Abstract

1,214,998. Reactors. ATOMIC POWER CONSTRUCTIONS Ltd. 28 Feb., 1968 [9 March, 1967], No. 11172/67. Heading G6C. A debris collector basket situated at the foot of a fuel element channel as in Specification 1,113,145 and having perforated sides to permit the flow of coolant therethrough, is provided with inclined surfaces at the perforations so that the coolant exerts a downward force on the basket. In one construction the basket sides are formed of expanded sheet metal mesh with diamond-shaped openings, the sides of these openings forming the inclined surfaces.
