FIELD: nuclear power engineering; fuel assemblies for nuclear reactors of primarily VVER-1000 type. SUBSTANCE: fuel assembly has fuel bundle installed in frame of spacer grids mounted on tubular channels secured, together with fuel rods, through bottom ends in bottom grid which is provided with adapter, shank with supporting ribs joined to bottom-grid adapter, head mounted on upper ends of tubular channels that has plate and lattice joined together through taper member provided with coolant passing ports; novelty is that taper member has at least twelve taper supporting ribs radially arranged over head perimeter with their larger sides secured to head lattice and smaller ones, to head plate; coolant passing ports are formed by taper supporting ribs, head plate and lattice between each pair of supporting ribs. EFFECT: reduced amount of parasitic structural material in head, facilitated manufacture, and reduced pressure drop in reactor channel during its operation. 2 cl, 4 dwg
