🔌 Kayser's Compact Coal Power

Discussion of the blueprint 🔌 Kayser's Compact Coal Power.

A system with just one generator, one flywheel, and one turbine will perform very poorly under variable loads. In testing, there was a momentary power drop from 15 MW down to 3.8 MW. It looks nice, but how practical is this solution?

@YuS are you saying shafts with 2+2+2 perform better?

@Kayser Probably a bit better. But only if one turbine runs continuously while the other operates in variable mode.

Yes, it means a single turbine can make use of both flywheels, meaning fewer starts/stops. I might make a long shaft version in the future.

Long shaft version now available.

nice if you add 3 more space to your turbines in long build you can make all for 4 flywheels.
