Kit (Gas Fuel Generator)

2023-02-09T04:23:50Z

AttemptingReason: updated for reduction of output with O2 fuel and addition of NO2 fuel. the 1kpa starting point is also probably too high now, since 1.2kpa is enough for full speed operation. removed the note about fuel buildup since it seems irrelevant now.

== Description == 
As the big brother of the [[Portable Generator]] the Gas Generator requires [[fuel]] and outputs crazy amounts of power if you don't throttle its gas input.

== Notes == 
* Use a pressure regulator on the input and start it as low as '''0.1kpa''' (Use a [[Labeller]] to enter decimal values), since it can be difficult to keep cool.
* Recommended to connect to a [[Kit (Battery)]] and to automate it as backup power.<br>
* Can be used in conjunction with a [[Atmospherics#Electrolyzer |Electrolyzer]] to generate its fuel.
* The output is a gas mix of CO2, [[Pollutant]]s, and tiny amounts of uncombusted fuel. It is not water, as would be implied by its compatibility with the Electrolyzer.
* Requires to be placed in an atmosphere to work. Minimum pressure of 20 kPA and temperature ranging between 278-328 degrees Kelvin (5-55 Celsius)
* With a standard fuel mix (33/67 O/H2) can generate up to 12kW. With NO2 fuel mix (50/50 NO2/H2) this rises to 18kW.

== Data Network Properties == 
These are all [[:Category:Data Network|Data Network]] properties of this device.

=== Data Parameters ===
These are all parameters, that can be written to with a [[Kit_(Logic_I/O)#Logic_Writer|Logic Writer]] or a [[Kit_(Logic_I/O)#Batch_Writer|Batch Writer]]. The outputs are listed in the order a Logic Writer's "VAR" setting cycles through them.
