REVIEW OF DRATT STATUS

SUMMARY

REPORT FOR NRR GENERIC TECHNICAL ACTIVITIES Attached is a draft of the Status Summary Report for NRR Generic Technical Activities (the so-called Rainbow Book). This draft is being distributed for your comment.

Your comments should be restricted at this time to comments on tne format and type of information presented in the book. Sug-gestions for modifications or additions should be provided to Mike Aycock by(COB, December 16, 1977 I am not requesting comments on the specific task schedules in the book at this time. As agreed to by the Technical Activities Steer.

ing Committee, branches participating in the tasks will get an opportunity to evaluate the impact of the combined manpower demands for these tasks before finalizing schedules. This will be done by providing each participating branch with Manpower Loading Reports reflecting upcoming milestones for the majority of the Category A tasks plus upcoming milestones for casework and other activities.

Review of these Manpower Loading Reports should identify impacted branches and allow decisions to be made regarding the need for schedule adjustments. We expect to hive Mtnpower 1.oading Reports available the week of December 12, 1977 fo!!owing a further exchange of information between the Task Managers and OMIPC.

i TASK ACTION PLAN TASK NUMBER A-39

Title:

Determination of Safety Relief Valve (SRV) Pool Dynamic Loads and Temperature Limits for BWR Containment Lead Responsibility - Division of Systems Safety /NRR Lead Assistant Director - R. L. Tedesco (Plant Systems)

Task Manager: T. M. Su (Containment Systems Branch) (1)

1. Program

Description:

BWR plants are equipped with relief valves that discharge into the wetwell. Upon relief valve actuation, the initial air column j within the SRV discharge line is accelerated by the high pressure I steam flow a'-d expands as it is released into the pool as a high pressure air bubble. The high rate of air and steam injection flow l

in the pool followed by expansion and contraction of the bubble as it

! rises to the pool surface produces pressure oscillations on the pool boundary. This effect is referred to as the air-clearing phenomenon.

Experience at several BWR plants with pressure suppression containments ,

1 has shown that damage to certain wetwell internal structures. can occur I

, during safety / relief valve (SRV) blowdowns as a result of air clearing and steam quenching vibration phenomena. .

1 In addition to the boundary loads; e.g., containment structures, reactor pedestal, the air injection and subsequent bubble motion produces pressure waves and water movement within the pool that produce drag i loads on components in the pool.

J . .

1 I

i

2-Following the air-clearing phase, pure steam is infected into the pool. Condensation oscillations occur during this time period.

However, the amplitudes of these vibrations are relatively small at low pool temperatures. Continued blowdown into the pool will increase the pool temparsture until a threshold temperature is reached. At this point, steam condensation becomes unstable. Vibrations and forces can increase by a factor of 10 or more if the SRV continues to blow down.

This effect is referred to as the steam quenching vibration phenomenon.

Current practice for BWR operating plants is to restrict the allowable operating temperature envelope via technical specifications such that the threshold temperature is not reached.

  • In response to the concern on relief valve loads, letters were sent in 1975 to all licensees of operating BWR plants requesting that they report on the potential magnitude of relief valve loads, and on the structural capability of the suppression chamber and internal structures to tolerate such loads. In addition, consideration of these loads has become an integral part of our review of CP and OL plant applications l

for all BWR pressure suppression containments (i.e., Mark I, II and III), 1 l As a result of the generic concerns, owner's groups were formed by both Mark I and !! utilities. Through these groups, integrated generic analytical and experimental programs have been developed to address the subject of SRV loads.

2-1 Recently, GE issued a Part 21 notification related to consecutive actuation of multiple safety / relief valves and concomitant load i

)

increases for BWR Mark III water pressure-suppression containments.

i This concern resulted from a recent study performed by GE of the (1) primary system pressure response following an isolation event. The result's showed that more than one safety relief valve could be lI

! actuated consecutively, as a result of a reactor isolation event.

This SRV load combination has not' been considered in the design.

l

Discussions with GE have also revealed that this concern is generic to all BWR containments,a~(  % Qww M{@ . C' - a-ppwLw.g -

As a result of this finding, GE has developed a program for @"b W

resolution specifically for Mark III. However, they believe this resolution can be appl' ed generically to all BWR systems.

2. Plan for problem Resolution:

A. Approach The staff will review and evaluate the results from the Mark I and II programs conducted'by the owner's groups and related programs conducted by General Electric Co. (GE).

