1.0 INTRODUCTION
By letter dated October 11, 2018, Duke Energy submitted a license amendment request for Brunswick Steam Electric Plant, Units 1 and 2 (Brunswick) to allow application of the Framatome analysis methodologies necessary to support a planned transition to ATRIUM 11 fuel under the currently licensed Maximum Extended Load Line Limit Analysis Plus (MELLLA+) operating domain, Reference 1 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML18284A395). Upon review of the submittal, the NRC staff provided requests for additional information (RAIs) in an email dated 5/9/19 (ML19135A307, Reference 2). This report provides responses to a subset of these RAIs.
The proprietary information in this document is marked with double brackets such as

NRC RAI 2. Discuss how the gap conductance sensitivity will be addressed when fuel design changes occur and provide results for ATRIUM-11 fuel.
Response 2:
An ATRIUM 11 gap sensitivity study has been performed. For this study, ((
))
In the future, if a fuel design beyond ATRIUM 11 is introduced, the gap conductance for the new fuel design will either be justified to be sufficiently similar to the ATRIUM 11 (i.e.
minimal rod changes) or a new gap conductance sensitivity will be performed.

Controlled Document Framatome Inc. ANP-3782NP Revision 1 Brunswick ATRIUM 11 Advanced Methods Response to Request for Additional Information Page 2-3 NRC RAI 3. Confirm that the steam line and valve modeling options accurately capture the expected plant-specific system performance during ATWS-I events.
Response 3:
The steam line and SRVs were modeled consistent with expected performance.
((
))
It is also noted that the modeling of these valve characteristics can have a noticeable effect on the onset of instability which can impact the timing of the event. For Brunswick, ((
)) The overall impact on the PCT for Brunswick due to the cycling of the valves is minimal ((
)).
NRC RAI 4. Provide a justification that the ATWS-I analyses based on the reference core will bound all expected future core designs. As part of this discussion, address transition cores and core design specific considerations that may affect local stability characteristics, such as nodal variations, control rod patterns, and operating strategies.
Response 4:
For ATWS-I analyses the most conservative result will occur when ((

((
))
Therefore, the ATRIUM 11 ATWS-I analysis for Brunswick contains sufficient conservatism to bound follow-on cycles.
NRC RAI 5. Two events are considered potentially limiting in the ATWS-I transient scenario: two reactor pump trip (2RPT) and turbine trip with bypass (TTWB). Brunswick analyzed the TTWB event and, since instability and dryout/rewet occurred, the 2RPT event was unanalyzed per the Calculational Procedure in Section 8.0 of the submittal. In order to assure the limiting event was analyzed, provide results for the 2RPT ATWS-I event, with justification given for the operator action time assumptions used. Certain changes in plant design or operation may affect stability behavior for these events. Discuss how the TTWB event will be confirmed to remain limiting relative to the 2RPT event if changes are made to the plant design or operation that may affect stability behavior during anticipated transient without scram (ATWS), such as: turbine bypass capability, fraction of steam-driven feedwater pumps, and changes expected to increase core inlet subcooling during ATWS events.
Response 5:
Section 7 of ANP-3694P (Attachment 14a of the subject LAR) provides Brunswick TTWB and 2RPT results for ATRIUM 10XM. A review of the results shows ((

NRC RAI 6. Justify that the selected settings and modeling options are appropriate, including core and vessel nodalization, time step control parameters, and noise parameters. Discuss how the modeling is consistent with the characteristics of Brunswick and the validation basis for the proposed RAMONA5-FA ATWS-I methodology.
Response 6:
All benchmarks and analyses provided in ANP-3694P utilized consistent vessel nodalization and time step control parameters. Since these values were used in the benchmarking of the code, and the benchmarks showed good agreement with the data, then these values are appropriate.

