ABSTRACT:
In a nuclear fuel rod cluster in which the rods are supported axes parallel and held in spaced relationship by transverse grids, a number of auxiliary coolant spray pipes are positioned amongst the fuel rods. At least one grid has attached to it a target plate which extends between the fuel rods to deflect auxiliary coolant sprays on to the surfaces of portions of the rods which would otherwise not be cooled by the spray.