The approach taken by the owner's e aups consists of a number of comprehensive experimental and analytical programs to establish and justify the SRV-related pool dynamic loads for BWR Mark I and II designs. In addition, prototypical in-plant testing is proposed to confirm Mark III SRV loads.

For both the air-clearing-induced loads and the drag loads on submerged structures, the Mark I and II programs are based on the

~

development of analytical models which will be confirmed with test data. A ser:es of experimental programs are underway to provide this data base for model verification. Because of differences between the Mark I, II and III designs, the composite program which will be reviewed by the staff consists of both programs common to all BWR designs and programs unique to particular SRV discharge line configurations.

l g

_4 s

With respect to drag loads on submerged structures for both SRV and LOCA events, a generic analytical model is under development by GE which will be used for all BWR designs. For loads induced by air clearing, separate analytical models are under development to describe the two different types of discharge nozzles of the relief valve discharge lines; a ramshead model and a quencher model. The ramshead is a " Tee" fitting, whereas the quencher is a multi-branch diffuser type of nozzle.

The ramshead model under development by GE is jointly sponsored by both the Mark I and Mark II owner's groups. In-plant tests at Monticello will provide the necessary confirming data base.

The basic quencher analytical model also under development by G2 will be common to both Mark I and II programs. However, the confirming data bases are different. This is due to configurational differences in the SRV end device. In-plant tests to be conducted at the Caorso facility in Italy are proposed by the Mark II owner's group as the confirming data base, while, in-plant tests to be conducted at Monticello are proposed by the Mark I owner's group as the confirming data base.

-4a-Plans to use a quencher device rather than a ramshead is being proposed for Mark II type plants. The type of quencher, however, will be different from that currently proposed for Mark III,and

_ _.  :: _ _ cr_ n . ..:es. The quencher design is now being developed and will be tested in Germany by KWU. 'Je have h;d di ;.;sises wift the pplicant an'd b ieve that,.the staff' effort for the ' review

With regard to the concern of multiple SRV's subsequent actuations, GE is currently proposing several alternatives which are aimed to U) eliminate the possibility of actuating more than one SRV consecutively following a most severe isolation event. These alternatives, however, have been discussed exclusively for the Mark III containments. As GE indicated, some of these alternatives could be also applicable for Mark I and II containments. GE will submit detailed descriptions and justifications for the approach selected from these alternatives which is considered to meet all design requirements. We will review and evaluate the information and determine its applicability for the Mark III containments.

e e .

-4b-For Mark I containments, we have established a short term and long

~

term program for resolution of this particular concern. For the I

short term, efforts of review of the justification for continued operation are included in the task action plan, " Mark I Containment Long Term Program." The long term program for resolution of this concern, however, is included in this task action plan. We will review (1

and evaluate the approach and justification supplied by GE and the Mark I owners group for plants in' operation and plants which have n]t yet been licensed for operation. With respect to Mark Il containment, we have requested each Mark II applicants to provide justification for their plant design to meet the load requirements for multiple SRVs subsequent a:cuation.

The proposed program conducted by GE to address the elevated pool temperature concern for the ramshead device is based on the experimental determination of the threshold temperature. Current technical specifications for operating Mark I plants restricting pla'nt operation below this limit would be sufficient to satisfy this concern. GE plans to documen these additional data to support the current temperature limit in the near future for staff review.

B. End Products The program as outlined consists of four major tasks, described below.

Upon completion of each task, a NUREG report will be issued. In some cases, this may take the form of input into a more general report (e.g., input into the overall Mark II NUREG report prepared as part of Task A-8). Each NUREG report will be generic in nature outlining the acceptable methodology to be used for computation of plant specific loads.

In addition to the final report, interim acceptance criteria may be necessary to properly interface with both the Mark I and Mark II generic programs. Reports will be issued to the appropriate task manager if such action is necessary. The enclosed detailed schedule , indicates those areas where such an intermediate report may be required. The actual need will be determined when mo're definite schedules are established on the individual programs.

As part of the SRV program, revisions as required to the Standard Review Plan will be prepared to properly reflect the program results.

C. Tasks J'. Evaluation of Loads Criteria for Ramshead -

This task involves the review and evaluation of the analytical (I) l I

model and the supporting data base. Upon completion of the I review, acceptance criteria will be established for ramshead loads on containment structures and ' components.  !

