How to build

  1. One holder per turbine: LuV hull, 4 HSS-S gears, 6 HSS-S rounds, 1 LuV motor, 4 small RPP gears, 1 RPP ring and 288 mB PTFE in a LuV-tier assembler (circuit 3). Make one, test it, then one per turbine. — gtceu:luv_assembler, gtceu:luv_rotor_holder
  2. Swap the EV rotor holder of each Large Gas Turbine for the LuV one (the rotor moves over). Read the new output on the turbine and change the dynamo hatch to match. — gtceu:gas_large_turbine, gtceu:luv_rotor_holder
  3. Fuel: each upgraded turbine eats about 3.2x as much nitrobenzene, so add chemical reactors to the EV nitrobenzene line before the swap, not after. — gtceu:nitrobenzene_bucket, gtceu:hv_chemical_reactor

Tips

  • Rotor holder rule (pack quest + gtceu jar): each rotor holder tier above the turbine controller doubles the power (multiplier 2^(holder tier - controller tier)) and burns 1.8x the fuel, about 10 % better efficiency per tier. A LuV holder on the EV Large Gas Turbine is 2 tiers up: 4x power for about 3.2x fuel (derived).
  • LuV rotor holder (pack recipe): LuV hull + 4 HSS-S gears + 1 LuV electric motor + 4 small rhodium plated palladium gears + 6 HSS-S rounds + 1 RPP ring + 288 mB PTFE, circuit 3, a LuV-tier assembler recipe.
  • Rotors: dragonsteel is a ZPM material (EBF 7 100 K, ZPM hatch, naquadah coils), so do not plan dragonsteel rotors in LuV; prismalium (rotor power 1600) is later still.
  • Rotor holders cannot be shared between turbines (gtceu jar: canShared = false): one holder per turbine. Walls, fluid hatches and dynamo hatches can be shared (see the Combos phase).
  • This is generation; the Power Substation (luv_power) only stores it. Community reports: LuV turbines on LuV rotor holders in 3 reported setups.
  • Unverified the Large Gas Turbine base output and rotor stats, so the dynamo tier: read the turbine tooltip after fitting the LuV holder and use a dynamo hatch of that voltage.
