OMAHA PUBLIC POWER DISTRICT RELOAD CORE ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY NEUTRONICS DESIGN METHODS AND VERIFICATION 1.0 LNTRODUCTION This document describes the Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) neutronics design calculation methods using the CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer code system.

Studsvik AB and Studsvik of America (SOA) developed the CASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer code system which is considered a state-of-the-art core analysis modelling system throughout the nuclear industry (References 1-1 through 1-4).

Previous Fort Calhoun Station (FCS) neutronics design methods approved by the NRC were based on ABB/ Combustion Engineering (ABB/CE) topical reports. The FCS neutronics design methods described in this document are based upon a I combination of NRC-approved methods from ABB/CE topical reports and j NRC-approved Yankee Atomic Electric Company (YAEC) topical reports involving I l

the use of CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3. YAEC previously provided the theoretical  ;

basisandvalidationoftheCASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3computercodesystemtothe  ;

NRC (References 1-5 and 1-6). These topical reports provided detailed I descriptions of the computer programs and a general methodology for performing reactor physics analyses. J l

The primary objective of this methodology report revision is to demonstrate l OPPD's ability to use the CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer code system to j accurately model the FCS reactor for the purposes of core reload design l analysis. Table 1-1 lists the reactor physics parameters used for benchmarking CASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3 predictions against plant measurement data. l 1

Section 2.0 provides a basic description of physics methods and models.

Section 3.0 details OPPD's application of these models to the FCS reactor.

Section 4.0 discusses OPPD's latest verification program that includes the cycle-by-cycle comparisons of OPPD calculated data to measured data and data from independent calculations using the CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer code system. Section 5.0 contains the overall conclusions. Section 6.0 lists the individual references.

2.0 DESCRIPTION

OF PHYSICS METHODS AND MAQfLS i

OPPD's neutronics design analysis for the FCS core using CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 I is based on the continuing effort to improve and enhance OPPD's capabilities 1

in performing reload design calculations. The methodology employs a similar combination of multi-group neutron spectrum calculations used in the l currently approved methodology. Use of the CASMO-3 provides cross-sections appropriately averaged over a few broad energy groups. SIMULATE-3 provides two group, two- and three-dimensional diffusion theory calculations which result in integral and differential reactivity effects and power distributions. These programs embody more advanced analytical procedures than the currently approved methods and use the fundamental nuclear data consistent with the currere :, tate-of-the-art technology.

2.1 RESfRIPTION OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS The CASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer program system was developed by Studsvik AB, Nykoping, Sweden, and their American subsidiary Studsvik of America, Newton, Massachusetts. The computer program package consists of the following computer programs:

  • CASLIB e CASMO-3 e TABLES-3 e SIMULATE-3 In addition, the Electric Power Research Institute's (EPRI) ESCORE computer program was incorporated into the new methods along with the ASAS computer program jointly developed by Yankee Atomic Electric Company (YAEC) and OPPD.

OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 3 of 81 i

2.1.1 ESCORE ESCORE (Reference 2-1) is a computer program that predicts best-estimate, steady-state fuel performance data for light water reactor fuel rods. This computer program previously received NRC approval for use in calculating fuel rod temperatures for input to design and safety analyses (Reference 2-2). OPPD uses ESCORE to calculate the fuel temperature of the average rod as a function of burnup. Output from this computer program provides the average fuel pin temperature for use in CASM0-3 and a burnup dependent fuel pin temperature for the FCS SIMULATE-3 model.

2.1.2 CASLIB CASLIB (Reference 2-3) produces a binary neutron cross-section library for input to CASMO-3 from a card-image, formatted library. This library is based mainly on data from ENDF/B-IV with an update from ENDF/B-V and other sources. Both 40- and 70-group cross-section data are available for nearly 100 materials.

2.1.3 CASM0-3 CASM0-3 (Reference 2-4) is a multi group, two-dimensional transport theory computer program. This computer program models cylindrical fuel rods of varying composition in a square pitch array. CASM0-3 can model fuel rods, fuel rods with an integral burnable absorber material, burnable absorber rods, control rods, CEA guide tubes, in-core instruments and water gaps.

