and thermal stresses in equipment nozzles and struccural walls w; thin established code limits. Equipment and pipe scapports are designed to absorb piping rupture reaction loads for elimt.2 tion of secondary a

ident effects such as pipe motion and equipment foundation sb.f ting.

4.1.2.4 seismic Loads Reactor coolant system components are designated as Class I equ.p-ment, and are designed to maintain their functional integrity during earthquake, The basic design guide for the seismic analysis is the AEC publication TID-7024, " Nuclear Reactors and Earthquake".

Structures and equipment will be designed in accordance with Appendix SA.

4.1.2.5 Cyclic Loads

(

All components in the reactor coolant system are designed to with-

{

stand the effects of cyclic loads due to reactor system temperature and pressure changes.

These cyclic loads are introduced by normal unit load transients, reactor trip, and startup and shutdown operation.

Design cycles are shown in Table 4.1-7.

During unit startup and shutdown, the rates af temperature and pressure changes

4.1.3 EXPECTED OPERATING CONDIT10NS Throughout the load range from 15 to 100 percent power, the reactor

,gg coolant system is operated at a constant; average temperature.

Reactor coolant system pressure is controlled to provide sufficient overpressure to. maintain adequate core subcooling.

~

The minimum operating pressure is established from core thermal analysis. This analysis is based upon the maximum expected inlet and. outlet temperatures, the maximum reactor power, the minimum DNBR

. required (including instrumentation errors and the reactor control system

(

-deadband), and'a core-flow distrib'ition factor.

t 4 1-7'

Design Bases The maximum operating pressure is established on the basis of ASME

]

Code relief valve characteristics and the margins required for normal pressure variations in the system.

Pressure control between the preset maximum and minimum limits is obtained directly by pressurizer. spray action to suppress high pressure and pressurizer heater action to compensate for low pressure.

Normal operational lifetime transient cycles are discussed in detail in 4.1.4.

4.1.4 SERVICE LIFE

';p The service life of reactor coolant system pressure components depends upon the end-of-life material radiation damage, nuclear unit operational thermal cycles, quality manufacturing standards, environmental protection, and adherence to established operating procedures.

In the following discussion each of these life-dependent factors will be discussed with regard to the affected components.

4.1.4.1 Material Radiation Damage The reactor vessel is the only reactor coolant system component exposed to a significant level of neutron irradiction and is therefore the only component subject to material radiation damage.

~

To assess the potential radiation damage at the end-of-reactor service life, the maximum exposure from fast neutrons (E > 1.0 Mev) 80 percent load factor.

Reactor vessel irradiation exposure calcu-

~)

has been computed to be 3.0 x 1019 n/cm2 over a 40 year life with an 1ations are described in 3.2.2.1.7.

For this neutron exposure, the predicted nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT) shift is 250 F based on the curve shown in Figure 4.1-4.

Based on an initial NDTT of 10 F, this shift would result in a predicted NDTT of 260 F.

~

The " Trend curve for 350 F Data", as shown in Figure 4.1-4, repre-sents irradiated material test results and was compiled from the reference documents listed in Table 4.1-8.

L '

To evaluate the NDTT shif t of welds, heat-affected zones, and base material for the material used in the vessel, test coupons of these three material types have been included in the reactor vessel sur-veillance program as described in 4.4.3.

The transient cycles listed in Table 4.1-7 are conservative and

/

complete in that they include all significant modes of normal and emergency operation.

The estimated frequency bases for the design transient' cycles are listed in Table 4.1-10.

A large number of cycles of smaller magnitudes than those described can be tolerated.

A heatup and cooldown rate of 100 F/ hour is used in the analysis of Transients 1 and 2 in Table 4.1-7.

jy A ramp loading and ramp unloading transient is defined as a change in power level from 15 to 100 to 15 percent of rated power at a rate of change of 10%/ min. A step loading transient is an instantaneous power increase or decrease of 10 percent of rated power. A step load reduction to auxiliary load is an instantaneous reduction in elec-trical load from 100 to 5 percent of rated load.

The miscellaneous transients (Item 8) listed in Table 4.1-7 include the initial hydrotests, plus an allowance for future hydrotests in the event that reactor coolant system modifications or repairs may be re-quired.

Subsequent to a normal refueling operation only the reactor vessel closure seals are hydrocested for pressure integrity; there-fore, reactor coolant system hydrotests before startup are not included.

4.1.4.3 Operating Procedures The reactor coolant' system pressure vessel components are designed using. the ' transition. temperature method of minimizing the possibility

.of brittle fracture of the vessel materials. The various combinations sof stresses are evaluated and employed to determine the system opera-

)

ting procedures.

The basic determination of vessel operation from cold startup and shut-down to full pressure and temperature operation is performed in accord-ance with a " Fracture Analysis Diagram" as published by Pellini and Puzak.2 At temperatures below the nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT) and the design transition temperature (DTT), which is equal to NDTT + 60 F, the pressure vessels will be operated so that the stress levels will be restricted to a value that will peevent brittle failure.

These levels are a.

Below the temperature of DTT minus 200 F, a maximum stress of 10 percent yield strength.

b.

From the: temperature of DTT minus 200 F to DTT, a maximum stress which will increase from 10 to 20 percent yield strength.

Ok,)

c.

