FBR - Closed loop system questions
This is what I have so far of a build using the FBR3x recipe. I have several questions on preferential routing with the dedicated steam lines.
My setup is probably unlike others when setting something like this up. 1 FBR set at 3x feeding reactors 2-4. I have the 3x on it's own mini sub-system supplying the 6 enrichment plants and one reprocessing plant unconnected from the other two. Reactors 2-4 are being fed left over core fuel from the enrichment process, spent core fuel is returned to the two other recyclers. I think I have the majority of the connections and lines figured out and contained. Maybe?? hell if I know really.
My main question is the Steam lines. My "plan" and it might be really bad, is to have ALL of the steam be directed to 2 pipe iv lines with the first "exit" using 188 Steam to hydrogen. The next is power generation and ENDS. The left over depleted steam is then used for water desalination. NOW in the event of a critical breakdown there is an emergency venting area. There is also the venting should the depleted steam not be necessary and corresponding water rerouted back in the system.
Should I care about the emergency venting OR incase of emergency route the high steam to the already existing cooling towers. Is it a case of too much redundancy? I am 80% certain if I unity built this it would run if I had enough of both. I also kind of don't like the placement of the emergency venting. So that might play into the routing of the High-Steam lines.
The build is not 100% done obviously, as I am still figuring out how to get some stuff over here.
