has anyone been able to make Stellite?

[Barnaby Jones]

No, not satellite.

Stellite ingot: .5 cobalt, .25 silver, .25 silicon. 4-5 MPa, 1700-1900K (1427-1627C)

I have been able to make all the other super alloys, but can't get my furnace hot enough to make this one.

Simple setup of venting all output gases, and a logic setup to turn my miser on and off based on how much (pressure, not volume currently) mixed fuel is sitting in the portion between the mixer and the adv furnace.

Playing around with the input/output on the furnace itself worked for everything else after a bit of trial and error, but i cant for the life of me get the damn thing hot enough to stay hot enough to vent the inevitable pressure that is created in making it that hot in the first place.... literally barely breaking 1700k and only being there for a couple of seconds (at WAAAAAAAY too high a MPa)

Even toyed around with changing the amount of premixed fuel I have sitting there waiting for it to burn.

Anyone have any success with this one?

try 90% O2 and 10% H2 at 200kpa. What result do you get.

[Barnaby Jones]

I hadn't considered changing the fuel mix ratio...

Did all the others on the standard 67-33.

Will try it now.

[Barnaby Jones]

Are you using 100 input and 0 output at the moment of activation, or some other ratio?

[Barnaby Jones]

was able to do it at 2MPa mixer cutoff amount with the 67-33 (after I realized I hadn't set the mixer propoerly after having moved it).

ratio on the furnace was 100 input and between 53-45% output which gave about two seconds of the right temperature range while the pressure dropped into the sweet spot.

Trial and error works, when the other stuff is setup like you think it is... lol

The trick is to isolate the Advanced Furnace in a frame or room, so it won't cool off. Once the Furnace is in a closed Frame, the temperature will stop going down, and you'll get even higher temperatures than before.
