Easy to use: Steam Vent


Recommended Posts

You can finesse a split steam turbine to cool the output water to a usable temperature and almost completely negate the power drain from the AT.  A much simpler solution though, is to just place the AT inside the vent room and cool the turbine output with the AT, this way, you are making use of the 110c steam rather than cooling it down from 110c into usable water.   I've used both of these designs in the past.  I tend not to bother with a split steam turbine on a cool steam vent though, as you get very little extra reward for much more effort.

I tried both options. In this version, the turbines work a little longer, during the inactivity of the vent. In general, the circuit works more "even". In particular, the right turbine always works almost at full power, helping the main circuit in the active period. But in general I agree, both options work.
