    I tried a mark I reactor (no in-game screen because my reactor got divided by 0 from the reactor chambers's bug>>> disintegration :

    Heat generated : (2 * 4 * 2) *2 + (2 * 3 * 4 )=48 h/p


    Outward cooling : 6 chambers + 1 reactor : 13 + 20 water blocks :- 33 h/p


    Cooling by cooling cells : 15 >>> no heat left .


    Produces 29 EU/t . Efficiency C (2.34 ) .

    From what I have understood from the tutorial your reactor doesn't work as you wrote it (I'm an absolute beginner so it's very likely I'm also wrong ) .



    the 4 Edge Uraniums should do 3 pulses and generate 4h/pulse (2 adjectant plates) thus 12h / edge (48 h/sec all edges)


    >> If there are 2 adjectant plates then there are not 4 edges but 8 edges so 96 h/s all edges .


    and the Center ones 4 pulses, emitting 10 heat/pulse thus 40/center (80 h /sec) >>> OK


    all together: 128 h/sec. So much to the heat generation. >>>> 96 + 80 = 176



    Now to the Cooling: i've got 6 chambers and 1 reactor (2h / chamber and 1h from reactor => 13h/sec) >> Right


    The outward cooling should be: 21 air blocks /chamber and 20 air blocks for the reactor (assuming it works like watermills water calculation and they share blocks) = 146 air blocks (-3 blocks for cable and redstone) = 143 Air / 4 = 35.75 h/sec


    >> big error ? I believe the air cooling works only for the reactor not for chambers so only 20 air blocks : -5h/s .


    On the Inside we have: 24 Coolant Cells, 12 Heat dispersers and 6 reactor plating. -24h/pulse from coolant, -0.6 from the platings. (I got no idea if heat dispersers do cool themself and how fast they do, thus i leave them out for now).


    >> ok


    Full Calculation: 128 - 13 - 35.75 - 24.6 = 54.65 h/puls not dealt with.


    >> 176 - 13 - 5 - 24.6 = 133.4 h/puls not dealt with


    Distributed on all cooling cells this means: 54.65/(24+12) ~ 1.5... Which would mean, each HD and Coolant should accumulate 1.5 heat/pulse and should therefore decrease faster than the Uranium. But they dont go down.... not a bit.


    >>133.4 / 44 = 2.69 h/p ? one uranium cell lasts 10 000 s and in this case one coolant/HD lasts 10 000 / 2.69 so 3717 s ( 37% of cycle ) . All components linked absorb heat, not only cooling cell, don't it ?
