Description
another transmutation circle i made, used to transmute iron canisters of hydrogen and oxygen gas into water vapor (probably wouldn't work, is pretty anyway). i thank the deviantartist Notshurly for allowing me to learn everything i know about alchemy.

if anyone cares, here is how the circle works: the oxygen and hydrogen canisters are placed on their respective points at the edge of the circle, three of each type being needed. i did this as the transmutation only required two ingredients, and triangles cannot have two points. i can't very well have an unbalanced ingredient set, or the array probably wouldn't do anything. anyway, a decided on a two-triangle array, one opposite from the other, making a star of david-type shape. six divided by three is two, and that's the number of ingredients i need, as well as using the triangles to make sure the transmutation stays confined to the array. though in retrospect, the double triangle design was stupid, as the transmutation will require twice as much hydrogen as oxygen if water is being made, though the solution is simple: bigger hydrogen canisters. enough about that, though. now, when the transmutation actually occurs, the first things to happen are the iron the canisters are made of is filtered out through the disposal nodes and reassembled into small spheres for easy retrieval. the gasses are circulated around the array and are formed into the classic H2O structure, two hydrogens and one oxygen, when they hit the unification symbols. they are then circulated into the center from the outer circle to the inner circle, via the lines connecting to two, starting at said symbols. the water is then spontaneously heated to five hundred degrees fahrenheit, and it becomes steam, the final product. that's how it should work, at least. the reason i chose steam was water would wash the array away, and that would be bad, especially if the transmutation were still occurring.
