Chlorine Cooling

Beskrivning
This mod features an alternative way to cool your base by offering you buildings that aim to resemble what air conditioners do in real life.

  • The Chlorine Compressor converts Chlorine Gas into much hotter Liquid Chlorine.
  • The Chlorine Expansion Valve converts Liquid Chlorine into much colder Chlorine Gas.

The main difference from what is already in the game is that buildings like the Thermo Regulator and Aquatuner release heat from the fluid into itself, while in my mod, the heat is released into the output fluid, which you can move elsewhere using pipes.

Another difference is that Thermo Regulators and Aquatuners remove a fixed amount of heat from the incoming fluid, while in this mod, the output temperature is increased (or decreased) by a percentage of the incoming fluid temperature. This dramatic temperature shift is to simulate what happens due to compression/expansion in addition to phase change.

The increase/decrease is by 32% in the Kelvin scale.

In Celsius, the formula is:
(Temperature in Celsius + 273.15) x 1.32 - 273.15

Tech Tree

The building is unlocked by researching HVAC.

Notes
  • The pressurized liquid chlorine will not boil inside the liquid pipe.
  • The expanded chlorine gas will not freeze inside the gas pipe.

Therefore you should not worry about breaking the pipes while using these devices.

Collaboration

I will try to fix bugs if you guys find any, but I don’t plan to expand this much further.

I’m happy to integrate other features like configuration, localization or improve the sprites if you send me the code/artwork.

no, you got it exactly right, Chlorine is probably the worst element to use for this. I made this mod as an experiment when I was not even playing the game. Once I posted it online and actually got to the point where I could place the building, I absolutely hated it and immediately started working on a version that uses water and super-coolant, which I like way more, but I haven't posted it because there are some quirks I want to resolve first.

I wanted to make this mod because I've been itching to, for years. I'm obsessed about the refrigeration cycle. I didn't look into the HVAC mod in detail, but I like their graphics.

Mh, it's a neat mod.
Whilst I like it, what could make this better than the expanded HVAC one?

I mean that the other mod permits to dump heat in liquid AND gases (ANY liquid and ANY gase), whereas this mod is limited to Chlorine only and, if I understand, you have to use radiant pipes to hot (or cold) zones in order to cool/heat them. Plus, you'll have evaporator and condenser buildings.
Now, given that Chlorine has such a low Specific Heat Capacity and Thermal Conductivity, in addition to being only 1kg per packet inside the pipe, wouldn't use it as a first choice coolant gas. Neither as a second choice, perhaps; or even not as third choice too, maybe.

Am I wrong in my assumption and/or I failed to understand how this mod works?

Thanks guys for reporting that. I don't think it's related to the "flip everything" mod. But if it happens again, please let me know.

hi, just uploaded the fix for not being able to place it.
StormSpirit 1 aug @ 16:37 
is this still having issues being placed?

Thanks Murden, Looking forward to the images :)

Great mod idea. Getting a similar issue as Shrglwyddes, as I'm also unable to build the Chlorine Compressor either. I do not have the Rotate Everything mod, but I do have an extensive mod list, so I disabled everything except this mod and was still unable to build the Compressor, in a fresh world or in sandbox mode.
Shrglwyddes 31 jul @ 18:37 
I haven’t had that rotate building mod break a building in years, so I think it’s the best implementation of building flipping. I look forward to your next update
Murden  [skapare] 31 jul @ 14:36 
Shrglwyddes, I will install that mod and see if I the same happens to me.

Operator, sure I will do that.