At the temperature of DTT, a maximum stress of 20 percent yield strength.

If the nominal stresses are held within the referenced stress limits (a. through c. above), brittle fracture will not occur.

This state-ment 'is based on data reported by Robertson3 and Kihara and Masubichi4 in published. literature.

It can be shown that stress limits can be iantro11ed by imposing operating procedures that control pressure and temperature during heatup and cocidown (See Reference 3).

This pro-cedure will ensure that the' nominal stress levels do not exceed those specified in a. t!1 rough c. above.

Af ter completion of the qualification test program, production welding and inspection procedures are prepared.

All plate or other materials are permanently identified, and the identity is maintained throughout manufacture so that each piece can be located in the finished vessels.

In-process and final dimen-sional inspections are made to ensure that parts and assemblies meet the drawing requirements, and an "as-built" record of these dimensions is kept for future reference.

}

All welders are qualified or requalified as necessary in accordance with The Babcock & Wilcox Company and ASNE IX requirements. Each lot of welding electrodes and fluxes is tested and qualified before release to ensure that required mechanical properties and as-deposited chemical properties can be met.

Electrodes are identified and issued only on an approved request to ensure that the correct materials are used in each weld. All welding electrodes and fluxes are maintained dry and free from contamination before use.

Records are maintained and reviewed'by welding engineers to ensure that approved procedures and materials are being used. Records are maintained for each weld joint and include the welder's name, essential weld parameters, and electrode heat or lot number.

The several types of nondestructive tests performed during vessel fabrication are as follows:

a.

Radiography, including x-ray, high voltage linear accel-erator, or radioactive sources, will be used as applicable to determine the acceptability of pressure integrity welds and other welds as specifications require.

b.

Ultrasonics is used to examine all pressure-integrity raw material and the bond between corrosion-resistant cladding 3

to base material.

In addition, pressure-containing welds t

where applicable are inspected by ultrasonics.

The' reactor coolant system consists of the reactor vessel, two vertical once-through steam generators, four shaft-sealed coolant

-circulating pumps, an electrically-heated pressurizer, and inter-connecting piping. The s'ystem-is arranged as two heat transport loops, each.with two circulating pumps and one steam generator.

Reactor system design data are. listed in Tables 4.1-2 through

~

4.1-6, and a system schematic diagram is shown in Figure 4.1-1.

Elevation and plan views of the arrangement of the major components are shown in Figures 4.1-2 and 4.1-3.

4.2.2 MAJOR COMPONENTS 4.2.2.1 Reactor Vessel The reactor. vessel consists of a cylindrical shell, a cylindrical

. support skirt, a spherically dished bottom head, and a ring flange to which a removable reactor closure head is bolted.

The reactor closure head is a spherically-dished head welded to a ring flange.

The vessel has six major nozzles for reactor coolant flow, 69 control rod drive nozzles mounted on the reactor closure head, and two core flooding nozzles--all located above the core. The reactor vessel will be vented through the control rod drives. The vessel closure seal is formed by two concentric 0-rings with pro-visions between them for leakage collection.

The reactor vessel, l2 nozzle design, and seals incorporate the extensive design and fab-rication experience accumulated by B&W. Fifty-two in-core instru-l2 mentation nozzles are located on the lower head.

The reactor closure head and the reactor vessel flange are joined by sixty 1/2 in. diameter studs. Two metallic 0-rings seal the reactor vessel when the reactor closure head is bolted in place.

Leakoff and test taps are provided in the annulus between the two e

..y The vessel -is insulated with tretallic reflective-type insulation.

Insulation' panels are provided for che reactor closure head.

The' reactor vessel internals are designed to direct the coolant

. flow, support the, reactor core, and guide the control rods in the withdrawn position.

The reactor vessel contains the core support assembly,. upper plenum assembly, fuel assemblies, control rod assemblies, surveillance specimens, and incore instrumentation.

y System Description and Operation i

The reactor vessel shell material is protected against fast neutron flux and gamma heating effects by a series of water annuli and the thermal shield located between the core and vessel wall.

This protection is further described in 3.2.4.1.2, 4.1.4, and 4.3.1.

Stop blocks welded to the reactor vessel inside wall limit reactor internals and core vertical drop to 1/2 in, or less and prevent rotation about the vertical axis in the unlikely event of a major b

internals component failure.

Surveillance specimens made from reactor steel are located between the reactor vessel wall and the thermal shield. These specimens will be examined at selected intervals to evaluate reactor vessel material NDTT changes as described in 4.4.3.

-The reactor vessel general arrangement is shown in Figure 4.2-1, and the general arrangement of the reactor vessel and internals is shown in Figures 3.2-59 and 3.2-60.

Reactor vessel design data are listed in Table 4.1-2.

4.2.2.2 Pressurizer The general arrangement of the reactor coolant system pressurizer is shown in Figure 4.2-2, and the design characteristics are tab-

}

ulated in Table 4.1-3.

The electrically-heated pressurizer estab-

./

lishes and maintains the reactor coolant pressure within prescribed limits and provides a surge chamber and a water reserve to accommo-date reactor coolant volume changes during operation.

The pressurizer is a. vertical cylindrical vessel connected to the reactor outlet piping by the surge piping. The pressurizer vessel is protected from thermal effects by a thermal sleeve on the surge line and by a distribution baffle located above the surge pipe entrance to the vessel.

