ABSTRACT:
A fuel assembly for a light-water nuclear reactor contains a plurality of vertical fuel rods which are arranged, mutually spaced from each other in the lateral direction, between a bottom tie plate and a top tie plate. The bottom tie plate is provided with through-holes for conducting water through the bottom tie plate and into the spaces between the fuel rods. The through-holes in the bottom tie plate have parts, the centre lines of which are displaced in relation to each other or make an angle with each other.
