ABSTRACT:
A nuclear reactor includes a core melt collection chamber having walls with multilevel protective layers. The layers include one layer part made of refractory concrete and another layer part made of ceramic bricks. The protective layers are anchored to the structural concrete of the collection chamber. In order to provide structural simplification, the layer part made of refractory concrete is constructed in the form of prefabricated blocks which are jointed together and are fastened to the structural concrete, and the layer part made of ceramic bricks is braced to the blocks of the layer part made of refractory concrete.
