SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to document the testing results of surveillance Capsule W from Callaway Unit 1. Capsule W was removed at 25.75 Effective Full Power Years (EFPY) and post-irradiation mechanical tests of the Charpy V-notch and tensile specimens were performed. A fluence evaluation utilizing the neutron transport and dosimetry cross-section libraries was derived from the ENDF/B-VI database. Capsule W received a fluence of 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) after irradiation to 25.75 EFPY. The peak clad/base metal interface vessel fluence after 25.75 EFPY of plant operation was 1.49 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV). This evaluation led to the following conclusions: 1) The measured percent decreases in upper-shelf energy for the surveillance plate (longitudinal and tr ansverse orientations) and weld materials contained in Callaway Unit 1 Capsule W are less than the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] predictions. 2) The Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate is judged to be non-credible and the surveillance weld (Heat # 90077) is judged to be credible. This credibility evaluation can be found in Appendix D. 3) With consideration of surveillance data, all beltline and extended beltline materials exhibit adequate upper-shelf energy levels for continued safe plant operation and are predicted to maintain an upper-shelf energy greater than 50 ft-lb through end-of-license (35 EFPY) and end-of-license renewal (54 EFPY) as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G [Ref. 2]. The upper-she lf energy evaluation is presented in Appendix E. Lastly, a brief summary of the Charpy V-notch testing can be found in Section 1. All Charpy V-notch data was plotted using a symmetric hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program.

SUMMARY
OF RESULTS The analysis of the reactor vessel materials contained in surveillance Capsule W, the fifth capsule removed and tested from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel, led to the following conclusions:
Charpy V-notch test data were plotted using a symmetric hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program. Appendix C presents the CVGRAPH, Version 6.0, Charpy V-notch plots for Capsule W and previous capsules, along with the program input data.
Capsule W received an average fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) of 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 after 25.75 effective full power years (EFPY) of plant operation.
Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major working direction (longitudinal orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 55.9F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 92.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 58.6 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 69.1F for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major working direction (transverse orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 77.1F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 139.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 95.2F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 111.2F for the transversely oriented specimens. Irradiation of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 12.8F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 42.0F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 65.8 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 60.7 F. Irradiation of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) Material Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of -8.6F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 30.6 F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 91.6F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 84.3 F. The average upper-shelf energy (USE) of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 9 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 117 ft-lb for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 21 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 83 ft-lb for the transversely oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 4 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 103 ft-lb for the weld metal specimens.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 1-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The average upper-shelf energy of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 5 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 101 ft-lb for the HAZ Material.
Comparisons of the measured 30 ft-lb shift in transition temperature values and upper-shelf energy decreases to those predicted by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel surveillance materials are presented in Table 5-10.
Based on the credibility evaluation presented in Appendix D, the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate is non-credible and the surveillance weld material (Heat # 90077) is credible.
Based on the upper-shelf energy evaluation in Appendix E, all beltline and extended beltline materials contained in the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel exhibit adequate upper-shelf energy levels for continued safe plant operation and are predicted to maintain an upper-shelf energy greater than 50 ft-lb through end-of-license (35 EFPY) and end-of-license renewal (54 EFPY) as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G [Ref. 2].
The maximum calculated 54 EFPY (end-of-license renewal) neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline using the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 attenuation formula (i.e., Equation #3 in the Guide) is as follows:
Calculated (54 EFPY): Vessel clad/base metal interface fluence* = 2.91 x 10 19 n/cm 2 Vessel 1/4 thickness fluence = 1.73 x 10 19 n/cm 2 *This fluence value is documented in Table 6-6.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 2-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 2 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of the examination of Capsule W, the fifth capsule removed and tested in the continuing surveillance program, which monitors the effects of neutron irradiation on the Ameren Missouri Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel materials under actual operating conditions.
The surveillance program for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel materials was designed and recommended by the Westinghouse Electric Company. A description of the surveillance program and the pre-irradiation mechanical properties of the reactor vessel materials are contained in WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3], "Union Electric Company Callaway Unit No. 1 Reactor Vessel Radiation Surveillance Program." The surveillance program was originally planned to cover the 40-year design life of the reactor pressure vessel and was based on ASTM E185-73 [Ref. 4], "Standard Recommended Practice for Surveillance Tests for Nuclear Reactor Vessels."
Capsule W was removed from the reactor after 25.75 EFPY of exposure and shipped to the Westinghouse Materials Center of Excellence Hot Cell Facility, where the post-irradiation mechanical testing of the Charpy V-notch impact and tensile surveillance specimens was performed.
This report summarizes the testing and post-irradiation data obtained from surveillance Capsule W removed from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel and discusses the analysis of the data.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 3-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 3 BACKGROUND The ability of the large steel pressure vessel containing the reactor core and its primary coolant to resist fracture constitutes an important factor in ensuring safety in the nuclear industry. The beltline region of the reactor pressure vessel is the most critical region of the vessel because it is subjected to significant fast neutron bombardment. The overall effects of fast neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of low-alloy, ferritic pressure vessel steels such as SA533 Grade B Class 1 (base material of the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel beltline) are well documented in the literature. Generally, low-alloy ferritic materials show an increase in hardness and tensile properties and a decrease in ductility and toughness during high-energy irradiation.
A method for ensuring the integrity of reactor pressure vessels has been presented in "Fracture Toughness Criteria for Protection Against Failure," Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code [Ref. 5]. The method uses fracture mechanics concepts and is based on the reference nil-ductility transition temperature (RTNDT).
RT NDT is defined as the greater of either the drop-weight nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT per ASTM E208 [Ref. 6]) or the temperature 60F less than the 50 ft-lb (and 35 mil lateral expansion) temperature as determined from Charpy specimens oriented perpendicular (transverse) to the major working direction of the plate. The RT NDT of a given material is used to index that material to a reference stress intensity factor curve (K Ic curve) which appears in Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Code [Ref. 5]. The K Ic curve is a lower bound of static fracture toughness results obtained from several heats of pressure vessel steel. When a given material is indexed to the K Ic curve, allowable stress intensity factors can be obtained for this material as a function of temperature. Allowable operating limits can then be determined using these allowable stress intensity factors.
RT NDT and, in turn, the operating limits of nuclear power plants can be adjusted to account for the effects of radiation on the reactor vessel material properties. The changes in mechanical properties of a given reactor pressure vessel steel, due to irradiation, can be monitored by a reactor vessel surveillance program, such as the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel radiation surveillance program, in which a surveillance capsule is periodically removed from the operating nuclear reactor and the encapsulated specimens are tested. The increase in the average Charpy V-notch 30 ft-lb temperature (RT NDT) due to irradiation is added to the initial RT NDT, along with a margin (M) to cover uncertainties, to adjust the RT NDT (ART) for radiation embrittlement. This ART (initial RT NDT + M + RT NDT) is used to index the material to the K Ic curve and, in turn, to set operating limits for the nuclear power plant that take into account the effects of irradiation on the reactor vessel materials.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 4-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 4 DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM Six surveillance capsules for monitoring the effects of neutron exposure on the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel core region (beltline) materials were inserted in the reactor vessel prior to initial plant startup. The six capsules were positioned in the reactor vessel, as shown in Figure 4-1, between the neutron shielding pads and the vessel wall, at various azimuthal locations. The vertical center of the capsules is opposite the vertical center of the core. The capsules contain specimens made from the following:
Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) Weld metal fabricated with weld wire Heat Number 90077, Linde Type 124 flux, Lot Number 1061, which is identical to that used in the actual fabrication of the intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld and is the equivalent heat number used in the actual fabrication of the intermediate shell and lower shell longitudinal weld seams; however, these vessel welds used Linde Type 0091 flux in their fabrication Weld heat affected zone (HAZ) material of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Test material obtained from the lower shell plate (after thermal heat treatment and forming of the plate) was taken at least one plate thickness from the quenched edges of the plate. All test specimens were machined from the 1/4 thickness location of the plate after performing a simulated post-weld stress relieving treatment on the test material. Test specimens were also removed from weld metal of a stress relieved weldment joining Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 and adjacent Intermediate Shell Plate R2707-1. All heat-affected zone specimens were obtained from the weld heat affected zone of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1. Charpy V-notch impact specimens from Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 were machined in the longitudinal orientation (longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major rolling direction) and also in the transverse orientation (longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major rolling direction). The core-region weld Charpy impact specimens were machined from the weldment such that the long dimension of each Charpy specimen was perpendicular (normal) to the weld direction. The notch of the weld metal Charpy specimens was machined such that the direction of crack propagation in the specimen was in the welding direction.
Tensile specimens from Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 were machined in both the longitudinal and transverse orientations. Tensile specimens from the weld metal were oriented perpendicular to the welding direction.
Compact Tension (CT) specimens from Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 were machined in both the longitudinal and transverse orientations. CT specimens from the weld metal were machined with the notch oriented in the direction of welding. All specimens were fatigue pre-cracked according to ASTM E399 [Ref. 7].
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 4-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 All six capsules contain dosimeter wires of pure iron, copper, nickel, and aluminum-0.15 weight percent cobalt (cadmium-shielded and unshielded). In addition, cadmium-shielded dosimeters of Neptunium (237Np) and Uranium (238U) were placed in the capsules to measure the integrated flux at specific neutron energy levels.
The capsules contain thermal monitors made from two low-melting-point eutectic alloys, which were sealed in Pyrex tubes. These thermal monitors were used to define the maximum temperature attained by the test specimens during irradiation. The composition of the two eutectic alloys and their melting points are as follows:
2.5% Ag, 97.5% Pb Melting Point: 579°F (304°C) 1.5% Ag, 1.0% Sn, 97.5% Pb Melting Point: 590°F (310°C)
The chemical composition and the heat treatment of the unirradiated surveillance materials in Capsule W are presented in Tables 4-1 and 4-2, respectively. The data in Tables 4-1 and 4-2 was obtained from the original surveillance program report, WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3].
Capsule W was removed after 25.75 effective full power years (EFPY) of plant operation. This capsule contained Charpy V-notch, tensile and compact tension specimens, dosimeters, and thermal monitors. Figures 4-1 and 4-2 detail the arrangement of the surveillance capsules in the reactor and the placement of specimens within Capsule W, respectively.

Testing was performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix H [Ref. 2] and ASTM Specification E185-82 [Ref. 8]. Capsule W was opened upon receipt at the hot cell laboratory. The specimens and spacer blocks were carefully removed, inspected for identification number, and checked against the master list in WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3]. All of the items were in their proper locations. Examination of the thermal monitors indicated that 1 of the 3 temperature monitors had melted, as described below: Top Thermal Monitor, the 579
°F (304°C) was melted. Middle Thermal Monitor, the 590
°F (310°C) was not melted. Bottom Thermal Monitor, the 579
°F (304°C) was not melted. Based on this examination, the maximum temperature to which the specimens were exposed was less than 590°F (310°C), but greater than 579°F (304°C). The Charpy impact tests were performed per ASTM Specification E185-82 [Ref. 8] and E23-12c [Ref. 9] on a Tinius-Olsen Model 74, 358J machine. The Charpy machine striker was instrumented with an Instron Impulse system. Instrumented testing and calibration were performed to ASTM E2298-13a [Ref. 10].
The instrumented striker load signal data acquisition rate was 819 kHz with data acquired for 10 ms. From the load-time curve, the load of general yielding (F gy), the maximum load (F m) and the time to maximum load were determined. Under some test conditions, a sharp drop in load indicative of fast fracture was observed. The load at which fast fracture was initiated is identified as the brittle fracture load (F bf). The termination load after the fast load drop is identified as the arrest load (F a). F gy , F m , F bf , and F a were determined per the guidance in ASTM Standard E2298-13a [Ref. 10].
The energy at maximum load (W m) was determined by integrating the load-time record to the maximum load point. The energy at maximum load is approximately equivalent to the energy required to initiate a crack in the specimen. Therefore, the propagation energy for the crack (W P) is the difference between the total energy (W t) and the energy at maximum load (W m). W t is compared to the dial energy (KV). W t derived from the instrumented striker were all within 15% of the calibrated dial energy values as required in ASTM E2298-13a [Ref. 10].
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Percent shear was determined from post-fracture photographs using the ratio-of-areas method in compliance with ASTM E23-12c [Ref. 9] and A370-13 [Ref. 11]. The lateral expansion was measured using a dial gage rig similar to that shown in the same specifications. Tensile tests were performed on a 250 KN Instron screw driven tensile machine (Model 5985) per ASTM E185-82 [Ref. 8]. Testing met ASTM Specifications E8/E8M-13a [Ref. 12] or E21-09 [Ref. 13]. Load was applied through a clevis and pin connection. The strain rate obtained met the requirements of ASTM E8/E8M-13a [Ref. 12] and ASTM E21-09 [Ref. 13].
Elevated test temperatures were obtained with a three-zone electric resistance split-tube furnace with a 11-inch hot zone. Tensile specimens were soaked at temperature (+/-5ºF) for a minimum of 20 minutes before testing. All tests were conducted in air.
The tensile specimens were, nominally, 4.230 inches long with a 1.00 inch gage section and a reduced section of 1.50 inches long by 0.250 inch in diameter, as documented in Figure 2-2 of WCAP-9842 [Ref.
3]. The yield load, ultimate load, fracture load, uniform elongation and elongation at fracture were determined directly from the load-extension curve. The yield strength (0.2% offset method), ultimate tensile strength and fracture strength were calculated using the original cross-sectional area. Yield point elongation (YPE) was calculated as the difference in strain between the upper yield strength and the onset of uniform strain hardening using the methodology described in E8/E8M-13a [Ref. 12]. The final diameter and final gage length were determined from post-fracture photographs. This final diameter measurement was used to calculate the fracture stress (true stress at fracture) and the percent reduction in area. The final and original gage lengths were used to calculate total elongation after fracture.
5.2 CHARPY V-NOTCH IMPACT TEST RESULTS The results of the Charpy V-notch impact tests performed on the various materials contained in Capsule W, which received a fluence of 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) in 25.75 EFPY of operation, are presented in Tables 5-1 through 5-8 and are compared with the unirradiated and previously withdrawn capsule results as shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-12. The unirradiated and previously withdrawn capsule results were taken from WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3], WCAP-11374 [Ref. 14], WCAP-12946 [Ref. 15], WCAP-14895 [Ref. 16] and WCAP-15400 [Ref. 17]. The previous capsules, along with the original program unirradiated material input data, were updated using CVGRAPH, Version 6.0. This accounts for the differences in measured values of 30 ft-lb and 50 ft-lb transition temperature between the results documented in this report and those shown in prior Callaway Unit 1 capsule reports.
The transition temperature increases and changes in upper-shelf energies for the Capsule W materials are summarized in Table 5-9 and led to the following results:
Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major working direction (longitudinal orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 55.9F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 92.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 58.6 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 69.1F for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major working direction (transverse orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 77.1F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 139.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 95.2F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 111.2F for the transversely oriented specimens. Irradiation of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 12.8F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 42.0F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 65.8 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 60.7 F. Irradiation of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) Material Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of -8.6F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 30.6 F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 91.6F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 84.3 F. The irradiated upper-shelf energy of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 9 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 117 ft-lb for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 21 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 83 ft-lb for the transversely oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat #90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 4 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 103 ft-lb for the weld metal specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 5 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 101 ft-lb for the HAZ Material.
Comparisons of the measured 30 ft-lb shift in transition temperature values and upper-shelf energy decreases to those predicted by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel surveillance materials are presented in Table 5-10.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-4 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The fracture appearance of each irradiated Charpy specimen from the various materials is shown in Figures 5-13 through 5-16. The fractures show an increasingly ductile or tougher appearance with increasing test temperature. Load-time records for the individual instrumented Charpy specimens are contained in Appendix B.
With consideration of the surveillance data, all beltline materials exhibit adequate upper-shelf energy levels for continued safe plant operation and are predicted to maintain an upper-shelf energy greater than 50 ft-lb through end-of-license (35 EFPY) and end-of-license renewal (54 EFPY) as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G [Ref. 2]. This evaluation can be found in Appendix E.
5.3 TENSILE TEST RESULTS The results of the tensile tests performed on the various materials contained in Capsule W irradiated to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) are presented in Table 5-11 and are compared with unirradiated results as shown in Figures 5-17 through 5-19. The results of the tensile tests performed on the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) indicated that irradiation to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) caused increases in the 0.2 percent offset yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength when compared to unirradiated data [Ref. 3]. See Figure 5-17 and Table 5-11. The results of the tensile tests performed on the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) indicated that irradiation to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) caused increases in the 0.2 percent offset yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength when compared to unirradiated data [Ref. 3]. See Figure 5-18 and Table 5-11. The results of the tensile tests performed on the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) indicated that irradiation to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) caused increases in the 0.2 percent offset yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength when compared to unirradiated data [Ref. 3]. See Figure 5-19 and Table 5-11. The fractured tensile specimens for the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) material are shown in Figure 5-20; the fractured tensile specimens for the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) material are shown in Figure 5-21; the fractured tensile specimens for the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) are shown in Figure 5-22. The engineering stress-strain curves for the tensile tests are shown in Figures 5-23 through 5-25.

