This save uses the temp digitisation feature of TSNS and uses HSWC to maintain a contstant temp.Probably the easiest way to make lasers now.

    Some testing later, and the concept of temp digitization could sustain temperatures of about 9650C, actually VERY hot... However, that was swapped out for a URAN-PUMP laser, which could sustain 9700C. The difference is only 50C. Still impressive that HSWC and FILT could manage that kind of temperature, given that there is NO heat coming from either of them naturlly..

    +1 Very interesting concept, looks like this could benefit future saves!

    Well, it's as i said it's a concept save.You can easily make suitable mechanism to increase its efficiency and no, it won't be larger than a few more pixels.I still think this has the potential to be used in lasers.

    The speed and power of URAN heating and LIFE cooling is unmatched. This method, although small, would require a huge. The laser I have built has a VERY high power output. (sustained temp of 9500C with many PCLN, source: id:2097328) It could be used as a melter/soidifier engine, though. There, you just need raw heat to be applied continuously, rather than have that heat being carried away via energy particle (photons/neutrons etc.).

    It's a quick but VERY inefficient way of heating and cooling a laser. MAX normal operating temp: 1100C with one and a tiny laser.. At that rate, it would take at least 48 to get it up to max temp. I would resort to the tried-and-true uranium-pump combo. It would be too many parts, AND you would only need more to sustain a hotter laser for longer. However, a TON of the HSWC could make a small but hot laser.

    SecretNinja59: did you even look at the save?

    +1 i wish i understood how it worked
