ABSTRACT:
A pressurized nuclear-reactor core is surrounded by an inspection cavity, and a burst shield with a side wall, a bottom and a cover. The inspection cavity is filled with a removable zero-path filling agent which fills the total space between core and shield so as to leave no free first-path. The filling agent is an incompressible fluent medium of either an incompressible fluid (i.e. a liquid) or a fine grained more or less incompressible, loose flowable material. Means is provided to prevent uncontrolled escape of the fluid medium.
