Why doesn't my cooling system work


Recommended Posts

Cooling is a pain. So far every solution on the forums included huge installations with dozens upon dozens of automation pieces. So it seems either learn hot wo build colossal installation that span screens and include oil, every gas possible or something like that, use exploits like dripping temp reduction, try bruteforcing with what game offers, like aquatuner or wait until someone wil post a simple enough method to replicate.

i already tried that also tried in reverse by moving water through the hydrogen chamber but didn't work

but so far this one is pretty good at cooling water i haven't finished testing it yet

the idea was to quick cool it by dripping it on a cold metal tile then sip it to your water reservoir and do net let it accumulate too much water because it might break the hydrogen chamber's temperature, also limit the amount of water inflow to atleast 500g/s or lesser

PS: its better to leave ice inside the hydrogen chamber

you can do this by adding compactor for ice or you can build an ice sculpture then cancel it when it about to be constructed

update: turn the metal tiles into a stair to direct the water toward the pump and reduce inflow to 450 producing 11c water

@Lutzkhie I don’t know if you’re aware of this or not you are making use of another long standing thermal glitch here’s the basics of it think of it like having a small mass that is cool like a liquid vent in a tank overtime the tank fills then it reaches the mass the vent now all the water just rapidly became the temperature of the vent this effect can be reproduced with ladders vents pipes structures and even the very tiles of the tank holding the liquid in you’re case if that metal tile ever cools the water that lands on it will be easily cooled.Im not trying to tell you not use this I’m an exploiter myself I’m just pointing out why that system is able to cool decent amounts of water.

i didn't even know thats an exploit, anyway i changed my design last night

I might have managed to solve my issue of cooling down bodies of liquid with gas (by 15°). I am using 3 thermal regulators and alot of tempshift plates. I also placed 3 wheezeworts (which also cool 2 other thermal regulators (with lower flow rates)). My input temperature is ~44°C and my output temperature is ~27°C. The flow rate is still fairly low (just about 1,2kg/s), but it seems that it could be increased without losing cooling effect.

For some strange reason, i was not able to bring the temperature any lower than 27°C, i think additional temp shift plates might do the trick.

Uppon building this thing, at one point the temperature of my entire water pool magically dropped by around 10°C. I have no idea how it was possible. My best guesses are: 1) released hydrogen "dripped" the water, 2) cool building material was being used (very unlikely), 3) a critical mass of tempshiftplates was built.

 

As you can see, my bristle blossoms are still not very happy with my cooling concepts, so any further suggestions are more than welcome.