6-

a. Evaluation of analytical model - the GE developed analytical model will be reviewed by the staff from both a theoretical and experimental viewpoint. The model will be evaluated for analytical completeness and experimental comparisons made considering the data base from both Monticello and Quad Cities in-plant tests. The actual experimental -

comparisons will be provided to the staff in topical reports supplied by GE.

j b. Evaluation of test data - Evaluation of the Monticello test data, to be supplied by GE in a topical report, will be performed by the staff within this subtask. Areas of consideration will include;

- data scatter

- error band determination

- degree of variations of principal parameters

- fluid structure interaction effects on measured loads

- applicability of test data to plant specific conditions (i.e., applicability to other Mark I designs as well as MarkIIdesigns).

Results of this investigation will be incorporated in the model-data comparisons evaluation conducted ir. Task 1.a.

7-

c. Establish Acceptance Criteria for Ramshead Load.

Based on the results of tasks 1.a and 1.b, and task 5, we will establish acceptance criteria for ramshead loads on containment structures and components. Included in the criteria are the following:

(1) Loads for single as well as multiple SRV's first actuation;

())

(2) Loads for single as well as multiple SRV's, if any, for consecutive actuations; SE'/

(3) Development f of design load cases, which will include all representative SRV operational modes; (4) Frequency and fatigue cycles for 40 years of plant life.

2. Evaluation of Loads Criteria for Quencher Evaluation and review by the staff of the analytical -cdel with the supporting data base will be performed in this task.

Currently, the various industry programs indicate that the quencher arm configuration will differ between Mark I and II designs.

However, the bubble pattern associated with each arm will be the same. Therefore, it is assumed that the analytical model j will remain essentially the same for both the Mark .I and II designs. Upon completion of the staff's review, l .

I p

acceptance criteria for quencher loads will be l (1) established. It should be noted that as part of the overall testing program, prototypical in-plant testing is planned for the Mark III quencher. This program is considered as confirmatory.

The staff effort for review of this program is included in this task but will not impact on the development of the load acceptance criteria since it is confirmatory in nature,

a. Evaluat' ion of Analytical Model -

The analytical model will be reviewed by the staff both from an analytical and empirical viewpoint. Model-to-data comparisons performed and reported by GE will form the basis of the staff's review, since the basic approach is anticipated to be similar to the methodology used in the ramshead model (seeTask1.a).

/ b. Evaluation of Caorso* Test Data Caorso :est data will be reviewed and evaluated by the staff to detemine the adequacy of the data base for confirmation of tha analytical model (Task 2.a). These data will be supplied to the staff by GE in the form of a topical report. Areas of consideration will incl'ude:

1 i - Data scatter

- Error band determination

- Degree of variation of principal parameters

- Fluid structure interaction effects on measured loads

- Applicability of test data to Mark II designs.

Results of this task will be incorporated into task 2.a.

The staff will review and evaluate the test plans, instrumentation and data of the prototypical in-plant test program. This information will be supplied to the staff by GE in a topical report. Similar considerations as delineated in task 2.b will be included,

f. Evaluation of Mark II Quencher Design The staff will review and evaluate the test programs, test data and methodology of predicting the quencher loads. The test data and methods of calculating the SRV loads will be supplied to the staff by the applicant as part of the Susquehanna licensing docket. This is the first plant to reference this design. Areas of review will include: (1)

- Data scatter

- Error band determination

- Fluid structure interaction effects on m2asured loads

- Adequacy of analytical methodology

- Applicability of test data to the real plant design

- Comparison of the Susquehanna analytical method with the generic quencher analytical method.

Results of this task will be incorporated into task 2.a.

