  • We take a look at the reactor from Mekanism, and how to keep it running and producing insane amounts of power. We address the production of Deuterium, Tritium and D-T Fuel. And we talk about how to keep the reactor up and running at night when the Solar Neutron Activator shuts down due to lack of sunlight, and how to collect heavy water.

    I know this is old and maybe you mention it in some other video but I wanted to leave this note here. If you are building your fusion reactor near your evaporators you can sent some of that heat over to them and remove the resistive heaters and have them running at 100% any time of day and probably in any biome. Their temp readouts get silly after a while.

Refined Storage doesn’t look aesthetically good compared to AE2. It’s just plain false that it’s copied. Every mod to does massive storage in a computer sense of way, looks like AE2. Problem here is just that AE2 is longer around, which causes the effect that people don’t like to leave the things they are used too.

    Hey dude, I built your overkill fusion reactor setup on a local creative testing world in a desert on 1.10.2. I have tested your setup on an injection rate of 98 (which seems to be the maximum) and I think I got the results. I noticed that you can generate over 9 MRf/t for a good while, but then the deuterium bar in the reactor says it's empty. No problems with the tritium though. Weirdly enough, the fusion reaction did not stop at all. I've waited for about 6 or so minecraft days and now the reactor seems to have stabilized at 7.95 MRf/t.
    I don't know how this happened, but it MIGHT have been me, because I did have some small issues when trying to change the power source for the machinery used in your setup (I was trying to switch from the the mekanism creative energy block to the enderio piled up vibrant capacitor banks which are charged by the reactor. It was mainly cable work, because the machinery went out for a while until I managed to fix it by changing the cable coming out of the capacitor banks to normal configuration instead of the PULL configuration which I put it on).
    I'm definitely not sure if it actually was because of the little stop though. This is a great setup, definitely will build in survival, thank you! :)
    P.S. I subbed to your channel.

    • @oblyx
      @oblyx  6 років тому +1

      +Roger Aydin I'm glad to hear you got it up and running. It's a beast for power production. If the reactor stayed lit but showed no deuterium I'd lean toward a rendering glitch. Especially if you were changing cables at the time. A case of it's there but doesn't show kinda thing. What mod pack were you using?
      Vibrant capacitors are good, but make sure to check out the Mekanism power storage. It's even more beastly than the reactor.

    • @rogeraydin908
      @rogeraydin908 6 років тому +1

      oblyx First of all, thanks for responding man! And secondly, I don't use any modpack, it's just a custom modded minecraft instance with 57 mods I downloaded myself. And I know the mekanism storage is better, but I don't yet know how that fully works and i'll be sure to watch your video about that. So yeah, that's why I went with the vibrant capacitors.
      Also, the cable work I mentioned was just switching from mekanism's creative energy block to the enderio vibrant capacitors which got charged by the reactor. I spotted some ender energy conduits (I thought I was placing down ultimate universal cables while switching, but I found out I wasn't, after which I facepalmed), which is likely the reason why the machinery went out for a little while, because those cables can only hold like 20k RF/t which is obviously far too low for that many machines.
      Once I replaced them with ultimate universal cables and output on the cable from the capacitors was at normal configuration istead of pull configuration, everything worked fine.
      Keep up the good vids by the way! :)

    Great video, thank you! I appreciate and understand the desire for overkill on all the things :) I did want to point out that according to the documentation on the wiki, it takes between 600 and 800M RF to ignite the reactor. Not 2B.
    Did you ever leave the reactor running at full capacity and start to remove some of the fuel creation to determine how much you needed to maintain? I'd be curious what that looked like. I'm also curious if there are any long-term effects of running at such a higher temp. There isn't a meltdown mechanic built in yet, it seems. Curious if the pack owner will implement one in v10.

    • @oblyx
      @oblyx  6 років тому +1

      +Adam Rasmussen I've built many of these over the years on several different servers. It's no problem running hot. As far as fuel there are several sever side variables that control it that pack devs tend to tweak. So one pack a smaller setup may work over another pack. Especially HQM's that affect temp. But i haven't met a pack yet that that setup wouldn't work for. However I'm sure there are some. Aiden the primary dev for Mek hasn't announced such a change that I've seen. But if he does we adapt. To me the change is what makes modded fun.

    I have a couple questions about the Thermal Evaporation Plants.
    1) In the video, you mention they are "fully upgraded". What does that mean exactly? I'm worried I may be missing some upgrade options on mine.
    2) What value did you set your Resistive Heaters to? I currently set mine to 200RF/t, but I'm not sure if that's overkill, not enough, just right? I know it probably depends, but my setup is in a desert like yours.
    3) If I wanted to heat the Thermal Evaporation Plants with heat from the reactor, do I simply add another Reactor Port to the reactor and run a Thermodynamic Conductor line out to the Thermal Evaporation Valves? If yes, do the Thermodynamic Conductor lines lose heat over longer distances, i.e. If the reactor is 300 blocks away, will it still work?
    Thanks!

      For water-cooled reactors, just pump in water through a port, and steam out through another. Even with a medium turbine (5*5*7 iirc) you will produce multiple times the power of the reactor itself. At that point you'll have to switch to a Quantum entangloporter or other unlimited energy transfer devices because except for stellar alloy wires from enderIO I know no direct energy transfer methods to transport this much energy.

    From reading up on all available resources, feed the beast wiki has a great breakdown of the potential power output and efficiency of various sizes of Industrial turbines, but for greatest steam production and power output this also requires piping heat from the Reactor to a Thermoelectric boiler that is matched both to the Reactor's injection rate and the resulting steam output that will drive the Industrial Turbine... and I cannot find any resources at all on how to match the Thermoelectric Boiler size to the Industrial Turbine size.
    If you tackled that setup it would be awesome!

    ok no idea why he has 6 thermal evaporation plants unless something changed. I run 2, one for brine and 1 for lithium, then 3 condensentrators feeding 3 solar neutron activators for the tritium, and 6 electrolytic separators for the deuterium and I can run this at full 98 injection rate 24/7 feeding a turbine producing 25MJ/t of power. I have yet to even scratch the power output. 99% of the time my turbine shuts down because my induction matrix is full lol. good thing this one can't explode (already blew up a fission reactor making the polonium to build this one lol) mekasuit rocks :)

    That's an insane amount of power - rofl - and one hell of a stress test, I was expecting a boom, or meltdown of some description, or at least proximity to the reactor causing injury (even in creative - lol). I imagine a future version will introduce some such 'consequences' for pushing things too far. Quick question - does water cooling make much difference to performance?

    Mekanism is one of the more interesting and useful tech mods, but there's crapton of stuff to do and learn. This fusion especially seems like one of the most compicated and work intensive generators out there. Even the draconic evolution (I think it was called that) fusions/super genrator was not this bad. It needed tons of stuff, but it was fairly simple in the end.
    I think when this is done with AE2 and extra cells that allows you to store gasses in AE system it could be pretty feasible to do, you can store all your gasses and monitor usage.

    The reactor ports I am connecting to are placed properly in the middle, the universal cables mate up, but will not turn green (draw power) regardless of whether I use the configurator on the cable to pull from the port or push to an empty ultimate energy cube or just leave it default/unconfigurated.

I've only been able to test it for a little bit so I'll have to do further testing. Also, it could have been how I setup the tritium storage. Another thing it could have been was the injection rate. I read on some forum post that I needed to have one thermal evaporation tower of brine for every injection rate. The only issue I have with that is your video doesn't have a problem with injection rate. I've concluded that person must of had a different setup than yours. Today, I'm going to try and see if I can run the fusion reactor at max settings and see if it fails.
