#REDIRECT [[Nuclear Reactor]] |

Available as soon as you've reached the Moon (late HV-early EV - unlock the Open Computers tab), nuclear reactors are a strong power source for EV and IV. The process of creating a reactor is quite complex and risks huge nuclear explosions. You are strongly advised to try all designs in a [https://github.com/MauveCloud/Ic2ExpReactorPlanner/releases reactor planner] before using them, and to encase your reactors in reinforced materials (2 layers minimum) or warded glass (thaumcraft) to prevent explosions from destroying the area. Test your preparations in creative first! |
|||
Documentation on reactors is rather spotty, you can try asking questions in [https://discord.gg/EXshrPV the GTNH discord.] |
|||
There are two types of reactors: |
|||
'''EU reactors''' produce raw energy directly with a 50% penalty. Use cables to transform the power into the GT type. |
|||
'''Vacuum reactors''' produce EU, but rely on cooling the cells in a vacuum freezer to keep it from exploding. See the [[Vacuum Reactor]] page to find out how to use them, and also redstone automation info. |
|||
'''Wrench reactors''' are a meme, you can read about them [https://gtnh.miraheze.org/wiki/Wrench_Cooled_IC2_Fission_Reactor here] |
|||
'''Fluid reactors''' produce hot coolant. Use a [[Large Heat Exchanger]] to convert the Hot Coolant to HP steam and HP steam turbines/LP steam turbines to generate energy with very high efficiency. See the [[Fluid Reactor]] page for details. |
|||
Fuel types used are thorium, uranium, and MOX. Naquadah and naquadria rods are also available, acting like uranium and MOX rods, respectively, with longer lifetimes. |
|||
'''Thorium''' is the cheapest and easiest to obtain, obtainable in large quantities from coal ore or thorium ore found in the nether. It lasts a long time but doesn't make much power. You need to make these to get Lutetium for Americium later on. |
|||
'''Uranium''' is obtained at Mars' moons from a couple ores. It doesn't last as long as thorium, but makes more power. |
|||
'''MOX''' is obtained by mixing plutonium (from depleted uranium rods, centrifuging uranium dust, or ores on later planets) with uranium. It returns enough plutonium to sustain itself. |
|||
'''Naquadah''' and '''Naquadria''' are obtained from mid-game ores, and are generally best used in naquadah generators. |
|||
'''Tiberium''' is made with tiberium. Who knows how it works? |
|||
'''The Core''' is made with naquadah and tiberium. It's probably good, right? |
|||
'''Lithium''' fuel rods are used to make tritium in an alternate way. They turn into tritium fuel rods instead of depleted ones. |

==== Thorium ==== |
|||
* This is a 1920 EU/t Thorium reactor that requires a full set of 6 extra reactor chambers. |
