About this project

What does SuperWindmills add?

This mod adds 4 windmills (version 8.2.0):
-low voltage windmill, energy generation up to 32 EU/t
-medium voltage windmill, energy generation up to 128 EU/t
-high voltage windmill, energy generation up to 512 EU/t
-very high voltage windmill, energy generation up to 2048 EU/t.
Each windmill has its own internal energy buffer:
-low voltage windmill - 1000EU
-medium voltage windmill - 10000EU -
high voltage windmill - 100000EU
-very high voltage windmill - 1000000EU.
Also, mod adds 5 rotors, each of which has its own strength and efficiency in generating energy (depends on the wind strenght):

  • wooden rotor operating time at wind speeds of up to 75 MCW - 2 hours of operation, at wind speeds of 200 MCW - 1 hour of operation, efficiency 50%
  • iron rotor operating time at wind speeds of up to 75 MCW - 4 hours of operation, at wind speeds of 200 MCW - 2 hour of operation, efficiency 75%
  • carbon rotor operating time at wind speeds of up to 75 MCW - 12 hours of operation, at wind speeds of 200 MCW - 6 hour of operation, efficiency 90%
  • steel rotor operating time at wind speeds of up to 75 MCW - 6 hours of operation, at wind speeds of 200 MCW - 3 hour of operation, efficiency 80%
  • iridium rotor - infinite strength, efficiency 100%.

Energy generation depends on wind strength and rotor efficiency. Wind strength is determined by the height at which the wind turbine is located and weather conditions.
Maximum wind strength = 100 MCW in clear weather.
Maximum wind strength in rain = wind strength at height*1.7
Maximum wind strength during a thunderstorm = wind strength at height * 2.
In addition, there are slight fluctuations in wind strength.
Thus, at the ideal height and weather conditions (thunderstorm), wind turbines will reach their peak output power.
