were considered in the SS condition (i.e., any of the three:pressure, steady state thermal load, and residual stresses).

Repeat the similaridentification for the CD condition.

APS ResponseAttachment 2 of this enclosure provides the combined hoop and axial stresses fromoperating

pressure, operating temperature and residual stresses.

The operating parameters used to represent the SS condition are as follows:o Operating Pressure:

2235 pounds per square inch absolute (psia)o Operating Temperature (Cold Leg Temperature):

5650Fo Weld residual stresses from FEA simulation (where the hoop stresses arebounding)

The parameters used to calculate the CD condition used the same total stresses asdefined for the SS condition above and included a cooldown transient of100°F/hour.

6 Enclosure APS Response to Response to (RAI) -Relief Request 51Confirm that the thermal state associated with the SS condition is the starting pointof the CD condition.

APS ResponseThe starting temperature is 5650F, which is the same value used for the normaloperating temperature at steady state conditions for the RVBH (Cold LegTemperature).

The stress pattern for the SS condition (Column 2 of Table 4-3 under SS) is veryunusual.

Please provide the corresponding stress components due to pressure,

thermal, and residual stresses for each position (or depth) in Table 4-3. Explain theunusual zigzag stress pattern to demonstrate that it is not caused by modelingerrors.APS ResponseAttachment 2 of this enclosure does not provide each stress component separately.

The total stress at each nozzle node location is shown along its vertical axis from thetop to the bottom of the weld. Below the weld, the FEA provides nodal stresses atthe nozzle as well as the lower head material.

It is at this location that the lowerhead hoop stresses drop by a larger amount than the nozzle nodes because theweld no longer restrains the bore. The lower head hoop stresses then increase toprovide equilibrium in the local region of the lower head. This is the reason for theunusual zigzag stress pattern.To investigate the sensitivity of the results to the stress field, the EPFM flawevaluations were repeated using only nozzle stresses for Column 2 of Table 4-3. Inthis manner, the value of the stress at the eighth position changed from 3.862 to37.480 ksi and the last stress changed from 40.983 to 23.501 ksi. When only nozzlestresses are considered in the flaw evaluations, the applied J-integral changed from0.953 to 1.002 kips/in and the applied tearing modulus changed from 17.508 to18.405. This demonstrates that the final results are relatively insensitive to thestresses near the crack tip.If residual stresses are not included in the SS condition, confirm that residualstresses are considered in the subsequent applied stress intensity factor (K) orapplied J calculations (Tables 6-1 and 6-2 do not show explicitly the contribution dueto residual stresses).

7 Enclosure APS Response to Response to (RAI) -Relief Request 51APS ResponseResidual stresses are considered in the SS condition, which is combined with thenormal operating pressure and temperature in Attachment 2 of this enclosure, asdescribed earlier in this RAI. This total stress is utilized in subsequent applied stressintensity factor (K) and applied J calculations in the fracture mechanics evaluation.

NRC RAI-6Section 4.1.4 of Attachment 2 [of Relief Request 51] presents the generic J-R curveused in the elastic plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) evaluation.

This J-R curve isbased on the J model from Appendix D to NUREG-0744, Vol. 2, Rev. 1, "Resolution ofthe Task A-11 Reactor Vessel Materials Toughness Safety Issue," 1982. The generic J-R curve models for various low upper-shelf RPV materials are presented in RG 1.161,"Evaluation of Reactor Pressure Vessels with Charpy Upper-Shelf Energy Less Than 50FT-LB," 1995. Please provide J-R curves based on both approaches to demonstrate that your J-R curve based on NUREG-0744, Vol. 2, Rev. 1 is not significantly different from the RG 1.161 model. Provide correction and reassess your final conclusion if thedifference is significant.

Please note that the database underlying the J-R model forRPV base metals in RG 1.161 contains not just low upper-shelf energy materials.

