brockmasters Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Hello. first time poster, long time lurker. I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on Gas Cooling vs. Liquid Cooling with the AETN? Made many failed attempts for gas cooling sleet wheat for it to not be cold enough or attempted liquid cooling for my base A/C for it to be too cold (freezing electrolyzers) Love you gals/guys and thx for the all the insights!

Saturnus Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Now that you can remove the ruin tiles (although still no luck with the annoying so-called "lore" decorations unfortunately) it's dead easy to temperature control an AETN. Just remove the floor tiles and replace them with horizontal door that open and close with a thermo sensor.

That doesn't really work since you 1) want to keep the AETN in hydrogen for max cooling, and 2) That just diverts the cooling from inside the AETN box to the air underneath it, which you either may not want cooled or may already be below the temperature you want to keep your base at. It sounds like the OP needs to figure out temperature sensors and valves.

Kabrute Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 sounds like you didn't flesh out the thought before trying to slam someone else. Saturnus is correct, using a door as a controller is effective and efficient, and honestly, you don't have to have open air under your door for it to still work so....... um......... really? hydrogen floats up, and you can insulate the bottom of the door so...... um......

You really haven't thought that reply through. Neither of the things you mention have any relevance if it will work or not. You obviously place abyssalite tiles beneath the doors. The doors are there to increase efficiency of the AETN (a great deal I should add since we know machines transfer heat to the tile below), and they just shut off the AETN when a temperature sensor activates them, just like a wheezewort on a door. Without you having to make a complicated set up for bypassing the hydrogen stream.

brockmasters Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 I love the idea of the doors, honestly. putting doors above and below would be awesome! tempted to stack with coolant pipes for a refinery. much appreciated!

psusi Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Ohh, you mean *right* under the AETN so it stops due to having no floor? So in EU the tiles around it are no longer made of neutronium so you can dig them up?

Soulwind Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Yes, the ruins tiles are now destructible. Not the furniture though, unfortunately. Personally, I just use a gas shutoff on the h2 input pipe. Using doors would save a few watts though.

Mex pointed this out to me the other night on stream - works beautifully - just make sure to replace the random piece of pipe too! 10/10 would use doors again - A*** seller.

They were obsidian but ruin tiles could not be deconstructed (except in debug). 17 minutes ago, Soulwind said: Personally, I just use a gas shutoff on the h2 input pipe.

As I said without having a complicated hydrogen bypass that wouldn't be a good way to shut it off for temperature control as the minimum amount of time it would continue to run on just the amount of hydrogen in it would mean it'd run for absolutely minimum 100 seconds after you shut off the hydrogen supply.

Darkpony Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I replace em with liquid flow tiles so you dont get the to cold effect if it turns clorine CO2 or even steam into a liquid.
