The Stirling Engine, formerly called the Steam Engine, is the second tier of engine in BuildCraft and provides 10 Redstone Flux per tick (RF/t).
Recipe
Usage
The Stirling Engine must be fueled with saplings, coal, wood, or a lava bucket and it is activated with a redstone signal. It can be used to power a variety of machines such as the Mining Well. It can be connected to other Stirling Engines to add power, or can be connected to a Kinesis Pipe to transport that power elsewhere.
Power
The Stirling Engine provides 10 RF/t. The following items are burnable and last for specific amounts of time before being consumed:
| Material | Burn Time |
|---|---|
| Lava bucket | 20 min 40 sec |
| Coal, Charcoal | 1 min 20 sec |
| Wood, Wood Planks | 15 sec |
| Saplings, Sticks | 5 sec |
The smaller colored side of the Stirling Engine is the side which is providing power. The orientation of the engine can be changed using a BuildCraft wrench. A Stirling Engine will not overheat unless it is not powering anything and it builds up 10000 RF (1000 C heat) internally. Click the engine with a wrench to re-enable the engine after overheating.
Since BuildCraft 6.2, engines now overheat and no longer explode at a high temperature
