The Gas Furnace is a furnace that burns combustible fluids instead of solid fuel. It needs no electricity.

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

Fill the tank with a combustible fluid (the same fuels the Combustion Generator accepts, see List of Fuels). The Gas Furnace drains 250 mB at a time, and that fuel lasts for 400 × (the fuel's FE/t rating) ÷ 4 ticks, so better fuels last longer. It smelts with vanilla blasting recipes when one exists for the item, and otherwise with normal smelting recipes, taking 200 ticks per item. An upgrade in the upgrade slot shortens the processing time (see Machine upgrades). An upgrade also makes the fuel last proportionally less long.

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.
