Zusammenfassung: | A spacer grid for a nuclear fuel assembly. A plurality of metal strips are interleaved on edge to define a plurality of individual cells. Each cell is sized to receive a single nuclear fuel rod. A series of projections, grid mixing vanes, extend from one edge of each metal strip and are alternately bent to extend on opposite sides of the metal strip. The alternating projections provide four grid mixing vanes that extend into each individual cell. |