Relief valves are mounted on the top of the pressurizer and function u

  • to relieve any system overpressure. Each valve has one-half the required relieving capacity. The capacity of these valves is dis-cussed in.4.3.4.

The relief valves discharge to a pressurizer relief tank located within the reactor building. The pressurizer relief tank has a stored water supply and cooling coils to condense the steam. A relief valve protects the tank against overpressure should a pressurizer valve fail to reseat.

.The pressurizer contains replaceable electric heaters in its lower section and a water spray nozzle in its upper section to maintain the steam and water at the saturation temperature corresponding to the desired reactor coolant system pressure.

During outsurges, as

(,

the pressure in the reactor-decreases, some of the water in the pressurizer flashes to steam to maintain pressure.

~

The general'arrangemeat of the steam generators is shown in Figure

~

'4.2-3, and design data are tabulated in Table 4.1-4.

The1 steam generator is a vertical,~ straight-tube-an'd-shell heat-exchanger and' produces superheated steam at constant pressure over the power range.

Reactor 1 coolant--flows downward through the tubes,-

and steam.is; generated;on'the shell' side.

The high pressure parts of'the unit are'the hemispherical. heads,.the tubesheets, and the straight Inconel*' tubes between.the tubesheets.

Tube supports

. hold'the tubes in a uniform pattern along their length.

The shell, the outside of the tubes, and the tubesheets form the boundaries of the steam-producing section of the vessel. Within the shell, the tube bundle is surrounded by a baffle, which is

['{l divided intoL two sections. -The upper part of the annulus between the shell and' baffle is the super-heater. outlet, and the lower part L

is the feedwater. inlet-heating: zone.

Vents, drains, instrumentation nozzles, and inspection openings are provided:on the shell side of

the: unit. The reactor coolant side-has instrumentation connections

'on theitop and bottom heads, manways on both heads, and a drain nozzle forlthe bottom head.

Venting of the reactor coolant side-of the; unit is accomplished by a vent connection on the reactor coolant inlet pipe to 'each unit.- The unit is supported by a skirt attached.to the~ bottom head.

Reactor coolant. water (enters the steam generator at the upper plenum, flows'down the-Inconel tubes while transferring' heat to the

-secondary.'shell-side fluid,.and exits' through the lower plenum.

System Description and Operation Four heat transfer regions exist in the steam generator as feed-water is converted to superheated steam.

Starting with the feed-water inlet these are:

a.

Feedwater Heating Feedwater is heated to saturation temperature by direct contact heat exchange. The feedwater enter-ing the unit is sprayed into a feed heating annulus

.3' (downcomer) formed by the shell and the baf fle around the tube bundle. The steam that heats the feedwater to saturation is drawn into the downcomer by condensing action of the relatively cold feedwater.

The saturated water in the downcomer forms a static head to balance the static head in the nucleate boiling section. This provides the head to over-come pressure drop in the circuit formed by the downcomer, the boiling sections, and the bypass steam flow to the feedwater heating region. With low (less than 1 f t/sec) saturated water velocities entering the generacing section, the secondary side pressure drops in the boiling section are negligible.

The majority of the pressure drop is due to the static head of the mixture. Consequently, the downcomer phase boiling mixture in the nucleate boiling region.

-)

1cvel of water balances the mean density of the two-b.

Nucleate Boiling The saturated water enters the tube bundle, and the steam-water mixture flows upward on the outside of the Inconel tubes counter-current to the reactor coolant flow.

The vapor content of the mixture increases almost uniformly until DNB, i.e., departure from nucleate boiling, is reached, and then film boiling and super-heating occurs.

The quality at which transi-tion from nucleate boiling to film boiling occurs is a function of pressure, heat flux, and mass velocity.

c.

. Film Boiling Dry saturated steam is produced in the film boiling region at the upper end of the tube bundle.

6.

Superheated Steam Saturated steam is raised to final temperature in the super-heater region.

-level versus load.. As shown, the downcomer water level is propor-tional to steam flow from 15 to 100 percent load.

A constant minimum level _is held below'15 percent' load. The amount of surface (or length) of the nucleate boiling section and the film boiling section-is proportional'to load. The surface available for super-heating varies inversely with load, i.e., as load decreases the superheat section' gains from the nucleate and film boiling regions.

~ Mass inventory in the steam generator increases with load as the

-length of the heat transfer regions varies.

The simple concept with ideal counterflow conditions results in highly stable flow characteristics on both the reactor coolant

- and secondary. sides.-. The hot reactor coolant fluid is cooled uniformly as it flows downward. The secondary side mass flow is low, and the majority of.the pressure: drop is due to the static effect of the mixture. The boiling-in the steam generator is

- somewha't.similar to " pool boiling", except that there is motion upward,that permits some parallel flow of water and steam.

. A plot of reactor coolant and steam temperatures versus reactor power

- is shown.in Figure 7.2-1.

As shown, both steam pressure and average reactor coolant temperature are held constant over the load range'from fp 15 to 100 percent rated power.

Constant steam pressure is obtained by Q

a variable two-phase boiling length (see Figure 4.2-4).and-by the regulation of feed flow to obtain proper steam generator secondary mass inve ntory'.'