CASMO-3 generates all cross-section data for SIMULATE-3. OPPD uses CASMO-3 in a single assembly format with reflective boundary conditions

and a 40-energy group cross-section library.

2.1.4 TABLES-3 TABLES-3 (Reference 2-5) is a data processing program that links l

CASMO-3 to SIMULATE-3. The program processes two group cross-sections, discontinuity factors, fission product data, in-core instrument response data, pin power reconstruction data, and kinetics data from CASMO-3. TABLES-3 reads the CASMO-3 card image files and produces a master binary cross-section library for SIMULATE-3.

OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 4 of 81

2.1.5 SIMULATE-3 SIMULATE-3 (Reference 2-6) is a two- or three-dimensional (2-D or 3-D),

two-group coarse mesh diffusion theory reactor simulator program. The program explicitly models the baffle / reflector region, thus eliminating the need to normalize to higher-order fine mesh calculations such as PDQ. Homogenized cross-sections and discontinuity factors are applied to the coarse mesh nodal model to solve the two group diffusion equation using the QPANDA neutronics model. The QPANDA model is the spatial neutronics model used in SIMULATE-3 which solves the three-dimensional, two group neutron diffusion equation using fourth order polynomials to represent the intra-nodal flux distributions in both the fast and thermal groups. QPANDA explicitly treats group-to group coupling effects on the intra-nodal flux distributions, an important phenomenon which is ignored in conventional nodal models.

The nodal thermal hydraulic properties are calculated based on the inlet temperature, RCS pressure, coolant mass flow rate, and the heat addition along the channels.

The pin-by pin power distributions, on a 2-D or 3-D basis, are constructed from the inter- and intra-assembly information from the coarse mesh solution and the pin-wise assembly power distribution from CASM0-3.

The SIMULATE-3 program performs a macroscopic depletion. Individual uranium, plutonium and lumped fission product isotope concentrations are not computed. However, microscopic depletion of iodine, xenon, promethium and samarium is included to model typical reactor transients.

2.1.6 ASAS ASAS (Axial Shape Analyzer for SIMULATE-3, Reference 2-7) is a computer program that formats SIMULATE-3 power distribution data into axial shape data to be used as input to the setpoint analyses. ASAS processes 3-D SIMULATE-3 power distributions and writes selected information to a user output file, a Core Transient Summary (CTS) file and an Axial Transient Summary (ATS) file.

2.2 DESCRIPTION

OF CDMPUTER MODELS l 1

)

OPPD uses the reactor physics computer programs described in Sections l 2.0 and 2.1 to model the FCS reactor core. The computer codes that embody these basic physics models are maintained on the OPPD Nuclear Engineering Workstation Network ~. OPPD maintains all documentation and l quality assurance programs related to these workstation computer codes.

The following paragraphs discuss the specifics of the FCS models.

2.2.1 CASMO-3 FUEL ASSEMBLY AND REFLECTOR MODELS Each unique PWR fuel assembly type (defined by geometry, enrichment and burnable poison pins) is separately modelled in CASMO-3 using octant geometry. Enrichment zoning among fuel pins, burnable poison pins and CEA guide tubes are explicitly modelled. The water gap between assemblies in the reactor core is included in the CASM0-3 model. The spacer grids are also included. Design bases documents, such as the Updated Safety Analysis Report (USAR), reload reports, and as-built drawings provide the necessary data to develop the CASM0-3 assembly models.

Three depletion cases are needed to generate the average cross-section data for each fuel assembly type. First, the fuel assembly is depleted at hot full power (HFP), reactor average conditions. Moderator temperature, fuel temperature and soluble boron concentration are set to constant average values for the complete depletion. The average fuel temperature at HFP conditions is calculated with ESCORE (Reference 2-1). Second, the fuel assembly is depleted at a low moderator temperature corresponding to hot zero power (HZP) conditions. The fuel temperature and the soluble boron concentration, however, are kept at the constant HFP, reactor average values. In the final depletion, the l fuel assembly is again depleted at constant HFP, reactor average conditions, but with a constant soluble boron concentration higher than is usually seen in normal operation. Restart calculations are performed from the base depletion to modify parameters from the base case. Each fuel assembly type is depleted to 70 GWD/MTU assembly i average burnup using the CASMO-3 default depletion steps.

OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 l Page 6 of 81

l l

Branch cases are pe'eformed to calculate instantaneous effects. The instantaneous effects are individually calculated and used to create <

l the proper fuel assenbly cross-sections. The branch cases are executed I from the HFP, reactur average condition restart files at 0,1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 GWD/MTV. Branch cases are run for off-normal moderator temperature;, fuel temperatures, soluble boron  !

concentrations, control rod insertions and shutdown cooling effects.

Cross-sections to handle cold conditions (<532 F) are also generated with temperature points at 515 F, 350 F, 210 F and 68 F. The cross-sections generated in this manner utilize off-nominal and restart cases in a similar way to the normal cross-sections. The cold cross-sections are used to calculate reactivity parameters at cold conditions.

CASMO-3 also generates top, bottom and radial reflector cross-sections.

Two radial reflectors were modelled to account for the varying distances between the core shroud and the core support barrel. The first radial reflector is a combination of the core shroud, a homogenous mixture of water and stainless steel centering plates located between the core shroud and the core support barrel, and the core support barrel. The second radial reflector consists of the stainless steel core shroud followed by about 15 centimeters (cm) of the homogenous mixture of water and stainless steel centering plates.

The top reflector extends from the top of the active fuel to the lower surface of the fuel assembly upper end fitting. The bottom reflector extends from the bottom of the active fuel to the lower surface of the core support plate. Reflector cross-sections are modelled as a function of soluble boron concentration and moderator temperature.

CASMO-3 also generates data that SIMULATE-3 uses to determine the detector reaction rates, based upon detector geometry data input.

OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev 04 Page 7 of 81

2.2.2 IAB1ES-3 MODEL The TABLES-3 program generates two-dimensional reactor and cycle specific cross-section tables for SIMULATE-3. Data from the following CASMO-3 card image files are combined into binary cross-section libraries for input into SIMULATE-3.

  • HFP Reactor Average Depletion + Branches Fuel Temperature Branches Moderator lemperature Branches Soluble Boron Concentration Branches Control Rod Insertion Branches Shutdown Cooling Branches
  • Law Moderator Temperature Depletion e HFP High Soluble Boron Concentration Depletion e Bottom Reflector Data e Radial Reflector Data e Top Reflector Data l

OPPD-NA- 302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 8 of 81

2.2.3 SIMULATE-3 MODEL The SIMULATE-3 model divides the active fuel region into 16 axial and four radial nodes per assembly. A pseudo-assembly, consisting of reflector material, surrounds the core and is divided into one radial and 16 equal length axial nodes. Axially, the fuel is divided into a single bottom reflector node,16 nodes for the active fuel region and a single top reflector node.

Additional SIMULATE-3 model input data includes the following:

  • Full core assembly serial number map e Quarter core fuel assembly type map e Fuel assembly axial zone definition (including reflectors)

. In-core instrumentation locations Fuel temperature versus power level and burnup

=

correlation (ESCORE) e Core MW-thermal output at 100% power

. Core pressure, power density and coolant mass flow rate at 100% power conditions e Coolant inlet temperature versus power level e Input restart files e Output restart files After the cycle base model is set up, the user can specify the percent power level, rod bank positions (inches withdrawn), output and edit options and the type of calculation: depletion, xenon transient or reactivity coefficient calculation (e.g., Isothermal Temperature Coefficient, Inverse Boron Worth, Fuel Temperature Coefficient, etc.).

The FCS reactor is a base loaded facility, meaning operation at or very near rated thermal power throughout the cycle. The lead CEA bank insertion is held to a minimum. Historically, the lead CEA bank at FCS has been inserted less than 5% of the time whenever the reactor is at a OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 9 of 81

steady power level . Reference 2-8 discusses the impact of operation with a time averaged lead bank insertion of [ ]. Typically, the operating cycle is depleted in time steps of 1 GWD/MTU except for smaller time steps at both the beginning and end of an operating cycle.

