Fluid Reactor: Difference between revisions

This guide offers a brief overview of the components of a fluid reactor. The high level idea behind a fluid reactor system is: hot coolant is created by passing regular ic2 coolant through a (heat-generating) fluid reactor. The hot coolant is cooled down and recycled with distilled water in a [[Large Heat Exchanger]]. As a result of this process, the Large Heat Exchanger creates absurd amounts of either steam or superheated steam, which is then passed in through an appropriate [[Steam Turbines|Large Turbine]] to turn it into usable EU.

The large[[Large heatHeat exchangerExchanger]] converts hot coolant and distilled water to coolant and either steam or superheated steam depending on how much hot coolant is feed into the exchanger, see the large heat exchanger [[Large_Heat_Exchanger|page]] for full details. You should keep a small buffer of coolant and a way to restore coolant automatically as some can be lost on reactor heat up.