6.1 INTRODUCTION
This section describes a discrete ordinates (S n) transport analysis performed for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor to determine the neutron radiation environment within the reactor pressure vessel and surveillance capsules. In this analysis, fast neutron exposure parameters in terms of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacements (dpa) were established on a plant- and fuel-cycle-specific basis. An evaluation of the most recent dosimetry sensor set from Capsule W, withdrawn at the end of the 20 th plant operating cycle, is provided. In addition, the sensor sets from the previously withdrawn and analyzed capsules (U, Y, V, and X) were re-analyzed and are presented. Comparisons of the results from these dosimetry evaluations with the analytical predictions served to validate the plant-specific neutron transport calculations. These validated calculations subsequently form the basis for projections of the neutron exposure of the reactor pressure vessel for operating periods extending to 60 effective full-power years (EFPY) at 3565 MWt. The use of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to correlate measured material property changes to the neutron exposure of the material has traditionally been accepted for the development of damage trend curves as well as for the implementation of trend curve data to assess the condition of the vessel. However, in recent years, it has been suggested that an exposure model that accounts for differences in neutron energy spectra between surveillance capsule locations and positions within the vessel wall could lead to an improvement in the uncertainties associated with damage trend curves and improved accuracy in the evaluation of damage gradients through the reactor vessel wall. Because of this potential shift away from a threshold fluence toward an energy-dependent damage function for data correlation, ASTM Standard Practice E853-13, "Standard Practice for Analysis and Interpretation of Light-Water Reactor Surveillance Results," [Ref. 18] recommends reporting displacements per iron atom (dpa) along with fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to provid e a database for future reference. The energy-dependent dpa function to be used for this evaluation is specified in ASTM Standard Practice E693-94, "Standard Practice for Characterizing Neutron Exposures in Iron and Low Alloy Steels in Terms of Displacements per Atom" [Ref. 19]. The application of the dpa parameter to the assessment of embrittlement gradients through the thickness of the reactor vessel wall has already been promulgated in Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.99, "Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials" [Ref. 1]. All of the calculations and dosimetry evaluations described in this section and in Appendix A were based on nuclear cross-section data derived from ENDF/B-VI and used the latest available calculational tools. Furthermore, the neutron transport and dosimetry evaluation methodologies follow the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.190, "Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence" [Ref. 20]. Additionally, the methods used to develop the calculated pressure vessel fluence are consistent with the NRC-approved methodology described in WCAP-14040, Revision 4, [Ref. 21]. As an improvement, instead of the fluence rate synthesis technique, three-dimensional transport calculations were performed.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 6.2 DISCRETE ORDINATES ANALYSIS The arrangement of the surveillance capsules in the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel is shown in Figure 4-1. Six irradiation capsules attached to the neutron pad are included in the reactor design that constitutes the reactor vessel surveillance program. The capsules are located at azimuthal angles of 58.5°, 61.0°, 121.5°, 238.5°, 241.0°, and 301.5°, as shown in Figure 4-1. These full-core positions correspond to the octant symmetric locations shown in Figures 6-2 and 6-3: 29.0° from the core cardinal axes (for the 61.0° and 241.0° capsules) and 31.5° from the core cardinal axes (for the 58.5°, 121.5°, 238.5°, and 301.5° capsules). The stainless steel specimen containers are 1.6-inch by 1.25-inch and are approximately 56 inches in height. The containers are positioned axially such that the test specimens are centered on the core midplane, thus spanning the approximate central 5 feet of the 12-foot-high reactor core. From a neutronic standpoint, the surveillance capsules and associated support structures are significant. The presence of these materials has a significant effect on both the spatial distribution of neutron fluence rate and the neutron spectrum in the vicinity of the capsules. However, the capsules are far enough apart that they do not interfere with one another. In order to determine the neutron environment at the test specimen location, the capsules themselves must be included in the analytical model. In performing the fast neutron exposure evaluations for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel and surveillance capsules, a series of fuel-cycle-specific forward transport calculations were carried out using a three-dimensional geometrical reactor model. For the Callaway Unit 1 transport calculations, the r, ,z models depicted (given as r, plan view) in Figures 6-1 (12.5° neutron pad configuration), 6-2 (20.0° neutron pad configuration), and 6-3 (22.5° neutron pad configuration) were utilized since, with the exception of the neutron pads, capsules, and associated support structures, the reactor is octant symmetric. The r,z section view depicted in Figure 6-4 shows the model having an axial span from an elevation approximately 6 feet below the bottom of the active fuel to 5 feet above the top of the active fuel. These r,,z models include the core, the reactor internals, the neutron pads including explicit representations of octants not containing surveillance capsules and octants with surveillance capsules at 29° and/or 31.5°, the pressure vessel cladding and vessel wall, the insulation external to the pressure vessel, and the primary biological shield wall. These models formed the basis for the calculated results and enabled making comparisons to the surveillance capsule dosimetry evaluations. In developing these analytical models, nominal design dimensions were employed for the various structural components with one exception; the minimum pressure vessel thickness was used. Water temperatures, and hence, coolant densities in the reactor core and downcomer regions of the reactor were taken to be representative of full-power operating conditions. The coolant densities were treated on a fuel-cycle-specific basis. The reactor core itself was treated as a homogeneous mixture of fuel, cladding, water, and miscellaneous core structures such as fuel assembly grids, guide tubes, et cetera. The geometric mesh description of the r,,z reactor models for the 20.0° and 22.5° neutron pad configurations consisted of 183 radial, 110 azimuthal, and 206 axial intervals. The geometric mesh description of the r,,z reactor model for the 12.5° neutron pad configuration consisted of 183 radial, 110 azimuthal, and 204 axial intervals. Mesh sizes were chosen to ensure that proper convergence of the inner iterations was achieved on a pointwise basis. The pointwise inner iteration fluence rate convergence criterion utilized in the r,,z calculations was set at a value of 0.001. The core power distributions used in the plant-specific transport analysis for each of the first 20 fuel cycles at Callaway Unit 1 included cycle-dependent fuel assembly initial enrichments, burnups, and axial Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 power distributions. This information was used to develop spatial- and energy-dependent core source distributions averaged over each individual fuel cycle. Therefore, the results from the neutron transport calculations provided data in terms of fuel-cycle-averaged neutron fluence rate, which when multiplied by the appropriate fuel cycle length, generated the incremental fast neutron exposure for each fuel cycle. In constructing these core source distributions, the energy distribution of the source was based on an appropriate fission split for uranium and plutonium isotopes based on the initial enrichment and burnup history of individual fuel assemblies. From these assembly-dependent fission splits, composite values of energy release per fission, neutron yield per fission, and fission spectrum were determined. All of the transport calculations supporting this analysis were carried out using the RAPTOR-M3G discrete ordinates code [Ref. 22] and the BUGLE-96 cross-section library [Ref. 23]. The BUGLE-96 library provides a coupled 47-neutron, 20-gamma-group cross-section data set produced specifically for light-water reactor (LWR) applications. In these analyses, anisotropic scattering was treated with a P 5 Legendre expansion, and angular discretization was modeled with an S 16 order of angular quadrature. Energy- and space-dependent core power distributions, as well as system operating temperatures, were treated on a fuel-cycle-specific basis. Selected results from the neutron transport analyses are provided in Tables 6-1 through 6-12. In Tables 6-1 and 6-2, the calculated exposure rates and integral exposures expressed in terms of fast neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV), respectively, are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions, i.e., for the 29.0° and 31.5° dual capsule holder locations and 31.5° single capsule holder location. In Tables 6-3 and 6-4, the calculated exposure rates and integral exposures expressed in terms of iron atom displacement rate (dpa/s) and iron atom displacements (dpa), respectively, are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions, i.e., for the 29.0° and 31.5° dual capsule holder locations and 31.5° single capsule holder location. In Tables 6-2 and 6-4, the calculated integral exposures expressed for future projections, in terms of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacements, respectively, are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions. These results, representative of the average axial exposure of the material specimens, establish the calculated exposure of the surveillance capsules withdrawn to date as well as projections into the future. Similar information, in terms of calculated fast neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV), fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV), dpa/s, and dpa, are provided in Tables 6-5 through 6-8, for the reactor vessel inner radius at four azimuthal locations, as well as the maximum exposure observed within the octant. The vessel data given in Tables 6-5 through 6-8 were taken at the clad/base metal interface and represent maximum calculated exposure levels on the vessel. From the data provided in Table 6-6, it is noted that the peak clad/base metal interface vessel fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) at the end of the 20 th fuel cycle (i.e., after 25.75 EFPY of plant operation) was 1.49E+19 n/cm
- 2. These data tabulations include both plant- and fuel-cycle-specific calculated neutron exposures at the end of the 20 th fuel cycle, as well as future projections to 32, 35, 40, 48, 54, and 60 EFPY. The calculations account for the uprate from 3411 MWt to 3565 MWt that occurred prior to Cycle 3. The projections are based on the assumption that the core power distributions and associated plant operating characteristics from Cycle 21 is representative of future plant operation. The future projections are based on the current reactor power level of 3565 MWt.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-4 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The calculated fast neutron exposures for the six surveillance capsules withdrawn from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor are provided in Table 6-9. These neutron exposure levels are based on the plant- and fuel-cycle-specific neutron transport calculations performed for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor. From the data provided in Table 6-9, Capsule W received a fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) of 5.98E+19 n/cm 2 after exposure through the end of the 20 th fuel cycle (i.e., after 25.75 EFPY). Updated lead factors for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsules are provided in Table 6-10. The capsule lead factor is defined as the ratio of the calculated fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) at the geometric radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule to the corresponding maximum calculated fluence at the pressure vessel clad/base metal interface. In Table 6-10, the lead factors for capsules that have been withdrawn from the reactor (Capsules U, Y, V, X, Z, and W) were based on the calculated fluence values for the irradiation period corresponding to the time of withdrawal for the individual capsules. Table 6-11 presents the maximum fast neutron fluences (E > 1.0 MeV) and Table 6-12 presents the maximum dpa for pressure vessel materials.
6.3 NEUTRON DOSIMETRY The validity of the calculated neutron exposures previously reported in Section 6.2 is demonstrated by a direct comparison against the measured sensor reaction rates and via a least-squares evaluation performed for each of the capsule dosimetry sets. However, since the neutron dosimetry measurement data merely serve to validate the calculated results, only the direct comparison of measured-to-calculated results for the most recent surveillance capsule removed from service is provided in this section of the report. For completeness, the assessment of all measured dosimetry removed to date, based on both direct and least-squares evaluation comparisons is documented in Appendix A. The direct comparison of measured versus calculated fast neutron threshold reaction rates for the sensors from Capsule W, which was withdrawn from Callaway Unit 1 at the end of the 20 th fuel cycle, is summarized below.

This direct comparison falls within the 20% criterion specified in Regulatory Guide 1.190. This comparison validates the current analytical results described in Section 6.2; therefore, the calculations are deemed applicable for Callaway Unit 1.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-5 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 6.4 CALCULATIONAL UNCERTAINTIES The uncertainty associated with the calculated neutron exposure of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsule and reactor pressure vessel is based on the recommended approach provided in Regulatory Guide 1.190. In particular, the qualification of the methodology was carried out in the following four stages: 1. Comparison of calculations with benchmark measurements from the Pool Critical Assembly (PCA) simulator at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).
- 2. Comparisons of calculations with surveillance capsule and reactor cavity measurements from the H. B. Robinson power reac tor benchmark experiment.
- 3. An analytical sensitivity study addressing the uncertainty components resulting from important input parameters applicable to the plant-specific transport calculations used in the neutron exposure assessments.
- 4. Comparisons of the plant-specific calculations with all available dosimetry results from the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program. The first phase of the methods qualification (PCA comparisons) addressed the adequacy of basic transport calculation and dosimetry evaluation techniques and associated cross-sections. This phase, however, did not test the accuracy of commercial core neutron source calculations nor did it address uncertainties in operational or geometric variables that impact power reactor calculations. The second phase of the qualification (H. B. Robinson comparisons) addressed uncertainties in these additional areas that are primarily methods-related and would tend to apply generically to all fast neutron exposure evaluations. The third phase of the qualification (analytical sensitivity study) identified the potential uncertainties introduced into the overall evaluation due to calculational methods approximations, as well as to a lack of knowledge relative to various plant-specific input parameters. The overall calculational uncertainty applicable to the Callaway Unit 1 analysis was established from results of these three phases of the methods qualification. The fourth phase of the uncertainty assessment (comparisons with Callaway Unit 1 measurements) was used solely to demonstrate the validity of the transport calculations and to confirm the uncertainty estimates associated with the analytical results. The comparison was used only as a check and was not used in any way to modify the calculated surveillance capsule and pressure vessel neutron exposures previously described in Section 6.2. As such, the validation of the Callaway Unit 1 analytical model based on the measured plant dosimetry is completely described in Appendix A. The following summarizes the uncertainties developed from the first three phases of the methodology qualification. Additional information pertinent to these evaluations is provided in Reference 22.

