Vol. 2

This preliminary design report will summarize the latest

analytical results of a design study of a 1000 MWT sodium cooled

steam generator. This particular portion of the design study con-

cerns itself with the structural integrity of the unit; functional

considerations are not included in this section of the report.

The report is basically narrative in accordance with Paragraph

6.1.2.1 of contract #AT(11-1)-1280, Appendix C. Pg. 5, between the

Babcock & Wilcox Co, and the A.E.G. The report includes index pages

of the detailed calculations prepared by the B&W Co, The bulk of the

detailed calculations have been omitted but concise summaries of the

analytical conclusions reached to date, including pertinent assiimp-

tions and methods of solution will be given. Those portions of the

analysis that are presently not completed will be mentioned.

A Syip^yy of the Aiialytic_a..L...Res.TAl.ts.f Steam Generator

2.1 A.S.M.E, Code Calculations

All the pressure parts, including heads, shells, and flanges were

sized using the rules set forth in Section VIII of the A.S.M.E. Code,

with the following exceptions'.

a) Reinforcement of openings in the circumferential plane -

The area of reinforcement supplied in the shell is figured

using Para, N. 452 (b) of Section III of the A.S.M.E. Code.

This requires us to replace only 50^ of the area removed in

the circumferential plane, predicated on the fact that the

longitudinal pressure stress is only 50^ of the

1
Vol, 2

circumferential pressure stress. This is common practice for

large vessels with imny penetrations around the circumference.

b) Flapge Bolts - The bolts were sized using code case 1273N-7 of

the A.S.M.E. Nuclear Code Cases. This allows us to go to I/3

yield at temperature of 800F for the bolt stress,

c) Tubesheets - There is no provision in Section VIII of the

A.S.M.E. Code for the design of tubesheets. The tubesheets were

sized by the methods outlined in "Standards of Tubular Exchanger

Manufacturers Association," better known as "TEMA." This is

standard practice.

d) Allocable Stresses - The main containment shells and heads for

the sodium-heated steam generator are designed to meet the

following conditions.

1. For the sodium environment and possible sodium-water reaction

the outer shells are designed for:

1. Pressure 200 psi

2, Temperature 900°F

Since this pressure is for an emergency short time condition

creep will not be considered as a factor. The allowable stress

is from A.S.M.E. Sect, VIII at temperature.

2, The shells were also reviewed for the operating condition and

for the effects of creep for a 30 year life and sodium

environment. For this the allowable is 10% of Sect. VIII

allowable at the greatest temperature in the area under

consideration,

2.2 Weights

2
Vol, 2

The weight of the unit dry, no podium is 1,064,391#, The weight

of the unit wet and with sodium to the normal operating level is

1,300,000# and the weight of the sodium itself when the unit is

at normal operating .level is 235,609#o

2.3 Inner Liner

The inner liner was sized using Section VIII of the A.S.M.E,

Code wi,th the pressure equal to 20 psi @ 650°F, the static head

of sodium, the operating pressure being equalized across both

sides of the liner.

2.4 Sjism^;is

a) Boiler Supports - Boiler supports are composed ofs

1) The coil support bars with a maximum stress of 4850 psi

vs. an allowable stress of 5068 psi @ 1014°F. (2-1/4

Croloy)

2) The hanger bars with a maximum stress of 2512 psi vs.

an allowable stress of 3240 psi @ 1050°F, (2-1/4 Croloy)

3) The main boiler support beams with a maximum stress of

5153 psi vs. an allowable stress of 8540 psi @ 1050°F,

(Type 316 stainless steel).

4) The boiler support shroud with a maximum stress of 469I

psi vso an allowable stress of 9800 psi @ 1000°F. (Type

316 stainless steel).

5) The boiler support rings with a maximum stress of 4216 psi

vs. an allowable stress of 5460 psi @ lOOO^F. (Type 316

stainless steel).

3
Vol, 2

b) Superheater supports - The Type 316 stainless steel superheater

supports are composed of:

1) The coil support bars with a maximum stress of 3809 _psi vs.

an allowable stress of 6216 psi @ 1140''F.

