Abstract

This research modifies the leading-edge structure of NACA 0015 and NACA 4415 to resemble the nose of a beluga whale. The focus of this modification is to improve the airfoil's aerodynamic performance and investigate the changing fluid flow patterns. Numerical equation used is RANS combined with the k-epsilon turbulence model. Mesh independence test shows that mesh with 200 elements is the best mesh. Validation results reveal that CFD data can follow the trend of experimental data, especially on the AoA before the stall. There was a significant increase in Cl from NACA 0015 and NACA 4415 at AoA>9°. On the other hand, the modification also had a positive effect by lowering the Cd value. The modification also provides an advantage by increasing the maximum Cl/Cd value. Furthermore, the separation point data shows that the modification can delay the separation of the fluid flow in the airfoil. Modifications can cause an increase in pressure on the lower side and a decrease in pressure on the upper side. Through velocity contours and streamlines, the modifications can reduce the recirculation area. Overall, modifying the leading edge has positive impacts on the NACA 0015 and NACA 4415 airfoils.

Abstract

Airfoil is a fundamental geometry in designing various aerodynamic objects. Passive flow control installation is essential in determining the airfoil's aerodynamic performance. The influence of variations in slat size as a passive flow control instrument is analyzed using the CFD method with a Reynold number of Re= 10^6. NACA 6641 airfoil was used as the slat geometry with size variations of 10%c and 16%c. Based on the computational results, variations in slat size have a substantial influence on the aerodynamic efficiency of the airfoil. Variations in slat size additional Cl ability to reach 20.6043% and 13.1917%, respectively. In addition, a 16%c slat can delay a stall until it reaches AoA >= 19°. Meanwhile, a 10%c slat can delay a stall until it reaches AoA >= 17°. However, variations in slat size also affect the resulting drag force. Slat measuring 16%c can addition Cd up to 50.9252%. Meanwhile, 10% c slat additional Cd up to 21.8389%. Based on the resulting lift-to-drag ratio curve, a 10%c slat has the lowest lift-to-drag ratio compared to a 16%c slat. However, a 10%c slat has the highest level of stability when compared to a 16%c slat installation and without a slat installation.

Abstract

This study analyzes co-flow as active flow control in the object of the airfoil. NACA 0015 is the airfoil used in this study. The airfoil was then modified to add co-flow jet features. Co-flow jet was placed on the upper chamber to analyze its effect on airfoil performance. Further, the Co-flow jet was studied by varying the injected mass flow rate () in the injection slot. The variation of is 0.15, 0.20, and 0.25 kg/s. The study used CFD with the governing equation RANS. Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes combined with turbulence model to solve all equations. Two equations for the turbulence model are used in this study. Specifically, this study discusses the aerodynamics of the airfoil, i.e., lift force, drag force, and fluid flow visualization, such as pressure contour and velocity contour. Co-flow jets can improve the aerodynamics of airfoils. The bigger the injected, the higher the lift coefficient increases. On the other hand, the drag force will be reduced as the number of injected fluid flow increases. Because of that, the airfoil efficiency will be better if using a co-flow jet. However, the Cl/Cdcurve peak shifts to smaller as the injection fluid flow are bigger. The fluid flow visualization by velocity contour on AoA=20° revealed that the co-flow jet could overcome separation.

Abstract

This study uses a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach. The main object in this study is NACA 4415 with slat variations. The airfoil used as the slat is Eppler 421. Reynolds number in this study is 3Í106. This study uses an unstructured mesh with a triangular cell shape with 137824 elements. The use of slats can improve the aerodynamic performance of NACA 4415. NACA 4415 without slat stalled at AoA=16º. Stall on airfoils with a single slat and double slat occurred at AoA=20º. Slat can increase Cl in NACA 4415; however, the difference in Cl increase is not much different when using a single slat or double slat. An airfoil with a single slat, on average, can increase Cl by 20.9129%. The average increase in Cl for an airfoil with a double slat is 25.6878%. Single slat and double slat increase Cd. A single slat increased Cd with an average increase of 26.1109%, and the average increase in Cd for airfoils with double slat was 54.6152%. Single slat can produce a better Cl to Cd ratio than double slat, but the optimum AoA of double slat is 1º higher than single slat. Visualization of fluid flow at AoA=16° shows the fluid flow separation in the airfoil without a slat. The fluid flow separation can be handled well when NACA 4415 is given a single slat or double slat.

Abstract

Erosive wear often occurs on heavy machinery operating under extreme conditions. This research utilizes the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method with the Cowper-Symonds strain rate model to analyze the erosion behavior of high-Cr cast iron (HCCI) under different impact angles and compare it to other materials of different characteristics, such as 6061-T6 Aluminium, GH4720Li Superalloy, and Stainless Steel 304 Annealed. A single particle erosion model was made for this study. The erodent particle size used is 0.7 mm in diameter, with the target material measuring 1 x 1 x 0.5 mm. The particle velocity is kept constant at 25 m/s. Based on the simulation results, it can be known that HCCI performs the best at every impact angle. Moreover, from the model's cross-section, it's evident that the material's stress concentration aligns with the direction of movement of the erodent particle. Therefore, it can be concluded that these factors, along with others such as contact time, plastic strain, and surface deformation lead to variations in surface mechanics.

