Reactor design changed again xD

Those 900C Carnot steam turbines have a 31% energy-loss... like, what is the point in going from 500C to 900C if I am throwing away 31% of the energy?

Anyway, this is a 12k 500C steam turbine, I am making about 6k steam at 900C, and mixing it with 1.167x that amount of 165C steam.

computed ratio with
from sympy import symbals, solve
x = symbols('x')
solve(((1000/(1000+x))*900) + ((x/(1000 + x))*160 - 500),x)[0].evalf()

The mixer throughput is about... I'm not sure above 12k, but there are no timers, so I'd have to.... let me just dump the tank and run a test xD

~800k in ~50s, about 16k/s
@LukeAlmighty a mish mash of mods, but the core is space exploration atm.

The reactors are vanilla, the tanks, and turbine, are just scaled of versions of the vanilla stuff.

I see there is some anti-matter stuff, and other things to play with in space exploration... I'm just not far enough along to play with it xD So, I am running a really scaled up uranium reactor xD

Nice.
I am just starting to build first automated transport spaceships.