In addition to average reactor coolant temperature, reactor coolant flow is also held constant.

The difference between reactor ecolant inlet and outlet temperaturesiincreases proportionately as load is increased.

Saturation pressure and temperature are constant, resulting in a variable superheater outlet temperature.

Figure;4.2-6, a plot of temperature versus tube length, shows the temperature differences between shell and tube throughout the steam generator at full load. 'The excellent heat transfer coefficients permit.the use of a secondary operating pressure and temperature sufficiently close to the reactor coolant average temperature so that a straight-tube design can be used.

~

The shell temperature is controlled by the use of direct contact g

. steam that heats the feedwater to saturation, and the shell is bathed with saturated water from feedwater inlet.to the lower tubesheet.

In the superh' eater'section, the-tube wall temperature approaches

~

' the' reactor coolant-fluid ~ temperature since the steam film heat transfer. coefficient:is considerably lower than the reactor cool-ant heat; transfer coefficient.

By baffle arrangement in the super-u( }-

heater section, the shell'section is bathed with superheated steam 4.2-5 n

System Description and Operation above the steam outlet nozzle, further reducing temperature dif-ferentials between tubes and shell.

The steam generator design and' stress analysis will be performed in accordance with the requirements of the ASME III as described in 4.3.1.1.

4.2.2.4 Reactor Coolant Pumps The general arrangement of a reactor coolant pump is shown in Figure 4.2-7, and the pump design data are tabulated in Table 4.1-5.

The reactor coolant pumps are vertical, single-speed, shaft-sea}ed units having bottom suction and horizontal discharge.

Eac.h ptonp has a separate, single-speed, top-mounted motor, which is connected to the pump by a shaft coupling.

Shaft sealing is accomplished in the upper part of the pump housing using a throttle bushing, a seal chamber, a mechanical seal, and a drain chamber in series.

Seal water is injected ahead of the throttle bushing at a pressure approximately 50 psi above reactor system pressure.

Part of the seal flow passes into the pump volute through the radial pump bearing. The remainder flows out along the throttle bushing, where its pressure is reduced, to the seal chamber and is returned to the seal water supply system. The out-board mechanical seal normally operates at a pressure and tempera-

)

ture of approximately 50 psig and 125 F.

However, it is designed for full reactor coolant system pressure and, if seal chamber cooling were maintained, would continue to operate satisfactorily without seal water injection for several weeks. The outboard drain chamber would further prevent leakage to the reactor building if deterioration of the mechanical seal performance should occur.

A water-lubricated, self-aligning, radial bearing is located in the pump housing. An oil-lubricated radial bearing and a Kingsbury, type, double-acting, oil-lubricated thrust bearing are located in the pump motor. The thrust bearing is designed so that reverse rotation of the shaft will not lead to pump or motor damage.

Lube oil cooling is accomplished by cooling coils in the motor oil reservoir.

Oil pressure required for bearing lubrication is main-tained by internal pumping provisions in the motor, or by and external system if required for " hydraulic-jacking" of the bearing surfaces for startup.

An antirotation device will be furnished with each pump motor to 2

prohibit reverse rotation of the pump.

Factory thrust, vibration, and seal performance tests will be made in a closed loop on the first pump at rated speed with the pump end at rated temperature and pressure.

Sufficient testing will be done on subsequent units to substantiate that they conform to the initial test pump characteristics.

Piping design data are presented in_ Table.4.1-6.

In addition to the pressurizer surge piping con-nection,-the piping is equipped with welded connections for pressure taps, temperature elements, vents, drains, decay heat removal, and emergency core cooling high pressure injection water. Thermal sleeves are provided in the pressurizer surge piping, the emergency 2

.high pressure injection, and the core flooding connections.

4.2.3-

- PRESSURE-RELIEVING DEVICES The. reactor coolant system is protected against overpressure by control and protective circuits such as the high pressure trip and code relief valves located on the top head of the pressurizer.

JThe relief' valves discharge into the pressurizer relief tank which condenses and collects the effluent. The schematic arrangement of the relief devices is shown in Figure 4.1-1.

Since all sources of heat in the system, i.e., core, pressurizer heaters, and reactor coolant pumps, are interconne:ted by the reactor coolant piping with no intervening isolation valves, all relief protection can conveniently be located on the pressurizer.

]

'4.2.4 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION The reactor coolant system is surrounded by con'

-~o. shield walls.

These-walls provide shielding to permit access c ;a the reactor building forfinspection and maintenance of miscellaneous rotating equipment during rated power operation and for periodic calibration of the incore monitoring system.. These shielding walls act as missile protection for the reactor building liner plate.

Lateral bracing will be provided near the steam generator upper tube-shect elevation to. resist lateral loads, including those resulting from seismic forces, pipe rupture, thermal expansion, etc. Additional bracing-is provided at a lower elevation to-restrain the 36-in.

System Description and Operation

/

The unirradiated or initial NDTT of pressure vessel base plate material is presently measured by two methods:

the drop weight test given in ASTM E208, and the Charpy V-notch impact test (Type A) given in ASTM E23. The NDTT is defined in ASTM E208 as "the tem-perature at which a specimen is broken in a series of tests in which duplicate no-break performance occurs at a 10 F higher temperature".

Using the Charpy V-notch test, the NDTT is defined as the tempera-ture at which the energy required to break the specimen is a certain E.