However, a report on the result of our evaluation and ,

acceptance criteria will be issued as part of Susquehanna 1 safety evaluation. -

3. Evaluation of Submerged Structure Load Methodology -

This task involves the staff's review and evaluation of a generic analytical model to be developed by GE to compute the loads on submerged structures due to SRV actuation and LOCA. A portion of the review will involve the evaluation of supporting test data to be supplied to the staff in a topical report. Acceptable load criteria will be developed by the staff as a result of this effort.

a. Evaluation of Analytical Model -

The staff will review and evalute the generic model developed by GE to compute induced loads on components located within the suppression pool. Particular attention will be directed toward the analytical considerations of the following:

- Development of transient flow fields

- Presence of components within the flow field affecting the field

- Supporting experimental data

- Applicability to LOCA induced loads

b. Evaluation of Supporting Data Base -

The staff will review and evaluate the applicability of the data provided by GE for confirmation of the analytical program. It i is. anticipated that .the data base will consist of experimentally

. derived drag coefficients, recent data obtained from the 1/3 scale pressure suppression test facility tests and possible future tests which will be documented as part of the Mark I and II owner's group programs.

c. Develop Submerged Structure Load Methodology ' -

Based on the results of tasks 3.a and b, load acceptance critefia will be developed by the staff. These criteria will be applicable for all BWR designs.

4. Determination of Normal Plant Transient and ATWS Pool Temperature Limits - ( l'.

This task involves the staff's review and evaluation of GE-supplied supporting test data to confirm established design pool temperature limits for both normal plant transient and ATWS considerations. (1 Presently, GE has proposed a hig'her design pool temperature limit for the ATWS event, taking into account the low probability of occurrence.

The adequacy of this reduced safety margin as well as the proposed pool temperature limit for the normal plant transient will be reevaluated -(l) within this task. Although the primary emphasis will be directed towards the ramshead device, the limits for the quencher device will also be included. In addition, minimum pool temperature monitoring requirements will be determined by the staff. Upon completion of this task, a final report will .be issued by the staff summarizing our review and evaluation.

3. Scope The contractor is to provide technical expertise in the evaluation of all analytical models provided for review in all four major tasks. (Tasks la, 2a, 3a, 4b). In addition, he will provice an independent assessment of the available test data. (Tasks ib, le, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 3b, 4a). Upon the completion of each specific model or test review, a letter report will be issued to the staff for each of the above noted i task items. During the course of the review, requests for additional information will also be issued, as required.

l The contractor is also required to provide technical expertise I l

in the evaluation of task 2.f (Evaluation of Susquehanna Test Data). Upon the completion of the evaleation of the task, the contractor will issue a letter report summarizing the result. Ic should be noted that this task is not included in the current contract. , Funding for this task will be requested.

Structural Hydrodynamic Interactions Technical Assistance Programs

2. Responsible Division / Branch: Division of Operating Reactors / ,

Engineering Branch.

3. Scope '

This is a program to study hydrodynamic / structure interactions in a Mark I containment system subject to hydrodynamic loading conditions. This effort should quantify the amplification, if l

any, of measured loads due to the structural interactions during pool swell, SRV discharge, and chugging loading conditions. This

' is a common technical assistance program for Mark I, Mark II and the SRV task action plans.

4. Funding FY 1977 - 100K (NOTE: This funding represents the total program which is reflected also FY 1978 - 15K in Task A-7).
5. Interactions with Outside Organizations Mark I and Mark II Owner's Groups These groups are "ad hoc" organizations of utilities owning either Mark I or Mark II BWR facilities. They have engaged GE as their

.l program manager for resolution of the BWR containment concerns

! and have designated GE as their primary contact with the NRC during the conduct of these programs, l

i Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS)

This task is closely related to one of the generic items identified by the ACRS and, accordingly, will be coordinated with the

- committee as the task progresses.

6. Assistance Requirements from Other NRC Offices:

Requirements for assistance are not anticipated at this time.

8. potential problems A. The proposed schedules have been based to a large part on'the current estimates of receipt of key documents from both the Mark I and Mark II owner's programs.

. Since there are several test programs involved, past performance would indicate a good possibility in schedule slippages in one or two tasks. This may necessitate additional in-plant testing on lead Mark II plants prior to completion of the SRV generic program.

B. Fluid structure interaction effects are an important consideration in the evaluation of both ramshead and quencher test data. A technical assistance program has been initiated for Mark I related tasks. However, efforts to develop a similar program for Mark II considerations have just l begun. Early initiation of this program or incorporation into the existing program is required ,1f successful completion of task 2 is to be realized.

C. The current funding for technical assistance has not included the effort for reviewing and evaluating the Susquehanna test program, test data and method of predicting SRV load (Task 2.f). As we have pointed out, this effort is expected to be substantial. Additional funding is needed. We will finalize the amount of funding needed when the final scope of responsibility becomes available, and will follow the normal procedure to submit our request for approval.