Robinson Comparisons 3% Analytical Sensitivity Studies 11% Additional Uncertainty for Factors not Explicitly 5% Net Calculational Uncertainty 13% The net calculational uncertainty was determined by combining the individual components in quadrature. Therefore, the resultant uncertainty was treated as random, and no systematic bias was applied to the analytical results. The plant-specific measurement comparisons described in Appendix A support these uncertainty assessments for Callaway Unit 1.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 APPENDIX A VALIDATION OF THE RADIATION TRANSPORT MODELS BASED ON NEUTRON DOSIMETRY MEASUREMENTS A.1 NEUTRON DOSIMETRY Comparisons of measured dosimetry results to both the calculated and least-squares adjusted values for all surveillance capsules withdrawn and analyzed to date at Callaway Unit 1 are described herein. The sensor sets from these capsules have been analyzed in accordance with the current dosimetry evaluation methodology described in Regulatory Guide 1.190, "Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence" [Ref. A-1]. One of the main purposes for presenting this material is to demonstrate that the overall measurements agree with the calculated and least-squares adjusted values to within 20% as specified by Regulatory Guide 1.190, thus serving to validate the calculated neutron exposures previously reported in Section 6.2 of this report.
A.1.1 Sensor Reaction Rate Determinations In this section, the results of the evaluations of the five surveillance capsules analyzed to date as part of the Callaway Unit 1 Reactor Vessel Materials Surveillance Program are presented. The capsule designation, location within the reactor, and time of withdrawal of each of these dosimetry sets were as follows: Capsule Azimuthal Location Withdrawal Time Irradiation Time (EFPY) 58.5º (Capsule U) End of Cycle 1 1.05 241° (Capsule Y) End of Cycle 4 4.70 61° (Capsule V) End of Cycle 8 9.94 238.5° (Capsule X) End of Cycle 10 12.49 121.5° (Capsule W) End of Cycle 20 25.75 The passive neutron sensors included in the evaluations of surveillance Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W are summarized as follows:

The cobalt-aluminum and uranium monitors for this plant include both bare and cadmium-covered sensors. Pertinent physical and nuclear characteristics of the passive neutron sensors analyzed are listed in Table A-1 for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W. The use of passive monitors such as those listed above do not yield a direct measure of the energy-dependent neutron fluence rate at the point of interest. Rather, the activation or fission process is a measure of the integrated effect that the time- and energy-dependent neutron fluence rate has on the target material over the course of the irradiation period. An accurate assessment of the average neutron fluence rate level incident on the various monitors may be derived from the activation measurements only if the irradiation parameters are well known. In particular, the following variables are of interest: the measured specific activity of each monitor, the physical characteristics of each monitor, the operating history of the reactor, the energy response of each monitor, and the neutron energy spectrum at the monitor location. Results from the radiometric counting of the neutron sensors from Capsules U, Y, V, and X are documented in References A-2, A-3, A-4, and A-5, respectively. The radiometric counting of the sensors from Capsule W was carried out by Pace Analytical Services, Inc. The radiometric counting followed established ASTM procedures. The irradiation history of the reactor over the irradiation periods experienced by Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W was based on the monthly power generation of Callaway Unit 1 from initial reactor criticality through the end of the dosimetry evaluation period. For the sensor sets utilized in the surveillance capsules, the half-lives of the product isotopes are long enough that a monthly histogram describing reactor operation has proven to be an adequate representation for use in radioactive decay corrections for the reactions of interest in the exposure evaluations. The irradiation history applicable to Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W is given in Table A-2.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Having the measured specific activities, the physical characteristics of the sensors, and the operating history of the reactor, reaction rates referenced to full-power operation were determined from the following equation:
][e ]e-[1 C P P Y F N A R j d, j t-t-j ref j 0 where: R = Reaction rate averaged over the irradiation period and referenced to operation at a core power level of P ref (rps/nucleus). A = Measured specific activity (dps/g).
N 0 = Number of target element atoms per gram of sensor. F = Atom fraction of the target isotope in the target element. Y = Number of product atoms produced per reaction.
P j = Average core power level during irradiation period j (MW).
P ref = Maximum or reference power level of the reactor (MW).
C j = Calculated ratio of (E > 1.0 MeV) during irradiation period j to the time weighted average (E > 1.0 MeV) over the entire irradiation period. = Decay constant of the product isotope (1/sec).
t j = Length of irradiation period j (sec).
td,j = Decay time following irradiation period j (sec). The summation is carried out over the total number of monthly intervals comprising the irradiation period. In the equation describing the reaction rate calculation, the ratio [P j]/[P ref] accounts for month-by-month variation of reactor core power level within any given fuel cycle as well as over multiple fuel cycles. The ratio C j, which was calculated for each fuel cycle using the transport methodology discussed in Section 6.2, accounts for the change in sensor reaction rates caused by variations in fluence rate level induced by changes in core spatial power distributions from fuel cycle to fuel cycle. For a single-cycle irradiation, C j is normally taken to be 1.0. However, for multiple-cycle irradiations, the additional C j term should be employed. The impact of changing fluence rate levels for constant po wer operation can be quite significant for sensor sets that have been irradiated for many cycles in a reactor that has transitioned from Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-4 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 non-low-leakage to low-leakage fuel management or for sensor sets contained in surveillance capsules that have been moved from one capsule location to another. The fuel-cycle-specific neutron fluence rates and the computed values for C j are listed in Tables A-3 and A-4, respectively, for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W. These fluence rates represent the capsule- and cycle-dependent results at the radial and azimuthal center of the respective capsules at core midplane. Prior to using the measured reaction rates in the least-squares evaluations of the dosimetry sensor sets, additional corrections were made to the 238U cadmium-covered measurements to account for the presence of 235U impurities in the sensors, as well as to adjust for the build-in of plutonium isotopes over the course of the irradiation. Corrections were also made to the 238 U and 237Np sensor reaction rates to account for gamma-ray-induced fission reactions that occurred over the course of the capsule irradiations. The correction factors corresponding to the Callaway Unit 1 fission sensor reaction rates are summarized as follows: Correction Capsule UCapsule Y Capsule VCapsule X Capsule W235U Impurity/Pu Build-in 0.8720 0.8385 0.7989 0.7737 0.6840 238 U( ,f) 0.9652 0.9662 0.9665 0.9659 0.9689 Net 238U Correction 0.8417 0.8102 0.7721 0.7473 0.6627 238 Np( ,f) Correction 0.9900 0.9902 0.9903 0.9901 0.9910 The correction factors for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W, were applied in a multiplicative fashion to the decay-corrected cadmium-covered uranium fission sensor reaction rates. Results of the sensor reaction rate determinations for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W, are given in Tables A-5 through A-9. In Tables A-5 through A-9, the measured specific activities, decay-corrected saturated specific activities, and computed reaction rates for each sensor are listed. The cadmium-covered fission sensor reaction rates are listed both with and without the applied corrections for 235U impurities, plutonium build-in, and gamma-ray-induced fission effects.
A.1.2 Least-Squares Evaluation of Sensor Sets Least-squares adjustment methods provide the capability of combining the measurement data with the corresponding neutron transport calculations resulting in a best-estimate neutron energy spectrum with associated uncertainties. Best-estimates for key exposure parameters such as fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) or dpa/s along with their uncertainties are then easily obtained from the adjusted spectrum. In general, the least-squares methods, as applied to surveillance capsule dosimetry evaluations, act to reconcile the measured sensor reaction rate data, dosimetry reaction cross-sections, and the calculated neutron energy spectrum within their respective uncertainties. For example, ))((R g ig i g g ig R i Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-5 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 relates a set of measured reaction rates, R i, to a single neutron spectrum, g, through the multigroup dosimeter reaction cross-sections, ig, each with an uncertainty . The primary objective of the least-squares evaluation is to produce unbiased estimates of the neutron exposure parameters at the location of the measurement. For the least-squares evaluation of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsule dosimetry, the FERRET code [Ref. A-6] was employed to combine the results of the plant-specific neutron transport calculations and sensor set reaction rate measurements to determine best-estimate values of exposure parameters (fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa) along with associated uncertainties for the five in-vessel capsules analyzed to date. The application of the least-squares methodology requires the following input:
- 1. The calculated neutron energy spectrum and associated uncertainties at the measurement location.
- 2. The measured reaction rates and associated uncertainty for each sensor contained in the multiple foil set.
- 3. The energy-dependent dosimetry reaction cross-sections and associated uncertainties for each sensor contained in the multiple foil sensor set. For the Callaway Unit 1 application, the calculated neutron spectrum was obtained from the results of plant-specific neutron transport calculations described in Section 6.2 of this report. The sensor reaction rates were derived from the measured specific activities using the procedures described in Section A.1.1. The dosimetry reaction cross-sections and uncertainties were obtained from the SNLRML dosimetry cross-section library
[Ref. A-7]. The uncertainties associated with the measured reaction rates, dosimetry cross-sections, and calculated neutron spectrum were input to the least-squares procedure in the form of variances and covariances. The assignment of the input uncertainties followed the guidance provided in ASTM Standard E944, "Standard Guide for Application of Neutron Spectrum Adjustment Methods in Reactor Surveillance" [Ref. A-8]. The following provides a summary of the uncertainties associated with the least-squares evaluation of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsule sensor sets. Reaction Rate Uncertainties The overall uncertainty associated with the measured reaction rates includes components due to the basic measurement process, irradiation history corrections, and corrections for competing reactions. A high level of accuracy in the reaction rate determinations is ensured by utilizing laboratory procedures that conform to the ASTM National Consensus Standards for reaction rate determinations for each sensor type. After combining all of these uncertainty components, the sensor reaction rates derived from the counting and data evaluation procedures were assigned the following net uncertainties for input to the least-squares evaluation:
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-6 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Reaction Uncertainty 63 Cu(n,)60Co 5% 54Fe(n,p)54Mn 5% 58 Ni(n,p)58Co 5% 238U(n,f)FP 10% 237Np(n,f)FP 10%
59 Co(n,)60 Co 5% These uncertainties are given at the 1 level. Dosimetry Cross-Section Uncertainties The reaction rate cross-sections used in the least-squares evaluations were taken from the SNLRML library. This data library provides reaction cross-sections and associated uncertainties, including covariances, for 66 dosimetry sensors in common use. Both cross-sections and uncertainties are provided in a fine multigroup structure for use in least-squares adjustment applications. These cross-sections were compiled from recent cross-section evaluations, and they have been tested for accuracy and consistency for least-squares evaluations. Further, the library has been empirically tested for use in fission spectra determination, as well as in the fluence and energy characterization of 14 MeV neutron sources. For sensors included in the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program, the following uncertainties in the fission spectrum averaged cross-sections are provided in the SNLRML documentation package. Reaction Uncertainty 63 Cu(n,)60Co 4.08-4.16%
54Fe(n,p)54Mn 3.05-3.11%
58 Ni(n,p)58Co 4.49-4.56% 238 U(n,f)137Cs 0.54-0.64% 237 Np(n,f)137Cs 10.32-10.97%
59 Co(n,)60 Co 0.79-3.59% These tabulated ranges provide an indication of the dosimetry cross-section uncertainties associated with the sensor sets used in LWR irradiations.
Calculated Neutron Spectrum The neutron spectra inputs to the least-squares adjustment procedure were obtained directly from the results of plant-specific transport calculations for each surveillance capsule irradiation period and location. The spectrum for each capsule was input in an absolute sense (rather than as simply a relative Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-7 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 spectral shape). Therefore, within the constraints of the assigned uncertainties, the calculated data were treated equally with the measurements. While the uncertainties associated with the reaction rates were obtained from the measurement procedures and counting benchmarks and the dosimetry cross-section uncertainties were supplied directly with the SNLRML library, the uncertainty matrix for the calculated spectrum was constructed from the following relationship:
gg'g'g 2 n gg'P*R*R R M where R n specifies an overall fractional normalization uncertainty and the fractional uncertainties R g and R g' specify additional random groupwise uncertainties that are correlated with a correlation matrix given by:
e + ]-[1 = P-H g g g g where 2 2 2)g'(g H The first term in the correlation matrix equation specifies purely random uncertainties, while the second term describes the short-range correlations over a group range ( specifies the strength of the latter term). The value of is 1.0 when g = g, and is 0.0 otherwise. The set of parameters defining the input covariance matrix for the Callaway Unit 1 calculated spectra was as follows: Fluence Rate Normalization Uncertainty (R n) 15% Fluence Rate Group Uncertainties (R g , R g') (E > 0.0055 MeV) 15%
(0.68 eV < E < 0.0055 MeV) 25% (E < 0.68 eV) 50% Short Range Correlation () (E > 0.0055 MeV) 0.9 (0.68 eV < E < 0.0055 MeV) 0.5 (E < 0.68 eV) 0.5 Fluence Rate Group Correlation Range () (E > 0.0055 MeV) 6 (0.68 eV < E < 0.0055 MeV) 3 (E < 0.68 eV) 2 Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-8 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 A.1.3 Comparisons of Measurements and Calculations Results of the least-squares evaluations of the dosimetry from the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsules withdrawn to date are provided in Tables A-10, A-11, A-12, A-13, and A-14 for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W, respectively. In these tables, measured, calculated, and best-estimate values for sensor reaction rates are given for each capsule. Also provided in these tabulations are ratios of the measured reaction rates to both the calculated and least-squares adjusted reaction rates. These ratios of M/C and M/BE illustrate the consistency of the fit of the calculated neutron energy spectra to the measured reaction rates both before and after adjustment. Additionally, comparisons of the calculated and best-estimate values of neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacement rate are tabulated along with the BE/C ratios observed for each of the capsules. Note that for Capsule X, the cadmium-covered uranium monitor was discarded because it was outside the expected values. The data comparisons provided in Tables A-10 through A-14 show that the adjustments to the calculated spectra are relatively small and within the assigne d uncertainties for the calculated spectra, measured sensor reaction rates, and dosimetry reaction cross-sections. Further, these results indicate that the use of the least-squares evaluation results in a reduction in the uncertainties associated with the exposure of the surveillance capsules. From Section 6.4 of this report, the calculational uncertainty is specified as 13% at the 1 level. Further comparisons of the measurement results with calculations are given in Tables A-15 and A-16. These comparisons are given on two levels. In Table A-15, calculations of individual threshold sensor reaction rates are compared directly with the corresponding measurements. These threshold reaction rate comparisons provide a good evaluation of the accuracy of the fast neutron portion of the calculated energy spectra. In Table A-16, calculations of fast neutron exposure rates in terms of fast neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa/s are compared with the best-estimate results obtained from the least-squares evaluation of the capsule dosimetry results. These two levels of comparison yield consistent and similar results with all measurement-to-calculation comparisons falling within the 20% limits specified as the acceptance criteria in Regulatory Guide 1.190. In the case of the direct comparison of measured and calculated sensor reaction rates, for the individual threshold foils considered in the least-squares analysis, the average M/C comparisons for fast neutron reactions range from 1.00 to 1.17 in the data set. The overall average M/C ratio for the entire set of Callaway Unit 1 data is 1.07 with an associated standard deviation of 7.9%. In the comparisons of best-estimate and calculated fast neutron exposure parameters, the corresponding BE/C comparisons for the capsule data sets range from 0.94 to 1.10 for neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and from 0.95 to 1.09 for iron atom displacement rate. The overall average BE/C ratios for neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacement rate are 1.02 with a standard deviation of 5.9% and 1.02 with a standard deviation of 5.2%, respectively. Based on these comparisons, it is concluded that the calculated fast neutron exposures provided in Section 6.2 of this report are validated for use in the assessment of the condition of the materials comprising the beltline region of the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel.

