Abstract

The accuracy of mesh use determines the suitability of simulation results with experimental test results, therefore it is necessary to study the type and number of mesh used for flow simulation. This study aims to investigate the type of mesh and the number of cells that are appropriately used in the simulation of centrifugal fans using the Solidworks Flow Simulation module. The research was conducted by comparing the simulation results with the experimental results on centrifugal fans that have been carried out by previous studies. In this research, the type of mesh used is global mesh. The parameter of determining the number of cells is done by varying the mesh level because the mesh level affects the number of cells. In this simulation study, the boundary condition is set to one flow volume of 5 m3/h and a rotation speed of 92.362 rad/s. In this study, the total pressure and efficiency of the centrifugal fan are the things that are seen from the comparison of flow simulation with the experiment. Based on the simulation results that have been carried out, mesh levels 1 to 4 show results that differ significantly from the experimental results. At machine levels 5 to 7, the results are close to the experimental results, but the closest total pressure and efficiency values are at mesh level 5. The results of this study can be a reference for research that simulates centrifugal fans.

Abstract

The learning outcomes achieved by students are influenced by many factors. This study aims to determine the level of support of factors (motivation, interest, family, teacher's role, learning methods and learning facilities) that influence the learning process in achieving student learning outcomes in CNC learning in class XI. The subjects in the study were Class XI students majoring in Mechanical Engineering at SMK Negeri 5 Padang in the 2022/2023 academic year totalling 37 people. Because the number of research subjects (population) is less than 100 people, so all of them are taken as samples or total sampling. Data collection was carried out using observation, questionnaires and documentation. Data analysis techniques using descriptive statistical techniques. From the data analysis, it shows that of each factor studied, the learning facility factor has the lowest level of support for student academic success compared to other factors that have been studied by researchers. Therefore, learning facilities at SMK Negeri 5 Padang in CNC subjects need to be improved again to support the student learning process and achieve better learning achievements for students.

Abstract

Energy efficiency is a crucial aspect of energy saving efforts. Energy efficiency is an important factor in reducing energy consumption and environmental impacts. One of the important steps that can be taken in achieving energy efficiency is to conduct an energy audit. An energy audit is a systematic process to evaluate energy use in a building and identify energy saving opportunities that can be done. RETSCreen Expert is one of the software that can be used for energy audits. This research focuses on analyzing the comparison between manual calculations and calculations using RETScreen Expert software on building energy efficiency. The factors used to analyze energy efficiency are air conditioning systems, room lighting systems, and the use of other electronic devices, over a one-year period. The analysis results show that there are differences in calculations between the use of manual methods and RETScreen Expert. The difference between manual calculation and RETScreen Expert is 15.42%. With this difference, it is assumed that manual calculations and calculations using RETScreen Expert do not have too much difference. The results of the energy audit also show that the air conditioning system (HVAC) is a major contributor to the building's energy consumption.

Abstract

Turbin magnus merupakan turbin yang berfungsi sebagai sistem propulsi tambahan pada kapal dengan tujuan meningkatkan efisiensi energi dan mengurangi emisi gas buang. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis perbandingan performa turbin magnus tipe flettner rotor dan thom rotor terhadap koefisien lift (C?), koefisien drag (Cd), gaya thrust (Fr), serta hambatan total baru kapal (RT New). Metode penelitian menggunakan simulasi berbasis Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) dengan menggunakan software Ansys Fluent 2025 R1 Student Version. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa turbin magnus tipe thom rotor memiliki nilai C? lebih tinggi sebesar 0,3364; 0,3276; 0,3157 pada kecepatan 5 m/s, 10 m/s, dan 15 m/s dibandingkan flettner rotor sebesar 0,2785; 0,2508; 0,2442 pada kecepatan 5 m/s, 10 m/s, dan 15 m/s dengan penurunan nilai lebih stabil pada variasi kecepatan angin. Sedangkan nilai Cd thom rotor sebesar 0,6487; 0,5333; 0,4959 pada kecepatan 5 m/s, 10 m/s, dan 15 m/s juga lebih besar dibandingkan flettner rotor sebesar 0,5705; 0,4537; 0,4229 pada kecepatan 5 m/s, 10 m/s, dan 15 m/s. Perhitungan gaya thrust (Fr) menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada kedua tipe rotor seiring kenaikan kecepatan aliran, dengan kontribusi terbesar pada thom rotor. Hambatan total baru kapal (RT New) menurun secara relatif terhadap kondisi awal, menandakan adanya efisiensi propulsi tambahan. Maka penambahan turbin magnus mampu memberikan gaya dorong tambahan, mengurangi hambatan total, serta meningkatkan efisiensi operasional kapal. Thom rotor menghasilkan gaya angkat yang lebih stabil, sementara flettner rotor lebih efisien dalam menekan hambatan, sehingga pemilihan tipe rotor dapat disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan operasional kapal.