" fixed" value. For SA 302B steel the ASME III Table N-332 specifies an energy value of 30 ft-lb.

This value is based on a correlation with the drop weight test and will be referred to as the "30 ft-lb fix."

A curve of the temperature versus energy absorbed in breaking the specimen is plotted. To obtain this curve, 15 tests are per-formed which include three tests at five different temperatures.

The intersection of the energy versus temperature curve with the 30 ft-lb ordinate is designated as the NDTT.

The available data indicate differences as great as 40 degrees between curves plotted through the minimum and average values respectively. The determination of NDTT from the average curve is considered representative of the material and is consistent with procedures specified in ASTM E23.

In assessing the NDTT shift due to irradiation, the translation of the average curves is used.

The material for these tests will be treated by the methods outlined

)

in ASME III Paragraph N-313.

The test coupons will be taken at a

/

distance of T/4 (1/4 of the plate thickness) from the quenched surfaces and at a distance of T from the quenched edges. These tests are performed by the material supplier to certify the material as delivered to BW.

The exact test coupon locations are reviewed and approved by BW to ensure compliance with the applicable ASME Code and specifications.

In accordance with ASME III Paragraphs N-712 2

and N-330, BW performs Charpy V-notch impact tests on heat-affected zone (HAZ), base metal, and weld metal on all pressure vessel test plates.

Differences of 20 to 40 F in NDTT have been observed between T/4 and 1 -

the surface in heavy plates.

The T/4 location for Charpy V-notch impact specimens is conservative since the NDTT of the surface mate-

~

rial is lower than that of the internal material.

The reactor vessel design includes surveillance specimens which will permit an evaluation of the neutron exposure-induced shift on the material nil-ductility transition temperature properties.

The remaining material in the reactor vessel and the other reactor coolant system components are purchased to the appropriate design code requirements and specific component function.

The material irradiation surveillance program is described in 4.4.3.

4.2.6 MAXIMUM HEATING AND COOLING RATES The normal reactor coolant system operating cycles are given in Tables 4.1-7 and 4.1-10 and described in 4.1.4.

The normal system heating and cooling rate is 100 F/hr. The exact final rates are determined during the detail design and stress analysis of the

)

vessel.

The fastest cooldown rates resulting from the break of a main steam line are discussed in 14.1.2.9.

4.2.7:

LEAK DETECTION To minimize leakage from the reactor coolant system all components are interconnected by an all-welded piping system.

Some of.the components have access openings of a flanged-gasketed design. The largest of these is the reactor closure head, which has a double metal 0-ring seal with provisions for disposing of leakage between the l2 0-rings.

With regard to the reactor vessel, the probability of a leak occur-ring is considered to be remote on the basis of reactor vessel design, fabrication, test, inspection, and operation at temperatures

((

above the material NDTT as described in 4.3.1.

Reactor closure head t( g Icakage will be zero from the annulus between the metallic 0-ring seals during vessel steady-state and virtually all transient operat-ing conditions. Only in the event of a rapid transient operation, such as an emergency cooldown, would there be some leakage past the innermost 0-ring seal. A stress analysis on a similar vessel design indicates this leak rate would be approximately 10 cc/ min through the seal monitoring taps to a drain, and no leakage will occur past the outer 0-ring seal. The exact nature of this transient condition and the resulting small leak rate will be determined by a detailed stress analysis.

In'the unlikely event that an extensive '.e.ak should occur from the system into the reactor building.during reactor operation, the leakage will be_ detected by nna or. more of the following methods:

a.-

Instrumentation in the. control room will indicate the addition rate of makeup water required to maintain normal

,j water level in the pressurizer and in the makeup tank.

Deviation from normal makeup and letdown to the reactor coolant system will provide an indication of the mag-nitude of the: leak.

D C

Amendment 2 4.2-11~

System Description and Operation b.

Control room instrumentation vill indicate additional reactor building atmosphere particulate or radicactive gas activity.

c.

Control room instrumentation will indicate the existance of a change in the water level in the reactor building sump.

If any one of the methods above indicates an excessive reactor 3'

coolant leakage rate during operation, the reactor will be taken to a cold shutdown, and the cause of the problem sill be determined.

4.3 SYSTEM DESIGN EVALUATION 4.3.1 SAFETY FACTORS The reactor coolant' system is designed, fabricated, and erected in 1

accordance with proven and recognized design codes and quality standards applicable for the specific component function or class-ification. These components are designed for a pressure of 2,500 psig at a nominal temperature of 650 F.

The corresponding nominal operating pressure of 2,185 psig allows an adequate margin for normal load changes and operating transients. The reactor system components are designed to meet the cades listed in Table 4.1-9.

Aside from ~the -safety factors introduced by code requirements and quality control programs, as described in the following paragraphs, the reactor coolant system functional safety factors are discussed in Sections 3 and 14.

4.3.1.1 Pressure Vessel Safety The safety of the nuclear reactor vessel and all other reactor r~

coolant system pressure vessels is dependent upon four major factors:

(a) design and stress analysis, (b) quality control, (c) proper operation, and (d) additional safety factors.

