The analysis demonstrates the proper application of the NB-3200 rules for this special application, with discussion of the differences between an actual tube hole deviation and what is assumed in ASME Appendix A. This is a companion paper to ＂Technical Justification Supporting Operation with a Tube Installed in a Mis-Drilled Hole of a Steam Generator Tubesheet＂.展开更多
