1 Methodology of Treatment of Multiple Failure Initiating Events for Seismic PRA (2)Success Criteria Analysis for Multiple Pipe Break Accidents of a PWR *TATSUYA KUNISHI, HITOSHI MUTA, KEN MURAMATSU AND YUKI KAMEKO TOKYO CITY UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL 1
2 Contents Background & Purpose Position of this study Analysis conditions Results & Consideration Conclusion & Future task 2
3 Background Multiple rupture events are not usually considered in PRAs of pressurized water reactors (PWRs) for internal events. Analyses assuming pipe break accidents in multiple location are not extensively performed. The possibility of Multiple Pipe Break Accidents occurrence by earthquake is very small, but the release of radioactive material etc. may be considered. Purpose Understanding the thermal hydraulic behavior in the reactor vessel and success criteria for core cooling systems considering beyond DBA 3
4 Position of this study In this study, we analyzed the following viewpoint and organized the findings. 1. Location (Location dependency) Effects of differences in location of the break points Confirm the influence by a combination of various break points. 2. Number of break points (Number of break points dependency) Relationship between fracture area and number of break points Confirm the difference in behavior due to the number of break points, assuming the Fracture area of the primary system piping is constant. 3. Fracture area (Fracture Area dependency) Relationship between the fracture area and the number of break points when changing the fracture area Confirm how the behavior differs depending on the size of the fracture area of the primary system piping from the viewpoint of 2. 4
5 Analysis Code Analysis Conditions RELAP (Reactor Excursion Leak Analysis Program) series Thermal hydraulic analysis code RELAP5-3D It is a well known and widely used code for thermal-hydraulic analysis. Model Plant The target model plant is 3-loop PWR (Output Power 2660MWt) 3-loops were separately modeled Detailed dimensions of the 3 loops PWR plant are not disclosed Lack of detailed dimension data were filled with simplified models. Validity of the plant model was checked by comparison with published LOCA analyses for similar PWRs. 5

9 Assumption of multiple piping rupture 1. Location (Location dependency) The fracture area are 100% rupture of the pressurizer surge pipe. Equal fracture is assumed for hot leg, crossover, cold leg. 2. Number of break points (Number of break points dependency) The fracture area are 100% rupture of the pressurizer surge pipe. In 2 break points, each points fracture area is 50% rupture of the pressurizer surge pipe. 3. Fracture area (Fracture area dependency) Fracture area twice as large as the pressurizer surge pipe in hot leg, crossover, cold leg. Evaluation Definition of core damage shall be when the surface temperature of cladding exceeds 1200 C. (about 1500 K) 9

11 Analysis Combination[Location] Number of break points 1 Piping Combination Crossover pipe (CR) Hot leg pipe (HL) Cold leg pipe (CL) Pressurizer Surge pipe (Psu) Case No ECCS operate HPI+LPI+ACCx3 HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 No ECCS operate HPI+LPI+ACCx3 HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 No ECCS operate HPI+LPI+ACCx3 HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 No ECCS operate HPI+LPI+ACCx3 HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 11
12 Analysis Results (No ECCS operate) 2500 Surface temperature of fuel cladding Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL HL CR Psu Timings of temperature rise are different, however, temperature rise does not differ greatly each other CL break could represent because of it s the severest behavior, if simplification needed Time [sec] 12
13 Analysis Results (HPI+LPI+ACCx3) Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL HL Surface temperature of fuel cladding CR Psu Cooling timing are different because of RV pressure behavior and cooling order is CL, CR, HL and Psu And the CL takes more time to cool down Time [sec] 13
14 Analysis Results (HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3) 700 Surface temperature of fuel cladding 600 Temperature of fuel cladding [K CL HL CR Psu Behavior is same as the previous case HPI+LPI+ACCx3. Cool down little bit faster because of the capacity of injection Time [sec] 14
15 Conclusion for the Location From the results, Severer in the order of Cold leg > Crossover > Hot leg Pressurizer surge pipe Different behavior depending on the location and the severest one is CL break Location of break could affect plant behavior 15
16 Analysis Combination [break points] Number of break points Piping Combination Case 1 Cold leg pipe (CL) 2 CL+HL(Same loop) CL+HL (Different loop) CL+CL No ECCS operate HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 No ECCS operate HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 No ECCS operate HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 16
17 Analysis Results (No ECCS operate) Location There is dependency Location exists in the dependency case of influence different loops Temperature of fuel cladding [K] Surface temperature of fuel cladding CL Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL+HL(Different loop) Time [sec] 0 Surface temperature of fuel cladding CL CL+CL Time [sec] Temperature of fuel cladding [K] Surface temperature of fuel cladding CL CL+HL(same loop) Same Behavior No dependency at breakpoints Time [sec] 17
18 Analysis Results (HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3) Surface temperature of fuel cladding It take more time to cool for the 2 points break case Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL CL+CL Time [sec] If all ECCS inject into RV, the core will cool faster Surface temperature of fuel cladding Surface temperature of fuel cladding Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL CL+HL(Different loop) Time {sec] Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL CL+HL(same loop) Time [sec] 18
19 Conclusion for the Break points From the result, 1 point break of CL and 2points break CL+CL are quite similar behavior, so NO dependency could exist in number of break points However, 2 points break of the combination of different loops, location dependency could exist There is no Dependency of Number of break points in the same position However, Location dependency could exist in the different position 19
20 Analysis Combination[Fracture area] Fracture area Piping Combination Case 100% Pressurizer surge pipe 200% Pressurizer surge pipe Cold leg pipe (CL) Cold leg pipe (CL) No ECCS operate HPI+LPI+ACCx3 HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 No ECCS operate HPI+LPI+ACCx3 HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3 20
21 Analysis Results (No ECCS operate) Surface temperature of fuel cladding Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL CL200% Timing of temperature rise are different However, In different of fracture area, temperature rise rate does not differ greatly Time [sec] 21
22 Analysis Results (HPI+LPI+ACCx3) 800 Surface temperature of fuel cladding 700 Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL CL200% The bigger fracture area size, the faster the clad temperature rise However, ECCS could operate earlier that core could be cooled down faster than smaller size of fracture area Time [sec] 22
23 Analysis Results (HPIx2+LPIx2+ACCx3) Temperature of fuel cladding [K] CL CL200% Surface temperature of fuel cladding Same as ECCS injected case with single failure The bigger fracture area size, the faster the clad temperature rise However, ECCS could operate earlier that core could be cooled down faster than smaller size of fracture area Time [sec] 23
24 Conclusion for the Fracture area From the results The size of fracture area is different, the temperature rising point is different However, the temperature rise does not differ greatly regarding to the fracture area Even in all ECCS operate or the case considering single failure of ECCS, cooling speeds are not different greatly Rupture fracture area could affect plant behavior 24
25 Summary Conclusion Considering to define Success Criteria, the followings need to be discussed Location of break could affect plant behavior Cold leg break is the severest case. There could be no dependency of the number of break points in the same position Fracture area dependency need to be noted in considering success criteria. Future task In this presentation, primary piping ruptures are focused on, but consideration should also be given to the combinations with secondary piping such as steam generator tube. The technical knowledge on Success Criteria of core cooling should be summarized, and it should be applied to seismic PRA 25
