Heating Cell
Grid Heating Cell
Type Cell
Stackable Yes (64)
Source Mod IndustrialCraft2

A cell that generates IndustrialCraft2 nuclear breeder reactors. When placed in a reactor chamber, the heating cell will transmit heat to surrounding components. In a breeder reactor, this behavior allows a high core temperature to be achieved, significantly increasing the rate of uranium enrichment. For example, an appropriately balanced reactor heated to 64000 degrees will re-enrich a depleted isotope cell in less than 9 minutes real time.

This component is stackable up to 64. Each cell in the stack will add 1000 heat to neighboring components capable of storing heat, resulting in a maximum temperature increase of 64000 per stack. Note that heating cells will not add heat to the reactor chamber itself (as is required for a functional breeder reactor) unless placed adjacent to a heat exchanger capable of  transferring heat to the rector core.
