'''Note:''' The coolant would either be output into the Canning Machine's output tank or an available {{Gin|Universal Fluid Cell}}, not both. The GUI is merely an example.


As shown, for every 1000 mB of coolant produced, using normal water requires 8 dust while using Distilled Water only requires 1 dust.

== Usage ==
Coolant can be placed in the world, but serves no useful purpose that way other than looking nice. A more practical use is to make 10K Cooling Cells.
Coolant is primarily used to craft {{Gin|10k Coolant Cell}}s, but can also be placed in the world for decorative purposes.

Coolant (in fluid form) is also a key component of energy production in [[fluid reactor]]s, where it is cyclically heated by the reactor and cooled by a [[Liquid Heat Exchanger]].
Fluid Coolant is also a key component of energy production in the {{Gin|Reactor Pressure Vessel||}} [[Fluid reactor|Fluid Reactor]], where it is heated into [[Hot Coolant]] by the reactor and cooled by a {{Gin|Liquid Heat Exchanger}}.

Experimental-Only Content: This information has been updated to the V2.X version of IC².
The most recent version of IC² is V2.8.<html>.

Coolant is a fluid in IC2 used to make Grid 10k Coolant Cell.png Coolant Cells and to cool a Grid Reactor Pressure Vessel.png Fluid Reactor.

Recipe[edit]

Coolant is made by enriching water or Distilled Water with Grid Lapis Lazuli Dust.png Lapis Lazuli Dust in the Grid Canning Machine.png Canning Machine set to Fluid Enrich mode.



Note: The coolant would either be output into the Canning Machine's output tank or an available Grid Universal Fluid Cell.png Universal Fluid Cell, not both. The GUI is merely an example.

As shown, for every 1000 mB of coolant produced, using normal water requires 8 dust while using Distilled Water only requires 1 dust.

Usage[edit]

Coolant is primarily used to craft Grid 10k Coolant Cell.png 10k Coolant Cells, but can also be placed in the world for decorative purposes.
