Also if you dont mind burning spare coolant cells this design:

might be for you it will burn 4 of the coolant cells away each cycle in return for little required cooldown time after each (as long as you replace them)
good if you have spare tin and an extractor but want less hassle

After 2000 ticks those 4 coolants get destroyed, and there are 2 cells on the side that have 4000 heat in them. You'll have to wait, or let them cool down. So you generate energy for 2000 ticks, and cool down for at least 4000 ticks. (50*2000 / 6000) = 16 EU/t, of course you could always just remove those overburdened coolant cells and make new ones.

The OP seemed to want to just leave it there and run, how ever, and your design is a Mark IV (About 20% of a full cycle,) meaning it will need to be maintained at least once, because there are broken components. As soon as those 4 cells are destroyed, massive heat is fed through the system.

These still don't work, the coolant cells around the uranium cells still overheat at 5 heat per tick. At that rate it 'pratically' needs to be surrounded by integrated dispersers.

You are looking for a Mark I reactor.

Just throw a uranium cell in there, and you're ready to go. If it's surrounded by water as you say, plop 3 of those bad boys in there, but make sure they arn't next to each other. That'll produce 3 million EU total at 15 EU per tick.

Of course, that isn't too efficient, so we have to ask for some criteria:

1) How important is efficiency? Do you mind getting 1 million EU per uranium cell, or do you want 2.33 million EU per uranium cell?
2) How important is EU/t? Do you want to get 15 EU per tick, or do you want to get 55 EU per tick? Do you want to run 4 miners simultaneously, or do you just want to use the energy for whatever you need, whenever. Mass fabrication needs? More over less?

The hardest part about managing a reactor is actually using the energy it produces.

I'm sorry about that, I was working in the theory crafter all day and got tunnel vision.

Here is a copy paste from another thread. These two should work perfectly.

Vendan's MK 1 - EC -4 Chambered +/- 0 Heat

OCAdam's MK 1 - EC -3 Chambered +/- 0 Heat +6 blank slots

This one is also more efficient, 8 panels, +2 chambers.

Hello, I've been experimenting with http://test.vendaria.net/ , and the following layout is entirely theoretical.

http://test.vendaria.net/index…CHCCHCCCHCCCHCCHCCCHCCCHC

EU/t : 40 35
Eff : 2.66 - 2.33
Uranium Cells : 3
Depleted Isotope Cells : 1
Cooling Cells : 34
Integrated Heat Disperser : 16

Can anyone tell me if it actually works like this? I'm installing Too Many Items right now to experiment with it myself.

Scratch everything, it seems that the vendaria site doesn't provide an accurate energy representation of -iso cells.

Also, don't forget that there are more efficient MK 1 reactors out there, usually fitting into a smaller space. One of these provides almost as much energy as two of the C-4s.
