Liquid fuel VS Enriched fuel block
Posted: Mon May 27, 2019 1:36 am
For whoever in the future that needs answer
If I want to generate power using Liquid Fuel, which is more efficient?
Directly burn the liquid fuel in Oil Burning Generators
OR
Transform the liquid fuel into Enriched Fuel Block, burn it boilers, make steam and use a steam engine/turbine
OR
Burning the liquid fuel in an Oil Burning Boiler, make steam and use a Steam Engine/Turbine
I've create the 3 above setups, hooked them to accumulators and got those conclusions:
With 100 Liquid Fuel, the Oil Burning Generators generate a total amount of 230 MJ
With 100 Liquid Fuel, the Oil Burning Boilers generate enough steam to amount a total of 230 MJ
When transforming the 100 Liquid Fuel into 5 Enriched Fuel Block, burning it in a boiler, make steam and use a Steam Engine/Turbine, the amount generated reaches 249 MJ
My conclusion:
Transforming the Liquid Fuel into Enriched Fuel Blocks is more efficient.
