ABSTRACT:
Solid absorbent in particle form stored in an intermediate chamber at a position above the reactor core within a safety device container under fluid pressure is driven by the escape of the pressure fluid along a series path from the upper compartment to the lower compartment, into the lower compartment to shut down the reactor when a destructible seal within a pipe carried in the lower compartment ruptures in response to reactor malfunction.
