Recently I made a Thermo electric Boiler from Mekanism to make steam for my Turbine (also from mekanism). However my boiler diden't make nearly enough steam (aprox 80-100mb/t) to produce power from my turbine .I am using firewood heaters to heat my boiler because they seemed to produce more heat (wich resulted in more steam, 20mb/t to 100mb/t) for my boiler. However as I said above this is not nearly enough steam to make my turbine turn.
So I came here to ask if there is any better way to make heat (and steam) Or perhaps I did something wrong with my boiler. Anyways I will be greatfull for any help/advice.
I am running into trouble generating enough heat to utilize the Thermoelectric Boiler to its max capacity. The Fusion reactor is running at an injection rate of 98 mb/t and I have a thermodynamic conductor feeding the heat from the reactor to the boiler. I know the boiler can reach much higher temps, I just can't find anything online explaining this exact setup.

Here are some images of the setup as well
To increase my rate of polonium production I tried switching from water coolant to sodium coolant, however this has ended up lowering my maximum burn rate, which was counterproductive.
My main issue at the moment seems to be that my thermoelectric boiler can’t keep up with cooling the sodium. The water can’t fill the boiler quick enough, and thus can’t cool the sodium.
At the moment I’m using a Kitchen Sink and the ultimate pipes from Mekanism into the boiler valve, but it only seems to transfer 32000 water/t. The fissile reactor itself burns through 200000 sodium/t. I tried reading through the documentation, but couldn’t find anything with regard to it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
can someone explain how I am losing water from a closed loop boiler while running.
it has a max capacity 25.9 mill mB/t and I'm only using 599 K mB/t.
the temp of the boiler is 1.3 kK while running.
i want to use the thermoelectric boiler in mekanism, but i cannot figure out why but i can't seem to use all the sodium, at some point starts decreasing until the reactor overheats. if it is not that it will just start getting hot even when the reactor has sodium inside. i also want the most efficient thermoelectric boiler setup so i can have the best! any advice or source where i can get a design? i am going for the humoungous 18x18x18 size. the modpack i am playing has Project E so yeah... i really need a metric ton of power.
My thermo electric boiler is losing a lot of heat. How do I stop this from happening?
I am using a max fusion reactor on enigmatica 6
