    摘要: A boiling water type nuclear reactor core, in which a plurality of fuel assemblies, each enclosed in a channel box, are loaded and a plurality of control rods, each having control blades, are arranged between the channel boxes. Latitudinal long blade control rods, each having control rod blades which extend latitudinally in four directions, are arranged between channel boxes on diagonals of square bundle regions each formed by a plurality of fuel assemblies, and latitudinal short blade control rods, each having control rod blades which extend latitudinally in four directions with each control rod blade having a latitudinal length of about half of the width of one of the square bundle regions, are arranged between the channel boxes in the center of each of the square bundle regions. The long blade control rods have a latitudinal blade length which is about twice as long as the latitudinal blade length of the short blade control rods.

    摘要: A fuel assembly has a water rod which consists of a coolant ascending path and a coolant descending path, the coolant ascending path opening below a fuel support of a lower tie plate, the coolant descending path opening above the fuel support and adapted to guide downwardly the coolant that has flowed up the coolant ascending path to the upper portion of the water rod. The lateral cross section of the coolant ascending path is more than 25 times that of the coolant descending path.The nuclear reactor with these fuel assemblies loaded in the core is operated as follows. After startup of the reactor when the reactor power is low, all the control rods inserted in the core are withdrawn completely. Then, the reactor power is controlled by regulating a liquid level formed in the water rods. This reactor operation method prolongs the lifetime of the control rods, thereby reducing the number of times they have to be replaced.

    摘要: In a fuel assembly having fuel rods inserted into regularly arranged cells of a fuel spacer which keeps the fuel rods correctly spaced from one another and has spacer elements disposed in a plurality of stages in the longitudinal direction of the fuel rods, the fuel spacer comprises vanes formed on the cells in such a manner that each vane is bent from a cut formed in a part of the side wall of the cell. The vanes obliquely project into the corresponding spaces between adjacent fuel rods and allow a coolant flowing through the spaces and forming two-phase flows to generate swirling flows toward the fuel rods. The fuel spacer may alternatively comprise either thin-walled cylinders having built-in vanes or spiral vanes, which are fixed to the spacer that has not been subjected to any direct machining. Also disclosed is a fuel assembly provided with any of the above-described fuel spacers. The arrangement of the present invention enables, while assuring a sufficient strength for maintaining fuel rods in their correct position, the transfer of heat from the fuel rods to the coolant to be promoted so as to raise the allowable power level of the fuel assembly, and enables the void ratio to be lowered so as to increase the reactivity.

    摘要: A piping branch structure includes a branch pipe distributing an inflowing fluid to pipes in at least three directions, and one of the pipes face a direction of flow of the fluid, wherein a fluid inlet of one of the pipes protrudes into the branch pipe. By protruding a fluid inlet of a pipe which faces a direction of flow of the fluid into the branch pipe, the protruding pipe act as obstacles, thus no vortex is generated and the non-vortex flow state can be maintain. In case of piping of recirculating system of a reactor, an inner pipe, whose structure is integral with that of a riser pipe, is provided so that the inner pipe extends toward a master tube side in a cross branch pipe. The inner pipe is provided holes and a flow-regulating plate. The quantity of cooling water circulating through the core of the reactor and the flow state of the cooling water in the pressure vessel are stabilized and balanced.

    摘要: A fuel assembly according to the present invention is formed in such a manner that the small diameter portion of an upper end plug of a fuel rod is inserted into a boss of an upper tie-plate. The upper end plug includes a small diameter portion and a large diameter portion which is disposed below the former. An expansion spring in disposed in the small diameter portion of the upper end plug. A cover member surrounding this expansion spring is disposed in the large diameter portion of the upper end plug, and extends upwardly. Since the cover member surrounds the expansion spring, pressure loss caused by the expansion spring can be reduced.
