Coal-Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP)

    Hello everyone, today I want to show you my creation — the Angular Nuclear Power Plant (UAES). It’s not exactly a power plant, because the energy is just being dissipated, but is there energy? Yes. So it’s a power plant :)

    I’ll explain the working principle: approximately, there is a fuel base containing uranium and coal. Why is there coal? To increase efficiency and prevent overheating (the temperature even with coal exceeds 9,000 degrees). This mixture contacts the heaters, which heat up to 7,500–8,000 degrees. They heat the water, which is smoothly replenished by cloners. The water turns into steam and goes through pipes. Inside the pipes, there are detectors, from which tungsten heat-energy-dissipators go into a special sealed compartment with loose coal, which absorbs all the heat, and it dissipates heat very, very stably. The temperature on the dissipators and the coal fluctuates by about 0.15 degrees.

    Well, that's basically it. Now let’s move on to recommendations so you don’t break the reactor:

    1. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, TOUCH THE FUEL STORAGE. The coal and uranium are in a perfect balance, and the slightest disturbance can lead to the destruction of the heaters. The water will stop evaporating, will start flowing out of the pipes, and will leak onto the heat-dissipators. Due to the temperature difference, they will melt, dissolve the roof of the active zone, and then the fuel storage. In the best case, you'll ruin the fuel and repeat Chernobyl.

    2. Do not plug the pipe. The steam will instantly accumulate, create enormous pressure, and can blow up the reactor.

    3. NEVER, EVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CHANGE THE WALLS TO DIAMOND, ESPECIALLY IN THE FUEL STORAGE. I once did that, and I got two singularities that destabilized themselves and absorbed everything.

    4. Do not pour water onto the heat-sink in places where it doesn't directly contact it. It will melt and can catch fire due to the monolithic structure of the molten heat-dissipators.

    5. Do not place metallic elements inside the active zone or within the foundation pipe. Everything will melt and ruin the aesthetics, and it might even leak into the fuel storage.

    Well, that's basically it. I hope you like my CNPP :)

    Please upload the save to the official The Powder Toy server. I've removed the Google Drive link again similar to your other post.
