Since efficiency does nothing on the entity, it would consume 1.72MW of power to produce steam at 57/s 165º. Unless you mean energy output 1.8 * efficiency, so, if you input 90% or 0.9 efficiency the final value would be 1.72MW which is the same as inputting 1.72. Yes, default value is 1.8MW, same as vanilla burner boiler.Įfficiency does nothing to boilers as far as my testing went: efficiency and effectiveness both doesn't change anything on the produced steam ammount which is the resource that is generated from the consumption of energy.My mod doesn't change vanilla burner boiler behaviour. I'll probably just stick to 1.8 MW, 100% efficiency and 165☌ steam anyways though. Just writing about it since it's fun to theorycraft different energy storage mechanisms and having those settings means I could actually try them out if I felt like it. That would mean you can make storage tanks more or less energy dense compared to accumulators and also do tradeoffs with lower efficiency and but higher temps, or just reduce temperature or whatever. It's not really necessary but an output temperature and efficiency value might be fun to play around with. If you input a very low value, say 0.1, it will consume and produce steam at 0.1MW ratio, hardly 1/s if you input, say, 30, it will consume and produce steam at 30MW ratio so 3000/s regular pipe won't transport that much but you do you. Normal boilers produce and consume 1.8MW, the setting will only change this value, so the electric will consume and produce the ammount specified in MW. Vanilla boilers are 1:1 ratio, they produce exactly the ammount of energy they consume so there's no loss or gain in the process, therefore the settings for my electric variation will be the raw ammount of output they can have. has an electric builer, but it adds some other stuff I don't care for also. I'll find an "Electric Boiler" mod or fix it myself (or don't bother), though it's going to be named something else since this thing has taken the proper name :s You can have your electric network total conversion mod if that is what you want to make. Instead it's a mod that depends on Bob's mods for balance, doesn't have an efficiency setting, introduces tech research to alter the efficiency (and any ratios I've planned for and spams the tech tree) and alters vanilla components on top of that! This is just getting less simple with every post in the thread you make.īut if it's not for me I can just not use it. A mod named "Electric Boiler" sounded like it would do just that. It should be like the burner boiler, but electric. I was looking for a trivially simple mod that added an electric boiler, no more, no less. Boilers are now fast-replaceable with pipes.Personally, I don't want any overcomplications.Boilers show their fuel inventory in the entity info.Flickering light added to furnaces and boilers.Enabled the inserter to take fuel out of boilers.Significantly increased energy consumption/production.At this time, steam is actually water that is renamed when over 100 degrees.'Steam' is produced on a separate connector rather than heating water passed through.This distinction is meaningful for circuit network accounting of steam and the coal liquefaction recipe.Steam became a separate resource, boilers now produce steam rather than high temperature water that is displayed as steam.This allows to chain multiple boilers with inserters, each inserter taking fuel from one boiler and placing it into the next. Inserters can insert and remove fuel from boilers. It costs 30kJ energy to heat 1 unit of water to steam at 165☌, so one boiler will produce 60 steam per second. ![]() A single unit of coal (4MJ) fed into a boiler and then utilised in a steam engine will result in 4MJ of energy added to an electrical system. Boilers have 2 water connectors, allowing them to pass water through to other adjacent equipment, but only 1 steam connector for output.ġ unit of steam is produced for each unit of water. When fueled it converts feed water into steam at 165☌, matching the maximum temperature of the steam engine. The boiler is used to convert water into steam.
