Abstract
An alternative design of fuel assembly has been developed for the WWER -1000 reactor with the aim of assuring a geometrical stability of the core during operation. The fuel assembly provides enhanced safety and substantial improvement in the WWER-1000 fuel cycle economics. (C) 199 7 Elsevier Science S.A.
