The Fission Reactor is a multiblock structure that allows for variable input rates of Fissile Fuel. The reactor uses either Sodium or water as a coolant. Power is generated by converting the generated heat into power in an Industrial Turbine. With water cooled reactors, this is done by directly piping steam into an Industrial Turbine. Sodium cooled reactors use a Thermoelectric Boiler as a heat-exchanger to cool down the Superheated sodium and heat up water into Steam.
Construction
- The structure must be a cuboid of minimum size 3x4x3, up to 18x18x18. - The edges of the outer shell must be made of Fission Reactor Casing - The faces of the outer shell can be either Fission Reactor Casing, Reactor Glass, Fission Reactor Port or Fission Reactor Logic Adapter
