<p>A nuclear fuel support grid 10 min of egg-crate structure has wave defining strips 12a, 12b, 12c 12d defined by bends 16 min inclined from the vertical and opposing cantilevered springs 18 min with inclined spring bases 20 min opposing them for support of fuel rods 22 intermediate their ends. The "inclined waves" defined by inclined surfaces formed by bends 16, and spring bases 20 min of cantilevered springs 18 min provide lateral components to the coolant flow in patterns which enhance DNB and corrosion behavior.</p> |
