Neotuck Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 People have been telling me granite is the best for making radiators so I decided to test it. In the picture starting from the right is: Granite, Sedimentary rock, Igneous rock, Obsidian In the end Sedimentary rock was the best choice with Obsidian being a close second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travaldofan Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Interesting, Sedimentary and obsidian has the same heat capacity and conductivity, why granite is bad? very puzzling thermal conductivity and heat capacity is low so it has to be best hmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutzkhie Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 we have a winner: *drum roll* sedimentary rock damn there are only a few of them and some are near slime biome so obsidian is 2nd i guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neotuck Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 Granite has a larger heat capacity than Sedimentary or Obsidian. That probably the reason it slows down 3 minutes ago, Lutzkhie said: so obsidian is 2nd i guess? yes but it's so close it's almost the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutzkhie Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 wait, sedi and obsi have the same specific heat and conductivity, 2 and 0.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travaldofan Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 ALL HAIL SEDIMENTARY ROCK! BUT I CHOOSE U WOLFRAMITE AND TUNGSTEN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lutzkhie Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 quick question, do oxygen cause "popped eardrums" when too much pressure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lutzkhie Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 ive been producing too much oxygen with my "mushroom oxydizer" (it literally look like a huge mushroom) at almost an average 1.8kg of oxygen per tile near the vent, but it seems no one has popped eardrums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(ie. going from room A to room B, if the absolute value of the pressure change B-A is above a certain number *POP) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but I'm not certain they're modeling it that way or not. As a physicist, there are a lot of things this game does that are exact real physics (for values of real), a number of things that it kinda/sorta gets approximately right... and others, like thermodynamics/conservation of energy that go completely out the window. Not that I have a problem with that, per se... it just makes it hard to expect what's correctly modeled and what isn't without actual testing... like the pipes bit above. That's clearly not compliant with thermodynamics, bug or not. A good chunk of the exceptions to realism are understandably made... some of the code necessary to keep "realism" would be heinously expensive processor-time-wise on a map this big, even if you reduced it all to linear equations... primarily because reality isn't segmented into tiles, which makes accurately doing fluid mechanics and the like a bit more of a pain in the ass than the real thing... and the real thing is a pretty huge pain in the ass.

Granted, my experience has been primarily water chilling via cold hydrogen with variable levels of water present, thus the plates being useful.
