RESPONSE

INTRODUCTION

A combined model of the ICS and the NSSS was developed to generate seismic responses and

acceleration response spectra (ARS) under Set B and Set C seismic conditions for piping attached

to the NSSS. Westinghouse supplied the model of the NSSS components which was included

to account for the interaction between the NSSS and the ICS. The coupled model was used

only to develop ARS for use in the seismic analyses of piping connected to the NSSS. The

actual design basis of the NSSS continues to be based on analyses previously performed by

Westinghouse. Westinghouse also confirmed that the existing NSSS design was adequate for the

Set B evaluation basis loads.

The NSSS components included in the coupled model for the ICS consists of the Reactor

Pressure Vessel (RPV), four loops of primary reactor coolant loop (RCL) piping (hot legs, cold

legs, and cross-over legs), the steam generator (SG), and the reactor coolant pump (RCP)

associated with each loop. The NSSS models for four loops consist of masses and mass

moments of inertia lumped at the nodal points of RPV, RCL piping, SG, and RCP, and

interconnected with elastic elements. The stiffness properties of the elastic elements are

represented by various 12 x 12 generalized stiffness matrices. The NSSS components are

supported on the ICS at the RCL attachment points shown in FSAR Figures 5.5-6 thru 5.5-13

in Attachment 1 of this enclosure. The following supports for each loop are included in the

NSSS models as elastic elements represented by a set of 6 x 6 generalized support stiffness

matrices.

a. SG lower support (SGLS)

b. SG upper support (SGUS)

c. Cross-over leg restraint SG side (XL SG Side)

d. Cross-over leg restraint RCP side (XL RCP Side)

e. RCP lower support (RCPLS)

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 3

f. RCP tie rods #1, #2, and #3

g. Feed water line (FWL)

h. Main steam line (MSL)

The dynamic model data for the NSSS components consists of the nodal geometry, lumped

masses, 12 x 12 RCL element stiffness matrices, and 6 x 6 RCL support stiffness matrices and

is obtained from Westinghouse Electric Corporation. In coupling the Unit 1 NSSS model to the

Unit 1 ICS stick model, the RCL attachment points are connected to the ICS model at the

appropriate elevations of the attachment points through rigid links. The details of the seismic

analysis model for the ICS are shown on FSAR Figures 3.7-8, 3.7-8A and 3.7-8B (For

convenience, see Attachment 1 of this enclosure). The dynamic model for the RPV is shown

in the FSAR Figure 3.7-8C (See Attachment 1). The development of the coupled model is

documented in WBN Calculations WCG-1-343 and WCG-1-344 (References 2 and 3). These

calculations were previously reviewed by the NRC and the conclusion was documented in

Reference 4.

1. GEOMETRY AND SKETCHES OF THE MODEL

Figures 1 thru 4 in Attachment 2 of this enclosure, show the analytical models used to

represent the NSSS components in the coupled model. Due to the presence of gaps and

tension-only tie rods at the NSSS supports, these supports exhibit nonlinear behavior under

dynamic loading conditions. However, the use of a complex nonlinear model is

impractical for the production of responses and ARS for design usage. Therefore, a

conservative linear model was used to develop ARS for the coupled model.

For the purpose of linear response analyses, four linearized NSSS analysis cases, each with

a unique set of linearized NSSS support stiffness, are used to bound the nonlinear support

behavior under various dynamic loading conditions. These four cases are designated as

NSSS Analysis Cases 1, 3, 5, and 6 (Reference 1). Specifically, for each NSSS analysis

Page 7: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 4

case, a specific set of NSSS supports with their specified orientations are activated for a

particular loading condition and a set of linear support stiffness is developed and provided

to represent the active supports. The active NSSS supports for each of the four loops for

the Analysis Cases 1, 3, 5, and 6 are shown respectively in Attachment 2 of this enclosure,

Figures 1 through 4 and in Tables A-1, A-2, A-3, and A-4. The geometry of the NSSS

components is tabulated in Attachment 2 Table A-5. Table A-6 in Attachment 2 tabulates

RCL support attachment points. Figure 5 shows SG and RCP support arrangement and

Figure 6 shows the crossover leg bumper support arrangement. Figures 7 thru 10 show

RCP tie rod and RPV support arrangement under each different NSSS Analysis cases.

