SPECIFICATIONS FOR FUEL ASSEMBLIES FOR CORE I OF THE EXPERIMENTAL GAS- COOLED REACTOR
Specifications for the fuel assemblies Experimental Gas Cooled Reactor (EGCR) Core-I were developed for use in procuring the first core loading. A fuel assembly for the EGCR consists of a cluster of seven cylindrical fuel elements spaced and supported within a graphite sleeve. Each fuel element consists of a stainless-steel tube containing a column of hollow UO/sub 2/ pellets and having a spacer brazed at the midsection to control the spacing between fuel elements in a cluster. A master specification for the fuel assembly, a supplementary specification for each of the components, and a specification on record keeping daring manufacture are included. (auth)
