Abstract
A containment of a nuclear power plant has a pressure chamber, a condensation chamber, and a substantially vertically running condensation tube. The upper end of the tube is connected to the pressure chamber and the lower end of the tube is immersed in a cooling liquid in the condensation chamber. The lower end of the condensation tube has an elbow and an outlet nozzle. The elbow has an elbow angle which is such that the lower end of the elbow is immersed obliquely in the cooling liquid in the condensation chamber, and the outlet nozzle has an outlet opening which is substantially shielded with respect to the base of the condensation chamber. This renders it possible to significantly reduce the pressure loads on the base and the walls of the condensation chamber in the event of an emergency.