FSAR Figures 5.2-9 and 5.2-11 in Attachment 1 of this enclosure, show respectively, the

lower and upper SG support finite element models used by Westinghouse in generating the

support stiffness matrices. The SG lower support model is also shown in FSAR Figure

5.2-9. The RCL support stiffness matrices are developed by Westinghouse and included

in Reference 1.

2. ENGINEERING DATA

a. Mass and Mass Moments of Inertia

The mass and mass moment of inertia for the NSSS components are listed in this

enclosure Attachment 2, Table A-7.

b. Damping Values

The damping values in terms of percent of critical damping for Set B analyses are

in accordance with the values specified in the NRC Regulatory Guide 1.61,

Revision 0, "Damping Values for Seismic Design of Nuclear Power Plants," and

WBN Design Criteria, WB-DC-20-24, "Dynamic Earthquake Analysis of

Category I Structures and Earth Embankments." The values for the operating

basis earthquake (OBE) and safe shutdown earthquake (SSE) for the structures,

equipment, components, and piping systems of the WBN Reactor Building used

for Set B analyses are listed as follows:

Damping (Percent of Critical Condition)

Item OBE SSE

Interior Concrete Structure 4 7

Concrete Shield Building 4 7

Containment Basemat Concrete 4 7

Steel Containment Vessel 2 4

Reactor Pressure Vessel 2 3

Steam Generator 2 3

Reactor Coolant Pump 2 3

Reactor Coolant Loop Piping 2 3

Reactor Coolant Loop Support 2 4

c. Spring

Each elastic support element which is shown as a spring element in the model is

actually a complex structure assemblage which can be represented by a 6 x 6

generalized support stiffness matrix obtained through substructure analysis. The

6 x 6 generalized support stiffness matrices are provided by Westinghouse via

Reference 1.

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSEPAGE 5

Page 9: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 6

d. Size and Location of the Gap

Gaps are provided in NSSS component support arrangements to enable the

virtually unrestrained thermal movement of the loops and the components during

plant operation. However, the support structures are of welded steel construction

and fabricated in such a way that while the supports permit unrestrained thermal

growth of the supported systems, the supports would provide restraints to the

vertical, lateral and rotational movement resulting from seismic and/or accident

conditions. This is accomplished by using (1) pin ended columns for vertical

support and (2) girders, bumper pedestals, hydraulic snubbers, and tie rods for

lateral support. The detailed description for the NSSS component supports is

provided in FSAR Figures 5.5-6 through 5.5-13 (See Attachment 1).

Under the OBE or SSE loading conditions (NSSS Analysis Cases 1, 3, 5 and 6),

due to the rapid motion of the earthquake excitation, the restraint function (via

the presence of the snubbers) of the support assemblage overrides the gap

function and, therefore, the support stiffness matrices provided by Westinghouse

can directly be applied in the seismic analysis.

e. Element Property for NSSS Components

Elastic elements are provided to interconnect the nodal points of RPV, RCL

piping, SG, and RCP for which masses and mass moments of inertia are lumped

at the nodal points. The stiffness properties of the elastic elements are

represented by 12 x 12 generalized stiffness matrices. These matrices are

generated by Westinghouse and are provided in Reference 1 for direct application

in seismic structural analysis.

Page 10: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 7

f. RCP Tie Rod

Three tie rods are provided for each RCP (See Attachment 1 for FSAR Figure

5.5-8). These tie rods are assumed to function in tension only. Therefore, for

postulated earthquake motion in each direction, the tie rods are assumed to be

ineffective in compression. Eventually, the lateral resistance of the tie-rod

assemblage is provided by that portion of the assemblage that experiences tensile

loads. Figures 7 thru 10 in Attachment 2 of this enclosure show the active tie

rods for Cases 1, 3, 5, and 6. The stiffness of the tie rod is provided by

Westinghouse by a set of 6 x 6 generalized support stiffness matrix.

