MIXER GRILLE WITH FINS FOR NUCLEAR FUEL ASSEMBLY

摘要

A grid for a nuclear fuel assembly comprises a common frame having an axis and a plurality of beds of plates distributed along the axis. Each bed has a plurality of plates which are mutually parallel and are directed transversely to the plates of the adjacent beds. All plates are secured to the common frame. The plates having a same direction are distributed between a plurality of said beds interleaved with other ones of said beds consisting of plates having another direction, and the plates of the beds placed in an upstream portion of the grid have fins oriented so as to deflect coolant inwardly whereas the plates placed in a downstream portion of the grid have fins oriented so as to deflect the flow coolant outwardly.
