==SUMMARY==
OF PLANNED CHANGES AND IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE Following a series of teleconferences between Dominion Energy Kewaunee (DEK) and NRC staff regarding the resolution of Generic Letter (GL) 2004-02, DEK has elected to remove fibrous insulation material from the containment building.
The insulation removal, along with other specified changes outlined below, will ensure the fibrous materials remaining in the containment will not form of a thin bed of fiber on the recirculation strainer as a result of post-LOCA generated debris. A thin bed of fiber on the recirculation sump strainer, along with particulate and chemical debris, has the potential to cause high head loss across the strainer and challenge the operation of the containment sump recirculation system.The changes outlined below will address the remaining debris generation and testing concerns identified by NRC staff and will prevent the need to retest the Kewaunee Power Station (KPS) recirculation sump strainer system. The planned changes and the impacts of those changes are presented below, along with an implementation schedule.A.
 
==SUMMARY==
OF PLANNED CHANGES Debris Generation and Transport 1. Fibrous insulation will be removed from components in the RCS loop vaults as follows.a. The fibrous insulation (TempMat) on the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints will be removed and replaced with a nonfibrous material.b. The fibrous insulation on the service water piping that passes through the top of the "B" reactor coolant pump vault will be removed and replaced with a nonfibrous material.2. The JM Thermobestos insulation (calcium silicate insulation with asbestos fibers) in Vault A will be secured with stainless steel banding, similar to that performed in Vault B (opposite train) to enable use of a Zone of Influence (ZOI) size equal to 5.45D.3. Fibrous material remaining in containment will be assumed to be fines and subject to transport to the recirculation sump strainer.4. For analysis purposes, 15% of the fibrous fines, along with 15% of the Thermobestos particulate and qualified coatings, will be assumed to transport to the inactive sump below the reactor vessel (Sump C) during the sump fill prior to the start of recirculation.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 08-0017A Attachment 1 Page 2 of 7 Allowable Latent Debris Quantity to Prevent Thin Bed Effect 5. The allowable quantity of latent debris (dirt, dust) in containment will be limited to 61 Ibm to prevent formation of a thin bed of fiber on the recirculation sump strainer when combined with the remaining fiber in containment.
: 6. A thin bed of fiber on the recirculation sump strainer will be defined as greater than or equal to 1/16 inch.B. ISSUE RESOLUTION AS A RESULT OF THE PLANNED CHANGES The goal of the fibrous insulation removal and Thermobestos insulation banding activities, in combination with revising the maximum allowed latent debris in Containment, will reduce the overall quantity of fibrous material that could be generated by a LOCA such that a thin or thick bed of fiber will not form on the recirculation strainer.Eliminating the potential for a thick or thin bed of fiber will address the NRC concerns regarding PCI strainer testing performed for Kewaunee, such as, but not limited to, the quantity and preparation of fibrous material for testing and the pre-test transport evaluation (e.g., TempMat tumbling velocity applied, computational fluid dynamics model results at the wall opening near the center of the recirculation strainer).
Debris Generation and Transport Removal of the fibrous material from the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints and the Service Water piping in RCS Loop B equipment vaults will eliminate the majority of the fibrous material in the limiting postulated LOCA break locations.
The JM Thermobestos insulation (calcium silicate insulation with asbestos fibers)on the steam generator blowdown piping in Vault A will be secured with stainless steel banding, similar to that performed in Vault B (opposite train) to enable use of a ZOI size equal to 5.45D. Additional locations outside the RCS Loop Vaults may also be banded if deemed necessary to minimize the ZOI size for other non-limiting break locations.
The use of banding, in addition to the current insulation fasteners which consists of a combination of bands, rivets and screws, ensures the calcium silicate lagging configuration is equal to or better than Ontario Power Generation test configuration referenced in NEI 04-07 (Section 9, Reference 7)that resulted in a ZOI size determination of 5.45D. The quantity of Thermobestos material generated in RCS Loop A Vaults following banding activities, is equal to DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 08-0017A Attachment 1 Page 3 of 7 3.7 ft 3 , whereas 10% of this material is fibrous (0.37 ft 3) and 90% is particulate (see response to RAI Question 2). The quantity of Thermobestos material in the RCS Loop B Vaults is 2.3 ft 3 (0.23 ft 3 fibrous).Due to the revised debris inventory following the changes noted above, postulated break locations were re-evaluated to determine if the location of the limiting debris generating break has changed. Table B-1 depicts the review of the postulated break locations and the debris generation for all materials.
This review determined the limiting break remains the RCS Loop B hot leg break at the steam generator.
The new debris inventory will assume all of the noted fibrous material as being Fines (no Smalls or Larges). This is conservative in that all of the fibrous material noted will be assumed to transport to the recirculation strainer.However, the transport of fiber Fines, Thermobestos particulate and qualified coatings will credit transport of 15% of this material to the inactive sump during the recirculation fill prior to the start of recirculation.
The inactive sump, Sump C, is located beneath the reactor vessel. The volume of water in Sump C below the entry point into the sump is 3,500 ft 3 (see response to RAI Question 34) which is> 15% of the recirculation sump water volume at the onset of recirculation (22,550 ft 3) and supports use of the 15% value. Unqualified coatings will not be assumed to transport to Sump C as it is plausible that Sump C would fill prior to debris generation and transport of this debris type.Table B-1 indicates the limiting postulated RCS break that generates the most fibrous debris and detrimental mixture and quantity of debris is the RCS Loop B hot leg break at the steam generator.
A break at the RCS Loop A hot leg break would create a larger quantity of particulate debris, but there would be less fiber on the strainer to filter the particulate.
For either limiting break, the total quantity of fibrous debris will be limited to prevent creating a thin bed of fiber on the recirculation strainer.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 08-0017A Attachment 1 Page 4 of 7 TABLE B-i: BREAK CASES THERMO- THERMO- CERA- LATENT UNQUALIFIED MK EAK BESTOS BESTOS BLANKET FIBER(14)

A new limit of 61 Ibm will be set for the maximum allowable latent debris in Containment.
Historically, a bed of fiber equal to 1/8 inch was believed to cause the most detrimental strainer head loss when particulate is present in the debris mix.Industry strainer head loss testing has identified that higher head losses can occur at lesser fiber thicknesses, especially when calcium silicate is present in the debris mix (NRC Staff Review Guidance Regarding Generic Letter 2004-02 Closure in the Area of Strainer Head Loss and Vortexing, dated March 2008).Kewaunee's recirculation strainer has an effective surface area of 768.7 ft 2.A maximum fiber bed thickness of 1/16 inch is selected to ensure high head loss DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 08-0017A Attachment 1 Page 5 of 7 does not occur from a thin bed of fiber filtering particulate debris. The source of fiber is from latent debris and the small quantities of fibrous materials noted in Table B-1 above. The quantity of calcium silicate particulate debris in Kewaunee's Containment is low (1.8 ft 3 in the limiting break location with the inactive sump credited).
The Containment recirculation sump volume at the onset of recirculation is 22,550 ft 3.This is the volume at the minimum sump water level of 43.44 inches (see RAI Question 32 for further detail). This results in a calcium silicate volume concentration of 7.9 E-05, which is sufficiently low that it would be expected to have a negligible impact on the strainer head loss.Using the fibrous debris load from the limiting RCS hot leg break at the steam generator, and using a maximum fiber bed thickness of 1/16 inch, the maximum quantity of latent debris is determined to be 61 Ibm.TABLE B-2: STRAINER BED THICKNESS FOR 768.7 FT2 STRAINER STRAINER FIBER BED STRICNER S 1/8 IN 1/10 IN 1/12 IN 1/14 IN .i/1,6i IN", THICKNESS Bed Thickness IN 0.125 0.100 0.083 0.071 0.063 Bed Thickness FT 0.010 0.008 0.007 0.006 0.005 Bed Volume FT3 8.007 6.406 5.338 4.575 4.003 Non-Latent Fiber (1) FT3 0.680 0.680 0.680 0.680 0.680 Allowable Latent Fiber FT3 7.327 5.726 4.658 3.895 3.323 Allowable Latent Fiber (2) LBM 17.585 13.741 11.179 9.349 7.976 Allowable Latent Debris LBM 117.232 91.609 74.528 62.327 53.176 44059'~le 7LL , -B M 134.816 105.351 85.707 71.676 61.152"'crdtiniog nja cc______44_MIA____)

The minimum specified quantity of fine fiber and other debris materials used during the tests is presented in Table B-3 below, in comparison to the revised debris load for the limiting break location." Small fiber pieces (Smalls) are not used in the comparison since very few pieces were observed to have transported to the recirculation strainer when the test flume was drained down (see Enclosure 1-4) and the new debris inventory will not include fibrous material larger than Fines." TempMat Fines are not used in the comparison since NRC staff has questioned the debris preparation used for the tests (Fines were questioned as not being prepared with sufficient individual fibers).TABLE B-3: TESTED CONFIGURATION VS.

The method of debris preparation for the Fines used in the test shown in Table B-4 were not questioned by NRC staff (only TempMat Fines preparation was questioned).
* A thin bed of fiber was not formed on the recirculation strainer during the tests as can be seen from the flume draindown photos that show bare strainer surfaces (Enclosure 1-4) and by the low strainer head loss achieved during the tests, even with 200% chemical debris addition to the test flume.* There was sufficient fibrous Fines added to the test flume to create a potential bed thickness between 1/12 and 1/10 inch.This information, along with the responses to the individual RAI questions in /Attachment 2 to this letter, provide assurance that the recirculation strainer flume tests performed by PCI for Kewaunee remain accurate and bounding and negate the need for retest.C. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE The changes will be implemented no later than two refueling outages following the current operating cycle's refueling outage. This will afford the time necessary to conduct additional plant walkdowns, perform design activities, order materials and plan and perform the installation to minimize personnel dose and the impact on plant operations.
Following implementation of these changes, the Kewaunee Updated Safety Analysis Report will be updated to reflect the revised recirculation system design basis, including the maximum allowable fibrous debris in Containment.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 ATTACHMENT 2 RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION GENERIC LETTER 2004-02 DOMINION ENERGY KEWAUNEE, INC.KEWAUNEE POWER STATION DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 1 of 77 RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION KEWAUNEE POWER STATION Dominion Energy Kewaunee (DEK) responded to GL 2004-02 by letters dated March 7, 2005, July 6, 2005, September 1, 2005, February 29, 2008, May 21, 2008, and December 18, 2008. On August 14, 2009, the NRC staff transmitted a request for additional information (RAI) (Reference
: 1) regarding the response to GL 2004-02 for Kewaunee Power Station (KPS). Revised Questions 5, 6, 7, and 12 to the RAI (Reference

One additional clarification was verbally requested during a teleconference with NRC staff on March 4, 2010.Clarification Item -Zone of Influence Size for Inorganic Zinc Coatings NRC Request Please clarify that the Zone of Influence (ZOI) size for qualified inorganic zinc coatings remains as 10D.Response The DEK response dated February 29, 2008 (refer to Tables 3.B-2 and 3.H-2 in response), indicates that KPS implemented a reduced ZOI equal to 4D for the epoxy coating systems listed in the table below. This ZOI reduction was based on evaluating Kewaunee's use of Florida Power & Light's coating test report, JOGAR-06-001, Revision 0.COATING SYSTEMS PRIMER / TOPCOAT(S)

Break Selection NRC Question 1 Please provide the following additional information regarding the break selection evaluation:
: a. the systematic method used in the break selection evaluation, b. the specific locations of the selected breaks along their respective piping component, c. specification of which reactor coolant loop contains the pressurizer, d. justification for not having a reactor vessel nozzle break in the list of break selections.
Response The systematic method used to determine Kewaunee's break selection was provided in our response dated September 1, 2005 (Attachment 1, pg 6 of 19) and February 29, 2008 (Attachment, pages 3 and 4 of 42).Three reactor coolant system (RCS) breaks in Loop (Train) B were evaluated.
Those breaks were: RCS hot leg break at the steam generator, RCS cold leg break at the reactor coolant pump (RCP), and RCS intermediate leg break at the steam generator.
The RCS hot leg break at the steam generator was determined to be the limiting break.RCS Loop B contains the pressurizer and therefore, the RCS breaks in Loop B result in the largest types and/or quantity of debris.Due to the large zone of influence (ZOI) for the debris types present in these areas (see Enclosure A), additional breaks on the RCS loops were not analyzed as the debris source term would not change. The insulation debris materials in RCS Loop B include:* Reflective metal insulation (RMI) (ZOI 28.6D)" TempMat encased in 24 gauge stainless steel panels (ZOI 17D)" Thermobestos (calcium silicate with asbestos fibers) (ZOI 5.45D)" Fiberglass pipe cover (ZOI 17D)* Pressurizer heater fibrous cable insulation (ZOI 17D)A ZOI of 17D or larger encompasses the entire Loop B vaults/compartments (includes reactor coolant pump, steam generator, and pressurizer compartments
-see Enclosure A). The limiting break, RCS hot leg at the steam generator, results in the most detrimental mixture of insulation debris. It creates additional debris due to its location near the pressurizer, such as, RMI debris from the pressurizer and pressurizerr heater fibrous cable insulation debris.The RCS break at a reactor vessel nozzle was initially not analyzed as a limiting debris generation location due to its location outside the RCS Loop B vaults. The nozzles are DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 3 of 77 located within the reactor vessel shield wall, shielded overhead by "sand plugs" each weighing 3,800 lbs. This break will not result in the most detrimental debris generation.
The reactor vessel nozzles are insulated with reflective metal insulation (RMI). Reactor vessel nozzle pipe restraints were installed in 1980 in the shield wall penetrations between the RCS Loop vaults and the reactor vessel sump. The restraints were insulated with 0.032 inch thick stainless steel type 304 sheet metal panels encapsulating 3" thick Johns Manville cerablanket.
The volume of cerablanket insulation in the RCS Loop B hot leg shield wall penetration is estimated at 0.26 ft 3.The volume of cerablanket insulation in the RCS Loop B cold leg shield wall penetration is estimated at 0.5 ft 3.Debris generated due to a RCS pipe break at the reactor vessel nozzle would cause the RMI to blow down to the bottom of inactive Sump C below the reactor vessel. Some small pieces of RMI and the cerablanket material would blow into the RCS Loop B vault compartment and could potentially wash down to the Containment sump (basement) by blowdown or Containment Spray washdown.
However, a break at this location would not produce any other fibrous debris, other than latent fiber, and would result in minimal coating debris. Further, the debris that would blow down to Sump C below the reactor vessel would stay in this location and not transport to the recirculation strainer as the .water in this location does not freely recirculate with the Containment basement sump pool. A RCS pipe break in the RCS Loop vault/compartment would blow the restraint insulation in the shield wall penetration(s) into the void below the reactor vessel.Pictorial views of the analyzed breaks are provided in Enclosure A.As stated in Attachment 1, Kewaunee plans to remove the fibrous TempMat material from the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints and the fibrous insulation on the service water piping in Vault B. Due to these changes, the postulated break locations were re-evaluated, including the reactor vessel nozzle break. The limiting break remains as a RCS Loop B hot leg break at the steam generator.
Refer to Attachment 1, Table B-1.B/C. Debris Generation/Zone of Influence/Characteristics NRC Question 2 Please justify adopting the safety evaluation-approved 5.45D zone of influence for calcium silicate insulation for the Thermobestos installed at Kewaunee by comparing the respective jacketing/banding systems to ensure that the Thermobestos is as well-protected as the Ontario Power Generation-tested calcium silicate insulation.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 4 of 77, Response The calcium silicate insulation (Johns Manville Thermobestos) on the steam generator blowdown lines in Containment was judged to be similar to the calcium silicate insulation tested by Ontario Power Generation (NEI 04-07, Vol 1, Table 3-1). The calcium silicate insulation tested by Ontario Power Generation was clad with 0.016" aluminum jacketing with stainless steel bands (Ontario Hydro Report N-REP-34320-10000-ROO).
Kewaunee's calcium silicate insulation is wrapped in stainless steel (SS)jacketing, 0.010" minimum thickness, and is fastened with a combination of SS rivets, SS bands and SS screws.Type 304 stainless steel jacket on the KPS steam generator blowdown lines has more strength than aluminum jacket. The tensile strength of aluminum alloy 1100, as cited in the Ontario Power Generation Report N-REP-34320-1 0000-ROO, "Jet Impact Tests -Preliminary Results and Their Applications," Ontario Power Generation, April 2001, is 13,000 psi. The tensile strength of Type 304 stainless steel is 73,200 psi. The Ontario Power Generation (OPG) test utilized /2 inch 0.02 inch thickness stainless steel bands to fasten the jacketing.
Kewaunee's insulation jacketing is fastened with a combination of SS rivets, SS bands and SS screws. In lieu of evaluating the strength of the OPG configuration against Kewaunee's various configurations, Kewaunee added 1/2" SS bands, 0.02 inch thickness, 6 inches on center on the Thermobestos insulation in the limiting debris generation break locations (Vault B, RCS Loop B). This change ensures Kewaunee's insulation configuration is bounded by the OPG test configuration.
As indicated in Attachment 1 to this letter, the Thermobestos insulation in Vault A, RCS Loop A, will also be banded to utilize a ZOI of 5.45D at this location as well.Additional Verbal NRC Request Provide the basis for assuming Thermobestos is 10% fibrous.Response The Johns Manville Thermobestos material installed at KPS is assumed to be 10%fibrous material.
Material specification datasheets are not available for this material as it is no longer made and could not be provided by the vendor. Consequently, the material is assumed to be similar to a current Johns Manville product, Thermo-1 2, calcium silicate insulation with cellulose fiber. Thermo-12 has less than10% fibrous material as indicated on the Material Safety Datasheet for this product (Enclosure A-i).NRC Question 3 Please describe the repairs that were made to the calcium silicate (Thermobestos) and fiberglass insulation systems that justify reducing the amounts of debris generated by these two insulation types. State the zones of influence used for these materials in the updated debris generation evaluation.
Provide the bases and assumptions for the DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 5 of 7,7 bases for the zones of influence if they differ from those in the staff safety evaluation (SE) on the NEI Guidance Report 04-07.Response As reported in our February 28, 2009 letter, jacketed calcium silicate (Thermobestos) insulation that could become submerged post-accident was repaired to eliminate gaps in the jacketing.
The location of this insulation is on the steam generator blowdown piping in the Containment basement elevation.
It is not in a large break loss of coolant accident (LOCA) worst case debris-generating zone of influence (not inside the RCS Loop Vaults), therefore, the insulation is not counted in the debris source term. To ensure the insulation remains in place while submerged and does not create calcium silicate insulation debris in the recirculation pool, the gaps in the insulation jacketing exposing the calcium silicate insulation were closed by adding, adjusting or replacing the jacketing, and bands and rivets, as required.Repairs were also made to jacketed fiberglass insulation on the upper elevation of Containment, on the service water lines that supply the reactor vessel shroud cooling coils. This insulation is located above and to the south of the reactor vessel. This insulation is only subject to Containment Spray impingement.
It is not in a debris-generating zone of influence.
The insulation in this location was identified as having many dents and gaps in the 0.010 inch thick stainless steel jacketing that exposed the fiberglass material underneath.
Consequently, a work order was implemented that replaced entire sections of the insulation and jacketing to ensure there would be no gaps in the jacketing that could allow the release of individual fibers into the refueling cavity pool when wetted by Containment Spray.The repaired insulation is not within the scope of insulation planned for removal described in Attachment 1 because it is not in a worst case break location for debris generation.
NRC Question 4 Please verify that all latent debris is assumed to be Fines or provide a justification for any different classification.
Specify separately the amount of latent particulate and latent fiber assumed in the evaluation.
Response All KPS latent debris is assumed to be Fines.Debris is assumed to be 15% fibrous debris and 85% particulate debris (ref. February 29, 2008 response; Section 3.D, Attachment pg 9 of 42) in accordance with NEI 04-07., The latent fiber surrogate selected for strainer flume testing was NUKON processed through a shredder.
The latent particulate selected for strainer flume testing was the DRAFTApril 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 6 of 77 Performance Contracting Incorporated (PCI) Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) Dirt Mix. PWR Dirt Mix consists of various sizes of silica sands, ranging from < 75 microns to 2000 microns.Kewaunee's GSI-191 analyses currently assume a total of 100 Ibm latent debris in Containment, however, as noted in Attachment 1, this value will be reduced to 61 Ibm.The quantity of latent debris used in Kewaunee's large scale flume testing was 100 Ibm (in the design basis case, Test 3) and 115 Ibm (in the supplemental design basis case, Test 9). See also the response to Questions 8 and F.19.c.ii.
NRC Revised Questions 5, 6, 7, and 12 Please provide the following information regarding debris generation, debris transport, and erosion of debris so that the NRC staff can verify that the amounts and size distribution of debris added to the strainer test were appropriate.
Please provide this information for fiberglass, TempMat, and Thermobestos.
: a. The amount of each debris type generated by the limiting break(s), including the size categorization of the debris as it is initially generated by the LOCA blowdown.Include the bases for this information, such as approved guidance or test data.b. The amounts of TempMat, fiberglass pipe cover, and Thermobestos that are considered to erode into fine debris over the entire sump mission time and the basis for the amounts provided.
Include information regarding how the initial size distribution of the debris affected the erosion results for each type of debris.c. Describe how debris that was considered to reach the strainer by the transport calculation and was added to the head loss test flume, but settled prior to reaching the strainer, was treated with respect to erosion. Did the strainer test include a sufficient quantity of fine debris to account for this source? Debris of interest includes Thermobestos, fiberglass, and TempMat. If a sufficient quantity of fine debris to account for the eroded Fines from these components was not added to the test, provide a justification for not doing so or show that the test was not affected non-conservatively by this issue.d. The amount of each debris type added to the head loss test broken down into the size components fine, small, large, intact. Please include a description of what each debris component represents.
: e. The scaling factor used during strainer testing and the basis for this factor.Response As noted in Attachment 1 to this letter, Kewaunee will remove the TempMat insulation from the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints and will remove the fiberglass pipe cover from the Service Water piping in the RCS Loop B Vault. Following these two DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 7 of 77 modifications, there will not be any TempMat or fiberglass pipe cover in the limiting break locations, a RCS hot leg break in either RCS Loop. Therefore, only Thermobestos material will be addressed in this RAI response.The quantity of Thermobestos material generated by the limiting breaks, a RCS hot leg break at either RCS Loop A or RCS Loop B, and the quantity of material placed in the large scale strainer flume tests is addressed in Attachment 1, Tables B-1 and B-3. For either limiting break location, there will be insufficient fibrous material generated to create a thin bed of fiber on the strainer, that when filtering particulate, would result in the strainer head loss exceeding the maximum allowable loss of 10 ft of water.The ZOI size used for Thermobestos material, 5.45D, is addressed in response to Question 2, and in Attachment 1 to this letter.The fibrous portion of the Thermobestos material will be considered as Fine fiber, therefore, erosion of this material is no longer applicable.
The surrogate materials used during the large scale flume tests were: o 10% fibrous portion: TempMat Smalls -this material should have been Fines and therefore, is not credited in Attachment 1, Table B-3.o 90% particulate portion: Pulverized calcium silicate powder. A photograph of, adding pulverized calcium silicate powder to the test flume can be found in Enclosure B.The 2008 large scale flume tests were performed with a 7.129% scaling factor. One full-sized strainer module supplied from Kewaunee's inventory was used in the large scale flume tests. The strainer module has a surface area of 54.8 ft2 when fully submerged, as it was during the tests. Kewaunee's installed strainer has 14 modules with a total surface area of 768.7 ft2. Therefore, the test strainer was 7.129 percent of the size of the installed strainer (54.8 / 768.7) and the debris load for the test was scaled to place 7.129% of the specified material*
in the flume. (*Specified material was debris quantity determined to transport to the strainer, plus margin.)D. Latent debris NRC Question 8 The staff noted that the licensee provided estimates of the mass of latent fiber and particulate.
However, only a brief description of the methodology used to estimate the quantity of the latent debris was provided.
The staff determined that the methodology was not presented in sufficient detail to judge its adequacy and conservatism.
Similarly the staff noted that although the licensee provided quantitative estimates of the area of tapes, tags, signs and stickers, the procedure used was described insufficiently to judge DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 8 of 77 the adequacy and conservatism of the evaluation.
The staff also noted that latent debris quantity (11.3 Ibm) is the lowest measured latent debris quantity of any pressurized-water reactor plant (approximately 1/1 0 th the median value), even though the Containment sampling was performed during a relatively dirty condition with work in progress.
The licensee stated that its strainer head loss analysis and testing assume 100 Ibm of latent debris, substantially greater than the 11.3 Ibm measured but staff notes, that many plants (including some with low amounts of fibrous and/or particulate insulation), have measured more than 100 Ibm of latent debris in Containment, so staff needs to have confidence that the licensee's sampling method is sufficiently accurate that the 100 Ibm assumed for testing is conservative.
Therefore, please describe the surfaces where samples were collected and the number of samples per surface. Please justify that the sample locations were representative of floors, walls, ductwork and equipment surfaces where latent debris could collect. Please summarize the extrapolation/statistical method used to estimate the total latent debris quantity in Containment.
Response Kewaunee is a relatively small PWR with a low latent debris load. The Containment parameters are as follows:* 597 MWe* 105 ft inside diameter* 192 ft height -basement floor elevation to dome roof* 1,320,000 ft3 free volume 0 Four floor elevations 0 Reflective metal insulation (RMI) plant* Coated surfaces The following latent debris sampling and evaluation procedures were forwarded to the Staff for their review on September 16, 2009 (forwarded by e-mail): Note: The following procedures were superseded by Dominion fleet procedure CM-AA-CRS-101, Revision 2, and calculation Cl1928, Revision 0, in February 2010. See response below.* NEP-04.23, Containment Latent Debris Sample Collection, Rev. 2* NEP-04.22, Containment Latent Debris Sampling Evaluation, Rev. 2 Initial latent debris sampling and evaluation was performed in October 2004. The evaluation quantified 11.3 Ibm latent debris. Fifteen samples were collected.
The first three samples were discarded as "practice samples" and one sample with weight loss was not used. The evaluation was based on the eleven remaining samples. With a small number of samples and using statistical analysis, this resulted in a high assumed debris load for some categories.