APS ResponseThe EPFM flaw evaluations performed to demonstrate that a remnant flaw in the PaloVerde Nuclear Generating Station Unit 3 bottom mounted instrument nozzle number 3is acceptable for one fuel cycle utilized methodology previously approved by the NRCfor Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 1 (ML042890174),

These submittals were based on the same NUREG-0744 J-R curve correlation and the same EPFM safety factors that were used in thepresent submittal for Palo Verde, which are higher than those specified in Regulatory Guide 1.161.The basic differences between the NUREG-744 and RG 1.161 approaches are the J-Rcorrelations and the EPFM safety factors.J-R Curve correlations for a Charpy upper shelf energy value of 119 ft-lbs:NUREG-0744 RG 1.161Jmat = C(Aa)m JR = (MF) { C1 (Aa)c2 exp[ C3 (Aa)c4] }C= 7.68 C1 = exp[ -2.44 + 1.13 1n(CVN) -0.00277T]

In this analysis, a number of nozzlegeometries spanning the range of BMI penetration angles in the Palo Verde reactor bottom head areinvestigated.

2.0 Summary of ResultsFour BMI nozzle geometries were analyzed:

the center penetration (0.0' nozzle),

26.6' nozzle, 37.9'nozzle, and outermost penetration (49.00 nozzle).

The cases support the following conclusions:

1. The maximum nozzle ID hoop stresses are in the vicinity of the J-groove weld and are in excess of thecorresponding axial stresses, suggesting that PWSCC cracking should be axially oriented.
2. Residual hoop stresses in the head shell region just beyond the J-groove weld are largely compressive.

3.0 Input Requirements The following values are used in this calculation:

1. The local configuration of the J-groove weld attaching the BMI nozzles to the RPV bottom head. Thedetails used for each model are taken from Combustion Engineering (CE) drawings (References 2a,2c, 2f, 2h, 2k, 2m).2. Detailed dimensions of the RPV bottom head and BMI nozzles.

These values are taken from the setof CE drawings presented as Reference (2):Nozzles:-BMI Nozzle OD = 3.001 inches (in region of J-groove weld) -Ref. (2d, 2i, 2n)-BMI Nozzle ID = 0.750 inches (in region of J-groove weld) -Ref. (2d, 2i, 2n)Reactor Vessel:-Cladding thickness

An operating temperature and pressure of 5657F and 2,235 psigwere used for the current analysis.

As is noted in Section 4, these values were assumed for thisanalysis.

1. The range of clearance fits for the Palo Verde BMI nozzles may be calculated from References (2c)and (2d) (for Unit 1), (2h) and (2i) (for Unit 2), and (2m) and (2n) (for Unit 3). For the currentanalysis, the nominal 1.5 mil radial clearance fit was used.2. Based on experimental stress-strain data and certified mill test report data for the materials listedbelow, the following room-temperature and 600'F elastic limit values were used in association withthe elastic-perfectly plastic hardening laws described in Section 5. 1:Material 70OF 600°FAlloy 182 Welds (Original and Replacement) 75.0 ksi 60.0 ksiLow-Alloy Steel Shell 70.0 ksi 57.6 ksiStainless Steel Cladding 40.0 ksi 28.9 ksiThe elastic limit values for the base materials (head shell and cladding),

which undergo small strainsduring the analysis, are based on the 0.2% offset yield strength for the material.

The elastic limitvalues for the weld materials, which undergo large strains during the analysis, are based on an averageof the reported yield and tensile strengths.

3. Based on high temperature yield strength data for Alloy 600 bar in Ref. (6), the following temperature scaling factors were applied to the Alloy 600 multi-linear isotropic hardening curve described inSection 5. 1:0 70 OF: 1.15
  • 1,600 OF: 0.290 600 OF: 1.00
  • 2,300 OF: 0.05* 1,200 °F: 0.83
  • 3,500 OF: 0.054. Prior to the J-groove welding process, a stress relief pass at 1,100°F is performed by applying auniform temperature to the model. The stress-strain properties of the head, J-groove weld, andstainless cladding have been selected such that the low alloy steel material relaxes to a stress nogreater than 25 ksi, while the other materials relax to stresses no greater than 30 ksi.5. For the J-groove weld simulation, two passes of welding were performed:

an inner pass and an outerpass. The model geometry was designed such that each weld pass is approximately the same volume.6. The model geometries for each of the BMI nozzle cases were based on nominal as-designed dimensions.

