It does not require electricity or fuel to operate. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. I wasn't sure if Heat exchanger converts 1 water into 1 steam and there is nothing written in its tooltip. you should have a 2 by X rectangle with one reactor dangling off the end. Ratio of reactors to whatever is 2x2 480MW reactor to 10MW heat exchanger, ratio of reactors to miners is 1:4 iirc, so double that miners, You will need 1x2 chunks space near water, so anywhere, maybe next to Oil Field's Uranium patch. If you run an odd number of reactors, you should have a 2 by X rectangle with one reactor dangling off the end. The above ratio can be calculated from information available in-game: One boiler consumes 1.8MW of fuel and produces energy stored in steam at 100% efficiency. by mrvn Fri Nov 29, 2019 4:41 pm, Post This means the energy that was put into the steam to heat it to a higher temperature is wasted. 4 Heat Exchangers boil 412.36 Water to Steam per second (103.09 per Heat Exchanger ). When producing power, the steam engine will display a working animation: https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?title=Steam_engine&oldid=188232. This page was last edited on 16 February 2022, at 11:27. So I've run into an issue with water for my Turbines. What I can't find is how much water a heat exchanger *consumes* to produce the 103ish steam per second. All rights reserved. Steam engines will automatically adjust their power production and steam usage based on the current demands of the electricity network. My own personal Factorio super-power - running out of power. Pump Ratio ^ 1. The heat exchanger exchanges heat between a heat connection and water to produce steam. The lake under the oil field looks like a nice place, letting you place offshore pumps near the center, with the turbines extending to land. Get some landfill to straighten the edge youre gonna use. If your heat pipe is too long, your reactors will max out at 1000 C before your heat exchangers can reach a steady state of 500 C, and and you'll start to waste heat. SmartAlec105 having more than 2 steam engines per boiler could do that. 1 electric pump can keep up with rate of roughly 10 water pumps if i recall, so at least you don't need to have pump and waterpump flows in parallel. Does the game consider 1 water = 1 steam (just a different temperature?) This allows steam engines to be chained together. It takes 200J to heat 1 unit of water by 1C. The current optimal ratio is 1 offshore pump to 20 boilers to 40 steam engines. A perfect square of reactors has the highest theoretical efficiency, but at 3x3 and above you'll have reactors surrounded on all 4 sides and have no way to load the uranium fuel cells. and another post in that thread (which calculates the solar panel to megawatt ratio in a different way). Each steam turbine take a maximum input of 60 units of 500 C steam per second and outputs 5.82 megawatts of electricity; the 5.8 megawatts listed on the tooltip is rounded. by Honktown Mon Dec 02, 2019 1:56 pm, Post Thanks. The optimal ratio is 0.84 (21:25) accumulators per solar panel, and 23.8 solar panels per megawatt required by your factory (this ratio accounts for solar panels needed to charge the accumulators). The technical implementation details of Factorio's pipe system still have some room for improvement. However I want to do a different configuration and want to plan out how many of each type of component I need. A reactor produces 40MW, plus another 40MW for each active neighbouring reactor. This produces the 1:20:40 ratio. (100% neighbor bonus per adjacent reactor). Introduction Troubled by pipes having low flow rates? You may also use this to rectify brownouts/blackouts. 412.36 Water requires 1 ( 0.34) Offshore Pumps (1200 per Offshore Pump ). Do the numbers in the "beacons" column represent the number of modules or the number of beacons? Until then it is advisable to not use more than one pump per water network. Change fluidbox height and base level of boiler, steam engine and pump to improve fluid flow. One steam engine consumes 900kW of energy stored in steam, so each boiler can supply 2 steam engines: 1.8MW 0.9MW = 2. I concur the ratio is 1:1 cerified through testing. There are mods that can add landfill tiles to existing blueprints if you're up for modding and using a blueprint rather than making your own reactor, and this design is one of my favourites - not objectively "best" perhaps, but has a certain elegance that I deeply appreciate alongside a decent serving of entirely respectable practicality. That's actually just odd. Give exchanger max heat you can then let the exchanger turn 25k water into steam. Also, before you set it up, make sure you nuke any landfill land to get a little pollution absorption to help manage your Fun fumes cloud. 