A-9].

The definition for USE is given in ASTM E185-82 [Ref. C-1], Section 4.18, and reads as follows:
"upper shelf energy level - the average energy value for all Charpy specimens (normally three) whose test temperature is above the upper end of the transition region. For specimens tested in sets of three at each test temperature, the set having the highest average may be regarded as defining the upper shelf energy." Westinghouse reports the average of all Charpy data ( 95% shear) as the USE, excluding any values that are deemed outliers using engineering judgment. Hence, the Capsule W USE values reported in Table C-1 were determined by applying this methodology to the Charpy data tabulated in Tables 5-1 through 5-4 of this report. USE values documented in Table C-1 for the unirradiated material, as well as Capsules U, Y, V and X were also determined by applying the methodology described above to the Charpy impact data reported in WCAP-9842, Revision 0 [Ref. C-2], WCAP-11374, Revision 1 [Ref. C-3], WCAP-12946, Revision 0 [Ref. C-4], WCAP-14895, Revision 0 [Ref. C-5] and WCAP-15400, Revision 0 [Ref. C-6]. Three data points differ from those previously reported, due to the inclusion of all Charpy data ( 95% shear) as the USE: Unirradiated material (weld material), Capsule U (lower shell plate material, longitudinal direction) and Capsule V (HAZ material). The USE values reported in Table C-1 were used in generation of the Charpy V-notch curves. The lower-shelf energy values were fixed at 2.2 ft-lb for all cases. The lower-shelf lateral expansion (L.E.) values were fixed at 1.0 mils in order to be consistent with the previous capsule analysis [Ref. C-6]. Upper-shelf L.E. is not typically fixed in CVGRAPH; however, due to an inaccurate curve fit, the upper shelf L.E. value will be fixed in a summary plot, as documented in Section 5 of this report, for the T-L material in Capsule W. The individual L.E. plot for this material, as documented in this Appendix, will still allow the upper-shelf L.E. to float for comparison between the two methods. The fixed upper-shelf L.E. value was determined using the same Charpy V-notch test specimens that were used for the upper-shelf energy determination and is shown in Table C-2.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 APPENDIX D CALLAWAY UNIT 1 SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM CREDIBILITY EVALUATION D.1 INTRODUCTION Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. D-1] describes general procedures acceptable to the NRC staff for calculating the effects of neutron radiation embrittlement of the low-alloy steels currently used for light-water-cooled reactor vessels. Positions 2.1 and 2.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, describe the method for calculating the adjusted reference temperature and Charpy upper-shelf energy of reactor vessel beltline materials using surveillance capsule data. The methods of Positions 2.1 and 2.2 can only be applied when two or more credible surveillance data sets become available from the reactor in question. To date there have been five surveillance capsules removed and tested from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel. To use these surveillance data sets, they must be shown to be credible. In accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, the credibility of the surveillance data will be judged based on five criteria. The purpose of this evaluation is to apply the credibility requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, to the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel surveillance data and determine if that surveillance data is credible.
D.2 EVALUATION Criterion 1: Materials in the capsules should be those judged most likely to be controlling with regard to radiation embrittlement. The beltline region of the reactor vessel is defined in Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50, "Fracture Toughness Requirements" [Ref. D-2], as follows: "the region of the reactor vessel (shell material including welds, heat affected zones, and plates or forgings) that directly surrounds the effective height of the active core and adjacent regions of the reactor vessel that are predicted to experience sufficient neutron radiation damage to be considered in the selection of the most limiting material with regard to radiation damage."
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline region consists of the following materials:
- 1. Intermediate Shell Plates R2707-1, R2707-2 and R2707-3
- 2. Lower Shell Plates R2708-1, R2708-2 and R2708-3
- 3. Intermediate Shell to Lower Shell Circumferential Weld Seam 101-171 (Heat # 90077, Linde Flux Type 124)
- 4. Intermediate Shell Plate Longitudinal Weld Seams 101-124A, 101-124B and 101-124C (Heat # 90077, Linde Flux Type 0091)
- 5. Lower Shell Longitudinal Weld Seams 101-142A, 101-142B and 101-142C (Heat # 90077, Linde Flux Type 0091). Per WCAP-9842, Revision 0 [Ref. D-3], the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program was developed to the requirements of ASTM E185-73: "The base material and weld metal to be included in the program should represent the material that may limit the operation of the reactor during its lifetime. The test material should be selected on the basis of initial transition temperature, upper shelf energy level, and estimated increase in transition temperature considering chemical composition (copper (Cu) and phosphorus (P)) and neutron fluence." At the time of the surveillance program development, copper and phosphorus content were considered the most limiting factors in embrittlement of reactor vessel steels. Since all plate materials had approximately the same copper and phosphorus content, initial RT NDT and USE were considered to select the representative plate. The lower shell plate R2708-1 had the highest initial RT NDT and the second lowest USE energy. Thus, the lower shell plate R2708-1 was selected as the plate material for the surveillance program. Note that lower shell plate R2708-1 has the same material heat number as the lower shell plate R2708-3; therefore, surveillance credibility conclusions and subsequent Position 2.1 chemistry factor determinations and Position 2.2 percent USE reduction calculations apply to this plate material as well. The intermediate shell to lower shell circumferential weld seam, intermediate shell longitudinal weld seams and lower shell longitudinal weld seams all used the same weld material. This material was 3/16 inch Mil B-4 weld filler wire, heat number 90077. The surveillance weld material was also fabricated from this same heat of weld material. The intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld seam 101-171 was fabricated with Linde flux type 124, lot number 1061. The intermediate and lower shell longitudinal weld seams were fabricated with Linde flux type 0091, lot number 0842. The surveillance weld was fabricated with Linde flux type 124, lot number 1061. Thus, the surveillance material is representative of all the weld seams in the beltline region with respect to transition temperature shift, credibility conclusions and Position 2.1 chemistry factor determinations. However, it is only representative of the intermediate shell to lower shell circumferential weld with respect to Position 2.2 percent USE decrease evaluations because both the heat number and flux type (Linde 124) match for this weld material only. Based on the discussion above, Criterion 1 is met for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Criterion 2: Scatter in the plots of Charpy energy versus temperature for the irradiated and unirradiated conditions should be small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature and upper-shelf energy unambiguously. Based on engineering judgment, the scatter in the data presented in these plots, as documented in Appendix C of this report, is small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature and the upper-shelf energy of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance materials unambiguously. Hence, the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program meets this criterion.
Criterion 3: When there are two or more sets of surveillance data from one reactor, the scatter of RT NDT values about a best-fit line drawn as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 normally should be less than 28°F for welds and 17°F for base metal. Even if the fluence range is large (two or more orders of magnitude), the scatter should not exceed twice those values. Even if the data fail this criterion for use in shift calculations, they may be credible for determining decrease in upper-shelf energy if the upper shelf can be clearly determined, following the definition given in ASTM E185-82 [Ref. D-4].
The functional form of the least squares method as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 will be utilized to determine a best-fit line for this data and to determine if the scatter of these RT NDT values about this line is less than 28°F for welds and less than 17°F for the plate. Following is the calculation of the best-fit line as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. In addition, the recommended NRC methods for determining credibility will be followed. The NRC methods were presented to industry at a meeting held by the NRC on February 12 and 13, 1998 [Ref. D-5]. At this meeting, the NRC presented five cases. Of the five cases, Case 1 ("Surveillance data available from plant but no other source") most closely represents the situation for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate and weld material. Case 1: Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 and Weld Material Heat # 90077 Following the NRC Case 1 guidelines, the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate and weld metal will be evaluated using the Callaway Unit 1 data. This evaluation is contained in Table D-1. Note that when evaluating the credibility of the surveillance weld data, the measured RT NDT values for the surveillance weld material do not include the adjustment ratio procedure of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Position 2.1, since this calculation is based on the actual surveillance weld material measured shift values. In addition, only Callaway Unit 1 data is being considered; therefore, no temperature adjustment is required.

From a statistical point of view, +/- 1 would be expected to encompass 68% of the data. Table D-2 indicates that six of the ten surveillance data points fall inside the +/- 1 of 17F scatter band for surveillance base metals; therefore, the plate data is deemed "non-credible" per the third criterion. Table D-2 indicates that four of the five surveillance data points fall inside the +/- 1 of 28F scatter band for surveillance weld materials; therefore, the surveillance weld data is deemed "credible" per the third criterion.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-6 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Criterion 4: The irradiation temperature of the Charpy specimens in the capsule should match the vessel wall temperature at the cladding/base metal interface within +/- 25°F. The capsule specimens are located in the reactor between the neutron shielding pads and the vessel wall and are positioned opposite to the center of the core. The test capsules are located in guide tubes attached to the neutron shielding pads [Ref. D-3]. The location of the specimens with respect to the reactor vessel beltline provides assurance that the reactor vessel wall and the specimens experience equivalent operating conditions such that the temperatures will not differ by more than 25°F. Hence, Criterion 4 is met for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
Criterion 5: The surveillance data for the correlation monitor material in the capsule should fall within the scatter band of the database for that material. The Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program does not contain correlation monitor material. Therefore, this criterion is not applicable to Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
Hence, Criterion 5 is met for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
D.3 CONCLUSION Based on the preceding responses to all five criteria of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Section B:

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 E-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 APPENDIX E CALLAWAY UNIT 1 UPPER-SHELF ENERGY EVALUATION E.1 EVALUATION Per Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. E-1], the Charpy upper-shelf energy (USE) is assumed to decrease as a function of fluence and copper content as indicated in Figure 2 of the Guide (Figure E-1 of this appendix) when surveillance data is not used.
Linear interpolation is permitted. In addition, if surveillance data is to be used, the decrease in upper-shelf energy may be obtained by plotting the reduced plant surveillance data on Figure 2 of the Guide (Figure E-1 of this appendix) and fitting the data with a line drawn parallel to the existing lines as the upper bound of all the data. This line should be used in preference to the existing graph.
The 35 EFPY (end-of-license) and 54 EFPY (end-of-license renewal) upper-shelf energy of the vessel materials can be predicted using the corresponding 1/4T fluence projection, the copper content of the beltline materials and/or the results of the capsules tested to date using Figure 2 in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. The maximum vessel clad/base metal interface fluence value was used to determine the corresponding 1/4T fluence value at 35 EFPY and 54 EFPY for the beltline materials. Likewise, the peak extended beltline fluence values at 35 and 54 EFPY was used for the extended beltline materials. The Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline region minimum thickness is 8.63 inches. Calculation of the 1/4T vessel fluence values at 35 EFPY and 54 EFPY for the beltline and extended beltline materials are shown in Table E-1.

For the predicted USE decrease determinations, the base metal and weld Cu weight percentages were conservatively rounded up to the nearest higher line in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Figure 2, unless otherwise noted. (b) Calculated using surveillance capsule measured percent decrease in USE from Table 5-10 and Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Position 2.2; see Figure E-1. (c) Consistent with RIS 2014-1 [Ref. E-2], which established a formal NRC position on material inclusion and embrittlement requirements of extended beltline materials, the effects of neutron radiation must be considered for any locations that are predicted to experience a neutron fluence exposure greater than 1 x 10 17 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) at the end of the licensed operating period. Per Table 6-11 of this report, the inlet and outlet nozzle forging materials and the inlet and outlet nozzle to shell welds have a 54 EFPY fluence level below this threshold; therefore, percent USE reduction is not considered for these materials.
USE Conclusion As shown in Table E-2 and Table E-3, all of the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline materials and extended beltline materials are projected to remain above the USE screening criterion of 50 ft-lbs (per 10 CFR 50, Appendix G) at 35 EPFY and 54 EFPY.

SUMMARY
The purpose of this report is to document the testing results of surveillance Capsule W from Callaway Unit 1. Capsule W was removed at 25.75 Effective Full Power Years (EFPY) and post-irradiation mechanical tests of the Charpy V-notch and tensile specimens were performed. A fluence evaluation utilizing the neutron transport and dosimetry cross-section libraries was derived from the ENDF/B-VI database. Capsule W received a fluence of 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) after irradiation to 25.75 EFPY. The peak clad/base metal interface vessel fluence after 25.75 EFPY of plant operation was 1.49 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV). This evaluation led to the following conclusions: 1) The measured percent decreases in upper-shelf energy for the surveillance plate (longitudinal and tr ansverse orientations) and weld materials contained in Callaway Unit 1 Capsule W are less than the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] predictions. 2) The Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate is judged to be non-credible and the surveillance weld (Heat # 90077) is judged to be credible. This credibility evaluation can be found in Appendix D. 3) With consideration of surveillance data, all beltline and extended beltline materials exhibit adequate upper-shelf energy levels for continued safe plant operation and are predicted to maintain an upper-shelf energy greater than 50 ft-lb through end-of-license (35 EFPY) and end-of-license renewal (54 EFPY) as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G [Ref. 2]. The upper-she lf energy evaluation is presented in Appendix E. Lastly, a brief summary of the Charpy V-notch testing can be found in Section 1. All Charpy V-notch data was plotted using a symmetric hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program.

