Electric Blast Furnace (GregTech 5)/ja

Electric Blast Furnace(電気高炉、略してEBF)は、で追加される機械である. 従来のかまどに対するアップグレード版に相当する. 3x3x4のマルチブロック構造を持ち、で動作する. また、通常のかまどでは精錬できないような、より高度な素材を精錬することができる.



建築
Electric Blast Furnaceは高さ4ブロックで、真ん中のブロックが空であるような3x3の箱で構成されている. 一番上の層は、3x3の真ん中に(マフラーハッチ)を置き、その周りを8個の(耐熱マシンケーシング)で囲うように設置する. Muffler Hatchは、空気ブロックに面した状態で上向きにする必要がある.

中間の2層は、16個の(加熱コイル)を中が空になるように設置する.

一番下の層には、以下の機械やバス、ハッチをすべて設置する必要がある. また、酸素ガスを必要とするようなレシピでは、これらに加えて(入力ハッチ)を設置する必要がある.
 * (電気高炉制御ブロック)1個を任意の面の中央に設置(角への設置は不可)
 * (メンテナンスハッチ)を1個
 * (入力バス)を1個以上
 * (出力バス)を1個以上
 * (エネルギーハッチ)を1個以上
 * 残りの部分にを設置

Control Blockのレシピは以下の通りである：

There are two limitations on what materials an Electric Blast Furnace can smelt: Voltage and Heat Capacity. Both are determined by the structure of the EBF. Voltage is determined by the tier and number of es used. Heat Capacity is determined by what were used.


 * Cupronickel Coils have a Heating Capacity of 1800 Kelvin.
 * Kanthal Coils have a Heating Capacity of 2700 Kelvin.
 * Nichrome Coils have a Heating Capacity of 3600 Kelvin.
 * Do not mix different types of Heating Coils.

GregTech Unofficial adds 4 additional tiers of Coils:
 * Tungstensteel Coils have a Heating Capacity of 4500 Kelvin.
 * HSS-G Coils have a Heating Capacity of 5400 Kelvin.
 * Naquadah Coils have a Heating Capacity of 7200 Kelvin.
 * Naquadah Alloy Coils have a Heating Capacity of 9001 Kelvin.

Usage
All Electric Blast Furnace recipes consume either 120 EU/t or 500 EU/t. However, as the MV Energy Hatch requires Aluminium—which can only be smelt in an EBF—to craft, the first EBF's structure must contain 3 LV Energy Hatches to prevent the machine from being overloaded. (Two would be enough ordinarily, but if any Maintenance problems are present, the EBF's energy consumption jumps from 120EU/t to 132EU/t, greater than the 128EU/t afforded by two LV Energy Hatches.)

Power is the most important issue when using an EBF. As it requires MV Electricity when only LV is available, it requires 5 Basic, , or. 5 Steam Turbines consume 510 L Steam/tick, equal to 34, 17 s, or one fairly expensive. If a supply of Oil is readily available, a can easily supply enough Diesel to run a Blast Furnace.

One of the primary uses of the Electric Blast Furnace is the smelting of Iron into Steel. While the can also produce Steel from Iron, the Electric Blast Furnace is faster and more energy efficient. Compare the Bronze Blast Furnace smelting one Iron Ingot into one Steel Ingot in 6 minutes for 4 Charcoal as opposed to the Electric Blast Furnace smelting one Wrought Iron Ingot into one Steel Ingot in 5 seconds for approximately 20,000 EU, including Oxygen and Wrought Iron processing. Using High Pressure Coal Boilers, 4 Charcoal can produce far more than 20,000 EU.

Another important use of the Electric Blast Furnace is the smelting of Silicon Ingots, for if is installed alongside GregTech, all of its circuit recipes consume Silicon Plates. Silicon Dust can most easily be acquired by Silicon Dioxide Dust, a process which also generates 2000L Oxygen (useful for Steel or Annealed Copper). Silicon Dioxide Dust is most easily acquired by Glass Dust.

As with all other GregTech multiblock machines:
 * Insufficient energy supply will destroy the currently processed material.
 * When the Output Bus is full, the Electric Blast Furnace will continue to work and will destroy all newly produced items.
 * Do NOT build a multiblock machine over chunk borders. Doing so can lead to unpredictable behavior. If the player has installed (which is highly recommended), chunk borders can be viewed by pressing F9 (by default).
 * Before using the Electric Blast Furnace for the first time, must be performed.
 * To activate or deactivate the Electric Blast Furnace, hit its control block with a.
