Description

To enhance the side impact strength of the fuel rod support structure, a wire-woven structure was developed. This support grid was composed of a perimeter strap and a truss structure, which made up a two-layer to four-layer truss for the required strength. The wire-woven structure had the high resistant behavior even though it had a light weight. It would be used as a support grid for the segmented fuel rod or a conventional one. Side impact analysis of the support grid structure was executed with the commercial explicit code and compared with the results of the impact test. The developed wire-woven support satisfied the design criteria for the next generation reactor
