Hah, well, it is better to put water source above reactor where it can't be evaporated, and let it flow everywhere around the reactor. This ensures constant cooling and you don't have to worry about evaporating water, since it gets replaced instantly. Read this http://forum.industrial-craft.…page=Thread&threadID=7196
Good to know that someone does actually use my designs.

Eff 1.25 (can still be considered mark 1) - http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…43f2rnbocml4esbskcghqnjeo -
1 HD less and I believe even better can be done - http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…9fuc7zm5xdiwjjbn43r0zj18g

Not even plating is needed http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…vs22y2wr7cckzi8prz0bblmbk

Or as a weapon !!! Attach that sweetheart to some serious frame spammer and send it to your neighbor !!

I just got almost completely offtopic idea. How about using framed hot reactor to evaporate whole lakes of water !!! Fully automatic !!!!!!!1!

Since when is RF-Stone inflammable?
I knew something was wrong with my negative breeder in wooden shack. -
When you have too many Lavabuckets to spare, and want to run it like a Geothermal Generator.
Or when reactor surroundings are highly flamable. -
Running SUC reactors with one chamber is risky IMHO because you have a low ignition temperature. I'd use at least one extra chamber in those case.
Also, how can you expect someones first reactor to pump 3 water buckets per second to it? That's probably not going to end well.
Lads gotta learn somehow. -
it heats up to 24/25 ticks of heat per cycle, but stays stable at that number.
If it stays at that number, it is OK. It is due to a way reactor works.

There's no trick actually, just keep the floor under the reactor, and water will flow there itself. All you need is single water source block.
-
It is possible to make falling water flow under chambers. It's not even hard.

Why, that's just stupid? He didn't post it in the wrong place.
I believe that list of bad reactor designs is about bad reactor designs, not about where they are posted. And this one is bad indeed.

I don't know what you usually see, but Sir, your design sucks. It produces only 61EU/tick.
This one is much much better and costs far less: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…8g2me6s69yvc2od0jylbp90jk
It has better efficiency and even energy distribution, since it can run all the time. But if you need bursts of energy, yoursis betterstill sucks. Go and look into good reactor designs thread.I summon you gregorius, heed my call. Include this reactor in your evergrowing list, master.

This is a new one... http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…nzcqbtamg290lxjdbe7dr2gow
(Component melted?)Look 2 posts above. In this case, component will definitely not melt. No component is able to gain 10000 heat over few secs, since max heat input would in theory be 4 * 40 + 25 = 145 per reactor tick. 4 * 40 because uranium cell surrounded by 3 another uranium cells would provide 40 heat to nearby component. 4 of those provide 4 * 40 and HD can absorb max 25 heat from hull every tick.
In this design, HD melts after about 1m 14s, which is 10730 heat absorbed if it absorbs 145 each tick. HDs at the bottom are there to help reactor survive until meltdown. Reducing their amount does not change meltdown time, so I guess my calculations are very close to reality. -
Or you can make it explode just by putting lava in.
WE NEED LAVA BUCKETS IN REACTORPLANNER ! -
I wonder why this one can run only 5 secs, while the one posted above can run 7 secs.
-
lasts only one cycle
Look again.

Here's a cold start breeder that requires liquid nitrogen external cooling.
