I had a T1DT reactor peak power production at around 820kK, and then interestingly enough the power production started to decrease beyond that? I couldn't find any documentation on the math behind that on YT/reddit at least, efficiency was still at 99%. It also seems to affect total power output, but this is also heavily dependent on the fuel combination used, as well as the temperature? Not entirely sure, see more on power below.Ĭause: If the reactor is receiving power (seems to consume power at the max rate of 8.192M rf/t) until it heats up to 8k (do all fuel combinations reactions begin at 8000kK?)Įffect: Seems like the higher the temperature, the more power was being produced.

From testing it seems to affect fuel consumption rate, but I don't know the mathematical relationship, or even if it's related to toroid size and not something else like # of electromagnets (which technically should be the same since fusion reactors are a square).The pack configs for NuclearCraft here, the only major change I see is that max toroid size is now 48 (which is a bit mad, considering 24 is already large enough).Ĭause: The radius of your fusion reactor (with the smallest being 1 with no Fusion Connectors) The modpack I used for testing and that prompted these questions is Enigmatica 2 Expert. does temperature cause more power/efficiency, so power / efficiency are positively correlated, or does it affect efficiency, and then a second calculation determines power?). My goal is to figure out which variables are used in the calculation of other variables, and which are only correlated (eg. Would you mind please verifying/editing if any of these cause/effect relationships are correct? I honestly would do it myself but I don't know java very well, if you could point my towards the classes that handle the math, I could try looking it up as well.įor sake of simplicity, a T1DT reactor is going to be shorthand for Toroid Size 1 fusion reactor using Deuterium and Tritium. Also I did some googling, and even on YouTube, I couldn't seem to find information on how construction of fusion reactors affects their overall output. Making this issue because I ran into some issues figuring out cause/effect relationship.
