A cooling system design using the properties of RFRG. This uses thermometers so one can use cooling with heat sensitive components without worrying about melting them. If temperatures run past limit, respective pipe is stopped. Feel free to use w/o cred

    The solution is to prevent the refrigerant from being piped into the next stage until it is below a certain temperature. Therefore you can use fans to cool the refrigerant when it is too hot for ptct, then ptct to cool the refrigerant when it is too cold for fans to work quickly. Feel free to use with or without attribution. [2/2]

    Apologies for brevity of description, in game text box has a limit. The top left chamber is intended to use cooling that is not likely to melt. The reason for this is when I have tried to make refrigerators in the past, I sometimes get runaway temperatures which propagate through the system and melt things. One solution is to use non melting cooling (like pcln + ln2 or HEAC + fans / pumps). However some of these are not satisfying or do not cool very fast at near room temperature. [1/2]
