Abstract Organic nuclear reactor core is advantageous for mobile nuclear power applications. In this study, based on the design of C18H14 as both coolant and moderator, novel design of graphite moderated, C18H14 cooled organic working medium reactor(ONR)core and fuel assembly was carried out. Monte Carlo code was used to study physical properties with different numbers of graphite rod, and fuel assembly control was also analyzed. Neutron characteristic results of neutron spectrum, energy release, the number of total neutrons per fission, percent energy deposition on the coolant and graphite under different numbers of graphite, keff, and relative peak power were obtained. And the fuel assembly perfor-mance including differential value of burnable poison and control rod were also acquired. These results can be used as reference for the design of the ONR power and optimization.
