update mechanism

  • The original distillation tower adds a thermal conduction mechanism. The bottom thermal conduction chamber absorbs heat, and the top thermal conduction chamber needs to dissipate heat.

  • The bottom provides the heat needed for the recipe, and the top provides additional time reduction (the lower the better, low gives a bonus, high gives a penalty).

  • It's very simple, just need two heaters and two coolers.

Cooling part

The cooler consumes 1B of water and returns 990mb. It won't work when the output is full, requiring a bit of control to avoid this. (Not needed in easy mode)

The calibrator is attached to the steel drum (or wooden drum, any container works) on the input side. The number 20 can be changed arbitrarily, but it's best not to let the container be full.

Cooler open allows fluid input from the output surface, automatic upward output.

Cooling part (no return water needed)

In the case of plenty of water, you don't need to consider backwater, just count it as one recipe consumption 2B that's it.

Easy mode can be simpler, just open the machine GUI to destroy fluid, other difficulties won't work.

heater part

Just copy it according to the picture; if you don't understand, you can check another wiki. (Alchemy cauldron temperature control device)

Place a red alloy wire (from More Red) on top of a redstone block.

overall picture

The following diagram shows the structural diagram required for the heavy steam cracking naphtha formulation.

12 floors high, with a thermal conduction chamber, input chamber, and output bus at the bottom, and above are 11 output chambers and one thermal conduction chamber.

BUG: Position preview of the heat conduction chamber and input chamber (to be fixed later)

When you find that the setup isn't taking shape, please refer to the figure below for comparison.

Use a solid mechanical block as the controller, and white blocks are positions that cannot be replaced with input hatches.

    Without considering backwater, you can directly destroy excess products in the cooler's GUI, and you don't need a matter assembler.

    The task says the maximum is 13 layers, but it seems to be only 12 layers at most. When I added the 13th layer, it prompted an incorrect structure. Changing the output bin to an output bus also prompted an incorrect structure. I don't know how to output solid products, and I can't make ethylene.

      The output bus can only be placed at the very bottom.
