NUCLEAR FUEL ASSEMBLY WITH SEISMIC/LOCA TOLERANCE GRID

A nuclear fuel assembly grid that includes two zones, a protected zone and a crumbled zone. The crumbled zone occupies the periphery of the grid and is designed to experience plastic deformation under high impact loads and the protected zone occupies the interior of the grid where the control rod gu...

Zusammenfassung:	A nuclear fuel assembly grid that includes two zones, a protected zone and a crumbled zone. The crumbled zone occupies the periphery of the grid and is designed to experience plastic deformation under high impact loads and the protected zone occupies the interior of the grid where the control rod guide thimbles are located and protects all of the control rod guide thimble locations by experiencing only plastic deformation under such loads.
