Conducting in extreme conditions

  • tungmetal     14th Feb 2017 Member 0 Permalink

    I'm building a DEUT-URAN reactor and i need some advice.

    How can i conduct electricity in high temperatures and with high pressure? 

    INST doesn't work because PSCN and NSCN melt at a very low temperature.

    TUNG becomes BMTL easily under pressure.

    Is MERC the best solution?

     

     

     

    And i don't really understand how my cooling system works. Every time i activate or deactivate the PUMP the temperature of the reactor drops by a few degrees. Why?

    Keep trying to insulate the PSCN/NSCN from heat properly. It can be done with PSCN/NSCN if you add enough INSL. In the image above the DEUT transfers heat (diagonally) to the CRMC and that fries the PSCN/NSCN. Try to fix that.

     

    You could then spark the PSCN/NSCN from afar using ARAY through FILT. That's just an idea though.

     

    As for the cooling ... upload it so we can see the cooling for ourselves.

    When you spark PSCN or NSCN, it tries to lower the temperature to around 30C. Maybe that's cooling it down just a bit?

    I have replicated it, and it only starts working at higher temperatures like 200C.

    I think you're right.
