Abstract

This study experimentally investigates the efficiency characteristics of a laboratory-scale Pelton turbine under variable water flow rates and mechanical loading conditions. Five flow rates (0.04 m³/s, 0.035 m³/s, 0.029 m³/s, 0.024 m³/s, and 0.021 m³/s) were tested by measuring rotational speed, torque, shaft power, and turbine efficiency. The results reveal a nonlinear relationship between load and efficiency for all tested flow rates, with maximum efficiency occurring at intermediate loading conditions. The highest efficiency of 52.727% was obtained at a flow rate of 0.04 m³/s and a load of 12 kg. Were associated with reduced efficiency, which is commonly linked to decreased jet momentum. These findings provide experimental insight into Pelton turbine performance under non-design operating conditions at laboratory scale.

Abstract

Limboto Lake in Gorontalo Province has experienced a decline in ecosystem quality due to the massive growth of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes). The presence of water hyacinth reduces lake productivity and disrupts fishing activities. Common control efforts has been mechanical removal of water hyacinth with high cost due to fuel consumption. This study aims to assess the feasibility of utilizing a floating Solar Power Plant (PLTS) as an alternative energy source to power the water hyacinth lifting machine. The methods used in the study include a literature review, field surveys, calculations of engine energy requirements, design of a floating PLTS system, and technical feasibility analysis. The water hyacinth lifting machine requires 12–18 kWh of energy per day, which a floating PLTS system can meet with a capacity of 5 kWp. The findings demonstrate that the proposed floating solar power system is technically feasible for implementation. In addition to supporting the sustainable operation of water hyacinth-lifting machines, this technology also reduces evaporation from lakes and increases the use of renewable energy in Gorontalo.

Abstract

The increasing demand for energy and the depletion of fossil fuel reserves have accelerated the development of renewable energy sources, with biomass emerging as one of the most promising candidates. Corncobs, an abundant agricultural residue with considerable energy content, represent a viable feedstock for gasification processes. This study evaluates the performance of a corncob-fueled updraft gasifier integrated with a photovoltaic (PV) solar power system as an auxiliary energy source for reactor operation. Experimental tests were conducted to assess flame characteristics, syngas composition, thermal efficiency, and overall energy potential. The influence of air flow rate (AFR) on temperature profiles across the drying, pyrolysis, oxidation, and reduction zones was systematically analyzed. The findings show that low AFR enhances heat accumulation but restricts oxygen supply, whereas excessively high AFR produces cooling effects that reduce thermal efficiency. Optimal operating conditions were achieved at intermediate AFR values (11.5–13.4 m/s), yielding stable heat distribution and high-quality syngas dominated by CO, H₂, and CH₄. Under these conditions, the system demonstrated promising thermal efficiency for small-scale applications. The 600 WP. PV system effectively supplied power to operate the blower, pump, and instrumentation, supporting operational autonomy and reducing reliance on external electricity sources. Overall, the integration of corncob gasification and solar energy offers a sustainable, environmentally friendly, and technically feasible hybrid energy solution, while promoting the utilization of agricultural waste and reducing dependence on fossil fuels in rural areas.
