Basic Information
Name Stirling Generator
Material tier Aluminum
Version introduced 0.0
Upgrade slot No
Energy information
Power generation 128 FE/t (the fuel's rating)
Max energy stored 5,120,000 FE
Max energy transfer 128,000 FE/t
Slots and Tanks
Item input slots 1

The Stirling Generator burns the same solid fuels as the Primitive Stirling Generator, but generates each fuel's full FE/t rating and stores much more energy.

This page describes Voluminous Energy 0.5 (Alpha 2, for 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2). All numbers are the default values from the startup config and can be changed there.

Usage

Put a solid fuel in the slot. While it burns, the generator produces the fuel's full FE/t rating (128 FE/t for every built-in fuel) for the fuel's burn time, and pushes the energy into adjacent machines.

Inventory

The "default face" is the side of the machine that automation (hoppers, pipes) uses for the slot by default, relative to the machine's front. It can be changed in the machine's IO settings.

Crafting a Stirling Generator on its own in a crafting grid returns a fresh Stirling Generator, clearing its stored data.

Notes

The config's "Fallback Generation Rate" (default 128) is not used in 0.5. The output always comes from the fuel recipe.

History

Added in 1.15.2-0.0.0.0 (the 0.0 train).
