ABSTRACT:
A nuclear power plant has a reactor core and a containment chamber for receiving core melt of the reactor core. A cooling system for cooling the containment chamber includes a flooding container to be filled with coolant fluid. A cooling pipe leads from the flooding container to the containment chamber. A passively opening closure element closes the cooling pipe in the flooding container and opens as a function of a level of the coolant fluid.
