ABSTRACT:
A core construction of a boiling-water nuclear reactor including an array of fuel assemblies and control rods wherein the fuel assemblies are each divided into two sections or upper and lower sections in the vicinity of the center of the length thereof and each lower section has a smaller mean infinite multiplication factor than each upper section. Of the fuel assemblies, those fuel assemblies which are located adjacent the control rods selected for power control each have a smaller overall means infinite multiplication factor than those fuel assemblies which are located adjacent the control rods other than the selected control rods.
