Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9642086A1] The present invention relates to a spacer in a fuel assembly and a fuel assembly. The spacer (7) is intended to retain, at a plurality of levels, longitudinal elements in a nuclear reactor and comprises an orthogonal latticework, surrounded by a sleeve-formed structure (10) arranged to extend both upstream and downstream of the orthogonal latticework. The invention is characterized in that the part of the structure (10) which extends upstream of the orthogonal latticework is arranged substantially at the corner portions of the orthogonal latticework, and in that the part of the structure (10) which extends downstream of the orthogonal latticework is arranged substantially along the sides of the orthogonal latticework.