2.2.4 AXIAL SHAPE ANALYSIS MODEL The axial shape analysis consists of axial oscillation power data generated by SIMULATE-3. Axial oscillations are induced in the SIMULATE-3 model by turning off the Doppler feedback and initiating a xenon oscillation. The oscillation is initiated by inserting and withdrawing the lead bank while cycling the reactor power level. This output is fed into the ASAS computer program which processes the pin power distribution data and formats it for use in the calculation of i reactor protection system setpoints. ASAS uses the SIMULATE-3 power data along with assembly-wise excore detector view factors to get the excore detector response.

3.0 APPLICATION OF PHYSJCS METHODS The previous section focused on the reactor physics codes and models used by 0 PPD to explicitly model the FCS reactor. In this section, calculations of the various core parameters used in the safety analysis are described. The primary core parameters considered are the integrated radial and planar radial peaking factors (FR and Fxy), the moderator temperature coefficient of reactivity, the fuel temperature or Doppler coefficient of reactivity, the neutron kinetics parameters, CEA drop data, CEA ejection data, CEA scram reactivity worth, reactivity insertion for the steam line break cooldown, radial peaking data for the asymmetric steam generator event, and axial power distributions. The methods used to develop biases and uncertainties for this document are consistent with previously submitted and NRC-approved OPPD methods.

3.1 RADIAL PEAKING FACTORS The integrated radial and planar radial peaking factors, Fn and Fxy, are calculated using the 3-D SIMULATE-3 model. Values of Fa and Fxy for both unrodded and rodded core configurations are obtained directly from the SIMULATE-3 power distribution. The SIMULATE-3 model incorporates a pin power correction to implicitly account for the peaking of the thermal flux in the CEA guide tubes (water holes). The values of Fn and Fxy in SIMULATE-3 for l I

unrodded and rodded cores are reported as core peaking edits. SIMULATE-3 calculates Fa based on the axial integration of the planar power distribution.

SIMULATE-3 also calculates Fxy for each plane to obtain the maximum core Fxy.

The measurement uncertainties using the CECOR code for the pin peaking factors are given in Reference 3-1.

The reactor physics models are used to calculate the expected values of Fa and Fxy. The actual values of Fa and Fxy used in the safety analysis are chosen I to conservatively bound those anticipated during the core life.  !

3.2 REACTIVITY COEFFICIENTS i The 3-D SIMULATE-3 model is used to calculate the moderator temperature I coefficient (MTC) and the fuel temperature coefficient (FTC). The MTC is defined as the reactivity change associated with a change in moderator inlet OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 12 of 81 i l

l

temperature divided by the change in the averaged moderator temperature. The FTC or Doppler coefficient is defined as the reactivity change associated with a uniform change in the fuel temperature divided by the change in the averaged fuel temperature. Both the MTC and FTC calculations first must perform a reference statepoint calculation at base input conditions. The cross-sections and discontinuity factors are then evaluated at the reference conditions except for the perturbation variable which is altered by a user defined amount. A perturbation calculation is then performed, and the coefficients are evaluated based upon the following equation:

Ap = An Unit change ACH where Ap = b K,",'

K, and Kref =

reference Ke rr Kp =

perturbed Kert and ACH = PAVG - PRAVG where PAVG = Volume weighted average of the perturbed parameter PRAVG = Volume weighted average of the perturbed parameter at reference conditions i 1

l The value used for the MTC and FTC perturbations is +5 F.

The reduction in reactivity resulting from an increase in effective fuel  ;

temperature is determined by SIMULATE-3. Typically, runs are made at 160, g 130, 70 and 40 percent power to get a series of points of fuel temperature '

coefficient versus fuel temperature while holding moderator temperature and g density and nuclide concentrations constant. These points are then fitted to l a linear curve to determine the FTC at any fuel temperature.

1 The physics models are used to calculate the expected values of the MTC and  !

l FTC throughout the cycle. The actual values of the MTC and FTC used in the j safety analysis are chosen to conservatively bound expected values of these l parameters. The measurements of the MTC made during the operation of the reactor include uncertainties to assure that the actual MTC does not exceed the values used in the safety analysis.

