This is a fairly compact 160MW nuclear setup that doesn't use an excessive amount of storage tanks. Under normal usage it can easily buffer a complete fuel cycle - perhaps this post is more intended as a demonstration that heaps of steam tanks are ...Use the energy interface that you can set to various power draws. It is easy to make a moderated reactor that works fine at low loads or at full load, but has power drops at 95% load due to the time the reactors take to warm back up. You need to make sure your steam buffer is large enough to handle the power draw during the warm-up time.Just a FYI, it is actually possible to set up a tileable reactor that has 2x4 as a base. One reactor is 5x5. So 2x1 is 5 tall. 2x2 is 10 tall. 3x2 is 15 tall. 4x2 is 20 tall. One Heat Exchanger column consisting of Pipe, Heat Exchanger, Heat Pipe is 4 tiles wide. You can get 5 such columns each side of a 2x4 reactor setup.A steam engine in Factorio produces 510kW of power - which is fair - but nuclear fission has roughly 1-million times the energy density of coal and oil. ie, in line with the real-world examples I have given. I think that these nuclear reactors are significantly underwhelming.Mar 8, 2021 ... The new youtube uploader is pretty un-friendly so this description will always be the same from now on! If I'm using a modpack or something ...hope you guys enjoy this blueprint and maybe it'll help inspire other more creative designs and challenge others to design a better tile-able compact design. Blueprint Images: 1: 1/2 of 2x6 reactor/heat exchanger. 2: Nuclear Water Unloading. 3: 152 turbine setup.Fuel is inserted simultaneously into all reactors when steam drops below 50% storage. A constant combinator is included with each reactor that sets the desired amount of steam the control behavior adjusts itself automatically as sections are added to the reactor. Ha so yes buffering steam to mete out nuclear fuel use totally works and is fun.HOW TO USE. Place the blueprint. Connect the pipes at the bottom of the screenshot to 6 offshore pumps. Make sure that none of the medium power poles are connected to your …Smart: insert fuel only when steam storage is low, no waste. Compact: the full 4 core plant is one of the more compact design. Setup: After connecting water, setting up fuel with belt, you need to manually insert 1 fuel into each reactor core to kickstart the plant. I didn't implement more complicate logics so this can be combinator-free.The idea is to find a longish lake with lots of room around it, landfill it except for two trenches, and then add rows of nuclear plants as desired. Each 'tile' is 2x2 reactors in the center and on each side 3 pumps feeding 32 exchangers feeding 55 turbines, for 640MW per tile: Reactors & Heat exchangers: Core is simply 2x2 reactors fed by two ...This video showcases a smart and easy design that works quite well for your Nuclear Reactor in Factorio, it only gives the reactor 1 piece of Uranium cell so...Realistic Reactors. Add realistic nuclear reactors including a breeder reactor type and cooling tower. The reactors must be controlled through integrated circuit interface signals. The thermal energy output is dynamic and depends on reactor core temperature. The reactors require sophisticated designs of their cooling system and heat-pipe network.4 reactors alone is 4 reactors alone. 2 2 reactor set-ups with worth 8 reactors alone. a 2 by 2 reactor set-up is worth 12. That's 8 vs 12. or 50% more or 33% less. depending on what you consider the default. So we were both wrong.So a single offshore pump can only pump 1200 water/second. A basic 2x2 nuclear power plant built to ratio needs 5 offshore pumps to operate at full capacity. While you can theoretically combine all 5 of these offshore pumps in to one pipe with lots of pumps, it is a much easier problem to simply feed your nuclear power plant water from 5 ...Before you can burn it in a nuclear reactor, you need to create uranium fuel cells. You'll probably be using an assembling machine 2, so these will take 13.3 seconds to create as well. ... the heat from the reactor does not travel fast enough to heat the pipe to beyond 500ºC in a running setup. However, if the heat is unused, the heat will ...My 100% efficient tileable nuclear recator I've spent 50h designig and testing. It's capable of starting and continues operation under constant load, but due to the water requirement requires pumps evey 6 pipes to keep it fully operational. (built in and tested in Blueprint Snadboxes mod) Single module of the reactor produces 1,12GW.Stats:The setup features four reactors with the ocd-friendly ratio 4:48:84:6 in reactors : heat exchangers : turbines : pumps (optimal would be 4:48:83:5), generating 480MW. Core Functionality: Each reactor contains a maximum of two fuel cells at any time to make sure we are not wasting any fuel. There are enough tanks to take all the gas the ...Personally, i made my reactor setup 'smart'. Each reactor ( i dont use much power so i only have 4) has 3 separate tanks. First one is a overflow for the second, when the second begins draining the reactor is fed a fuel rod, and when the third begins draining the next reactor kicks in with the same 3 tank setup (and so on)Use the energy interface that you can set to various power draws. It is easy to make a moderated reactor that works fine at low loads or at full load, but has power drops at 95% load due to the time the reactors take to warm back up. You need to make sure your steam buffer is large enough to handle the power draw during the warm-up time.Nice looking 16 Reactors Setup. It can work at 2.5 GW for nearly entire hour then it drops at 2.4-2.3 GW (Game can't decide is it 2,4 either 2.3 GW). It took me 6 hours o_0. Entire powerplant. Of course if you want it to look like it /\ you must do it manually. I didnt use any circuts (Becasue I can't :P) so fell free to upgrade this blueprint ;)Nuclear setup 12 reactors. by Darqbit » Thu May 18, 2017 11:52 pm. Hi everyone ! My friend gedeon and i used to build this nuclear setup and i want to share it with you ! Cause it's beautiful to see. 12 Reactors, 176 heat exchangers, 16 Offshore pumps, 303 steam turbines for a 1760MW total energy. Map with electric filter. Electric Map Overview.4 Reactor Nuclear Setup. Pretty proud of this. I was going to make a 2X2 design myself, but after seeing how good this one was there was no need. Instead I have taken yours and made it an iterative design, expandable from one to four reactors. This is done by just adding parts of your blueprint iterativley.Details. 2x2 setup with storage tanks. Need to do the circuits for inserter logic since this was made on a website, not in game.

When two powered reactors are side-by-side, that same single nuclear reactor is now 80MW, or 8 exchangesand 14 turbines respectively. Then add the output of the other reactor and the power ...Jan 7, 2018 ... In this episode, I set up a logic circuit to control the consumption of nuclear fuel cells. It is based on monitoring how much steam is ...A single uranium processing centrifuge can supply one reactor with enough U235, once you have kovarex, a single enrichment centrifuge with 2 speed modules can power 6.66 reactors. The fuel consumption of reactors is so low, you're unlikely to ever burn through a single uranium patch if you don't use any for weapon.Reactor row control. Reactor row control. The reactor row control is also quite simple. The inserter "1" is set up to insert a single nuclear fuel cell into the reactor whenever the inserter "2" removes an empty fuel cell. Both inserters have a stack size limit of 1.A Screenshot of Factorio. By: Gnarl. #1. PunCrathod Jan 18, 2022 @ 2:45pm. A screenshot of the nuclear setup and the electricity network screen (left click a power pole with empty hand) would be helpful. #2. Gnarl Jan 18, 2022 @ 2:46pm. I will take a screenshot of the graph next mb. #3.This is using a special turbine that condenses the steam to water as it generates power. So this will generate many tankfuls of steam before it runs out of energy. I believe there is a 1% loss of water (turbine turns 100 steam into 99 water + power), so it will eventually need to top up, just not for a long time.As of this writing, power output for a single nuclear reactor is 40MW, which equates to approximately 4 heat exchanges and 7 turbines at full output. When two powered reactors are side-by-side, that same single nuclear reactor is now 80MW, or 8 exchangesand 14 turbines respectively.

Internal name. nuclear-power. Required technologies. Allows. Effects. The nuclear power research allows the basic construction of nuclear reactors which are complex to set up but have a high energy density.A 2x2 produces 480MW and every pair of reactors tacked on the end is another 320MW. That's the true limit of your nuclear design. Nuclear components work at full strength down to ~500C and a smart reactor typically operates from 600-700C. Losing a little heat isn't a problem as long as it reaches an equilibrium point.Experiment 3: Finding the limit. I created a bunch of setups that looked like this, fed them infinite cells, then I found the maximum length of pipe which had all heat exchangers running at 103/103 steam generation. 1 reactor (40MW): 139 tiles. 1 reactor (40MW) with double width pipes: 215 tiles.I this setup, the four outside corners have a 50% bonus, and the 4 reactors immediately diagonal-inwards of them have a 100% bonus. The rest have a 75% bonus. The only reason this setup works is because Bob's Adjustable Inserters allows that mass of inserters in the center to service the entire inner ring.Prototype type. assembling-machine. Internal name. centrifuge. Required technologies. Produced by. The Centrifuge processes uranium ore and splits it into uranium-235 and uranium-238.