The special care l2 and detail used in implementing these factors in pressure vessel manufacture are briefly described as follows:

4.3.1'.1.1 Design and Stress Analysis These pressure vessels are designed to the requirements of the ASFE III code. This code is a result of ten years of effort by representatives from industry and government who are skilled in the design and fabrication of pressure vessels.

It is a comprehensive code based on the most applicable stress theory.

It requires a stress analysis of the entire vessel under both steady-state and transient operations. The result is a complete evaluation of both primary and secondary stresses, and the fatigue life of the entire vessel. This is a contrast with previous codes which basically established a vessel thickness during steady-state operations only.

-gr In establishing the fatigue life of these pressure vessels, using the design cycles from Table 4.1-7, the fatigue evaluation curves of ASME III are. employed.

Since ASME III requires a complete stress analysis, the designer 3

must have at his disposal the necessary analytical tools to accomplish this. 'These tools are.the solutions to the basic mathematical theory of elasticity equations.

In recent years the capability and use of s_

Amendment 2 4.3-1 L

System Design Evaluation computers have played a major part in refining these analytical solutions. The Babcock & Wilcox Company has confirmed the theory of plates and shn11s by measuring strains and rotations on the large flanges of. actual pressure vessels and finding them to be in agree-ment with those predicted by the. theory.

B&R has also conducted

' laboratory deflection studies of thick shell and ring combinations to define the accuracy of the theory, and is using computer programs developed on the basis of.this test data.

.9 The analytical procedure considers all process operation conditions.

A detailed design and analysis of every part of the vessel is pre-pared as follows:

a.

'*Ne vessel size and configuration are set to meet the process requirements, the rhickness requirements due to pressure and other structural dead and live loads, and the special fillet contour and transition taper requirements at nozzles, etc., required by ASME III.

b.

The vessel pressure and temperature design tran-

~

sients given in Table 4.1-7 are employed in the determination of the pressure loading and tempera-ture gradient and their variations with time throughout the vessel. The resulting combinations

~T of pressure loading and thermal stresses are cal-J culated.

Computer programs are used in this devel-opment.

c.

The stresses through the vessel are evaluated using as criteria the allowable stresses per ASNE III.

This code gives safe stress level limits for all the types of applied stress. These are membrane stress (to ensure adequate tensile strength of the vessel), membrane plus primary bending stress (to ensure a distortion-free vessel), secondary stress (to ensure a vessel that will not progressively deform under cyclic loading), and peak stresses (to ensure a vessel of maximum fatigue life).

A design report is prepared and submitted-to the jurisdictional authorities and regulatory agencies, i.e.,

state, insurance, etc.

This report defines in sufficient detail the design basis, loading conditions, etc., and will summarize the conclusions to permit in-dependent checking by interested parties.

a.

Welds are inspected with the magnetic particle

method'after removal of backup strips.

'o. Weld preparations are inspected by the magnetic particle method, c.

The external surface of the entire vessel, including weld seams, is inspected-after all heat treatment.

d.

Personnel using this method are trained by B&W and by the equipment manufacturers who offer fomal training programs.

The liquid penetrant examination helps to detect surface defects and is particularly adaptable to the nonmagnetic materials such as stainless steel.

It is presently being used as follows:

a.

Inspection of weld-deposited cladding.

b.

Inspection of reactor vessel studs.

c.-

Personnal using this method of examination are trained by B&W and by the equipment manufacturers.

The primary purpose of these quality control procedures and methods is to locate, define, and determine the size of material defects to allow an evaluation of defect acceptance, rejection, or repair.

The size of defect that can conceivably contribute to the rupture of a vessel depends not only on the size effect but on the orient-ation of the defec.t, the magnitude of the stress field, and tempera-ture. 'These major parameters have been correlated by Pellini and c

Puzak2 who have prepared a " Fracture Analysis Diagram" which is the basis of vessel operation from cold startup and shutdown to full pressure and temperature operation.

The diagram predicts that, for a given level of stress, larger flaw sizes will be required for fracture initiation above the NDTT tempera-f ture. For example, at stresses in the order of 3/4 yield strength, a flaw in the order of 8 to 10 inches may be sufficient to initiate fracture at temperatures below the NDTT temperature.

However, at NDTT + 30 F, a flaw of 1-1/2 times this size may be required for i

initiation of fracture. While at a temperature of NDTT + 60 F,

~

brittle fracture is not possible under elastic stresses because

)

brittle ~ fracture propagation does not' take place lat this temperature.

JFractures abovei his temperature are of the predominantly ductile t

type and are dependent upon the-member net section area and section modulus as'they establish.the applied stress.

Stud forgings will be-inspected for flaws by two ultrasonic inspec-j tions.-.An~ axial longitudinal beam inspection will be performed.

The rejection standard will be loss-of-back-reflection greater than that ifrom a '1/2-in. diameter flat bottom hole. A radial inspection

. will be made using the' longitudinal beam technique. This inspection will. carry-the same rejection standards.as_the axial inspection.

In addition to the' ultrasonic tests,' liquid-penetrant inspection will be performed ~on the~ finished studs.-

The stress analysis of the studs will include e fatigue evaluation.

It 'is not expected that fatigue ' evaluation will yield a significantly high usage factor for the 40-year design life..Therefore, there-will betno planned frequency for stud replacement.

If an indication

.i;s found when the studs are inspected during refueling, as described below, the stud will be replaced.

