Radiator
Revision as of 15:15, 10 March 2023 by Askannon (talk | contribs) (→Corrected for Heat-Update: no more coolant, no more electricity requirement (tested today), corrected dissipation values (to values of the Heat Mechanics page/tooltip) and added heat capacity)
Radiator
Type Coolant device
Function Recycles coolant
Composition
Radiators are very effective options for cooling, though their mounting requirements leave them vulnerable to weapons fire and other hazards of space travel. Each section attached extends the radiator's performance and coolant capacity. Radiators can be used in conjunction with cooling racks but it is not required.
Types
Radiator base
Size 72×72×48 cm
Mass 1,404.8 kg
Volume 141.19 kv
Corrosion resistance 310
Primary material Bastium
Input / Output
Heat capacity 1,500
Heat dissipation 1,500 per second
Modular interfaces 2
Device interfaces 1
Composition
Basic usage
- Radiators recycle used (hot) coolant back into useable (cold) coolant.
- Coolant will run dry if the overall radiation rate is not enough to keep up with heat production.
- Mounted on a hardpoint, not the generator.
- Modular, is made from a radiator base section and radiator extensions.
- Requires power and a pipe connection to a pipe socket board.
