description PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an advanced gray rod control assembly (GRCA) for a nuclear reactor. SOLUTION: By having the GRCA provide controlled insertion of gray rod assemblies into the reactor for controlling output rate from the reactor, reactivity control at full output is made available. Each gray rod assembly includes an elongated tubular member and a primary neutron absorber disposed in the tubular member. The neutron absorber comprises an absorbing material, preferably tungsten, having a 2,200 m/s neutron absorption microscopic capture cross section of 10 to 30 barns. An internal support tube is interposed between the primary absorber and the tubular member as a secondary absorber to enhance the neutron absorption, absorber depletion, assembly weight, and assembly heat transfer characteristics.