40 MW of power output is consumed by 4 Heat Exchangers (10MW per Heat Exchanger ). If you overbuild reactors, you can end up wasting a lot of fuel cells without realizing it. Since heat exchangers consume 103.1 water each, a few dozen seems reasonable if . Do your pipes have water? A heat exchanger produces 10 MJ a second, therefore it produces 10MJ / 0.097MJ = 103.0927835 steam per second. The ideal ratio is 4 Reactors, 48 Heat Exchangers, 83 Steam Turbines and 5 Water pumps. Stuck in a mission? Try this checklist before you completely revamp your power source. by Honktown Fri Jan 03, 2020 8:34 pm, Post Mark IIIs are unable to complete a full cycle without going into meltdown and thus need to be shutdown mid-cycle in order to deal with the high amount of excess heat. Hence, each water pump can support a maximum of 40 steam generators. By rejecting non-essential cookies, Reddit may still use certain cookies to ensure the proper functionality of our platform. An offshore pump produces 1200 units of water per second, which is enough for 116.4 MW. One steam engine consumes 30 steam per second, and one offshore pump produces 1200 water per second, so each offshore pump produces enough water to supply 40 steam engines: 1200 unit/s 30 units/s = 40. The true value comes from the following facts: It takes 1 kilojoule of thermal energy to raise 5 units of water/steam 1 C, You've heated water from 15 C to 500 C; 500 - 15 = 485, Consuming steam in turbines gives you the same amount of energy back as electricity, Steam is consumed by steam turbines at a rate of 60 units/second. It's recommended to build them near or on bodies of water, as that lets you place offshore pumps where ever you want. One exchanger 3 storage tanks plus inf heat. Remember that water in pipes still obeys Factorio physics; if you pipe your water a long distance, you may not get the full 1200/s. This link for calculations. All rights reserved. Since steam is produced from water in a 1:1 ratio, this also means that 103 units of water are consumed per second. One pump can supply up to 20 boilers. you can put 4 heat exchangers at the end of ~135 heat pipes, but you can put 16 heat exchangers only at the end of ~50 heat pipes. Additional comment actions. by Bauer Wed Jan 08, 2020 3:04 pm, Post Thus, they can buffer 500 MJ of heat energy across their working range of 500C to 1000C, and require 485 MJ of energy to warm up from 15C to 500C when initially placed. (Except that you can potentially turn 8 gigajoules of uranium fuel cell into 40 gigajoules of heat. At full 10 MW load this is 103.096 water per second. by astroshak Sat Jan 04, 2020 1:58 am, Post Finally, after 20 hours of work, I present the flowchart for Pyanodon Space Science! It takes 200J to heat 1 unit of water by 1C. If I know how much energy i'm outputting from my reactors -> figure out how many turbines -> figure out how many heat exchangers -> How many pumps do I need? Each uranium fuel cell will power a nuclear reactor for 200 seconds. Create an account to follow your favorite communities and start taking part in conversations. 20. So a 2x2 block produces 480MW (4*3*40). can you post a screenshot/blueprint? There are also times between day and night called dusk and dawn which complicate the calculations. Create an account to follow your favorite communities and start taking part in conversations. Or so. Factorio version: 1.1 Downloaded by: 1.88K users WHAT IS OFFSHORE P.U.M.P.S.? This can be extended as far as you want; every additional 2 reactors will provide an additional 320 megawatts of heat output.

Not sure where you got those numbers from, but in 0.15, small pumps and offshore pumps pump at exactly the same rate: 1200 fluid/s. turbines, exchangers and reactor ratios will vary due to neighbor bonuses. The heat exchanger exchanges heat between a heat connection and water to produce steam . So we know that one offshore pump can supply 20 boilers but is that the same for heat exchangers? Fresh water is at 15C while the steam produced by heat exchangers and consumed by steam turbines is at 500C, a difference of 485C, so you need 1 unit of water for each 97kJ, which is roughly 10.3 units per MJ. One steam engine consumes 900kW of energy stored in steam, so each boiler can supply 2 steam engines: 1.8MW 0.9MW = 2. by astroshak Wed Jan 08, 2020 11:15 am, Post Don't ask me how that works.). by Amarula Fri Nov 29, 2019 3:09 pm, Post Designed for supporting scaled up machines from "Schall Machine Scaling" mod. One offshore pump can supply 20 boilers and 40 steam engines. by gGeorg Sat Dec 07, 2019 1:00 am, Post If you want a ratio that's a little easier to remember, those are probably your best bet. In general, nuclear power is produced by the following production chain: Uranium ore is mined and processed to uranium-235 and uranium-238, then uranium fuel cells are created from the two. Heat exchangers produce 103 steam/second.This can be calculated by relying on steam turbine data: A steam turbine consumes 60 steam/second and produces 5.82MW (assuming 500C steam). Don't know how to use a machine? . You can also have some steam tanks with additional turbines for power spikes (laser turrets etc) as reactors always work with 100% power tanks will store steam when you're not using it all), Factorio Cheat Sheet - That's all the information you need. Sushi Belt question : r/factorio. If you inexplicably want to go back to a 4 year old build of Factorio then you will need to build 14 boilers in a row (they each used to heat the water up by a little bit), followed by 10 steam engines. Heat exchangers will not produce steam until they reach 500C. HolyGarbage . This is taken from Accumulator / Solar Panel Ratio (which calculates this in an impressive mathematical way!) 75 crafting speed, while the induction furnaces use 3 * 1, so the ratio could be fine tuned a bit. I've confirmed that the true value is indeed 5.82, and updated everything accordingly. As each heat exchanger produces 10 MW, the optimal ratio is 500 steam turbines for every 291 heat exchangers.

In vanilla factorio, without mods which change any of these values, the optimal ratio will be the same. But the water only gets heated up from 15C to 500C, so by 485C. The maximum length of heat pipe you can use depends on the combined distance of your heat exchangers from your reactors. by Honktown Mon Jan 06, 2020 6:52 pm, Post In a vanilla game that's. what, 1k science a minute?
