Abstract: A radiator with a fan is arranged at a forward tilt under the footrest floor part of a cab floor of a cab-over-engine vehicle. The fan confronts the front of the engine. The fan is connected with the radiator through an air duct, a central axis of the air duct rises rearwardly. The fan has at its center a boss shaped into a truncated cone, the extremity of each of the blades in its longitudinal direction being parallel to the axis of the boss. The air duct has one opening end shaped into a cylinder which partially covers the blades of the fan.

Abstract: A fuel assembly comprises a plurality of fuel rods, a lower tie plate for supporting lower ends of the fuel rods, and a channel box surrounding a bundle of the fuel rods and the circumference of the lower tie plate to thereby define a cooling water leak passage between the lower tie plate and the channel box. The fuel assembly includes a venturi provided in the lower tie plate for generating a force tending to attract the channel box toward the lower tie plate under the action of a leak stream of the cooling water passing through the cooling water leak passage. The fuel assembly also includes an arrangement provided in the lower tie plate for suppressing vibrations of the channel box caused upon an influence of the venturi.

Abstract: A nuclear fuel assembly has a plurality of fuel rods and a lower tie plate supporting their lower ends. Coolant apertures extending through the lower tie plate. A channel box surrounds the fuel rods and receives the lower tie plate, to confine the coolant. To restrict leakage of coolant between the tie plate and the channel box, the coolant apertures include, adjacent the periphery of the lower tie plate, a plurality of peripheral apertures which are located at least partly outside the outermost fuel rods. The peripheral apertures each provide a coolant velocity peak located further from the axial center line of the tie plate than the axial center lines of the closest neighboring fuel rods. The invention also provides venturis in the leakage path between the channel box and the tie plate, to restrict deformation of the tie plate.
