Occam Blazer Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 ...oxygen has a quarter the specific heat capacity of polluted water? Could use that to cool down the magma biome or something. Probably makes for a good copper ore thermo-aquatuner oxygen chiller. Not that the swamp biome needs much cooling, but I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakomaru Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 You can definitely multiply the value of your heat capacity if your starting water is a low temperature. Heat it up (cool other stuff) then off-gas it, then cool it down again. Magma has far too much energy for that loop though. And if your starting water temperature is high, it means you want to off-gas/convert/consume it as-is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about the 70-ish degree C lower biome of the swamp planet. (-: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
