there is a mod that makes iridium blocks, but they are made with iridium plates!

change modes on the drill.

tried shoving it in a sprayer? dunno if that would work.

detection is simple but require LOTS of checks, this will cause major lags.

not if it only checks once per turbine update. or we just make the whole dam an MB structure so that it is one big structure that doesn't do much in the way of checking.

and its sulfur not CO2 that causes the most damage anyway.
sulfur comes from both industrial and natural sources.

Zan's is better anyway....but it seems to be dead too.....aw nuts....

which can be triggered by volcanic eruptions, sometimes being far worse than what is caused by human pollution.

btw, the idea that rain is pure water is totally false, ever hear of acid rain?

It already auto-outputs steam. What more do you want of it?

someone said they were having to extract the steam via BC wooden pipes....from that I made the mistake in thinking it didn't auto output.
this is def one of those machines that should be a MB structure. different sizes would produce different amounts at different efficiencies. almost should be like RC boilers but use electric heaters instead of fireboxes.....though maybe not....maybe just electric tank blocks as you can submerge the electric heating elements in the water.

the steam generator should be like the RC boilers, auto output steam to legit containers/pipes.

another thing about the molten salt reactors is they don't have to use uranium, they can use thorium. thorium requires no processing, decays via beta radiation which is stopped by clothes, and is the third most abundant radioactive element on the planet....one downside, weekly on site reprocessing of the fuel, which can yield uranium. Plus thorium reactors take 1/100th the foot print of a uranium reactor.

water is used due to its massive thermal capacity. it is actually the highest for the most common liquids. sure it has issues, but far cheaper than some exotic liquid that may or may not be any safer under the same circumstances. (4.1813 J/(g K) for water, anti-freeze is actually less than that of water 54% for ethylene glycol, which can burn, propylene glycol varies 50% @ 0C to 70% @ 100C at SAP)

i edited my post but you replied before I was done.

if you are using wooden pipes to pull liquids you are limiting yourself
emerald pipes are capable of pulling 40 mB/t.
I do admit that BC's pipes are limiting, and that is a constant source of discussion on the BC forums. but you can do better with BC pipes.
and personally, I feel that RC's boilers will beat IC2's steam generator for making regular steam.
especially since it is MB and auto outputs the steam into any acceptable container.
at the very least your steam, generator should do the same, which makes a lot of sense, especially if you pressurize the steam and reduce the expansion, which if you are going for powering a steam turbine makes a ton of sense.
steam turbines run at about 3000 RPM and the main line pressure varies depending on the size, but can exceed the kPSI range. some even have a low pressure section that operates below atmospheric pressure, leading directly into a condenser. Many in the electrical generation reheat the steam to increase efficiency. Nuke reactors actually run cooler than other fired plants so the turbines are run at a lower RPM.

to create distilled water from steam. which won't calcify your steam generators, or at least that is my understanding.

since the steam is a fluid, pick up a liquid duplicator and use that to pump in steam for testing purposes.
or you can get RC and have a much easier method of generating steam.
IC2's steam generator is DOA for me due to RC.
though can't the nuke reactor put out steam or did that disable that?

Quote from Thunderdark

water to steam volume ratio is 1:1000 .... RL according to wiki is 1:1624 So please no complaints

ratio depends on pressure actually.
prob should be configurable

I think it relates to the cable in the foam, try it without a cable and see.
and try using a repeater right next to the foam.

Quote from Denny

Well, it does... (build 515). Need to connect steam generator to it and it will condense ic2steam to distilled water... overally bit slow conversion, took me about hour with 400hU/t to boil 10 cells of water(mostly slow heating of water... coolant heats up rapidly in comparision) and not 1 to 1 ration (do we have leaky ic2steam somewhere?)

nope, water to steam volume ratio is not 1:1. think its like 1:160 or so. It takes a lot of steam to condense to water.

Universal Electricity
and MC is running in 6, 1.6.0_65 JDK.
you've tried running it pure, no other mods, no old Config files, with just IC2 and forestry?

Quote from daredevl

i dont see anything in it but anything that might help ill try

EDIT:also i grabbed that mod and it hangs randomly but not on forestry. once i take forestry out it runs fine. or if i have just forestry it runs fine.

um, you sure all your mods are correct, one is asking for a version of forge that isn't possible for 1.6.4 (enchanting Plus)
also, why are you running the game in a JDK environ? and UE highly recommends Java 7 not 6

post the FML-client-0.log file please
I have IC2 and forestry and they run fine together.

also pick up this mod http://www.minecraftforum.net/…aftloader-v0-1-1-improved
that will help you to know if you are just impatient on waiting for the game to load.
