ABSTRACT:
Device for the recovery of a molten core of a nuclear reactor essentially constituted by partitions (4) for subdividing a volume located below the core into narrow empty volumes (5), into which the molten material will slowly flow, and cooling channels (6) for solidifying said material. The vaporization of the coolant advantageously brings about its automatic replenishment under the effect of the hydrostatic pressure of a raised source.