2) The hanger bars with a maximum stress of 1395 psi vs. an

allowable stress of 6216 psi @ 1140°F,

3) The main superheater support Ipeams with a maximum stress

of 1806 psi vs, an allowable stress of 6216 psi ® 1140*'F.

4) The superheater support shroud with a maximum stress of

3484 psi vs. an allowable stress of 4760 psi @ 1200°F.

5) The superheater support rings with a maximum stress of

550 psi vs. an allowable stress of 5460 psi @ 1000°F,

2.5 Vibration

a) Tubes - The general operation of this unit in conjunction

with the turbines, piimps and other accessories could produce

vibrations throughout the system. The characteristics of this

system could produce vibrations of 30 or 60 cycles or some

multiple of these amounts. Every attempt was made to keep

the tube natural frequencies away from these excitation

frequencies. In general this was done with the use of

vibration snubbers or tie offs.

In the case of the helical wound portions of the tube

banks, concern was given for the effect of the NA flow velocity

over the tubes. Eddy frequencies based on the NA velocity

were computed and care was taken to assure that the tube

natural frequencies differed by at least 50% from the forcing

4
Vol, 2
eddy frequencies.

It is also necessary to protect the generator from

resonant frequencies during shipping (should the tubular

components be shipped by rail). The inherent natural

frequency of a rail system is considered to be from 3 to

5 cycles per second. If the natural frequency of the tubes

should fall in this range and the travel distance is great,

there is a possibility of fatigue damage to the tubes. To

avoid these limitations, all the natural frequencies of the

tubes were kept above 34 C.P.S.

b) The same considerations given to the design of the tubes was

exercised on any other components for which vibration could

possibly pose a problem.

2.6 Piping Flexibility

The stresses in the external piping from the boiler tube-

sheets to the superheater tubesheets has been computed using the

B&W Company's "Piping Flexibility Program." This is a sophisti-

cated program that, given the piping size, configuration, material,

temperature growth, degree of fixity, etc., will compute stresses

at all pertinent points in the system. Using this program, the

maximum stress obtained was 7474 psi vs. an allowable stress of

15,000 psi @ 750°F for the 2-1/4 Croloy section and 7400 psi vs.

an allowable stress of 16,900 psi @ 750°F for Type 316 SS,

2.7 Alj,owable Forces & Moments

The sodium inlets and outlets were checked for the maximum

forces and moments which could be applied through the connecting

piping to see if the heads to which the inlets and outlets are

5
Vol, 2

connected are satisfactory stresswise. The stress levels are

satisfactory.

2.8 Stresses in tubes di^e to thermal growth and dead weight

Again the B&W Co. "Piping Flexibility Program" is utilized to

obtain stresses due to thermal growth restraint. Allowable

stresses were evaluated by the stress range value S A for

expansion stresses from the American Standard Code for

Pressure Piping Section 6. Para. 622, Stresses due to dead

weight and pressure were evaluated fnom simple state equations

and the stresses were evaluated by the allowable stress S H

(allowable stress in hot position) from the above mentioned

code. Some sample stresses are given on page 74 and 75.

2.9 Stresses in boilerand superheater helioa.1 coils due to deadload

The helical coils are free to grow radially and longitudi-

nally, thereby not inducing significant restraint due to thermal

growth. However, they must span between supports and support

their own weight. Calculations are available on the stresses

due to dead weight & pressure and for the boiler, the maximum

dead weight & pressure stress is 3351 psi vs. an allowable of

9170 psi @ gOCF. For the stiperheater coils, the maximum dead

weight & pressure stress is 3869 psi vs, an allowable of 7280 psi

@ 1100°F.

2.10 Stresses in the Superheater Outer Shroud

Shroud stresses are computed using elementary statics for this

particular shroud, the maximum stress is 1077 psi @ 1200OF.


vs, an allowable of 4760 psi.
2.11 Sodixim By-Pass System

Calculations were made on the sodiijim by-pass pipe to insure t h a t


Vol, 2

buckling under 200 p.s.i, external pressure would not take place

in the event of a sodium-water reaction. The critical buckling

pressure is 308 p.s.i, @ 12Q0°F which is well above 200 p.s.i.

