Diesel Generator (Immersive Engineering)

The Diesel Generator is a 3x5x3 multi-block added by Immersive Engineering. It is used to create Redstone Flux (RF) from Biodiesel and Fuel.

Construction
The Diesel Generator is relatively simple to make. It uses 9 Radiators, 6 Generator Blocks and 27 Heavy Engineering Blocks total.



After it is fully arranged, the player must right-click the top-center block of the front side (which should be a Generator Block) with an Engineer's Hammer, then the multi-block is complete.



Usage
The Diesel Generator does not have a GUI. Fuel is entered through the rightmost-bottommost blocks of the longer sides of the multi-block. RF is output through the top of the three frontmost blocks (each has a small Copper-looking dot on them). The multi-block's processes can be halted via Redstone through the "control panel", the center block of the right-side.

Burning 1000 mB (One Bucket) of Biodiesel will cause the Diesel Generator to make 1024 RF/t for 6.25 seconds, and (BuildCraft) Fuel for 18.75 seconds.

1000mB of Biodiesel will produce 128,000 RF over the course of the burn time (1024RF/t * 20 t/sec * 6.25 sec = 128,000 RF).

1000mB of BC Fuel will produce 384,000 RF over the course of the burn time (1024RF/t * 20 t/sec * 18.75 sec = 384,000 RF).

For the Diesel Generator to produce continually at full power, it needs 160mB of Biodiesel per second, which equates to 1 Wheat, Pumpkin, or Melon Seed in an Industrial Squeezer and 1 Sugar Cane, melon, or Apple in a Fermenter per second (although 2 Industrial Hemp Seeds could be used every 3 seconds in place of the other seeds).

When the Diesel Generator processes, it makes a fairly significant amount of noise.
