Abstract

This research aims to optimize the performance of the voltage system at the Nagan Raya Steam Power Plant (PLTU) by installing capacitor banks. Capacitor banks are integrated into the system to increase voltage stability, reduce power losses, and increase energy efficiency in PLTUs. The research method involves analyzing the existing voltage system, designing the capacitor bank installation, and evaluating the system performance after installation. It is hoped that the results of this research can make a positive contribution in improving the performance of PLTU Nagan Raya and overall energy efficiency.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Hybrid natural-natural fibre reinforced polymer composites become attractive alternative to seek the friendly-environmentally materials. Study on the durability level of the hybrid composites have the importance reason due to the role in application as structural function. This study focuses on examining the fatigue strength of polypropylene polymer composites reinforced with hybrid sugar palm-kenaf fibres. The hybrid composite materials were prepared by mixing the fibres and matrix with several compositions. There are five composition types of specimens that evaluated, such as 70:10:10, 70:15:15, 70:20:10, 80:10:10 and 90:5:5. The hybrid composites were composed by PP, sugar palm fibre and kenaf fibre. Furtheremore the tensile test were conducted to find the value of ultimate tensile strength for every specimens of hybrid composites. The fatigue test also were conducted with four level of stress i.e. 80%, 70%, 60% and 50%. The results show that in the lower level of stress, the hybrid composites with higher content of sugar palm fibre posses the better performance of fatigue life compare to the others

Abstract

The utilization of wind energy as one of the renewable energy sources in Indonesia is still limited. This is due to Indonesia's large wind potential, but it is at low speeds. One modification of wind turbines to overcome this problem is by using inverse taper and taper blades. Inverse taper blades have a chord distribution that increases from root to tip while taper blades have a chord distribution that decreases from root to tip. This research conducts the design and construction of inverse taper and taper blades on small-scale wind turbines using NACA 6412 airfoil type, then tested in the field and obtained the performance of each blade. The design was carried out using blade element momentum theory to obtain the blade geometry shape and perform performance analysis of each type of blade. Based on the simulation results obtained from QBlade, it shows that the inverse taper blade performance has a maximum Cp of 0.52 while the taper blade has a maximum Cp of 0.41. The power graph from field testing results shows that inverse taper blades provide good power generation at low wind speeds compared to taper blades. The inverse taper blade has a cut-in speed of 1.2 m/s and the best power production occurs at speeds of 1-4 m/s.

Abstract

A common problem that occurs in transformers is failure of the insulating oil. One solution to prevent this disruption is to analyze indications of insulating oil failure. Several previous studies on the analysis of transformer insulating oil failure were based on dissolved gas content tests of transformer oil samples. The research was conducted using several methods in processing dissolved gas test results data, such as the TDCG (Total Dissolved Combustible Gas), Roger's Ratio, and Duval's Triangle methods. In this study, two methods were used for comparison, namely the Breakdown Voltage method and the Fuzzy Logic method. The results obtained show that the condition of the insulating oil using fuzzy logic in the Matlab simulation is in accordance with the condition of the transformer insulating oil based on its breakdown voltage characteristics, namely in a normal state. Meanwhile, gas content that is at a high or very high level has a significant impact on the indication of failure in transformer insulating oil, namely the concentration of TDCG and nitrogen gas content.
