A Pressure Disperser is a necessary part of an Industrial Turbine. They may limit a turbine's overall rate of flow if there are not enough of them in proportion to Turbine Vents (exact formula below).

Industrial Turbine - Official Feed The Beast Wiki
The Industrial Turbine is a modular multiblock structure added by Mekanism. Its sole purpose is turning Steam into power, using either Mekanism's own Joules or Forge Energy. Being highly customizable, it can be relatively small and compact, but also very large and expensive, and may therefore be adapted to the player's needs.

r/feedthebeast on Reddit: [mekanism] turbine water output
August 1, 2021 -

hey, i'm just trying stuff out here, and i've noticed that i can't actually get an industrial turbine to produce water. it's making power, and i have pipes hooked up to the vents, but there's no water coming out anywhere.

how do i make the machine actually output water? when i look at the turbine statistics, it simply says: "max water output: 0 mB/t"

i'm playing on 1.16.3, mekanism v10. i've seen someone in a tutorial do the same thing in the same version.

r/feedthebeast on Reddit: Mekanism Pressure Dispersers - Other uses?
October 17, 2023 -

For some reason, mekanism's Pressure Disperser block is part of the core mekanism mod, not the mekanism generators addon (mc1.12 - SB2).

Are there other uses for the block outside the Industrial turbine multiblock?

Can it be used to transport gases/steam like a pipe or whatnot? Or was it just a forgoten block not moved over to the addon.

StoneBlock 2 server

After many long hours of research and trying to figure out the Minecraft mod Mekanism. So here I am trying to create a guide to help people on there way to Industrial Turbines. MEGA RF/T! Each one of my Industrial Turbines require 9,360,000 mb/t with a capacity of 184,960,000 mb/t, which produce 267.42M RF/T. In a StoneBlock 2 server it is about 10 Brine to 1 Lithium Chamber.

My Set-up:

  1. 20 Thermal Evaporation Chambers with a Resistive Heaters - Producing Brine (4x4x18)

    1. Thermal Evaporation Block - 216 (3 Stacks + 24)*

    2. Thermal Evaporation Valve - 3*

    3. Thermal Evaporation Controller - 1*

  2. 2 Thermal Evaporation Chambers with a Resistive Heaters - Producing Lithium (4x4x18)

  3. 1 Electrolytic Seperators - Producing Deuterium and Tritium

  4. 2 Electrolytic Separators - Producing Deuterium and Tritium to be converted into D-T Fuel

  5. 6 Chemical Infusers (Maybe on 5 being supported) - Creating D-T Fuel to OC (Overclock) Fusion Reactors from 6. 2 Electrolytic Separators

  6. 2 Fusion Reactors receiving Deuterium and Tritium to power with the occasional D-T Fuel to OC to produce more steam.

    1. Reactor Frame - 54 (58 with no glass)*

    2. Reactor Glass - 4 (I surround the Laser Focus Matrix)*

    3. Reactor Port - 6*

    4. Reactor Controller - 1*

    5. Laser Focus Matrix - 1*

  7. 2 Industrial Turbines 17x17x18

    1. Turbine Casing - 1,006 (15 Stacks + 46)*

    2. Reactor Glass - 9 (Viewing Window)*

    3. Rotational Complex - 1

    4. Turbine Rotor - 10

    5. Turbine Fan - 20 (2 per Rotor)*

    6. Electromagnetic Coil - 5 (Each one supports 4 blades)

    7. Pressure Disperser - 224 (3 Stacks + 32)*

      1. 1 row same level as Rotational Complex*

    8. Turbine Vents - 585 (9 Stacks + 9)*

      1. Pressure Disperser level and up except edges*

Block Values are for 1 structure not all of them*

To move the liquids around I am using Fluid Laser Relay from Actually Additions; however steam is considered a liquid! What! (Water, Briner, Lithium, and Steam)

Gases are being moved around by Ender Gas Conduit from Ender IO (Deuterium and Tritium)

Resistive Heaters are attached via Thermal Evaporation Valve. Just needs to be in touch with it not connected via conduits or pipes. Something I learned through others set-ups. Especially useful in SB 2! Set to 2500 (1K rf/t)

Found the resistive heaters to max out at about 330K with 300mb/t

I have 2 fusion reactors from Mekanism water cooled from 4 sinks(2 per) to be able to support 2 maxed sized turbines.

