    Hey, SubliminaL!! ----- PLEASE read this. ----- I think you may find this interesting and perhaps useful.
    I have noticed a SIGNIFICANT difference in the amount of time I can use afterburners in my Cutlass Black after upgrading the stock coolers to Snowpacks. I suspect (I don't KNOW) that coolers perform as intended and do actually have an impact on the ship's systems performance. I believe that coolers have a significantly lower OBSERVABLE effect on weapon systems because the power flow of those systems is static i.e., the same powerplant, same weapons, same coolers performing the same task (this is key). You DID see a nominal difference in cooling rate after all.
    With that said, when you change the testing parameters to observing cooling/coolers vs thrusters, NOW we're in a whole different ballpark. I say that because the size and number of thrusters on different ships vary WILDLY as do the thrust-to-weight ratios. The Cutlass Black has obviously oversized main thrusters relative to its mass/weight. When I installed Snowpacks on the Cutlass Black I can run afterburners from a velocity of 0 to more than 750 m/s (nearly 75%-80% of full speed). Furthermore, I can re-engage afterburners slightly sooner than I can with the stock coolers without risk of overheating again. I also found that using afterburners while maneuvering makes the Cutlass more agile (a little quicker to pitch and yaw) and I can maneuver this way nearly indefinitely, in short bursts, during a dogfight. I attribute this to all of the "headroom" afforded to me by the more than capable coolers, displayed on Erkul as "537 k/s / 17600 k/s" with weapons firing, the turret firing, maneuvering the ship, and shields charging.
    I find that a given coolers' performance gains are much more noticeable with regard to the use of thrusters, which is a gradual "ramping up" of power and heat, vs the repeatedly "static" power draw of a weapon system. Whereas thrusters increase in heat and power usage from 5% (idle) to 100% (max thrust), weapon systems (like the Panthers used in your video) are more akin to repeated power draw spikes of 100% in rapid succession. I hypothesize that coolers do a better job of cooling thrusters because thrusters take time to request power from low to high, whereas weapons draw 100% of the power they require instantly and repeatedly. Kind of like pushing a nail into a block of wood with a hydraulic press instead of beating the nail into the wood with a very fast hammer. Did that make sense?
    My Cutlass Black is equipped as follows: JS-400 PWR, Snowpack CLR (x2), FR-76 SLD, XL-1 QTD, Behring Shredders (x6)(pilot & turret), Assailant IV (x6)
    DPS Calculator loadout: ----- www.erkul.games/calculator;loadout=MPfD58xF
    -----
    With respect, I truly enjoy your videos, and the information you provide to the community is invaluable. I do NOT disagree with your findings with regard to coolers vs weapon systems. I am simply attempting to illustrate that thrusters benefit more (observably) from cooling because there is a significant difference in how they draw power and build up heat.
    As an academic version of "let's challenge ourselves", I invite you to run the tests again, and publish another video, with a focus on cooling thrusters, instead of weapons, testing the efficiency of the coolers on a few different ships of varying size, paying special attention to the size of the main thrusters of a given ship vs its mass/weight (thrust-to-weight ratios).
    KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!

    🚧🚧CORRECTION🚧🚧
    Removing or powering down your coolers does not *KILL* the ship. Just renders it useless for around *10 min* . Still cool lol.
    There is also another question, does having a beefy cooler lower your IR... Nope. This can actually be measured at a particular frame in the video.The first frame of the acceleration test. I was idle and let the ship calm down before accelerating. Here are the results.
    | | Ship IR | Cooler Temp to IR |
    | Zero Rush | 5985 | 3.13 |
    | Ultra Flow | 6062 | 6.09 |
    | Bracer | 6940 | 3.78 |
    As you can see the only difference in IR is what erkul says each cooler adds to your IR signature.

    • @eksoskel1191
      @eksoskel1191 3 года назад +1

      I'm confused about what you're saying here. Based on the data above it doesn't look like the Ship IR & Cooler Temp to IR metrics correlate. I'm also confused about what Cooler Temp to IR is meant to mean and how its units compare to those of the IR signature.

    • @SubliminaLstv
      @SubliminaLstv  3 года назад

      I'm confused about what your asking. Each component has a Temp to IR. This contributes to the overall IR signature of the ship. Coolers do not effect IR outside of what it's "Temp to IR" adds to the overall IR of the ship. Essentially coolers don't make you more stealthy. But some of course some coolers are more stealthy than others. Just to make sure I answer all questions... Higher Max cooking rate does not lower your IR. As a matter of fact a cooler with a higher Max cooking rate would probably raise your IR, because of the nature of industrial components not being concerned with stealth.

