100k rfpt big reactor

[japanese_pie]

i made a 100k rf pet tick big reactor and automated the input and output of fuel/waste

i made a vid of it here

please leave any feedback and if you know the limit of big reactors please tell me

 

[madnewmy]

the limit, I heard, was 16x16x48

that would probably be around 1 million rf/t on monster if you place the rods correctly

i made a 9x9x12 (I think it's 12 :O) and it was outputting 209krf/t, enough to send on public energy and not running out (yet)

 

[japanese_pie]

hmm ima go and try to build that bad boy 16x16x48 ill post my results

I made a 12 core Reactorcraft HTGR Reactor. 160k RF/t. I could possibly get more if I used another turbine. ^.^

you probably need another 4-5 turbines.

my "little" 8-core pebblebed feeding two heat exchangers and 4x6 boilers will feed 4 small turbines at near max, with some steam buildup. ~3.8-4.0 GW.
dumping all four groups into a HP turbine shows its true output is actually ~4.2GW, or roughly 750K RF/t. HP turbine and turbine generator FTW!!!

heres what one layer looks like.
O-insulating block
C-core
A-air or whatever.
E-exchanger
AAOAA
AOCOA
OCECO

stack two of these layers on top of each other. hook up the fuel, waste, and CO2 lines. rock out to more power than you can shake a gear at.

make sure all exposed edges of the cores, boilers, and exchangers are covered. any block or pipe serves this purpose, so the top and bottom of the boilers along with 5 edges of the exchanger are covered. the last edge will be covered when insulating the boilers.

You can change the size in the config.

Well, I know what I'm doing today.

Thats the max size you could make?

Pssssst put more fuel rods
