Gouflax Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Hello, Even if the radiation mechanisms are going to be changes in the future, I think having a topic about the protection against radiations stay a good idea. I share here my tests.RANGE : With the shine bugs and the wheezewort, the range of radiation are 5 squares in line and 4 squares in diagonal.Having more radiation sources in the same square increases the power of the radiations, but not their range.BUILDING OR WILD : The tiles are way more efficient to protect against the radiations. The dentity of material give a better protection, but the temperature have not effect on it.PROTECTION EFFICIENCY : Every element offer a different absorption capacity. Every square absorb a percentage of radiation from the source, and every next square offer a similar percentage of absorption (but not perfectly linear). Therefore, the density doesn't seem to offer a linear protection. See bellow my test with tiles of 200 kg (obsidienne and graphite), and 400kg.

Pyrex042 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 That's interesting. I would have expected that doubling the density from Tile->InsulatedTile would have made a difference. Have you tried the same with Metal Tiles? I'm especially curious how good Lead and Depleted Uranium are at shielding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will continue my tests and probably make a list of better and worst protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Plum Gate Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I look forward to it. I'm interested in the metal tiles as well. I'm also surprised about the insulated tiles ( disappointed a bit even ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babba Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 @Gouflax If you are in the mood...water tile stacking, pwater, ice, pice, oil, lava and such would also be great to see tested Have tempshift plates got any rad influence ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gouflax Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 @babba I will probably do some tests like that. If lava is efficiency, it could be an opportunity for some funny setups I tried tempshift plates and drywall. They offer no protection. Pneumatic doors, mesh tiles and airflow tils are also useless.

The Plum Gate Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I tested molten lead but that was before the falloff tweak. 3000kg/t blocked it completely. But the parameters were different then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gouflax Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 Here is some new datas. I tested almost all liquids (except some elements like molten tungsten). I builted a 1 square room with airflow tiles. The results : The top 3 are liquid hydrogen, liquid carbon dioxine and molten lead. Therefore, the water and/or the crude oil seem to be the more econome and accessibles options. I also tested other configurations, with different squares of water and density. The results : With the liquids, the density doesn't seem to affect the aborption of the radiation. To have a better protection, you must increase the thickness of your "liquid wall".

Pyrex042 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 If liquid density really doesn't matter, 3x 1kg layers of three different liquids (Water on top of PWater on top of Brine) could be the cheapest shielding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gouflax Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 Here is my tests with. As before, i build a tile in space and observe the absorption capacity. The results :The more efficients tiles are the one build in graphite, plastic, lead and depleted uranium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the only problem with that is low melting points.. Graphite - 276,9C , Plastic - 159,9C , Lead - 327,2C , Depleted uranium - 132,9C More durable materials = less radiation absorption ...

The Plum Gate Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Could try tile, gaseous element, tile. Easy enough to make using hydrogen since it's aways rising anyway. Think like sideways chimney to start. I used three insulated igneous under my solar cells and brought radiation down, although now that I think about it. Might be able to make a better corridor below it with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyrex042 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I'm surprised how little variance there is in effectiveness. Lead, DU and Graphite are really only a little bit more effective than Igneous Rock tile while being much more resource-intensive. A three tile thickness of Igneous Rock tile is more effective (and much cheaper) than two tiles of Graphite or Lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Plum Gate Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I hope they tweak this blocking level. A meter thick tile of any metal should block most cosmic radiation to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrex042 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 The lack of diversity is also a problem on the bottom end. If you want a "window" to let in Cosmic Radiation, your best option is a single row of Mafic Rock for 48% or refine Gold for 72%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RageLeague Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 It is surprising how lead can only block like 70% radiation, considering how thick a lead tile is. It should block at least 95%, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its radiation from special reactor RBMK-1000, extra strong, dear comrade Perhaps we could create special Pacu Vaseline Paste, which gives a paste treated tile additional 22% on to the 70%. нужен атом машины "electra centrale" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
