[OFFICIAL] List of good reactor designs

Ok so i got this design's inspire from the no 6 reactor (yes the mark 1 that gave most eu) but i came up with a design that uses less resources and has a higher efficency(4 rather than 3 and 4 being my design)

You can even stick a breeder to it, although it will lower it's efficency a bit but still better than the original design

Hope you guys like it!

Reactor 7:
Link: Super high efficiency reactor
Eu/tick: 140
Efficiency: 7 (Uses neutron reflectors)
Cost: Iron 277, Copper 445, Tin 151, Gold 26
Credits: TheBard

Replaced the lower right corner heat exchanger with a component heat exchanger for 0 core heat balance. All credits to TheBard for a nice efficient design.

EFF 6-2 Chamber-Mk 1

C-342 T-96 I-177 G-46

120 EU/t

The key note on this one is its only 3 blocks and outputs MV so its also one less transformer if you don't have an MFSU.

Did prelimnary testing and it seems to collect minimal heat.

Its gold expensive but much easier on the normal metals than bards EFF 7 one which is what I was trying to improve. Thank the 2 chamber design on that one.

Downside is that your modification costs +4 Gold and doesn't really change anything. A reactor running with 0 heat and a reactor running with 4 heat are the same thing. Good change for people with OCD maybe. I would have never noticed it was running with 4 heat vs 0 heat though.

Edit: Although this reminds me of the first time I made a reactor in the 1.2.5 Minecraft. I found a good 0 heat reactor... and turned it on, and immediately started to panic because the thing started to heat up. I couldn't understand why a heat neutral reactor was gaining heat. So I spend a lot of time looking at the design, looking at my setup etc until I finally realized that I guess all the previous reactors had a sort of minimum "operating" temperature. Once the heat got to that level, it stayed at that level though.

I've tryed to get as mutch power per tick withoud exploding the reactor:

Mark-1 SUC-EA+
4280 EU/t
Efficiency: 5,29

I haven't tested it yet

I wondered about that, as well. Would take quite a few times running that reactor before that heat would do anything. Just doing a balancing act really

Hey i got a chest full of lapis

Huh its gone???

Boom...

Details

Actualy a dual chest full of stacks of lapis should be enough

Quote from Rick

Sure i mean it 'only' uses up 2812 lapis in a cycle and a double chest can hold 3456. But i think the problem lies elsewhere. Probably in actualy filling the chest with lapis.

4 UU = 9 Lapis. However, that also doesn't seem very cost effective.

You will need to convert 100 double chests of stuff into scrap to make enough uu for 2812 lapis. I really want to know how to do it reasonably without block breakers.

Mark 2-E EB

Base use (Reactor 4)+Heating cell (click here to see the big change :P )

Is necessary the list mark 2 ? technically are obsolete with the high power mark 1 with that new system

what do you think Rick ?

Anyone even noticed my posts???

Replacement for reactor 6: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.blueyonder.…ye885nok6zxpwxs

and you can stick a breeder to it: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.blueyonder.…wigg5afag44btvk

Iv've got this thing: (But it's actualy cheating :P)

Not sure how a 160 EU/t Eff 4 reactor is a replacement to a 420 EU/t Eff 3 reactor?

Quote from Rick

Its also way too expensive. The components are not used optimally.
Something like this is already tons better: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.blueyonder.…yjmxr1n0sh95728

That's a nice little 160 EU/t Eff 4 reactor. Why isn't that one on the list?

one Chember Breader

http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…j4ow6ofyn1kqsu1m3s8r9x2io

Cost: 52 copper, 21 tin, 75 Iron and 4 gold ingots

Infinit

yes i love on chember reactors