3. MODELLING OF GAP AND ONE-WAY HANGERS

See response to Question 2.d. above.

4. LINEARIZATION OF NSSS SUPPORT STIFFNESS

A study has been performed by Westinghouse to investigate different NSSS analysis cases

and determine which one of the supports or tie rods will be active under a specific loading

condition. Based on the study results, an active support list table was developed by

Westinghouse and used by TVA in performing the seismic analysis. Examination of the

active support conditions specified in Attachment 2, Tables A-1 through A-4, show that

the active support conditions for the NSSS Analysis Cases 1 and 3 are complementary to

each other and are primarily for resisting horizontal seismic loads in the plant north-south

(NS) directions; similarly, the active support conditions for the NSSS Analysis Cases 5 and

6 are mutually complementary and are primarily for resisting loads in the plant east-west

(EW) direction. For the vertical response analyses, the NSSS Analysis Cases 5 and 6 are

also used.

Page 11: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 8

Since only a specific set of NSSS supports with their specified orientations are activated

for each different loading condition, a linear support stiffness can be developed.

Westinghouse provided these linear support stiffness via Reference 1 for the four NSSS

analysis cases which were eventually used in the seismic analysis.

5. EQUATIONS OF MOTION AND NUMERICAL ALGORITHM EMPLOYED

The request to discuss governing equations of motion and the validation of the numerical

algorithm used to solve those equations appears to be predicated on the assumption that

nonlinear methods of analyses were performed. The use of linearized stiffness properties

to represent the NSSS support conditions permits the coupled building/NSSS model to be

analyzed as a linear, elastic system using the same methodology as employed for the

seismic analyses of the other Category I structures for Watts Bar. The methods employed

to perform the seismic analyses of civil structures were reviewed and accepted by the NRC

during the audits documented in Reference 4. This acceptance is also noted on page 2 of

the RAI of October 11, 1994, which notes that "the object of the inspection was earthquake

design of civil structures." Since nonlinear methods were not employed in the analysis of

the NSSS, TVA does not consider it necessary to repeat the theoretical background of the

linear analysis methodology previously accepted by the NRC.

6. VALIDATION OF OVERALL MODEL

The development of linearized stiffness to represent the NSSS support conditions and the

use of linear analyses (explained further under Item 7) are commonly accepted techniques

routinely employed in the analysis of the Westinghouse NSSS.

Page 12: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 9

7. SUMMARY OF RESULTS

Both Set B and Set C seismic response analyses using the coupled model have been

performed for both the OBE and SSE conditions, and for the horizontal NS and EW, and

vertical ground motion inputs. Since, as described above in Section 4, different NSSS

analysis cases are required in order to simulate the actual NSSS support behavior, the

seismic response analyses for any individual case of Set B or Set C, OBE or SSE, and NS,

EW, or vertical input, are required to consider different NSSS analysis cases (NSSS

Analysis Cases 1, 3, 5 and 6) as applicable.

By limiting the analyses to considering only the primary NSSS analysis cases as described

above, the total number of analyses performed for Set B analyses is 12 (2 earthquake input

levels, OBE and SSE, x 3 directions of input x 2 primary NSSS analysis cases for each

direction); and the total number of analysis cases performed for Set C analyses is 48 (same

12 cases for Set B x 4 time history inputs per case).

A. SEISMIC ANALYSIS RESULTS FOR NSSS COMPONENTS

In the seismic analyses of the Reactor Building, the maximum response

parameters obtained for the NSSS components (RCL) from Set B and Set C

analyses for the cases consist of the following:

a. Maximum absolute accelerations;

b. Maximum displacements relative to the free-field ground.

To obtain the above maximum response parameters for the NSSS components, the

following steps are applied:

1. For each location and response direction on the NSSS, the maximum

values of the response parameters are obtained by taking the maximum

Page 13: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 10

value of the time history response for each analysis case.

2. For Set C analyses for which four time histories are used as the input, the

maximum values resulting from the four time history inputs are averaged.

For Set B analyses, this step does not apply.

