Overclocked Heat Vent
Overclocked Heat Vent is a Nuclear Reactor component that drains 36 hU/s from the hull (the reactor's stored heat) and 20 hU/s from itself.
Description
Inside a Nuclear Reactor, Overclocked Heat Vent is the part that cools the hull directly: the hull loses 36 hU/s, the vent's own heat store loses 20 hU/s, and neighboring components keep all of their heat. A reactor design that needs component cooling pairs Overclocked Heat Vent with a heat vent that lists a component venting rate. Every extra Overclocked Heat Vent costs another four Gold Plates and one Reactor Heat Vent, so a row of hull-cooling vents multiplies the gold cost.
Guide
How to Craft and Use Overclocked Heat Vent in Industrial Craft 2
-
1
Collect four Gold Plates and one Reactor Heat Vent
Each craft of Overclocked Heat Vent consumes four Gold Plates and one Reactor Heat Vent, so gather five components per planned vent.
-
2
Arrange the plus shape on a crafting grid
Place the Reactor Heat Vent in the center slot of the 3×3 grid, then set one Gold Plate above, one below, and one on each side, leaving the corners empty.
-
3
Craft the Overclocked Heat Vent
The shaped recipe yields exactly one Overclocked Heat Vent; move the crafted component from the output slot into the inventory.
-
4
Load the component into a Nuclear Reactor
Open the Nuclear Reactor interface and place Overclocked Heat Vent into a component slot, where Overclocked Heat Vent draws 36 hU/s from the hull and 20 hU/s from itself.
Overclocked Heat Vent moves no heat from adjacent reactor parts, so the hull and the heat stored in the vent itself are the only two streams Overclocked Heat Vent handles.

Frequently asked questions
What does Overclocked Heat Vent do in Industrial Craft 2?
Overclocked Heat Vent removes heat from itself and from the hull of a Nuclear Reactor at an increased rate: 36 hU/s from the hull and 20 hU/s from the vent itself.
How do you craft Overclocked Heat Vent?
Place one Reactor Heat Vent in the center of a crafting grid and four Gold Plates above, below, and on both sides; the recipe yields one Overclocked Heat Vent.
Does Overclocked Heat Vent cool neighboring components?
No. The component venting rate is absent, so Overclocked Heat Vent pulls heat only from the reactor hull and from itself.
Is Overclocked Heat Vent a block or an item?
Overclocked Heat Vent is a reactor component that works inside the slots of a Nuclear Reactor interface.
What separates Overclocked Heat Vent from the Reactor Heat Vent?
Overclocked Heat Vent is crafted from a Reactor Heat Vent and removes reactor heat at an increased rate.
