Simple CASUC Reactor 65Eu/t

    Hello guys, this is my first post/thread here, was reading for the long time this forums and always wanted to post something, but wasn't doing it for some reason.
    So I presenting a practical water bucket cooled MK2 Reactor


    Mods In Use:
    Bucket Filler
    BC 2.2.4
    Additional Pipes


    Details used to make reactor set-up: (Resources Doesn't Not Counted, only finished products)


    And yes it is SMP compatible.


    Reactor output is 65 Eu/t
    Not much, but doesn't require TMI and baby seating! And mostly safe.



    Pictures:

    Yes, system are compact, but it needs a heating up time, due too fact that redstone engines need time to heat up and start working fast enough, to refill buckets at a rate supplied by the reactor.
    Also, a note engines block(big, bulky thing) must work synchronously, otherwise no boost in bucket refilling speed, which can leave reactor dry...
    Overflow cannot occur, the amount of buckets are equal to amount of the slots available for them.


    On a set up, purple pipe are for checking if filler have bucket already if slot are taken then it will go to waiting loop, until slot are available. The same thing is impossible with reactor tho...
    The compact water supply set up, consist of very closely packed system, diamond pipe there plays a role of router, sending empty buckets to the filler and filled one to the reactor, it is pretty simple.
    Tho, advanced wooden pipe used at the reactor, to check for the empty bucket, and if it there, it takes it out and sends to the filler.


    As you see set up simple and fairly cheap, and can be easily made in SMP with appropriate mods installed.
    It also can be used as a breeder reactor with just little change.



    Note: Cooling system in the reactor made only to assist buckets cooling, you cannot relay on it.


    Sorry, if my sentences hard to read, this is not my first language, and i am a bit lauzy writer.

    The point was not to use redpower. Due to problems it causing with chunks beeing unloaded AND it's world module requirement, which turns landscape in to something unwanted.


    Also this design can be builded legitly in SMP, the other one you gave link, possible, but very hardly.
    Tho, unwanted features can be disabled in redpower in config, but still.

    Well, your reactor design are good, I have nothing against it, but it have to be pasted, since it is pretty hard to rebuild it from scratch. And it does take much more space. My design aimed at being compact and easy to build. So ones you done, you can just leave it running, until uranium runs out. And again, it is BC based. And works perfectly legitly. (No need for tons of TMIed ice)
    I do enjoy redpower (logic rules!), but it latest additions are seems a bit odd to me. There are good, but I expected BC to have them first. (Seriously, why SpaceToad didn't made them before? Even if a additional part of BC, would be so much more awesome. I feeling odd about it.)


    Tho, so aims of designs here is different.
    I giving a pretty EU efficient reactor set-up design with zero baby-seating and small size, you giving a monster which will supply massive power, but hard to build and needs RP2.
    Tho, buckets in masses getting expensive(Tin are now rare for some reason), how much buckets in total you have?

    Someone else made a reactor without containment chamber and it was really small. Also no ice is used in my reactor only water buckets which require iron. I believe there about 150 buckets in my design so thats 450 iron pretty much the iron cost of a filled 6 chamber reactor. In that smaller reactor there are alot less buckets since the pipes arent that long.
    Its more expensive that a normal reactor but its definitely possible to make ony legimately. I actualy got one running legit. 2-3x cost for over 10x output. Also yours is using BC mine is using RP2 both are mods so i dont see your point.

    I didn't say it impossible to make your reactor legitly, just said hard. Tho, it still requires ALOT of resources to build, compare to my. Since the whole set up around reactor pretty cheap in my case. I can count up resources which would be used to build. Also I gonna use few of them in my legit world, since my systems currently and slowly runs out of my main resource. And without it I can only charge tools, from the solar system. No talk about generating matter....
    65 Eu/t are a pretty big number compare to non CASCA reactors which working non stop, and make a 2 reactors and you getting double, also I may reduce amount of redstone engines and get ride of some components in reactor, it should reduce price, and make it even more accessible. But it rises a little risk.
