ABSTRACT:
A nuclear reactor core comprises an array of closely packed components which include fuel elements and may include control rod guide tubes. The components are arranged with their longitudinal axes vertical and in groups. The components of each group are urged laterally into firm engagement with one another by tilting at least some of them towards the centre of the group. The fuel elements of the group have interlocking bearing pads to resist relative lateral movement of fuel elements.
