* Efficiency drop due to temperature difference between input and waste is not linear. From 0 difference, efficiency ramps down, after goes straight, and finally levels around T diff ~= 100 (asymptote?) reaching 0% efficiency beyond. Treating it linear anyway, roughly speaking, the efficiency drops 1% per unit temperature difference. | * Efficiency drop due to temperature difference between input and waste is not linear.

* Efficiency drop due to temperature difference can be negative (>100%), if heat flow is in the working direction, but is low. | * Efficiency drop due to temperature difference can be negative (>100%), if heat flow is in the working direction, but is low. | ||
| + | * The amount of gas processed in each tick depends on a couple of variables: input pressure, as well as output pressure on both waste and output, in addition the temperature delta between the input and target temperature. | ||
NOTE: The information below was left in, in case its still useful. It may not apply to the AC unit in its current form, due to changes in the AC unit. Will require further testing. | NOTE: The information below was left in, in case its still useful. It may not apply to the AC unit in its current form, due to changes in the AC unit.
