Thermic Heating Device

The Thermic Heating Device (THD) is an IV tier multiblock for heating fluids. The THD is a direct upgrade from the singleblock fluid heater because it runs at 220% speed, only uses 90% of the EU/t normally required, and offers 8 parallels per voltage tier. The THD is primarily used for heating raw growth catalyst medium, raw bio catalyst medium, and cyanoacrylate polymer (superglue).

The THD has no tiered components. Input buses/hatches are limited to the multi-use casings on the bottom layer of the structure while output buses/hatches are limited to the multi-use casings on the top layer of the structure. The remaining hatches can replace any multi-use casing anywhere on the structure. Multi-amp and laser energy hatches are not supported, but there can be multiple regular energy hatches for overclocking. Use the Multiblock Structure Hologram Projector to visualize/build the structure.

Structure

• Controller: Front center, 2nd layer
• 47 Thermal Containment Casing
• 34-37 Multi-use Casing
• 1+ Energy Hatch: Any top or bottom casing
• 1 Maintenance Hatch: Any top or bottom casing
• 1 Muffler Hatch: Any top or bottom casing
• 1+ Input Bus/Hatch: Any bottom casing
• 1+ Output Bus/Hatch: Any top casing
• Mandatory Air: Interior of the structure

Wallsharing

THDs may wallshare each of their sides to save on casings and buses/hatches. No recipe uses more than 1A of power so it is possible to share one energy hatch between two machines.

The THD is a direct upgrade from the singleblock fluid heater because it runs at 220% speed, only uses 90% of the EU/t normally required, and offers 8 parallels per voltage tier, as seen in the following table.

Raw growth catalyst medium is used in the recipe for raw bio catalyst medium so do NOT auto-stock it in the THD. Otherwise, hardly any raw bio catalyst medium is going to be made in the Bacterial Vat. Instead, pattern the THD recipe or keep a buffer tank that only outputs above a certain threshold.
