Each Thermo Aquatuner lowers a liquid packet by 14 °C and draws 1,200 W while running. One packet per second; active time accounts for gaps. Smaller packets do not reduce the running power draw.

Turbine cooling load
61.17 kDTU/s
10% of absorbed steam heat, plus 4 kDTU/s per running turbine. Return this heat to the loop or remove it separately.
Heat accumulating in steam
0 kDTU/s
1 turbines can absorb this aquatuner load at the selected temperature and port count.
