Threaded fuel rod end plugs and related method |
abstract |
In a fuel bundle assembly for a nuclear reactor wherein a plurality of fuel rods and tie rods extend between upper and lower tie plates and wherein some of the fuel rods are partial length fuel rods extending between the lower tie plate and a spacer located between the upper and lower tie plates, an improved end plug is provided for at least each of the partial length fuel rods, each end plug secured between a respective partial length fuel rod and the lower tie plate. The end plug includes an upper portion constructed of a first alloy material and including an exterior fuel rod receiving surface and a tapped hole in a lower end thereof, and a lower portion constructed of a second alloy material and including upper and lower threaded sections, the upper threaded section receivable within the tapped hole and the lower threaded section receivable within a tapped hole in the lower tie plate. The threaded end plug may be used with full length fuel rods as well as bundle tie rods. A related method of removing the fuel rod with the improved end plug from the lower tie plate is also disclosed. |