In addition, as noted in Section 3, the minimum dimensioned bottom head thickness (6.5inches per Reference 2i) was used.7. The BMI nozzle in each of the four cases was modeled such that the nozzle end (of length "D," asindicated in References 2d and 2h) at which the nozzle ID and OD are not equal to 0.750 and 3.001inches is neglected.

Omission of the nozzle end from the model is justified by the stress resultspresented in Figures 5-2 through 5-5, which show that both hoop (Sy) and axial (Sz) stresses decay Enclosure

This rapid reduction in stress isattributable to the comparably stiff BMI nozzles at Palo Verde (due to the high wallthickness/diameter ratio of the nozzles).

8. Operating pressure and temperature.

An operating temperature and pressure of 565°F and 2,235 psig,respectively, were assumed for the current analysis.

5.0 Analysis5.1 Finite Element AnalysesFinite element analyses of the BMI nozzles were performed for a total of four cases, selected to bracket therange of BMI penetration angles in the Palo Verde reactor vessel heads. The four BMI geometry casesanalyzed are: 0.00 (penetration no. 1), 26.6' (penetration nos. 21 and 22), 37.9' (penetration no. 41), and49.00 (penetration nos. 60 and 61). Figure 5-1 shows the element geometry and node numbering scheme forthe 37.9' BMI nozzle model. The numbering scheme used for the BMI model is identical for all four casesconsidered in this calculation.

ANSYS finite element analyses were performed using a model based on work developed for commercial customers and described in a 1994 EPRI report on the subject of PWSCC of Alloy 600 components in PWRprimary system service (Ref. 1).All nozzles were analyzed using 3D models. The model includes a sector of the alloy steel head withstainless steel cladding on the inside surface, the Alloy 600 nozzle, the Inconel buttering layer in the J-groove weld preparation (simulated as a single weld pass for this analysis),

and the Inconel weld materialdivided into two "passes" of approximately equal volume. The stainless steel cladding and Inconelbuttering layers were included in the model since these materials have significantly different coefficients ofthermal conductivity compared to the carbon steel vessel head, and therefore influence the weld coolingprocess.The boundary conditions on the conical surfaces are such that only radial deflections in the spherical coordinate system are permitted.

The nozzles are modeled as being installed in holes in the vessel headusing gap elements with an initial radial clearance of 1.5 mils (as discussed in Section 4.0).

The butter weld deposition process issimulated using a single pass; i.e., the butter region is deposited as a single ring of material.

Aftercompletion of the butter deposition step, the entire model (with the exception of the nozzle and J-grooveweld elements, which are not yet active in the model) is uniformly raised to 1,100°F.

As noted below, theelastic limit material properties of the head shell and butter at 1,100°F are reduced relative to those used inReference (Q) in order to simulate the stress relaxation caused by a multiple-hour stress relief at 1,1 00°F.This analysis includes steps for weld depositing the butter and stress relieving the head and butter prior tothe J-groove welding steps. In order to accurately model the stress relaxation in the weld region due to timeat elevated temperature, the elastic limit for the Alloy 182 weld and stainless steel cladding at temperatures near 1,100°F are reduced relative to curves used in the Reference (1) analyses.

The reduced elastic limitsare set at values consistent with the lower residual stress levels brought about by the multiple-hour stressrelief. This reduction in elastic limit allows stresses in the pressurizer shell, cladding, and buttering toredistribute at the lower residual stress levels.The welds (both the weld butter and J-groove weld) are modeled as rings of weld metal which are heatedand cooled. As noted above, weld buttering is simulated as a single weld pass; the J-groove weld issimulated as two weld passes. The welding process is simulated by combined thermal and structural analyses.