The debris load for cable trays is assumed to be the same as horizontal ventilation ducts.The evaluation methodology used for the latent debris quantification is as follows.Debris samples were grouped by surface type: floors, Containment liner, ventilation ductwork, cable trays subject to Containment Spray impingement and walls.The Sample Mean and the Sample Standard Deviation were determined for the debris mass found per unit area.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 10 of 77 Where: X -mean 1or group of samples (g/ftM)xi- individual sample mass per area (gift 2-n -number of samples in group S- sample standard deviation (g/ft 2 Assuming the debris is normally distributed, and the number of samples is small relative to the total population, an upper limit on the mean debris loading was determined from the T-distribution.

DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 11 of 77" The number of latent debris samples collected by our program is low compared to others* There are additional surfaces in Containment that should be added to our program, and* Kewaunee's Containment is smaller than many PWRs Consequently, the following changes were recently made to Kewaunee's program: 1. The initial latent debris evaluation performed for Kewaunee by a vendor was embedded in the debris generation calculation.
A new calculation has been issued that supersedes the latent debris portion of the initial vendor calculation.
The new calculation will be used in concert with Dominion fleet procedure, CM-AA-CRS-1 01, Latent Debris Collection and Sampling Procedure, Revision 2, which was adopted at Kewaunee in February 2010. The new calculation:
* Provides guidance where to collect latent debris samples." Specifies obtaining at least 24 usable samples, with samples from each of the surface types." Specifies additional surface area and surface types. Debris loading for the newly identified surfaces in the evaluation was assumed based on sample results from similar surfaces.
Additional samples are scheduled to be taken during the next refueling outage in 2011." The revised quantity of latent debris in Containment is 21.903 lbs. The revised quantity is bounded by the 100 Ibm latent debris assumed in the GSI-191 analyses, and the 100 Ibm latent particulate and 15 Ibm latent Fine fiber used in the large scale flume testing. Note: As indicated in Attachment 1, the new maximum allowable quantity of latent debris in Containment will be limited to 61 Ibm to ensure a thin bed of fiber cannot form on the recirculation strainer.The new latent debris calculation, C1l1928, Revision 0, is included as Enclosure C-1.2. As noted in Item 1 above, the Dominion fleet procedure for latent debris sampling, CM-AA-CRS-101, Revision 2, was adopted at Kewaunee in February 2010.Kewaunee-specific Nuclear Engineering Procedures (NEP), NEP-04.22 and NEP-04.23, were subsequently deleted. Revision 2 of the Dominion fleet procedure, CM-AA-CRS-1 01, incorporated Kewaunee-specific latent debris sampling and evaluation guidance.The fleet procedure, when used with Kewaunee's latent debris evaluation calculation, provides guidance similar to that found previously in procedures NEP-04.22 and NEP-04.23, with the following exceptions:
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 12 of 77" The fleet procedure allows use of masslin cloth or a vacuum with a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter for sample collection.
The previous Kewaunee procedure, NEP-04.23, only specified using a vacuum for sample collection.
* The fleet procedure specifies a sampling frequency of every fifth refueling outage if cleaning is performed each refueling outage, or every-other-refueling outage if routine cleaning is not performed.
Sampling is also specified to be conducted after any invasive or extended maintenance (steam generator replacement, for example), or on any frequency specified by the site GSI-191 Program Owner. Kewaunee has adopted this sampling frequency specified by the fleet procedure.
Dominion fleet procedure, CM-AA-CRS-101, Latent Debris Collection and Sampling Procedure, Revision 2, is included as Enclosure C-2.E. Debris Transport NRC Question 9 Insufficient information was provided in the supplemental response to demonstrate that the debris interceptor testing was conducted in a manner that is prototypical of the expected plant condition.
If the interceptor tests are not being used to demonstrate adequate strainer performance, please so state, and the additional questions below need not be addressed.
If the interceptor tests are being used to demonstrate adequate strainer performance, then please provide the following additional information concerning the debris interceptor testing: a. the basis for adding debris with the test pump stopped b. a description of the procedure for preparing fine debris c. a discussion as to whether fine and small debris were prepared and weighed separately to determine the quantities used for testing d. discussion concerning the concentration in the debris slurries prepared for testing and the potential for debris to agglomerate during preparation and addition in a nonprototypical manner e. description of the debris addition sequence for all types and sizes of debris used in the test. If particulate debris was not included, then please justify not including it in the testing, since it could result in increased flow restriction at the interceptors, leading to greater flow over the tops of the interceptors, consequently increasing downstream transport.
: f. description of how far in front of the debris interceptor the debris was added to the test flume and a technical basis g. description of whether a case considering total blockage at the debris interceptors was considered in the test matrix DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 13 of 77 h. the technical basis for scaling the debris quantity used for debris interceptor testing to the total debris interceptor area i. description of the extent to which floating transport was analyzed by the test program, since the debris was likely mixed with water (thereby removing trapped air)prior to the test initiation
: j. discussion of any sources of drainage from Containment Spray, the refueling canal, the pipe rupture, etc., that enter the Containment pool near the strainer, and the technical basis for considering the overhead sprays used in the test as representative of the plant condition that would likely involve more concentrated streams of break and spray drainage k. comparison of the range of velocity and turbulence conditions used for the debris interceptor testing to the computational fluid dynamics calculation for the plant condition and the technical basis for the flow conditions used for the testing I. discussion of the flume width and water level used for flume testing and whether these parameters are representative of the analogous parameters for Kewaunee m. description of the physical characteristics of the debris interceptors including at a minimum the height of the interceptors, the size of any openings in the interceptors, and the total surface area of the debris interceptors
: n. discussion of the specific individual percentages of the Fines and of small pieces that transported downstream of the debris interceptors
: o. the technical basis for using a 40% Fines and 25% small pieces size distribution for Thermobestos and Okotherm debris. Please further describe the form of the remaining 35% of the Thermobestos and Okotherm debris and provide a technical basis for this debris not being considered as transporting to the debris interceptors either in its destroyed form or as eroded Fines.p. description of how the results of the debris interceptor testing are being applied to the Kewaunee strainer performance analysis and identification of the quantities of each type and size of debris assumed to be trapped on the plant debris interceptors.
: q. description of the methodology used to determine the differential pressure across the debris interceptors due to debris blockage to ensure structural adequacy.r. explanation for why the interceptor tests with less debris added to the flume experienced greater percentages of debris downstream of the interceptor.
Response The debris interceptor fiber transport test results reported in our February 29, 2008 letter were performed to model the recirculation system with the debris interceptors in the flume.The debris interceptors are sections of C8x18.75 channel placed between the interior and outer Containment walls to surround the strainer.
The debris interceptors act similar to the existing concrete curb that the original recirculation strainer was installed on. The debris interceptors can prevent debris that may be traveling along the Containment floor from reaching the strainer.
The interceptors are 8.375 inches tall (8 inch channel height, mounted on 3/8 inch steel plate). The debris interceptor DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 14 of 77 arrangement is shown in Enclosure D. The lengths of the three debris interceptors are as follows: " The debris interceptor on south end of strainer (near end module) is 9 feet 2.6 inches in length* The debris interceptor on the west side of the strainer, between the two interior Containment basement walls, is six feet in length" The debris interceptor on the north end of the strainer (near the exit piping) is 8 feet 3.4 inches in length The purpose of the debris interceptor fiber transport tests was to determine the quantity of fiber that collects on the recirculation sump strainer without artificially placing the debris directly on the strainer as was done during the 2006 tests. Although the results of the fiber transport tests are still valid, subsequently, Kewaunee performed a series of large scale flume tests to measure strainer head loss with the design basis debris load and with an improved chemical debris surrogate.
The debris interceptors were modeled in the large flume. The large scale flume tests are the design basis strainer head loss tests, therefore, the questions related to the debris interceptor tests will not be addressed.
NRC Question 10 The supplemental response described erosion testing that was used as a basis for the assumption of 10 percent erosion of fiberglass pipe cover and Temp Mat fibrous debris.a. Please describe the test facility used and demonstrate the similarity of the flow conditions (velocity and turbulence), chemical conditions, and fibrous material present in the erosion tests to the analogous conditions applicable to the plant condition.
: b. Please justify taking credit for any erosion tests conducted at a minimum tumbling velocity if debris settling was credited in the test flume for velocities in excess of this value (e.g., in front of the debris interceptor).
: c. Please identify the duration of the erosion tests and describe how the results were extrapolated to the sump mission time.Response As noted in Attachment 1 to this letter, Kewaunee will remove the TempMat insulation from the pressurizer surge line restraints and will remove the fiberglass pipe cover from the RCS Loop B Vault. Following these two modifications, there will not be any TempMat or fiberglass pipe cover in the limiting break locations, a RCS hot leg break in either RCS Loop. Therefore, this RAI is no longer applicable.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 15 of 77 NRC Question 11 Please identify whether erosion of Thermobestos debris in the Containment pool was accounted for in the sump performance analysis.
Please state the erosion percentage assumed over a 30-day period and discuss the technical basis for the assumed erosion'percentage.
Response See response to "NRC Revised Questions 5, 6, 7, and 12".NRC Question 12 See "NRC Revised Questions 5, 6, 7, and 12" above.NRC Question 13 Please identify the computational fluid dynamics code used to determine the flow pattern in the Containment pool and provide an overview of the simulations run and modeling assumptions.
In addition to this general discussion, please also provide the following specific information:
: a. description of how the debris interceptors were modeled in the input deck (e.g., as a porous medium, fully blocked, time-dependent modeling, etc.) and how the flow split between the various interceptors was determined.
: b. description of the locations where drainage from the break, Containment Sprays, and any other sources of significant water addition, is assumed to enter the Containment pool and how they are modeled in the code.c. description of the size of the computational domain and boundary conditions in the model.d. discussion of the main physical models used in the computational fluid dynamics simulation (e.g., turbulence).
: e. basis for concluding that the simulations run are bounding with respect to debris transport.
Response Kewaunee's computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of the recirculation sump pool was performed by Alden Research Laboratories (ARL). ARL utilized the following computer codes in the development of the CFD: Fluent, Version 6.1.22 Gambit, Version 2.1.6 AutoCAD, Version 2008 Microsoft Excel 2007 DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 16 of 77 FLUENT Version 6.1.22, is a state-of-the-art general-purpose commercial CFD software for modeling flows involved in complicated geometries.
Fluent version 6.1.22 was used to perform the Kewaunee Power Station CFD simulations.
GAMBIT Version 2.1.6 was used to generate the computational mesh and define boundary conditions on surfaces required to perform the CFD simulation.
The final solid model included all pertinent features from floor elevation to the water surface elevation at the start of the recirculation.
Microsoft Excel 2007 was used for general spreadsheet calculations.
AutoCAD Version 2008 was used to compute the projected areas where-the velocity exceeds the incipient tumbling velocity.The objective of the CFD analysis was to model the entire Containment basement, determine the sump pool area velocities, and determine the amount of debris, classified by type and size, which could potentially transport to the Containment sump strainer or debris interceptor areas during the recirculation phase of a LOCA.The Containment sump pool was segregated into six zones for the purpose of debris transport analysis.
Debris transport is determined by comparing the sump pool velocity in each zone to the incipient tumbling velocity for each debris type in the zone. If the Containment sump zone has transport velocities higher than the debris' tumbling velocity, the debris is assumed to transport towards the strainer and/or debris interceptor area.The analytical methodology follows the methodology outlined in NEI 04-07 and in NRC Safety Evaluation Report (SER) for NEI 04-07. A steady state CFD simulation was performed for the worst-case debris generating break scenario (RCS Loop B hot leg break) to a converged solution.
The CFD results were post-processed by plotting three-dimensional (3D) surfaces of constant velocity.
The extent of the 3D surfaces were projected onto a horizontal plane to form a flat contour. Closed curves around the projected velocity contour were automatically digitized and the area within the curves was calculated.
The area calculated was compared to the total floor area of the zone containing the particular debris type/size under consideration.
This comparison was made to determine the fraction of the floor area susceptible to transport.
The results of each calculation were tabulated to determine the total fraction of debris transported toward the strainer area for each debris type.The model was created as follows: " The model was prepared using plant drawings, photographs and dimensions provided by Dominion staff from field walkdowns.
* Objects above the defined water surface elevation of 595.375 ft (Containment vessel floor elevation 592 ft + water depth 40.5 inches = 595.375 ft) were not included in the model.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 17 of 77" Relatively small individual objects less than six (6) inches in longest dimension were not included in the model." Walls, concrete columns and steel support columns are addressed in the model since they are considered to play an important role in restricting flow. Typically the walls and concrete columns have regular shape and are modeled as shown in the plant drawings.
For some steel support columns, the detailed structure, such as the anchor bolts, are not modeled or their shape is simplified." The strainer has 14 modules which each has 6 disks. Instead of modeling each disk, each strainer module is simplified as a cubic box with dimensions of 2.25 ft wide, 0.71446 ft long, and 2.89583 ft high and its six faces (top, bottom, north, south, east, west) are open to flow. The cross shape structures on the sides of the strainer modules are not modeled." The modules are connected by a pipe with a diameter of 18" which is modeled.* The three debris interceptors at the entrance of the three openings to the strainer area are modeled as solid shapes. The 3/8 inch gap between the interceptor bottom and the floor is ignored and is blocked to flow.* The refueling cavity filter skid near the strainer assembly is simplified by modeling four cylinders 32" high and 10" in diameter, and 14 cylinders 32" high and 5" in diameter.
All the cylinders are sitting on a 47 high flat slab." The reactor coolant drain tank is surrounded by solid walls. The tank is not included in the model, but the walls are included." The regenerative heat exchanger is not included in the model. It is assumed not to influence the general flow pattern in the Containment sump because it is a relatively long distance from the strainer area and it is located within a rectangular shape cubicle with three wall sides.* The service water valve gallery (cluster), in Zone 6 and out of the main recirculation flow path, was modeled as a solid cube for simplification.
An overview of the CFD simulations follows: Using the solid model, a body-fitted hybrid (hexahedral and tetrahedral cell topology)three dimensional mesh was constructed in GAMBIT, including objects submerged underneath the selected water surface level in the Containment.
This geometry was meshed in GAMBIT. The Containment was divided into six proximity zones for debris transportation analysis.
The mesh was structured according to the division of the zones. Each zone included a few volumes. The meshed volumes in each zone were grouped as one fluid group. Although hybrid mesh topology was used accordingly, hexahedral topology was applied as much as possible.
The entire computational domain was meshed and consists of about 2.7 million cells. Finer mesh was distributed in Zones 1 through 5, which are closer to the strainer modules. Inflow and outflow boundaries for the numerical model were specified in GAMBIT. ARL developed a method for introducing the break flow into the pool, at the water surface, which preserved the momentum and vertical trajectory of the break flow but did not require extending the numerical simulation to the elevation of the break. Spray flow into the pool at the water surface was included in this study. The computational mesh and inflow/outflow boundary specifications were exported from GAMBIT and imported into DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 18 of 77 the FLUENT CFD software program. The values for each boundary condition were set in FLUENT as were the properties of the working fluid (water). Two-equation standard turbulence k-s model with wall functions was used to compute the turbulence kinetic energy, k, and its dissipation rate, F. The computed k and c were used to calculate the turbulence viscosity which was used to close the governing equations.
Steady-state converged solution was obtained.A variety of hydrodynamic parameters were available from the steady-state converged results. Among these parameters and which were used in this study for analysis included velocity components in x, y, and z directions.
It should be pointed out that beside the velocities, the pressure, kinetic energy and its dissipation rate were used to monitor and control the convergence of solution.Two flow simulations were modeled: " The condition at the initiation of recirculation.
Flow to the RCS and out the RCS break is equal to 4456 gpm which is the maximum RWST injection (2586 gpm, SI and RHR) plus recirculation flow through the strainer (1870 gpm). An additional 1390 gpm Containment Spray injection flow enters the sump pool. This condition is modeled at the minimum sump level at the initial onset of recirculation and lasts approximately 14 minutes.* The long term recirculation condition.
This is modeled as 1870 gpm flow through the recirculation strainer that enters the RCS and spills from the RCS back to the sump.For conservatism and simplification, this scenario is modeled at the same minimum sump water level, however, the actual sump water level at this condition would be significantly higher.Both flow simulations were prepared for the limiting break, a RCS Loop B hot leg break.A break in RCS Loop B not only creates the worst quantity and combination of debris, but RCS Loop B is also physically closer to the recirculation sump strainer.
Closer proximity to the strainer results in a more conservative evaluation of turbulence caused by the RCS spill flow as well as debris distance traveled.See also the Alden presentations from the September 15, 2009, and November 10, 2009, teleconferences, included as Enclosures E-1 and E-2.See also response to Questions E.15, velocity and turbulence contour plots, and E. 16, debris distance traveled.NRC Question 14 Drainage from the elevation above the Containment basement was assumed to reach the Containment pool primarily through the south stairwell due to a 2-inch floor collar, weirs, and a toe-rail at the north stairwell.
Following a loss of coolant accident, if large pieces of debris are able to settle out on this floor elevation, flow to the south stairwell DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 19 of 77 could be partially restricted, resulting in pooling of water and redirection of part of the drainage through the north stairwell that is closer to the Containment sump strainer.Please describe how these phenomena were analyzed in the debris transport calculation, how flow to the Containment pool was distributed between the north and south stairwells, and whether any hold up of water on this elevation was considered.
Response Note: As indicated in Attachment 1 to this letter, Kewaunee will remove the TempMat insulation from the pressurizer surge pipe whip restraints and will remove the fiberglass pipe cover from the Service Water piping in RCS Loop B Vault. These two activities will eliminate any fibrous debris that would be larger than Fines. Reflective metal insulation, although not transportable in the Kewaunee sump pool, is still a generated debris larger than Fines, therefore, this RAI will be responded to.The steam generators, reactor coolant pumps and pressurizer are located inside concrete compartments (referred to as "vaults").
The RCS piping, except immediately adjacent to the reactor nozzles, is located inside the vaults (refer to Enclosure A).Inside the vaults are horizontal steel grate work platforms and solid concrete floor surfaces, and vertical wall partitions.
The concrete vault structures are open to the Containment on top, above the highest floor elevation (see Enclosure M, page 2), and are open to the Containment at the bottom of the Vaults, approximately 13 ft above the Containment basement floor elevation.
Debris generated by a LOCA inside the vaults could wash down to the sump (basement elevation) from the openings in the vaults, or could be ejected into the upper Containment elevation.
Debris ejection into the upper Containment elevation would be minimal or limited to small debris due to the concrete and steel structures and components inside the vaults (see response to RAI Question 40).Potential LOCA pipe break locations outside the Vaults include a break at the reactor vessel nozzle, or piping connected to the RCS with a much smaller diameter than the RCS. A reactor vessel nozzle break is not a limiting debris generation location (see Response to Question 1). There are no breaks outside the Vaults that would generate large debris on the Containment floor elevations above the basement floor as to cause a potential for debris blockage of the drainage path down the unobstructed south stairwell.
Containment Spray drainage enters the Containment basement via the following main paths: 1) spray into upper vaults that drains to the basement out the bottom of the vaults, 2) spray into the refueling cavity that drains to the Containment basement via the cavity drain, 3) spray onto solid floor surfaces that drains to lower floor elevations and eventually to the basement via unobstructed floor penetrations (on two upper floor elevations only; the floor elevation above the Containment basement has collars around floor penetrations
), 4) down unobstructed stairwells, or 5) through floor drains that lead to an isolated waste sump that overflows into the basement/sump elevation.
There is DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 20 of 77 no Containment Spray after the RWST injection phase ends for the design basis event (recirculation spray is not used in response to a design basis event).The calculation of minimum sump water level at the initiation of recirculation assumes water holdup on all floor elevations due to Containment Spray drainage that has not yet reached the sump (see response to Question 34).Views of the Containment Vault configurations are included as Enclosures A, E-3 (new)and M.NRC Question 15 Please provide contour plots of the velocity and turbulence in the Containment pool.Please also provide close-up plots of the velocity and turbulence contours in the region of the strainer and its immediate surroundings.
In addition, please provide a table of the head loss test flume (average) velocity as a function of distance from the test strainer and the basis for the velocities chosen. Please identify the turbulence level simulated in the test flume and state the flume width(s) used for testing.Response Note: As indicated in Attachment I to this letter, following removal of the fibrous insulation material on the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints and the Service Water piping in RCS Loop B Vaults, all remaining fibrous material in Containment will be considered Fines and subject to transport to the strainer and is not of sufficient quantity to create a thin bed of fiber on the strainer.See Enclosure E-2 for the ARL presentation used during the November 10, 2009 telecon between Dominion staff, their vendors and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
The pictorials on the following page display the layout of the Containment sump. For the limiting break, RCS Loop B hot leg break at the Steam Generator (SG), the break location is located one elevation above Zone 1. RCS break flow exits the SG/Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) vault and washes into the sump from three vault openings.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 21 of 77 VDebris Interceptor C8x18.75 channel (typ.)Concrete support wall (typ.)SStrainer Debris Interceptor I Break Flow to Sump 0 0 Over north and south ledges Through 2x3 ft hatch T Flow exiting the vault above Zone 1 washes primarily into Zones 2, 4 and 6 during the sump pool fill phase.Velocity contour plots for the Containment sump were prepared.