Each reactor can support up to 980,000,000 mb of steam, so I believe it can support maybe 5 Industrial Turbines. That is strictly based off of numbers though. Still have to test.

More info on Industrial Turbine set-up: https://ftbwiki.org/Industrial_Turbine

More info on Fusion Reactor set-up: https://ftbwiki.org/Fusion_Reactor_(Mekanism)

I hope I did not miss anything and I am looking forward to criticism!

Edits made will be marked with an "*"

-Added block totals for Thermal Evaporation Chambers

-Added block totals for Fusion Reactor

-Added block totals for Industrial Turbines

r/feedthebeast on Reddit: Mekanism v9 1.10 turbine and reactor *going crazy*
May 26, 2017 -

Is it just me or is the turbine just not something that can be figured out? its always limited.. and makes about 800k rf/tick 9x9x17 and it has 105 vents 26 blades ( can't build taller )

its getting approx 24 buckets a tick of steam.. and i don't know how to get the reactor MORE water without MORE pumps

and the mechanical pipe is running 1 pipe from the reactor to turbine handeling all that.. but should be limited to 6.4 buckets?

When i try to use the quantum entangleporter i get 64 mb/tick of water per face of it?!?!?!

its almost as if the turbine is setup to not be something to ever be understood and the reactor should be used like the version 8 and JUST make power from it and don't try to make steam..

or am i just crazy and just am not understanding!?!?!

I think that the mekanism turbine is always limited, because it just tells you what to upgrade if you want to produce more power. Example: a turbine with 10 vents and 10 blades produces X RF/t. The GUI says that you are limited by blades, but you decide to ignore that and you add 5 more blades. You expect to produce a bounch more RF, but you don't, because the number of blades is still the same. If you added more blades, you would have increased your RF production. Long story short, the turbine will always be limited by something, even if you have a max sized turbine will the max number of blades, vents and pressure dispersers

So I made a small album showing my build in this thread ( https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/6bbgej/finally_got_a_chance_to_me_max_out_a_mek_reactor/ ). It actually ended up being flawed as I was limiting myself on vents, in the end you could fill up the entire ceiling of an 11x11 turbine with 81 steam vents and another 9 steam vents on each side of the turbine multiblock that is same level as the coils for an additional 36 more. This puts the total amount of blocks at roughly 28 turbine blades, ~7sh coils, 117 steam vents (double check my math on this, don't have access to the server at the moment), 80 pressure dispersers, and the rest casings/valves. Maxing out the reactor at a 98 injection rate only produced about 3kish buckets of steam - whereas a full sized turbine (once again, I repeat the one in my thread was actually not full size, it was only using about 1/3 of the possible steam vents) accepts about 4k buckets of steam to produce a max total of around ~390m rf/t. Getting the amount of buckets to maximize it is NOT practical with only mekanism installed. Even though the mechanical pipes have a way higher throughput than most other mods, you would still need hundreds of threads of pipes feeding out of multiple reactors and into the turbine since a reactor is typically limited by how many ports you can attach to it. Not to mention generating that many buckets is also very difficult for most mods without lag crippling setups - only the pressure pipes mod by bdew manages to solve this problem. However aside from min-maxing, there also isn't really a need to max out a turbine/reactor because then again - there aren't many things that eat up ~390m rf/t anyways. As for the behavior of the pipes, they can extract from a source (reactor does not auto-eject steam unfortunately) at a rate of 6.4b/t but has a capacity of 64 buckets, so if you have multiple threads extracting and condensing into one pipe that could be one explanation. Also quantum entangloporters overall aren't very useful for wireless transfer of fluids/items, and I've only really used them for gasses.

Am I missing something, or are Universal Cables not currently available with Mekanism v6? They are still added but have been changed. Instead of one kind that does everything, there are now four kinds, each able to transfer/hold more power in/through them. There upgreadable.
