1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
The purpose of the analyses described in this report is to provide an updated analytical design basis for the Monticello DBA-LOCA containment pressure and temperature response. The results of these analyses can be used to update the licensing basis documents, including the USAR.
GE previously provided containment pressure and temperature curves for a DBA-LOCA in Reference 1. The results ofReference I were used in Section 5.2 of the Monticello USAR to show the containment pressure and temperature response for the design basis loss-of-coolant accident (DBA-LOCA). The analyses in Reference 1 used input assumptions that were s
consistent with those used for the Mark I Containment Long-Term Program (LTP). One assumption used in Reference 1 is the single active failure of one residual heat removal (RHR) cooling loop. With this assumption, one low pressure core spray (LPCS) pump is available for long-term core inventory makeup and one RHR loop is available for long-term containment cooling with one RHR heat exchanger, two RHR pumps and two sersice water (SW) pumps.
According to Northern States Power (NSP), the limiting single active failure is the loss of one standby diesel generator, which can reduce the number of pumps available for core makeup or containment cooling to three pumps. This will result in the availability of only one RHR pump and one SW pump for long-term post-LOCA containment cooling. The analysis in this report re-calculates the Monticello DBA-LOCA containment pressure and temperature response with the assumption of a single active failuie of one standby diesel generator.
1.2 Models The same models used for the Reference 1 analysis are used to perform the analysis described in this report. This includes the use of the vessel LOCA blowdown and short-term containment response model described in References 2, 3 and 4 and the LOCA long-term containment response model of Reference 5. For the long-term analysis of the DBA-LOCA, the ANS/ANS 5.1 decay heat model is used to calculate the fission product decay heat. This decay heat was added to the fission power for delayed neutron after scram, metal-water 1-1
NEDO-32418 reaction energy and fuel relaxation energy to determine the total core power after scram.
Other input values such as initial suppression pool volume and initial suppression pool temperature were selected to maximize the DBA-LOCA long-term suppression pool temperature response.
1.3 Additional Analyses The analysis of the long-term DBA-LOCA uses the minimum Technical Specification (TS) value of the suppression pool volume and vent submergence to maximize the long-term suppression pool temperature. Since these assumptions minmuze the peak DBA-LOCA drywell pressure, an additional analysis of the shon-term DBA-LOCA containment response was performed with maximum TS values of suppression pool volume and submergence. This additional analysis is used to determine the peak drywell pressure during a DBA-LOCA.
Sensitivity studies included as Appendix A to this report show (1) the effect of using a nominal value of the initial suppression pool water level on peak DBA-LOCA drywell pressure and suppression pool temperature and (2) the effect of using May-Witt decay heat on the peak suppression pool temperature.

, NEDO-32418 2.0 ASSUMPTIONS Input assumptic:ns for the DBA-LOCA analysis maintain the overall conservatism in 11 e evaluation by maximizing the suppression pool temperature for the long-term DBA-LOCA analysis and by maximizing the peak drywell pressure for the short-term DBA-LOCA analysis.
Table 2-1 provides values of key containment parameters (confirmed by NSP in Reference 6) used in the DBA-LOCA analysis. The core shutdown power used in the analyses is provided in Appendix B. The following key input assumptions are used in performing the Monticello containment DBA-LOCA pressure and temperature response analysis.
- 1. Normal operation of the plant is assumed except for the single active failure, which is the loss of a single standby diesel generator. This makes one RHR loop inoperative and reduces the number of pumps available for either core injection or pool cooling to three for any pump combination.
- 2. The reactor is assumed to be operating at is2% of the rated thermal power.
- 3. Vessel blowdown flow rates are based on the Homogeneous Equilibrium Model(Reference 2).
- 4. The core decay heat is based on ANSI /ANS-5.1-1979 decay heat (Reference 7). [For Cases 2 and A.2 in Appendix A, May-Witt decay heat (Reference 8) is used. ]
- 5. For the long-term DBA-LOCA analysis, the portion of the feedwater which maxunizes the suppression pool temperature is injected into the vessel.
- 6. Thermodynamic equilibrium exists between the liquids and gases in the drywell and between the suppression pool and the suppression chamber airspace to maximize long-term pressure.
2-1
- 7. The instantaneous guillotine break of the recirculation suction line is used as the worst case break.
- 8. The RHR intertie is present during the break and is included in the DBA-LOCA break size calculation.
- 9. For the long-term DBA-LOCA analysis, the initial suppression pool volume is at the minimum Technical Specification (TS) limit to maximize the calculated suppression pool temperature.
The corresponding subme.gence is 3.0 ft.
- 10. For the short-term DBA-LOCA analysis, the initial suppression pool volume is at the maximum TS limit to maximize the calculated peak drywell pressure. The corresponding submergence is 3.58 ft.
- 11. The drywell airspace is initially at the nominal temperature of 135'F and 20% relative humidity.
- 12. The wetwell airspace is initially equal to the initial suppression pool temperature of 90 F and at the maximum relative humidity of100%
- 13. The service water temperature is at the maximum value 90 F to maximize the suppression pool temperature.
- 14. The initial drywell and suppression chamber pressure are at the maximum expected operating values to maximize the containment pressure.
- 15. The initial suppression pool temperature is at the maximum TS value (90 F) to maximize the calculated suppression pool temperature.
- 16. The Emergency-Core-Cooling System (ECCS) starts injecting at 30 seconds.
2-2
- 17. For the first 600 seconds, ECCS consists of one core spray pump and two LPCI pumps. After 600 seconds ECCS consists ofone core spray pump.
- 18. At 600 seconds suppression pool cooling is initiated. This is accomplished by switching one LPCI pump to suppression pool cooling and by turning off one LPCI pump and initiating one SW pump for suppression pool cooling.
- 20. Passive heat sinks in the drywell, suppression chamber airspace and suppression pool are conservatively neglected to maximize the suppression pool temperature. Heat transfer from the primary containment to the reactor building is also conservatively neglected.
- 21. Drywell fan coolers are inactive (non-safety equipment).
- 22. Control Rod drive flow is zero (non-safety equipment).
- 23. All core spray and LPCI/ RHR pumps have 100% of their horsepower rating converted to a pump heat input which is added either to the RPV liquid or suppression pool water.

