Guys, this is how each Integrated Circuit level affects the efficiency of the LHE.
If you chip it too low it will simply generate regular steam instead of superheated steam. In that instance, the chip is ignored: it shouldn't have any impact on the amount of steam.If I'm reading this right, this means you *must* chip your LHE according to the floor (minimum) Hot Coolant (HC) you are generating, whether lava or IC2 fluid reactor.
So, if I chip at #13, for instance, I must always provide 2200mB/t of HC or else the LHE turns off / doesn't work / doesn't make SHS ?
And, does it only explode if I don't feed it enough distilled water (closed loop or not) ? In other words, it won't blow up if I feed it *too much* or *too little* HC, will it ?
...when it creates SHS, it produces it at 50% regular-steam-amount.
Just SHS while its above the threshold. Note that when the LHE is starting up or stopping, you'll sometimes create a bit of regular steam in the system, so its important to account for that in your logistics.It produces SHS *and* regular steam, or SHS on top of the regular steam ?
So, you could produce 1000 regular steam for 1000 eu/t (hypothetically), or produce 500 superheated steam for 500 * 2 + 500 = 1500 eu/t. (Reminder to all: The High Pressure Steam Turbine consumes SHS and outputs Regular Steam 1:1 into a second turbine, hence the double-dipping reference)
still works for meHi Jason. In 3.1.6, EnderIO machines could accept GT power but in 3.1.7, they no longer can as far as I can tell. Was this a change or am I missing something? Thanks very much.
Nominal conversion rate is 1:4Nevermind....Operator error. Forgot I had it hooked to an MV transformer and now with the increased power requirements for the transceiver, it no longer worked. Quick question though what is the conversion from GT/EU to RF? Thanks.
blue steel, just about the most annoying alloy in the universe to makeUpgraded to 5.0.8.27 yesterday and getting close to fluid reactor + heat exhanger + large turbine in my survival world. I have verified the reactor produces a good amount of hot coolant, and the heat exhanger cools and turns distilled water into steam. No explosions.
NEI didn't show the IC2 coolant, so I had to do it old style (pre-NEI) and Google how to make it. The IC2 fluid/solid canning machine with Lapis was the trick.
However, I wasn't quite counting on the turbine recipe being so...*different*. Not a bad different, just different. I've since been spending the last day mining magnesium (never needed the stuff until now) to make Magnalium. And, I'm Blast Furnacing Blue Steel. Geezz...that Blue Steel has a long recipe chain.
Well, I don't think anyone will be able to say the GT infrastructure to use the IC2 fluid reactor "quick" to build ;-)
Not complaining at all - I'm quite glad to use the magnesium for the first time in a GT world. Heck, I think I've used just about *every* raw material this world.
I hope you used the right coolant recipe because there are 2.
Water + 9 lapis dust = 1 bucket coolant
distilled water + 1 lapis dust = 1 bucket coolant
Next stupid question : Which rotor for 1 fluid reactor's worth of Steam ?
Reactor is putting out ~900HU/s, which means roughly 900L of steam/sec, which means small rotor ?
And, the blades don't make a difference in terms of performance/capacity, just durability, correct ?
