    摘要: A fuel assembly of the present invention comprises a plurality of fuel rods which are held by an upper tie plate and lower tie plate at the ends thereof and a moderating rod which is arranged between the fuel rods and held by the lower tie plate at its lower end. The fuel rods are arranged in a lattice form having 9 rows and 9 columns, and the moderating rod contains a passage for a coolant and has a cruciate cross-sectional form. The ratio A.sub.M /A.sub.C of the area A.sub.M of a moderator region in the moderating rod in the cross-sectional plane in which the moderator is present to the area A.sub.C of the coolant passages in said fuel assembly is within the range of 0.07 to 0.11, and the area A.sub.M is 75% or more of the total area of the fuel lattice units in which none of the fuel rods is arranged, but the moderating rod is arranged.

    摘要: There are provided a light water reactor core which has the same levels in cost efficiency and degree of safety as those of an existing BWR under operation now, that is, which is oriented to plutonium multi-recycle having a breeding ratio near 1.0 or slightly larger and having a negative void coefficient with minimizing modification of the reactor core structure of the existing BWR under operation now, and to fuel assemblies used for the boiling water reactor. The light water reactor core having an effective water-to-fuel volume ratio of 0.1 to 0.6 is formed by combining closed compact lattice fuel assemblies each composed of fuel rods having fuel which is enriched by adding plutonium or plutonium and an actinide to a uranium containing at least one of a depleted uranium, natural uranium, a degraded uranium and a low enriched uranium; high void fraction coolant of 45% to 70%; and large-diameter control rods to be inserted into the fuel assemblies, the large-diameter control rod comprising at least one absorption rod having a transverse cross-sectional area larger than a cross-sectional area of a unit lattice cell of the fuel rod.

    摘要: A fuel assembly of the present invention comprises fuel rods which are arranged in 9 rows and 9 columns (9.times.9) in a channel box. The channel box has a width L between outer walls thereof and a width D between inner walls thereof, both of which satisfy the following equation:0.12.ltoreq.(P-L)/Dwherein P denotes the fuel assembly pitch in a reactor core. A sufficient cold shutdown margin for a reactor core can be secured by determining the widths L and D so as to satisfy the above-described equation, even if the average enrichment of the fuel assembly is increased to 4 wt % or more.

    摘要: In a light water moderation type nuclear reactor with the once-through method, the reactor core is divided into a central area and a peripheral area by a partition member, a first fuel assembly is arranged in the central area (high conversion area) and a second fuel assembly is arranged in the peripheral area. The ratio (r.sub.H/U) of the number of hydrogen atoms to that of uranium atoms in the central area is smaller than that of the ratio in the peripheral area and the second fuel assembly in the peripheral area is formed of fuel rods of the first fuel assembly having been previously burned in the central area and moved into the peripheral area. The plutonium production increases and uranium consumption is reduced during the first half of the lifetime of the fuel rods in the high conversion area with the take-up burn up increasing during the second half of the lifetime of the fuel rods in the burner area.