Of course if you want it to look like it /\ you must do it manually. I didnt use any circuts (Becasue I can't :P) so fell free to upgrade this blueprint ;)I think there will be a water throughput problem once you have a high load - the six water pipes coming from north all connect in the upper part of the setup, leaving the heat exchangers in the south without enough water. Somewhat off-topic, but the Factorio nuke plants seem strangely inefficient compared to real life.Consider isolating a 2x3 section and make everything it needs fit in the vertical space of the 3 reactors. Then you can make it tileable. You can fit the water pumps for each 2x3 reactor inline too, either with "safe waterfill" mod, water pumpjacks mod, or just building the nuclear power plant on a lake with a lot of landfill.A 2x2 reactor setup gets 3x neighbor bonuses on each reactor, giving you 12 reactors worth of output. This seems to be the sweet spot--it's a huge improvement on a lone reactor or 1x2 reactor, but diminishing returns kick in hard above 2x2. A 4x2 setup produces 28 reactors of output--2.33x the heat for 2x the cost.While its uses a lot more heatpipes and can handle only 477.24MW, but bit more compact. Its only 36 x 58/60, which is 228/221kW/tile compared to 217kW/tile of your design. It's also buildable from outside with included roboport and can be tiled. This is a compact 46x48 and cheap to make 2x2 Nuclear Reactor. 480W constant/ 489W peak.72 tanks, 85 turbines. This is "the flawless to absurd" setup because it counters all problems with drops of maximum available performance during powering up cycle — it has enough buffer capacity to sustain pressure and give reactor time to heat up for distant exchangers, and it is operating with 2 control rods in each reactor — so if you ...As of this writing, power output for a single nuclear reactor is 40MW, which equates to approximately 4 heat exchanges and 7 turbines at full output. When two powered reactors are side-by-side, that same single nuclear reactor is now 80MW, or 8 exchangesand 14 turbines respectively. Then add the output of the other reactor and the …At DSS1 u get antimatter reactor (like nuclear) which is capable of heating up to 5000C. Process cost alot of energy but a 2x2 reactor is energy positive. Best source in SE is generally solar especially in orbit or every strong solar surface. The red panels are very powerful since they can generate 800kw as base.Realistic Reactors. Add realistic nuclear reactors including a breeder reactor type and cooling tower. The reactors must be controlled through integrated circuit interface signals. The thermal energy output is dynamic and depends on reactor core temperature. The reactors require sophisticated designs of their cooling system and heat-pipe network.Tileable Nuclear setup (v4) by Aeternus » Fri May 25, 2018 7:44 pm. Short version: - Tileable design expandable into infinity as long as terrain permits. - Requires landfilling. Works well with tall but narrow stretches of water. - Throttled design, reactors will only be active when more steam production is needed.Factorio Blueprint book with all blueprints from Nilaus's Master Class series ...

All i have is 1 assembler making Uranium Fuel Cells for 3x 1GW Nuclear Plants (BP found on this reddit for an 8x Reactor setup = 1GW each, finding big enough lakes to build it in without a water tile mod is the biggest challenge).May 13, 2017 · another nuclear setup - 8 reactors. by MicFac » Sat May 13, 2017 2:42 pm. The setup should produce over 1.1 GW, 8 reactors to 112 heat exchangers to 196 stream turbines. Note that you shouldn't make the water pipes too long, according to this post. the fuel inserters are circuit controlled because reactors use up fuel even when theres enough ...actually you are right. i changed my nuclear reactor midway by putting it mirrored together, removing four reactors in the process (the end block of each that now touches) i could squish two additional reactors in the middle to fully saturate the blue belts, but that would result in a rather complicated un-barreling station.Due to the complexity and unpredictability of the Factorio fluid system, the circuit regulation system is not 100% perfect if the demand on the reactor rapidly changes from sustained low load (0-500 MW) to sustained high load (1.2-1.4 GW). I remember running into a similar problem when designing my own 12-reactor setup.The Condenser Turbine is a structure unlocked by the technology Condenser Turbine. It is described as having "75% the efficiency of a steam turbine but 99% of the steam used is returned as water." The Condenser Turbine technology also unlocks a recipe for condensing steam to water in a chemical plant, allowing you to save 165 degrees C waste ...Find blueprints for the video game Factorio.

