Here are a few reactors i made focusing on efficiency, as they mainly have fairly short cycle times i would recommend using other mods such as nuclear control addon, although not required, could continue to list more but i think
Mark III EA* 140 EU/t
Mark V EA* 140 EU/t (above but cheaper)
Mark I EA++ 60 EU/t
Mark V EA++ 60 EU/t (little cheaper, although i would say get the one above)
This reactor makes 24k EU per activation, and requires about 90 seconds cool-down, using the redpower mod to automate the cooldown process this reactor can be left alone quite safely - as long as no one trips on a redstone cable, then its about 5 seconds to explode
Each 90 second tick the reactor generates 24k EU and 2400 heat to the reactor
Inside the reactor quite simple

And the redpower to prevent explosion

Timer set to 90s
Redpower repeater
NOT gate
This setup should lead to the best possible efficiency for a reactor as all the uranium is going to maximum efficiency except around the edges. As each uranium would normally last for about 160mins left online non-stop, these being online less than 1% of the time will last easily over 9000mins!! in fact they should last so long you may as well call it infinite