The minimum sump water level at the onset of recirculation is calculated as 43.44 inches and the sump water level during long term recirculation is > 5.75 ft.

Flow exiting the upper elevation falling out of the 2x3 ft hatch above Zone 1 (see first pictorial above), penetrates the water column and spreads along DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 26 of 77 the floor of Containment.
The jet sets up a vortical flow field. When the jet hits the debris interceptor, the water is forced vertically upward and sets up a complex three dimensional flow field that allows only a portion of the flow to penetrate to the strainer side of the debris interceptor.
This results in higher approach velocities at the north and south ends of the strainer.I lJ00l+00*5.061 9.006-01 7.50-l01 7.00.-C1 6.560101 6.00.-01 450.-01 4.60"1C 4.00,01 3.50641 3.00s-01 2 .00@-Cl 1.000-CI 5.000-02 Hatch Flow Spreads Along the Floor i oroldal i-low Pattern The velocity field calculated for long term recirculation was used as the basis to develop the approach velocity to the strainer in the test flume. Three main approaches exist to the strainer, from the left (south), right (north) and center (west) as viewed in the figures.The west approach is limited by the debris interceptor and the toroidal flow field at that location that results in flow both toward and away the strainer with little net flow. The average velocities calculated over each of the approaches to the strainer were then DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 27 of 77 averaged again, weighting the highest velocity double to more conservatively represent the overall approach to the strainer.
The approach planes were trimmed to neglect any stagnant areas of flow in the general approach area. The following table shows the approach velocities calculated in this manner as a function of distance away from the strainer.
The table also includes the flume width calculated based on the modeled module flow rate and water depth (40.5 in.). Finally, the table also includes the local Reynolds Number obtained at each location in the flume. Although the Reynolds Numbers are low, they are firmly above that required for turbulent free surface flow (2000). The figure that follows compares the turbulence calculated over the same approaches in the Containment and in the test flume. The turbulence plotted for the flume represents the effective turbulence level, accounting for the significant difference in viscosity between the test temperature and the Containment recirculation temperature (1100 F vs. 2000 F).DISTANCE FROM VELOCITY FLUME WIDTH HYDRAULIC REYNOLDS STRAINER (FT/SEC) (IN.)

It is not of sufficient quantity to create a thin bed of fiber on the strainer.NRC Question 16 Please identify the distance from the strainer at which debris was added to the test flume. Please justify the conservatism or prototypicality of this distance based on the transport analysis results for blowdown, washdown, and pool-fill transport.
Response The large scale flume tests conducted at ARL in August 2008 measured strainer debris bed head loss. Other than latent fiber addition which is addressed in F.19.c.ii, debris was introduced into the flume via the drop zone, 29 ft upstream of the strainer.ARL performed an analysis to determine the distance debris traveled in the sump pool to the strainer area. Refer to Enclosure E-2. Note: Enclosure E-2 indicates transport of material to the inactive sump (Sump C) is not credited.
As stated in Attachment I to this letter, the revised debris inventory will credit 15% of fibrous Fines, Thermobestos particulate and qualified coatings as transporting to the inactive sump.The following is a description of the sump pool fill transport: " As shown in Enclosure E-2, for purpose of conducting the CFD, the Containment sump was divided into six zones." Zone 1 is located one elevation below the RCS Loop B RCP and SG vaults where the limiting debris generation break occurs. The flow path out of the vault area into the basement/sump is over the north and south ledges of the elevated vault, and through a 2 ft x 3 ft hatch opening in the vault floor slab." Flow exiting the vault above Zone 1 washes primarily into Zones 2, 4 and 6 due to the large sump volume in these zones.* Zone 6, which is located the farthest away from the recirculation strainer, contains > 60% of the sump volume. Therefore, a significant quantity of debris will wash into this area during sump pool fill. This transport of debris away from the strainer during pool fill was not credited in the CFD debris transport analysis.ARL determined the distance traveled by the debris using the CFD and peak transport conditions (start of recirculation with RWST injection in progress).
The six Containment zones were subdivided where appropriate according to the fraction of flow in each zone.The centroid of each zone or subzone is determined and the distance from each DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 29 of 77 centroid to the strainer is calculated.
Using a relatively low tumbling velocity for debris, 0.06 ft/sec for example, the distance measured from the centroid of each zone/subzone to the strainer was calculated as follows (refer to Enclosure E-2 for pictorial view):.ZONE DISTANCE (FT) COMMENT Z11 41.14 Z13 39.43 Z2 39.56 Z3 24.18 Z4 30.74 Z5 6.10 Zone 5 is the strainer area Z61 61.73 Z63 88.06 Using this same methodology, the zones were divided based on the fraction of flow for, the selected sump pool velocity, the centroid was determined for each zone and the distance from the centroid to the strainer for each zone was measured.
The quantity and type of debris in each zone was considered and the resultant debris travel distances are determined:

These tests were conducted in a large flume with heated (approximately 1200 F) water. The large scale flume included a heat recirculation loop with a heat recirculation pump and 800,000 BTU/hr heat exchanger.
Use of heated water eliminated trapped air bubbles in the debris and resulted in minimal floating debris.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 30 of 77 Prior to entry into the flume, non-chemical debris was placed in hot water (~120' F) and mixed to help eliminate trapped air in the debris.Additional Verbal NRC Request Address the potential for debris transport via floatation in the Containment.
Response As indicated in Attachment 1 to this letter, following removal of the fibrous insulation on the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints and the Service Water piping in RCS Loop B, the remaining fibrous material in Containment will be considered as Fines and subject to transport to the recirculation strainer.
The total quantity of fibrous material will be limited to prevent creating a thin bed of fiber on the recirculation strainer that can filter particulates and result in a high strainer head loss. Because all debris generated ig.assumed to transport to the strainer, this question is no longer applicable.
F. Head Loss and Vortexing NRC Question 18 Please provide the clean strainer head loss (CSHL) methodology for the non-strainer portions of the assembly.
Please provide the assumptions used for the CSHL calculation.
Response PCI calculated Kewaunee's clean strainer head loss. The CSHL value includes losses from the strainer assembly, as well as the exit piping that discharges the strained water into the recirculation sump pit where the RHR pumps take suction. The following presents first the CSHL calculation for the strainer assembly, and then the non-strainer components, i.e., the attached discharge piping and sump entry.Strainer Assembly CSHL The following equation was used to calculate the strainer exit velocities:
4r Vex = Qstr / Aex Where, Qstr = strainer water flow rate, gpm x 0.002228 to convert to ft 3/sec Aex = exit area, or cross section area of the inside of the strainer's core, ft 2 Vex = Strainer Exit Velocity, ft/sec DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 31 of 77 The equation for the strainer only CSHL, i.e., without any pipe and/or fitting losses, is: HLstrainer-A + K 1 v Vex + K 2 (Vex 2 / 2g)Where, v = water's kinematic viscosity, ft 2/sec (a function of water temperature) g = gravitational constant, which is 32.2 ft / sec 2 A = a constant with a very small value of 0.002205 feet of water -0, and is therefore ignored K 1 = a coefficient multiplied by v to allow adjustment to the water temperature K 2 = another coefficient that is multiplied times the dynamic head of the water at the strainer's exit.Coefficients, K 1 and K 2 have the following values (determined by a regression analysis of the PCI test data): K 1 = 1,024 and K 2 = 0.8792 With the values of the coefficients determined and utilizing the CSHL equation, the Base Head Loss, HLBase was calculated for different water temperatures where the value of kinematic viscosity, v is selected based on the design basis water temperature.
Kewaunee specified a conservative long term sump water temperature of 65&deg;F. The actual base CSHL is computed using the value of Exit Velocity, Vex for the particular water flow rate. Selecting a value of v. for the water temperature, the Exit Velocity is computed using Vex = Qstr / Aex and the values of specified water flow rate values, respectively, for the Kewaunee strainer.
Each strainer's core tube has an 18.00 inch outside diameter and a 0.06 inch wall thickness.
Therefore, the value of internal cross sectional area of the core tube is computed by the following equations:
Aex = 71 Dex 2 /4 Where, Dex = inner core tube diameter Dex = outer diameter -2 x core tube wall thickness= 17.88 inches Therefore, Aex = 1.744 ft 2 Using the computed value for Aex the Exit Velocity, Vex, for the strainer assembly is computed using the specified flow rate of 1920 gpm (see response to Questions 33 and 19.c for flow rate discussion).
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 32 of 77 Vex = Qstr / Aex= 1920 gpm x 0.002228 ft 3/s/gpm / 1.744 ft 2= 2.453 ft/s The resultant value for Vex was then used to calculate the CSHL from the previously discussed equations as follows: HLstrainer=

The strainer discharge flow enters a short straight run of pipe where it passes through a horizontal 120 mitered elbow, then enters a straight run of pipe. The flow then enters a horizontal 34.30 mitered elbow, a short straight run of pipe, and a horizontal 55.00 mitered elbow that aligns the strainer discharge pipe to the sump cover. At the sump cover, the strainer discharge flow passes through a 900 short radius elbow that discharges into the sump pit reservoir.
Head loss was calculated for each subcomponent, then summed and added to the strainer assembly head loss to obtain the total clean strainer head loss. The subcomponent calculations are provided below.Straight Pipe The piping between the strainer assembly and the sump pit cover plate is 18 inch OD schedule 10S stainless steel with a 0.25 inch wall thickness.
The pipe's inside diameter is slightly less than that of the core tube (i.e., 17.50 inch vs. 17.88 inch). For the pipe, the ID = OD -2 x wall thickness
= 18.00 -2 (0.25) = 17.50 inches or 1.458 feet, which we will call DID. The cross-sectional area, Apipe, of the pipe is then calculated.
Apipe = TT DID 2 / 4= 1.670 ft 2 With the pipe cross-sectional area determined, the flow velocity, Vpipe is calculated.
Vpipe = Qstr / Apipe= 1920 x 0.002228 / 1.670 Vpipe = 2.562 ft/s The straight pipe runs cumulatively total approximately 156 inches, or 13 feet. Using this length as a bounding value, along with the flow velocity, Vpipe, an estimate of the head loss resulting from this straight pipe is determined.
The Darcy-Weisbach equation is used for head loss associated with incompressible flow in pipe to calculate the head loss per unit length of pipe.Ahf = f/D(Vpipe) 2/2gAL Where, A hf = head loss for a straight pipe, ft. water, AL = total pipe length = 13 ft.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 34 of 77 Vpipe = local water velocity in the pipe, ft/sec = 2.562 ft/s f = friction factor, dimensionless D = internal diameter of the pipe = 17.50 in = 1.458 ft g = gravitational constant = 32.2 ft/sec 2.The friction factor, f depends on the Reynolds Number (Re), which is dimensionless, and the pipe diameter (D). Any temperature effect is incorporated in v, the water's kinematic viscosity, which is temperature dependent.
Re is then calculated by using the following equation: Re =V D/v Where the value of v = 1.138 ft 2 X 10-5 / s for the evaluated 650 F water. Re is calculated to be 3.282 x 10 5.Utilizing the Moody Diagram results in a conservatively determined friction factor value, f of 0.013.The value of f is then used to calculate head loss for water flow through the total 13 foot length of straight pipe.HLstr pipe= (0.013/1.458)
(2.5622) / (2 x 32.2) x 13= 0.0118 feet of water Increasing this value by 10% for conservatism results in a total straight pipe head loss, HLstr pipe, of 0.0130 feet of water.Mitered Elbow The mitered elbows consist of three (3) different miters: 120, 34.30, and 550. Each of these requires consideration for head loss, as detailed in the following sections.For a mitered elbow, the head loss can be calculated utilizing the following generalized equations:

There is a final head loss resulting from the expansion of that flow into a "reservoir" (i.e., sump pit). For this configuration, Kexit = 1.00 and Vpipe= 2.562 ft/s.HLexit = Kexit x Vpipe 2 / 2g= 0.102 feet of water.Increasing this value by 10% for conservatism results in a HLexit of 0.112 feet of water.The table below summarizes the bounding values of head loss discussed head losses are in feet of water.above.

The flume layout was configured for Kewaunee's test to include varying widths from 8.375 to 14.25 inches. Water depth was 40.5 inches.Flume length was 45 feet. A CFD analysis was performed by ARL to determine the test flume wall design. A debris interceptor was placed across the width of the flume, upstream of the strainer.
The debris interceptor was a replica of the plant design, a steel C8x1 8.75 channel. The debris interceptor was mounted on 3/8 inch steel plate to model installation in the Containment.
Debris introduced into the flume included all debris types, fibrous, particulate and chemical debris. Head loss tests were performed at the design basis flow rate of 1920 gpm (1870 gpm flow through the strainer, plus 50 gpm additional for conservatism).
Scaling Factor (F.19.c.x)
A full size strainer module from Kewaunee's inventory was used for the tests. The strainer module has a surface area of 54.8 ft2. The surface area of the strainer installed in the plant is 768.7 ft2. The flume test conditions (flow rate and debris quantities) were scaled down to 7.129% for the test strainer size.54.8 ft2 / 768.7 ft2 plant strainer = 7.129% scale Description of Test Facility (F.19.c.vi)
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 41 of 77 Flume design layout and photographs are included in Enclosure G.The ARL test apparatus consisted of a steel flume measuring 10 ft wide, 5 ft deep and 45 ft long. Inside the steel flume, plywood was used to contour the flume wall to simulate the Containment approach velocities.
The upstream end of the flume was used to introduce the flow into the flume, resulting in a 30.59 ft long test section. The flume was equipped with two flow systems designated as the Strainer Flow Loop and the Heat Recirculation Loop. To reduce the hydrostatic forces on the plywood walls, water was added on both sides of the flume testing section in order to prevent the flume wall from collapsing due to high pressures from the water inside the flume. The flume was filled with city water using a two inch diameter hose and was drained into waste water storage tanks using the elevation head of the flume.The Strainer Flow Loop was constructed from four inch and eight inch diameter schedule 40 PVC piping and contained a 20 HP variable speed centrifugal pump with a-rated capacity of 1500 GPM at 40 ft of head. During testing, flow from the strainer was discharged to the upstream end of the flume through an orifice meter. The loop was designed to provide strainer flow rates from 75 GPM to 210 GPM and measure pressure differentials across the test strainer ranging from 0.02 ft of water to 20 ft of water.The Heat Recirculation Loop was used to heat and maintain the flume water temperature at approximately 120 deg. F, with a variance of approximately 20 deg. F.The loop contained a heat recirculation pump and a 800,000 BTU/hr heat exchanger.
A secondary closed loop system, consisting of a separate pump and a boiler, supplied the heat input for the heat exchanger.
Once the water temperature reached -120 deg. F,.the boiler was shut down and the Heat Recirculation Loop isolated.
Water temperature was maintained during the tests using immersion heaters installed in the upstream end of the test flume.Flow meters used in the testing were calibrated using the weight time method in the ARL meter calibration facility, which is traceable to the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST). Calibration curves for each meter were used in the data recording to calculate flows in gallons per minute. The calibration interval for flow meters was in accordance with ARL's calibration procedures.
An automated data recording system was able to read the output of four differential
'pressure cells to record the flow through the flow meters and the pressure differential across the strainer.
Each cell was calibrated using a NIST traceable dead weight tester.Each cell used during a test was checked against a micro manometer at two deflections before the test was started. The cell calibration interval was in accordance with ARL's calibration procedures.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 42 of 77 Water temperature measuring devices were checked against a NIST traceable temperature device using a controlled temperature bath adjusted to provide temperatures over the range encountered during the strainer study.A 200-lb capacity scale was used for weighing debris in a dry state.All instrument calibration intervals were as stated in ARL's calibration procedures.
Test Conditions (F.19.c.xi)
The test flume volume was 238.1 ft3 (1781 gal) and the piping volume was 30.79 ft3 (230 gal) for a total liquid volume of 268.89 ft3 (2011 gal).The water level for the tests was 40.5 inches (3.375 ft) with 3.25 inch strainer submergence.
This was more conservative than plant conditions:
minimum sump level of 43.44 inches and strainer height of 37.25 inches resulting in 6.19 inch submergence., The flume width was determined by a flume wall calculation performed by ARL. The flume was constructed with varying widths to obtain the average approach velocities to the strainer at distances to the strainer up to 30 ft. This included the increased velocity over the debris interceptor.
Flow through the strainer module in the test flume was 136.9 GPM (0.305 ft3/sec).
This flow rate is equivalent to 1920 GPM through the strainer during the design basis event (1870 GPM, plus 50 GPM added for margin). The velocity through the strainer module was 0.0056 ft/sec.Debris Preparation (F.19.c.iii)
The following table displays the test materials, surrogates and how they were processed for the tests.Note: As indicated in Attachment 1, following removal of the fibrous insulation on the pressurizer surge line pipe whip restraints and the Service Water piping in RCS Loop B Vaults, the remaining debris inventory applicable to the tested materials are: Thermobestos, Okotherm cable insulation, latent debris, coatings and chemical debris (see Attachment 1, Table B-3). However, all materials tested are included in this table for completeness.