Compact 800 MW Nuclear Reactor with Auto Throttling. In all its glroy. Here's my take on a 2x3 800 MW Nuclear Reactor. 2x3 seemed like a good compromise to me between getting some 300% neighbor bonuses and before the space and heat pipe issues that come with 2x4. The design is tested to sustain 800 MW, the maximum theoretical output for 2x3.The idea is to find a longish lake with lots of room around it, landfill it except for two trenches, and then add rows of nuclear plants as desired. Each 'tile' is 2x2 reactors in the center and on each side 3 pumps feeding 32 exchangers feeding 55 turbines, for 640MW per tile: Reactors & Heat exchangers: Core is simply 2x2 reactors fed by two ...Well, the main point that you should be focusing is that accumulators are good for storing solar energy to spend at night. Nuclear is so cheap that you dont really need to have accumulators for energy storage. The reason we use Steam tanks is that the uranium fuel cell gets used 100% in 200 seconds no matter your energy needs.I did a similar setup (posted in another nuclear thread) where I used 4 chests with a token for a multi reactor setup. The 4 chest signal 4 states: 1) steam is low. 2) all reactors have at least one fuel ready. 3) insert fuel (kind of a dummy state but 4 chests form a circle) 4) spend fuel removed from all reactors.Stats:The setup features four reactors with the ocd-friendly ratio 4:48:84:6 in reactors : heat exchangers : turbines : pumps (optimal would be 4:48:83:5), generating 480MW. Core Functionality: Each reactor contains a maximum of two fuel cells at any time to make sure we are not wasting any fuel. There are enough tanks to take all the gas the ...Re: Scalable Nuclear Power Plant. by MeduSalem » Fri Nov 03, 2017 5:52 pm. pieppiep wrote: At the moment I'm not investigating it anymore, since an infinite*2 array with reactors would give 160MW each reactor and with 2*4 reactors the setup would give 28*40/8/160*100 = 87.5% efficiency for your uranium. If you look at a normal map and ...Infinitely Tileable Nuclear Reactor Design. I came up with this reactor design after looking at the heat exchanger and turbine requirements of a nuclear reactor as the number of reactors increased. For a 2xN reactor (the most efficient one in vanilla), the heat exchanger count maxes out at 16 per reactor and the turbine count is 27 per reactor.This will result in your reactor only being able to output 426.24 MW of the 480 MW it produces. 3 more turbines at each under-consumed bank will get you up to full capacity (though if you go with just 2 to maintain symmetry, you'll still get 472.8 MW out of it).4 roboports. Overview. Symmetrical with the exception of one arithmetic combinator and plenty room for walking. Production. Produces ~1.1GW. Tested with many laser turrets, radars and bots. Closer look at one half. You could copy paste one side to create the another, with the exception of outside water piping. Fuel control.In stage three, even a small uranium patch will yield enough nuclear fuel that you can run a 1GW (8 reactor) setup for HUNDREDS of hours. A 1GW "unregulated" setup uses 8 u238 every 200 sec, meaning one every 25 sec. You can keep up with this rate with just a handful of centrifuges making u235/238.Want more Captain of Industry Tutorials?: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnIE0W-m629exSS9LlJc5S-aRo2poUj0tCheck Nuclear The Complete Guide here: http...Factorio Nuclear Power Plant Calculator. This layout produces 40 MW output ( 1 SRE, 40 MW per reactor). 40 MW of power output is consumed by 4 Heat Exchangers ( 10 MW per Heat Exchanger ). 4 Heat Exchangers boil 412.36 Water to Steam per second ( 103.09 per Heat Exchanger ). 412.36 Water requires 1 ( 0.34) Offshore Pumps ( 1200 per Offshore Pump ).Details. 4x4 setup nuclear.

In the map view, turn on the 'power connections' option and zoom into the level before you get vision around your character. Check that the reactor area is connected outside itself, and follow that connection until you hit a production area or the main base or whatever big power consumer is closest.Alternatively some lines could be bigger than the others, and by mixing fluid flow at the end you can get your perfect steam turbine ratio. A 4 core reactor needs at least 5 pumps of water. I would suggest 6-8 for water pumps for cleaner ratios, as over building on water is cheaper than overbuilding on anything else.The easiest way to get water to your nuclear plant is to simply place your nuclear plant in the water. Or to be more specific, landfill a huge bay and save just enough water for some offshore pumps. Closeup of my 2xn setup: https://ibb.co/99tmTYC. Zoomed out view: https://ibb.co/WzdJRx2.Factorio version: 1.1. Downloaded by: 725 users. This mod adds a several early game nuclear technologies, buildings, and items. There are now two earlier tiers of nuclear reactor, and a lower tier of heat pipe/heat exchanger that will work from the beginning of the game. This is facilitated by a low tech centrifuge system and loose uranium ore ...Secondly, fluids at high throughputs lose pressure according to number of pipe tiles. Replace the final stretch of pipe leading to the exchangers with more undergrounds. It's a 4-reactor setup alright, but those heat exchangers only consume 160MW. 2/3 of your heat is wasted, this setup would be ideal for 2 reactors.I have