felix920506 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I hope a device that can heat things above 500 degrees Celtius can be added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Miner Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 As liquid tepidizers don't heat gases any more it seems that there is no sustainable way to heat stuff above 175°C or so. Using tepidizers to heat gases and indirectly other stuff to high temperatures was fun. It's a pity that this isn't working any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gold amalgam one should get a buff to heat water that extra 50C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelflame Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 There is evidence we are getting a new item in the next patch called the Burner, which specializes in extremely high heat output (300+C) This item also fits in with the theory that we soon will be seeing a Flammability update in the near future. Caustic Biome? No, that biome is the FIRE biome now boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkySentinel Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I would say just two words: nuclear reactor. It’s also able to provide a new disease and a new pollution factor. Tons of fun is guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabrute Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Even if you get such a device added in, a single line of code wrecks it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzzz Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 There are also no devices to work with high temperatures. All pumps, filters and so on only work up to 125°C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madcat1188 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I'm using tungsten metal tiles on top of magma to convert crude oil into natural gas. Only problem is, the natural gas that is generated is too hot, at least 200 C, so I need a cooling tower and a cooling room which uses a thermo regulator with hydrogen looping through it. I'll often see some liquid gold on top of the heating surface and wonder where the heck it came from, only to discover I no longer have a liquid vent that used to supply the crude oil into the system. As bzzz said above there a no pumps that work above 125 C, so it would be nice to be able to make pumps, vents, etc out of tungsten so they have a high melting point and overheat temperature.

Could be nice to have a new alloy made by existing metals, with high temperature characteristics. Perhaps a whole new set of pump designs based on multiple new alloys. Maybe an extreme low temperature version as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem is, the natural gas that is generated is too hot, at least 200 C You can make a heat exchanger where the hot natural gas passes "around" tungsten pipes with slowly flowing crude oil, pre-heating it before vaporization, and as a second stage heat exchanger with polluted water. But this all is not sustainable because it will use up the heat from magma very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kabrute Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 there is still a limit to the raw metals available for converting in the refinery, not to mention this doesn't side step the fact that pumps don't work at those temps.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