The thermal analysis is used to generate nodal temperature distributions throughout the model atseveral points in time during the welding process.

These nodal temperatures are then used as inputconditions to the structural

analysis, which calculates the thermally induced stresses.

Once welding iscompleted, a hydrostatic pressure load is applied to, then removed from, the wetted regions of the model atambient temperature.

Finally, the model is loaded with operating temperature and pressure.

The combination of thermal and structural analyses required the use of both thermal and structural finiteelement types, as follows:Thermal Analysis.

For the 3-D thermal analysis, eight-node thermal solids (SOLID70) and nullelements (Type 0) were used. Use of null elements between the nozzle and head penetration has theeffect of limiting heat transfer between the nozzle and head to conduction through the J-groove region.This assumption was made because the head penetrations are counterbored both at the upper and lower Enclosure

Eight-node 3-D isoparametric solid elements (SOLID45) and two-node interface elements (COMBIN40) were used for the 3-D structural analyses.

The SOLID45 and COMBIN40elements replaced the SOLID70 and null elements, respectively, which had been used for the thermalanalysis.

Degenerate four- and six-node solid elements were not used in areas of high stress gradientsince they can lead to significant errors when used in these regions (7). Higher order elements were notused since they provide no greater accuracy for elastic-plastic analyses than the eight-node solids (7_).Further details of the finite element modeling process are available in Reference (1_).In Reference (1), the analytical results of the finite element model were correlated with the experimental and field data that were available at the time. This study showed that the locations of observed crackingcorrelated well with regions of highest stress in the analytical model. Additionally, the measured ovality atEdF and Ringhals CRDM nozzles was found to correlate well with the analytically predicted ovality forthese nozzles.

Further details of the correlation between analytical and experimental/field data are available in Reference (1).It is noted that the finite element model has been improved and refined since it was described in Reference (1). Among the improvements over the model described in Reference (1) are the following:

I. While the material properties used for the nozzle material continue to make use of multi-linear isotropic hardening, the material properties for the weld and weld buttering, head shell, and stainless steel cladding are now modeled using elastic-perfectly plastic hardening laws. Experience has shownthat using multi-linear hardening properties in the analysis of materials that experience a high degreeof plastic strain at elevated temperatures (such as those within the J-groove welds) results insignificant work hardening once the material has cooled to lower temperatures.

Using elastic-perfectly plastic hardening laws does not allow this artificial work hardening to occur, which yieldsmore realistic stresses in the weld portions of the model.2. The ability to refine the mesh in the various regions of the model. The model geometry used in thiscalculation makes use of approximately four times the mesh refinement in the J-groove weld areas asis shown in Reference (1), and uses greater mesh refinement in other areas of the model, such as thenozzle.

welding, as an alternative to two passes. This feature produces moresatisfactory results with J-groove welds that are deep compared to the wall thickness of the adjacentnozzle, such as for head vent and thermocouple RPV head penetrations.

In addition to these improvements, the finite element model has been modified for work specific toWestinghouse.

In particular, the stress versus strain values for the multi-linear isotropic hardening used forthe Alloy 600 nozzle material have been changed to be consistent with Alloy 600 cyclic stress-strain curve(CSSC) data obtained in Reference (3). The curve input for the analytical model is found in Figure 2-29 of(3), and is labeled "Reference Curve for Analysis."

Because the CSSC curve in (3) is for only onetemperature (600 'F), the reference curve was scaled to a number of other temperatures as follows.

At eachof the five strain values used to define the multi-linear isotropic hardening behavior of the nozzle material at600 'F, the corresponding stress was linearly scaled up or down according to the scaling factors listed inSection 4.0, which are based on high temperature yield strength data for Alloy 600 in Reference (6). Thesescaling factors are consistent with the work performed using the version of the finite element model that isnot specific to Westinghouse work. The ANSYS code that creates the finite element model with thesechanges has now been incorporated into DEI's "cirse.base" file. Version 2.4.6 of the cirse.base code wasused for the four BMI cases considered in this calculation.

