Abstract

According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a nuclear reactor module which has a containment vessel (200) and a reactor vessel (300) contained inside the containment vessel (200). The reactor vessel (300) contains a primary circuit (320, 440) with a primary fluid (450) and a reactor core (500) being cooled by the primary fluid (450). An intermediate volume (210) is formed between the containment vessel (200) and the reactor vessel (300). The intermediate volume (210) is partially filled with an intermediate fluid (220). The circulation of the primary fluid (450) is permanently separated from the intermediate volume (210).
