| Zusammenfassung: | An interception chamber (1) especially suitable for materials resulting from a meltdown event in a nuclear power plant comprises a vessel (6) to receive and spread out the melt. Its cooling surface (61) comprises a material which conducts heat well. A coolant immediately below it, carries heat away. Novel features include inclination of the cooling surface with respect to the horizontal, and the melt is spread out as a cascade, and divided up, held on terraces. |