3.3 NEUTRON KINETICS PARAMETERS The data required for point kinetics parameters are generated in SIMULATE-3 by performing spatial integrals over the fueled portion of the 3-D model.

Cross sections derived in this manner preserve the core-averaged group-wise reaction rates, leakage rates, and eigenvalue when substituted into the two group point-reactor diffusion equations. The adjoint flux is used as a weighting function in the definition of the kinetics data.

3.4 DROPPED CEA DATA The neutronics data unique to the dropped CEA analysis are the values of Fa following the drop of a CEA and the reactivity worth of the dropped CEA. The values of Fn increase due to a large azimuthal tilt caused by the drop of a CEA and occur on the side of the core opposite the dropped CEA. The distortion factor is defined as the ratio of the assembly Fa at a given power level and time in core life containing a dropped CEA to the same assembly FR without a dropped CEA.

The distortion factor and dropped CEA reactivity worth are calculated using the 3-D SIMULATE-3 model. The 3-D Fa distortion factor is calculated for a g specific CEA insertion and power level. The " post-drop" value of Fn, using the 3-D Fa distortion factor, is calculated by multiplying the " pre-drop" value of Fa for the particular CEA insertion and power level by the 3-D Fa distortion factor. The 3-D SIMULATE-3 " post-drop" power distributions are g calculated with fuel temperature and moderator temperature feedback. The calculations assume that the core average Axial Shape Index (AS.O is being controlled within the " constant ASI" limits in accordance with !.he FCS g Operating Manual .

3.5 CEA EJECTION DATA l The neutronics data unique to the CEA ejection analysis are values for the pre-ejected and post-ejected radial peaking factors and the reactivity worth of the ejected CEA. The maximum post-ejection radial peaking factor and maximum ejected CEA reactivity worths are calculated for the maximum CEA insertion allowed by the PDIL at HFP and HZP. The neutronics parameters are calculated using HFP and HZP 3-D SIMULATE-3 models. The post-ejection radial l OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 14 of 81

peaking factor, the 3-D peaking factor (Fg) and the ejected CEA reactivity -

worth are obtained directly from SIMULATE-3 calculations. SIMULATE-3 post-ejection power distributions are calculated without moderator or fuel temperature feedback.

3.6 [fA_RfACTIVITY The CEA reactivity calculations performed in the reload core safety analyses are the calculation of the total reactivity of CEAs inserted into the core during a reactor trip (CEA scram reactivity), the generation of the scram reactivity curves, and the calculation of required shutdown margin.

The CEA scram reactivity worth at HZP is calculated by obtaining the net worth for all CEAs between the HZP PDIL CEA position and the fully inserted positic;1, and subtracting the worth of the highest worth stuck CEA. These calculations are done using the 3-D SIMULATE-3 model. The HZP CEA scram reactivity for the CEA ejection transient is calculated in a similar fashion, l

except that the worths of the ejected and highest worth stuck CEAs are subtracted from the net worth. .

4 The scram CEA worth at HFP is calculated by obtaining the HFP net worth for all CEAs between the HFP PDIL CEA position and the fully inserted position, subtracting the worth of the highest worth stuck CEA and subtracting the moderator void collapse allowance. The thermal hydraulic axial gradient i reduction ellowance and the loss of worth between HFP and HZP are also i subtracted from the HFP net worth for the scram CEA worth to be used in all l 1

transients except the four pump loss of flow event and the main steam line l break accident. These are not applied to the four pump loss of flow scram l CEA worth because the closest approach to the SAFDL during the four pump loss l of flow event occurs prior to significant CEA insertion. These allowances l are not applied to the main steam line break (MSLB) incident HFP CEA scram  !

worth because the HFP MSLB reactivity insertion curves implicitly account for i these effects.

