Ftb Solar Panel Output

Using a voltmeter it is possible to read the power output of a solar panel.

Ftb solar panel output.

The ftb config files are set up by default to use the gregtech recipe. The solar panel is a block added by actually additions. It is one of the many types of eu generators. The solar panel from industrialcraft 2 is an upgraded version of the generator that produces eu from the sun.

The normal ic 2 recipe and a more expensive version added by the gregtech mod. The panel has an internal buffer of 10 000 000 eu and will output power at a maximum rate of 8192 eu t. During nighttime or bad weather conditions such as rain it still generates 2048 eu t. The hybrid solar panel is an upgrade from the advanced solar panel they generate 64 eu t eu per tick during clear days which is 1 536 000 eu for one full day 8 eu t during the night and rain snow and output 128 eu t.

Power will output to any side except the top. In newer versions of ftb mc 1 4 7 and later part of the recipe requires 2 uu matter for the sunnarium part used in the irradiant reinforced plate. It has an internal buffer that can hold 32000 eu and charge 4 items simultaneously. The hybrid solar panel is part of the advanced solar panels industrialcraft 2 add on.

You can always use the nei recipe viewer to determine which recipe your ftb pack is configured to use. For residential applications a typical solar panel is about 260 270 watts meaning that in perfect conditions that solar panel could produce 260 watts of power in a given instant for reference an led light bulb uses about 10 watts. Connecting one solar panel to a battery box through a blue alloy wire will produce an output of about 2a. Most home solar panels on the market today have power output ratings ranging from 250 to 400 watts with higher power ratings generally considered preferable to lower power ratings.

Energy is output from the buffer at a rate of 32 eu t. It will generate 8 crystal flux per tick cf t when in daylight. It generates 4096 eu t during daytime with clear skies. Solar panels actually have two crafting recipes.

Like other solar panels it requires a clear line of sight to the sky in order to operate. It will create 1eu t. Solar panels output power at a rate of 1 eu t during daylight hours from 6 20 to 17 45. The solar panel will only create eu during a clear day and if there are no opaque blocks above it.

Solar panel output is expressed in units of watts w and represents the panel s theoretical power production under ideal sunlight and temperature conditions.