5.2 Analytical Results SummarySummaries of the analytical results for each of the models analyzed are contained in Attachment 1 to thiscalculation.

These summaries show the maximum hoop and axial stresses at the ID of the nozzle, at the"uphill" and "downhill" (closest to the center of the head) circumferential planes, as well as "below" theweld (axial portion of the nozzle including the weld region and extending through the head shell) and"above" the weld (axial portion of the nozzle extending into the RPV). Plots of the hoop (SY) and axial(SZ) stresses in each of the four BMI model cases are shown in Figures 5-2 through 5-5.Figures 5-2 through 5-5 and Attachment I show that the maximum hoop stresses are in the vicinity of theJ-groove weld, and are in excess of the corresponding axial stresses, suggesting that PWSCC crackingshould be axially oriented.

The results also show that operating plus residual stresses are influenced bypenetration angle, with higher angles generally leading to higher maximum hoop and axial stresses.

The additional post-processing was performed using the file "Westpost8.txt,"

included as Attachment 2 to this calculation.

The results of the additional post-processing are presented in Tables 5-1 through 5-4 and in Figures 5-6through 5-9. With the exception of Table 5-4, all data and stress plots are for the operating plus weldresidual stress load condition.

Table 5-1 presents the hoop stress distribution through the nozzle thickness at five specific axial locations for both the downhill and uphill sides of the nozzle. These locations are:0.5" above the top of the weld, the top of the weld, the middle of the weld, the bottom of the weld, and 0.5"below the bottom of the weld. Table 5-2 presents the axial stress distribution through the nozzle thickness at the bottom of the weld, following the sweep of the weld from downhill to uphill. Data are tabulated foreach of the nine circumferential planes in the model. For Table 5-2, the axial stress results are in anelement-oriented coordinate system which follows the path of the weld; the axial stress results presented inTable 5-2 are normal to the path of the weld. Tables 5-3a through 5-3d present the hoop stress distribution along the ID and the OD of the four BMI nozzle geometries at both the downhill and uphill sides. Table 5-4presents the weld residual deflection at the inner diameter of the nozzle at each of the nine circumferential planes in the model for four axial locations.

These data are used to calculate the change in inner diameter ateach of the locations.

The four axial locations are presented as defined in Reference (4), and are as follows:Location 2 -0.5" above the top of the uphill weld, Location 3 -top of the uphill weld, Location 4 -bottomof the uphill weld, and Location "X" -top of the downhill weld. Figures 5-6 through 5-9 are axial stressplots of the nozzle wall cross section at the bottom of the weld and following the sweep of the weld fromuphill to downhill.

As in Table 5-2, the stresses are in an element-oriented coordinate system which followsthe path of the weld; the axial stress results presented are normal to the path of the weld.5.4 Additional Files Stored Electronically In addition to the condensed post-processing included in this calculation, more voluminous output resultshave been saved electronically in the following directories and filenames:

QA controlsassociated with all ANSYS batch input listings are also carried out by DEL. These include independent checks of a batch input listing each time it is used; review of all ANSYS Class 3 error reports and QAnotices to assess their potential impact on a batch listing; and independent "check calculations" (e.g.,comparison of model-computed nozzle and reactor vessel head stresses to theoretical closed-form solutions; confirmation that computed weld pass temperatures fell within target temperature ranges; and, forsymmetric (00 nozzle angle) geometry cases, confirmation of the applied pressure loading and resultssymmetry) to ensure that the project-specific application of the analysis is appropriate.

The review ofANSYS error reports and QA notices as well as the project-specific check calculations are documented formally in a QA memo to the project file (this project is DEI Task 77-89).1 DEI's quality assurance program for safety-related work (DEI-002) commits to applicable requirements of 10 CFR 21,Appendix B of 10 CFR 50, and ASME/ANSI NQA-1. This QA program is independently audited periodically by both NUPIC(the Nuclear Procurement Issues Committee) and NIAC (the Nuclear Industry Assessment Committee).