    • @eksoskel1191
      @eksoskel1191 3 года назад

      ​@@SubliminaLstv Thanks for responding!
      Sorry, let me try to clarify my question. I understand you're saying that cooling rate doesn't directly impact IR signature, which makes sense. It sounds like "Cooler Temp to IR" (I'll abbreviate this CTIR from now on) is the only metric that measures a cooler's impact on your IR signature, which again makes sense. What confuses me is how to translate the CTIR metric into its impact on your IR signature.
      For example, the interpretation I expect is that a higher CTIR to end up producing a higher IR signature. (This based on reading it as "this amount of temp to your IR signature"). If this were the case though, you would expect the Ultra Flow (which has the highest CTIR) to have the highest IR signature, but according to your data above, it's IR is barely worse than the Zero Rush, and much better than the Bracer. In terms of CTIR, Zero Rush < Bracer < Ultra Flow, but in terms of IR, Zero Rush < Ultra Flow < Bracer. If Ultra flow has the most extreme CTIR why does it have the middle IR value in your data?

The theory is that a cooler with a higher max cooling would preform better than one with a lower max cool.

    • @SubliminaLstv
      @SubliminaLstv  4 года назад +1

      Those tests have already been done by other people with the same result. Most builds are "pipe limited" CIG has talked about the "pipe system" and how they are going away from that. I know its hard to believe that they have this simple system for coolers but I think was just a placeholder. There is a lot of code in the game files like this that is written but doesn't actually work. For example the armor reduction for EM IR and CS has been in the games code for a while and has just became functional in 3.9.

    Heads-up: 1:38 "Your ship is now dead and will need an insurance claim to be operational again" is not what I found.
    I was testing overheating on the PTU last night to see how long my VTOL engines could sustain flight without my coolers powered on.
    -My ship overheated then shut off completely.
    -When I powered the ship back on all of my MFDs were blank.
    -I thought the ship was dead in the water but I was on PTU so I exited the pilot seat and tested other items I wanted to check out.
    Eventually I heard the engines kick back on after 10-20 minutes (I wasn't timing) and I went back to my pilot chair to find that everything rebooted.
    I'm guessing thats how long it took the systems to cool down without the coolers working. So no need to call triple A.

    The only use case I can think of for upgrading the coolers, apart from power draw request, is in the future.
    When in combat our modules will take individual damage then. A cooler providing more cooling (whatever the "k" stands for!) will be more viable at 50% damage state than a lower output cooler.
    Perhaps?

      Well when coolers can be sub-targeted someone could destroy 1 and it would be great to have 2 coolers that can each run the ship independently. And Dammit lol. k stands for kilo... kilo is 1000 times more than the number before it!

If physical damage is not "On", i strongly suggested to use industrial cooler because they have higher resistances to degradation and heat decay.(I think that's right .. after all they are industrial part), clearly if physical damage in "ON" they have worse damage and distortion resistances added to a shorter life,example, 1850 for a glacier VS 1500 Ultraflow

  • @tigerseye1202
    @tigerseye1202 3 года назад

    This guide is a couple of patches old, but I think even back in 3.10 I started messing with loadout optimization and overclocking. And I have to say that there was a noticeable difference in burst time when upgrading my coolers to Ultra-Flows. I was able to overheat my weapons, start firing again at the same time as with the lower grade coolers, but getting longer bursts.
    My guess would be that this is an effect of the power draw request time. I think that because you start firing immediately after the overheating warning disappears, the coolers don't have time to wind up, so they end up performing equally. But if you give it, say, 3 seconds, the coolers with the lower request time should be starting to cool faster then the ones with higher request times. If you then give it another couple seconds, the coolers with the higher capacity should start cooling faster (given that there's enough heat to be cooled).

    If it goes form 0 to 440 in 8 seconds, than it has about 220k/s in 4 seconds (55k/s^2). And that is pretty close to Zero Rush 238 in 3 (about 75k/s^2). But Bracer is only 20k/s^2
    I think we can assume that components cooling pipes has the same stat (request time) and just cant take cooling quicker. Idk, lets say weapons has "100k/s max cooling and 6 second request time". All coolers will just fill that up.

