Found a good simulator for the nuclear reactor floating around the forum earlier and have been playing around with it for a while.
I noticed that it is fairly easy to make Mark I/II Class C reactor but it becomes more difficult when stepping up to B class. I managed to make one so i thought id post it.
Mark II-1 EB S6: 60 EU/t, Efficiency 3
I think this is classified as a Mark II... not sure entirely, see spoiler.

This thread says:
QuoteMark II
A mark II is a reactor capable of running a full operation without going into "critical heat" (>8500). The reactor-system is allowed to heat up to any degree below that number, given not a single component does melt.
Mark III
This class is defined by not being able to run a full cycle without melting system components.
I am slightly confused about weather my Class B reactor is a Mark II or a III. For the time being I am calling it a Mark II because although it does exceed 8500 heat (at the end the hull is 8905) it is able to run a full cycle without melting anything. Can I get a second opinion on this?
While I'm at it here are a few of the others I cooked up.
Mark I EC S0: 20 EU/t, Efficiency 2
Mark I EC S3: 40 EU/t, Efficiency 2
Mark I ED S6: 50 EU/t, Efficiency 1.67
Mark II-5 EC S2: 35 EU/t, Efficiency 2.33
Mark II-3 EC S6: 50 EU/t, Efficiency 2.5
Mark II-4 EC S6: 60 EU/t, Efficiency 2
Mark II-1 EC S6: 65 EU/t, Efficiency 2.6
Mark II-1 EC S6: 80 EU/t, Efficiency 2
Oh, and my non-standard notation S just means how many additional reactor chambers you need attached.
