Abstract

895,718. Nuclear fuel elements. COMMISSARIAT A L'ENERGIE ATOMIQUE. March 7, 1960 [March 16, 1959], No. 7983/60. Class 39(4) A support for nuclear fuel rods consists of a cylindrical block 4 containing compartments distributed round and parallel to the axis of the block within which compartments fuel rods 1 are supported along their entire lengths. The rods have fins which rest on the walls of the compartments, and are held in place by grids 7, 8; the grids have toothed projections 6 for centering adjacent blocks on each other. The block may be of graphite Zr, Al, Mg, Be. It may also be used as a housing for specimens to be irradiated. Compartments of round, square, and hexagonal cross-section are mentioned.