The support skirt was examined for dead load, wind load, and

seismic load. Due to the large diameter and cross sectional

area of the support skirt, the section modulus and compressive

area available in the skirt resulted in very low stress levels.

Vol. 2

2,13 Steady State Primary Plus Secondary Stress Calculations

The items listed below (items 6a thru 6h) have been examined for

steady state stresses. All the items, except for the flanges and

the sodium outlet nozzle have been examined using classical

discontinuity methods, A discontinuity analysis of a particular

configuration such as the sodium inlet nozzle consists of the follow-

ing general steps:

1. Describe the configuration in terms of a finite difference

gridwork,

2. Expose the configuration to thermal heating identical to what

would be expected during normal operation of the unit, using

the B&W Company's temperature program. Run this program

until a "steady state" thermal condition has been reached.

3. "Break" the configuration up into elementary shapes such as

cylinders, rings, etc, and allow these shapes to deform freely

under the action of the previously determined temperatures.

4. Describe the physical characteristics of each of the above

elements (including their free thermal motions computed in

the above step and the pressure loads on each element) to the

B&W Company Interaction Program. Run this program and determine

the redundant forces and moments necessary for compatibility

between each of the elements. This program also computes the

stresses due to the redundants.

5. For each element, combine the redundant stresses with the static

membrane stresses and any previously determined stresses exist-

ing in the free body.

8
Vol, 2
6. Compare these stresses to the allowable steady state stresses.

The status of the steady state calculations for the following

items is given below!

6a. Sodium Inlet Nozzle

The steady state analysis has been completed for this

nozzle. The design of this nozzle has proven most difficult

due to the temperatures involved (l,140°F inlet sodium) and

the dissimilar weld (2-1/4 Croloy to Type 316 S,S.) in the

thermal sleeves. The design goal for acceptable steady state

stress intensity is 3 X Sa (See Item 12 Allowable Stress

Intensities) Basis for Allowable Stresses,

The worst stress intensity is 31,109 psi at the inside

surface of the dissimilar weld area (Croloy Side) in the

thermal sleeve (or attachment of header to shell). The

allowable stress for this area is 29,000 psi. However, this

allowable stress is a primary plus secondary stress intensity

and our stress intensity is completely secondary. Therefore,

with the small primary pressure acting, B&W feels justified

in exceeding the allowable by the small {l%) amount.

6b. Superheater Inl^et Tubesheet

The four tjrpes of Tubesheets and Headers are calculated

in the same manner, A calculation showing this method for the

steady state condition on tne superheater inlet header and

tubesheet follows. All other tubesheets and headers will be

done in like manner and only the results or conclusion will be

stated.

9
Discussion of Problem:

This tubesheet was run on the B&W Company "Temperature

Distribution Program #030" u n t i l a steady s t a t e condition

was reached for the normal operating cc?ndition of 750 F

steam temperature in the header, A p l o t of the temperature

pattern obtained is shown on Page 13 of the analysis. Having

obtained the temperature p a t t e r n , the tubesheet-header-skirt-

s h e l l complex i s then "broken up" into a s e r i e s of elemental

shapes ( r i n g s , short cylinders, e t c . ) as shown on Page 1^.

These elements are then allowed to deform freely under the

action of temperature. The "free body" motions are obtained

from e i t h e r well-known c l a s s i c a l formulas for those elements

with simple temperature gradients ( i . e . : r a d i a l or longitudinal

temperature gradients) or through the use of a series of

programs available to the B&W Company which can calculate

these motions in elements with complex temperature p a t t e r n s .

The next step i s to describe each element's geometrical

c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s , (radius, thickness, e t c . ) , material,

free body temperature motions and pressure loading to the

BW Company's interaction Program #90060. This program

t i e s a l l the elements together in sequential order and solves

for redundant moments and forces necessary to insure

compatibility between adjacent elements throughout the

complex. From these redundant forces and moments, the

program goes on to calculate the redundant s t r e s s e s at

various pertinent l o c a t i o n s .

