Nuclear reactor (scheme) in the "Meincraft". Ic2 experimental reactor schematics

If you play in the "Maintrack" and know about the modification called "Industrial Craft", then you are most likely familiar with the problem of a terrible lack of energy. Virtually all the interesting mechanisms that you can build using this mod, consume energy. Therefore, you definitely need to know how to develop it at the same time, so that it will always be enough. There are several sources of energy - you can get it even from coal when it is burned in an oven. But at the same time you should understand that it will be a very small amount of energy. So you need to look for better sources. The most energy you can get, using a nuclear reactor. The scheme for it can be different depending on what exactly you want to aim for - efficiency or productivity.

Effective Reactor

In "Maynkraft" it is very difficult to collect a large amount of uranium. Accordingly, it will not be easy for you to build a full-fledged nuclear reactor, the scheme of which would be designed for low fuel consumption with high energy output. However, do not despair - it is still possible, there is a certain set of schemes that will help you achieve your goal. The most important thing in any scheme is the use of a quadruple uranium rod, which will allow you to maximize the production of energy from a small amount of uranium, as well as quality reflectors that will reduce fuel consumption. Thus, you will be able to build an effective nuclear reactor - the circuit for it can differ.

Reactor scheme on a uranium rod

So, first we should consider a nuclear reactor, the scheme of which is based on the use of a quadruple uranium rod. First you will need to get it, as well as those iridium reflectors that will allow you to get the maximum fuel from one rod. It is best to use four pieces - so maximum efficiency is achieved. It is also necessary to supply your reactor with advanced heat exchangers in an amount of 13 pieces. They will constantly try to equalize the temperature of the surrounding elements and themselves, thereby cooling the body. Well, naturally, you can not do without overclocked and component heat sinks - the first will need as many as 26 pieces, and the second will be enough ten. In this case, overclocked heat sinks lower the temperature of the body and the body, while the component heat sinks lower the temperature of all surrounding elements, and do not heat themselves at all. If we consider the scheme of the nuclear reactor IC2 Experimental, then this is the most effective. However, you can use another option, replacing the uranium rod on the MOX.

Scheme of the reactor on the MOX

If you are building a nuclear reactor in Mayncraft, the circuits can be very diverse, but if you are aimed at maximum efficiency, then you do not need to choose among many - it is better to use the one described above, or use this one, in which The main element is the MOX rod. In this case, you can opt out of the heat exchangers using only heat sinks, only this time the component should be the most - 22, overclocked enough for 12, and a new type - a reactor heat sink - will be added. It cools both yourself and the body - you need to install three of them. Such a reactor will require a little more fuel, but it will give much more energy. That's how you can create a full-fledged nuclear reactor. Schemes (1.6.4), however, are not limited to efficiency - you can concentrate on performance.

Productive reactor

Each reactor consumes a certain amount of fuel and produces a specific amount of energy. As you already understood, the scheme of a nuclear reactor in Industrial Craft can be designed in such a way that it will consume little fuel, but at the same time produce enough energy. But what if you have enough uranium and you do not regret it for producing energy? Then you can make sure that you have a reactor that will produce very, very much energy. Naturally, in this case, too, you need to build your own design not at random, but very carefully consider everything, so that fuel consumption is maximally reasonable when producing a large amount of energy. Schemes for a nuclear reactor in Minecraft in this case may also differ, so you need to consider two main ones.

Productivity with the use of uranium rods

If in effective schemes of a nuclear reactor only one piece of uranium rods or MOX rods was used, then in this case it is understood that you have a large fuel supply. So a productive reactor will require you to have 36 uranium quad rods, as well as 18 coolers of 320K. The reactor will burn uranium to generate energy, but the cooler will protect it from the explosion. Accordingly, you need to constantly monitor the reactor - the cycle under this scheme lasts 520 seconds, and if during this time you do not replace the coolers, the reactor will explode.

Productivity and rods MOX

Strictly speaking, in this case absolutely nothing changes - you need to install the same number of rods and the same number of coolers. The cycle is also 520 seconds, so always monitor the process. Remember that if you produce a large amount of energy, there is always a danger that the reactor will explode, so watch it closely.