SUMMARY
OF RESULTS The analysis of the reactor vessel materials contained in surveillance Capsule W, the fifth capsule removed and tested from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel, led to the following conclusions:
Charpy V-notch test data were plotted using a symmetric hyperbolic tangent curve-fitting program. Appendix C presents the CVGRAPH, Version 6.0, Charpy V-notch plots for Capsule W and previous capsules, along with the program input data.
Capsule W received an average fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) of 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 after 25.75 effective full power years (EFPY) of plant operation.
Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major working direction (longitudinal orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 55.9F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 92.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 58.6 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 69.1F for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major working direction (transverse orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 77.1F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 139.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 95.2F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 111.2F for the transversely oriented specimens. Irradiation of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 12.8F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 42.0F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 65.8 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 60.7 F. Irradiation of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) Material Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of -8.6F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 30.6 F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 91.6F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 84.3 F. The average upper-shelf energy (USE) of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 9 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 117 ft-lb for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 21 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 83 ft-lb for the transversely oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 4 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 103 ft-lb for the weld metal specimens.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 1-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The average upper-shelf energy of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 5 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 101 ft-lb for the HAZ Material.
Comparisons of the measured 30 ft-lb shift in transition temperature values and upper-shelf energy decreases to those predicted by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel surveillance materials are presented in Table 5-10.
Based on the credibility evaluation presented in Appendix D, the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate is non-credible and the surveillance weld material (Heat # 90077) is credible.
Based on the upper-shelf energy evaluation in Appendix E, all beltline and extended beltline materials contained in the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel exhibit adequate upper-shelf energy levels for continued safe plant operation and are predicted to maintain an upper-shelf energy greater than 50 ft-lb through end-of-license (35 EFPY) and end-of-license renewal (54 EFPY) as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G [Ref. 2].
The maximum calculated 54 EFPY (end-of-license renewal) neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline using the Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 attenuation formula (i.e., Equation #3 in the Guide) is as follows:
Calculated (54 EFPY): Vessel clad/base metal interface fluence* = 2.91 x 10 19 n/cm 2 Vessel 1/4 thickness fluence = 1.73 x 10 19 n/cm 2 *This fluence value is documented in Table 6-6.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 2-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 2 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of the examination of Capsule W, the fifth capsule removed and tested in the continuing surveillance program, which monitors the effects of neutron irradiation on the Ameren Missouri Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel materials under actual operating conditions.
The surveillance program for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel materials was designed and recommended by the Westinghouse Electric Company. A description of the surveillance program and the pre-irradiation mechanical properties of the reactor vessel materials are contained in WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3], "Union Electric Company Callaway Unit No. 1 Reactor Vessel Radiation Surveillance Program." The surveillance program was originally planned to cover the 40-year design life of the reactor pressure vessel and was based on ASTM E185-73 [Ref. 4], "Standard Recommended Practice for Surveillance Tests for Nuclear Reactor Vessels."
Capsule W was removed from the reactor after 25.75 EFPY of exposure and shipped to the Westinghouse Materials Center of Excellence Hot Cell Facility, where the post-irradiation mechanical testing of the Charpy V-notch impact and tensile surveillance specimens was performed.
This report summarizes the testing and post-irradiation data obtained from surveillance Capsule W removed from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel and discusses the analysis of the data.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 3-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 3 BACKGROUND The ability of the large steel pressure vessel containing the reactor core and its primary coolant to resist fracture constitutes an important factor in ensuring safety in the nuclear industry. The beltline region of the reactor pressure vessel is the most critical region of the vessel because it is subjected to significant fast neutron bombardment. The overall effects of fast neutron irradiation on the mechanical properties of low-alloy, ferritic pressure vessel steels such as SA533 Grade B Class 1 (base material of the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel beltline) are well documented in the literature. Generally, low-alloy ferritic materials show an increase in hardness and tensile properties and a decrease in ductility and toughness during high-energy irradiation.
A method for ensuring the integrity of reactor pressure vessels has been presented in "Fracture Toughness Criteria for Protection Against Failure," Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code [Ref. 5]. The method uses fracture mechanics concepts and is based on the reference nil-ductility transition temperature (RTNDT).
RT NDT is defined as the greater of either the drop-weight nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT per ASTM E208 [Ref. 6]) or the temperature 60F less than the 50 ft-lb (and 35 mil lateral expansion) temperature as determined from Charpy specimens oriented perpendicular (transverse) to the major working direction of the plate. The RT NDT of a given material is used to index that material to a reference stress intensity factor curve (K Ic curve) which appears in Appendix G to Section XI of the ASME Code [Ref. 5]. The K Ic curve is a lower bound of static fracture toughness results obtained from several heats of pressure vessel steel. When a given material is indexed to the K Ic curve, allowable stress intensity factors can be obtained for this material as a function of temperature. Allowable operating limits can then be determined using these allowable stress intensity factors.
RT NDT and, in turn, the operating limits of nuclear power plants can be adjusted to account for the effects of radiation on the reactor vessel material properties. The changes in mechanical properties of a given reactor pressure vessel steel, due to irradiation, can be monitored by a reactor vessel surveillance program, such as the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel radiation surveillance program, in which a surveillance capsule is periodically removed from the operating nuclear reactor and the encapsulated specimens are tested. The increase in the average Charpy V-notch 30 ft-lb temperature (RT NDT) due to irradiation is added to the initial RT NDT, along with a margin (M) to cover uncertainties, to adjust the RT NDT (ART) for radiation embrittlement. This ART (initial RT NDT + M + RT NDT) is used to index the material to the K Ic curve and, in turn, to set operating limits for the nuclear power plant that take into account the effects of irradiation on the reactor vessel materials.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 4-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 4 DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM Six surveillance capsules for monitoring the effects of neutron exposure on the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel core region (beltline) materials were inserted in the reactor vessel prior to initial plant startup. The six capsules were positioned in the reactor vessel, as shown in Figure 4-1, between the neutron shielding pads and the vessel wall, at various azimuthal locations. The vertical center of the capsules is opposite the vertical center of the core. The capsules contain specimens made from the following:
Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) Weld metal fabricated with weld wire Heat Number 90077, Linde Type 124 flux, Lot Number 1061, which is identical to that used in the actual fabrication of the intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld and is the equivalent heat number used in the actual fabrication of the intermediate shell and lower shell longitudinal weld seams; however, these vessel welds used Linde Type 0091 flux in their fabrication Weld heat affected zone (HAZ) material of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Test material obtained from the lower shell plate (after thermal heat treatment and forming of the plate) was taken at least one plate thickness from the quenched edges of the plate. All test specimens were machined from the 1/4 thickness location of the plate after performing a simulated post-weld stress relieving treatment on the test material. Test specimens were also removed from weld metal of a stress relieved weldment joining Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 and adjacent Intermediate Shell Plate R2707-1. All heat-affected zone specimens were obtained from the weld heat affected zone of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1. Charpy V-notch impact specimens from Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 were machined in the longitudinal orientation (longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major rolling direction) and also in the transverse orientation (longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major rolling direction). The core-region weld Charpy impact specimens were machined from the weldment such that the long dimension of each Charpy specimen was perpendicular (normal) to the weld direction. The notch of the weld metal Charpy specimens was machined such that the direction of crack propagation in the specimen was in the welding direction.
Tensile specimens from Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 were machined in both the longitudinal and transverse orientations. Tensile specimens from the weld metal were oriented perpendicular to the welding direction.
Compact Tension (CT) specimens from Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 were machined in both the longitudinal and transverse orientations. CT specimens from the weld metal were machined with the notch oriented in the direction of welding. All specimens were fatigue pre-cracked according to ASTM E399 [Ref. 7].
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 4-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 All six capsules contain dosimeter wires of pure iron, copper, nickel, and aluminum-0.15 weight percent cobalt (cadmium-shielded and unshielded). In addition, cadmium-shielded dosimeters of Neptunium (237Np) and Uranium (238U) were placed in the capsules to measure the integrated flux at specific neutron energy levels.
The capsules contain thermal monitors made from two low-melting-point eutectic alloys, which were sealed in Pyrex tubes. These thermal monitors were used to define the maximum temperature attained by the test specimens during irradiation. The composition of the two eutectic alloys and their melting points are as follows:
2.5% Ag, 97.5% Pb Melting Point: 579°F (304°C) 1.5% Ag, 1.0% Sn, 97.5% Pb Melting Point: 590°F (310°C)
The chemical composition and the heat treatment of the unirradiated surveillance materials in Capsule W are presented in Tables 4-1 and 4-2, respectively. The data in Tables 4-1 and 4-2 was obtained from the original surveillance program report, WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3].
Capsule W was removed after 25.75 effective full power years (EFPY) of plant operation. This capsule contained Charpy V-notch, tensile and compact tension specimens, dosimeters, and thermal monitors. Figures 4-1 and 4-2 detail the arrangement of the surveillance capsules in the reactor and the placement of specimens within Capsule W, respectively.

Testing was performed in accordance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix H [Ref. 2] and ASTM Specification E185-82 [Ref. 8]. Capsule W was opened upon receipt at the hot cell laboratory. The specimens and spacer blocks were carefully removed, inspected for identification number, and checked against the master list in WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3]. All of the items were in their proper locations. Examination of the thermal monitors indicated that 1 of the 3 temperature monitors had melted, as described below: Top Thermal Monitor, the 579
°F (304°C) was melted. Middle Thermal Monitor, the 590
°F (310°C) was not melted. Bottom Thermal Monitor, the 579
°F (304°C) was not melted. Based on this examination, the maximum temperature to which the specimens were exposed was less than 590°F (310°C), but greater than 579°F (304°C). The Charpy impact tests were performed per ASTM Specification E185-82 [Ref. 8] and E23-12c [Ref. 9] on a Tinius-Olsen Model 74, 358J machine. The Charpy machine striker was instrumented with an Instron Impulse system. Instrumented testing and calibration were performed to ASTM E2298-13a [Ref. 10].
The instrumented striker load signal data acquisition rate was 819 kHz with data acquired for 10 ms. From the load-time curve, the load of general yielding (F gy), the maximum load (F m) and the time to maximum load were determined. Under some test conditions, a sharp drop in load indicative of fast fracture was observed. The load at which fast fracture was initiated is identified as the brittle fracture load (F bf). The termination load after the fast load drop is identified as the arrest load (F a). F gy , F m , F bf , and F a were determined per the guidance in ASTM Standard E2298-13a [Ref. 10].
The energy at maximum load (W m) was determined by integrating the load-time record to the maximum load point. The energy at maximum load is approximately equivalent to the energy required to initiate a crack in the specimen. Therefore, the propagation energy for the crack (W P) is the difference between the total energy (W t) and the energy at maximum load (W m). W t is compared to the dial energy (KV). W t derived from the instrumented striker were all within 15% of the calibrated dial energy values as required in ASTM E2298-13a [Ref. 10].
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Percent shear was determined from post-fracture photographs using the ratio-of-areas method in compliance with ASTM E23-12c [Ref. 9] and A370-13 [Ref. 11]. The lateral expansion was measured using a dial gage rig similar to that shown in the same specifications. Tensile tests were performed on a 250 KN Instron screw driven tensile machine (Model 5985) per ASTM E185-82 [Ref. 8]. Testing met ASTM Specifications E8/E8M-13a [Ref. 12] or E21-09 [Ref. 13]. Load was applied through a clevis and pin connection. The strain rate obtained met the requirements of ASTM E8/E8M-13a [Ref. 12] and ASTM E21-09 [Ref. 13].
Elevated test temperatures were obtained with a three-zone electric resistance split-tube furnace with a 11-inch hot zone. Tensile specimens were soaked at temperature (+/-5ºF) for a minimum of 20 minutes before testing. All tests were conducted in air.
The tensile specimens were, nominally, 4.230 inches long with a 1.00 inch gage section and a reduced section of 1.50 inches long by 0.250 inch in diameter, as documented in Figure 2-2 of WCAP-9842 [Ref.
3]. The yield load, ultimate load, fracture load, uniform elongation and elongation at fracture were determined directly from the load-extension curve. The yield strength (0.2% offset method), ultimate tensile strength and fracture strength were calculated using the original cross-sectional area. Yield point elongation (YPE) was calculated as the difference in strain between the upper yield strength and the onset of uniform strain hardening using the methodology described in E8/E8M-13a [Ref. 12]. The final diameter and final gage length were determined from post-fracture photographs. This final diameter measurement was used to calculate the fracture stress (true stress at fracture) and the percent reduction in area. The final and original gage lengths were used to calculate total elongation after fracture.
5.2 CHARPY V-NOTCH IMPACT TEST RESULTS The results of the Charpy V-notch impact tests performed on the various materials contained in Capsule W, which received a fluence of 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) in 25.75 EFPY of operation, are presented in Tables 5-1 through 5-8 and are compared with the unirradiated and previously withdrawn capsule results as shown in Figures 5-1 through 5-12. The unirradiated and previously withdrawn capsule results were taken from WCAP-9842 [Ref. 3], WCAP-11374 [Ref. 14], WCAP-12946 [Ref. 15], WCAP-14895 [Ref. 16] and WCAP-15400 [Ref. 17]. The previous capsules, along with the original program unirradiated material input data, were updated using CVGRAPH, Version 6.0. This accounts for the differences in measured values of 30 ft-lb and 50 ft-lb transition temperature between the results documented in this report and those shown in prior Callaway Unit 1 capsule reports.
The transition temperature increases and changes in upper-shelf energies for the Capsule W materials are summarized in Table 5-9 and led to the following results:
Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen parallel to the major working direction (longitudinal orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 55.9F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 92.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 58.6 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 69.1F for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Irradiation of the reactor vessel Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 Charpy specimens, oriented with the longitudinal axis of the specimen perpendicular to the major working direction (transverse orientation), resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 77.1F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 139.3F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 95.2F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 111.2F for the transversely oriented specimens. Irradiation of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of 12.8F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 42.0F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 65.8 F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 60.7 F. Irradiation of the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) Material Charpy specimens resulted in an irradiated 30 ft-lb transition temperature of -8.6F and an irradiated 50 ft-lb transition temperature of 30.6 F. This results in a 30 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 91.6F and a 50 ft-lb transition temperature increase of 84.3 F. The irradiated upper-shelf energy of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 9 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 117 ft-lb for the longitudinally oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) resulted in an average energy decrease of 21 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 83 ft-lb for the transversely oriented specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat #90077) Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 4 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 103 ft-lb for the weld metal specimens.
The average upper-shelf energy of the HAZ Material Charpy specimens resulted in an average energy decrease of 5 ft-lb after irradiation. This results in an irradiated average upper-shelf energy of 101 ft-lb for the HAZ Material.
Comparisons of the measured 30 ft-lb shift in transition temperature values and upper-shelf energy decreases to those predicted by Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. 1] for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel surveillance materials are presented in Table 5-10.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 5-4 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The fracture appearance of each irradiated Charpy specimen from the various materials is shown in Figures 5-13 through 5-16. The fractures show an increasingly ductile or tougher appearance with increasing test temperature. Load-time records for the individual instrumented Charpy specimens are contained in Appendix B.
With consideration of the surveillance data, all beltline materials exhibit adequate upper-shelf energy levels for continued safe plant operation and are predicted to maintain an upper-shelf energy greater than 50 ft-lb through end-of-license (35 EFPY) and end-of-license renewal (54 EFPY) as required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix G [Ref. 2]. This evaluation can be found in Appendix E.
5.3 TENSILE TEST RESULTS The results of the tensile tests performed on the various materials contained in Capsule W irradiated to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) are presented in Table 5-11 and are compared with unirradiated results as shown in Figures 5-17 through 5-19. The results of the tensile tests performed on the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) indicated that irradiation to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) caused increases in the 0.2 percent offset yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength when compared to unirradiated data [Ref. 3]. See Figure 5-17 and Table 5-11. The results of the tensile tests performed on the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) indicated that irradiation to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) caused increases in the 0.2 percent offset yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength when compared to unirradiated data [Ref. 3]. See Figure 5-18 and Table 5-11. The results of the tensile tests performed on the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) indicated that irradiation to 5.98 x 10 19 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) caused increases in the 0.2 percent offset yield strength and the ultimate tensile strength when compared to unirradiated data [Ref. 3]. See Figure 5-19 and Table 5-11. The fractured tensile specimens for the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (longitudinal orientation) material are shown in Figure 5-20; the fractured tensile specimens for the Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 (transverse orientation) material are shown in Figure 5-21; the fractured tensile specimens for the Surveillance Program Weld Metal (Heat # 90077) are shown in Figure 5-22.

