Usage[edit]

The Kinetic Steam Generator requires a Steam Turbine. First, pipe steam into the Kinetic Steam Generator. Then, place a Kinetic Generator adjacent to it to transform the produced Kinetic Energy into EU. The steam will condense on the turbine the Kinetic Steam Generator will fill with Distilled Water that can be piped out and recycled back into a Steam Generator if desired. It should be noted that a Condenser is needed to prevent steam explosions if the steam is being pumped in directly from a Steam Generator. More information about that can be found here.

If Superheated Steam normal steam will be condensed instead of Distilled Water. The steam can then be piped into a second Kinetic Steam Generator. The kU output will be double when using Superheated Steam compared to normal Steam. The damage to the Steam Turbine over time is half that of normal steam.
