Abstract

This article delves into the intricacies of optimizing the TIG welding process using stainless steel 304 (SUS 304) material, with particular emphasis on small-scale industries that are heavily reliant on TIG welding, especially in the production of household equipment and fences. The objective of this research is to enhance the tensile shear load (T's load) through the Taguchi Design of Experiment (DoE), which takes into account welding current, gas flow rate, and electrode diameter as primary parameters. This study evaluates T's load and hardness across the welding zone, which includes the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and base metal. The study was conducted using a Stahlweld inverter welding machine operating at 220 V/50 Hz, and a maximum T's load of 1545.1 kgf was achieved in the fourth iteration. The optimization of T's load was carried out using SN ratio analysis and involved setting the welding current to level II, gas flow rate to level I, and electrode diameter to level II following the Taguchi DoE design. The hardness peaks in the weld area decreased in the HAZ and reached their lowest point in the base metal. These findings provide valuable insights into optimizing TIG welding parameters for thin stainless steel 304 materials, which supports Sustainable Development Goal 9 (industry, innovation, and infrastructure).

Abstract

This investigation focuses on optimizing the sinker electrical discharge machining (sinker-EDM) process parameters for high tensile strength steel (HTSS), specifically SKD-11, utilizing Box-Behnken Response Surface Methodology (BB-RSM). Sinker-EDM is a commonly used technique in manufacturing moulds, dies, and components for sectors like automotive and aerospace. This process eliminates direct contact between the electrode and the workpiece. However, its low material removal rate (MRR) constrains productivity. This research endeavours to enhance MRR by employing rectangular graphite electrodes. The Box-Behnken Response Surface Methodology (BB-RSM) was utilized to evaluate the effects of pulse current, spark-on time, and gap voltage on MRR. The optimal MRR of 45.49 mm³/min was attained at a pulse current of 16 A, spark-on time of 400 µs, and gap voltage of 45 V. ANOVA revealed that pulse current and spark-on time significantly influenced MRR. In contrast, gap voltage had an insignificant impact. Interaction and surface plot analyses confirmed that high pulse current and extended spark-on time resulted in the maximum MRR. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing the sinker-EDM process for SHTSS, contributing to enhanced productivity and efficiency in manufacturing.

Abstract

This study investigates the optimization of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding parameters for joining dissimilar metals, specifically ST37 low-carbon steel and SUS 304 stainless steel, using the Taguchi L9 experimental design. The welding parameters evaluated include welding current (45-65 A), tungsten electrode diameter (1.6-2.4 mm), and shielding gas flow rate (12-18 LPM). The aim is to enhance joint integrity and mechanical properties by systematically analyzing the influence of these parameters on hardness and tensile load (TS loads). Hardness testing revealed that the weld zone exhibited the highest hardness, followed by the heat-affected zone and base metal. Tensile testing showed that the highest TS loads of 341 kgf were achieved at 45 A, 1.6 mm electrode diameter, and 12 LPM gas flow rate. Signal-to-noise ratio analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated that welding current had the most significant influence on hardness and TS loads, with contributions of 39% and 41.27%, respectively, followed by electrode diameter (17% and 36.42%). In comparison, the gas flow rate had the least impact (45% and 22.31%). However, ANOVA results showed that none of the factors exhibited statistical significance (P > 0.05). The findings contribute to the field of welding engineering by providing optimized TIG welding parameters for ST37-SUS 304 joints, enhancing their reliability in various industrial applications such as automotive manufacturing, oil and gas, and power generation, where durable and corrosion-resistant welds are crucial.

Abstract

This study examined the thermohydraulic efficiency of a novel Solar Heat Exchanger (SHX) designed for cooling solar panels. The SHX was specifically created for 20 Wp solar panels measuring 450 × 350 mm. The cooling medium was a hybrid nanofluid (HNF) consisting of Al₂O₃ and SiO₂ nanoparticles (0.5–1%) suspended in a base fluid of ethylene glycol and water (EG/W) at a 10:90 ratio. Experiments were performed using flow rates ranging from 1 to 3 LPM. The HNF coolant demonstrated enhanced performance in the solar heat exchanger, with a maximum heat transfer rate increase of 56.07% compared with that of the base fluid. This improvement in the heat-transfer rate was associated with an increase in the heat-transfer coefficient, which was influenced by the flow rate and volume fraction of the HNF. The effectiveness of the HNF surpassed that of the base fluids by approximately 117%. The results indicated that higher flow rates and volume fractions improved cooling performance. The enhanced cooling efficiency and innovative SHX design make this study particularly relevant to the development of solar panel cooling systems, particularly those employing hybrid nanofluid coolants.

Abstract

The fossil fuel crisis in Indonesia, which contributes 85% of the national energy mix, has driven the need to utilize renewable energy sources, one of which is exhaust wind as industrial waste energy that has high speed (5-7 m/s) and good flow continuity. This study developed a vertical Savonius turbine with variations in exhaust-turbine distance (20, 30, 40 cm) and measured wind speed (5.3, 6, 6.4 m/s) to optimize the utilization of this energy. The results showed that the 20 cm configuration produced the best performance with a maximum power of 5.98 watts at a speed of 6.4 m/s and a Coefficient Performance (CP) of 0.16, which is 31% more efficient than a distance of 40 cm, proving the potential of exhaust wind as a renewable energy solution that is applicable in industry with a payback period of less than 3 years and the potential for reducing the load on the electricity network by up to 15%.

Abstract

Mechanical seals in industrial pumps play a critical role in preventing heat transfer fluid leakage, especially under high-temperature operating conditions. A key component of this system is the seal head, which functions as a compression mechanism through a spring to maintain contact between sealing surfaces. However, the spring's performance can deteriorate due to the accumulation of deposits resulting from prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures, operating pressure, and fluid degradation—ultimately leading to seal failure and fluid leakage. This study aims to investigate the thermal stability of the reservoir fluid Therminol 66 (TM-66) and its impact on seal performance under long-term thermal exposure. The methodology includes direct observation of failed seals, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at temperatures of 75, 150, 250, and 350 °C for durations of 3, 6, and 12 hours, and chemical characterization using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Additionally, thermal degradation behavior was assessed through activation energy estimation based on weight loss data obtained from TGA. FTIR results revealed that phenylcyclohexane is the dominant compound in TM-66, with a relative intensity of 0.803119. The thermogravimetric data demonstrated that higher temperatures and longer exposure times significantly accelerated fluid evaporation and mass loss. The activation energy analysis confirmed that thermal degradation is more likely to occur under extended high-temperature conditions. These findings highlight the importance of maintaining reservoir fluid temperature below 75°C to minimize deposit buildup in the seal chamber and ensure the long-term reliability and efficiency of the mechanical seal system.
