Liquid Heat Exchanger

ID: neoindustrial:liquid_heat_exchanger

Takes heat out of a fluid and gives it through the front (copper plate): hot coolant → coolant, lava → pahoehoe lava; 20 hU per mB. Each heat conductor lets 10 hU/t through (up to 10, at least 2 needed). It only cools if the machine in front accepts the heat and there is room for the cold fluid. 2000 mB tanks; takes ejector and pulling upgrades (fluid ones too).

Heat generators

They produce heat (hU) instead of EU and deliver it through their front (the copper plate) to the machine attached there. That machine must take heat on the side it touches:

They all burn only while something uses the heat: if the machine in front is full or off, they use nothing. The wrench turns them.

Which one to use

GeneratorWhat it usesHeat
Electric Heat Generator1 EU per hU10 hU/t per Coil in its 10 slots (up to 100 hU/t)
Solid Heat Generatorfurnace fuel (coal, wood...)20 hU/t; sometimes leaves Ashes. The fire shows at the back
Fluid Heat Generatorliquid fuelbiogas: 32 hU/t at 10 mB/s; coalfuel: 80 hU/t at 10 mB/s; other mods' fuels too
Radioisotope Heat Generatornothing (RTG pellets, never used up)2, 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64 hU/t depending on how many Pellets of RTG Fuels (each one doubles, one per slot)

Liquid heat exchanger

  • Each Heat Conductor inside lets 10 hU/t through (2 to 10 conductors).
  • It only cools when the machine in front accepts the heat and there is room for the cold fluid.
  • 2,000 mB tanks; takes ejector and pulling upgrades (fluid ones too). Ideal for using the fluid reactor's heat.