6.1 INTRODUCTION
This section describes a discrete ordinates (S n) transport analysis performed for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor to determine the neutron radiation environment within the reactor pressure vessel and surveillance capsules. In this analysis, fast neutron exposure parameters in terms of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacements (dpa) were established on a plant- and fuel-cycle-specific basis. An evaluation of the most recent dosimetry sensor set from Capsule W, withdrawn at the end of the 20 th plant operating cycle, is provided. In addition, the sensor sets from the previously withdrawn and analyzed capsules (U, Y, V, and X) were re-analyzed and are presented. Comparisons of the results from these dosimetry evaluations with the analytical predictions served to validate the plant-specific neutron transport calculations. These validated calculations subsequently form the basis for projections of the neutron exposure of the reactor pressure vessel for operating periods extending to 60 effective full-power years (EFPY) at 3565 MWt. The use of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to correlate measured material property changes to the neutron exposure of the material has traditionally been accepted for the development of damage trend curves as well as for the implementation of trend curve data to assess the condition of the vessel. However, in recent years, it has been suggested that an exposure model that accounts for differences in neutron energy spectra between surveillance capsule locations and positions within the vessel wall could lead to an improvement in the uncertainties associated with damage trend curves and improved accuracy in the evaluation of damage gradients through the reactor vessel wall. Because of this potential shift away from a threshold fluence toward an energy-dependent damage function for data correlation, ASTM Standard Practice E853-13, "Standard Practice for Analysis and Interpretation of Light-Water Reactor Surveillance Results," [Ref. 18] recommends reporting displacements per iron atom (dpa) along with fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) to provid e a database for future reference. The energy-dependent dpa function to be used for this evaluation is specified in ASTM Standard Practice E693-94, "Standard Practice for Characterizing Neutron Exposures in Iron and Low Alloy Steels in Terms of Displacements per Atom" [Ref. 19]. The application of the dpa parameter to the assessment of embrittlement gradients through the thickness of the reactor vessel wall has already been promulgated in Revision 2 to Regulatory Guide 1.99, "Radiation Embrittlement of Reactor Vessel Materials" [Ref. 1]. All of the calculations and dosimetry evaluations described in this section and in Appendix A were based on nuclear cross-section data derived from ENDF/B-VI and used the latest available calculational tools. Furthermore, the neutron transport and dosimetry evaluation methodologies follow the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.190, "Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence" [Ref. 20]. Additionally, the methods used to develop the calculated pressure vessel fluence are consistent with the NRC-approved methodology described in WCAP-14040, Revision 4, [Ref. 21]. As an improvement, instead of the fluence rate synthesis technique, three-dimensional transport calculations were performed.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 6.2 DISCRETE ORDINATES ANALYSIS The arrangement of the surveillance capsules in the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel is shown in Figure 4-1. Six irradiation capsules attached to the neutron pad are included in the reactor design that constitutes the reactor vessel surveillance program. The capsules are located at azimuthal angles of 58.5°, 61.0°, 121.5°, 238.5°, 241.0°, and 301.5°, as shown in Figure 4-1. These full-core positions correspond to the octant symmetric locations shown in Figures 6-2 and 6-3: 29.0° from the core cardinal axes (for the 61.0° and 241.0° capsules) and 31.5° from the core cardinal axes (for the 58.5°, 121.5°, 238.5°, and 301.5° capsules). The stainless steel specimen containers are 1.6-inch by 1.25-inch and are approximately 56 inches in height. The containers are positioned axially such that the test specimens are centered on the core midplane, thus spanning the approximate central 5 feet of the 12-foot-high reactor core. From a neutronic standpoint, the surveillance capsules and associated support structures are significant. The presence of these materials has a significant effect on both the spatial distribution of neutron fluence rate and the neutron spectrum in the vicinity of the capsules. However, the capsules are far enough apart that they do not interfere with one another. In order to determine the neutron environment at the test specimen location, the capsules themselves must be included in the analytical model. In performing the fast neutron exposure evaluations for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel and surveillance capsules, a series of fuel-cycle-specific forward transport calculations were carried out using a three-dimensional geometrical reactor model. For the Callaway Unit 1 transport calculations, the r, ,z models depicted (given as r, plan view) in Figures 6-1 (12.5° neutron pad configuration), 6-2 (20.0° neutron pad configuration), and 6-3 (22.5° neutron pad configuration) were utilized since, with the exception of the neutron pads, capsules, and associated support structures, the reactor is octant symmetric. The r,z section view depicted in Figure 6-4 shows the model having an axial span from an elevation approximately 6 feet below the bottom of the active fuel to 5 feet above the top of the active fuel. These r,,z models include the core, the reactor internals, the neutron pads including explicit representations of octants not containing surveillance capsules and octants with surveillance capsules at 29° and/or 31.5°, the pressure vessel cladding and vessel wall, the insulation external to the pressure vessel, and the primary biological shield wall. These models formed the basis for the calculated results and enabled making comparisons to the surveillance capsule dosimetry evaluations. In developing these analytical models, nominal design dimensions were employed for the various structural components with one exception; the minimum pressure vessel thickness was used. Water temperatures, and hence, coolant densities in the reactor core and downcomer regions of the reactor were taken to be representative of full-power operating conditions. The coolant densities were treated on a fuel-cycle-specific basis. The reactor core itself was treated as a homogeneous mixture of fuel, cladding, water, and miscellaneous core structures such as fuel assembly grids, guide tubes, et cetera. The geometric mesh description of the r,,z reactor models for the 20.0° and 22.5° neutron pad configurations consisted of 183 radial, 110 azimuthal, and 206 axial intervals. The geometric mesh description of the r,,z reactor model for the 12.5° neutron pad configuration consisted of 183 radial, 110 azimuthal, and 204 axial intervals. Mesh sizes were chosen to ensure that proper convergence of the inner iterations was achieved on a pointwise basis. The pointwise inner iteration fluence rate convergence criterion utilized in the r,,z calculations was set at a value of 0.001. The core power distributions used in the plant-specific transport analysis for each of the first 20 fuel cycles at Callaway Unit 1 included cycle-dependent fuel assembly initial enrichments, burnups, and axial Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 power distributions. This information was used to develop spatial- and energy-dependent core source distributions averaged over each individual fuel cycle. Therefore, the results from the neutron transport calculations provided data in terms of fuel-cycle-averaged neutron fluence rate, which when multiplied by the appropriate fuel cycle length, generated the incremental fast neutron exposure for each fuel cycle. In constructing these core source distributions, the energy distribution of the source was based on an appropriate fission split for uranium and plutonium isotopes based on the initial enrichment and burnup history of individual fuel assemblies. From these assembly-dependent fission splits, composite values of energy release per fission, neutron yield per fission, and fission spectrum were determined. All of the transport calculations supporting this analysis were carried out using the RAPTOR-M3G discrete ordinates code [Ref. 22] and the BUGLE-96 cross-section library [Ref. 23]. The BUGLE-96 library provides a coupled 47-neutron, 20-gamma-group cross-section data set produced specifically for light-water reactor (LWR) applications. In these analyses, anisotropic scattering was treated with a P 5 Legendre expansion, and angular discretization was modeled with an S 16 order of angular quadrature. Energy- and space-dependent core power distributions, as well as system operating temperatures, were treated on a fuel-cycle-specific basis. Selected results from the neutron transport analyses are provided in Tables 6-1 through 6-12. In Tables 6-1 and 6-2, the calculated exposure rates and integral exposures expressed in terms of fast neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV), respectively, are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions, i.e., for the 29.0° and 31.5° dual capsule holder locations and 31.5° single capsule holder location. In Tables 6-3 and 6-4, the calculated exposure rates and integral exposures expressed in terms of iron atom displacement rate (dpa/s) and iron atom displacements (dpa), respectively, are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions, i.e., for the 29.0° and 31.5° dual capsule holder locations and 31.5° single capsule holder location. In Tables 6-2 and 6-4, the calculated integral exposures expressed for future projections, in terms of fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacements, respectively, are given at the radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule positions. These results, representative of the average axial exposure of the material specimens, establish the calculated exposure of the surveillance capsules withdrawn to date as well as projections into the future. Similar information, in terms of calculated fast neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV), fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV), dpa/s, and dpa, are provided in Tables 6-5 through 6-8, for the reactor vessel inner radius at four azimuthal locations, as well as the maximum exposure observed within the octant. The vessel data given in Tables 6-5 through 6-8 were taken at the clad/base metal interface and represent maximum calculated exposure levels on the vessel. From the data provided in Table 6-6, it is noted that the peak clad/base metal interface vessel fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) at the end of the 20 th fuel cycle (i.e., after 25.75 EFPY of plant operation) was 1.49E+19 n/cm
- 2. These data tabulations include both plant- and fuel-cycle-specific calculated neutron exposures at the end of the 20 th fuel cycle, as well as future projections to 32, 35, 40, 48, 54, and 60 EFPY. The calculations account for the uprate from 3411 MWt to 3565 MWt that occurred prior to Cycle 3. The projections are based on the assumption that the core power distributions and associated plant operating characteristics from Cycle 21 is representative of future plant operation. The future projections are based on the current reactor power level of 3565 MWt.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-4 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The calculated fast neutron exposures for the six surveillance capsules withdrawn from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor are provided in Table 6-9. These neutron exposure levels are based on the plant- and fuel-cycle-specific neutron transport calculations performed for the Callaway Unit 1 reactor. From the data provided in Table 6-9, Capsule W received a fast neutron fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) of 5.98E+19 n/cm 2 after exposure through the end of the 20 th fuel cycle (i.e., after 25.75 EFPY). Updated lead factors for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsules are provided in Table 6-10. The capsule lead factor is defined as the ratio of the calculated fluence (E > 1.0 MeV) at the geometric radial and azimuthal center of the surveillance capsule to the corresponding maximum calculated fluence at the pressure vessel clad/base metal interface. In Table 6-10, the lead factors for capsules that have been withdrawn from the reactor (Capsules U, Y, V, X, Z, and W) were based on the calculated fluence values for the irradiation period corresponding to the time of withdrawal for the individual capsules. Table 6-11 presents the maximum fast neutron fluences (E > 1.0 MeV) and Table 6-12 presents the maximum dpa for pressure vessel materials.
6.3 NEUTRON DOSIMETRY The validity of the calculated neutron exposures previously reported in Section 6.2 is demonstrated by a direct comparison against the measured sensor reaction rates and via a least-squares evaluation performed for each of the capsule dosimetry sets. However, since the neutron dosimetry measurement data merely serve to validate the calculated results, only the direct comparison of measured-to-calculated results for the most recent surveillance capsule removed from service is provided in this section of the report. For completeness, the assessment of all measured dosimetry removed to date, based on both direct and least-squares evaluation comparisons is documented in Appendix A. The direct comparison of measured versus calculated fast neutron threshold reaction rates for the sensors from Capsule W, which was withdrawn from Callaway Unit 1 at the end of the 20 th fuel cycle, is summarized below.

