Abstract: A passive cooling system for a reactor core of a large-scale pressurized water reactor nuclear power plant includes a shield building having an outer wall and a through air inlet arranged on an upper part of the outer wall, a water tank arranged at an upper part of the shield building, a cooling water distribution plate arranged above a top of a containment within the shield building, a spray pipe arranged at an inside of the top of the shield building and having a water inlet end and a water outlet end, wherein the water inlet end is connected to a bottom of the water tank and the water outlet end is extended to be above the cooling water distribution plate, and an air deflector arranged between the shield building and the containment and having an upper end connected to an inside of the top of the shield building.

Abstract: An apparatus for retention of molten material for a Generation IV reactor after a nuclear power plant accident comprises an inner wall which is peripherally closed, a vapor channel wall with an opening at the bottom fixed in the inner side of the inner wall, a pressure vessel disposed in the vapor channel wall, a vapor rising channel formed between the pressure vessel and the vapor channel wall, and it further comprises an outer wall surrounding the inner wall, a core molten material retention apparatus fixed at the bottom of the inner wall, and a deflector keeping away from the inner wall and the core molten material retention apparatus to form a gap; wherein a coolant falling channel is formed between the outer wall and the deflector, a coolant inlet is disposed at the bottom of the deflector, and a coolant channel is disposed between the inner wall and the core molten material retention apparatus; a core molten material retention recess is disposed at the upper surface of the core molten material retention
