Abstract:
1. A pressure-loss adjusting-member installation tool comprising: a plurality of pressure-loss adjusting-member grippers being configured to freely grip or release a pressure-loss adjusting member which is arranged at a position between a lower nozzle arranged at one end of a fuel assembly having a relatively small pressure-loss when a primary coolant flows and a lower core support plate, and which can cause the primary coolant to pass therethrough in a state with a pressure-loss being increased more than that of when the primary coolant passes through only core support plate flow holes formed on the lower core support plate, and a holding unit that holds the plurality of the pressure-loss adjusting-member grippers in a same positional relationship as a relative positional relationship between the fuel assemblies arranged in plural on the lower core support plate, wherein each of the plurality of pressure-loss adjusting-member grippers includes an insertion portion, which is inserted into a hole formed in a horizontal member included in the pressure-loss adjusting member, and a lower-side support unit which is pivotally attached to the pressure-loss adjusting-member gripper, the lower-side support unit is protruded in a state with the insertion portion being inserted into a hole in the pressure-loss adjusting member such that when the lower-side support unit is pivoted, the lower-side support unit engages the pressure-loss adjusting-member and the lower-side support unit supports the horizontal member from below.
