Each fuel combination has a temperature at which the fusion process is most efficient. The number of coolers required by a fusion reactor depends on the size of the reactor and the choice of fuels and any changes made for the modpack being playing. Fusion reactors may only be cooled by active fluid coolers.
Placed against the controller block a comparator will emit a signal proportional to the heat level of the reactor and output a full signal if it exceeds 50 this can be altered in the mod s config file. A fission reactor that overheats will undergo a meltdown and random blocks of the structure will melt into radioactive corium. The table below lists the variables used in the heat power and fuel consumption equations.
As of version 1 5. They work rather on the combination between two different fuels that fuse together creating many different unique combinations. Fusion fuels don t work nearly the same as fission fuels.
Fusion reactor fuels edit. To start the fusion reactor it requires 50kj or 50 000 joules of electricity to start. Instead of splitting atoms to generate electricity it fuses atoms together to form a heavier one which releases energy in the process the most common type of fusion is deuterium fusion the same reaction that fuels the sun.
A fusion reactor is the exact opposite of a fission reactor. Deuterium tritium and d t fuel by water cooling the structure steam can be produced alongside power which is useful for powering an industrial turbine. The fusion reactor is a multiblock structure that allows for variable input rates of 3 types of fuel.
This takes approximately 40 000 000 rf if you have ender io this is 180 of the storage capacity of a. Once the temperature has reached 8 mk mega kelvin a reaction may be started. In order to get it started it requires heat which can be created by inputting large amounts of rf into the reactor.
The fusion reactor is powered by nuclear fusion by combining various fusion nuclear fuels.
Nuclear fusion reactor minecraft. A fusion reactor consists of a hollow square ring of fusion electromagnets centered around a fusion core. Reactors of size greater than 1 will require four sets of fusion connectors that connect the core and toroid. The reactor has two input fuel tanks and four output product tanks. By default there are seven fuels available to use in the.
A video going through the basics of nuclear fusion. In this second episode of our nuclearcraft tutorial spotlight we cover fusion reactors in detail both steam and standard ones. Link to fuel variables.
