A reactor pressure vessel(RPV) of a boiling water reactor(BWR) typically has a generally cylindrical shape and is closed at both ends, e. g., by a bottom head and a removable top head. A core assembly is contained within the RPV and includes the core support plate, fuel assemblies, control rod blades and a top guide. A core shroud typically surrounds the core assembly and is supported by a shroud support structure. Particularly, the shroud has a generally cylindrical shape and surrounds both the core plate and the top guide. There is a space or annulus located between the cylindrical reactor pressure vessel and the cylindrically shaped shroud.  2, record 1, English, - core%20shroud

Dans les conceptions REP [réacteur à eau pressurisée] hors VVER, les grilles sont des emboîtements carrés de tôles. Leur fonction première est de positionner latéralement et axialement les crayons combustibles. Cette fonction est le plus souvent assurée par un système de ressorts et de bossettes [...] qui permet d'accommoder les dilatations thermiques et le grandissement induit par l'irradiation. [...] Les embouts, ou pièces d'extrémités, sont des éléments plus massifs). Situés hors de la partie active du cœur, leur transparence aux neutrons n'est pas nécessaire. Ils sont réalisés principalement en acier inoxydable soit par usinage et soudage de barres forgées et de tôles épaisses, soit par des gammes mixtes alliant ébauches moulées et usinage.  1, record 2, French, - embout

The guide thimbles are structural members which also provide channels for the neutron absorber rods, neutron sources or instrumentation devices. Each thimble consists of a Zircaloy tube. The tube diameter at the top section provides the annular area necessary to permit rapid control rod insertion during a reactor trip. The lower portion of the guide thimble is made with a smaller inner diameter to reduce diametrical clearances and produce a dashpot action near the end of the control rod travel during trip operation.  1, record 6, English, - dashpot%20action
