Fusion Reactor

Fusion Reactor

Mod	Mekanism
Type	Multiblock Power Generator
Tool	?
Stackable	N/A

The Fusion Reactor is a multiblock structure that allows for variable input rates of 3 types of fuel: Deuterium, Tritium, and D-T Fuel.

Crafting Recipes

Made out of:

• Reactor Frame
• Reactor Port
• Reactor Controller
• Reactor Glass
• Laser Focus Matrix

Construction

Step	Image	Description
Step 1		A star made out of Reactor Frame
Step 2		A square without corners, also made out of Frame. The centers of the sides can be Reactor Ports.
Step 3		A complete square of Reactor Frame but with Reactor Ports for input/output and a Laser Focus Matrix for the laser. The corners cannot be ports.
Step 4		Same as step 2
Step 5		Same as Level 1 but with one Reactor Controller in the middle

GUI

You access the GUI of the Fusion Reactor by right-clicking the reactor's Reactor Controller.

Main Screen

Reactor Controller GUI

The text on the main screen of the GUI indicates if the structure is correctly formed or incomplete. This screen also has a single inventory slot, into which you will need to insert a charged Hohlraum in order for lasers to be able to ignite the reaction.

Heat Tab

The Heat tab of the Controller GUI

The two indicators to the left show the temperature of the plasma and the case. The highest of the three on the right shows the internal energy storage and the ones beneath shows the amount of water and steam inside the reactor.

Fuel Tab

The Fuel tab of the Controller GUI

The Fuel tab indicates the amount of fuel and the injection rate. The tanks show, from left to right, the amount of Deuterium, D-T Fuel and Tritium inside.

Statistics Tab

The Statistics tab of the Controller GUI

The Statistics gives the user various technical information regarding injection rate, max temp, passive generation and steam production.

Tips

To keep the reactor running at a constant rate, it is best to pipe in Deuterium and Tritium separately at a rate greater than half of the specified injection rate in the fuel tab for each type of fuel. Piping in D-T fuel only will result in the reactor immediately using all of the fuel inside the D-T tank and promptly shutting down.