This direct comparison falls within the 20% criterion specified in Regulatory Guide 1.190. This comparison validates the current analytical results described in Section 6.2; therefore, the calculations are deemed applicable for Callaway Unit 1.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 6-5 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 6.4 CALCULATIONAL UNCERTAINTIES The uncertainty associated with the calculated neutron exposure of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsule and reactor pressure vessel is based on the recommended approach provided in Regulatory Guide 1.190. In particular, the qualification of the methodology was carried out in the following four stages: 1. Comparison of calculations with benchmark measurements from the Pool Critical Assembly (PCA) simulator at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).
- 2. Comparisons of calculations with surveillance capsule and reactor cavity measurements from the H. B. Robinson power reac tor benchmark experiment.
- 3. An analytical sensitivity study addressing the uncertainty components resulting from important input parameters applicable to the plant-specific transport calculations used in the neutron exposure assessments.
- 4. Comparisons of the plant-specific calculations with all available dosimetry results from the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program. The first phase of the methods qualification (PCA comparisons) addressed the adequacy of basic transport calculation and dosimetry evaluation techniques and associated cross-sections. This phase, however, did not test the accuracy of commercial core neutron source calculations nor did it address uncertainties in operational or geometric variables that impact power reactor calculations. The second phase of the qualification (H. B. Robinson comparisons) addressed uncertainties in these additional areas that are primarily methods-related and would tend to apply generically to all fast neutron exposure evaluations. The third phase of the qualification (analytical sensitivity study) identified the potential uncertainties introduced into the overall evaluation due to calculational methods approximations, as well as to a lack of knowledge relative to various plant-specific input parameters. The overall calculational uncertainty applicable to the Callaway Unit 1 analysis was established from results of these three phases of the methods qualification. The fourth phase of the uncertainty assessment (comparisons with Callaway Unit 1 measurements) was used solely to demonstrate the validity of the transport calculations and to confirm the uncertainty estimates associated with the analytical results. The comparison was used only as a check and was not used in any way to modify the calculated surveillance capsule and pressure vessel neutron exposures previously described in Section 6.2. As such, the validation of the Callaway Unit 1 analytical model based on the measured plant dosimetry is completely described in Appendix A. The following summarizes the uncertainties developed from the first three phases of the methodology qualification. Additional information pertinent to these evaluations is provided in Reference 22.

Robinson Comparisons 3% Analytical Sensitivity Studies 11% Additional Uncertainty for Factors not Explicitly 5% Net Calculational Uncertainty 13% The net calculational uncertainty was determined by combining the individual components in quadrature. Therefore, the resultant uncertainty was treated as random, and no systematic bias was applied to the analytical results. The plant-specific measurement comparisons described in Appendix A support these uncertainty assessments for Callaway Unit 1.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 APPENDIX A VALIDATION OF THE RADIATION TRANSPORT MODELS BASED ON NEUTRON DOSIMETRY MEASUREMENTS A.1 NEUTRON DOSIMETRY Comparisons of measured dosimetry results to both the calculated and least-squares adjusted values for all surveillance capsules withdrawn and analyzed to date at Callaway Unit 1 are described herein. The sensor sets from these capsules have been analyzed in accordance with the current dosimetry evaluation methodology described in Regulatory Guide 1.190, "Calculational and Dosimetry Methods for Determining Pressure Vessel Neutron Fluence" [Ref. A-1]. One of the main purposes for presenting this material is to demonstrate that the overall measurements agree with the calculated and least-squares adjusted values to within 20% as specified by Regulatory Guide 1.190, thus serving to validate the calculated neutron exposures previously reported in Section 6.2 of this report.
A.1.1 Sensor Reaction Rate Determinations In this section, the results of the evaluations of the five surveillance capsules analyzed to date as part of the Callaway Unit 1 Reactor Vessel Materials Surveillance Program are presented. The capsule designation, location within the reactor, and time of withdrawal of each of these dosimetry sets were as follows: Capsule Azimuthal Location Withdrawal Time Irradiation Time (EFPY) 58.5º (Capsule U) End of Cycle 1 1.05 241° (Capsule Y) End of Cycle 4 4.70 61° (Capsule V) End of Cycle 8 9.94 238.5° (Capsule X) End of Cycle 10 12.49 121.5° (Capsule W) End of Cycle 20 25.75 The passive neutron sensors included in the evaluations of surveillance Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W are summarized as follows:

The cobalt-aluminum and uranium monitors for this plant include both bare and cadmium-covered sensors. Pertinent physical and nuclear characteristics of the passive neutron sensors analyzed are listed in Table A-1 for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W. The use of passive monitors such as those listed above do not yield a direct measure of the energy-dependent neutron fluence rate at the point of interest. Rather, the activation or fission process is a measure of the integrated effect that the time- and energy-dependent neutron fluence rate has on the target material over the course of the irradiation period. An accurate assessment of the average neutron fluence rate level incident on the various monitors may be derived from the activation measurements only if the irradiation parameters are well known. In particular, the following variables are of interest: the measured specific activity of each monitor, the physical characteristics of each monitor, the operating history of the reactor, the energy response of each monitor, and the neutron energy spectrum at the monitor location. Results from the radiometric counting of the neutron sensors from Capsules U, Y, V, and X are documented in References A-2, A-3, A-4, and A-5, respectively. The radiometric counting of the sensors from Capsule W was carried out by Pace Analytical Services, Inc. The radiometric counting followed established ASTM procedures. The irradiation history of the reactor over the irradiation periods experienced by Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W was based on the monthly power generation of Callaway Unit 1 from initial reactor criticality through the end of the dosimetry evaluation period. For the sensor sets utilized in the surveillance capsules, the half-lives of the product isotopes are long enough that a monthly histogram describing reactor operation has proven to be an adequate representation for use in radioactive decay corrections for the reactions of interest in the exposure evaluations. The irradiation history applicable to Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W is given in Table A-2.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Having the measured specific activities, the physical characteristics of the sensors, and the operating history of the reactor, reaction rates referenced to full-power operation were determined from the following equation:
][e ]e-[1 C P P Y F N A R j d, j t-t-j ref j 0 where: R = Reaction rate averaged over the irradiation period and referenced to operation at a core power level of P ref (rps/nucleus). A = Measured specific activity (dps/g).
N 0 = Number of target element atoms per gram of sensor. F = Atom fraction of the target isotope in the target element. Y = Number of product atoms produced per reaction.
P j = Average core power level during irradiation period j (MW).
P ref = Maximum or reference power level of the reactor (MW).
C j = Calculated ratio of (E > 1.0 MeV) during irradiation period j to the time weighted average (E > 1.0 MeV) over the entire irradiation period. = Decay constant of the product isotope (1/sec).
t j = Length of irradiation period j (sec).
td,j = Decay time following irradiation period j (sec). The summation is carried out over the total number of monthly intervals comprising the irradiation period. In the equation describing the reaction rate calculation, the ratio [P j]/[P ref] accounts for month-by-month variation of reactor core power level within any given fuel cycle as well as over multiple fuel cycles. The ratio C j, which was calculated for each fuel cycle using the transport methodology discussed in Section 6.2, accounts for the change in sensor reaction rates caused by variations in fluence rate level induced by changes in core spatial power distributions from fuel cycle to fuel cycle. For a single-cycle irradiation, C j is normally taken to be 1.0. However, for multiple-cycle irradiations, the additional C j term should be employed. The impact of changing fluence rate levels for constant po wer operation can be quite significant for sensor sets that have been irradiated for many cycles in a reactor that has transitioned from Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-4 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 non-low-leakage to low-leakage fuel management or for sensor sets contained in surveillance capsules that have been moved from one capsule location to another. The fuel-cycle-specific neutron fluence rates and the computed values for C j are listed in Tables A-3 and A-4, respectively, for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W. These fluence rates represent the capsule- and cycle-dependent results at the radial and azimuthal center of the respective capsules at core midplane. Prior to using the measured reaction rates in the least-squares evaluations of the dosimetry sensor sets, additional corrections were made to the 238U cadmium-covered measurements to account for the presence of 235U impurities in the sensors, as well as to adjust for the build-in of plutonium isotopes over the course of the irradiation. Corrections were also made to the 238 U and 237Np sensor reaction rates to account for gamma-ray-induced fission reactions that occurred over the course of the capsule irradiations. The correction factors corresponding to the Callaway Unit 1 fission sensor reaction rates are summarized as follows: Correction Capsule UCapsule Y Capsule VCapsule X Capsule W235U Impurity/Pu Build-in 0.8720 0.8385 0.7989 0.7737 0.6840 238 U( ,f) 0.9652 0.9662 0.9665 0.9659 0.9689 Net 238U Correction 0.8417 0.8102 0.7721 0.7473 0.6627 238 Np( ,f) Correction 0.9900 0.9902 0.9903 0.9901 0.9910 The correction factors for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W, were applied in a multiplicative fashion to the decay-corrected cadmium-covered uranium fission sensor reaction rates. Results of the sensor reaction rate determinations for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W, are given in Tables A-5 through A-9. In Tables A-5 through A-9, the measured specific activities, decay-corrected saturated specific activities, and computed reaction rates for each sensor are listed. The cadmium-covered fission sensor reaction rates are listed both with and without the applied corrections for 235U impurities, plutonium build-in, and gamma-ray-induced fission effects.
A.1.2 Least-Squares Evaluation of Sensor Sets Least-squares adjustment methods provide the capability of combining the measurement data with the corresponding neutron transport calculations resulting in a best-estimate neutron energy spectrum with associated uncertainties. Best-estimates for key exposure parameters such as fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) or dpa/s along with their uncertainties are then easily obtained from the adjusted spectrum. In general, the least-squares methods, as applied to surveillance capsule dosimetry evaluations, act to reconcile the measured sensor reaction rate data, dosimetry reaction cross-sections, and the calculated neutron energy spectrum within their respective uncertainties. For example, ))((R g ig i g g ig R i Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-5 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 relates a set of measured reaction rates, R i, to a single neutron spectrum, g, through the multigroup dosimeter reaction cross-sections, ig, each with an uncertainty . The primary objective of the least-squares evaluation is to produce unbiased estimates of the neutron exposure parameters at the location of the measurement. For the least-squares evaluation of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsule dosimetry, the FERRET code [Ref. A-6] was employed to combine the results of the plant-specific neutron transport calculations and sensor set reaction rate measurements to determine best-estimate values of exposure parameters (fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa) along with associated uncertainties for the five in-vessel capsules analyzed to date. The application of the least-squares methodology requires the following input:
- 1. The calculated neutron energy spectrum and associated uncertainties at the measurement location.
- 2. The measured reaction rates and associated uncertainty for each sensor contained in the multiple foil set.
- 3. The energy-dependent dosimetry reaction cross-sections and associated uncertainties for each sensor contained in the multiple foil sensor set. For the Callaway Unit 1 application, the calculated neutron spectrum was obtained from the results of plant-specific neutron transport calculations described in Section 6.2 of this report. The sensor reaction rates were derived from the measured specific activities using the procedures described in Section A.1.1. The dosimetry reaction cross-sections and uncertainties were obtained from the SNLRML dosimetry cross-section library
[Ref. A-7]. The uncertainties associated with the measured reaction rates, dosimetry cross-sections, and calculated neutron spectrum were input to the least-squares procedure in the form of variances and covariances. The assignment of the input uncertainties followed the guidance provided in ASTM Standard E944, "Standard Guide for Application of Neutron Spectrum Adjustment Methods in Reactor Surveillance" [Ref. A-8]. The following provides a summary of the uncertainties associated with the least-squares evaluation of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsule sensor sets. Reaction Rate Uncertainties The overall uncertainty associated with the measured reaction rates includes components due to the basic measurement process, irradiation history corrections, and corrections for competing reactions. A high level of accuracy in the reaction rate determinations is ensured by utilizing laboratory procedures that conform to the ASTM National Consensus Standards for reaction rate determinations for each sensor type. After combining all of these uncertainty components, the sensor reaction rates derived from the counting and data evaluation procedures were assigned the following net uncertainties for input to the least-squares evaluation:
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-6 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Reaction Uncertainty 63 Cu(n,)60Co 5% 54Fe(n,p)54Mn 5% 58 Ni(n,p)58Co 5% 238U(n,f)FP 10% 237Np(n,f)FP 10%
59 Co(n,)60 Co 5% These uncertainties are given at the 1 level. Dosimetry Cross-Section Uncertainties The reaction rate cross-sections used in the least-squares evaluations were taken from the SNLRML library. This data library provides reaction cross-sections and associated uncertainties, including covariances, for 66 dosimetry sensors in common use. Both cross-sections and uncertainties are provided in a fine multigroup structure for use in least-squares adjustment applications. These cross-sections were compiled from recent cross-section evaluations, and they have been tested for accuracy and consistency for least-squares evaluations. Further, the library has been empirically tested for use in fission spectra determination, as well as in the fluence and energy characterization of 14 MeV neutron sources. For sensors included in the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program, the following uncertainties in the fission spectrum averaged cross-sections are provided in the SNLRML documentation package. Reaction Uncertainty 63 Cu(n,)60Co 4.08-4.16%
54Fe(n,p)54Mn 3.05-3.11%
58 Ni(n,p)58Co 4.49-4.56% 238 U(n,f)137Cs 0.54-0.64% 237 Np(n,f)137Cs 10.32-10.97%
59 Co(n,)60 Co 0.79-3.59% These tabulated ranges provide an indication of the dosimetry cross-section uncertainties associated with the sensor sets used in LWR irradiations.
Calculated Neutron Spectrum The neutron spectra inputs to the least-squares adjustment procedure were obtained directly from the results of plant-specific transport calculations for each surveillance capsule irradiation period and location. The spectrum for each capsule was input in an absolute sense (rather than as simply a relative Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-7 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 spectral shape). Therefore, within the constraints of the assigned uncertainties, the calculated data were treated equally with the measurements. While the uncertainties associated with the reaction rates were obtained from the measurement procedures and counting benchmarks and the dosimetry cross-section uncertainties were supplied directly with the SNLRML library, the uncertainty matrix for the calculated spectrum was constructed from the following relationship:
gg'g'g 2 n gg'P*R*R R M where R n specifies an overall fractional normalization uncertainty and the fractional uncertainties R g and R g' specify additional random groupwise uncertainties that are correlated with a correlation matrix given by:
e + ]-[1 = P-H g g g g where 2 2 2)g'(g H The first term in the correlation matrix equation specifies purely random uncertainties, while the second term describes the short-range correlations over a group range ( specifies the strength of the latter term). The value of is 1.0 when g = g, and is 0.0 otherwise. The set of parameters defining the input covariance matrix for the Callaway Unit 1 calculated spectra was as follows: Fluence Rate Normalization Uncertainty (R n) 15% Fluence Rate Group Uncertainties (R g , R g') (E > 0.0055 MeV) 15%
(0.68 eV < E < 0.0055 MeV) 25% (E < 0.68 eV) 50% Short Range Correlation () (E > 0.0055 MeV) 0.9 (0.68 eV < E < 0.0055 MeV) 0.5 (E < 0.68 eV) 0.5 Fluence Rate Group Correlation Range () (E > 0.0055 MeV) 6 (0.68 eV < E < 0.0055 MeV) 3 (E < 0.68 eV) 2 Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 A-8 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 A.1.3 Comparisons of Measurements and Calculations Results of the least-squares evaluations of the dosimetry from the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance capsules withdrawn to date are provided in Tables A-10, A-11, A-12, A-13, and A-14 for Capsules U, Y, V, X, and W, respectively. In these tables, measured, calculated, and best-estimate values for sensor reaction rates are given for each capsule. Also provided in these tabulations are ratios of the measured reaction rates to both the calculated and least-squares adjusted reaction rates. These ratios of M/C and M/BE illustrate the consistency of the fit of the calculated neutron energy spectra to the measured reaction rates both before and after adjustment. Additionally, comparisons of the calculated and best-estimate values of neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacement rate are tabulated along with the BE/C ratios observed for each of the capsules. Note that for Capsule X, the cadmium-covered uranium monitor was discarded because it was outside the expected values. The data comparisons provided in Tables A-10 through A-14 show that the adjustments to the calculated spectra are relatively small and within the assigne d uncertainties for the calculated spectra, measured sensor reaction rates, and dosimetry reaction cross-sections. Further, these results indicate that the use of the least-squares evaluation results in a reduction in the uncertainties associated with the exposure of the surveillance capsules. From Section 6.4 of this report, the calculational uncertainty is specified as 13% at the 1 level. Further comparisons of the measurement results with calculations are given in Tables A-15 and A-16. These comparisons are given on two levels. In Table A-15, calculations of individual threshold sensor reaction rates are compared directly with the corresponding measurements. These threshold reaction rate comparisons provide a good evaluation of the accuracy of the fast neutron portion of the calculated energy spectra. In Table A-16, calculations of fast neutron exposure rates in terms of fast neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and dpa/s are compared with the best-estimate results obtained from the least-squares evaluation of the capsule dosimetry results. These two levels of comparison yield consistent and similar results with all measurement-to-calculation comparisons falling within the 20% limits specified as the acceptance criteria in Regulatory Guide 1.190. In the case of the direct comparison of measured and calculated sensor reaction rates, for the individual threshold foils considered in the least-squares analysis, the average M/C comparisons for fast neutron reactions range from 1.00 to 1.17 in the data set. The overall average M/C ratio for the entire set of Callaway Unit 1 data is 1.07 with an associated standard deviation of 7.9%. In the comparisons of best-estimate and calculated fast neutron exposure parameters, the corresponding BE/C comparisons for the capsule data sets range from 0.94 to 1.10 for neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and from 0.95 to 1.09 for iron atom displacement rate. The overall average BE/C ratios for neutron fluence rate (E > 1.0 MeV) and iron atom displacement rate are 1.02 with a standard deviation of 5.9% and 1.02 with a standard deviation of 5.2%, respectively. Based on these comparisons, it is concluded that the calculated fast neutron exposures provided in Section 6.2 of this report are validated for use in the assessment of the condition of the materials comprising the beltline region of the Callaway Unit 1 reactor pressure vessel.

