Re: Random Ramblings #7

that sums up the physical principle pretty well i guess.

a few notes here and there.
the pressure that most steam-turbines work with is close to 200 bar (2500 to 2800 psi) and the steam temperature rarely exceeds 530°C (930°F),

Re: Version 0.7.1

you may be right - it might not be "real-world-applicable". but since the pollution raises with the amount of coal you are burning, this functionality would encourage low pollution energy systems.