Actual debris materials were used where possible.
A description of the surrogate materials used is documented in SFSS-TD-2007-004, Sure-Flow Suction Strainer -Testing Debris Preparation
& Surrogates, Rev. 0. This document was submitted previously by PCI to NRC in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 (note it is marked Proprietary and Confidential).
Surrogate debris was density-corrected.
Weight conversions were applied to the surrogates (e.g., Ibs/ft3).
The debris quantities were then scaled to the test volume.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 44 of 77 Tin Powder PCI's review of tin powder found it to be stable, not easily oxidized in air, resistant to corrosion and incompatibilities (i.e., halogens, halogen trifluorides, nitric acid, sodium peroxide, sulfur, copper nitrate, hydrochloric acid, tin chloride, sodium peroxide, and potassium peroxide), slow reacting when heated in air, and have no reaction with cold water or when heated in steam, have very slow reaction with dilute hydrochloric acid, and have very slow reaction with diluted sulfuric acid.Owens-Corning Fiberglass pipe insulation (pipe cover) with an original manufactured density of 3.5 -5.5 lb/ft3 was used as the surrogate material for fiberglass since it has a higher density than other types of fiberglass.
Latent Fiber Latent fiber debris exists primarily in the form of Fines from unknown sources, but may include fiberglass insulation, fiberglass cloth, fibrous cloth, and protective clothing, among other similar type materials.
Although Kewaunee does not have NUKONR insulation in Containment, NUKON insulation was used as the surrogate material for latent fiber since it has similar debris characteristics.
NUREG/CR-6877 indicates that NUKONfibers are comparable to plant latent fiber samples.Calcium Silicate Powder IIGThermo-12 calcium silicate insulation was procured by PCI from the manufacturer.
The product is standard thermal insulation calcium silicate block material that meets ASTM C533-95 and has a density of 14.5 lb/ft3. The product was purchased directly from the manufacturer in a pulverized form.Acrylic Chips Coating debris specified as chips was formed from Carboline Carboguard 890 dry film coating. Chips used in Kewaunee testing were sized between 1/64" and 1/4".Sodium Aluminum Silicate Kewaunee's chemical precipitate formed in the sump pool is sodium aluminum silicate (NaAlSi308).
Because NaAlSi308 is considered a hazardous material, aluminum oxyhydroxide (AIOOH) was used in lieu of NaAlSi308 for the tests. This surrogate is acceptable as indicated in Section 7.3.2 of WCAP-16530-NP Rev. 0. The chemical precipitates were generated using the methodology in WCAP-16530-NP and the final Safety Evaluation Report, WCAP-16785-NP, and PWROG letter OG-07-270.
The DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 45 of 77 chemical materials were generated in mixing tanks and introduced into the test flume within the parameters provided in the PWROG letter OG-07-270.

Prior to conducting the strainer debris head loss tests, a clean strainer head loss (CSHL) test was conducted.
Upon obtaining the CSHL test data, the test continued to perform a transport test of select miscellaneous debris materials.
The materials that were found not to transport were not placed in the test flume during the debris bed head loss tests to avoid it capturing other debris, such as fibrous debris, and prevent its movement toward the strainer.
The CSHL and transport test procedure steps were as follows: CSHL and Debris Transport Tests 1) Verify flume and piping have been cleaned and free of residual debris 2) Fill flume to designated water level and heat to 120 OF" document water level* manually verify strainer submergence depth" record water level and strainer submergence

The duration of Test 3 was just over 30 hours. The test was repeated a second time at design basis conditions with additional debris added to the flume for debris inventory margin (labeled "Test 9"). Test 9's duration was also -30 hours.Debris Bed Strainer Head Loss Tests 1) Verify flume and piping have been cleaned and free of residual debris 2) Prepare debris (see 19.c.iii)" non-chemical debris is weighed dry" separate non-chemical debris by type and size into individual batches" combine each batch with hot water (120 IF)" fine fibrous debris: o mix with 3 parts water to 1 part fibrous (by volume)o fill 5 gal. bucket w/3 gal. hot water o place 1 gal of pre-mixed fine fiber into 5 gal. bucket o remix 5 gal. bucket with paddle mixer or similar o repeat until all fine fibrous is diluted 3) Fill flume to designated water level and heat to 120 OF* document water level 0 manually.

These 20% additions continue until the full amount of chemical is added.* The chemical debris storage tanks and lines are rinsed and flushed to ensure the total chemical debris is added in the flume.17) Terminate the test when the change in head loss is less than 1% in the last 30 minute time interval, and a minimum of 15 flume turnovers occurred after all the tested debris is inserted into the test flume.Debris Introduction Techniques (F.119.c.vii)
Latent Debris (initial flume introduction) (F.19.c.ii) 25% of the latent fibrous debris, represented using fine Nukon fibers, was added to the test flume prior to starting the recirculation pump. This debris was evenly distributed throughout the length of the test flume by pouring from its mixing container.
Prior to placement in the flume, the latent fibers (Fines) were mixed in hot 120 deg F water, three parts water to one part fibrous debris by volume. The container was then rinsed DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 48 of 77 with tap water and emptied into the flume to ensure all debris entered the flume. After a hold time of five minutes, the flume recirculation pump was started.RAI F.19.c.ii, and a follow up teleconference with NRC staff on September 15, 2009, questioned whether adding 25% latent fiber prior to starting the pump would allow the fiber to settle and limit its transport to the strainer.
RAI F.19.c.ii is no longer applicable since the new debris inventory described in Attachment 1 to this letter specifies a new maximum allowable latent debris quantity that is bounded by the quantity of latent debris added to the test flume after the recirculation pump was started. No other debris was placed in the flume prior to starting the recirculation pump, or at a reduced flow rate.Other Non-Chemical Debris (F.19.c.xv)
Non-chemical debris was retained in separate containers, segregating the debris by both type and size. 120 deg F water was added to each container to aid in removing trapped air bubbles. The debris was mixed using a mechanical paddle mixer or similar:'This debris was introduced into the flume in accordance with the procedure direction through the "drop zone", approximately 29 ft upstream of the leading edge of the strainer module. The containers were rinsed with tap water and emptied into the flume to ensure all debris entered the flume.Agglomeration of the debris was prevented by preparing and maintaining the debris by size and type in separate containers until addition to the flume (see F.19.c.iii).
The debris addition was sequenced with time between debris additions to prevent agglomeration.
There was one full pool turnover between adding fine debris and small debris, and again between adding small debris and beginning chemical debris addition.See also available photos of the debris preparation (Enclosure B for Questions 5/6/7/12)and debris addition (Enclosure H).Chemical Debris The base chemical concentration for Kewaunee "Test 3" (design basis debris load) was 12.51 Ibm sodium aluminum silicate (NaAlSi308) (AIOOH surrogate).
Using a 7.129%scaling factor, 0.93 Ibm at 11 grams/liter was placed in the test flume.When directed by procedure, the chemical debris was introduced as follows: 51 batches were inserted incrementally over 24 hours* 33% of base chemical concentration was added in increments.
pH of the flume water was measured and recorded when approximately 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of this debris was added. Head loss was then monitored for at least two pool turnovers.
* The process was repeated for the next two batches (66%, 99%).DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 49 of 77* At this point, the flume volume concentration was essentially met." An additional 20% of the base chemical concentration was added to the flume to compensate for chemical debris that may have settled or captured in the debris bed to ensure the flume volume chemical concentration was maintained.
These 20% additions continued until the full amount of chemical was added." The chemical debris storage tanks and lines were rinsed and flushed to ensure the total chemical debris was added in the flume.The strainer debris bed head loss test was repeated "Test 9" (design basis debris load with additional debris for margin) and 200% chemical addition was used for this test.Therefore, the chemical concentration was 25.02 Ibm sodium aluminum silicate (NaAlSi308) (AIOOH surrogate).
Using a 7.129% scaling factor, 1.86 Ibm at 11 grams/liter was placed in the test flume using the same chemical debris introduction sequence listed above.Chemical concentration worksheets for Test 3 and Test 9 are included as Enclosure J.Quantity of Debris Added to the Test Flume (F.19.c.ix)

-see F.19.c.v and F.19.c.i above Location of Debris Addition wrt Other Equipment With the exception of 25% of the latent Fines addressed in F.19.c.ii, the debris was introduced into the flume through the "drop zone", approximately 29 ft upstream of the leading edge of the strainer module. A debris interceptor (C8x1 8.75 channel) was present in the flume, 1.4 ft upstream of the leading edge of the strainer.
There were no other equipment in the flume.Thin Bed of Fiber (F.19.c.viii)
Kewaunee did not perform a thin bed test in the large scale flume in 2008. Instead, the large scale flume tests were used to determine the actual debris transport and strainer head loss at the design basis flow rate. A thin bed of fiber did not form during these tests.In 2007, fiber transport tests were performed in the 20' 11" x 27" ARL flume. A debris interceptor was modeled in the flume and the flow rate was equal to the maximum flow rate over the debris interceptors as determined by a CFD. In this test, a thin bed of fiber did not form on the strainer.In 2006, a thin bed flume test was performed in the 20' 11" x 27" ARL flume by placing enough Nukon Fines into the flume until a 1/8" bed of fiber was formed on the strainer.The pump flow rate was equivalent to 4000 GPM, more than two times the design basis flow rate through the strainer.
All particulate debris was placed in the flume. Chemical debris was inserted, equivalent to 665 mg/L NaAlSi308, in powder form. Measured head loss was 2.3 ft of water (temperature corrected to 65 deg F). Total head loss was 2.3 ft + 1.45 CSHL = 3.75 ft, which remained significantly below the 10 ft allowable head loss.Results (F.19.c.xiv)
The results of the clean strainer losses plus strainer debris losses remained well below the 10 ft of water allowable total head loss. See response to Questions 19.b and 23 for the quantitative results.The CSHL test plots (raw data, prior to temperature correction) are included in Enclosure I-1.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 51 of 77 The miscellaneous debris items placed in the test flume to document their transport (labels, etc.), were all found to settle in the flume between 4 ft and 14 ft past the drop zone and therefore, was excluded from the strainer debris bed head loss tests. The strainer debris bed head loss tests included fibrous, particulate and chemical debris.* The test plot for "Test 3", with the design basis debris load, is included in Enclosure 1-2." The test plot for "Test 9", with additional debris load for added margin, is included in Enclosure 1-3.Similar to the CSHL plot, the Test 3 and Test 9 plots depict raw test data (without temperature correction).
Upon draining the test flume, it was observed that nearly all debris, with the exception of chemical debris and suspended fibers, settled in the test flume, well upstream of the debris interceptor.
Small and Fine TempMat debris was found near the drop zone, other fibrous debris was found a few feet beyond the drop zone, and some Fine fiber was found on the upstream side of the debris interceptor.
See photos in Enclosure 1-4.NRC Question 20 Please provide a vortexing evaluation including test conditions, assumptions, and their basis. Include any additional vortexing evaluation that was conducted not based on test observations.
Response During the large scale flume tests conducted in August 2008, the flume test procedure specified observing the strainer on regular intervals during the test for signs of vortexing (see response to F.19.c.v.).
No vortices were observed during the debris bed head loss tests.Additionally, PCI performed a vortex evaluation for the Kewaunee strainer design. The evaluation is included as Enclosure K. The largest opening for water to enter the recirculation sump pit where the RHR pumps take suction is 0.066 inch diameter holes in the strainer assembly.
The size of the perforated plate holes will preclude formation of a vortex. The strainer module internal design includes wire stiffeners with small openings inside the strainer that directs flow to the core tube and ultimately the sump pit. These obstructions and small clearances will also prevent a vortex formation.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 52 of 77 NRC Questions 21 & 22 Please provide the conditions assumed for the voiding evaluation and their bases.Please include an evaluation for the potential of degasification of the sump fluid as it passes through the debris bed.Provide the conditions assumed for the evaluation of flashing in the strainer and their bases. Please provide the margin to flashing for each condition considered.
Response Void formation is the result of the pressure of a fluid being reduced below the saturation pressure with the resulting voids being formed by the flashing of the liquid phase. Air does not need to be present to create significant voiding.Evaluation TDI-6008-07, Revision 6 (Enclosure K), includes an evaluation for air ingestion.
Air ingestion is evaluated and results in a Froude Number for the Kewaunee strainer that is substantially less than the guidance stated in Regulatory Guide 1.82, Revision 3. Air ingestion is not expected to occur in Kewaunee's strainer due to having a low Froude Number, a lack of an air entrainment mechanism (no vortex formation), and complete strainer submergence.
TDI-6008-07, Revision 6 (Enclosure K) also evaluates for void formation.
The evaluation uses a conventional hydraulic and fluid flow calculation and concludes 0%void fraction in the strainer discharge flow.TDI-6008-07, Revision 6 (Enclosure K) also evaluates for flashing at the strainer debris bed and gas evolution (deaeration) downstream of the strainer.
The evaluation concludes any void fraction that could occur at the strainer debris bed would be very minimal and the voids caused by flashing at the strainer will have collapsed before they enter the recirculation pump inlet lines. It also concludes that due to the significant elevation difference between the sump outlet and recirculation pump inlet, re-initiating void fraction downstream of the sump outlet is not possible.NRC Question 23 Please provide head loss plots for the testing including annotations of relevant steps in the tests.Response Head loss plots are included as Enclosures 1-1, 1-2 and 1-3. The test plots provide the raw test data prior to temperature correction.
See response to Question 19.b for a tabulation of the strainer losses.a Enclosure I-1 provides the clean strainer head loss test plot.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 53 of 77" Enclosure 1-2 provides the strainer debris bed head loss test plot at the design basis flow rate and with the design basis debris load.* Enclosure 1-3 provides the strainer debris bed head loss test plot at the design basis flow rate and with the design basis debris load supplemented by revising the chemical debris load to 200% the design basis value, and with additional insulation and latent debris for additional debris load margin.For all cases, the more conservative temperature-corrected strainer head loss (clean strainer and debris bed losses combined) remained significantly below the allowable 10 ft of water loss.NRC Question 24 Please provide information on whether the strainer is vented.Response The recirculation strainer is self-venting by design. The strainer is located on the Containment basement floor elevation.
The strainer empties into the sump pit where the RHR pumps take suction. The Containment basement will flood during the LOCA event and the sump pit begins to fill when the Containment basement water elevation reaches 9.5 inches above the basement floor elevation, when water begins to enter the strainer's inner core tube and empty into the sump pit. The strainer core tube has a slotted design around its circumference that allows air to escape out the upper half of the core tube and strainer as the pit and strainer exit piping fills. The strainer is fully submerged prior to the RHR pump being started in the recirculation mode.NRC Question 25 Please provide the head loss test termination criteria.
Include test data that verifies the criteria were met.Response The PCI test protocol specified terminating the test when the change in head loss was less than 1% in the last 30 minute time interval, and a minimum of 15 flume turnovers occurred after all the tested debris has been inserted into the test flume. In both strainer head loss tests (Test 3 w/design basis debris load, Test 9 w/additional debris load -see F.19.c), the maximum measured strainer head loss occurred at or just after 28 hours of flume operation.
The test termination criteria was met approximately two hours later in each occurrence and the strainer head loss was decreasing (see Test 3 and Test 9 plots in Enclosures 1-2 and 1-3).DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 54 of 77 NRC Question 26 Please provide any extrapolation of head loss test results to the plant strainer mission time and the methodology used. Please provide adequate data that the staff can verify that the extrapolation was performed conservatively.
Response At 26 hours and 49 minutes after the start of the Design Basis Test (Test 3), the last chemical debris batch was inserted into the flume. The test continued for another three hours and 49 minutes (from 26:49 to 30:38). After inserting the final chemical batch, the head loss climbed slightly as expected, then leveled off and began to slowly decrease over the last three hours of the test. With the full debris load in the recirculation sump and head loss continually decreasing, an extrapolated decrease in head loss was not calculated.
The design basis test with additional debris load (Test 9) had similar behavior.
Test 3 and Test 9 plots are included as Enclosures 1-2 and 1-3.NRC Question 27 Please provide a schematic representation of the test flume that includes relevant measurements and articles within the flume.Response Kewaunee's large scale flume arrangement is shown in Enclosure G. Debris introduction occurred 29 ft upstream of the leading edge of the strainer module. A debris interceptor, C8x1 8.75 channel, was mounted 3/8 inch off the flume floor to replicate Containment conditions, and was placed 1.396 ft upstream of the strainer.NRC Question 28 Please state whether any debris interceptors were included in the head loss testing. If debris interceptors were included in the testing, please provide details of how the debris interceptors are installed in the plant and how the interceptors were installed in the test flume. Please provide adequate details so that the staff can evaluate the prototypicality of the test setup against the plant.Response See response to Question F.27 for the flume design, including placement of the debris interceptors in the flume. See Enclosure D for a pictorial layout of the debris interceptors as they are installed in the Containment basement (sump).The debris interceptors installed in the plant are constructed from C8x1 8.75 channel and are mounted on 3/8 inch steel plate. The same material and mounting was used in the flume design.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 55 of 77 The flume wall calculation evaluated the placement of the debris interceptor in the flume and determined the flume wall width necessary to achieve the desired flow velocity, 0.138 ft/sec, over the debris interceptor.
Considering the debris interceptor placement in the flume 1.396 ft upstream of the strainer module, and an effective water height above the debris interceptor equal to 2.677 ft, a required flume width of 0.829 ft at the debris interceptor was determined.
Therefore, the flume wall width contracted slightly at the debris interceptor placement to achieve the desired flow velocity at that location.The flow rate over the flume debris interceptor, 0.138 ft/sec, is the weighted average flow velocity over the three debris interceptors installed in the plant. However, the CFD flow patterns indicate the majority of the flow towards the strainer approaches the strainer from the south, over the south debris interceptor.
The average flow velocity over the south debris interceptor is 0.111 ft/sec, therefore, the flume design is conservative.
See also response to Question 15.G. Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH)NRC Question 29 The basis for the stated design flow rates for the residual heat removal (RHR) pumps was not provided.
Please provide the methodology and assumptions for the calculation of these flow rates.Response One RHR pump operates in the recirculation mode, resulting in flow through the recirculation strainer at 1870 GPM and flow through the pump at 1990 GPM (includes pump recirculation flow). 1920 GPM flow through the strainer (1870 GPM, plus 50 GPM margin) was specified as the flow rate for the large scale flume tests.Fluid flow analysis program PROTO-FLO, Version 4.5, was used to model the recirculation system and determine these flow rates. The maximum flow through the recirculation strainer was determined conservatively assuming the RHR pump discharge throttle valve (RHR-8A/B) is failed in the full open position.
A high sump level of 6 ft is used in the analysis to provide a conservative high flow rate. The Containment temperature is assumed to be 210 deg. F and Containment pressure at 35 psia.Pressure drop through the sump strainer is assumed to be negligible to result in a higher RHR flow rate. The RHR pump is assumed to be operating on the vendor's shop test (certified) pump curve, rather than in a degraded condition.
The reactor vessel/RCS pressure is assumed to be the same as the Containment pressure to maximize RHR flow. An additional 10% conservatism (uncertainty) is applied to the calculated flow rate. As indicated in our December 18, 2008 response, the resultant flow rate through the recirculation strainer with one RHR pump taking suction from the sump is 1870 GPM. The flow through the RHR pump was conservatively calculated as DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 56 of 77 1990 GPM, which includes flow through the strainer plus pump recirculation flow. The flow rate through the strainer, 1870 GPM, was conservatively increased to 1920 GPM for conducting the 2008 large scale flume tests.NRC Question 30 The basis for the NPSH required for the RHR pumps at the design flow rate was not provided.
Please provide the basis for the RHR pump NPSH required, including any assumptions or acceptance criteria used by the pump vendor.Response Kewaunee's RHR pumps are Byron Jackson, Type 6 x 10 x 18 Vertical V-DSM.NPSH required (NPSHR) is 8 ft of water at 2000 GPM. This was determined from the original manufacturer pump curves, Byron Jackson Tests T-32129 and T-32130. The vendor pump tests were performed at 1770 RPM and 2000 GPM. Total developed head was 280 ft of water at 80% pump efficiency.
2000 GPM exceeds the design basis flow rates through the RHR pumps. The design basis flow through the RHR pumps is 1990 GPM when supplying the reactor vessel in the Containment sump recirculation mode (see response to Question 29). One RHR pump operates in the recirculation mode in response to the design basis event.NPSH margin based on most recent tests and calculations is as follows: PARAMETER HEAD COMMENT (FT)NPSH Available 24.108 Total water height at the onset of recirculation, minus piping friction losses [26.224 -2.116]Maximum measured 3.28 Includes clean strainer head loss, debris laden strainer strainer discharge piping losses and head loss debris bed losses combined (Notes 1, 2)NPSH Required 8 At design flow rate 2000 GPM NPSH Margin 12.828 Note 1: The ECCS recirculation strainer design is limited to 10 ft head loss at 4000 GPM, unless the structural integrity of the strainer is analyzed to exceed that value.Note 2: The maximum measured head loss through testing is 3.28 ft of water (see response to Question 19.b).DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 57 of 77 NRC Question 31 The methodology for the calculation of suction line friction head losses for the NPSH calculations was not provided.
Please provide the NPSH calculation methodology along with the calculation's assumptions and the bases for these assumptions.
Response Piping friction losses were calculated using the Darcy-Weisbach formula. The losses were calculated for the RHR pump suction line from Containment to the pump suction.The suction piping includes the inlet pipe bell, suction piping, Containment isolation valves, and pipe fittings.In the calculation, the sump water temperature is assumed to be 700 F. Although the sump water temperature would be much greater than 700 F when the RHR suction supply is switched over from the RWST to the Containment sump, using a lower fluid temperature resulted in greater piping head losses due to friction in the suction piping.This assumption is conservative in that it results in lower NPSH available (NPSHA) at the RHR pumps because of the higher calculated friction losses.The friction losses were calculated with an assumed flow rate 2000 gpm, which is the design flow point for the RHR pump. This assumption is conservative as the maximum flow through the suction piping is less than 2000 gpm (see response to Question 33).The relative roughness of the suction piping is assumed to be consistent with new clean commercial steel pipe. The RHR system piping is stainless steel which is not readily susceptible to corrosion.
The following equation expresses the frictional losses term (hfs): hfs = hstrainer
+ 2'hpipe Where, hstrainer
= head loss across the strainer (in feet)Jhpipe = sum of friction losses through piping, valves, and fittings at rated flow (in feet)The general equation for frictional losses through a pipe (pressure drop), known as Darcy's formula and expressed in feet of liquid, is: h LV 2 D 2.g DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 58 of 77 Where, f = friction factor L = equivalent length of pipe (in feet)V = mean velocity (in feet per second)D = internal diameter of pipe (in feet)g = acceleration of gravity = 32.2 feet/sec 2 The friction factor (f) is a function of Reynold's Number (Re) and the character of the pipe wall (relative roughness).
Reynold's Number is defined as (dimensionless):
Re -g Where, p=62.3--b
@ 70 deg. F V = velocity of fluid (feet/sec)
D = inside pipe diameter (feet)=20.10-5 Ibfsec @ 70 deg. F ft 2 g = acceleration of gravity = 32.2 feet/sec 2 The relative roughness of the pipe is defined in Crane Technical Paper 410 as: Relative Roughness
= F- / D Where, F= 0.00015 ft [for commercial steel pipe]D = inside pipe diameter (feet)When Reynold's number and relative roughness are known, the friction factor (f) is read from the Moody chart published on page A-25 of Crane Technical Paper 410.The RHR pump suction piping from the Containment sump is segregated into three sections for the purposes of calculating friction losses. Those sections are:* from the suction pipe end bell in the sump pit to the first isolation valve (14 inch diameter; called RUN 1)DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 59 of 77" from the first isolation valve through the second isolation valve to a reducer (12 inch diameter; called RUN 2)" the pipe from the second isolation valve to the RHR pump suction (10 inch diameter;called RUN 3)The results of the calculated friction losses for RUN 1 are as follows: RUN 1.D 1 s Rei s , )g S Ibf ft 3 62.3 -.4.465 .1.1042ft ftl sec 0.9576ft 2 2.05.10-5 Ibf. sec ft2 Reis = ft 32.2-sec 2 Res = 4.86x10 5 Relative Roughness

