Abstract
1,027,789. Fuel elements. COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE. Feb. 10, 1965 [Feb. 18, 1964], No. 5815/65. Heading G6C. In a fuel element of the type comprising an assembly of elongate fuel pins arranged within a jacket, a centring grid in the middle of the jacket is retained in position by two spaced sets of tubes which engage bores in the jacket; the axes of the two sets are disposed in a plane 1 to the jacket axis and the said axes are all tangential to the inner surface of the jacket. Figure 2 shows a cross-section through the graphite jacket 1 just above the grid 3; (fuel pins not shown). There are four pins 6 in each set, a set being arranged abutting the grid on each side. The pins are slotted longitudinally.
