    Solid super fuel? :D Something recently added? :) What are the best way to keep a bronze boiler happy fuel wise? im guessing an automated farm would be very hard at this point so is coal/lignite, charcoal or alumentum gathered manually the best option? Also a small question regarding oil, since...

    1. Last time i checked there arent that many options when it comes to generators, its steam, gas or diesel that are the options as far as i am concerned 2. When it comes to fuel you have quite a lot of choice. For gas turbines you can do steam to methane or food to methane if you can make a...

    Long time no see :) Been having a fairly long break for a while but i think it might be time to get back into minecraft again :) I saw some really interesting changes on the ic2 forum that GT was getting transfered into version 1.10. Will there be a transfer of infitech to that version at some...

    I know about them but i have actually never gotten around using them, what are the configuration options with them? Anything that could make GT pipes easier to use would be much appriciated :)

    @onsp Ive added a description for each machine as well as a setup overview for the oilsand-nitro diesel production in the low tech power systems tab. The desulfurisation unit is simplified compared to the full scale setup however the nitro diesel line will work with any setup producing light...

    The amount of product you get from heavy oil is much larger than light oil per bucket (if you check recepy in distillery you use way less oil per cycle with heavy oil than light oil) From calculation sheet http://prntscr.com/bhhack So if you want to make nitro diesel i would stick with oil or...

    I've left them out for simplicity, but as a rule of thumb every time you get a cell of anything you usually need a fluid canning machine to automate it. For automating the simple oilsand setup you should be fine using only enderio conduits and maybe a few filters. For the complete setup you need...

    Afaik its already been changed so MV would be 75% efficiency. If we consider transmission losses the total need would be (128+4)/0.75*2= 352 mb/t steam to run a MV turbine. Considering that you should be able to run at least 2 MV turbines off 1 bronze boiler

    My impression from the above is that not only do you find the largest minecraft tech geeks here but also the largest magic geeks, how you find the patiance to get that far into thaumcraft is beyond me :) For the big Thaumcraft gurus in here: What do you consider the largest milestones in...

    Have been playing around more with my tree setup to make it produce even more stuff than heavy oil and biogas. This time around i made it so i can swith between running wood to make oil but also charcoal. Moreover i boosted the process heavily by making the advanced nitrogen setup with liquid...

    @Sprigum I think oil is among the best way to go but you actually have a lot of options to get oil. One way is to find a large BC deposite and go to town on it with a pneumaticraft gas lift. Another excellent option is to find a vein of oil sand. They are quite common and will give you insane...

    From what ive seen it consumes an entire bucket of fluid at a time which then lasts for X seconds. So potentially you could fairly well estimate how much steam it produces by giving it say 10 buckets of said fuel and see how long it lasts similarly to what you have done. The larger the amount...

    @BrickVoid If you are feeling that you dont have time to deal with the mining side of things just cheat in a really good pickaxe and an industrialcraft scanner (OC scanner i think). Mining is really just a timesink in this modpack so if you feel that you are restricted in time just go around...

    Naphta is produced in a few steps and the easiest low tech way is to take any oil (they all produce naphta but in varying amounts) and distill it. With the right chip this will produce sulfuric naphtah which then has to be cleaned of sulfur in a chemical reactor. The desulfurisation process...

    Are you sure? The tooltip states stuff that can be run in a diesel generator and not all liquid fuels can be run there. Or is all liquid fuels at 20% efficiency? Also then what is the difference in efficiency between the different GT boilers. For instance would creosote be 2000*2=4000 steam in a...

    Ive started working on a new sheet in the google docs document now and i was wondering if anyone could share some light on some specific calculations. Does anyone know heat up times for Large heat exchanger? Also many liquid fuels does not have a burn value in NEI, how do you translate a eu...

    The reason is that the nominal outputs considers steam and not gas which is actially 2x higher. As an example: you should always start out from the nominal input and for a large rose gold turbine that is 42000 l/s. For large gas turbines (and also high pressure steam) the nominal output will be...

    What i was implying with my comment was just that it was rounding in the in game calculation as i could see you hadnt been rounding as i got the same numbers as you . But it is actually very interesting that you will have some variation in output based on the energy content of the fuel...

    Here's a short list if things you could try: Pick up and place down Check if you have really have the right fuel (a lot of duplicate names with so many mods) So basically check NEI if you might have the wrong fuel right click it with a soft hammer (it might be turned off) Check that it can...
