Method for preparing a built-in part of a fuel element of a pressurized water nuclear reactor for disposal, and corresponding conditioned built-in part

摘要

A method for preparing a built-in part for disposal including the steps of mounting a supporting element such that it can be displaced in an axially elastic manner by a spring on a head of the built-in part and being used for support on the grid plate of the head frame of a fuel element. The supporting element is fixed in a pushed-back position against the action of the spring, enabling a common disposal of the built-in part with the fuel element.
