squeaker0704 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 but if you notice the liquid hydrogen level in the tanks is not changing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman.Spiff Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Maybe try emptying the tanks before launch. That would show the problem better. Looks like its working ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gefer8 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 The Vulcan Smelter seems to not be working correctly when I settled up a mining operation. The NSW tanks are at the bottom, and are about 75% full. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktosiu Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Are such low values for exospheric scooping with Bussard to be expected? This is ~600 Km above Sarnus, but stock Jool is similar. If my math is correct, LqdDeuterium intake is about 0.01 u per 25 kerbal days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my math is correct, LqdDeuterium intake is about 0.01 u per 25 kerbal days I guess yes, because you could use the Exo scoop for monts or even years around for example sarnus, the atmospheric one yields wayyy more but you would actually need to pilot the vessel and studd sry I'f I'm wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktosiu Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) I'm having a hard time grasping the scooping mechanics. What else is required to start collecting LqdDeuterium? Atmospheric Deuterium is discovered and identified. Hoover is taking in Hydrogen and Oxidizer but still no Deuterium (and no He3). Is there a certain abundance threshold before the scoops kick in?

Starhelperdude Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 wait you are using a atmospheric scoop in a vacuum or a near vacuum, you should use the Exo scoop may I ask what planet you are orbiting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starhelperdude Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 I would recommend you to make your craft more aerodinamic, jools lower atmo (where most recources are) will shred your design here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
