Fission Reactors

You may find Warbaque's fantastic Reactor Planner is helpful and fun.
It's README.md also has good reactor plan solutions for various optimisation goals.

High Pressure Loop: Advanced Boiler* Heat Exchanger

* or Fission Reactor... which is a pretty advanced way to boil water, don't you think?

High Pressure Loop High Pressure Loop

Fuel and Water go in, Steam comes out, and HP water re-circulates

A pressurizer is needed to initially prime the loop with HP water. It won't take much, as 125mB of HP water takes up 16 times as much volume when turned to HP steam (2,000mB).

Tip

If you are running (and thus boiling) HP water or HP heavy-water through a fission reactor, a small portion will be converted to Deuterium or Tritium, and this amount will need to be continually replaced.