NEDO-32418 3.0 CONTAINMENT PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE RESPONSE -
3.1 DBA-LOCA Long-Term Pressure and Temperature (Case 1)
The long-term containment response to a postulated recirculation line beak is illustrated in Figures 3-1 to 3-3. To cover the peak pool temperature, the analyses are extended to one million seconds (about 11.6 days).
For this transient, the reactor quickly blows down due to the large break size. The vessel pressure drops too rapidly for the High Pressure Coolant Injection system to supply any makeup water. At the time of the break, it is assumed that the offsite AC power is lost with the limiting single active failure of one standby diesel generator. The Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) power must therefore be supplied by the remaining diesel generator.
This causes a delay of about 30 seconds before rated ECCS flow is available.
Figure 3-1 shows the expected pressure in the drywell and pressure suppression chamber (wetwell). After the vessel is flooded, ECCS flow cascades from the break and quenches the steam in the drywell. The wetwell-to-drywell vacuum breakers open and allow air to return to .
the drywell. At approximately 114 seconds into the accident, the pressures in the two chambers are essentially equal and remain equal for the remainder of the transiem.
The drywell temperature response is plotted in Figure 3-2. Figure 3-3 gives the suppression pool temperature response. The wetwell airspace is assumed to be in thermal equilibrium with the suppression pool.
Table 3-1 lists the maximum pressures and temperatures expected in the containment for this accident. For the drywell compartment, the maxunum pressure and temperature occur early in the transient during the blowdown phase. At this time, the inertial effects of the flow in the vent system cause the drywell to remain at a much greater pressure than the wetwell. These high pressures are quickly dissipated as shown in Figure 3-1.
It should be noted that the value of the peak drywell pressure in Table 3-1 for Case 1 is slightly lower than that found in NEDO-30477 (Reference 7). This is because the input assumptions used for Case 1 (including the use of minimum water suppression pool water j volume) were to maxunize the peak suppression pool temperature, while the purpose of 4
3- 1
NEDO-32418 NEDO-30477 is to maximize the peak drywell nressure. The effect of using maximum water level on peak drywell pressure is discussed in Sei ta 3.2.
The wetwell experiences its maximum pressure and temperature later in the transient (at approximately 9 hours1.041667e-4 days <br />0.0025 hours <br />1.488095e-5 weeks <br />3.4245e-6 months <br />). The suppression pool continues to heat up due to decay heat from the reactor. The heat is transferred to the pool by the steam and ECCS water coming out of the reactor and flowing through the vent system. Eventually, the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System is able to tum the transient around and remove the heat from the pool faster than it is added. This turn-around point corresponds to the maximum suppression pool temperature.
One option that the operator has is to align the RHR System in the containment spray mode.
This would quench the steam in the containment airspace and rapidly drop the temperature and pressure. It is conservative to neglect this option when maximizing the containment pressure response.
3.2 DBA-LOCA Short-Term Pressure and Temperature (Case 2)
Figures 3-4 and 3-5 show the short-term (here defmed as 0- 30 seconds) DBA-LOCA pressure and temperature response, assuming the suppression pool level and vent submergence are initially at the TS value for high water level (HWL).
With the assumption of HWL, the pressure required to clear the water initially in the submerged portion of the downcomer increases. This results in an increase in the drywell pressure response. Use of HWL for determining peak drywell pressure is consistent with the assumptions used during the Mark I Containment Long-Term Program (Reference 9) and the input assumptions for the containment analysis of Reference 10. May-Witt decay heat is also assumed for this case, to be consistent with the analyses of References 9 and 10.
The results for Case 2 are summarized in Table 3-1. An increase in the peak drywell pressure of 0.3 psi relative to the value for Case 1 is indicated due to the higher initial water level and submergence.

APPENDIX A ADDITIONAL ANALYSES OF DBA-LOCA i
The results of sensitivity analyses of the DBA-LOCA are presented here. Two cases are included which determined: (1) the DBA-LOCA long-term containment response with the suppression pool initially at normal water level (NWL) and (2) the DBA-LOCA long-term l 1
containment response with the use ofMay-Witt decay heat.
Table A-1 summarizes the key inputs and analyses results for Cases A.1 and A.2.
i The results of Case A.1 show that an increase in the initial water level to NWL produces a slight increase in the peak drywell pressure and a slight decrease in the peak suppression pool temperature.
The results of Case A.2 quantify the effect ofusing May-Witt instead of ANS 5.1. The higher f decay heat with May-Witt relative to ANS 5 increases the integrated energy deposited to the suppression pool, which results in a higher peak suppression pool temperature. Use of May-Witt decay heat instead of ANS 5.1 decay heat has negligible impact on the DBA-LOCA' short-term peak drywell pressure and temperature. ,