Please provide any differences in conditions for the small- and large-break loss of coolant accident cases or demonstrate one case to be limiting.Response (See response to Question 33 regarding recirculation flow paths and RHR pump flow rates.)The NPSH evaluation for the RHR pumps operating in the recirculation mode is prepared for the bounding large break LOCA (LBLOCA) case.Recirculation is assumed to be initiated at the 37% RWST level (tank 63% depleted).
This is the soonest recirculation can be initiated and is based on having two ECCS trains available.
The 37% RWST level switchover to recirculation results in the lowest (most conservative)
Containment sump water level. Additional details are provided below.NPSH required is based on the RHR pump design flow rate of 2000 gpm. This is a conservatively high flow rate for either the LBLOCA or small break LOCA (SBLOCA)case. See response to Questions 29 and 33.Containment atmospheric pressure is assumed to be equal to the vapor pressure of the sump water. This assumption is conservative in that it does not credit Containment pressurization to assist in the available NPSH to the RHR pumps during a transient and bounds both the SBLOCA and LBLOCA cases.The head loss across the debris laden recirculation strainer is assumed to be at the maximum allowable 10 feet of water and bounds both the SBLOCA and LBLOCA cases.Sump Level The minimum Containment water level at the start of recirculation is an input in determining the NPSH margin for the RHR pumps in the recirculation mode.Kewaunee's minimum recirculation sump water level calculation evaluated two limiting scenarios.
Scenario 1 modeled a two inch or greater pipe break at or below the elevation of the RCS loops. Following the break in Scenario 1, the Containment volume begins to fill with pressurized steam, steam begins to condense on the Containment heat sinks, and a portion of the RCS water inventory spills to the Containment basement floor. The spilled RCS contracts when it reaches the cooler sump. The contraction is equal to the DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 61 of 77 ratio of the two water densities.
The safety injection system takes suction from the RWST and delivers it to the reactor vessel. At the same time, the ICS system takes water from the RWST to provide spray to Containment.
The injected water spills out the break onto the Containment basement floor and begins to fill Containment (waste)Sump A and (recirculation)
Sump B. The sprayed water initially accumulates on the upper Containment floors before cascading down to the Containment basement floor.In Scenario 1 it is conservatively assumed that the safety injection accumulators do not discharge and the water in them is not added to the Containment sump level. This was conservatively assumed because there may be some small break LOCA scenarios where the RCS pressure does not drop below the accumulator pressure.
The accumulators have a nitrogen cover charge and are maintained at approximately 750 psig. The minimum accumulator pressure allowed by plant Technical Specifications is 700 psig and minimum volume is 1225 ft3 (2450 ft3 total for two accumulators).
Scenario 2 modeled the equivalent of a two inch break at the top of the pressurizer.
It is similar to Scenario 1 except that no water from the RCS inventory spills to the Containment floor. Instead, the volume of the pressurizer that is normally filled with steam becomes water solid. The reactor coolant system (RCS) pressure decreases to 700 psia after 1900 seconds, discharging the safety injection accumulators, and stabilizes at 550 psia after 2700 seconds. The water from the accumulators expands when it reaches the hotter, less dense sump water. The expansion is equal to the ratio of the two water densities.
At 550 psia, the RWST injection flow into the RCS equals approx. 533 gpm. The internal containment spray injection flow rate with two trains running is approx. 2780 gpm. With a combined RWST injection flow rate of 3313 gpm, the available water volume in the RWST would deplete in approx. 2880 seconds.Scenario 2 is not the limiting (lowest) sump water level scenario at the onset of recirculation as the accumulators are credited as contributing to the sump level. In the event the accumulators did not fully complete their discharge prior to starting recirculation, the sump water level would still be > 43.44 inches level calculated in Scenario 1, as the accumulators contribute 0.46 inches to the sump level when fully discharged and any quantity discharged results in a higher sump level than calculated in Scenario 1. (The small break LOCA analysis is documented in Kewaunee's Reload Transition Safety Report dated July 2002, and the Updated Safety Analysis Report, Section 14.3.)In both scenarios, after Sump A and Sump B RHR pump suction pit (below the basement floor elevation) are filled, the water level above the Containment basement elevation begins to rise. When the water level reaches 2' 5" above the floor elevation, water spills into the inactive Sump C, below the reactor vessel. As Sump C fills, there is no change in the Containment basement sump water level until Sump C water level reaches the level in the basement.
Then the water level in the Containment basement F (Sump B) and Sump C (below the reactor vessel) rises in response to additional water supplied from the RWST.When the RWST is depleted to the switchover setpoint of 37% RWST level, the transfer to Containment sump recirculation begins. There is a delay before recirculation begins DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 62 of 77 due to operator response time required to perform the manual switchover actions.During the switchover procedure, one ICS pump and one injection pump are shut down.The operating pumps continue to deplete the RWST lower than 37% during the switchover to recirculation.
Hold up volumes were applied to both scenarios and are addressed in response to Question 34.At the start of recirculation, the minimum sump water level for each scenario is as follows: SCENARIO MIN. SUMP LEVEL STRAINER WATER LEVEL ABOVE BASEMENT HEIGHT (IN.) ABOVE STRAINER FLOOR ELEV. (IN.) (IN.)Scenario 1 43.44 37.25 6.19 Scenario 2 43.9 37.25 6.65 Debris Generation SBLOCA vs. LBLOCA It is recognized that the Containment sump water level will be different for the scenarios mentioned above. It is also recognized that the amount of debris generated for the scenarios will be different, i.e., a LBLOCA will generate more debris (have a larger ZOI)than a smaller diameter pipe break. However, KPS analyses were prepared assuming the maximum debris generation (RCS Loop B hot leg break) and the minimum sump water level (which corresponds to a break of any size two inches or greater at or below the elevation of the RCS loops).SBLOCA Emergency Operating Procedures specify performing a RCS cool down as fast as possible (but less than 100 deg F/hr) following a LOCA. Therefore, in response to a SBLOCA, it is quite feasible that the RCS could be cooled and depressurized during the RWST injection phase of the accident and Containment sump recirculation may not be required.NRC Question 33 Please discuss the potential for differences between hot-leg and cold-leg injection flow rates and NPSH margins. Alternatively, please demonstrate that the evaluated case is limiting or that other cases are not required at Kewaunee.DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025, Attachment 2 Page 63 of 77 Response See response to Question 32 for the evaluated LOCA events for determining the minimum Containment sump water level which is an input to the NPSH margin evaluation.
In response to a large break LOCA with a depressurized RCS, the RHR pumps will feed the reactor core via the upper plenum (reactor vessel) injection line. In the recirculation mode, design basis flow through the RHR pump for this scenario is calculated as 1990 GPM, therefore, the NPSH required (NPSHR) 8 ft of water at 2000 GPM used in the NPSH evaluation is bounding. (Design basis flow through the recirculation strainer is calculated as 1870 GPM. Flow through the RHR pump includes pump recirculation flow. Pump recirculation discharges to the pump suction, downstream of the strainer.)
In response to a LOCA with the RCS greater than 150 psig, the Safety Injection pumps will feed the RCS via cold leg injection.
The maximum Safety Injection flow to the core when piggybacked on a RHR pump is approximately 1265 GPM. This value, plus approximately 115 GPM RHR pump recirculation flow remains significantly below the NPSHR 8 ft of water at 2000 GPM used in the evaluation.
Kewaunee's emergency operating procedures do not specify use of hot leg injection.
In the NPSH margin evaluation, the Containment atmospheric pressure is assumed to be equal to the vapor pressure of the sump water. This assumption is conservative in that it does not credit Containment pressurization to assist in the available NPSH.to the RHR pumps during a transient.
The Containment sump water elevation is assumed to be 595.62 feet (43.44 inches of water above the Containment basement floor). This is the calculated minimum Containment sump water elevation at the start of recirculation.
The RHR pump suction elevation is 569.396 feet, resulting in a difference of 26.224 feet. RHR pump suction friction losses are calculated as 2.116 feet of water, resulting in 24.108 feet of head available.
The head loss across the debris laden recirculation strainer is assumed to be at the maximum allowable 10 feet of water.The NPSH margin for operating the RHR pump in the Containment sump recirculation mode with the assumed maximum allowable strainer losses was reported in our December 18, 2008 response and is reiterated below: DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 64 of 77 PARAMETER HEADCOMMENT (FT OF WATER)Total water height at the onset NPSH Available 24.108 of recirculation, minus piping friction losses Includes clean strainer head Maximum allowable debris 10losadebibdhados laden strainer head loss (Note 1) combined At design flow rate 2000 NPSH required 8 gmpm gpm/pump NPSH margin 6.108 Note 1: See also table in response to Question 30.NRC Question 34 Please identify the water sources and hold up volumes considered in the minimum water level calculation and provide quantitative values for each hold up volume for the limiting water level for the small- and large-break loss of coolant accident cases.Response Question 32 above describes the scenarios analyzed for determining the minimum recirculation sump water level, including description of the water sources.The following table displays the hold up volumes that are included in the minimum recirculation sump water level calculation.
All hold up volumes listed below were applied to both evaluated scenarios.

It fills and remains 112.6 filled during the LOCA response scenario.Sump B recirculation pit. The pit is below the 592' Containment basement floor (sump) elevation.
The RHR pumps take suction from the Sump B recirculation pit. Although not a true hold up volume because this water is part of the recirculation sump, the sump is assumed to be empty at the start of the LOCA event. It fills with water 464.2 as Sump B (basement level) fills. Included in this volume is the initial fill of the RHR suction piping up to the second isolation valve (SI-351A/B).DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 65 of 77 VOLUME DESCRIPTION OF HOLD UP VOLUME CU.F (CU. FT.)Containment Sump C. This sump is located under the reactor vessel.Assuming the LOCA event does not occur at a reactor vessel nozzle (which is not a limiting break for debris generation), the sump will remain empty until the water level in the Containment basement floor reaches elevation 594'-5" or 2'-5" above the Containment basement elevation.
At that time, Sump C begins to fill via the opening in the sump manway hatch. After sump C is filled to elevation 594'-5", the water level in Containment and sump C will continue to rise in 3,500 response to additional water supplied from the RWST. The volume of this sump at the point where the water level reaches the opening into Sump C is 3,764 cu. ft., less the volume of the flooded portion of the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel. At this point the hold up volume is approximately 3,500 cu. ft.Hold up in the lowest elevation of refueling cavity due to the presence of a standpipe in the floor drain. 74.2 RWST volume to fill the normally empty portion of Internal 233 Containment Spray (ICS) piping and the ring header.The volume of water from Containment Spray water droplets falling that have not reached the Containment sump. 41.1 Water held up at upper elevations of Containment on horizontal surfaces due to Containment Spray or condensation drainage.

If this configuration is allowed, quantify its impact on the pumps' NPSH margin. Please provide similar information regarding the operation of the internal Containment Spray system in recirculation mode.Response The emergency operating procedures specify running one RHR pump in the recirculation mode in response to the design basis LOCA event.The emergency operating procedures allow starting a second RHR pump in the recirculation mode to provide recirculation spray in response to a beyond-design basis DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 66 of 77 event (increasing containment pressure and less than two fan coil units operating).
The beyond-design-basis event is not addressed in this response.H. Structural analysis NRC Question 36 In accordance with the first portion of Section 3.k of the Revised Content Guide for Generic Letter 2004-02 Supplemental Responses, licensees were requested to provide the design code of record used in the structural qualification of their replacement strainer components.
The licensee did not provide this information in the supplemental responses.
Please provide the applicable code(s) of record for the qualification of the strainer modules, piping, piping supports, Sump B pit cover, Sump B pit maintenance hatch strainer, and any other applicable components.
Response The strainer modules are mounted to the Containment basement floor elevation.
The discharge of the strainer is piped to the recirculation sump pit where the residual heat removal pumps take suction. Adjacent to the piping sump pit entrance, a maintenance hatch strainer is positioned on the top of the sump pit. The maintenance hatch strainer is not credited in the design basis accident strainer surface area.The strainer modules and maintenance hatch strainer, including the strainer mounting tracks and support channels that span across the sump pit, were evaluated using a combination of manual calculations and finite element analyses using the GTSTRUDL computer program, Version 25, and the ANSYS computer program, Version 5.7.1.The strainer discharge piping and pipe supports, and sump cover plate (pipe entry into Sump B, recirculation sump pit), were evaluated using a combination of manual calculations and computerized analysis using the AutoPIPE Program, Version 8.50.The strainer and related components were designed, fabricated and evaluated to USAS(ANSI)
B31.1, Power Piping, 1967 Edition.NRC Question 37 In accordance with the second portion of Section 3.k of the Revised Content Guide for Generic Letter 2004-02 Supplemental Responses, licensees were requested to provide the design margins for the strainer components which were analyzed for structural adequacy.
Please provide and summarize, in tabular form, the design margins and/or interaction ratios for the strainer components analyzed for resolution of GL2004-02.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 67 of 77 Response The requested information is included as Enclosures L-1 and L-2, with photos of the strainer assembly included to aid the review.Enclosure L-1 is from the structural evaluation of the strainer modules and maintenance hatch strainer, including the strainer mounting tracks and support channels that span across the sump pit.Enclosure L-2 is from the structural evaluation of the strainer discharge piping, pipe supports and sump cover plate (pipe entry into Sump B, recirculation sump pit).The strainer modules and associated components are designed for a maximum allowable head loss of 10 ft of water at 4000 GPM. Head loss less than 10 ft and reduced flow rates (such as the recalculated 1870 GPM design basis flow through the strainer; see response to Questions 33 and 19.c) results in additional structural margin.NRC Question 38 The third portion of item 3.k of the revised content guide for the GL 2004-02 supplemental responses requests that the licensees "Summarize the evaluations performed for dynamic effects such as pipe whip, jet impingement, and missile impacts associated with high-energy line breaks (as applicable)." Please provide a detailed summary along with any additional supporting information regarding the assessment that the strainer modules are not subject to the aforementioned dynamic effects.Response An evaluation was performed to verify that the recirculation strainer and debris interceptors would not be impacted by a LOCA jet. The recirculation strainer is located in the east side of the Containment basement, between 3' 2" feet thick concrete support walls and the outer Containment wall (see Enclosures D and E-2 for pictorials).
There are no postulated pipe breaks between the support walls and the outer Containment wall where the strainer is located. Postulated pipe breaks on the west side of the interior basement walls, west of the strainer, were evaluated and determined not to cause jet impingement or pipe impact on the strainer or debris interceptors.
The nearest lines evaluated included: DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 68 of 77 PIPING PIPE OUTSIDE COMMENTS DIAMETER (IN.)RHR outlet from RCS 8 No impact. A postulated guillotine break Loop B hot leg at valve RHR-1 B would travel parallel to the RHR pipe axis and would not impinge on the debris interceptors (D.I.) or strainer.
A jet from a longitudinal break would impact the inside of the east shield wall but not the D.I. or strainer.Pressurizer surge line 10 No impact. This line is located inside the Loop B vaults and is one floor above the Containment basement (sump) elevation.
Accumulator injection 12 No impact. This line is located within the 1 B (SI-22B to RCS) Loop B RCP vault and is located above the Containment basement (sump)elevation.
Safety Inject to RCS 6 No impact. This line is located within the cold leg (SI-13B to Loop B RCP vault and is located above RCS) the Containment basement (sump)elevation.

A postulated break in the Containment basement elevation would impinge on the RCP B support steel beams.CVC letdown off the 2 No impact. This two inch line is located crossover leg 8' 6" above the 592' floor elevation.
A guillotine break at valve RC-200B would result in a jet parallel to the pipe run and to the inside of the shield wall. A guillotine break at the tee upstream of RC-200B would result in a circular jet approximately 3' 6" radius which would not reach the D.I. or strainer.RTD lines 1, 2 & 3 No impact. These lines are located within the Loop B vaults and are located above the Containment basement (sump)elevation.
Cold leg to pressurizer 2 & 3 No impact. This line is located within the Loop B vaults and is located above the Containment basement (sump) elevation.
Low head safety 4 & 6 No impact. These lines are located one injection (SI-304A(B) to elevation above the Containment sump Rx Vessel) elevation.
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 69 of 77 NRC Question 39 Figure 4 of the licensee's February 2008 supplemental response indicates that three debris interceptors were installed as part of Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc.'s GL 2004-02 resolution efforts. However, these components were not mentioned in Section 3.k of the supplemental response.
Please provide additional information regarding the structural adequacy of these components including a description and summary of the structural analyses that were performed to demonstrate the ability of these components to maintain their structural integrity during a design basis accident.Response The debris interceptors, C8x18.75 channel, were structurally evaluated for consideration of drag and hydrostatic loads, deadweight and seismic loads, including the inertia effects of the hydrodynamic mass during a seismic event. There are no dynamic loads on the debris interceptors from a postulated pipe break (no jet impingement or pipe impact).Water Level for 3" Strainer Submergence (El. 595-4-1/4") ,r Water Flow H El. 592'-o" Debris Interceptor Sump Strainer The debris interceptors were evaluated for a minimum water level of 40.5 inches which bounds the minimum water level at the start of recirculation.
Evaluation with minimum water level provides a more conservative drag load for the evaluation.
The debris interceptors were conservatively evaluated with a sump flow rate of 4000 gpm, however, the actual design basis flow rate through the strainer was subsequently calculated as 1870 gpm.The three design load combinations for the debris interceptors' steel structure are: DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 70 of 77 Condition Load Combination Allowable Normal, DL + LL (Note 1) AISC allowable Operating Basis DL + LL + DBA + OBE AISC allowable Earthquake (OBE) (Note 2)Design Basis Earthquake DL + LL + DBA + DBE 1.5 x AISC allowable but no (DBE) (Note 2) greater than 0.9Fv Notes: 1) By comparison of Normal Condition and OBE, and since each has the same allowable, OBE is the bounding combination and therefore, the Normal Condition was not evaluated.
: 2) Each load combination containing DBA and seismic is divided into two sub-combinations.
One is when the water level reaches the total height of the debris interceptor on the upstream side of the barrier and has no fluid on the downstream side (this condition maximizes hydrostatic head). The other sub-combination is when the fluid level reaches a steady state head of 40.5 inches and the interceptor is completely submerged.
The following is a summary of lateral loads associated with each critical load combination.

