    摘要: Each of cylindrical members composing a fuel spacer of separate cell type is formed at a edge portion thereof with a positioning notch or a positioning projection, which is located just opposite to one of fuel rod supporting projections formed on the inner surface of the cylindrical member. In manufacturing of the fuel spacer, the positioning notches or projections of the cylindrical members are engaged with the positioning projections or recesses formed on fuel spacer assembly jigs for precise and easy positioning of cylindrical members.

    摘要: With an arrangement that the axial distance from the upper end of a first opening area to the upper end of the second opening area is equal to the axial distance from the upper end of a first coupling member to the upper end of a second coupling member, when a spring member is moved upwardly relative to round cells, the upper end of the second coupling member comes into contact with the upper end of the second opening area, and the spring members receives upwardly acting forces from fuel elements. The spring member is thereby prevented from inclining with respect to flow of a coolant. Simultaneously, the upper end of the first coupling member contacts the upper end of the first opening area, and the spring member is stably held in a condition where it is aligned with the direction of the coolant flow. Also, since the axial distance from the lower end of the first opening area to the lower end of the second opening area is smaller than the axial distance from the lower end of the first coupling member to the lower end of the second coupling member, the lower end of the first coupling member does not come into contact with the lower end of the first opening area when the fuel element is inserted. Thus, the friction force produced during passage of the fuel member along the spring member is small and the fuel element can be inserted more easily.

    摘要翻译: 利用从第一开口区域的上端到第二开口区域的上端的轴向距离等于从第一联接构件的上端到第二联接构件的上端的轴向距离的布置, 当弹簧构件相对于圆形电池向上移动时,第二联接构件的上端与第二开口区域的上端接触,并且弹簧构件从燃料元件接收向上作用的力。 由此防止弹簧构件相对于冷却剂的流动而倾斜。 同时,第一联接构件的上端接触第一开口区域的上端,并且弹簧构件稳定地保持在与冷却剂流动的方向对准的状态。 此外,由于从第一开口区域的下端到第二开口区域的下端的轴向距离小于从第一联接构件的下端到第二联接构件的下端的轴向距离,所以 当燃料元件插入时,第一联接构件的下端不与第一开口区域的下端接触。 因此,燃料构件沿着弹簧构件的通过期间产生的摩擦力小,燃料元件能够更容易地插入。

    摘要: A fuel assembly comprises a plurality of fuel rods, a lower tie plate for supporting lower ends of the fuel rods, and a channel box surrounding a bundle of the fuel rods and the circumference of the lower tie plate to thereby define a cooling water leak passage between the lower tie plate and the channel box. The fuel assembly includes a venturi provided in the lower tie plate for generating a force tending to attract the channel box toward the lower tie plate under the action of a leak stream of the cooling water passing through the cooling water leak passage. The fuel assembly also includes an arrangement provided in the lower tie plate for suppressing vibrations of the channel box caused upon an influence of the venturi.

    摘要: The lower end of each of a plurality of fuel rods is supported by a fuel supporting portion of a lower tie plate. The fuel supporting portion includes a plurality of second coolant paths for supplying a coolant from below the fuel supporting portion to a first coolant path defined above the fuel supporting portion and between the fuel rods. The total cross-sectional area of all the second coolant paths is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the first coolant path. A water rod disposed between the fuel rods each includes an ascending tube path having therein a coolant ascending path having a coolant inlet port opening to a region below the fuel supporting portion, for guiding upward the coolant supplied through the coolant inlet port, and a descending tube having therein a coolant descending path having a coolant delivery port opening to said first coolant path, for guiding downward the coolant guided by said coolant ascending path and discharging the coolant through the coolant delivery port to the first coolant path. The descending tube path is so disposed outside the ascending tube path as to define a gap, through which the coolant inside the first coolant path flows, between it and the ascending tube path.
