Reactor Chamber

ID: neoindustrial:reactor_chamber

Nuclear Reactor (EU mode). Turned on with redstone (on the reactor or a chamber). It has 3 columns of 6 slots; each Reactor Chamber touching its faces adds one column (up to 9). Every second fuel rods give 5 EU/t per neutron pulse plus heat; vents, exchangers and cells handle it. What they do not absorb goes to the hull: up to 10,000 hU plus what platings add. From 40% it sets fires around it, at 50% it evaporates water, at 70% it irradiates nearby creatures, at 85% it melts blocks and at 100% it explodes. The GUI shows hull heat and EU/t. The energy packet is everything it produces: a big reactor needs higher-voltage cables.

How to build and run it

  1. Place the Nuclear Reactor. It has 3 columns of 6 slots; each Reactor Chamber attached to one of its sides adds a column, up to 9 (6 chambers). Chambers also open the GUI and take redstone.
  2. Fill it with fuel rods and components that handle heat (vents, exchangers, coolant cells, plating). Plan it before turning it on: heat that is not absorbed goes to the hull.
  3. Connect a cable to any side. The energy comes out in a single packet with everything it produces: a reactor above 32 EU/t needs higher-voltage cables and machines (or a transformer).
  4. Turn it on with redstone (a lever on the reactor or a chamber). Without a signal it does nothing.

What to watch

  • The GUI shows the hull heat and the EU/t it produces.
  • Each rod gives 5 EU/t per neutron pulse it receives: rods placed together produce much more.
  • The hull holds 10,000 hU (more with plating):
Hull heatWhat happens
40%sets fire around it
50%evaporates nearby water
70%irradiates anyone nearby
85%melts blocks
100%explodes and leaves a nuclear crater
  • Wear the full hazmat suit (or a charged QuantumSuit) to handle uranium and fuel rods without being poisoned.

All the details (pulses, components, MOX, the fluid reactor and the nuke) are in the Nuclear reactor guide.