10
Now these redundant stresses do not include the

basic membrane stresses due to pressure (membrane stresses

being the axial and circumferential pressure stresses

computed by ES & ES respectively). The redundant stresses


2t t
are set up by those forces and moments necessary to insure

compatibility within the complex. The membrane stresses

are known as primary stresses and the redundant stresses

are known as secondary stresses. On Pages 15 through 19-2

are printouts of Program #90060 showing the redtmdant

stresses at the inside and outside of each element (Page 12

shows these locations pictorially), Penciled in on these

printouts are the membrane stresses at these same locations.

They are then combined algebraically to obtain the maximum

stress intensities given on Page } ^ of this report. The

worst steady state primary and secondary stress Intensity

of the superheater inlet header is 40,537 psi which is

below the allowable value of 47,000 psi @ 760 F.

6c. Bpiler Outlet Tubesheet

The boiler outlet tubesheet and headers are practically

isothermal at steady state and there are no significant thermal

stresses in this system.

No steady state discontinuity has been perfdrmed on the

flanges since they are basically Isothermal at steady state and

a discontinuity analysis would not give stresses as severe as a

Standard ASME Section VIII Flange Analysis. This analysis gives

us a maximum stress of 13^839 psi vs. this allowable stress of

U,000 psi @ 900°F,

6e. Support Skirt

The maximum stress Intensity obtained for steady state

calculation on this item was 6,254 psi vs. an allowable of

3(13,000) 39,000 psi <i a temperature of 4.83°F. This stress

occiors at the inside surface 1.5625" below the ring on the skirt,

at the weld.

6f. Sodium Outlet Nozzle

Due to a unique feature of design of the sodium outlet

nozzle, both a steady state and a transient discontinuity

analysis of this nozzle is completely unnecessary. The design

of this nozzle calls for the inner sodium by-pass tube to extend

into and past this nozzle. There is an annulus between the

outside of the tube and the inside of the nozzle which allows

a constant stream of cool (650°F) sodium to flow past the

nozzle during all steady state and transient operations. By

using the most conservative methods of analysis, our calculations

20
Vol. 2

show that the flowing sodium in the annulus transports the

heat from the tube past the nozzle, thereby leaving the nozzle

nearly isothermal while the unit is operating, and removing the

necessity for a discontinuity analysis.

2.14 Thermal Transients

Thermal transient discontinuity analyses basically follow the rules

for steady state discontinuities outlined in steps 1 thru 6 of

Section 2.13 of this report. The differences are that for a

transient analysis, the whole procedure is followed for a sequence

of times during the transient. Using sound engineering judgment,

it is possible to pick the times during the transient when the

stress intensities at certain critical locations are either at a

maximum or at a minimum. Once these maximum and minimum stress

intensities are found, we can obtain the alternating components

of stress which contribute to fatigue damage. The cumulative

damage from all the transients are combined using Miner's Hypothesis.

Now if a component is exposed to little or no temperature excursions

during the various operating and emergency transients, or if the

temperature excursion is border line significant but the number of

cycles of the transient is less than 100, it is obvious that a

transient evaluation is unnecessary. Based on this statement, we

can conclude that the flanges. support skirt, and sodium outlet

nozzle do not require any transient evaluation.

The following items do require some transient evaluation:

a. Superheater Outlet Header.

b. Superheater Inlet Header.

c. Boiler Outlet Header.

d. Boiler Inlet Header.

e. Sodium Inlet Nozzle.

f. Sodium Outlet Nozzle.

TEMPERATURE TRANSIENTS

The steam generator being designed under this Contract will be

subjected to transient conditions. These conditions exist in both the

sodium side and the water side of this unit.

The following is a list of transients to be analyzed. On the attached

sheets are temperature vs. time plots for various transients. On each

plot is a temperature history for the sodium, inlet and outlet, and the

boiler and superheater inlets and outlets.

Transient No. 1. - Cold Start-up - Number of Cycles - 100

Cold Condition Temperature - 350F

Final Sodium Inlet Temperature - II40F

Final Superheater Outlet Temperature - IO5OF

Time Required - 48 hours

The reverse of this transient will also exist, that is a normal

shut-down for 1000 cycles.

Transient No. 2 - Normal Sodium Temperatxxre Fluctuations - Number of Cycles

The inlet sodium temperature varies between 1135F and II40F, a 5F

difference. This small fluctuation is too small to prevent any serious

temperature effects on the boiler. No sketch is attached.

