How to use it
The blast furnace uses no EU: it runs on heat that reaches it through its back side (the orange square).
- Attach a heat generator to its back, facing it: an
Electric Heat Generator (with coils and EU), a 
Solid Heat Generator (burns fuel), a 
Fluid Heat Generator (biogas) or an 
Radioisotope Heat Generator. The wrench turns either one. - Load compressed air: air cells in the top-left slot (they come back empty below), by right-clicking or through pipes. Air cells come from the
Compressor with an empty 
Universal Fluid Cell. - Put in the iron and, in the bottom slots, the coal dust and the crushed calcite.
- It first heats up to 50,000 hU (it accepts up to 20 hU per tick: about 2 minutes), then makes one ingot every 5 minutes, using 1 hU per tick.
What each ingot uses
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Iron (ingot, raw, ore, crushed, purified or dust) | 1 |
 Coal Dust | 4 |
 Crushed Calcite | 2 |
| Compressed air | 1,000 mB (1 cell) |
It gives one 
Steel Ingot and one 
Slag.
Details
- It only accepts heat with iron inside; without heat it cools down by 1 hU per tick.
- Without the coal and calcite for one ingot it does not start, even when hot.
- The air tank holds 8,000 mB (8 ingots).