ANP-3702P provides a subset of the events analyzed in the Brunswick Chapter 15 Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) and covered by the AURORA-B AOO/ATWS methodology. To ensure the methodology is implemented appropriately for the events not covered in ANP-3702P and to ensure that the analysis of these events is sufficient to meet GDCs 10, 13, 15, 20, 25, and 26 and ATWS acceptance criteria, provide the following:
- a. Describe how each Chapter 15 UFSAR event (that is covered by the AUORAB-AOO/ATWS methodology) will be analyzed in the AURORA B AOO methodology framework (e.g., a table identifying FSAR Section/Event Name/Disposition)
- b. Describe how the methodology is implemented (including steps prior to the execution of the uncertainty analysis) to ensure there is appropriate coverage of operational power/flow statepoints, equipment-out-of-service conditions, time-in-cycle, etc.
Response 9 a.:
A disposition of events is created for a reactor to establish or re-establish the licensing basis in situations like vendor transitions, fuel transitions, and significant plant configuration modifications (i.e., extended power uprate (EPU) or MELLLA+). For each transient event in the final safety analysis report (FSAR) this disposition identifies which events 1) require cycle-specific analyses, 2) are analyzed for the initial reload, and 3) are non-limiting based on first principles. The Chapter 15 disposition of events for the transition to ATRIUM 11 is given in Table 9-1.

This event can result in a turbine trip and the resulting core pressurization and reactor scram. While the steam flow at the time of the TSV closure may be higher than the initial steam flow, the turbine bypass valves are open prior to the turbine trip and will therefore remain open to provide some pressure relief during the turbine trip. The consequences of this event are bound by the TTNB.

FSAR Section Event Name Disposition Status Comments 15.2.3 Main Steam Isolation Valve No further analyses The fuel thermal transient resulting (MSIV) Closure required from this event is bounded by other more limiting pressurization events, such as the LRNB or TTNB event which have a much faster valve closure time.
15.2.4 Loss of Condenser Vacuum No further analyses In the most extreme case of an required instantaneous loss of vacuum, this transient is equivalent to a TTNB.
Therefore, this transient is bounded by the TTNB and LRNB and no further analysis is required.
15.2.5 Loss of Auxiliary Power No further analyses The loss of auxiliary power long-required term water level response is bound by the loss of feedwater flow event.
If complete connection with the external grid is lost, the reactor will experience a generator load rejection. The coastdown of the recirculation and feedwater pumps will reduce the severity of the event compared to the generator load rejection event, by reducing core power. Therefore consequences are bound by the LRNB event.
15.2.6 Loss of Feedwater Flow No further analysis This event does not pose any direct required threat to the fuel in terms of a thermal power increase from the initial conditions. The fuel will be protected provided the water level inside the shroud does not drop below the TAF. Previous evaluations for a different fuel design showed that the lowest level following a loss of feedwater event remained above Low Level 3.
Based on this, MSIV closure, ADS timer start and Low Pressure ECCS initiation are not expected. The long term water level transient is dependent upon the decay heat which is ((

The disturbance is mild, similar to a pressure setpoint change and no significant thermal margin reductions occur. This is a benign event.
15.3.1 Recirculation Pump Trip No further analyses The reduction in core flow is required accompanied by an increase in core voiding and a decrease in core power. While the decrease in core flow can result in a degradation of the thermal margins, the decrease in core power helps to mitigate that effect. This is a benign event.

Once the disposition of events has been completed, a calculation plan is constructed.
The calculation plan defines the minimum analysis set required to license a given cycle.
The events to be analyzed are defined by the disposition of events. The calculation plan will also define all operational flexibility options that are to be supported. These include items such as equipment out-of-service options (EOOS) and exposure windows.
The calculation plan is generated on a cycle specific basis and is reviewed and approved by Duke. Note that the calculation plan defines the minimum set of analyses required to license a cycle. Additional analyses may be added during the evaluation process if unexpected trends arise. These are added on an as-needed basis to ensure that the limits are appropriately conservative.

