Function: This proposed modification to our on-site nuclear reactor will utilize the heat generated by RPC-085 in order to achieve an infinite source of electrical power with an estimated output of 4,000 megawatts (MW)1. This will not only save us thousands of dollars in fuel rods, but the excess electrical power can also be sold to mundane markets for further funding.

RPC-085 Core Design: The RPC-085 Core will replace the reactor core of the nuclear power system. The housing to the RPC-085 Core would be composed of tantalum hafnium carbide2 with a thickness of 50cm. The casing would have nine (9) couplings (2 on each vertical side, 1 on the top side) for the emergency cooling hoses to be attached. Ten (10) temperature monitors will be affixed to the base of the core.

Pressure Tank: Rather than water (H2O), the pressure tank housing the RPC-085 Core will use liquid helium. The condenser3 must be fitted with special pressurizers so that pressure in the condenser is greater than the pressure tank4. Said pressurizers are to have a direct connection to the generator in order to be self-sustaining in the unlikely event of a blackout.

Emergency Cooling System: Each of the RPC-085 Core's temperature monitors will hook up to 8 individual pumping systems. Each pumping system will have a full 500-liter tank of liquid helium. When any of the temperature monitors detects temperatures greater than 2500 k, the top coupling valve will close, each pumping system will empty their tanks through a hose at a rate of no less than 75 liters per minute. Each hose is affixed to one of the side couplings of the RPC-085 Core. The top coupling will feed into a pressurizer set up to refill each of the tanks.