The axial thermal hydraulic reactivity effects for HFP to HZP transients are accounted for by measuring the change in reactivity resulting from collapsing a 3-D distributed moderator temperature to a 3-D flat moderator temperature l profile. This is done by setting the power in a SIMULATE-3 case to HZP from l OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 15 of 81

a HFP input file and allowing only fuel temperature to feedback. In the next case, the core average moderator temperature from the HFP case is input to the HZP case as the inlet temperature and the fuel temperature are frozen, i only allowing the moderator density and temperature to feedback. The bounding values at Beginning-of-Cycle (BOC) and End-of-Cycle (EOC) are used for calculation of scram worths for transient analyses.

The generation of the scram reactivity curves uses the methodology discussed in Reference 3-2. l The calculation of the required shutdown margin is only performed at HZP since the shutdown margin at power is controlled by the PDIL. The available HZP shutdown margin is equivalent to the HZP CEA scram reactivity.

3.7 CEA WITHDRAWAL DATA l The reactor core physics data unique to the CEA withdrawal analysis is the maximum differential CEA worth. This is the maximum amount of reactivity at any time in core life that can be added to the core per inch of CEA motion.

[

] This calculation produces a more conservative estimate of the expected maximum differential worth than previous methods.

This maximum differential worth is then combined with the maximum CEA withdrawal rate of 46 inches / minute to arrive at the maximum reactivity insertion rate.

3.8 REACTIVITY INSERTION FOR MAIN STEAM LINE BREAK C00LDOWN The reactor core physics data unique to the main steam line break accident analysis is the reactivity insertion due to the cooldown of the moderator.

There are two sources of this reactivity insertion. The first is the positive reactivity insertion due to the increasing density of the moderator as the cooldown progresses. The second is the reactivity _ insertion due to the FTC as the effective fuel temperature changes.

Reactivity insertions due to increases in the moderator density and FTC changes are both calculated using a full core SIMULATE-3 model . The axial leakage or buckling is adjusted such that the MTC calculated by the SIMULATE-3 model corresponds to the most negative Technical Specification limit. The reactivity insertion calculations are performed with all CEAs except the most reactive CEA inserted in the core.

The moderator density reactivity insertion curve for the HZP main steam line g break case is calculated by successively lowering the inlet temperature of the SIMULATE-3 model from 532 F and allowing only moderator temperature g feedback in the model. The calculations typically result in a curve of reactivity insertion versus moderator temperature from a HZP temperature of g 532 F to 212 F.

The Doppler reactivity insertion for the HZP case bounds the value of the reactivity insertion calculated by SIMULATE-3 for the FTC. The fuel temperature feedback in the model allows the production of a curve of Doppler reactivity as a function of fuel temperature. All zero power calculations are performed assuming there is no decay heat and no credit is taken for local voiding in the region of the stuck CEA.

The moderator density reactivity insertion curve for the full power case is calculated by decreasing the power level and core average average coolant temperature from full power to the HZP inlet temperature and then successively lowering the inlet temperature as in the HZP case. Only moderator temperature feedback is used in the SIMULATE-3 model.

Since the moderator reactivity insertion curve corresponds to an MTC that is i at the Technical Specification limit, no additional uncertainty is added to ,

this curve.

3.10 AXIAL SHAPE ANALYSIS CALCULATIONS The ASAS data input to the setpoint analysis includes axial power distribution, power-to-fuel design limits, axial shape, rod bank insertion, excore detector response, FZ , Fn and the location of the Fz and Fn peaks.

Uncertainties for these parameters are applied in the calculation of setpoints consistent with Reference 3-3, except for the Fn uncertainty which is applied consistent to the methods described in Reference 3-4.

A description of the SIMULATE-3 code is presented in section 2.1.5. The use of a single physics model (i.e., SIMULATE-3) for the generation of the power-to-fuel design limit simplifies the analysis and results in a more detailed modelling of axial transients.

4.0 BENCHMARK Of CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 MODELS OPPD has performed extensive benchmarking of the CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 neutronics models used in the reload core analyses. The measured data base consists of data from the five most recent low power physics startup tests (Cycles 11,12,13,14 and 15) and from normal operations during the four most recently completed operating cycles (Cycles 11,12,13,14), as well as from the current operating cycle (Cycle 15) at FCS.

For the critical boron concentrations, isothermal temperature coefficients and control rod worths, 95/95 probability / confidence limits were calculated.

