Turbine Resource Port

Attach Turbine Resource Port(s) to the casing to move steam, water, and other pack-allowed fluids between pipes/tanks and the turbine.

Typical layout: two resource ports + one power port on the same face as the Turbine Controller — see Getting started. Hover the diamonds in the scene below.

Pipe steam from your fission reactor (or any steam source) into the INSERT port. Pipe water / exhaust out of the EXTRACT port. How much the turbine can use depends on your blades — see Steam, RF, and coils.

GUI — buttons and tooltips

The turbine port uses the same screen layout as the reactor port, but no Solid row and no Fuel/Coolant filter. Hover each control in-game — text below matches the default tooltips.

Mode (top button — click to cycle)

Label	Tooltip
Insert	Pulls steam (and other allowed fluids) into the turbine.
Extract	Pushes water or exhaust fluid out to pipes.
Eject	Ejects stored fluid from the port tank to the outside.

Medium toggles (click to enable — underlined when active)

Button	Tooltip
Liquid	Click to allow or block fluids through this port.
Gas	Click to allow or block Mekanism gases through this port.

Tanks and dump

Control	Tooltip
Liquid tank (hover bar)	Liquid: amount / capacity mB, plus fluid name
Gas tank (hover bar, Mekanism)	Gas: amount / capacity mB, plus gas name
D under liquid tank	Dump: empty the internal fluid tank (fluid is discarded)
D under gas tank	Dump: empty the gas tank (gas is discarded)

Pipes and tanks connect on the outside; the inside face must point into the turbine.

After changing modes, Reboot the Turbine Controller.

Automatic capacity scaling

When the turbine re-validates, the port’s fluid tank resizes from estimated steam mB/t × 10, with a 16,000 mB floor and no fixed upper limit. Capacity grows immediately when demand increases and shrinks only if stored steam still fits the smaller size.