Transient No. 3 - Normal Power Increase - Number of Cycles - 1000

Sodium Inlet - 1070F to II40F in 15 minutes

Sodium Outlet - 494F to 644F in 15 minutes

Feedwater Inlet 370F to 530F in 15 minutes

Superheater Outlet ~ Temperature fluctuates + 30F around a constant

superheat temperature of IO5OF.

25
Vol. 2

Transient No. 4 - Normal Power Decrease ~ Number of Cycles - 1000

Sodium Inlet ~ 1140F to 1070F in 15 minutes

Sodium Outlet - 644F to 494? in 15 minutes

Feedwater Inlet - 530F to 370F in 15 minutes

Superheater Outlet ~ Temperature fluctuates + 30F around a constant

superheat temperature of 1050F.

Transient No. 5 - Fast Power Change - Number of Cycles - 25

This transient as shown on the attached sketch starts at any operating

point from 20^ to 100^ load. A + 20/^ of full load/minute in one minute

transient is imposed on the boiler. The plot shows the temperature changes

at 80^ load. The changes in fluid temperatures will be the same for any

load, but the beginning and ending temperatixres will vary.

Transient No. 6 - Step Change in Power Level - Number of Cycles - 25

This transient can start at any operating point and consists of a + 10^

of full load change in the fluids.

Change in Sodium Inlet Temperature - ± 9F

Change in Sodium Outlet Temperature - + 15F

Change in Feedwater Inlet - + 16F

Chage in Superheater Outlet - + 15F

No sketch for this transient is attached.

Transient No. 7 - Primary Sodium Pump Stops - Secondary sodium flow to generator

continues - Number of Cycles - 2 5

The water will continue to flow and remove heat from the sodium until

an equilibrium temperature of 650F is reached. All temperatures, except

the boiler inlet temperature will approach 650F, The boiler inlet tempera-

ture will level off at 370F.

26
Vol. 2
Transient Np. 8 - Sodium Flow Stops - Feedwater flow continues. Number of

Cycles - 25

This transient is similar to Transient Number 7 as far as temperature

transients are concerned.

Transient No. 9 - Feedwater Flow Stops - Sodixm flow continues - Number of

Cycles - 25

The boiler fluid temperatures will approach the 1140F equilibrium

temperature. This is based on the assumption that the sodium by-pass fails

to operate and all flow goes over the boiler tubes. Therefore, the steam

and water temperatures approach 1140F at a faster rate than normal. The

feedwater temperature goes from 530F to 1140F in one hour.

Transient No. 10 - Sodium Excursion - Number of Cycles - 10,000

The boiler load will drop from full load to zero load in 15 minutes.

Boiler will be held at zero load temperatures until it can either be

returned to full power or taken off the line.

2.15 Tube Analysis at the Sodium Level

When a tube passes from an exterior argon atmosphere into a

liquid sodium atmosphere, there is a sharp "Line of Demarcation"

where the heat transfer coefficients go from a low value for argon

to a high value for sodium. This sets up discontinuity stresses

at this line. Furthermore, the liquid sodium level will constant-

ly be changing by some small amount, resulting in an alternating

stress in the tubes at this level. Although the stresses at this

level are not particularly severe, it must be assumed that the

number of cycles of this stress to which the tube will be exposed

will be large. An analysis for this condition has been prepared

and the results show that the tube stresses are acceptable.

37
Vol. 2

3.0 Conclusions

Stresses have consistently been held at levels acceptable to

the B&W Company for the steady-state and transient analysis as

covered in the body of the report. Natural frequencies are within

bounds set up as acceptable. Conaiderable attention has been given

to the selection of allowable working stresses. As of this report,

the B&W Company feels that the structural integrity of the unit

has been confirmed and the design goal of a 30 year life will be

met by the unit.

5M MAIERIALSl.

To achieve the objective of economical nuclear power the

designer of any steam generator must select and utilize the

materials of construction as economically as possible. This

means using the materials to as close to the safe use limits

as possible.

It is very important to know the effect of the sodium

environment and 30 year design life on the mechanical properties

to set allowable stresses for the steam generator. Because of

the change in material properties the allowable stresses listed

in the ASME Code, Section VIII are not necessarily conservative.

