Nuclear Steam Engine

A compact nuclear reactor and steam boiler system.

Insert the fuel rods to start the system and wait for the boiler to reach 100 degrees. The generators will then begin to recharge the battery continuously.

Basic control panel for testing includes Rod and Boiler temp dials, battery and generator dials, and levers for inserting rods, control rods, and electric motor throttle.

*Be careful not to set the insertion target too low. It could cause the reactor to overheat. Setting the target too high and the system will not reach high enough temperature. You can create a more advance controller to move the control rods automatically, but I found that keeping it at 0.29 allows it to keep the system stable while maintaining boiler temp.

*If playing career you'll need uranium ingots to charge the fuel rods.
