AHC Process Implementation• AHC Preparation
– Data from last inspection (2013) is selected for AHC process– Perform historical setup – Perform data indexing– Preparation would take 16 hours for 2 SGs
(total of 24,000 tubes)• Auto setup with over 20 AHC channels• Enhanced Auto Data Screening (EADS) is used for AHC• Auto Analysis setup with detection on AHC Channel 3 • AHC Channel 1 and AHC Channel 5 are used for
confirmation• AHC run time is about 1 second per tube

AHC Process Implementation• AHC results are affected by:
– Changes of essential EC parameters – test frequency, gain– Probe variation (resonant frequency)– Data from 2 half-lengths in history are compared with current full-
length data collected by Zephyr®1 acquisition system• AHC process compensation and validation• AHC process error handling• AHC optimization (cache memory)• Selective data spooler to spool periphery tubes• Separate AHC PC is being used for periphery analysis1 Zephyr® is a trademark or registered trademark of Westinghouse Electric Company LLC, its affiliates and/or its subsidiaries in the United States of America and may be registered in other countries throughout the world.

AHC Field Implementation Results• Approximately 4000 periphery tubes were analyzed
with AHC • 300 I codes (DTI) were called by AHC, analyst kept 4• Lead analyst kept 3 DTI for supplemental array exam where
they are confirmed as historical anomaly

Lessons Learned
• Enhance AHC error handling to improve user experience– Clear error message– Separate warning and real error
• Auto populate and enhance lissajous display for AHC channels
• Ease of recall and importing AHC report to resolution
• Improve validation for AHC database preparation process

Conclusions• AHC alignment performs well most of the time when joining
2 historical tube halves against current full length tube• AHC optimization works well and is able to keep up with
high speed Zephyr® acquisition (120 ips)• Correlation between AHC channels minimizes overcall
Overcall is setup to be conservative for first field implementation
• AHC provides for added defense in depth above traditional analyses on detection of loose part wear