Abstract

The dependence on fossil fuels in Indonesia continues to increase in line with the growing energy consumption, thus necessitating alternative energy sources that are more environmentally friendly and sustainable. Oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) are agro-industrial waste with great potential to be utilized as raw material for briquette production; however, their utilization remains suboptimal. This study aims to analyze the effect of molding temperature and compaction pressure on the density and stability of binderless OPEFB briquettes. The research method employed is experimental, using a quantitative descriptive-analytical approach with non-carbonized briquettes. The treatment variations include molding temperatures (230°C, 250°C, and 280°C) and compaction pressures (1 MPa, 3 MPa, and 5 MPa) applied to two types of materials, namely dried and undried OPEFB. The results indicate that increasing temperature and compaction pressure significantly enhances briquette density. At a temperature range of 250–280°C and a pressure of 5 MPa, the briquettes achieved the highest density (>1.0 g/cm³) with strong shape stability. The thermoplastic lignin content in OPEFB melts at high temperatures, acting as a natural binder. Briquettes with a density ?0.80 g/cm³ exhibited strong physical integrity, while those with a density <0.70 g/cm³ tended to be brittle. It can be concluded that the optimum conditions for producing high-quality binderless OPEFB briquettes are achieved at a temperature range of 250–280°C and a compaction pressure of 5 MPa, resulting in briquettes with excellent density and shape stability suitable as a renewable alternative energy source

Abstract

The energy demand in Indonesia continues to increase, particularly in the transportation sector, which remains highly dependent on fossil fuels such as gasoline. This dependency causes several issues, including the depletion of fossil fuel reserves and the rise of greenhouse gas emissions that negatively impact the environment. One potential solution to address these challenges is the development of bioethanol as a renewable and environmentally friendly alternative fuel. Bioethanol can be produced from starchy materials, one of which is white cassava (Manihot esculenta), known for its high productivity and wide availability in Indonesia. The production process of bioethanol consists of several stages, including liquefaction, fermentation, and distillation, where fermentation temperature plays a crucial role in determining the ethanol yield. Previous studies have shown that variations in fermentation temperature significantly influence the efficiency of bioethanol production. This study aims to characterize bioethanol produced from cassava fermentation at various temperature variations and to evaluate its potential as a fuel for gasoline engines. The results are expected to contribute to the improvement of bioethanol production efficiency and to promote cassava utilization as a renewable energy source in supporting national energy sustainability.

Abstract

Krisis energi dan peningkatan emisi gas rumah kaca akibat penggunaan bahan bakar fosil mendorong pengembangan energi alternatif yang ramah lingkungan. Biodiesel dari minyak jelantah menjadi salah satu solusi berkelanjutan karena ketersediaannya yang melimpah dan sifatnya yang terbarukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kinerja mesin diesel generator Yanmar TF 105 MR-di yang menggunakan campuran biodiesel dari minyak jelantah (B30, B40, B50) dengan optimasi waktu injeksi bahan bakar (16°, 17°, 18°, dan 19° sebelum TMA) pada kecepatan konstan 2000 rpm dan beban 1000–4000 watt. Parameter yang diuji meliputi daya, torsi, konsumsi bahan bakar spesifik (SFC), dan efisiensi termal. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa campuran B30 dengan waktu injeksi 18° sebelum TMA memberikan performa terbaik, dengan efisiensi termal tertinggi dan nilai SFC yang lebih rendah dibandingkan campuran lainnya. Pengaturan waktu injeksi berpengaruh signifikan terhadap karakteristik pembakaran dan kinerja mesin, dimana waktu injeksi yang terlalu awal atau terlambat dapat menurunkan efisiensi dan meningkatkan konsumsi bahan bakar. Penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa optimasi waktu injeksi penting untuk mengkompensasi perbedaan sifat fisikokimia biodiesel, serta membuka peluang pemanfaatan minyak jelantah sebagai bahan bakar alternatif yang ramah lingkungan dan ekonomis.
