(dumb question)Why? would you be running multiple turbines with this? Aren't the turbines rate limited to 2k steam/t?(/dumbquestion)

Tech, usually. The better answer is 'whatever just works without having to have a degree in read-the-mod-developer's-mind-to-figure-out-what-the-heck-this-is-supposed-to-do'. I just don't have the time or mental energy to provide sufficient give-a-crap to mods with an obtuse barrier to entry.

I added another enderium block, as another poster suggested above and cranked it up to the actual input value of 760 steam/t. That seemed to balance out better

lol. oh, goodness no. I like to play with steam boilers for some dumb reason. It's a very small turbine (7x7x8, iirc) and a 36hp boiler. (edit) Bevo pack reduces power output to 70% of default and fuel usage to 130%, or did as of his version 10.4. That appears to be inline with the...

OK. Thanks!

For the original question it didn't matter since my ignorance was quenched with general information :) The number of rotors doesn't matter here? Also, does it matter if a rotor is unbalanced (there's no configuration of rotors that will yield a balanced 29-rotor turbine, as far as I can see).

Oh! well ain't that just peachy. More reason to stick to wind turbines :) Do you know if there is a location where the changes are summarized? I can't be sure if the differences I am seeing are due to a lack of understanding or just plain Doin' It Wrong.

As far as I am aware, yes. I haven't changed the configs and the results of running a small passive reactor were similar. It's a Bevo tech pack world.

Numbers don't seem to be quite correct. 13 enderium blocks, 720 steam/t (actually 760 incoming, but limited to 720 in the GUI), 29 rotors. 1830 RPM and climbing and only 5.2k rf. Quite the pain in the rumpus to fine tune one of these!

Very cool. I seem to have been on the right track, but was missing some information about the coils. Thanks for filling me in. Getting 8k rf out of a steam boiler sounds like a good efficiency upgrade over the baseline :)

To get more than 8 coils, you make the coil blocks taller (rather than wider)?

Has anyone done the math/testing to optimally affix a boiler/turbine combination and design? I was trying to play with it last night and it seemed that one boiler would optimally turn only a small turbine, but I'm fairly sure that's because I haven't completely understood the turbine math. 25...

4 witches with nametags stuck in the middle of a well of suffering. Prior to the well of suffering, MFRspawning witches 50 or 60 at a time and stabbing them in the toes.

What? That's ... Ok. Speechless. That is so much worse than I expected. (edit: found external corroboration...still shocked. understand the logic. having a hard time believing it's worth the effort required to actually craft)

Steves Factory Manager could be used for item and fluid transfer. You still need something for power. I'm going to look into the rednet energy cables. I hadn't seen them before.

Are these 1.7.10 additions? I've not noted MFR to have a chunkloader in the past (and I thought I was pretty familiar with it). Might have to look at Endertech, too, just to see what else it might offer. thanks

Hmm. I suspect my wishlist of randomness would have fewer blocks. A powered chunkloader (power increasing dramatically based on number of chunks loaded and the number of other loaders in a set radius) Lots more scifi blocks, not unlike some of the various things here...

Interesting..so molten emeralds and soylent green...I mean, meat ingots, to make a few million rf ;)

Hmm.. So you need some kind of 'valuable block generator' that runs off emeralds that you get by dropping villagers into a smeltery. Gotcha. ;)