One-third'of the studs'will be visually examined and dye-penetrant

~

inspected at every refueling.

Any positive indications found will be cause for rejection.

~The reactor closure head is attached to the reactor vessel with

' '\\

sixty 6-1/2-in. diameter studs. The stud material is A-540, Grade B23 - (ASME;III, Case 1335) which has 'a minimum yield strength of 130,000 psi. The studs, when tightened for operating conditions, will have a tensile stress of approximately 30,000 psi.

Thus, at operating' conditions (2,185 psig):

a.

10 adjacent studs can fail before a leak occurs.

b.

25 adjacent studs can fail before the remaining studs reach yield strength.

.c.. 26 adjacent stud: can fail before the remaining studs reach the ultimate tensile. strength.

d.

43 symmetrically located studs.can fail before the remaining studs reach yield strength.

i4.3.1.1.3 operation As previously mentioned in 4.1.4, pressure vessel service life is

. dependent on adherence to established operating procedures.

Pres-sure_vesselfsafety is also dependent on proper vessel operation.

u

System Design Evaluation The fatigue criteria of ASME III are the bases of designing for fatigue..They are based on fatigue tests of pressure vessels spon-sored by the AEC and the Pressure Vessel Research Committee.

The stress limits established for the pressure vessels are dependent upon the temperature at which the stresses are applied.

As a result of fast neutron absorption in the region of the core, the reactor vessel material ductility will change. The effect is an : increase in the nil-ductility transition temperature (NDTT).

5 The determination of the predicted NDTT shift is described in 4.1.4.1.

This NDTT shift is factored into the plant startup and shutdown procedures so that full operating pressure is not attained until the reactor vessel temperature is above the design transition temperature (DTT). Below the DTT the total stress in the vessel wall due to both pressure and the associated heatup and cooldown transient is restricted.t'o 5,000 - 10,000 psi, which is below the threshold of concern for safe cperation. These stress levels define an operating coolant pressure temperature path or envelope for a stated heatup or cooldown rate that must be followed. Additional information on the determination of the operating procedures is provided in 4.1.4.1, 4.1.4.2, and 4.1.4.3.

4.3.1.1.4 Additional Pressure Vessel Safety Factors Additional methods and procedures used in pressure vessel design,

)'

not previously mentioned in 4.3.1.1 above but which are considered conservative and provide an additional margin of safety, are as follows:

a.

Use of a stress concentration factor of 4 on assumed flaws in calculating stresses.

b.

Use of minimum specified yield strength of the mate-rial instead of the actual values.

Neglecting the increase in yield strength resulting c.

from irradiation effects.

d.

The design shift in NDTT as given in 4.1.4.1 is based on maximum predicted flux levels at the reactor ves-sel inside wall surface, whereas the bulk of the re-actor vessel material will experience a lesser expo-sure of radiation and consequently a 1cwer change in NDTT over the life of the vessel.

e.

Because the irradiation dosage is higher at the in-side surface of the reactor pressure vessel wall, the surveillance specimens will be subjected to a greater degree of irradiation and therefore to a larger shift in NDTT value than will be experienced by the vessel.

c 4.3-6

fm :)

'b M The specimens' lead the vessel with respect to irra-1diation effects and -impart a degree of conservatism

-in the evaluation of the capsule specimens. The material. irradiation surveillance program is des-cribed in 4.4.3.

'f.'

Lesults from the method of neutron flux calculations, as described in 3.2.2.1.7, 'have. increased.the flux calculations by.a factor of 2 in predicting the nyt-in the reactor. vessel wall. The conservative assump-tions, uncertainties, and comparisons of calculational codes used in determining this factor are discussed in detail in 3.2.2.1.7.

--The foregoing discussion. presents a detailed ' description of quality design, fabrication, inspection, and operating procedures used to ensure confidence in the. integrity of pressure vessels. Experience

~

reported by Reference.5, BG, and the satisfactory experience of

'BW customers support the conclusion that pressure vessel rupture is incredible..

4.3.1.2 Piping

'O Total stresses resulting from thermal expansion and pressure and mechanical and seismic loadings are all considered in the design

~ '

- of the reactor coolant piping. The total stresses that can be expected in the piping are within-the maximum code allowables. The pressurizer surge line connection and the high pressure injection connections are equipped with thermal sleeves to limit stresses from

~

thermalLshock to acceptable values. All materials and fabrication procedures will meet the requirements of the'specified code. All material will be ultrasonically inspected. All welds will be radio-graphically-inspected.. All interior surfaces'of the interconnecting piping are clad with stainless steel co eliminate corrosion problems and to reduce coolant' contamination.

4.3.1.3-Steam Generator Because the basic concept of'the once-through steam generator would indicate the-possible existance of differential thermal expansion-

.p induced. stresses in either the-tubes or shell, the thermal loadings have been evaluated using the most-. severe design transients from Table.4.7-7.

The' basic structural premise of the steam generator is that the

'tubesheets:themselves are. designed;to take the full design pressure

-on either-sidenof the tubesheet with zero pressure on the other side.

~

That is, the tubes-are not counted upon for any structural aid or

/(W

Q[l '

support.

I

.4.3-7

?'