A-9].

The definition for USE is given in ASTM E185-82 [Ref. C-1], Section 4.18, and reads as follows:
"upper shelf energy level - the average energy value for all Charpy specimens (normally three) whose test temperature is above the upper end of the transition region. For specimens tested in sets of three at each test temperature, the set having the highest average may be regarded as defining the upper shelf energy." Westinghouse reports the average of all Charpy data ( 95% shear) as the USE, excluding any values that are deemed outliers using engineering judgment. Hence, the Capsule W USE values reported in Table C-1 were determined by applying this methodology to the Charpy data tabulated in Tables 5-1 through 5-4 of this report. USE values documented in Table C-1 for the unirradiated material, as well as Capsules U, Y, V and X were also determined by applying the methodology described above to the Charpy impact data reported in WCAP-9842, Revision 0 [Ref. C-2], WCAP-11374, Revision 1 [Ref. C-3], WCAP-12946, Revision 0 [Ref. C-4], WCAP-14895, Revision 0 [Ref. C-5] and WCAP-15400, Revision 0 [Ref. C-6]. Three data points differ from those previously reported, due to the inclusion of all Charpy data ( 95% shear) as the USE: Unirradiated material (weld material), Capsule U (lower shell plate material, longitudinal direction) and Capsule V (HAZ material). The USE values reported in Table C-1 were used in generation of the Charpy V-notch curves. The lower-shelf energy values were fixed at 2.2 ft-lb for all cases. The lower-shelf lateral expansion (L.E.) values were fixed at 1.0 mils in order to be consistent with the previous capsule analysis [Ref. C-6]. Upper-shelf L.E. is not typically fixed in CVGRAPH; however, due to an inaccurate curve fit, the upper shelf L.E. value will be fixed in a summary plot, as documented in Section 5 of this report, for the T-L material in Capsule W. The individual L.E. plot for this material, as documented in this Appendix, will still allow the upper-shelf L.E. to float for comparison between the two methods. The fixed upper-shelf L.E. value was determined using the same Charpy V-notch test specimens that were used for the upper-shelf energy determination and is shown in Table C-2.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 APPENDIX D CALLAWAY UNIT 1 SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM CREDIBILITY EVALUATION D.1 INTRODUCTION Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. D-1] describes general procedures acceptable to the NRC staff for calculating the effects of neutron radiation embrittlement of the low-alloy steels currently used for light-water-cooled reactor vessels. Positions 2.1 and 2.2 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, describe the method for calculating the adjusted reference temperature and Charpy upper-shelf energy of reactor vessel beltline materials using surveillance capsule data. The methods of Positions 2.1 and 2.2 can only be applied when two or more credible surveillance data sets become available from the reactor in question. To date there have been five surveillance capsules removed and tested from the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel. To use these surveillance data sets, they must be shown to be credible. In accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, the credibility of the surveillance data will be judged based on five criteria. The purpose of this evaluation is to apply the credibility requirements of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, to the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel surveillance data and determine if that surveillance data is credible.
D.2 EVALUATION Criterion 1: Materials in the capsules should be those judged most likely to be controlling with regard to radiation embrittlement. The beltline region of the reactor vessel is defined in Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50, "Fracture Toughness Requirements" [Ref. D-2], as follows: "the region of the reactor vessel (shell material including welds, heat affected zones, and plates or forgings) that directly surrounds the effective height of the active core and adjacent regions of the reactor vessel that are predicted to experience sufficient neutron radiation damage to be considered in the selection of the most limiting material with regard to radiation damage."
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-2 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 The Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline region consists of the following materials:
- 1. Intermediate Shell Plates R2707-1, R2707-2 and R2707-3
- 2. Lower Shell Plates R2708-1, R2708-2 and R2708-3
- 3. Intermediate Shell to Lower Shell Circumferential Weld Seam 101-171 (Heat # 90077, Linde Flux Type 124)
- 4. Intermediate Shell Plate Longitudinal Weld Seams 101-124A, 101-124B and 101-124C (Heat # 90077, Linde Flux Type 0091)
- 5. Lower Shell Longitudinal Weld Seams 101-142A, 101-142B and 101-142C (Heat # 90077, Linde Flux Type 0091). Per WCAP-9842, Revision 0 [Ref. D-3], the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program was developed to the requirements of ASTM E185-73: "The base material and weld metal to be included in the program should represent the material that may limit the operation of the reactor during its lifetime. The test material should be selected on the basis of initial transition temperature, upper shelf energy level, and estimated increase in transition temperature considering chemical composition (copper (Cu) and phosphorus (P)) and neutron fluence." At the time of the surveillance program development, copper and phosphorus content were considered the most limiting factors in embrittlement of reactor vessel steels. Since all plate materials had approximately the same copper and phosphorus content, initial RT NDT and USE were considered to select the representative plate. The lower shell plate R2708-1 had the highest initial RT NDT and the second lowest USE energy. Thus, the lower shell plate R2708-1 was selected as the plate material for the surveillance program. Note that lower shell plate R2708-1 has the same material heat number as the lower shell plate R2708-3; therefore, surveillance credibility conclusions and subsequent Position 2.1 chemistry factor determinations and Position 2.2 percent USE reduction calculations apply to this plate material as well. The intermediate shell to lower shell circumferential weld seam, intermediate shell longitudinal weld seams and lower shell longitudinal weld seams all used the same weld material. This material was 3/16 inch Mil B-4 weld filler wire, heat number 90077. The surveillance weld material was also fabricated from this same heat of weld material. The intermediate to lower shell circumferential weld seam 101-171 was fabricated with Linde flux type 124, lot number 1061. The intermediate and lower shell longitudinal weld seams were fabricated with Linde flux type 0091, lot number 0842. The surveillance weld was fabricated with Linde flux type 124, lot number 1061. Thus, the surveillance material is representative of all the weld seams in the beltline region with respect to transition temperature shift, credibility conclusions and Position 2.1 chemistry factor determinations. However, it is only representative of the intermediate shell to lower shell circumferential weld with respect to Position 2.2 percent USE decrease evaluations because both the heat number and flux type (Linde 124) match for this weld material only. Based on the discussion above, Criterion 1 is met for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-3 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Criterion 2: Scatter in the plots of Charpy energy versus temperature for the irradiated and unirradiated conditions should be small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature and upper-shelf energy unambiguously. Based on engineering judgment, the scatter in the data presented in these plots, as documented in Appendix C of this report, is small enough to permit the determination of the 30 ft-lb temperature and the upper-shelf energy of the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance materials unambiguously. Hence, the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program meets this criterion.
Criterion 3: When there are two or more sets of surveillance data from one reactor, the scatter of RT NDT values about a best-fit line drawn as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 normally should be less than 28°F for welds and 17°F for base metal. Even if the fluence range is large (two or more orders of magnitude), the scatter should not exceed twice those values. Even if the data fail this criterion for use in shift calculations, they may be credible for determining decrease in upper-shelf energy if the upper shelf can be clearly determined, following the definition given in ASTM E185-82 [Ref. D-4].
The functional form of the least squares method as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 will be utilized to determine a best-fit line for this data and to determine if the scatter of these RT NDT values about this line is less than 28°F for welds and less than 17°F for the plate. Following is the calculation of the best-fit line as described in Regulatory Position 2.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. In addition, the recommended NRC methods for determining credibility will be followed. The NRC methods were presented to industry at a meeting held by the NRC on February 12 and 13, 1998 [Ref. D-5]. At this meeting, the NRC presented five cases. Of the five cases, Case 1 ("Surveillance data available from plant but no other source") most closely represents the situation for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate and weld material. Case 1: Lower Shell Plate R2708-1 and Weld Material Heat # 90077 Following the NRC Case 1 guidelines, the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance plate and weld metal will be evaluated using the Callaway Unit 1 data. This evaluation is contained in Table D-1. Note that when evaluating the credibility of the surveillance weld data, the measured RT NDT values for the surveillance weld material do not include the adjustment ratio procedure of Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Position 2.1, since this calculation is based on the actual surveillance weld material measured shift values. In addition, only Callaway Unit 1 data is being considered; therefore, no temperature adjustment is required.

From a statistical point of view, +/- 1 would be expected to encompass 68% of the data. Table D-2 indicates that six of the ten surveillance data points fall inside the +/- 1 of 17F scatter band for surveillance base metals; therefore, the plate data is deemed "non-credible" per the third criterion. Table D-2 indicates that four of the five surveillance data points fall inside the +/- 1 of 28F scatter band for surveillance weld materials; therefore, the surveillance weld data is deemed "credible" per the third criterion.
Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 D-6 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 Criterion 4: The irradiation temperature of the Charpy specimens in the capsule should match the vessel wall temperature at the cladding/base metal interface within +/- 25°F. The capsule specimens are located in the reactor between the neutron shielding pads and the vessel wall and are positioned opposite to the center of the core. The test capsules are located in guide tubes attached to the neutron shielding pads [Ref. D-3]. The location of the specimens with respect to the reactor vessel beltline provides assurance that the reactor vessel wall and the specimens experience equivalent operating conditions such that the temperatures will not differ by more than 25°F. Hence, Criterion 4 is met for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
Criterion 5: The surveillance data for the correlation monitor material in the capsule should fall within the scatter band of the database for that material. The Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program does not contain correlation monitor material. Therefore, this criterion is not applicable to Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.
Hence, Criterion 5 is met for the Callaway Unit 1 surveillance program.

Westinghouse Non-Proprietary Class 3 E-1 WCAP-18001-NP September 2015 Revision 0 APPENDIX E CALLAWAY UNIT 1 UPPER-SHELF ENERGY EVALUATION E.1 EVALUATION Per Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2 [Ref. E-1], the Charpy upper-shelf energy (USE) is assumed to decrease as a function of fluence and copper content as indicated in Figure 2 of the Guide (Figure E-1 of this appendix) when surveillance data is not used.
Linear interpolation is permitted. In addition, if surveillance data is to be used, the decrease in upper-shelf energy may be obtained by plotting the reduced plant surveillance data on Figure 2 of the Guide (Figure E-1 of this appendix) and fitting the data with a line drawn parallel to the existing lines as the upper bound of all the data. This line should be used in preference to the existing graph.
The 35 EFPY (end-of-license) and 54 EFPY (end-of-license renewal) upper-shelf energy of the vessel materials can be predicted using the corresponding 1/4T fluence projection, the copper content of the beltline materials and/or the results of the capsules tested to date using Figure 2 in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2. The maximum vessel clad/base metal interface fluence value was used to determine the corresponding 1/4T fluence value at 35 EFPY and 54 EFPY for the beltline materials. Likewise, the peak extended beltline fluence values at 35 and 54 EFPY was used for the extended beltline materials. The Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline region minimum thickness is 8.63 inches. Calculation of the 1/4T vessel fluence values at 35 EFPY and 54 EFPY for the beltline and extended beltline materials are shown in Table E-1.

For the predicted USE decrease determinations, the base metal and weld Cu weight percentages were conservatively rounded up to the nearest higher line in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Figure 2, unless otherwise noted. (b) Calculated using surveillance capsule measured percent decrease in USE from Table 5-10 and Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2, Position 2.2; see Figure E-1. (c) Consistent with RIS 2014-1 [Ref. E-2], which established a formal NRC position on material inclusion and embrittlement requirements of extended beltline materials, the effects of neutron radiation must be considered for any locations that are predicted to experience a neutron fluence exposure greater than 1 x 10 17 n/cm 2 (E > 1.0 MeV) at the end of the licensed operating period. Per Table 6-11 of this report, the inlet and outlet nozzle forging materials and the inlet and outlet nozzle to shell welds have a 54 EFPY fluence level below this threshold; therefore, percent USE reduction is not considered for these materials.
USE Conclusion As shown in Table E-2 and Table E-3, all of the Callaway Unit 1 reactor vessel beltline materials and extended beltline materials are projected to remain above the USE screening criterion of 50 ft-lbs (per 10 CFR 50, Appendix G) at 35 EPFY and 54 EFPY.
