dpc3 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 I love how much complexity is in this game. With a nuclear reactor, one of the "special and unique" things that adds to complexity is the decay heat. That is, the fact that just because you shut it down, it does not stop producing heat, and has to continue to be cooled for a fairly long period of time following shutdown. This also holds true for the spent fuel (nuclear waste) I would like to see the reactors heat production have a slow logarithmic drop in it following the automation stop signal, like decay heat. I would also like to see the nuclear waste come out of the reactor at a very high temperature with a very low thermal conductivity. this could simulate decay heat of the spent fuel to where you have to manage a long term cooling solution for it!

Sasza22 Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 It would make those things more realistic so i like it as long as it`s properly explained that it still needs to be cooled. Make it produce heat for 1 cycle after shut down to simpliy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
