`ether gas` temprature rebalancing for pneumaticraft
Quezler opened this issue · 8 comments
Description
Ether Gas is the best liquid coolant for powah reactors by far (-96), however Liquid Starlight only is -9.
for the pneumaticraft mod however its considered to be at room temperature, whilst starlight is waaaay colder there.
i would suggest an entry to be added here, possibly as the coldest liquid? (or at the very least a bit colder than liquid starlight)
(not sure enough about the heat capacity & thermal resistance numbers myself to make it a pull, so its a suggestion)
Why would you like this added/changed?
seems a bit silly they switch the rank of coldest based on the mod. (and i would like to use this as pnc coolant :3)
Screenshots if applicable.
liquid cooling in PNC is kinda bad.
i know, that is why i abuse heat syncs since the other colder fluids are more annoying to get in bulk:
For fluids, pneumaticcraft pulls directly from the native fluid heat value, so whatever is set by the mod author.
still feels a bit weird that powah is configured it to be way colder than liquid starlight, feels like it should at least match 🤔
Block heat properties only handles blocks, to my knowledge. Not fluids.

It might be possible to change this, but I'm not sure the effort is with it : liquid cooling in PNC is kinda bad.
Just take a look at.... I think liquid hydrogen. It's as cold as it gets, but still considerably worse than simply cooling a block with a vortex tube.
Yeah. When I set up the Powah one, I wanted it to be a little silly. It was one of the few nobs I had to turn for rebalancing Powah reactors.
I know starlight has been 'traditionally' the coldest liquid in modded, but I don't see why it should have to remain that way.
I guess you can look at it as Ether gas bring very efficient at moving heat, but only in a confined space like a reactor or thermal generator. Like the stuff we used to use in refrigerators.

@Buuz135 what is your take on the confined temperature in powah vs in world coldness? (aka: how special is ether gas?)
@MuteTiefling you updated this very recently, right?