some trouble with my nuclear setup. I've built a 4 reactor setup, checked the ratios here on the wiki and on YouTube 4 reactors, 48 heat exchangers, 83 turbines, 6 water pumps. I have plenty of fuel, its produces around 480MW as it should be. But time to time it dips down under satisfaction, well below 150M, the usage is around 200MW.Community-run subreddit for the game Factorio made by Wube Software. ... On your second point, I normally set up a single reactor as soon as I get the research, and simply don't power my main setup until all 4-8 reactors have an empty cell in them. ... Inserters will feed a nuclear reactor until 5 fuel cells are in the input slot, so in the ...Previously, you energy usage (hence the amount of heat being pull out of your reactor) was lower so your entire nuclear setup buffered that extra heat until it reached 1000 degree (at which point it magically disappeared instead of exploding radioactive fallout all over your base). TLDR: you're now using all the heat produced by your reactor.add small buffer for extra u238, at first you produce more than you consume, use extra for example in uranium ammo. before kovarex, each centrifuge can support 1 reactor. setup nuclear fuel production, in:u238+u235+iron, out:fuel_cells. build 2x2 reactor, in:fuel_cells, out:465~480MW+empty_cells (make storage for empty cells) later setup ...Important to note that this reactor can only be built on water and landfill, to allow the offshore pumps to be placed before filling the rest, and they can't be later removed. Recommendation: Place the steam pipe after the first set of turbines. This reduces the pressure on that pipe and makes it balance better. 15.You might want to take a look to a reactor setup a few threads below in this forum section (2x6 tileable Nuclear Reactor 1.76 GW) and see how it solves the above things. It solves everything I mentioned above, as well as all of what you mentioned as disadvantages. Look at that included screenshot with the 156 reactors for 24.8 GW.Because a continuous supply of uranium fuel cell is critical to maintaining a nuclear reactor, the circuit network can be used to set up a system where uranium-235 and uranium-238 are conserved for the production of nuclear fuel before other uses.Re: [1.1.57] Nuclear reactor suddenly got -i °C temperature. by ignatio » Wed Apr 20, 2022 12:28 am. Yes, that's fair enough. It didn't cause any lasting effects either, once I rebuilt the heatpipe network. I'm a bit curious how the temperature can take on a value that gets written out as "-i".Ideal in the sense that it is infinitely scalable (provided you have the long lake) by being repeatedly tiled, in a 2xN setup. This one is not exactly perfect, but it works very well. Basically, it is half of a 2x4 reactor line, with the reactors in a 2x2 square. Simply rotate the BP 180 degrees and plop it down again to create the 2x4.Once warmed up no component in the setup will go below 500c. Heat pipes, exchangers, or reactors. If you add new, cold components to the setup they will draw heat off and drop things below 500c, but they will all warm back up to 500c eventually with reactors operating. That's the only exception.A nuclear reactor always fully burns a fuel cell, releasing 8GJ (or more with the multiple reactor bonus) even if power demand is lower. The excess energy can be stored as steam. ... The majority of machines in Factorio consume electricity. There are two aspects to a machine's energy use. Energy consumption - The energy consumed by the ...Re: Nuclear Reactor Logic connectivity. by Zavian » Tue Sep 18, 2018 9:46 am. I add a few steam tanks, and set the inserter removing fuel cells to only activate if steam is below 15k per tank. I connect the inserters adding fuel to the inserters removing fuel and set them to only activate when the removing inserter has grabbed an empty fuel cell.The heat pipe can transport heat over longer distances and connect devices which produce and use heat. Currently this is limited to heat exchangers and nuclear reactors . Heat pipes have a heat capacity of 1 MJ/°C. Thus, they can theoretically buffer 500 MJ of heat energy across their working range of 500°C to 1000°C, making them a space ...In stage three, even a small uranium patch will yield enough nuclear fuel that you can run a 1GW (8 reactor) setup for HUNDREDS of hours.

Short version: - Tileable design expandable into infinity as long as terrain permits. - Requires landfilling. Works well with tall but narrow stretches of water. - Throttled design, reactors will only be active when more steam production is needed.Also, you might want to remember that nuclear reactors receive a 100% bonus in generating power when placed next to other reactors, so you might ideally want to group them together. Overall a completely optimized setup to generate nuclear power is having 292 nuclear reactors, 400 offshore pumps, 4656 heat exchangers and 8000 steam turbines.As U-235 is created in centrifuges running uranium processing with p = 0.007, the expected number of processing cycles to gain a single unit is E (1,p) = 1 ÷ p = ~143. The expected number of cycles to gain 40 units is then E (40,p) = 40 × E (1,p) = ~5,714 cycles. Note that running this many cycles requires mining 57,140 uranium ore, a non ...In my first 0.15 game I used nuclear power with a few reactors before I accessed kovarex.