3. Maximum values of the response parameters resulting from different

NSSS analysis cases are enveloped.

4. Maximum values of the co-directional response resulting from three

directions of ground motion input are combined using the square root of

the sum of the squares (SRSS) combination rule.

5. Maximum values of the same response parameters for four primary loops

are enveloped to obtain the final enveloped maximum value applicable for

the four loops.

The development of the final NSSS response ARS curves for each selected

location and spectrum damping value considered follows the following steps:

1. For each location and response direction in the NSSS, the ARS values are

computed from the absolute acceleration response time history obtained

from each analysis case.

2. For Set C analyses for which four time history inputs are used, the ARS

values resulting from the four time history inputs are averaged. For Set

B analyses, this step does not apply.

3. The ARS values resulting from different NSSS analysis cases are

enveloped.

Page 14: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSE February 2, 1995PAGE 11

4. The co-directional response ARS values resulting from three directions of

ground motion input are combined using the SRSS combination rule

applied to each spectral frequency.

5. The ARS at the corresponding locations of the four loops are enveloped

to obtain the enveloped ARS applicable for the four loops.

6. The enveloped ARS for each common location for four loops are

broadened by + 15% for Set B analyses, and + 10% for Set C analyses,

to obtain the final Set B and Set C ARS curves, respectively.

7. The final Set B and Set C ARS curves are enveloped to give the final Set

B-plus-C ARS curves.

Since the RCL attachment points (RCLA) are rigidly linked to the ICS at the

elevations of the attachments points, the maximum response parameters and the

response ARS at RCLA are the same as those obtained for the ICS at the

attachment point elevations.

B. APPLICATION OF SEISMIC ANALYSIS RESULTS FOR NSSS

COMPONENTS AND ICS QUALIFICATION

The evaluation basis Set B spectra at the ICS/NSSS interface locations obtained

using the coupled ICS and NSSS model have been evaluated by Westinghouse to

determine the potential impact on the qualification of the NSSS components.

Westinghouse's review indicates that the new spectra would have no adverse

impact on the design basis analysis (Set A) of the NSSS. Therefore, the critical

components stresses shown in FSAR Tables 5.2-15 through 5.2-21 (For your

convenience, see Attachment 1 of this enclosure) for Set A seismic input are not

exceeded and continue to be the basis for the design of the NSSS system.

Page 15: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

FSAR CHAPTER 3 RAI RESPONSEPAGE 12

February 2, 1995

The Set B and Set C spectra at various elevations in ICS were also generated for

ICS evaluation. The result of the evaluation for critical members in the concrete

structure are covered in FSAR Section 3.8.3.

QUESTION 5.c CONCERNS

"The applicant stated that since the personnel locks and hatches were initially designed with a

large margin for normal nonseismic loads (0.5 FY) and normal loads are usually limited to self

dead weight, load combinations involving OBE were considered to be upset load. This is the

reason why E and E' are considered to be the same. Another reason for the proposed increase

provided by the applicant is that assessment of load for the door is more accurate than usual

because of the nature of dead loads where no added loads from other sources, such as live loads

and pipe attachment loads, are applied, implying, that a lesser safety factor may be used. The

staff found that the applicnat's reasoning is not acceptable, since any conservative design should

accommodate OBE with increasing allowable stresses, thus, effectively reducing the design

margin. Moreover, the applicant's argument does not apply to the crane design (Tables 3.8.6-1

and 3.8.6-2). It is the staff's position that the allowable stress limit for the Category I

structures be equal to 0.67 FY when the load combination includes OBE, live and dead loads."

RESPONSE

The subject, Note (2), which provides the definition Of Earthquake Loading "E" as the larger

of OBE or SSE loads, appears in the following tables of FSAR Section 3. In these tables, the

allowable stresses for load combinations that include Earthquake Loads "E", are based on

increased basic code allowable (i.e., 0.9 FY for bending of structural components and 0.6 FY for

shear).

