Abstract

This study examines how the blade angle of an elephant grass chopping machine affects the chopping results used for making cattle feed silage. Elephant grass needs to be chopped to a standard size for silage production, with the ideal chop length ranging from 2–5 cm and relatively uniform, so that the fermentation process runs properly and the feed is easier for livestock to consume. The research was conducted using an experimental method with 1 kg of fresh elephant grass for each trial. The chopped output was classified into three size categories: <2 cm, 2–5 cm, and >5 cm, to determine which met the silage standard most effectively. The study tested three blade angles—30°, 45°, and 60°—and three machine rotational speeds (1700 rpm, 2000 rpm, and 2300 rpm) to evaluate their effects on chopping time, cut size distribution, and processing capacity. The results show that the best performance in terms of machine rotational speed at the 30° blade angle occurred at 2300 rpm. The highest percentage of chopped material within the 2–5 cm size range was obtained at a 45° blade angle, reaching approximately 55–58% of the total chopped output, indicating the most optimal conformity with silage size standards.

Abstract

This study analyzes the Structural Strength of micro wind turbine blades made of CFRP and GFRP composites using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method. Aerodynamic loads are obtained from QBlade simulations at a wind speed of 12 m/s and applied as non-uniform pressure on the blades. Composite modeling is performed with ANSYS Composite PrepPost (ACP) using a 4-ply laminated composite configuration with fiber orientations of 0°, 45°, −45°, and 90° and varying ply thicknesses along the blade. Static analysis shows that the CFRP blade produces a Von Mises stress of 15,648 MPa with a maximum displacement of 3.1616 mm, while the GFRP blade produces a stress of 12,786 MPa with a maximum displacement of 6,947 mm. These results indicate that CFRP has better Structural stiffness than GFRP, making it more suitable for micro wind turbine blade applications that require high Structural stability.
