Zusammenfassung:The invention refers to a filter ( 1 ) for separating particle from cooling water in a nuclear plant, and a fuel assembly with such a filter. The filter has an inlet end ( 2 ) and an outlet end ( 3 ) and permits through-flow of the cooling water in a main flow direction (x). The filter includes a number of sheets ( 4 ) extending in the flow direction from the inlet end to the outlet end. The sheets are arranged beside each other and form passages for the cooling water. The sheets include a first portion ( 4 ') extending from the inlet end ( 2 ), a second portion ( 4 '') extending from the outlet end ( 3 ), and a third portion ( 4 ''') extending between the first portion ( 4 ') and the second portion ( 4 ''). The sheets ( 4 ) have along the first portion continuous wave-shape extending in a direction (y) transversally to the flow direction (x) and along the third portion a continuous wave-shape extending in the flow direction (x).
