analysis has been used. 6. MEB reviews the program which the applicant has committed to implement as part of the preoperational test procedure, principally to correlate the test measurements with the analytically predicted flow-induced dynamic response of the reactor internals. MEB reviews the applicant's state- ments in this area to assure that there is a commitment to submit a report on a timely basis. The report should summarize the analyses tand test results so that MEB can review the compatibility of the results from tests and analyses, the consistency between mathematical models used for different loadings, and the validity of the interpretation of the test and analysis results. 3.9.2-19 Rev. 2 - July 1981 IV. EVALUATION FINDINGS The reviewer verifies that sufficient information has been provided and that the review supports conclusions of the following type, to be included in the staff's safety evaluation report: The staff concludes that the dynamic testing and analysis of systems, com- ponents, and equipment is acceptable and meets the relevant requirements of General Design Criteria 1, 2, 4, 14 and 15. This conclusion is based on the following: 1. The applicant has met the relevant requirements of General Design Criteria 14 and 15 with respect to the design and testing of the reactor coolant pressure boundary to assure that there is a low prob- ability of rapidly propagating failure and of gross rupture and to assure that design conditions are not exceeded during normal operation including anticipated operational occurrences by having an acceptable vibration, thermal expansion, and dynamic effects test program which will be conducted during startup and initial operation on specified high- and moderate-energy piping, and all associated systems, restraints and supports. The tests provide adequate assurance that the piping and piping restraints of the system have been designed to withstand vibrational dynamic effects due to valve closures, pump trips, and