3.8E-1 Limiting Values of Allowable Stress

Except for FSAR Tables 3.8.6-1 and 3.8.6-2 discussed later, TVA will revise the tables to add

the load combinations with the OBE loading and limit the stress to the basic code allowables,

(i.e., 0.6 FY for Tension/Compression of structural components, or Ultimate/5 for mechanical

components, as may be applicable). The notes will be revised to individually define the

earthquake loads for OBE and SSE. Proposed FSAR changes of the above tables are provided

in Enclosure 2 of this letter.

The loads, their combinations and corresponding allowables in FSAR Tables 3.8.6-1 and 3.8.6-2

are for Seismic Category I(L) Polar Cranes and Auxiliary Building bridge cranes, respectively.

NUREG-0554 "Single Failure Proof Cranes for Nuclear Power Plants" requires evaluation of

the crane components under the SSE loading only, in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.29,

"Seismic Design Classification," Regulatory Position 2.

ASME NOG-1-1989 "Rules for Construction of Overhead and Gantry Cranes (Top Running

Bridge, Multiple Girder)," combines both OBE and SSE loads in the same load combinations

of "Extreme Environmental Loads" and assigns the same increased allowables (i.e., 0.9 FY for

bending, etc.) for this combination. Therefore, the data presented in Tables 3.8.6-1 and 3.8.6-2

is correct and the tables will be revised to indicate only SSE loads.

FSAR CHAPTER 3, AMENDMENT 79

PROPOSED FSAR REVISIONS

Page 72: Forwards response to NRC RAI dtd 941011 re FSAR Chapter 3

WBNP-79

The uplift on the equipment from the LOCA combined with the SSE controlled thedesign of the base slab.

Minimum steel requirements of 0.65 square inches per foot (minimum steel ratioof 0.0015 in each face and in both vertical and horizontal directions)

controlled the inside face vertical steel requirements throughout the shell andthe inside face horizontal steel requirements above grade.

The SSE in load combination 8 controlled the design of the outside face

vertical reinforcement at the base of the cylinder wall. Due to earth and

hydrostatic pressure, outside face horizontal reinforcement requirements were

greatest 16 feet above the base of the cylinder wall at elevation 713.0.

The construction loading controlled the reinforcement design in the dome and

the upper portion of the cylinder wall.

The SSE produced a maximum tangential shear stress at the base of the wall of189.7 psi which was 76.8% of the allowable.

The effects of repeated reactor shutdowns and startups during the plant's life

will not degrade the above margins of safety because the Shield Building is

minimally affected by these operations. The only effects from normaloperations are from interior temperature changes which are insignificant

compared to normal exterior temperature variations.

Equipment Hatch Doors and Sleeves

Allowable stresses for all load combinations used for the various parts aregiven in Table 3.8.1-2. For normal load conditions, the allowable stressesprovide safety factors of 1.67 (FY/0.6 F.) to 1 on yield for structural parts

and 5 to 1 on ultimate for mechanical parts. For limiting conditio such as

.n Qperating Basis Earthquatlce (OBE) or a Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE),stresses do not exceed 0.9 yield.

3.8.1.6 Materials. Quality Control and Special Construction Techniques

General

The principal materials used in the construction of the Shield Building baseslab, wall, and dome were concrete and reinforcing steel. Concrete was placed,

inspected, and tested based upon the requirements in TVA General ConstructionSpecification No. G-2 for Plain and Reinforced Concrete and to TVA QCP-2.2

Concrete Placement and Documentation (until 1975) and TVA WBN-QCP-2.02 (1975and after). Steel is used for the structural parts of the equipment hatchdoors and sleeves with rubber used for the seals.

3.8.1.6.1 Materials

Concrete

Cement conformed to ASTM Specification C150-72 Type I. The guaranteed 28-day

mortar strength was 502.5 psi with a guaranteed standard deviation of 395 psiand a guaranteed maximum tricalcium aluminate content of 9.5%.