The probability / confidence limits were applied to the indicated CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 results such that there is a 95 percent probability with a 95 percent confidence that the calculated values will conservatively bound the measured (i .e. , "true") values. For the assembly pin peaking factors, biases for the SIMULATE-3 predictions were established to duplicate the MC predictions that are consistent with previously NRC-approved OPPD methods.

The results of the previous OPPD verification efforts were reported in References 4-1 through 4-4.

4.1 CRITICAL BORON CONCENTRATION SIMULATE-3 Critical Boron Concentration (CBC) predictions were compared to low power physics startup test measurements (zera power) and full power operating measurements. The zero power startup test measurements were taken during the five most recent operating cycle startups (Cycles 11 through 15) under well controlled conditions without significant thermal and xenon feedbacks. Both unrodded and rodded configurations are represented in the zero power startup test measurement data base. The full power measurement data were collected during the four most recently completed operating cycles (Cycles 11 through 14) and part of the current operating cycle (Cycle 15).

Table 4-1 summarizes the comparison of the zero power SIMULATE-3 CBC predictions with the low power physics CBC measuremni.s. Zero power startup predictions from rs0CS are also included to povide an additional comparison.

The BOC, HZP SIMULATE-3 CBC predictions, both unrodded and rodded, compare favorably with the corresponding zero power startup CBC measurements.

Figures 4-1 through 4-5 provide comparisons of the HFP SIMULATE-3 CBC predictions with the CBC at power measurements. The CBC measured data were l

OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 19 of 81

adjusted for control rod insertions and deviations from full power, equilibrium conditions. The HFP SIMULATE-3 CBC predictions show excellent agreement with the CBC rundown measurements.

In an effort to demonstrate OPPD's ability to predict boron concentrations for shutdown margin requirements at cold conditions (68 F to 532 F) with CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3, the Babcock & Wilcox (B&W) cold critical experiments from References 4-5and4-6weremodelledby0PPDwithCASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3. OPPD's SIMULATE-3 prediction of eK rf is consistent between the Fort Calhoun Station model at HZP and the results from the B&W reports. These results are also consistent with the work performed by Studsvik (Reference 4-7). Thus, the conclusion from these comparisons is that OPPD can adequately and conservatively determine the minimum boron concentrations for shutdown margin using SIMULATE-3.

4.2 ISOTHERMAL TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT SIMULATE-3 Isothermal Temperature Coefficient (ITC) predictions were compared to low power physics startup test measurements (zero pcwer) and at power operating measurements. The zero power startup test measurements were taken during the five most recent operating cycle startups (Cycles 11 through 15).

The at power measurement data were collected during the four most recently completed operating cycles (Cycles 11 through 14) and part of the current operating cycle (Cycle 15).

Table 4-2 summarizes the comparison of the zero power SIMULATE-3 ITC predictions with the low power physics ITC measurements. Zero power startup predictions from ROCS are also included to provide an additional comparison.

The BOC, HZP SIMULATE-3 ITC predictions compare favorably with the zero power startup ITC measurements.

Table 4-3 provides a comparison of the at power SIMULATE-3 ITC predictions with the ITC measurements. The at power measurements were taken during each  !

of the at power MTC test programs required by Technical Specifications. )

At power ITC predictions from ROCS are also included as an additional I compari son . The at power SIMULATE-3 ITC predictions show good agreement with the ITC at power measurements.

OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 20 of 81

4.3 EQWER COEFFICIENT SIMULATE-3 Power Coefficient (PC) predictions were compared to at power measurements collected during the four most recent operating cycles (Cycles 11 through 14) and a portion of the current operating cycle (Cycle 15).

Table 4-4 summarizes the comparison of the at power SIMULATE-3 PC predictions l with the at-power PC measurements. The at power PC measurements were taken  !

during each of the at power MTC test programs required by Technical Specifications. At power PC predictions from ROCS are also included to provide an additional comparison. The at power SIMULATE-3 PC predictions  ;

compare favorably with the at power PC measured data.

