Recently playing Mekanism's nuclear fusion, trying the liquid transport node of Extra Utilities in the water supply solution of the salt water tower.

I did some experiments and measured the data related to the use node upgrade-world interaction to extract unlimited water.

(Use version: MC 1.7.10 EXU 1.2.12)

(FTBWIKI's information is unreliable, and currently the measured data is prevailed. The entry of the encyclopedia has been added.

Let's talk about the conclusion:

Using liquid transport nodes+1 node upgrade-world interaction above the infinite water, the efficiency is 2000MB/s, work 2 times per second, and take 1000MB of water each time.

Every time an increase of a node upgrade-world interaction, total efficiency increases by 1000MB/s

Each additional node upgrade-speed improvement, the number of working times per second +1

Maybe many people cannot understand what is the use of the number of working times per second. Here is an explanation:

The built-in cache of the liquid transportation node is 8000MB and cannot be increased, so when we add 15 nodes to the node to upgrade-world interaction, the total efficiency reaches 16000MB/s. When working twice per second, the output is 8000MB each time to reach the reach to reachlimit.

Once our total efficiency exceeds 16000MB/s, the actual water pumping efficiency will be restricted by the 8000MB cache. Continue to increase node upgrades-world interaction. The actual water pumping efficiency will only have 16000MB/s.

At this time, it is necessary to add nodes to the node to upgrade-increase speed and increase the number of working times per second to continue to improve the efficiency of water pumping.

in other words:

Node upgrade-World interaction determines the lower limit of pumping efficiency, the value = 1000MB/s x (upgrade quantity +1).

Node upgrades-speed improvement determines the upper limit of water pumping efficiency, value = 8000MB/time x (upgrade quantity +2).

Finally, take mekanism salt water tower as an example:

The maximum conversion efficiency of the 18 -layer (highest) salt water tower is 3000MB/T water-> 300MB/T salt water

(20t = 1S, so the water pumping efficiency we need is 6000MB/s)

In order to make the lower limit of water pumping efficiency, we add 59 nodes to the liquid transportation node to upgrade-world interaction.

Then we need to improve the upper limit of water pumping efficiency, we add 6 nodes upgrade-speed improvement

In this way, the total efficiency of our pump is 60,000MB/s, working 8 times per second, and 7500MB each time, without a cache of more than 8000MB, the goal is achieved.

Hope to be useful to you.