A study was begun on the effect of the 30 year design life

and sodium environment on the mechanical properties and the

allowable stresses for Groloy 2 T and Type 316 Stainless Steel.

The design work on the Full Size Steam Generator was begun

concurrently with the above study, so tentative design stresses,

equal to 70^ of the ASME Code values were assumed^

Groloy 2i material was selected for the lower temperature

portion of the steam generator because of its superior strength

properties up to lOSOF^ its resistance to gross corrosion in both

sodium and water, and its low cost. At temperatures above the

use limit for Groloy 24, Type 316 Stainless Steel was selected

because of its superior strength at elevated temperatures«

4A
Vol. 2

From the literature and current test programs data was

collected, analyzed and plotted to determine the design allowable

stress curves shown on Figures 5-1 and 5-2, Figure 5-1 for Type 316

stainless steel shows three c-urvess

1. The 1962 ASME Boiler Code, Section VIII allowable stresses

2. Developed allowable stresses (these include only the extend

life criteria. The effect of sodium environment on the

mechanical properties have not been determined.)

3. 10% of the 1962 ASME Boiler Code, Section VIII allowable

stresses.

Figure 5-2 for 2-1/4 Cr~lMo alloy steel shows three curvess

1. The 1962 ASME Boiler Code, Section VIII allowable stresses.

2. Developed allowable stresses for extended life and a sodium

environment.

3. 10% of the 1962 ASME Boiler Code, Section VIII allowable

stresses.

A full explanation of the effect of sodium environment and

extended life on the mechanical properties and how these effect

the design allowable stresses is contained in a topical report,

B&W 67-3.

Allowable Stress Levels.

Main Containment Shells and Heads (Design)

Designed for sodixun environment and possible sodium~water

reaction fori

a) Pressure = 200 psi

b) Temperature = 900 F.

This pressiire is for an emergency short time condition;

therefore creep and longevity factors are not considered. The

allowable stress is from A.S.M.E. Section VIII, Unfired Pressure

Vessels at temperatxire.

Maj,n Containment Shei^ls and Heads (Oj^ratlng)

Designed for sodium environment and for the effects of creep

for a 30 year life. For this the allowable is 70?^ of the Section

VIII allowable for temperat\ires above 800°F. for the 2-1/4 Croloy

material. Operating pressure is 20 psi. The additional pressure

on the bottom head is due to the sodium weight.

Drum Liner and Head Liner (Operating)

Designed for the operating temperature and a pressure due to

the static head of sodium. The operating and emergency pressure is

balanced across the inside and outside with only the sodium weight

affecting the plate. Section VIII Code allowable at temperature.

Drum Liner and Head Liner (Design)

Designed to the emergency condition where the sodium temperature

might increase to 1140°F. For this the allowable is 70^ of Section

VIII code allowable at temperature. The pressure decreases due to

density change in sodium.

90
Vol. 2

Designed by A.S.M.E, Rules for Bolted Flange Connections as

calculated by the Taylor—Forge Analysis. A.S.M.E. Section VIII

Code Allowables.

6. Flange Bolts.

The flanges are to be uninsulated or partially insulated

to maintain the operating temperature of the bolts at 800°F or

less.

The allowable stress in the bolts is then based on the Nuclear

Code Case Interpretation 1273 N-7. These stresses must not exceed

1/3 of yield strength at temperature.

Yield for SA 193 B 14 material is 105,000 psi.

Allowable stress at 800F = 27,700 psi.

'7» Headers. Boiler Inlet, Boiler Outlet, S.H. Inlet & S.H. Outlet.

a) The shells, hemispherical heads and thermal sleeves are

designed in accordance with Section VIII, for code

allowable at temperature.

b) The tube sheets are designed by methods outlined in

"Standards for Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers

Association (TEMA)".

8. Boiler Bundle Hanger Bars & Pins.

The design allowable stress for the 2^ material is 3,240 psi.

The basis for choosing 3,240 psi is in consideration of long time

creep and short time emergency conditions.

The long time operation is based on a temperature of 1050°F.

The allowable stress from the A.S.M.E. Section VIII is 5,900 psi.

