PROCEDIMIENTO Y APARATO PARA UN SISTEMA DE SOPORTE DE LA BOMBA DE CHORRO DE UN REACTOR DE AGUA EN EBULLICION

摘要

A method and apparatus for applying a lateral restraining force to a diffuser or an inlet mixer of a Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) jet pump restrainer assembly, to pull the diffuser or inlet mixer toward a centerline of a riser pipe. The lateral restraining force may be applied to just a diffuser, or just an inlet mixer, or both. Clamps are attached to the diffuser or inlet mixer, and alternatively to the riser pipe, and draw bolts are connected to the clamps to provide the necessary restraining force. The lateral restraining force either mitigates damage and repair to a conventional jet pump restrainer assembly, or alternatively is used in lieu of a jet pump restrainer assembly.