    260,000 kJ = 246,432 BTU (British Thermal Units)
    A good air con unit will do 20,000-24,000 BTU (that would cover a 5m*5m*5m room)
    Thus a single bracer would be roughly equivalent to 10-12 air con units (pretty reasonable for 930 years in the future!)
    I'd say it sounds right considering its cooling engines with enough impulse to push out of atmo, a drive capable of 0.9C and weapons capable of tearing through a tank...

  • @austinm5630
    @austinm5630 4 года назад

    The thing to understand about coolers when it comes to weapons specifically is that each weapon has its own internal cooling limits. Even though Hardpoint hasn't been updated since 3.9, weapon cooling data hasn't changed since then, so you can still see this there. As a result, the only stat that matters on a cooler, as it relates to weapons, is capacity. The weapon's own internal cooling will bottleneck LONG before the ship's cooling comes into play. This is why you didn't see any difference in your tests - the Panthers exceeded their own internal heat capacity ages before the ship's cooling came into play.
    tldr Since each gun has its own capacity, each gun has its own max cooling rate, and ship coolers far exceed this rate, the rate at which ship coolers supply coolant to the guns is basically completely irrelevant.

  • @mintberry6014
    @mintberry6014 4 года назад +1

    So this has me wondering. If the “pool” aka the cooling rate is the only difference, will coolers have more of a role when component degradation is implemented. Basically, they can’t really balance coolers atm because everyone will just purchase the meta. But when degradation is online, your cooler may cool faster but at the cost of component life expectancy. Sorta like tires, the harder you drive the short the life. I know this is all hearsay but it has me wondering why they would have a component that does nothing for performance minus the total pool of cooling.

    • @TheYang2208

      Mint Berry that makes no sense, sorry. Keeping components cooler should lengthen their lives, not shorten them.

    • @mintberry6014
      @mintberry6014 4 года назад

      ChillAndGrill I agree but the cooler component would break more rapidly due higher usage. When I said component earlier I was still talking about the cooler itself. Basically I was saying any part you use hard, breaks faster.

    question, how do coolers effect your ability to be targeted while in a fight? does it effect your ability to stay below the stealth line?

  • @michaelwayne680
    @michaelwayne680 4 года назад +1

    If the cooler is made to manage multiple systems the stress test should be under extreme stress using thrusters and overclocking shields and weapons I believe that is why the difference is so insignificant. If the game designers tested by individual component output our ships would fail under heavy use say in a dog fight with turrets filled and shields overclocked.

    • @SubliminaLstv
      @SubliminaLstv  4 года назад +1

      I did do that type of test on stream but it wasn't very scientific due to the time it takes me to move hands between the keyboad and mouse. Still no difference. Because if you understand the pipe system it will not make a difference. Viewing the coolers with erkul with all the sliders on is running that exact scenario. As long as erkul says you have enough cooling you can do anything with the ship and never see any difference other than what you saw here which came down to server latency.

  • @phizc
    @phizc 3 года назад

    Heat is energy (joules, calories), so the logical unit for cooling would be watts.
    Think of a firework sparkler compared to a pot of boiling water. The sparks from the sparkler has a much higher temperature (1000-1600 °C), while the water has a temperature of 100°C. The sparks won't burn you whereas the water will, because the mass of the sparks is tiny and therefore has less thermal energy than even a drop of boiling water which is much larger.
    The sparkler would hurt you if you held your hand very close and you get hit with many sparks I'm the same place or touch the source if the sparks of course. Much higher mass.

  • @danwatt5789
    @danwatt5789 4 года назад +6

    "So what this means is, coolers don't do *beep*" Sub I think you may have missed a trick here. What it means is that when doing only 1 thing, then the difference is minimal, but what about when you are under fire and your shields are recharging, you are firing all weapons AND using your burners?! I know, probably no difference as well... but just saying!

    • @jeffbangle4710
      @jeffbangle4710 4 года назад +3

      Agreed. Although the cooling provided to individual components is limited by the capacity of the individual "pipes" leading to each component, can your coolers provide max capacity to *all* the pipes simultaneously? And what if one of your two coolers is damaged? Can your remaining cooler provide enough capacity on its own? The answer might still be "don't do *beep*" yet, but I am not convinced that your current testing answers that question.

    • @LegacyFleet

      Dan I dont think your understanding, erkuls pie chart shows how much cooling all of that uses. The pipes are the limiting factor. You either have enough cooling or you don't. When you dont your ship behaves differently. If you have enough there isnt anything you can do to a ship to get it to overheat in an abnormal way. I'm not the only one who has done testing and came up with the same conclusion. I just decided to illustrate why having extra k/s cannot effect components.
