The boiler

The boiler is an essential machine, required for oil refining. It requires an external heat source like the firebox. It has a 16000mb input tank, and an output tank of corresponding size, depending on how much the fluid expands when heated.

Heat transfer rate: △Tx0.01 TU/t

Operation

Exploded boiler
Exploded boiler

Place and fuel a firebox or similar, and place a boiler on top. To change between fluids, use fluid IDs (crude oil identifier for example) by right clicking the boiler with a fluid ID.

The boiler has 3 connections for universal fluid ducts- one on top, two on the sides.

Improper operation can result in explosion (boiler will explode if output tank overflows). The industrial boiler does not explode.

Trivia

  • Boilers can dance when they are nearing their limit, this may be a stress reliving activity for the boiler, who is sentient and can feel pain.
  • You knowingly enslave boilers to their death to forward your industrial goals, you monster.
