When it comes to starting the rodriguez, I put a puff of hydrogen in the chamber with the electrolyzers first, it doesn't take much, then run the electrolyzers till they stop, then wait till the hydrogen settles to the top. The hydrogen chamber is then full right off the bat, and there is no need to vent the oxygen in the hydrogen line. It is an extra step, and really I only do it because I can.
That is definitely a way to do it if you want to make sure that no Hydrogen escapes, but I would call it unnecessary in almost all cases. But generally, as long as it works, it works :)
I will replace all the spom wire with heavy voltage wire and connect to main grid as it will produce more power then it's need .double as a self contain generator .if need to delete more heat , build it out of gold amalgam and just connect a normal water or salt water geyser and use a ice box to control the oxygen temperature.
How is the Desalinator Emptied in the Salt Slush Geyser Setup? I am assuming just a adding a liquid lock next to the Desalinator or building it just outside the Hydrogen Environment.
You are right, both options are viable. It’s mentioned twice in the video, at 6:24 and again at the end of the Cool Salt Slush Geyser segment. My solution would be to put a liquid lock right beside it. I would leave it in the Hydrogen Environment for easy cooling.
On the first spom, since you're using a regular transformer on the right side, isn't the use of conductive wire pointless? Since you're already limited to 1Kw, why waste the refined metal on a 2Kw wire?
atleast a year ago, i did a different build with the magma volcano. sometimes the magma does make a tile in a mesh tile, very annoying. also how much petrol is on the ground? hot rock will flash it into sourgas?
I haven’t encountered the issue with the mesh tile, it’s because of the relatively small amount of magma that the door lets in. 0.8 seconds is the very maximum. 0.5 seconds is the minimum. There is one 200kg bottle over the floor. About 16kg on the left side of the room, a little less towards the right. I also didn’t have any sour gas issues, probably due to the high amount of steam pressure(at least 100kg of steam per tile). I have found it’s pretty stable, ran it for about 50 cycles before recording. That is in long game not very much, but it’s a baseline
I know that petroleum used to be needed in steam rooms, but I'm not seeing it any more until now.. Is it really needed, or can you just dump a heap of water in?
In all honesty, I’m not sure. I figured it would help heat distribution beyond the Tempshift plates. I’m pretty sure it would work without, potentially with a bit less efficiency.
Question: you can make the output ignius rock more cooler than 30c? Or is the max low temperature you can archive?. Thanks again for your videos, I hope i can find a volcano in my base
I have honestly not tried to go lower, but it should be possible. If not like this, most definitely with a second thermo aquatuner which just cools down the cold box. With Polluted Water temperatures of around -15C should be possible. Again, that's a educated guess without actually trying it. In the description I provided the savefile if you want to tinker around with it yourself :)
Hey, how much water per tile did you put inside the steam room? or you imported steam from somewhere else? if you boiled the water here, need to know how much should I put. I always struggle with this. Appreciate the help!
It is extremely little. A few grams per Tile. Too much will cause the system to stall, but it needs to be enough to cover the entire floor for heat transfer at startup. Less then 500g per tile would be my recommendation
@@BierTier So, to do this out of sandbox mode, you would vacuum the steam room first, dump petrol as you shown in your video, and lastly, dump around 450g of water per tile on top of that?
You bring in the water first, then you build a liquid lock on one side, then close it off and vacuum it out. The below 500g per tile is only for the middle. In this video I build one from scratch in a real game, maybe that helps you out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RDSj8YHylNg.html
I did put too much water in there in that video, but fixed it later before startup. I think I put 10kg or so in there originally, but mopping got the job done.
I can never get the infinite gas storage right. the liquid always disappears. No matter what kind I've use. I tried at 15kg but again it will disappears or I put too much and it's overpressured.
It is a bit tricky to get it. I don't know if you are aware of my ONI Let's Play series, but I build several throughout it. Here for example I show in relatively great detail how to do it, maybe it helps you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6sGvL0H14kE.html
I tried to build the cool slush geysr setup on my vanilla map. Everything worked perfectly fine, until the water in the electrolyzers and the pipes that are running towards the elctrolyzers started freezing... Now there are blocks of ice in my closed up chamber and im kinda sad. Took me a long time to set everything up. Any thoughts on what i did wrong?
What material did you use for the water pipes? They should be insulated pipes made out of igneous rock or better. Otherwise the water inside the pipe cools down too much and freezes, breaking the pipe.
Im pretty mid-end game. I used ceramic - thought when it works for tiles, it should work for pipes aswell. But I thing it freezes inside the elctrolyzers? The blocks of ice appear on top of them.
@@leal.3044 I see. This shouldn't happen with ceramic insulated tiles. Are your electolyzers controlled via automation? Water stored inside the electrolyzer with a red signal could freeze and break
@@jokecukie They are, i figured it out. It seems like the setup had to warm up a bit. Im dumping heat from another Vent into the reservoir now and it works perfectly fine. Thanks for the help!
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it does work with a minor volcano, in fact, the volcano in the video is minor. Just build up a decent supply before you turn it on and it should run forever without any issues. If you run low on magma just turn it off temporarily to refill it. No problems with that :)
Your cool slush geyser and cool salt slush geysers probably wouldn't work on Rime or The Frozen Forest, since the input water would freeze in the pipes. At least not until those chambers are hot.
You are absolutely right. This can be negated with pumping whatever else hot one may have through the reservoir first and introducing heat, that’s why I built the basins so big, so there is space to cool something else off. It’s always good to use one thing for more than one purpose if possible :)
I would recommend the dropper mod. It allows you to pluck 100g of liquid on the map and drop it into a cell. Pause move a dropper of water into each cell you wish the gas to be gone. When you remove the liquid from the cell it leaves a vacuum. When finished just unpause.
