摘要:
The invention relates to the field of nuclear energy, in particular, to the systems ensuring safety of nuclear power plants (NPPs), and can be used in severe accidents resulting in destruction of the reactor pressure vessel and containment. The technical result of the claimed invention is to enhance reliability of the corium localizing and cooling system of a nuclear reactor. The objective, which the claimed invention is intended to achieve, is to prevent destruction of the corium localizing and cooling system within the junction area between the vessel for the corium receipt and distribution and the cantilever truss under the conditions on non-axisymmetric corium escape from the reactor pressure vessel and falling of the reactor pressure vessel head fragments into the vessel at the initial stage of the corium cooling with water, and consequently to prevent any ingress of water intended for external cooling of the vessel into the vessel. The set objective is achieved due to the fact that the corium localizing and cooling system of a nuclear reactor additionally comprises thermal protection suspended to the cantilever truss, the membrane installed between the cantilever truss and the vessel, and the bandage plates installed on the external and internal side of the membrane.

The invention relates to the field of nuclear energy, in particular, to systems that ensure the safety of nuclear power plants (NPP), and can be used in severe accidents that lead to reactor pressure vessel and its containment destruction. The technical result of the claimed invention is to increase the safety of a nuclear power plant by excluding the release of liquid and solid radioactive materials (corium) outside the device for confining core melt in the event of a severe accident with the core melt discharge out of the nuclear reactor. The object of the current invention is to improve the efficiency and reliability of the the device for confining core melt by improving the corium cooling conditions. The set object is solved based on the use of the filler formed in the cassettes, the upper and the lower ones. The cassettes have vertical and horizontal channels that ensure uniform distribution of the melt in the cooled body.
