Abstract

La grille (10) selon l'invention comprend dans chaque cellule (7) des bossages rigides (14) pour le positionnement des barres (18) de combustible. Ces saillies sont d'une façon générale fermées à l'écoulement du réfrigérant à travers la cellule (7) et les autres saillies (14b) sont généralement ouvertes à cet écoulement. Les barres sont ainsi solidement maintenues en place sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'utiliser beaucoup de matière de la structure.
