"* Clarification of "additional" margin

"• Basis for 10% margin w/bonnet pressure >200 psig Criterion

"* Application utilizing PVNGS PL Model

"* Exceptions to 10% margin criterion • 13


METHODOLOGY

SUtilization of test specific valve factor "* Review of test traces

"• Application of test values

• Resulting valve factors

METHODOLOGY

SOther inherent uncredited margins .Conservatism and rigor of input

variables o Utilization of high valve factors and COFs

o Difference between maximum closing load and field measurement

o Conservatism of input pressures

o Utilization of minimum voltage and Limitorque TU 98-01

•Z 18


METHODOLOGY SBasis for 10% Margin w/bonnet pressure >200 psig criterion * Based on slight convergence of model w/Borg

Warner test results for high seating loads in initial model.

* Ensure enveloping of identified nonlinear BorgWarner data point 80 at 467 psig bonnet pressure and 32,000 lbf closing force.

* Allowance for other uncertainties based on initial small sample of data points above 400 psig bonnet pressure and greater than 17,000 lbf closing force.

METHODOLOGY

*Application utilizing PVNGS PL Model + Added some conservatism into model

* Review of input variables

* Review of actuator capacity and limits

+Calculated 10% margin between valve capability and pressure locking loads