Abstract

Renewable energy transition is a strategic step in overcoming environmental damage due to fossil fuel exploitation. Ocean wave energy comes with its popularity, considering its advantages in supplying energy continuously and having high energy density. Therefore, technology that can extract other wave energy effectively and efficiently is needed. This study focuses on identification flap geometry to improve the oscillating wave surge converter (OWSC) hydrodynamic performance. Through a numerical approach, the Boundary Element Method (BEM) is applied in three-dimensional flap modeling to accommodate testing the characteristics and performance of the OWSC device. This study identified five different samples: geometry 1, geometry 2, geometry 3, geometry 4, and geometry 5. The results show that the second geometry variation is the most optimal flap dimension parameter. The best proportion is found in the dimensional characteristics parallel to the elevation of the ocean waves to maximize the output torque. Overall, the second geometry performs satisfactorily with an average maximum power achievement of 41.52 Watts at a wave period of T = 1.5s. In addition, the OWSC device with this variation can work at an expansive wave period interval with a maximum CWR efficiency achievement of up to 52.14%.

Abstract

The latest energy demand increasingly drives innovation in ocean wave energy technology, including the Oscillating Wave Surge Converter (OWSC). This consider analyzes the impact of water profundity varieties on the execution of OWSCs put on the seabed. The study was conducted numerically using the Boundary Element Method by testing four variations of air depth at wave periods between 1.2 and 2.8 seconds and wave amplitudes of 0.1 meters. The results show that the optimal depth, equivalent to the flap height (D2), produces the highest maximum displacement due to the balance between hydrostatic pressure and wave energy the flap receives. Conversely, depths that are too shallow (D1) or too deep (D4) result in smaller displacements due to the instability of the movement in shallow air and the attenuation of wave energy in deep air. In addition, more extended wave periods tend to decrease the changing cycle frequency but increase the symmetry of the flap movement at a certain depth.

Abstract

The orifice plate is a device that disrupts the flow in the pipe. The disturbed flow results in the formation of flow structures. The flow structure formed can be utilized for several applications such as multi-fluid mixing and microbubble generator. Using orifice plates to utilize the flow structure results in more significant pressure loss. This study aims to identify the characteristics of the flow structure generated by single and double orifice plates with 1D and 2D spacing at various Reynolds numbers, namely Re = 1×104, 5×104, 1×105, and 5×105, as a basis for application in these various applications. The results show that single and double orifice plates can produce flow structure phenomena such as recirculation and vortex regions. The recirculation area is formed smaller in the double orifice plate due to the flow that is separated faster to converge back to the pipe wall but broader so that the flow of the orifice plate is narrower. Increasing the applied Reynold's number causes the separated flow to reconnect to the pipe wall faster, resulting in a smaller recirculation area. Double orifice plates are more suitable for applications that require a certain degree of mixing or pressure distribution, but with a consequent more significant pressure loss. Meanwhile, single plates can be used for simple needs with little pressure loss.

Abstract

The culinary industry, especially banana chip processing, dramatically supports the economy of micro and small enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia. However, the traditional process is time-consuming, especially at the cutting stage. The banana-slicing machine is designed to speed up this process with consistent and efficient cuts. This study analyzes the performance of the banana-slicing machine frame by testing variations in loading (20 N to 200 N) and frame materials, namely Low Alloy Steel, Structural Steel, Stainless Steel, Aluminum Alloy, and Cast Iron, to determine the optimal material. The results showed that Low Alloy Steel is the best material because it has the lowest total deformation, equivalent stress, and strain energy, reflecting high stiffness and load efficiency. With an elastic modulus of 212.5 GPa and an economical price ($1.3–1.5/kg), this material offers the best balance in terms of technical and economics. Structural steel also performed well but was slightly lower than low alloy steel. In contrast, Aluminum Alloy has the highest deformation and strain energy, making it less suitable for this application. Overall, Low Alloy Steel is an ideal choice to improve the efficiency and reliability of the banana-slicing machine.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of impact velocity on the erosion behavior of GH4720Li superalloy with and without Cr₃C₂–NiCr coating using Finite Element Analysis. Silica particles (0.7 mm) were modeled at velocities of 25–125 m/s under normal impact. Results show that increasing velocity raises the maximum Von Mises stress before reaching a dynamic equilibrium. Coated specimens exhibited nearly twice the stress values of uncoated ones, indicating better load distribution and initial damage resistance. At low velocities (25–50 m/s), the coating reduced plastic deformation by absorbing impact energy. However, at higher velocities (≥75 m/s), the coating transferred more energy to the substrate, causing greater plastic strain than in uncoated material. These findings demonstrate that cermet coatings improve erosion resistance at low-to-moderate velocities but have limited performance under high-velocity impacts
