Lutzkhie Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 this is just for graphical solution we all know abyssalite are resilient to temperatures, but sometimes seeing Red colored tile of abyssalite is not pleasing to the eyes so this is probably just a quick solution to turn those red ore to green or blue abyssalite ores so first you have to make a special compactor specifically for abyssalite (or if you wanna cool other ores you can add them too), then set them to "Sweep only" and a higher priority or have only one compactor for abyssalite. once you have a compactor for that, you have to sweep 2 specific piles of abyssalite with different temperatures Those two ores of different temp will reach a thermal equilibrium for example 10c and 30c will become 20c, adding another 10c will become 15c But... of course the mass will also affect the output temperature so i would advise to sweep ores that has low temp, high mass and high temp, low mass Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/88883-how-to-cool-down-abyssalite-ores/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpio King Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Abys ore change temperature? It does not have same properties as build abys tile?

Lutzkhie Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 yeah they changed temp, cooled abys are very effective when used on metal refineries Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/88883-how-to-cool-down-abyssalite-ores/#findComment-1017979 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wachunga Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 It's simply combining multiple piles with different temps into one pile with the average temp. If one was super anal about this they could collect all the abyssalite into storage compactors and then selectively empty and refill until all the abyssalite is at the same temp. Also abyssalite does exchange heat, it just does so extremely slowly. So slowly that sometimes the game doesn't bother.

Kasuha Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 There is (used to be, but I believe it still works) a method to actively change temperature of abyssalite, not just by mixing abyssalite piles. Build some abyssalite tiles (standard, not insulated) and build a heat conducing pipe (e.g. igneous rock) through them. The tile will exchange heat with the pipe and its contents, though it takes a while. Once I got an abyssalite tile at -190 C because I accidentally built a granite segment of the radiator pipe through abyssalite tile in my oxygen freezer.

Lutzkhie Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 wow thats some very cold abyssalite, perfect for metal refineries and other heat producing buildings does it still work?

travaldofan Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 u have to build storage box and store them, i found it is the fastest way to change temperature for abyssalite, but cold one myabe store in cold petroleum?

Soulwind Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Is there any real reason to need to cool it down, other than just because? It won't transfer the heat will it?

Soulwind Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Ok, so it's a just because. Nothing at all wrong with just because. I just wanted to be sure I wasn't unknowingly sabotaging my colonies.
