The fuel elements as rods or bars are longitudinally arranged in a circle within the wall of an encasing tube. A beryllium tube, e.g., provided with longitudinnl bores receives uranium rods in these bores which are then closed by beryllium plugs welded to the wall by argon arc welding. Other closing methods may also be used. Sodium or its alloys may be introduced as an intermediate heat transfer medium. (auth)
