A list of good reactor designs (IC² v1.103 and earlier)

Quote from tjmonk15

My first attempt at a design. I don't THINK it has been posted before.

http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10

Mark III
Effeciency: 2.6
Effective EU/t: 70.12 (Active EU/t: 260)
Max Run Time: 00:49:48 (30% of a cycle)
Cooldown Time: 02:14:52

I'm not sure how good that actually is, it seems pretty good to me. I am planning on setting up 4 with some redstone/redpower to keep continuous generation. Can this design be made more effecient?

First of all, inefficient HD usage. Second, too much uran. At this level of output more uran = less average UE/t.

For example, this one has only 20 less EU/t but longer generation time and more efficiency:

Mark V EB (http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10)

This reactor was specifically designed to be a set-and-forget Mark V reactor with good efficiency. With a simple redstone timer circuit that keeps it active for 2 ticks out of every 8, it can be run indefinitely with no heat buildup. It's not a fast reactor (full cycle takes 4x normal), but it's completely safe to AFK from--needing zero replacement parts, and has an decent efficiency at 3.00.

take an look tot the first post of this topic, there are quite some designs that beat yours concerning effective EU/T

A couple designs of my own devising, hopefully they're new

http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…1k101010037ps011111101110
Mk 3, 3.67 eff, 67.71 eu/tick, less resources than the mk 3 on the first post

My attempt at a fast heating breeder
All components 0 to 9000 heat in less than 15 minutes
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…q=1k101010114010101001010 Heating configuraton (also almost a mk 3 with 3.77 eff )
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…y=1k101010114010101001019 stable

heh, that was fast , nice cut on the heat dispersers though, I'll put them in my 3rd reactor. Gotta use up all that uranium or I'll be tempted to start putting craters in the landscape.

Nice finally someone with a serious design thats worth looking into.

Improved to this: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…1k101010037ps011111101110

wel rick, i took your design, let it sink in. and improved it to this:

it trades some eff for an higher EU/T

the current eff is at 3.0 right now, with an effective EU of 78,49 and an generation time of 0,2 cycle exact.
looked like an more stable design to me then the current version. here is the link:

Hey guys, I'm planning my first reactor and was messing around with designs. How's this look?
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10

I didn't get a chance to sift through all the designs so if someone made this already, my apologies.

how about this instead?
same eff, les cycles in an row, more eu, and 2 more uranium cells.
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10

i dont think this has been created before, nice job

I believe i have created much better one before. http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…10101001511f21s1r14lflr10

You have designed very expensive reactor. I tried to make it cheaper a bit: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10

Edit: Now i see i could just edit the post before this one, sorry for double post.

Well this will be my last post before weekend ends then i will be inactive for a week again :). So since its my last post i make it epic:

That reactor design is made obsolete by this one:
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1o10101001501521s1r11r10

I was just trying to help him with his design, no matter what he wants it for. If he already has 6 chamber reactor, and wants to use 2x2 U-Cells, it is better choice imo.

And at your suggestion: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1o10101001501521s1r11r10

I see now what you mean by expensive! I was aiming for a low voltage Mark 1 that I could kind of set and forget. Back to the drawing board then

Finally,a 120 output reactor,that takes +2 uranium,but takes less HD (like 2) and has an effective eu/t ~105 and 24 mins cooldown
THE BEST!!1
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10

another nice,160 eu/t. 99.44 eff,14 HD
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10

another one,not of this league - 150 eu/t,0,47cycle,2 chambers and 7 HD lol
gonna try it now

I got one that can be supercharged by placing a ice block in the empty hole

Ok ok, one more time. (last time)
