The invention discloses a lower
pipe seat of a fuel
assembly. The lower
pipe seat comprises a seat body and a base, the seat body comprises a tube seat plate and a plurality of supporting legs arranged below the tube seat plate and used for supporting the tube seat plate, the base comprises a base body and a plurality of connecting parts arranged on the base body, the connecting parts and the supporting legs are arranged correspondingly, and each connecting part is provided with a clamping groove corresponding to the corresponding supporting leg. According to the fuel
assembly lower
pipe base, the base is additionally arranged below the base body to increase the height of the fuel
assembly in the
free state, the compression amount of a fuel assembly pressing
system is increased to compensate for the insufficient pressing force, the height of the fuel assembly in the
free state can be adjusted by adjusting the height of the base, and therefore the compression amount of the fuel assembly pressing
system is adjusted; and the pressing force requirements of fuel assemblies at different positions in the reactor core can be met. And meanwhile, the initial compression amount of the compression spring of the full-reactor-core fuel assembly is reduced, and the bending risk of the fuel assembly caused by too large pressing force of the fuel assembly can be effectively reduced.
