DESCRIPTION Background Flow-induced vibrations caused by vortex shedding resulting from rapid area change, buffeting due to random flow turbulence, fluid structures interaction instability, leakage excitation, steady operation of positive displacement …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue apparently originated as a DOR proposal and was discussed in SECY-80-325. [1] The issue as previously evaluated [2] is whether periodic replacement of the squib charges and circuit checks of the traveling …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background A memorandum [1] from AEOD to NRR dated May 23, 1980 drew attention to the generic issue of BWR jet pump integrity. The concern that motivated the AEOD memo was a February 1980 jet pump failure at Dresden Unit 3, together …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This is an ACRS concern raised by the Subcommittee on TMI-2 Implications in October 1979. This issue centers around the possibility of a breach in the reactor coolant system boundary caused by the failure of nonsafety …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Cracking has occurred in PWR piping systems as a result of stress corrosion, vibratory and thermal fatigue, and dynamic loading. However, as of February 1981, no cracking had been experienced in the primary system piping …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue addressed the potential problem of radiation embrittlement of reactor vessel support structures (RVSS). It was originally identified as a Candidate USI in NUREG-0705 [1] where it was recommended for further …
1
DESCRIPTION This issue involves a potential deficiency in the ability to control leakage past the main steam isolation valves (MSIV) in BWR plants. Requirements for MSIV leakage control systems outlined in Regulatory Guide 1.96 [1] were developed as a …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background In the event of a LOCA in which offsite power remains available, the reactor operator may choose to shut down the emergency diesel generators shortly after the LOCA. If, after the diesels are shut down, offsite power is …
1
DESCRIPTION On November 10, 1979, an event occurred at the Oconee Power Station, Unit 3, that resulted in loss of power to a non-Class 1E 120-volt AC single-phase power panel that supplied power to the integrated control system (ICS) and the nonnuclear …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This concern was raised [1] because of the potential for a high-altitude nuclear weapon detonation causing a large electromagnetic pulse (EMP) which subsequently could induce large currents and voltages in electrical …
1
DESCRIPTION In a San Onofre Unit 1 Preliminary Notification issued in September 1980, it was reported that, during testing, the licensee had identified a problem with the design of the diesel generator sequencing circuitry. This problem occurred when a …
1
DESCRIPTION Pressurized water reactors are susceptible to certain types of hypothetical accidents that, under circumstances such as operation of the reactor beyond a critical time in its life, could result in failure of the pressure vessel as a result of …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Prior to 1981, the number of bolting-related incidents reported by licensees was on the increase. A large number of these were related to primary pressure boundary applications and major component support structures. As a …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was raised by AEOD [1] , [2] and involved isolation of the reactor coolant system charging and letdown system following a spurious safety injection transient at H. B. Robinson on January 29, 1981. Following the …
1
DESCRIPTION In AEOD/CO05, [1] AEOD identified potential safety problems concerning steam generator overfill due to control system failures and combined primary and secondary blowdown. As a result of discussions with the Commissioners and the EDO, NRR …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was initiated in response to an immediate action memorandum [1] issued by AEOD in September 1981 regarding desiccant contamination of instrument air lines. NRR responded to the AEOD memorandum by establishing a …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This proposed generic issue has its origin in a January 1981 event at Millstone Unit 2. [1] An operator inadvertently opened a 125V DC main feeder breaker, causing the loss of one of the two redundant emergency systems …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background On April 7, 1980, Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Units 1 and 2 experienced a significant event resulting from a loss of offsite power. Although both units were safely shut down, the analysis and evaluation of the event …
1
DESCRIPTION An AEOD memorandum [1] to NRR on July 15, 1980, identified the concern that some operating nuclear power plants do not have technical specifications or Administrative controls governing operational restrictions for Class 1E 120 VAC vital …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background In an AEOD memorandum [1] to NRR, it was concluded that the design of the Point Beach Nuclear Plant, Units 1 and 2, under certain conditions, allowed manual interconnection of redundant electrical load groups, thereby …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background In response to a 1967 ACRS concern relative to the potential of melting and subsequent disintegration of a portion of a fuel assembly due to inlet orifice flow blockage, GE submitted NEDO-10174 [1] in May 1970. As a …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background In August 1982, AEOD reviewed a number of LERs related to Class 1E safety related switchgear circuit breakers and found a high incidence of their failure to close on demand. A preliminary report was written and …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue was identified at an NRC Operating Reactor Events meeting on January 7, 1982, [1] and addressed fire protection system (FPS) actuations that resulted in adverse interactions with safety-related equipment at …
1
DESCRIPTION This issue was raised in November 1981 by the Materials Engineering Branch (MTEB), DE/NRR, and was based on the concern that NRC provides no control regulations or guides for bolting other than for the reactor vessel head. CONCLUSION In …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background Cracks were found in the normal make-up high pressure injection (MU/HPI) nozzles of several B&W plants following an inspection of the 8 B&W plants licensed to operate. These cracks appeared to be directly related to loose …
