Prior art fuel elements used in nuclear reactors can be divided into two general classes -- flat plate fuel elements and cylindrical rod fuel elements. A requirement for plate fuel elements is that the fuel be metallurgically bonded to the cladding. Fuel elements of this type are conventionally brazed in parallel relation between two side plates.