NRC RAI 23. For cycle operation that differs significantly from the original cycle design, describe and justify the process for evaluating whether the analysis continues to bound actual plant operation or whether additional analysis is necessary.
Response 23:
Cycle operation can differ from the final core design for a variety of reasons. The primary concern of these variations is that the actual cycle operations drifts to the point that the computed operating limits are no longer supported. A process exists between Duke and Framatome in the event there are major modifications such as changes to the licensed core loading pattern or implementation of suppression rods where comparison results are provided to Framatome to evaluate the impact on the reload licensing. With this information, Framatome will either determine the change is minor and has negligible impact or decide to rerun (( )). For smaller changes, the RSAR identifies a target end-of-cycle axial power distribution that supports the plant operating limits, such that the integrated impact of minor modifications to rod patterns or operating conditions throughout the cycle can be assessed to determine if the changes invalidate the cycle licensing limits.
To support the evaluation of cycle design deviations, Duke regularly performs projections of plant operation to the end-of-full power cycle exposure to ensure that the RSAR axial power distribution remains bounding. In addition, Duke procedures require this check to be performed in the event that there is a substantial change in the rod pattern from a previously analyzed depletion before the control rod pattern can be implemented at the plant. In the event that a disposition becomes necessary (i.e. RSAR axial power shape no longer bounding), Duke provides Framatome with an up-to-date core follow and depletion to end of full power exposure using appropriate rod patterns.
This new target step-through is used to determine ((

As part of the LAR review process, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provided Requests for Additional Information (RAI) in Reference 2.

Duke Energy Response In response to MELLLA+ SRXB-RAI-8 (Reference 3) Duke Energy provided plant data from four turbine trip events to support the use of a feedwater temperature reduction rate of 0.5°F/s and 1.3°F/s. The ATRIUM 11 ATWS-I Turbine Trip with Bypass (TTWBP) analysis (Reference 5),
provided to the NRC as Attachment 14a of the subject LAR (Reference 1), utilized the more conservative rate of 1.3°F/s. No Brunswick plant modifications have been made that affect the conclusion of the NRC in the MELLLA+ Safety Evaluation (Reference 4) that the feedwater temperature reduction rate of 0.5°F/s is acceptable for the ATWS-I TTWBP analyses for Brunswick at MELLLA+ conditions. Consistent with References 3 and 4, no initial delay time before feedwater temperature reduction was used in the ATRIUM 11 ATWS-I TTWBP analysis in ANP-3694P (Reference 5).

Duke Energy Response DPC-NE-1009-P (Reference 6) was provided to the NRC as Attachment 16a of the subject LAR (Reference 1). Section 3.2 Items 1.a through 1.c of DPC-NE-1009-P describes the screening criteria for the three limiting pump trip scenarios analyzed. These criteria are established such that sufficient populations of limiting BEO-III cases are evaluated with the CDA independent of future cycle stability behavior.
For MELLLA+ 2RPT events, all BEO-III cases with a reduction in BEO-III PBDA MCPR are evaluated with the CDA (i.e., final-over-initial MCPR ratio less than 1.0). As the minimum stability F/I MCPR ratio decreases to become limiting, more cases are evaluated with the CDA to provide a high degree of confidence that excluded cases do not challenge the 95/95 CDA MCPR FoM. For cycles where the stability response is more benign, fewer cases are analyzed with the CDA, so it is possible for some switching in the order between the BEO-III PBDA and CDA MCPR ranking, but this is only credible when the number of cases with a MCPR decrease is small (i.e., a number close to the order statistic). For this hypothetical scenario, the cases analyzed with the CDA will be the limiting tail of the sample population distribution and will be clustered close to a F/I MCPR ratio of 1.0 due to the statistical nature of the BEO-III sampling.
Events with the most limiting cases having a F/I MCPR ratio near 1.0 are non-limiting and do not have the potential to challenge the safety limit. As this hypothetical event transitions from benign to limiting, the number of cases with a MCPR decrease will quickly increase such that a potential difference in ranking relative to the order statistic affecting the determination of minimum required stability operating limit is not credible.
Duke Energy Responses to RAIs DPC-NE-1009Q1 on the Advanced Framatome Revision 0 Methods LAR Page 3-2 For SLO 1RPT and MELLLA RFWT 2RPT events (if analyzed), the minimum population requirement discussed in Item 1.b ensures that sufficiently large populations of limiting BEO-III PBDA MCPR cases are evaluated with the CDA based on the sample size and order statistic regardless of a cycles stability behavior. This was done to avoid unnecessary analysis of cases ranked far below the order statistic, where any switching in the order between the BEO-III PBDA and CDA MCPR ranking is of no consequence.
