More or less realistic in the tpt way. Pressure is analogous to neutron flux. CR control rods, P/SL prim./sec. loop, HE1/2 heat exchangers, WS water supply, TV turbine valve, CT cooling towers. Pull rods until desired boom or operate at about 450C.

    A water condensor would be fun but because the steam is what removes heat from all other systems it would need some sort of external cooling so it would basically just be an extra complicated tertiary loop.

    Really neat! I do have one suggestion though. Instead of the steam being vented, what if you used the cooling towers to condense it back into water and use Portals or something to send it back to the heat exchangers?

    Real manual for dummies: Just press all the buttons and lift the rods up.

    Manual for dummies as requested can in part be found in my previous comments. Beyond that the basics are that uranium (in tpt) generates heat based on pressure. More pressure = more heat, low pressure will stop any more from being generated. Because of how this reactor is built the pressure also increases with temperature so at higher temperatures more pressure is being generated and the control rods need to be further in to keep the reaction stable.

    Uh, manual for dummies?

    yeah and even tho the cooling provided by the boilers is not too much, it is cooling

    I really do appreciate the feedback, but at the same time, might I direct you to my bio?
