Industrial Turbine not forming · Issue #7115 · mekanism/Mekanism
April 16, 2021 - I'm trying to build an industrial turbine but it's not forming. Photos below. I've built multiple different versions following YouTube tutorials, the FTB wiki, nothing is working. There have been no crashes associated with it, it's just not forming. Thanks for any help. https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/mruba2/mekanism_turbine_not_forming_any_help_would_be/ Here is the Reddit post so attempted fixes can be seen.

Industrial Turbine Not Dumping Excess Steam · Issue #6829 · mekanism/Mekanism
December 30, 2020 - Apparently, industrial turbines are no longer dumping excess steam. The only option that works is dump, as dumping excess does nothing. ...

Turbine issues
My turbine is set up properly and while it accepts steam it doesn’t produce any power and wont spin. I have the water output to a fission reactor and a steam input from the reactor and a boiler. It just fills with steam while doing nothing. More on github.com

Turbines not spinning even with steam input (Dumping Excess on/off, nothing changes)
You need to make batteries the pic where you show the dumping exess on the right you can see that its full of energy, that shouldnt be the case, it should always be empty. So you should make induction cells so its always doing something More on reddit.com

r/Mekanism on Reddit: Turbines not spinning even with steam input (Dumping Excess on/off, nothing changes)
April 28, 2025 -

I'm running Mekanism 10.4 on Minecraft 1.20.1.

I have a fission reactor safely burning at 12 mB/t. I'm producing about 240,000 mB/t of steam.

I have two Industrial Turbines set up. They both receive steam correctly through Ultimate Pressurized Tubes.

Both turbines are set to "Dumping Excess," but neither of them spin at all.
Even if I disconnect one turbine and leave only the other connected (so it's receiving all the steam), it still just fills the internal steam tank but the rotor doesn't move.

Flow rate shows 0 mB/t, production is 0 FE, even though Steam Input shows ~240,000 mB/t entering.

Cooling setup:

  • I have 3 Creative Fluid Tanks each individually connected to different reactor coolant inputs.

  • I also have 4 more Creative Fluid Tanks connected together, plus about 20 electric pumps, all feeding into another separate coolant input.

  • That’s a total of 4 separate coolant inputs into the reactor.

Despite all of that, if I set the reactor above 12 mB/t burn rate, it still burns through all the water and starts overheating.

Also, when I connect both turbines at the same time, steam stops flowing to the big turbine almost completely and instead rushes into the small turbine first.
It’s like the small turbine is taking priority and stealing all the steam.

Any idea what could be wrong? Why isn't anything spinning even with dumping excess enabled and tons of steam being produced?

December 3, 2022 - View in app ... your turbine is full, i don't know if that matters but try putting an energy trash can with a flux point (priority -1) ... Over-full energy tank was the issue. Thanks! ... Dumb all. Decrease the injection rate of the reactor. ... ...

February 18, 2024 - So (personally) I recommend a 5x5 square of coils in the middle, then saturating condensers around it. Instead of saturating condensers, you put turbine vents. That's why it's not forming

April 16, 2021 - In my case the problem was the height of rotor shaft. You must respect the proportions.The length of the rotor column cannot exceed 2 x TurbineWidth - 1, where TurbineWidth is the interior diameter of the turbine (BaseWidth - 2)

February 18, 2019 -

Hello, I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to ask, but I honestly don't know where else to ask.

My turbine for my reactor does not take in steam, and does not spin. It started spinning once, but only got to 25 RPM before it stopped completely. I followed a tutorial on YouTube to get the idea on how to build it, but it does not work for some reason.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

January 3, 2018 - Steam in bottom, water out top for mek turbine (though you do not have to pump it out at all) Second it seems like you might not have vents across the turbine top, or you didn't leave area above the vents to allow it to become water again.

June 2, 2021 - From what I know, the turbine Blades should never touch the glass while spinning. The Top Layer looks like it could not spin freely. I dont know if thats actually the case, but It would be worth a try. My friend made another mekanism graph, this time for ore processing

Industrial Turbine · Issue #6008 · mekanism/Mekanism
March 30, 2020 - Maybe im dumb and searching has failed me, but i cant seem to extract power from an industrial turbine. the universal power cable does not connect to the turbine valve. i tried using the configurator to force it but it still will not connect. the turbine itself sparkled red and i can open the turbine stats and production menu and the pressurized tube im using for steam also connects to the other valve i have correctly. also, likely unrelated, im using a reactor to supply steam, but once the turbine fills with steam it stops producing and just sits there, setting from idle to dumping excess does not resolve this. the build contains 8 blades, 5 coils, 8 dispersers, and 33 vents.

January 3, 2023 - Vents output automatically and mekanism pipes work with throughput of (total capacity of pipe mb/t) which is like 10x higher than pipe can push/pull by itself) Edit: 10x more with a single pipe block I mean, if you add more pipes in line you can multiply that by number of blocks ... I would also like to mention the rotors aren’t spinning at all in the industrial turbine, but I have max power as shown.