91
Vol. 2

This is reduced, for the environment and extended operation, by 30%

which gives 4-, 060 psi.

The short time (say 6 hours) emergency is based on 114.0F. The

allowable stress for this is 324-0 psi.


S
Allowable, Bending = 3240 psi
S S

Allowable, Shear = 1620, Based on •§• Bending

Oojl STOpoyt Bar.

The allowable stress in the 2^ Croloy Coil Support Bars in

tension will be based on the operating temperature of 1014.°F, which

from the A.S.M.E. Section VIII, gives an allowable stress of 7,240

psi. In considering the long time effect of creep and decarburization

of the 2-i- Croloy in a sodiiom environment it was decided to reduce the

code value by 30^ which then gives a design allowable stress of

5068 psi.

Boiler Bundle Support Beams. Pins. Rods, Etc.

The design stress will be 8540 psi. The basis for choosing

8540 psi is creep and service. The creep consideration is based on

the operating temperature of 1050°F. The allowable stress value

taken from the A.S.M.E, Section VIII is 12,200 psi. Because of the

sodium environment during creep the 12,200 is reduced by 30^, which

gives the value of 8540 psi.

The short time (say 6 hours) emergency condition is based on

a temperature of 1140°F. For this temperat-ure the Section VIII Code

gives an allowable stress of 8880 psi.

Since the short time emergency condition yields a higher stress

value than the normal operation, we will use the lower value, or

8540 psi as a design criteria.

Pins, Rod, Etc.

The design stress for the stainless steel in the superheater

section will be 6,216 psi. The basis for this stress is as follows;

The A.S.M.E. Section VIII, Unfired Pressure Vessels, allows 8880 psi

for a temperatxrre of 1140°F. Because of increased creep and carburi-

zation of the stainless steel in a sodium environment plus extended

service life, we will reduce the code allowable by 30^. This gives

a -value of (8800) (0.70) = 6,216 psi.


S
Allowable Stress B = 6,216 psi

Allowable Stress Shear = i ^B = 3,108 psi

Allowable Steady State Primary & Secondary Stress Intensities

The allowable values of steady state primary and secondary stress

intensities for Croloy 2-1/4 up to 700°F and Type 316 stainless steel

up to 800°F will be limited to 3 x Sm per the rules set forth in

Section III of the A.S.M.E. Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

The allowable value of steady state primary and secondary stress

intensities for Croloy 2-1/4 beyond 700°F and Type 316 stainless steel

beyond 800°F will be based on a Code case (see appendix "C" of the

minutes of a meeting on I/6/64 by the A.S.M.E. Subcommittee on

Nuclear Power) ruling made by the A.S.M.E. Subcommittee on Nuclear

Vessels.

The Code case inquiry states "Under what rules shall nuclear

vessels be constructed whose design temperatures exceed those for

which allowable stress values are given in Section III." Paragraphs

(5) and (7) of this Code case state ti->e following!

(5) Except as provided in paragraph (6) below, the allowable

value of primary-plus-secondary stress intensity (N-4.14,.4.) shall be

three times the allowable amplitude of fatigue stress at 10° cycles

for the metal temperature involved, as determined in (7) below.

(7) The design fatigue curves of Section III (Figs. N-4.15 (a)

and (b) are not applicable at temperatures above the limits of N-202

(a), and the curves of Figs. 1 and 2 of this Case shall be used in

their place. Values for temperatures intermediate between the curves

shown may be interpolated. The fatigue curve to be used shall be

that corresponding to the maximum metal temperature occurring d\a'ing

the cycle at the point on the vessel being analyzed.

In order to facilitate the selection of allowable stress

intensities for different materials @ various temj^ratures, a plot of

code values of 3 x Sm vs. temperature plus a plot of the data given

in the above mentioned ruling vs. temperature was prepared and is

shown on page 9A. Throughout our steady state analysis of the

various components of the steam generator, we have referred to this

plot for our allowable stress intensities levels. Note that the

strict interpretation of the Code case allowable primary and secondary

stress intensities for Type 316 stainless steel would allow us to use

values of 78,000 P.S.I. @ 800°F, 55,000 P.S.I. @ gOO'^F, etc. We do

not care to take advantage of this quirk in the curve. Rather, we

will predicate our allowable stress values on the dotted curve between

800°F and 1100°F.