System Design Evaluation Tne steam line failure antlyzed in 14.1.2.9 closely simulates this

. design premise in a transient manner.. Secondary temperature varia-tions during the accident are essentially transient skin effects with the controlling temperature for the tubesheets and tubes being that of the reactor coolant. Thermal stresses for this case will be below ASME allowable values.

Some tube deformation may occur but will be restrained by the tube supports.

During normal power operation the tubes are hotter than the shell of

+

3 the steam generator by 10 to 20 F depending on load. -The effect is.

to put the tubes in a slight' compression of 3,000 psi at the 20 F maximum temperature difference.

During startup and shutdown operations the tubes are hotter than the shell of -the steam generator by 40 F.

This places the tubes in a

' compressive stress of 6,000 psi. Thus, the stress levels developed-during normal startup or shutdown operations cause no adverse effect on the tubes since these stresses are well below the allowable stress 2l of 23,300 psi for SB-163 material. Buckling of the tubes does not occur.since they are supported laterally at 40-in. intervals along their length. To demonstrate the. structural adecuacy of the steam generator at this condition, a laboratory unit was constructed of the same tube size, length, and material as the steam generator, but of seven tubes in number.

It was structurally tested 'with a thermal difference of shell and tube of 80 F for 2,000 cycles.

This severe difference twice as great as the maximum expected during startup

- )

thermal. cycle test was performed with a tube-to-shell temperature and shutdown (Transients 1 and 2, Table 4.1-7).

Destructive exam-ination of the unit after this test indicated no adverse eifects from fatigue, stress, buckling, or tube-to-tubesheet joint leakage.

-4.3.2 RELIANCE ON INTERCONNECTED SYSTEMS

'The principal. heat removal systems which are interconnected with the reactor coolant system are the steam and feedwater systems and the decay heat removal system.

The reactor coolant system is dependent upon the steam generators, and the steam, feedwater, and condensate systems for decay heat removal from normal operating conditions to a reactor _ coolant temperature of approximately 250 F.

All vital

. active. components 'in these systems are duplicated for reliability purposes.

The engineering flow diagram of the steam an' feedwater systems is shown in Figure 10-2-1.

In the event that the conitasers are not available to receive the: steam generated by decay heat, the water stored in the feed-water system may be-pumped into the steam generators and the resultant

' steam vented to the atmosphere. Either the turbine-driven, or motor-driven auxiliary boiler. feed pumps, both rated at five percent capacity,

will aupply water to the steam generators.

Operation at reduced reactor power is.possible with one or more pumps out of service. For added reliablility, power to the pumps is available from either of two electrically separated 1 sources as shown in Figure 8.2-1.

Separate core flooding nozzles are provided on opposite sides of the reactor vessel to ensure core reflooding water in the event of a single nozzle failure. Reflooding water is available from airher the core flooding tanks or the decay heat removal pumps which provide

4.3.6 SAFETY ANALYSIS

(.

The components of the reactor coolant system are interconnected by an all-welded piping system.

Since the reactor inlet and outlet nozzfes are located above the core, there is never any danger of the reactor coolant uncovering the core when any other system component is drained for inspection or repair.

4.3.7 OPERATIONAL LIMITS Reactor coolant system heatup and cooldown rates are described in detail in 4.1.4 and 4.2.6.

The component stress limitations dictated by material NDTT considerations are described in 4.1.4 and 4.3.1.

N The reactor coolant system is designed for 2,500 psig at 650 F.

The normal operating conditions will be 2,185 psig at an average system temperature of 579 F at rated power.

In this mode of operation, the reactor vessel outlet-temperature is 603 F.

Additional temperature variations at various~ power levels are shown on Figure 7.2-1.

4.4.3 MATERIAL IRRADIATION SURVEILLANCE

$P Surveillance specimens of the reactor vessel shell section material are installed between the core and inside wall of the vessel shell to monitor the NDTT of the vessel mat 3 rial during operating lifetime.

The type of specimens _ included in the surveillance program will be Charpy V-notch (Type A) and tensile specimens for measuring the changes in material properties, resulting from irradiation. This is in accordance with ASTM E185-66, " Recommended Practice for Surveillance Tests on Structural Materials in Nuclear Reactors."

The reactor vessel material surveillance program vill utilize a total of four surveillance specimen holder tubes located close to the inside reactor vessel wall. The locations of the holder tubes are shown in 3

Figures 3.2-59 and 3.2-60.

In these positions, the specimens will receive approximately three times as much radiation as the reactor vessel receives.

As recommended in ASTM E185-66, paragraph 4.6, and indicated in the table below, specimens will be withdrawn at three or more separate times, and one of the data points obtained shall correspond to the neutron exposure of the vessel wall near the end of its design life.

As can be seen from Figure 4.2-8, the planned specimen removal program will provide sufficient data points (indicated on curve) to allow con-struction of the curve of NDTT shift versus integrated neutron exposure for the Rancho Seco reactor pressure vessel.

The material from the reacto,r vessel will have its initial NDTT deter-mined by the Charpy V-notch impact correlation with drop weight tests.

3 The predicted shift or change in the NDTT of the vessel material resulting from irradiation is discussed in detail in 4.1.4.1.

-The influence of neutron irradiation on the reactor vessel material properties will be evaluated periodically during plant shutdowns for

-refueling as tabulated below. Adequate specimen holders are provided to permit evaluation on approximately the schedule shown below.