4.4 CONTROL RQQ_ WORTH SIMULATE-3 Control Element Assembly (CEA) group worth predictions were compared to measurements from low power physics tests since Cycle 11. Tables 4-5 through 4-9 summarize the comparison of the low power physics startup test SIMULAfE-3 predictions with the zero power startup test measurements.

Low power physics CEA worth predictions from ROCS are also included as an additional comparison. The low power physics startup test SIMULATE-3 CEA Worth predictions show excellent agreement with the zero power startup test CEA worth measurements.

4.5 ASSEMBLY RELATIVE POWER DISTRIBUTIONS SIMULATE-3 predictions for assembly power distributions, both radially and axially, were compared to core follow data starting with Cycle 11. Figures 4-6 through 4-18 summarize the comparison between the axially integrated CECOR assembly relative power density (RPD) measurements with the SIMULATE-3 assembly RPD predictions at nominal power levels for BOC, Middle-Of-Cycle (MOC), and EOC conditions. These figures show comparisons for only the assemblies containing in-core instruments. Limiting the comparison to the assembly locations containing in-core instruments provides the most direct comparison to actual assembly powers and limits the amount of ROCS-based information. By doing so, the comparison between the SIMULATE-3 predictions and CECOR measurements in only in-core instrumented locations represents a more accurate benchmark of the SIMULATE-3 FCS model. The comparisons show OPPD-NA-8302-NP, Rev. 04 Page 21 of 81

good agreement between the CECOR RPD measurements and SIMULATE-3 RPD predictions.

I Figures 4-19 through 4-31 summarize the comparison between the normalized CECOR axial power distribution measurements with the SIMULATE-3 axial power distribution predictions at nominal power levels for B0C, MOC and E0:'

conoitions. The comparisons show consistent agreement between the CECOR axial power measurements and SIMULATE-3 axial power predictions.

4.6 ASSEMBLY PIN PEAKING FACTORS SIMULATE-3 predictions for integrated radial peaking factors (Fn), planar radial peaking factors (Fxy) and 3-D peaking factors (Fg) were compared to CECOR pin peaking factors from core follow data starting with Cycle 11.

Figures 4-32 through 4-36 summarize the comparison between CECOR maximum Fn measurements and SIMULATE-3 peak Fa predictions. Figures 4-37 through 4-41 summarize the comparison between CECOR maximum Fxy measurements and SIMULATE-3 peak Fxy predictions. Figures 4-42 through 4-46 summarize the comparison between CECOR maximum Fg measurements and SIMULATE-3 peak Fn predictions. The SIMULATE-3 predictions were based upon full power operations, while the CECOR measurements include nominal full power data as well as off-nominal power level pin peaking values. All CECOR measurement data included a component for tilt. Peaking factor spikes from the CECOR measured data occur during power reductions and are considered normal. The comparisons show good agreement between the CECOR maximum pin power measurements and SIMULATE-3 maximum pin power predictions.

4.7 S1!MMARY OPPD continues to maintain an ongoing neutronics methodology verification program. Verification of program segments include information consisting of zero power startup physics testing predictions, reactor at power testing analyses and core follow efforts. The results of this verification program for previous cycles demonstrate the ability of OPPD personnel to use the CASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3 neutronics methods described in this document.

5.0 CONCLUSION

S Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) has performed extensive benchmarking to incorporate the CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer code system into neutronics design methods for Fort Calhoun Station Unit No. 1. This effort consisted of comparisons of core physics predictions to measurements from previous Fort Calhoun Station operating cycles. The results of this benchmark program for previous operating cycles demonstrate the ability of OPPD to use the CASMO-3/ SIMULATE-3 neutronics methods described in this document.

OPPD has continually demonstrated its ability to perform core neutronics calculations for reload core analysis as documented in References 5-1 through 5-4. Based upon the analyses and results contained in this document, as well as OPPD's current ability to perform neutronics reload analyses, OPPD l 1

concludes that the methodology using CASM0-3/ SIMULATE-3 computer code system i applies to all steady-state reactor physics calculations. The accuracy of this methodology is sufficient for use in licensing applications, reload design depletion analyses, reactor physics safety analyses, startup physics predictions, core physics databooks, and reactor protection system and monitoring system setpoint upgrades.