13. Fatigue Analysis For Components Sub fleeted to Cyclic Loading

The fatigue life of any component will be determined using Figs. 1 and 2

of the publication mentioned In - 12 -.

Superheater Inner and Outer Shroud.

These stainless steel shrouds are designed at 1200°F with a code

allowable of 6800 psi reduced by 30^, which gives (6800) (0.7) = 4,760

psi, for environment and creep considerations.

The shroud hanger bar which is attahced to the head and will

be insulated from the source of heat and radiation is based on the

allowable for Zi Croloy at 1000°F. This is also reduced for

environmental reasons and gives (7800) (0.7) = 54.60 psi.

The bolts have been based on a temperature of 1050°F. They

are also in the head insulation and will not get the full effect of

radiation and heat. These stainless steel bolts have been based on

an allowable stress at 1050°F of 10,500 psl reduced by the 30^ for

environment which gives 7350 jsi.

Allowable %ending = 7350 psi

The following factors have been considered in obtaining these

results.

1. Shape factor of 0.85

2. Height Factor

3. Effective Piameter

The allowable safe compressive that can be imposed without

failure by wrinkling is expressed by the following;

allowable = 1.5 X 10^ (i) or 1/3 yield point.

200F to 1140F.

b. The sum of the dead load and longitudinal

pressure stresses must not exceed Sg (allow,

Vibration.

The operating characteristics of the system may produce

vibrations in the 30 and 60 cps range.

Based on this the lengths between vibration supports was set

to avoid these ranges«

The distance between supports was also varied to take advantage

of the effect of varied spacing on vibration damping,

"It has been experimentally determined that a relatively small

variation in support plate spacing can have a large effect on

vibration damping," This is from a letter from R.C. Baird, Engineer

and Consultant to M.W, Peterson dated 5-20-1958,

The forced vibration of the tubes due to fluid flow has been

calculated by using tJie Von Karman effect.

tj = k (v)

The nattiral frequency 1 should differ from the forcing frequency

2 by at least 50$.

0 Reheater - Summary

The reheater was designed along the same general lines as the

steam generator.

8.1 ASME Calculations

a) The shells, heads, flange and nozzles were sized using

the rules of the ASME Section VIII with the exception of

the rectangular steam inlet and outlet headers.

b) Tubesheets and Headers - These headers were designed in

accordance with the Babcock and Wilcox design paper

No. D-34462-0 "Allowable Working Pressures for Square and

Rectangular Headers.

c) Flange Bolts - These bolts were also, as in the case of the

steam generator, sized using code case 1273N-7 of the ASME

Nuclear Code Case.

d) Allowable Stresses - The main containment shells and heads

were designed to meet the following conditions:

1. Pressure - 200 psi

2. Temperature - Maximum 1050F (UPPER SECTION)

- Minimum 900F (LOWER SECTION)

2 Weights

Reheater unit dry = 533,300 #

Reheater unit (With Sodium) = 773,300 #

3 Inner Liner - The inner liner was sized using ASME Section VIII with

pressure equal to 19 psi @ 650°F, the static head of sodium, the

operating pressure being equalized across both sides of the liner.

102
Vol, 2

4 Supports - The reheater coil bimdle supports are composed ofs

a) The hanger bar with a maximum stress of 4j553 psi vs. an

allowable stress of 6,216 psi (Type 316 stainless steel).

b) The coil support bars and clamping bars with a maximum

stress of 4j986 psi vs. an allowable stress of 6,216 psi

(Type 316 stainless steel).

c) The support rods with a maximum stress of 4,263 psi vs. an

allowable stress of 6,216 psi (Type 316 stainless steel).

5 Vibration - The vibration analysis and criteria is the same as for

the steam generator.

6 Stresses in Tubes Due to Thermal Growth an^ Dead Weight - Again

done in similar manner to the steam generator by using the B&W Company

Flexibility Program and simple state equations. Stresses and allowables

are given in the tabulations that follow.

'7 Support Skirt - The support skirt is comparable in size to the steam

generator and again the section modulus and compressive area in the

skirt results in very low stress levels.
