Redpower MJ engine info?

[Juanitierno]

Hello!

Where could i find some info on the new RP MJ engine?

Ive heard they regulate their output to the MJ requested by the network, and that they do consume a ton of bluetricity to produce, but i would like additional info.

How many MJ are produced connecting an engine to a single solar panel?

Will it output MJ differently if the bluetricity circuit is fully charged or discharged?

Whats the max output of the engine?

Is the power-MJ progression linear?

Thank you!

The only one I know is the max output is 30 MJ/t.

I understand that the power-MJ chart is exponentially efficient, as the engine has a fairly small amount of spin-up time.

If i had to guess, i'd say that it probably gets throttled if the system's endpoints are no longer receiving power, though thats speculation based on the operation of windmills.

Not much from a single solar panel. (look at what a panel does compared to a windmill, and how fast [slow] the engine run on said windmill.)

MJ output would be higher if that demand can be met, as more blulectric power can be fed into the engine instead of charging the circuit.

32MJ/t

As far as I'm aware its appropriately linear.
