The GCFR Phase I assembly is the initial Gas-Cooled Fast Reactor Benchmark assembly on the ZPR-9 reactor at Argonne National Laboratory. It represents the first full scale mockup of a GCFR ever assembled. It is a clean, simple geometry benchmark reference for the 300 MW(e) GCFR Demonstration Plant designed by General Atomic Company. A description and the evaluated specifications (zero-excess reactivity critical mass and dimensions) of the benchmark assembly are presented.