Aggregates conformed to ASTM Specification C-33-71a and were manufactured of

crushed limestone.3.8-11

3.8.3.5.10 Personnel Access Doors in Crane Wall

Allowable stresses for noncollapsible members for load combinations used forthe various parts are given in Table 3.8.3-3. Normal load conditions areshown for mechanical members only. Loads on structural members during normalconditions are negligible and therefore are not shown on Table 3.8.3-3. Fornormal load conditions, factors of safety for mechanical parts are 5 to 1 onultimate. For limiting conditions such as an GBE -or SSE for mochanical and

c members and a pipe rupture accident for ct-rctural mombros only,stresses do not exceed 0.9 yield. Pipe ruptur accidcnts apply to g-tr"'turalmembers only, since forces from jets and wissiles are taken by the ructuralframe

For collapsible members during a pipe rupture accident, stresses exceed yieldand members are plastically deformed. Plastic deformation of energy absorbingmembers does not affect the sealing integrity of the doors.

3.8.3.5.11 Seals Between Upper and Lower Compartments

Under normal and earthquake conditions, there are no loads on the seals.However, the seals are subject to radiation, as outlined previously, duringnormal operating conditions. The seal has been tested under accidentpressures and temperatures after undergoing heat aging to 40 years equivalentage, and irradiation to 40 years normal operation plus accident integrateddoses in order to qualify it for the life of the plant.

Earthquake loads used in design of the hoist supports and enclosure were the

loads due to accelerations at the hoist platform, elevation 773.0, produced bya SSE. These accelerations were determined by dynamic analysis of the

Auxiliary Building structure. These accelerations were used as static loadsfor determining component and member sizes. After establishing the component

and member sizes, a dynamic analysis, using appropriate response spectra, wasmade of the door, embedded frame, door track, and hoisting unit enclosure to

determine that allowable stresses had not been exceeded.

Manways in the (RHR) Sump Valve Room

In the closed position, each door was considered as a structure supportedaround the periphery. In the open position, each door was considered as acantilevered structure with the hinges and hinge anchorages being designed fortheir loading from the door in the open position. Each embedded frame wasconsidered as being rigidly supported by concrete. Loads from the embeddedframe.are transferred to the concrete by embedded anchors.

Earthquake loads used in designing the manways were the forces due toaccelerations determined for the sump valve-room walls at the center of themanways by dynamic analysis of the Auxiliary Buildings for an OBE or SSE.These forces were used as static loads since the manways are rigid and firmlysecured to the walls when closed.

Pressure Confining Personnel Doors

Structural members for the doors, in the closed position, were designed assimple beams with end reactions carried by the outside members to the frameswhich were considered as being rigidly supported by concrete. Loads aretransferred to the concrete through embedded anchors or bolt anchors.

In the open position, the doors were designed as cantilever structures with

resultant concentrated loads being used for design of the hinge members. For

design, the earthquake loads for the various doors consisted of the loadsproduced bya- S013E:D

wonOB E oEarthquake forces due to building accelerations at the elevation of the centerof gravity of the various doors were used as static loads for determining doorcomponent and member sizes. The building accelerations were determined bydynamic analysis including amplification through the supporting structures.After establishing the component and member sizes, a dynamic analysis, usingappropriate response spectra, was made of the doors to determine thatallowable stresses had not been exceeded.

Fuel Pool Gates

The gates are designed for a waterhead load of 25.0 feet imposed from the fuelpool side as measured from the centerline of the horizontal bottom seal to thenormal pool level at elevation 749.13. The gates are constructed of weldedcorrosion resistant steel. When dewatering the fuel transfer canal orhandling the fuel cask over the fuel cask pit, inflatable elastomer sealsprovide a watertight seal between the skin plate and the pool wall liner face.

TVA has generally installed, and will continue to install fillet welds to meetb the minimum weld size specifications of Table 1.17.5 of AISC Manual of Steel

Construction. Where TVA drawings have specified fillet welds below theminimum sizes specified by AISC, these welds do meet the allowable stressrequirements identified above. Weld qualification testing has demonstratedthe adequacy of all fillet welds that were installed below minimum AISCspecifications.

The Additional Diesel Generator Building structural steel was proportioned tomeet the applicable codes discussed in Appendix 3.8E and load combinations inSection 3.8.4.3.

Structural steel and miscellaneous steel, which is highly restrained and islocated in a high temperature environment, is evaluated for effects of thermalloads.
