Subject field(s)
  • Nuclear Fission Reactors
CONT

Between assemblies of the [reactor] core and those of the storage structure, there are the assemblies constituting the lateral neutron protection resting on the core structure via a false structure … As the manufacturing tolerances are greater and as the clearances between the stored assemblies and the lateral neutron protection assemblies can be greater in order to accept large bending or cambering effects, the precision of the construction of the storage structure can be reduced, which reduces manufacturing costs.
