Very interesting. Everything looks fine. With your power plant, for the number to be off by a full 50 BTU, there'd need to be some other module(s) running using a total of just over 1MW of power. I doubt you'd miss something like that twice. It was 118 second until the "Heat levels critical" message popped up in the top-right corner, just before your temperature went over 100%?Just repeated, got the same result.

The efficiency value there comes to 0.4 * (1 - 0.016) = 0.3936 therms/mj

Time to overheat was 118 seconds
0.3936 * 118 * 10.72 = 497.88
Rounded up to 500
I was ~400ls from the star (1ls from station), so there shouldn't be any outside environmental factors.
No problem. I'm definitely interested to see what you come up with. With 50 BTU of difference between these two results, there's definitely something going on here that we're missing.Well, maybe I did it wrong. I'll redo it later and provide a documentation video. Sorry if I misled anyone.