Subsequent to the evaluation, C8x18.75 channel was selected based on material availability and the C8x18.75 channel was evaluated and found to be acceptable.
The evaluation included structural adequacy of the channel material, structural posts, welds between the channel and base plate, base plate material, and expansion anchors.I. Upstream Effects NRC Question 40 Please describe the size of the refueling cavity drain line, the minimum flow restriction in this line, and any line losses associated with the drain line. Please also describe the types and quantities of debris that could transport to the refueling cavity, and the basis for concluding that debris blockage or partial blockage will not occur at the cavity drain.The evaluation should account for the potential for some types of debris to remain buoyant following a loss of coolant accident, transport toward the cavity drain due to surface currents, and potentially sink on top of the cavity drain as water gradually displaces the air trapped in the debris material's pores. Please quantify the holdup volume assumed for the refueling cavity in the Containment pool minimum water level calculation.
Response Debris blockage of the refueling cavity drain line was determined to be not credible.The refueling cavity drain is located at the lowest cavity elevation, 608' 0", at the north end of the cavity (see Enclosure M). The drain opening is eight inches in diameter, connected to a four inch diameter drain line. The refueling cavity drain line enters Containment Sump A, below the Containment basement floor (recirculation sump)elevation.
Containment Sump A drains to the Sludge Interceptor Tank in the Auxiliary Building, however, this line is isolated upon a Containment isolation signal.Containment Sump A, when filled, overflows onto the Containment basement floor (recirculation sump).The refueling cavity drain is located directly under the fuel transfer lifting frame. The drain has a removable standpipe that is eight inches in diameter, six inches high and has a 1 inch x 1 inch grid recessed in the standpipe top. Installation of the standpipe is controlled by a plant procedure to ensure the standpipe is in place during plant operation.
The standpipe prevents non-suspended debris in the refueling cavity from entering the drain.The minimum Containment sump water level calculation for the start of recirculation (2006-01660, Rev. 1) credits a hold up volume in the refueling cavity equal to 8.25 inches water height in the lower canal, or 74.2 ft3 (555 gal.). This is the height of water held up by the presence of the standpipe (C10941, Rev. 1). Ultimately, the cavity will DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 72 of 77 drain to 6" water height when Containment Spray is ceased. Containment Spray duration is approximately 55 minutes. Clean water enters the cavity from Containment Spray (injection mode). Kewaunee does not credit the use of recirculation spray for the LOCA event.For the limiting hot leg break in the RCS Loop B Steam Generator Vault, large debris is not postulated to exit the top of the Steam Generator or Reactor Coolant Pump vaults and land directly on top of the refueling cavity drain line standpipe.
o The vertical vault walls will direct uplifted debris vertically into Containment.
o The refueling cavity drain standpipe is located horizontally approximately 57 ft from the break location.
The break location is recessed in the Steam Generator Vault at the 617' 10" elevation.
The top of the Steam Generator Vault walls are at the 666' and 660' elevation.
The operating floor elevation is 649'. The refueling cavity drain is located at 608' elevation.
o There are multiple obstructions between the RCS hot leg piping and the standpipe that would prevent large debris from reaching upper Containment or the refueling cavity standpipe.
These obstructions could also stop or deflect the transport of small debris." Steel grate work platforms surround the Steam Generator at the 624' 1" elevation." Steel handrails and work platforms surround the Steam Generator above the 660' elevation vault wall tops (shown in Enclosure M)." In the adjacent/adjoining Reactor Coolant Pump Vault, steel grate work platforms are located at the 620' 3" and 633' 2" elevations." Many other obstructions are located between the break location and the refueling cavity drain, such as but not limited to, permanent ladders, handrails, equipment, ventilation equipment, structural steel, reactor vessel internals lift rig, the refueling cavity bridge crane and the fuel assembly transfer equipment.
o A piece of debris would need to be at least 8 in. wide and planar, and transportable or land horizontally and directly over the standpipe to block the drain line, and maintain this position as the refueling cavity pool fills. There is no credible scenario for this type of debris, trajectory and behavior during pool fill. r o A crumpled piece of sheet metal, if one were to land in the cavity, would not land directly over the drain opening due to the fuel assembly lifting frame over the drain, would not transport towards the drain due to the DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 73 of 77 weight of the material, and would not seal a drain opening due to its shape.o Any fibrous insulation entering the refueling cavity pool would not land directly over the drain opening due to the fuel assembly lifting frame over the drain, would not be of sufficient size and density to block an eight inch diameter opening, and would not transport to the drain opening due to the high temperature of the pool water and low transport velocity in the pool.** The Containment atmosphere will be at approximately 210 deg F.The sprayed water into the refueling cavity and Containment structures will therefore be hot which will aid in sinking debris and prevent or eliminate air bubbles trapped with the debris. Small fibrous insulation debris that may have entered the refueling cavity would occur in the initial phase of the break blowdown which allows time to settle in the refueling cavity during the time the cavity fills to above the drain standpipe opening. NUREG/CR-6808, Section 5.2.1, states, "Fiberglass insulation readily absorbs water, particularly hot water, and sinks rapidly (...from 20 to 30 seconds in-120&deg;F water)." The revised debris inventory described in Attachment 1 to this letter indicates fibrous debris size will be limited to Fines after the described insulation removal activities are complete.** Floating debris would likely consist of Fines and small debris such as coatings that would pass through the drain opening.*o The transport velocity around the drain, greater than 17 in. from the drain centerline, is calculated to be less than 0.1 fps. Any debris that transports over the cavity ledge to the lower cavity falls into an area where the velocity is less than 0.1 fps. NUREG/CR-6808, Section 5.2.1, states, "Water velocities needed to initiate motion of sunken insulation are on the order of 0.2 ft/s for individual shreds, 0.5 to 0.7 ft/s for individual small pieces (up to 4 in. on a side), and 0.9 to 1.5 ft/s for individual large pieces (up to 2 ft on a side)." Therefore, any debris that may enter the pool other than Fines will not transport down the standpipe drain.In addition to the limiting debris generation RCS hot leg break, other breaks are considered:
o A break in the RCS Loop A piping (hot leg, cold leg, or intermediate leg) would not generate any fibrous insulation debris, with the exception of fibers contained in calcium silicate (Thermobestos) insulation on the steam generator blowdown DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 74 of 77 lines. The fibrous portion of calcium silicate insulation is limited to Fines. There is no TempMat or Okotherm insulation in the RCS Loop A vaults.The refueling cavity drain standpipe is closer in proximity to the "A" Steam Generator Vault, however, similar to the RCS Loop B configuration, between the postulated RCS Loop A piping and the refueling cavity drain there are several steel grating work platforms, structural steel shapes, equipment, piping, ladders and handrails that will deflect, distort and limit the size of reflective metal debris exiting the top of the vault. Additionally, due to the drain pipe location being below the fuel assembly lifting frame, an 8 inch diameter planar piece landing directly on top of the drain pipe is not credible.o A RCS Loop B cold leg or intermediate leg break, similar to the limiting hot leg break, would be at an elevation within the vault below several steel work platform grating elevations.
A cold leg break would not generate any calcium silicate (Thermobestos) debris. The cold leg and intermediate leg are located between the TempMat and Okonite cable insulation materials and the refueling cavity drain, therefore, it is postulated that this debris would likely be blown in the opposite direction from the cavity drain location.o The reactor vessel top head is insulated with reflective metal insulation.
A non-isolable leak or break at this location will not produce large fibrous debris into the refueling cavity.As noted above, 555 gallons of hold up water volume is assumed to exist in the refueling cavity at the initiation of recirculation when the Containment sump water level is at its lowest during the recirculation phase. 555 gallons equates to approximately 0.22 inch sump water level at that time (Containment elevation) during the sump fill. At the onset of recirculation, the minimum sump water level is calculated at 43.44 inches.The strainer height is 37.25 inches, therefore, the sump water level is 6.19 inches above the strainer surface. The strainer is analyzed for a minimum submergence equal to two inches above the top of the strainer.
Therefore, the refueling cavity holdup volume accuracy is not critical to strainer submerge, however, note that blockage of the refueling cavity drain and accumulation of additional holdup at this location is not postulated.
J. Downstream Effectslln-Vessel NRC Question 41 The NRC staff considers in-vessel downstream effects to not be fully addressed at Kewaunee as well as at other pressurized water reactors.
The licensee's submittal refers to draft WCAP-16793-NP, "Evaluation of Long-Term Cooling Considering Particulate, Fibrous, and Chemical Debris in the Recirculating Fluid." The NRC staff has not issued a final safety evaluation (SE) for WCAP 16793-NP.
The licensee may DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 75 of 77 demonstrate that in-vessel downstream effects issues are resolved for Kewaunee by showing that the licensee's plant conditions are bounded by the final WCAP-16793-NP and the corresponding final NRC staff SE, and by addressing the conditions and limitations in the final SE. The licensee may also resolve this item by demonstrating without reference to WCAP-16793 or the staff SE that in-vessel downstream effects have been addressed at Kewaunee.
In any event, the licensee should report how it has addressed the in-vessel downstream effects issue within 90 days of issuance of the final NRC staff SE on WCAP-1 6793.Response Kewaunee will submit a response to this item following the issuance of the SE for WCAP-16793.
The response will be submitted within 90 days of issuance of the final SE on WCAP-1 6793.K. Chemical Effects NRC Question 42 Please identify and justify all plant-specific refinements made to the WCAP-16530-NP base chemical model predictions and indicate how much each refinement reduced the predicted amount of precipitate compared with the October 2006 analysis.
For example, if silicate inhibition was credited, please provide justification.
Please provide any relevant bench-top testing and analysis that support reduction of the Kewaunee-specific chemical precipitate loading. Discuss why the overall plant-specific chemical effects evaluation remains conservative when crediting reductions to the WCAP-1 530-NP base chemical model. Additional information concerning staff expectations for the use of plant-specific refinements to WCAP-16530 is available in Section 9 of the Chemical Effects Review Guidance available at ML080380214.
Response No plant-specific refinements were made to the WCAP-16530-NP base chemical model predictions.
No bench-top testing was performed.
Chemical precipitate loading was not reduced.NRC Question 43 The licensee's February 29, 2008 supplemental response states that the minimum pH range calculation assumes end of cycle, minimum boron concentration.
Likewise, the maximum pH is based on beginning of cycle maximum boron concentration.
The staff would expect the maximum boron concentration to result in the minimum sump pool pH and the minimum boron concentration to result in the maximum sump pool pH. Please explain the basis for the pH calculations with respect to boron concentration at the DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2*Page 76 of 77 beginning and end of cycle. Also, please explain if the volume and concentration of sodium hydroxide is adjusted during the operating cycle.Response The following table was provided in our February 29, 2008 response, as Table 3.0-1 in Section 3.0, Chemical Effects. The text description in the "Input" column for the Low pH Range and High pH Range was transposed in the February 29, 2008 response.The table below shows the corrected information.
The transposition in the February 29, 2008 letter was a typographical error and does not affect our chemical precipitation analysis.We do not adjust the volume or concentration of sodium hydroxide in the caustic standpipe during the operating cycle.START OF LOCA 1,000,000 SECONDS (0 SEC.)

Licensing Basis NRC Question 44 Please describe any surveillance requirements applicable to the emergency core cooling recirculation strainer installed at Kewaunee to ensure that the strainer is not restricted by debris and that there is no evidence of structural distress or abnormal corrosion.
Response There currently are no Technical Specification surveillance requirements for the Emergency Core Cooling recirculation sump strainer.
However, Kewaunee is transitioning to Improved Technical Specifications (ITS). The ITS will include a new surveillance requirement for a visual inspection of the strainer and debris interceptors every 18 months. The ITS submittal was sent to NRC on August 24, 2009 (ADAMS Accession No. ML092440426).
DRAFT April 23, 2010 Serial No. 10-025 Attachment 2 Page 77 of 77 The new surveillance will verify no debris restrictions and no structural distress.
The requirement also includes visual inspection to ensure no abnormal corrosion, however, the strainer and debris interceptor components are constructed from stainless steel materials.
The new surveillance requirement has already been incorporated into plant procedures OP-KW-OSP-CCI-003, Cold Shutdown Containment Inspection, and OP-KW-OSP-CCI-002, Containment Inspection During Power Operation.

The quantity is determined by debris samples collected by CM-AA-CRS-101, Latent Debris Collection and Sampling Procedure (Reference 5.2.14).Latent debris is part of the Post-LOCA (Loss of Coolant Accident) generated debris inventory.
This debris inventory is an input to the debris transport calculation (Reference 5.2.9). The transport calculation determines the quantity of post-LOCA debris that has the potential to reach the Containment recirculation sump strainer (158-051) and affect the head loss for the strainer (Reference 5.2.11). The transported debris can also affect the quantity of debris that can bypass (flow through) the strainer and impact the amount of wear on downstream components due to operating with debris-laden fluid, as well as potentially impact the debris bed formed on the nuclear fuel support grids (Reference 5.2.8 and 5.2.10). Latent debris is also an input to the post-LOCA chemical precipitation analysis (Reference 5.2.13).
 
==2.0 BACKGROUND==
 
This calculation supersedes Attachment 8.12 of Calculation 2004-08820, Rev. 3, "GSI-191 Debris Generation." During a review of the latent debris sampling and statistical analysis evaluation it was noted that several surface areas were omitted from the original calculation that should have been included (Reference 5.2.12). This calculation is updated to include the new surfaces and re-evaluates the overall quantity of latent debris in Containment with the additional surfaces.3.0 INPUTS AND ASSUMPTIONS

This assumption is supported by walkdown observations that debris distribution appeared uniform for a given surface type.3.2.2 It is assumed that the debris loading on cable trays is the same as the loading on ventilation ductwork.
Debris samples are not collected from cable trays (Reference 5.2.14).Page 2 of 10 Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc. Calculation C11928 Calculation/Evaluation Revision 0 Title: Latent Debris Determination 3.2.3 It is assumed that debris loading for a given surface or surface type, when not available due to lack of sample data, is the same as debris loading for a similar surface type. The assumptions will be documented in Table 6-2.4.0 METHODOLOGY AND ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA 4.1 METHODOLOGY 4.1.1 Data collection is performed in accordance with procedure CM-AA-CRS-101, Latent Debris Collection and Sampling Procedure (Reference 5.2.14).4.1.1.1 Using Table 6-2, determine the locations for sample collection.
4.1.1.2 Obtain at least 24 usable samples, with samples from each of the surface types.4.1.1.3 Determine if the new sample data will supersede the previous samples, or if the new sample data will be added to the existing data.Consideration should be given to cleaning activities that many have occurred since the previous samples were obtained.4.1.2 The Containment surfaces used to determine the total post-LOCA latent debris (dirt, dust) loading that can potentially reach the Containment sump recirculation strainer are listed in Table 6-2.4.1.2.1 The surface area calculations are included as Attachment 2.4.1.3 For each surface or surface type, dependent on sample availability, determine the sample mean and sample standard deviation.

Calculation C11928 Calculation/Evaluation Revision 0 Title: Latent Debris Determination s 5 + tU (Eq. 4-3)Where: tUL = t distribution value at 90% confidence for sample size n AUL = upper limit on the mean debris loading at 90%confidence (g/ft 2)4.1.5 Estimate the total debris mass for each surface and surface type by multiplying the total area for the surface type by the upper limit on the mean debris loading at 90% confidence (g/ft 2).4.1.6 When data is not available for a given surface, substitute a debris loading from a similar surface type until future data is available.
Document the substitution as a calculation assumption in Table 6-2.4.1.7 When the acceptance criteria administrative limit is exceeded, or is being approached, initiate a Condition Report (CR) to evaluate Containment cleanliness and determine if corrective actions are necessary.
 
===4.2 ACCEPTANCE===
 
CRITERIA 4.2.1 The acceptance criteria for the total allowable quantity of latent debris in Containment is determined by the quantity of latent debris assumed in the GSI-191 tests and analyses.4.2.1.1 The acceptable quantity of latent debris for the entire Containment Building is 100 lbs.4.2.1.2 Fifteen (15) percent of the latent debris is assumed to be fibrous debris.4.2.1.2.1 The acceptance criteria for latent fibrous debris is 15 lbs.4.2.1.2.2 The administrative limit for latent fibrous debris is 10 lbs.4.2.1.3 Eighty-five (85) percent of the latent debris is assumed to be particulate debris.4.2.1.3.1 The acceptance criteria for latent particulate debris is 85 lbs.4.2.1.3.2 The administrative limit for latent particulate debris is 60 lbs.Page 4 of 10 Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc.

10 INFORMATION USE DOMINION CM-AA-CRS-1 01 REVISION 2 PAGE 4 OF 10 1.0 PURPOSE 1.1 This procedure outlines the guidelines and methods for the collection and sampling evaluation of latent debris (particulate and fibrous debris, i.e., dust, dirt, lint, fibers, shavings, etc.) in containment.
[CM 8.1.4]1.2 This procedure outlines the walkdown activities for collection of debris samples, required equipment, collection methods, and proposed locations.
1.3 This procedure is used to gather latent debris samples to determine if the current quantity of latent debris in containment (debris inventory) remains bounding by the debris assumption for design basis for the Emergency Core Cooling Sump (ECCS)Recirculation Strainer.
[CM 8.1.1] [CM 8.1.2] [CM 8.1.3] ([CM 8.1.5] KPS only)2.0 SPECIAL TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT 2.1 Instruments and equipment for latent debris walkdown collection and sampling activities may include, but are not limited to: " Personnel Protective Equipment (to be determined by the governing Radiation Work Permit (RWP) and Site Safety Manual" Masslin cloth (at least 50 approx. 24" x 24")" HEPA vacuum cleaner designated for use in Radiologically Controlled Area (RCA)with removable filter element" Calibrated scale with an accuracy of at least 0.1 gram" Plastic ziplock bags (at least 50), bags sized to contain one Masslin cloth or HEPA vacuum cleaner filter element" Approved ink type markers" Location maps" Labels (at least 50) minimum size 1" x 3"" Narrow brush with long bristles and long handle" Portable illumination, i.e., flashlight" Tape measure 3.0 PREREQUISITES
 
===3.1 Walkdown===
personnel shall be aware of the potential for inaccuracies involving the initial and post collection weights of specimen containers and specimen samples taken for debris determination inventory.
This discrepancy has been described in Sargent & Lundy Performance Improvement Process (PIP) 2005-0278 (Reference 8.3.6).3.2 Walkdown personnel should be familiar with the walkdown plan by the GSI-1 91 Site Owner, and knowledgeable on use of the equipment used for sampling.INFORMATION USE DOMINION CM-AA-CRS-101 REVISION 2 PAGE 5 OF 10 3.3 Health Physics (HP) shall be notified prior to performing the walkdown inside containment, as well as requisite HP briefing.3.4 The sampling frequency shall be every fifth refueling outage after completion of the sump modification, if containment wash downs are performed during each refueling outage. The sampling frequency shall be every other outage after completion of the sump modification if containment wash downs are not performed.
Sampling shall also be performed after any invasive or extended maintenance has occurred such as a steam generator replacement, or more frequently if determined by the GSI-191 Site Owner.3.5 Use the site's current latent debris evaluation or tracking document to determine the quantity and locations of samples to be collected (See Section 5.2). Sample area locations should be listed or documented on the respective site containment area maps prior to walkdown to identify areas for HP assessment, preparation of RWP requirements, and to maximize ALARA while collecting the samples in containment.
 
===4.0 PRECAUTIONS===
 
AND LIMITATIONS
 
===4.1 Sampling===
for latent debris collection shall commence near the end of the outage after bulk work in containment is completed.
 
===4.2 Perform===
walkdown, and latent debris collection in a safe manner practicing ALARA.4.3 Prior to starting work in a Radiation Area, have HP survey the work area. Ensure the proper RWP has been issued.4.4 Ensure components and structures will not be damaged (gouged, dented, deformed)or operationally altered while gaining access or while obtaining debris samples.4.5 Steps may be performed concurrently or in any sequence consistent with good engineering and construction practices.
 
