The Nuclear Reactor II is a machine which generates large amounts of Steam (High) from Water for use in generators. The machine can use 2 type of fuels: Uranium Rods and MOX Rods. The machine itself is self-sufficient with regards to power and requires no Electricity from outside sources.

Power is generated by passing the output Steam (High) though High-pressure Turbines and Low-pressure Turbines with their output shaft connected to Power Generators, typically Tier 2 variants of each. A majority of the Water can subsequently be recovered for reuse using a Cooling Tower (Large).

Heat Exchange and Overheat

See Nuclear Reactor

Automatic Regulation

If Automatic Regulation is enabled, the reactor will regulate the power level based on the heat demand. It means the power will automatically reduce when Water is empty or Steam (High) in the reactor is full. So, the regulation will prevent overheating.

However, the regulation cannot go below the first power level (X1). Emergency cooling is mandatory if Water supply or Steam (High) consumption can drop below the amount of the first level (X1). In other cases, emergency cooling is not mandatory but highly recommended.
