lemmethink Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I could never figure how the material temp works... Does Abyssalite emit heat if its hotter than the ambient temp? Does the heat starts equalizing with the ambient temp or does it just stays hot forever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risu Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Abyssalite exchanges heat extremely slowly. It'll take a long time to see it equalize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciderblock Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Technically abyssalite thermally equilibrates with its environment, just very, very slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Plum Gate Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Considering the nature of substances - I think that it does in fact transfer its thermal 'gradient'. But if you look at how transfer works - when thermal transfer occurs it does so according to the lowest conductivity of materials in question - so then red hot abyssalite tile will will have a barely perceptible influence. I'm not sure what rules are followed when there's more than two thermally conductive materials in a tile stack (gas pipe liquid pipe, wire, ladders and so on). That link above can help you sort out abnormalities in storage temperatures for the purposes of building with abyssalite in a non color vomit thermal environment.