===4.6 During===
collection of sample, minimize to greatest extent possible, the creation of fugitive airborne dust and dirt. Give special attention to assure the items within the vicinity of the sample collection, are covered and protected as required.4,7 Provide adequate supplemental lighting as necessary to perform sample collection activities.
4.8 If samples are collected from cable trays, energized equipment, electrical cabinets, and equipment with moving parts, ensure equipment is placed in a safe condition prior to obtaining sample. Personnel collecting samples on all energized equipment shall be qualified and have completed the necessary site electrical training.4.9 Remove all collected samples from the RCA, in accordance with HP directives.

In general, sample locations should include floors, containment liner, horizontal, and vertical ventilation duct, walls, horizontal and vertical equipment, horizontal, and vertical piping, and miscellaneous items such as structural steel, junction boxes, and monitoring devices.The specific number and location of sample locations should approximately correspond to the original site specific sampling locations performed for the original walkdown where samples were obtained that established the original latent debris design input. As a minimum, there should be at least three samples from each distinctive surface type.5.3 PLACE Masslin cloth or HEPA vacuum filter element inside the respective plastic collection bag. The collection bag should have an identification label with a unique identifying number correlating to all pre-determined locations in containment where samples are desired. PRE-WEIGH the sample bags and cloths or filters element and RECORD on Attachment 1.5.4 The sample area size should be selected to provide a representative quantity of debris on the surface type.MEASURE and DOCUMENT the sample dimensions of the surface area from which the sample will be taken and RECORD the results on Attachment 1.5.5 WIPE with the Masslin cloth or vacuum the selected area collecting as much of the debris as possible and deposit debris and cloth or vacuum filter element in the collection bag.5.6 The actual sample area locations may be changed during the walkdown if the original location can not be accessed, or due to HP discretion based on ALARA considerations, or interference with other on-going outage activities.
Clearly identify location on Attachment

In order to determine the Total Corrected Clean Strainer Head Loss two (2)distinct calculation methodologies are employed as described in section 5.0 Methodology.
Each methodology is utilized to separately calculate the head loss for the strainer and for the pipe and fittings.7.1 Clean Strainer Head Loss As summarized in [Reference 9.3], PCI developed a head loss curve as a function of strainer exit velocity for the test strainer, PCI Prototype II. The subject curve supports the determination of strainer head loss for strainers of different diameter internal core tubes from the prototype that was tested (NOTE: The subject head loss determination must be corrected for the Kewaunee strainer assemblies).
PCI also considered a number of minor adjustments to address other physical differences between the Kewaunee strainer and the PCI Prototype II, such as the differences in strainer length between the Prototype II strainer and the Kewaunee strainer, and the specific penetration velocity through the Kewaunee strainer plates.7.2 Clean Strainer Test Data In order to calculate the Clean Strainer exit velocities, PCI utilized Equation 1 from [Reference 9.4]. The calculation is as follows.Equation I V.1  = Qgt, I Aqx [Reference 9.4]Where, Qs, = strainer water flow rate, gpm x 0.002228 to convert to ftl/sec Ax =exit area, or cross section area of the inside of the strainer's core, ft 2 Vex = Strainer Exit Velocity, ft/sec As discussed in [Reference 9.4], the equation for the strainer only (i.e., without any pipe and/or fitting losses) Clean Head Loss is given by Equation 2 below.Equation 2 H. = A+ K1 v V + K2 (Vex 2 1 2g) [Reference 9.4]Page 1 of 4 Serial No. 10-025 Docket 50-305 ENCLOSURE F-1 (RAI F.19.A) EXCERPT FROM CLEAN STRAINER HEAD LOSS CALCULATION Where, v = water's kinematic viscosity, ftlsec (a function of water temperature) g = gravitational constant, which is 32.2 ft / see 2 A = a constant with a very small value of 0.002205 feet of water -0, as defined in [Reference 9.3], and can therefore be ignored.K,- a coefficient multiplied by v to allow adjustment to the water temperature K2 = another coefficient that is multiplied times the dynamic head of the water at the strainers exit.In [Reference 9.3], it is also shown that these coefficients, K(, and K2 have the following values (determined by a regression analysis of the test data): K 1 = 1,024 and K2 = 0.8792 With the values of the coefficients determined and utilizing Equation 2, the Base Head Loss, HLea was calculated for different water temperatures where the value of kinematic viscosity, v is selected based on the design basis water temperature.
Kewaunee has specified that the water temperature for long term cooling following the initiation of a LOCA is 65 0 F [Reference 9.11. Accordingly, the actual base Clean Strainer Head Loss can be computed using the value of Exit Velocity, Vex for the particular water flow rate. Selecting a value of v for the particular water temperature from [Reference 9.7], the Exit Velocity can be computed using Equation I and the values of specified water flow rate values, respectively, for the Kewaunee strainer.
Each strainer's core tube has an 18.00 inch outside diameter and a 0.06 inch wall thickness
[References 10.1 -10.7, inclusive).

Debris Laden Head Loss The Kewaunee Debris Laden Strainer Head Loss tests performed at ARL are summarized in Table 4.AREVA Tests Nos. 3 and 9 [Reference 9.5] are the Design Basis Test and the Supplemental Design Basis Test for Kewaunee, respectively.
Both Kewaunee Design Basis tests are intended to show recirculation at 1,920 gpm with a water level above the top of the Kewaunee strainer.AREVA Test No. 9 Supplemental Design Basis Test was performed with an increased debris load to add debris inventory margin, Additional information regarding both the Clean Head Loss and Debris Laden Head Loss testing that was performed at ARL is specifically discussed in detail in [Reference 9.5].Table 4 -ARL Test Debris Laden Strainer Head Loss Test Strainer Debris Test Laden Head Temperature, Loss, ft of water OF Test No. 3 Design Basis Test 0.51036 105.8 Test No. 9 Supplemental Design 1.66970 116.1 Basis Test NOTE: Debris laden head losses were the measured head losses minus the ARL piping and the Kewaunee clean strainer head losses.PCI utilized the head losses associated with both Test 3 and Test 9 ARL test results, respectively in combination with the Kewaunee post-LOCA specified recirculation temperature (i.e., 65 'F) to determine the various Kewaunee Strainer Total Head Losses.7.2.1 Temperature Correction Strainer Debris Laden Head Loss The dynamic viscosity of the specific test water (i.e., 105.8 'F and 116.1 OF, respectively) and the post-LOCA temperature (i.e., 65 "F)is determined by linear interpolation utilizing dynamic viscosity values taken from [Reference 9.7]. Table 5 provides a summary Page 1 of 4 Serial No. 10-025 Docket 50-305 ENCLOSURE F-2 (RAI F.19.A) EXCERPT FROM TOTAL HEAD LOSS CALCULATION of the dynamic viscosity associated with the various test and post-LOCA water temperatures that are utilized in this calculation.

The Kewaunee specified post-LOCA water temperature is specified.
in [Reference 9.1]. The debris head loss requires correction to this temperature to determine the head loss at the Kewaunee specified post-LOCA temperatures.
See Section 7.2.2 for temperature correction methodology.
The strainer debris laden head loss for low velocity water flow through a debris bed of fibers plus particulate is linearly dependent on the water's dynamic viscosity
[Reference 9.19].7.2.2 Post-LOCA Temperature Correction Strainer Debris Laden Head Loss A head loss correction utilizing Assumption 3.4, which is based on the standard debris head loss equation [Reference 9,111, can be used to calculate a temperature adjusted debris head loss, HLTA.The HLTA adjusted temperature can be calculated by taking a ratio of dynamic viscosity values at the two different temperatures being Page 2 of 4 Serial No. 10-025 Docket 50-305 ENCLOSURE F-2 (RAI F. 19.A) EXCERPT FROM TOTAL HEAD LOSS CALCULATION considered (i.e., the test water temperature and the Kewaunee specific post-LOCA sump water temperature).
HLTA = HLE)L,C (PiST I J TT)Where HLDL.C= corrected, Debris Loaded Head Loss, ft PST = dynamic viscosity at the Kewaunee Design Basis specified temperature of 650 F pTT '= dynamic viscosity at the various average test temperatures of 69 &deg;F, 105.8 &deg;F, and 116.1 OF HLTA = temperature adjusted debris head loss, ft Applying the HLTA equation to the ARL measured head loss with the three water viscosities (i.e., two (2) average test water temperatures and Kewaunee specified post-LOCA water temperature), the value of HLTA is calculated by the above equation.
The HLTA is added to the clean strainer head loss that results in the total head loss for the Kewaunee ECCS based on the various specified post-LOCA water levels and temperatures.
Table 6 in Section 7.3 provides a summary of the Kewaunee ECCS head losses based on the Kewaunee specified post-LOCA water level and temperature.

'Design" corresponds to full submergence conditions
[Reference 9.1].2. The Clean Head Loss (Temperature Corrected) is based on the Clean Head Loss determined in calculation TDI-6008-05.
The Clean Head Loss has been temperature corrected for the Kewaunee specified post-LOCA recirculation temperature.
The Clean Head Loss for Kewaunee is a "worse case" head loss that may not be applicable to all of the various ECCS operational scenarios.
However, it does provide a 'bounding worse case" head loss for Design Basis conditions that was conservatively utilized for all.Kewaunee head loss determinations.
: 3. The Debris Laden Head Loss (Temperature Corrected) is based on Sections 7.2.1 and 7.2.2 and the test data of Table 4.4. The Total Head Loss (Temperature Corrected) is determined by subtracting the CSHL Regression Formula value from the Clean Head Loss (Temperature Corrected) which results in head losses from only the strainer discharge piping and assembly, adding the ARL Test Clean Head Loss (Temperature Corrected) value, and adding the Debris Laden Head Loss (Temperature Corrected) which cumulatively results in the maximum Kewaunee strainer head loss (clean strainertstrainer assembly losses plus debris (i.e., fibrous, particulate, miscellaneous, and chemical precipitates) laden losses).5. The values reflected herein may not show trailing digits, which simply means the checking of calculations can yield slightly different values than has been calculated for the calculation.
These rounding errors are considered insignificant and therefore acceptable.
Any rounding errors are bounded by the uncertainty applied to the Clean Strainer Head Loss.-1 M m x 0 m-1 0z r--0 r-0 Mr-CD I-0 Z 0 (z 0 0 0 CD 01 M U)Z 0 C)0Q 0J

-Kewaunee Power Station Technical Document No. TDI-6008-07 Revision 6 1.0 Purpose and Summary Results The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) in generic safety issue (GSI)191 identified it was possible that debris in PWR containments could be transported to the emergency core cooling system (ECCS) sump(s) following a main steam line break (MSLB) and/or a loss of coolant accident (LOCA). It was further determined that the transported debris could possibly clog the sump screens/strainers and impair the flow of water, thus directly affecting the resultant operability of the various ECCS pumps and the containment spray (CS) system pumps, and their ability to meet their design basis function(s).
In order to address and resolve the various issues identified by the USNRC in GSI-191, utilities have implemented a program of replacing the existing ECCS sump screens or strainers with new and improved designs.Dominion Energy Kewaunee, Inc. (DEK) entered into a contract with Performance Contracting, Inc. (PCI) to address and resolve the specific issues associated with USNRC GSI-191 for the Kewaunee Power Station (Kewaunee).
The primary objective of the contract was for PCI to provide a qualified Sure-FlowR Suction Strainer that has been specifically designed for Kewaunee in order to address and resolve the NRC GSI-191 ECCS sump clogging issue.PCI has prepared a Qualification Report specifically for the subject strainer.
The Qualification Report is a compilation of the various documents and calculations that support the strainer qualification.
As part of the Kewaunee Qualification Report, PCI has performed a number of hydraulic calculations in support of the replacement Sure-Flow Suction Strainer.This calculation TDI-6008-07, Vortex, Air Ingestion
& Void Fraction -Kewaunee Power Station is one of a number of hydraulic calculations that specifically supports the design and qualification of the subject strainer.This calculation addresses the various issues associated with the separate but related issues associated with vortex, air ingestion, and void fraction as they relate to the sump and strainer assembly that has been designed specifically for Kewaunee.Kewaunee has one recirculation strainer assembly that feeds a common suction sump. The Kewaunee 'A' or 'B' train ECCS and the CS system are supplied by the recirculation strainer.
The horizontally oriented recirculation strainer assembly is comprised of fourteen (14) modules each made up of six (6) strainer disks for a total strainer area of 768.7 ft 2.Flow leaves the strainer and enters a combination of pipe and fittings before discharging into the sump pit.

& Terminology are defined and described as they are utilized in this calculation.
Sure-Flow Suction Strainer -Strainer developed and designed by Performance Contracting, Inc. that employs Sure-Flow technology to reduce inlet approach velocity.Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) -The ECCS is a combination of pumps, piping, and heat exchangers that can be combined in various configurations to provide either safety injection or decay heat cooling to the reactor.Kewaunee Power Station -also known as Kewaunee and KPS.Main Steam Line Break -also known as MSLB. A MSLB is not a LOCA.Containment Spray System -also known as CSS or CS. System is utilized to address either a MSLB or a LOCA.Loss-Of-Coolant-Accident

A LOCA can be classified as a large break LOCA (LBLOCA) or a small break LOCA (SBLOCA).
Classification is directly dependent upon the nominal size of the affected pipe that is associated with the LOCA.3.0 Facts and Assumptions The following Facts (designated as [F]) & Assumptions (designated as [A]) were utilized in the preparation of this calculation.

The scaling factor is defined as ratio of the surface area of the scale strainer and the surface area of the full scale production strainer [A].3.4 The head loss resulting from flow through a fiber -particulate debris bed at the approach velocity for the Kewaunee strainer (0.0056 ft/s)[Reference 9.10], is 100% viscous flow, as opposed to inertial flow. As viscous flow, head loss is linearly dependent on the product of viscosity and velocity.
Therefore, to adjust the measured head loss across a debris bed with colder water, a ratio of water viscosities, between the warmer specified post-LOCA water temperature and the colder test temperature, can be multiplied by the measured head loss to obtain a prediction of the head loss with water at the specified post-LOCA temperature

This document provides specific information regarding the post-LOCA containment water level for calculating flashing and determining gas evolution for the new strainer.5.0 Methodology PCI utilized classical standard hydraulic principles and equations to address the subject issues. PCI recognizes that if it is determined that one of the issues cannot occur and/or can be prevented, then one or more of the other issues cannot occur (e.g., if a vortex is not predicted by calculation then there should be no air ingestion).
However, PCI has conservatively assumed that each issue is separate, and each issue will be addressed on its own merits.6.0 Acceptance Criteria This specific calculation addresses three (3) separate but related issues -vortex, air ingestion and void fraction.
Accordingly, each issue has it own separate acceptance criterion.
The final overall acceptance criterion is that the Kewaunee ECCS pumps have adequate NPSH margin under all postulated post-LOCA conditions.
Vortex The USNRC in RG 1.82 Revision 3 [Reference 9.6] has indicated that air ingestion can lead to ECCS pump degradation and/or failure. A vortex is a potential source of air ingestion.
A vortex can be prevented due to various combinations of sump configuration and the addition of vortex suppressors in the sump.The Acceptance Criteria for vortex is the complete elimination of occurrence.
Air Ingestion RG 1.82 Revision 3 [Reference 9.6] states that air ingestion can lead to ECCS pump degradation and/or failure if air ingestion is > 3%. Accordingly, the USNRC has recommended a limit of 2% by volume on sump air ingestion.
In addition, the USNRC has also recommended that even with air ingestion levels at 2% or less, NPSH can still be affected.
The USNRC has further recommended that if air ingestion is indicated, that the NPSH be corrected from the pump curves.The Acceptance Criteria for air ingestion is < 2%.Originated By: -Date: / , TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

Attachment V-1 of [Reference 9.7].7.0 Calculation(s)
In order to address and determine the acceptability and/or issues potentially associated with the three (3) separate but related issues of vortex, air ingestion and void fraction, a separate analysis of each issue was performed.
 
===7.1 Vortex===
The Kewaunee specification
[Reference 9.1], specifically section 3.6.9 addresses strainer vortex, but does not provide limitations on the new strainer design that specifically prohibits the formation of a vortex (i.e., no vortex allowed).
Accordingly, PCI has utilized the guidance of USNRC RG 1.82, Revision 3 [Reference 9.4] to address the vortex issue for the Kewaunee strainer.In [Reference 9.6], the USNRC provided generic guidance with respect to PWR sump performance, sump design, and vortex suppression.
The subject reference can be utilized as a means of assessing sump hydraulic performance, specifically the issues associated with a potential vortex in the sump.The Kewaunee sump pit is approximately 8'-6" (W) x 8'-6" (L) x 7'-9" (D), including the height of the curb around the sump. The opening into the sump is approximately 2'-8" (W) x 8'-6" (L). The majority of the sump is covered by the Reactor Building floor slab located at elevation 592'-0".The opening into the sump was previously covered by a plate on which were mounted, two (2) "conical-shaped" vertically oriented strainer elements that were made of Johnson screen [Reference 9.1].Since the Kewaunee sump and ECCS pump inlets were modified by the addition of the PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer, the guidance offered by the USNRC in [Reference 9.6] is not entirely or specifically applicable.
However, the guidance does provide some information that can be utilized Originated By: Date: //I.TD-00-7 oteAi nesin oi rato 7 --Re.do Pa-elpf32 TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

-E PC IKewau nee Power Station PERFORMANCE Technical Document No. TDI-6008-07 CONIRACIING INC Revision 6 in the assessment of the revised Kewaunee sump and strainer configuration with regard to vortex issues.The "revised" Kewaunee sump and strainer configuration utilizes a horizontally oriented, fourteen (14) module PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer that discharges through attached pipe and fittings to a cover plate mounted directly on the sump. In addition to the suction strainer, a removable maintenance hatch was installed containing a two-disk vertically oriented PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer [Drawing 10.1 -10.8, inclusive].
The PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer and removable maintenance hatch will be separately analyzed and addressed with respect to vortex issues.PCI Sure-Flow Suction Strainer The PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer for Kewaunee is comprised of fourteen (14) horizontally oriented modules each containing six (6) disks.The disks are a nominal 5/8" thick and are separated 1" from each adjacent disk. The interior of the disks contain rectangular wire stiffeners for support, configured as a "sandwich" made up of three (3) layers of wires -7 gauge, 8 gauge, and 7 gauge. The disks are completely covered with perforated plate having 0.066" holes. The end disk of a module is separated approximately 5" from the end disk of the adjacent module.The 5" space between adjacent modules is covered with a solid sheet metal "collar." Each of the modules has cross-bracing on the two exterior vertical surfaces of each module.Based on the design configuration of the Kewaunee strainer assembly, the largest opening for water to enter into the sump is through the perforated plate 0.066" holes. The size of the perforated plate holes by themselves would preclude the formation of a vortex. However, in the unlikely event that a series of "mini-vortices" combined in the interior of a disk to form a vortex, the combination of the wire stiffener "sandwich" and the small openings and passages that direct the flow of water to the strainer core tube would further preclude the formation of a vortex in either the core tube or the sump.The USNRC in [Reference 9.6], specifically Table A-6 guidance is provided with regard to vortex suppressors.
The table specifies that standard 1.5" or deeper floor grating or its equivalent has the capability to suppress the formation of a vortex with at least 6" of submergence.

