did someone made a good mk1 reactor using plutonium???

if so please tell me send a pic or something
thanks in advance,

(if not right place please repost)

Simplest way to do this would probably just be finding an Mk1 reactor design that uses a double uranium cell and then put a single plutonium cell instead, or a double plutonium cell in place of a quad uranium cell.

At least... I think Plutonium produces heat (and energy) twice as fast... You'll want a failsafe in place just in case it's even faster, but i'm pretty sure it's double the speed and double the duration, which means all you're essentially doing to the design is doubling its lifespan before the cell dies.

Can i use those with plutonium??

 

[SilvasRuin]

Yes and no. The heat on that one is perfectly balanced. If you use quad-plutonium, it will overheat and explode. BUT as I mentioned earlier, if you use half as much plutonium as uranium, it should have the same output but with twice the lifespan. In this case you'd want to replace the quad-uranium with a double-plutonium.

Kay, thanks guy's

Not tested, but according to the system it should work.

 

[Hawkeye]

I will test and run IT, and we'll see

The one i posted alrady HAS plutonium (just hover over it with mouse adn youll see)

 

[MrZwij]

Yay for this thread! Keep those designs coming, guys.

 

[Codex]

Are there any more maintenance demanding reactors? High tiers? I love creating elaborate systems to get those to work.

 

[SilvasRuin]

Oh, that IS quad plutonium. Whoops. Well, I guess that explains the output, among other things.

Lol that's a fun one.

If you look at the planner there is a pull down menu that says general information, if you select condensator and replacements information it shows this setup using 11,668 Redstone

Here is the Setup Direwolf20 uses in his Let's Play Server series

If you substitute in Dual Plutonium instead of Quad Uranium, you get 96Mil EU generated at 240 EU/t instead of 64Mil EU generated at 320 EU/t.

A friend of mine tested it in Creative - went kablooie in <30 seconds. But then again I don't know if those RSH Condensators need special care or anything.

 

[Hawkeye]

they do, the rsh need to be recharged ith redstone again

 

[MrZwij]

they do, the rsh need to be recharged ith redstone again

How does that work?

 

[Trawne]

Here's one. Tested it and it's stable in game as well.

A couple of MK 1 - 6 chamber designs.

Thorium reactor:

192 EU/t
192.000.000 EU total

Plutonium reactor:

240 EU/t
96.000.000 EU total
(The neutron reflector should needs replacing. Alternatively, swap to Iridium neutron reflector)

[Hawkeye]

the output of thorium isn't correct, for a thorium reactor you make the normal reactors with uranium,
as thorium acts the same but just lasts 5 times as long

 

[SilvasRuin]

I thought Thorium put out less output per tick than Uranium as well...
