PickPay Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 So started purifying water but after a few cycles they overheated and broke (even when built with Gold) They overheat faster than Hydrogen Generators !? I was expecting a sand filter not to heat much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckubis Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 what environment did you build it in if its a warm or better biom then your filter will have its own heat + the environments this includes the wires the vents and near by air pumps as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heckubis Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I think water temperature would also be an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PickPay Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 That could be but for 1 purifier the water is at 40C and for the other its at 20 C both heat up like mad... Whats the easiest way to cool down water ? I tried planting 6 Wheezeworts and have pipes (Wolframite) run around them but that didnt work...

Also if you could look why my Dupes are getting very lazy and take ages to do a job even when set at priority 9 and they have nothing else to do (Idle). Thanks.

heckubis Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 for cold water you need to have very cold gas and heat exchange materials like wolfram. your idea is close but just short on fighting the temperature battle as long as warm temp has a large difference from cold it will take a lot of time to change. you need the gases to exceed greatly the intended temperature of the recipient medium(in this case water) with water id aim about 50-75deg colder than what you need but the colder you go the more you have to watch it small differences in temp will take longer to change but are safer to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShamPeiN Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 pour some water on machines with a valve, purifier is easy, L shape up, valve+vent. dont know if is intended but shows on new overlay as well, liquid on floor is cold. space out machines, nothing near each other directly. machines and gas permeable under it from wolframite. all of above.