-Kewaunee Power Station Technical Document No. TDI-6008-07 Revision 6 The design configuration of the PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer for Kewaunee due to the close spacing of various strainer components and the small hole size of the perforated plate meets and/or exceeds the guidance found in Table A-6. The Kewaunee strainer does not meet the 6" submergence requirement.
The configuration for Kewaunee results in an actual submergence of 3" (2" utilized for calculations) to the top of the strainer assembly.
However, there is a submergence level of approximately 11" to the top of the core tube. In addition the water flow would have to pass through more than 8" of combined perforated plate, wire stiffener "sandwiches", and cross-bracing which would further preclude the formation of a vortex.The USNRC carried out a number of tests regarding vortex suppressors at the Alden Research Laboratory (ARL) to arrive at the information summarized in Table A-6 of [Reference 9.6]. The PCI Sure-Flow suction strainer prototype for Kewaunee was also tested at ARL under various conditions.
During the original testing of the Kewaunee strainer even when partially uncovered, did not exhibit any characteristics associated with a vortex or vortex development.
The recent Kewaunee strainer testing at ARL in August 2008 indicated that there was no indication or observation of vortex initiation or formation
[Reference 9.4].It can therefore be concluded that the configuration of the Kewaunee Sure-Flow suction strainer will prevent the formation of vortex development.
Removable Maintenance Hatch The Removable Maintenance Hatch for Kewaunee is comprised of a single vertically oriented module containing two (2) disks. The disks are a nominal 5/8" thick and are separated 1" from each other. The interior of the disks contain a circular "spider" rectangular wire stiffeners for support, configured as a "sandwich" made up of three (3) layers of wires -7 gauge, 8 gauge, and 7 gauge. The disks are completely covered with perforated plate having 0.066" holes. An external radial debris stop with integral cross-bracing assists in both the structural stability of the two strainer disks as well as to preclude the introduction of large debris to the disks.Based on the fact that the subject strainer disks, cross bracing and the addition of the "spider" stiffener are of similar design configuration as that of the Kewaunee strainer assembly, and based upon its lower sump elevation and thus greater submergence than the ECCS Recirculation Strainer it can be concluded that the configuration of the Kewaunee ,V: ,,Date: /A /Originated E wj.ii i ..... / 12 -Page12of32 I TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

7.2 Air Ingestion The Kewaunee specification
[Reference 9.1], sections 3.4.1.10 and 3.4.1.13 address vortex issues, and section 3.4.1.13 specifically requires that the new strainer have a design that limits air ingestion to <2%. This requirement is in accordance with USNRC RG 1.82, Revision 3[Reference 9.6]. Appendix A and Table A-1 of [Reference 9.6] indicate that sump performance specifically related to air ingestion is a strong function of the Froude Number, Fr. By limiting the Froude Number to a maximum of 0.25, air ingestion can be maintained to <2%.The flow of post-LOCA water from a piping system associated with a LBLOCA or SBLOCA, or a CS initiation associated with a LOCA collects in the lower areas of the containment and eventually migrates to the ECCS sump. The flow can be considered to be and is classified as open channel flow. For open channel flow, the Froude Number, Fr, is defined as follows[Reference 9.11].Fr = V I (g x s)112 Where V = the velocity of water exiting the core tube. For Kewaunee Vex = 2.453 ft/s [Reference 9.10].S = the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the PCI Sure-FlowTM suction strainer core tube, Ae,, and the equivalent diameter of the core tube smallest orifice, Dhole , ft.g = gravitational constant, 32.2 ft/s 2 The most conservative value that can be utilized for s is the case of the core tube cross-sectional area and the smallest hole in the core tube.From the Kewaunee Clean Head Loss report [Reference 9.10], A.x =1.744 ft 2.The Kewaunee Core Tube Design report [Reference 9.19]2 indicates that the smallest calculated hole / slot area, Ahole, 1B = 0.720 in or 0.0050 ft 2 , Therefore, the equivalent diameter of the smallest core tube hole can be calculated as follows.>V:~/i Date: AA Originated E wj.~1 -I Page13 of 32 TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

Therefore due to the combination of a low Froude Number and lack of an air entrainment mechanism (i.e., vortex formation) in conjunction with the complete submergence of the strainer, air ingestion is not expected to occur.7.3 Void Fraction The Kewaunee specification
[Reference 9.1], does not specifically address the issue of Void Fraction.
Accordingly, PCI has utilized the guidance of USNRC documents
[Reference 9.5, 9.6. 9.7, and 9.15] to address the void fraction issue for the Kewaunee strainer.Although it is asserted in various regulatory documents that void formation is directly related to air ingestion, this is not correct. Void formation is the result of the pressure of a fluid being reduced below the saturation Originated By: ____ ____ Date: /TDI-00807 Vrte, Ar Ineston Voi Frctin -ev..do Pagl~o32 TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

Air does not need to be present to create significant voiding.PCI has evaluated the issue of Void Fraction by the use of conventional hydraulic and fluid flow calculations to determine the Kewaunee Void Fraction.Conventional Calculation Methodology Kewaunee [Reference 9.18] defined the containment post-LOCA water temperature as being 214.7110 F. A corresponding containment pressure of 39.3989 psia was provided [Reference 9.18]. The measured strainer Design Basis debris head loss was 1.1034 feet of water [Reference 9.9]and the Supplemental Design Basis debris head loss was 3.2860 feet of water [Reference 9.9], based on and adjusted for the Kewaunee Design Basis temperature of 65 OF. By applying a temperature viscosity adjustment
[Reference 9.9] to the strainer debris head losses (i.e., Design Basis and Supplemental Design Basis) from the Kewaunee Design Basis water temperature of 65 OF to the specified post-LOCA condition of 214.711 OF, the maximum expected debris head losses (i.e., Design Basis and Supplemental Design Basis) at the subject post-LOCA water temperature can be determined.

-Kewaunee Power Station Technical Document No. TDI-6008-07 Revision 6 Therefore boiling and flashing of the sump water will not occur across the strainer debris bed and would not create a > 3% void fraction.Because "flashing" would not occur at the strainer based on the Kewaunee specified temperature and pressure parameters within the post-LOCA containment, it is highly unlikely that "flashing" or a void fraction > 3% would be present at the outlet of the strainer piping as the strainer discharge flow enters the containment sump.This conclusion is based on the following analysis.Given [Reference 9.16]: Available submergence (total water depth in Kewaunee containment

9.175' (110.1")0.8731'8.3019' (3.5991 psi)It was previously determined that a minimum pressure of 0.3785 psi (i.e., Supplemental Design Basis Head Loss) is required to prevent "flashing" and subsequent void fraction formation.
Accordingly, it can be concluded that any voids caused by "flashing" of the water in the strainer would have collapsed by the time the water leaves the strainer assembly and discharge piping. This is based on the fact that the containment water head is at least 8.3019 feet greater than saturation (i.e., 3.5991 psi >0.3785 psi). Therefore it can be concluded that there will be 0% void fraction associated with the strainer discharge flow before it leaves the Kewaunee containment sump under the post-LOCA containment pressure and temperature parameters of 39.3989 psia and 214.7111 OF, respectively.

Flashing and gas evolution are addressed in Attachment 1.It was concluded that the subject issues have been addressed for Kewaunee and the results indicate that there are no problems.

In addition the analysis of gas evolution downstream of the strainer indicates that it is significantly less than 0.5% which is also less than the allowable 3% value stated in RG 1.82, Revision 3.Flashing (boiling) of the post-LOCA containment fluid would occur if the post-LOCA containment pressure was reduced to a value below the corresponding fluid temperature (saturation temperature), or if the head loss associated with the strainer and debris bed is such that the post-LOCA containment fluid passing through the strainer and debris bed is reduced to a value below the corresponding fluid temperature (saturation temperature).
The flashing post-LOCA containment fluid would release both condensable and non-condensable gases (gas evolution).
If the gases are released in a manner such that they are 'captured' by the strainer discharge fluid flow, they would cumulatively result in potential voids (void fraction) that could be transported to the ECCS/CSS pumps.In order to address the associated but separate issues of flashing and gas evolution (de-aeration) in a logical and concise manner, the large break loss-of-coolant accident (i.e., LBLOCA) will be addressed to determine and address the issue of flashing including minimum margin to flashing at the strainer debris bed and within the KPS sump. In addition, an evaluation of gas evolution (de-aeration) downstream of the strainer (void fraction) that could reach the ECCS/CSS pump suctions is also provided.BACKGROUND Large Break Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LBLOCA)The maximum ECCS/CSS recirculation flow is based on the KPS Design Basis conditions of Case 1, 1,920 gpm at 214.7111 &deg;F (i.e., initial. post-LOCA ECCS/CSS recirculation), and Case 2, 1,920 gpm at 65 OF (i.e., long-term post-LOCA ECCS/CSS recirculation).
Conservatively evaluating for a post-LOCA containment water level (i.e., minimum water level) at the initiation of ECCS/CSS recirculation for a LBLOCA equal to 2" strainer submergence (i.e., 39.25"), the water level is at Elevation 595.27' (i.e., 3.27'above KPS containment floor elevation of 592'-0").
The post-LOCA containment water level for long-term post-LOCA ECCS/CSS recirculation for a LBLOCA is Elevation 598.17' (i.e., 6.17' above KPS containment floor elevation of 592'-0") [Reference 9.21].Originated By: (a/_ __ _ Date: /A TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

-Kewaunee Power Station provides the basis for addressing flashing across the strainer surface. The subject calculation provides the specific methodology, basis, and assumptions for evaluating KPS with regard to the subject issue. However, the subject document initially only addressed the KPS Design Basis case associated with a LBLOCA. Subsequently, the Staff has identified a number of other related issues associated with flashing (void fraction) including head loss at the strainer module debris bed and the evolution of gas (de-aeration) downstream of the strainer module that could reach the ECCS/CSS pump inlets.Therefore, the strainer head loss is evaluated for two (2) distinct LBLOCA scenarios (i.e., Case 1,920 gpm at 214.7111 OF, and Case 2, 1,920 gpm at 65 OF) based on two (2) distinct time periods (i.e., post-LOCA short-term and post-LOCA long-term).
In addition, the related issues of flashing and the evolution of gas (de-aeration) downstream of the strainer module are also evaluated for KPS.LBLOCA Scenario The post-LOCA short-term is defined as the time period from LOCA initiation to the time when stable containment pressure, post-LOCA containment fluid temperature, and post-LOCA containment water level are achieved, which would occur in the first 24 hours following the initiation of the LOCA. During the initial period of the accident response, chemical precipitate debris and the associated effects on strainer head loss are not required to be considered in the determination of strainer head loss since chemical precipitate debris would not have begun to fully influence the strainer head loss for several more days. The post-LOCA long-term is defined as the post-LOCA containment conditions beyond the initial 24 hours through the end of the post-LOCA mission time (i.e., 30 days). The long-term post-LOCA period conservatively includes the maximum quantity of chemical precipitate debris and its effect on strainer head loss.In accordance with the guidance provided in USNRC Safety Guide 1.1 (Regulatory Guide 1.10), the post-LOCA containment initial conditions must be exactly the same as the pre-LOCA conditions for evaluating NPSH. In other words, immediately before the initiation of a LOCA, the pressure and temperature in the containment are at 'normal'operating conditions
-usually atmospheric pressure and the associated
'normal'operating temperature.
Accordingly, it is very conservatively assumed that the containment post-LOCA fluid peak temperature is >212 OF and atmospheric pressure Originated By: (i/-f<. Date: ToI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

Based on the stated assumptions, this would result in a very conservative analysis.
It is also recognized that the application of post-LOCA containment
'over-pressure' (i.e., containment accident pressure) was limited to NPSH calculations as discussed in USNRC Safety Guide 1.1 (Regulatory Guide 1.10). It should be noted that KPS does not take 'credit' for post-LOCA containment
'over-pressure' in their NPSH calculations.
The recent issues of strainer blockage and associated head loss (i.e., RG 1.82 Rev. 3, GSI-191, and GL-2004-02) at the time SG 1.1 was developed were never considered with regard to the application of the 'over-pressure' credit for addressing strainer head loss rather than NPSH. It should be noted that KPS does not take 'credit' for post-LOCA containment
'over-pressure' in their evaluation of GL 2004-02 issues.The USNRC safety evaluation report (SER) provided in Volume 2 of NEI 04-07 indicates that ECCS pumps can experience cavitation problems when inlet void fraction exceeds approximately 3%. Since it is very difficult (if not impossible) to calculate the actual percentage of flashing (void fraction) due to the many variables and dynamics of the post-LOCA strainer debris bed, PCI has chosen a solution that completely eliminates flashing (void fraction).
There are two (2) possible methods to address flashing.
The first is to assess the static head of water based on the post-LOCA containment minimum water level. The static water head based on the height of the post-LOCA minimum containment water level to the centerline of the ECCS/CSS pump suction inlet must be determined.
If the static water head height exceeds the calculated head loss across the strainer debris bed, then the static water head will have 'collapsed' any voids before they leave the containment (sump). In many cases this is the most straightforward and simple method of assessing flashing issues. However, if the static water head height does not exceed the calculated head loss across the strainer bed, then flashing is present. In this case, post-LOCA containment over-pressure credit is needed in order to eliminate the issue of flashing.The issues of USNRC Safety Guide 1.1 requirements and GSI-191 with regard to credit of post-LOCA containment over-pressure was recently addressed by the Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards (ACRS) Letter of March 18, 2009, titled, Crediting Containment Overpressure in Meeting the Net Positive Suction Head Required to Demonstrate that the Safety Systems Can Mitigate the Accidents As Designed (Accession No: ML090700464).
LBLOCA SCENARIO FOR FLASHING At the initiation of the LBLOCA (i.e., Case 1, 1,920 gpm at 214.7111 OF), the amount of post-LOCA debris transported to the strainer will be less than that for the long-term KPS Design Basis LBLOCA. Unqualified coatings and 'wash-down' debris may not have Originated By: C Date: X TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

Post-LOCA chemical particulate debris per the WCAP [Reference 9.23] will not begin to form until the post-LOCA water temperature is approximately 140 OF or less. Therefore, the initial post-LBLOCA debris head loss will be much less than the evaluated KPS Design Basis debris head loss.Utilizing the KPS Design Basis flow rate of 1,920 gpm for the LBLOCA, the CSHL and total strainer head loss (TSHL) based on the KPS strainer module arrangement were determined including uncertainty.
Table Al-1 provides a summary of the estimated approximate head loss associated with the respective flow rates.Table Al-1 -KPS LBLOCA Scenario Head Loss LBLOCA Scenario CSHL, ft TSHL W/O TSHL, ft of of water Chemical Debris, water ft of water Case 1, 1,920 gpm at 214.7111 OF 0.344 0.4444 0.5528 Case 2, 1,920 gpm at 65 OF 0.365 0.7384 1.1034 NOTE: The CSHL, TSHL without chemical debris, and the TSHL were determined based on a combination of PCI KPS calculations and KPS ARIJAREVA Large Flume Test Results. For Case 2, PC[ utilized.the calculated values in TDI -6008-05 & -06. For Case 1, since the subject temperature was not a KPS Design Basis temperature, PCi utilized the same calculation methodology and philosophy found in TDI-6008-05
& -06 to determine the CSHL, TSHL without chemicals debris, and the TSHL for the KPS specified Case 1 temperature of 214.7111 OF.KPS is a Westinghouse 2 -loop NSSS based design. This design is unique because of the fact that before the Refueling Water Storage Tank (RWST) reaches its 'low' level alarm with respect to remaining volume, post-LOCA ECCS/CSS recirculation is initiated before the RWST is 'emptied'.
In other words, ECCS/CSS recirculation is occurring at the same time that the RWST is being depleted by the ECCS/CSS injection process.Therefore, the KPS strainer experiences continuous rising post-LOCA containment water level following the initiation of ECCS/CSS recirculation until the RWST is depleted.A conservative timeline for the KPS post-LOCA events [Reference 9.18, 9.20, 9.21, and 9.22] is as follows: T + 0 min.

Therefore, the TSHL for temperatures greater than 140 OF should not include the head loss associated with chemical precipitate debris.Based on this scenario of minimal initial debris transport and chemical particulate debris generation, the KPS LBLOCA scenario can be evaluated by simply utilizing the first method of comparing the submerged strainer elevation static head of water (i.e., submergence depth) to the top of the strainer at the initiation of ECCS/CSS recirculation (i.e., 595.62' -595.10' = 0.52') and to the ECCS/CCS inlet pipe centerline elevation (i.e., 595.62'- 586.17" = 9.45'), which is 0.52 and 9.45 ft of water respectively based on the post-LOCA containment minimum water level to the calculated CSHL. However, the post-LOCA containment water level will continue to rise to a minimum high water elevation of 598.17'. Therefore, based on the final high water minimum level, the submerged strainer elevation static head of water (i.e., submergence depth) to the top of the strainer at the initiation of ECCS/CSS recirculation (i.e., 598.17' -595.10' = 3.07')and to the ECCS/CCS inlet pipe centerline elevation (i.e., 598.17' -586.17" = 12.00'), is 3.07 and 12.00 ft of water respectively.

It is based on the WCAP [Reference 9.23] that concluded that chemical precipitate debris will not form at temperatures greater than 140 OF. Therefore, since the Case 1 temperature is 214.7111 OF, chemical precipitate debris will not form and is not considered as part of the TSHL.

In the highly unlikely event that potential flashing does take place at the strainer discharge and/or within the associated KPS sump, and voids occur, Table A1-5 provides a summary comparison of the LBLOCA Strainer Submergence for all of the various 'types' of head loss related to the ECCS/CSS Inlet Pipe Submergence scenario.Table A1-5 -KPS LBLOCA ECCS/CSS Inlet Pipe Submergence Scenario LBLOCA Scenario CSHL, ft TSHL W/O TSHL, ft Comparison, ft of of water Chemical of water water Debris, ft of water Case 1, 1,920 gpm at 0.344 0.4444 0.5528 12.00 > 0.5528 >214.7111 OF 0.4444 > 0.344 Case 2, 1,920 gpm at 0.365 0.7384 1.1034 12.00 > 1.1034 >65 OF 0.7384 > 0.365 Based on the results summarized in Table A1-5, there is sufficient ECCS/CSS inlet pipe submergence to preclude flashing voids from leaving the KPS sump.An additional evaluation regarding the second method assumed that the static water head height does not exceed the calculated head loss (i.e., across the strainer bed), and therefore flashing is present. It should be noted that for KPS, this is not the case.However, PCI evaluated this case for KPS regarding post-LOCA containment over-pressure credit in order to eliminate the issue of void fraction.The maximum LBLOCA scenario head loss for KPS based on the Beyond Design Basis Supplemental Design Basis is 3.2860 ft of water (- 1.425 psi) at 65 OF for KPS. The KPS maximum allowable head loss of 10.00' results in an equivalent head loss of approximately 4.335 psi at 65 OF for KPS.Accordingly, post-LOCA containment over-pressure of 1.425 psi or 4.335 psi at 65 OF would be required for KPS to prevent flashing at the strainer debris bed for the calculated (i.e., 1.425 psi or 3.2860 ft of water) and Design Basis allowable maximum head loss (i.e., 4.335 psi or 10.00 ft of water), respectively.
Based on the KPS design basis and safety analysis report, there will always be more than adequate post-LOCA containment over-pressure to prevent flashing of the KPS strainer for the LBLOCA 67/Originated By: Date: / ,Ie TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

-Kewaunee Power Station the KPS head loss values were determined for the two (2) KPS Design Basis conditions of Case 1, 1,920 gpm at 214.7111 OF, and for Case 2, 1,920 gpm at 65 OF as 1.263 and 2.37 ft of water, respectively.
The vortex, air ingestion, and void fraction analysis concluded that void fraction occurring at the strainer debris bed due to head loss and the accompanying post-LOCA conditions would be reversed and any voids would have collapsed before the strainer discharge fluid left the containment sump and entered the ECCS/CSS inlet lines. The net void fraction (i.e., net air production) is therefore 0%. Therefore, void fraction is not an issue for any of the post-LOCA fluid associated pressure and temperature combinations associated with the subject fluid flow from the strainer to the ECCS/CSS inlet lines.It is recognized that a small amount of de-aeration will occur due to the difference in the solubility of air in water resulting from the pressure differential across the strainer and debris bed. A conservative assessment was made of the theoretical void fraction (air ingestion rate) which is expected to be minimal.The solubility of air in water is inversely proportional to the water temperature.
In other words, the solubility is a maximum at the lowest water temperature of interest.
In addition, the solubility is proportional to absolute pressure.
The difference of solubility is 0.023 g Air / kg Water per one atmosphere.
The KPS bounding differential pressure for the strainer is 10.00' (i.e., Design Basis Maximum Allowable Head Loss). Therefore, 10.00' = 3.048 m = 0.295 atm.Conservatively assuming that the water entering the strainer is fully saturated with air, the bounding difference of air solubility in water is as follows: 0.295 x 0.023 = 0.006785 g Air / kg Water Originated By: /,,, , -Date: /Z /, /TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

At the ECCS/CSS pump suctions from the KPS sump pit, the strainer discharge water experiences a pressure increase again due to the static water head (i.e., the water column above the ECCS/CSS pump suctions inlets within the sump). The minimum LBLOCA post-LOCA containment water elevation for evaluating 2" strainer submergence is 595.27', but the minimum high water elevation is 598.17'. The ECCS/CSS pump suction inlets in the sump are located at centerline elevation 586.17'.This would theoretically result in an elevation difference of 9.1' or 12.00', respectively based on the post-LOCA containment water level evaluated.
If the minimum post-LOCA water level of 595.27' is utilized, this results in a value, 9.1' of water which is less than the postulated strainer differential pressure of 10.00'. However, the ECCS/CSS pump inlets are located at elevation 569.396'.
This would result in an elevation difference of 25.874', which is more than the postulated strainer differential pressure of 10.00'. In the case of the minimum high water elevation of 598.17', the postulated strainer differential pressure is less, 10.00' < 12.00'. Even though there would be no gas evolution for this case, evaluating the ECCS/CSS pump inlets located at elevation 569.396', results in 28.774'.It should be further noted that the aforementioned discussion was based on a water temperature of 25 0C which is 77 OF. The KPS Design Basis minimum post-LOCA water temperature is 65 OF which is slightly less. Accordingly, at the KPS Design Basis minimum temperature the solubility of air in water would be approximately 15% higher than the conservatively calculated value of 0.579%.Therefore any void fraction that could occur at the strainer debris bed is very minimal. If any should occur, it is reversed before the strainer discharge water leaves the sump due to the significant static head of water above the ECCS/CSS pump suction inlets within the sump. The net void fraction is therefore zero and is not a problem for any of Originated By: K(..s7,' 1(e' Date: S- --7'-TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion

The assessment will utilize the same methodology utilized to assess void fraction within the sump by demonstrating that the elevation difference (i.e., static water head) between the sump outlet and the pump inlets is greater than the respective piping head losses.The minimum elevation difference between the sump outlet (elevation 586.17') and the pump inlet elevation 569.396' is 16.774'. This difference is significantly more than the maximum allowable suction line head loss of 10.00' (which also includes the head loss due to the new strainer).
Therefore, re-initiating void fraction downstream of the sump outlet is not possible.
This analysis results in a void fraction of zero at the ECCS/CSS pump inlets.Date: Originated By: TDI-6008-07 Vortex, Air Ingestion
