Abstract
During a shutdown of the reactor, a device for partially closing off (27) the openings (26) of the reinforcements (6) located below the upper reinforcement (6a) is introduced through the opening (25) of the upper reinforcement (6a) of the partitioning of the core of the reactor. The closing off devices (27) remaining in position in the partitioning of the reactor after restarting thereof permit the increase and regulation of the head loss of the cooling water circulating in the annular space (7) around the partitioning (5) of the core. The closing-off device may consist of a rod (27) engaged in a set of openings (26) of the reinforcements (6) aligned along a vertical direction.
