Abstract

This research is motivated by the need for the efficiency of the biomass solid fuel drying process in existing dryer installations. This study aims to optimize the insulation on the primary and secondary sides of the spiral heat exchanger and validate the electrical power on the heater register and the heat flow measured by the system. The approach used was the application of a mixture of 25 ml ISO PUR K 760 and 100 ml ISO-PUR K760 Härter (ISO-ELEKTRA Elektrochemische Fabrik GmbH) and the comparison of thermal and electrical power results calculated using temperature difference data between the inlet and outlet of the heater register without readings in a PC regulator. Experiments were conducted with constant parameters, i.e. target temperature 50°C, fan power level 7, and compressor electricity consumption 541 W. This study proves that after sealing the spiral heat exchanger, there is an increase in energy consumption efficiency. In addition, the approach based on temperature difference in calculating heat power can improve the accuracy in observing energy in the biomass drying system.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the production of charcoal from acacia wood (Acacia spp.) as a sustainable energy alternative, considering the depletion of fossil fuel reserves and the abundance of acacia biomass in Indonesia. The carbonization process was conducted through slow pyrolysis for 5 hours using a 12-kg gas cylinder reactor with used oil as fuel, and 1.8 kg of acacia wood pieces (5 cm in diameter, 5 cm in length) as raw material. The results showed a charcoal yield of 38.89% (0.7 kg), which is higher than the conventional range of 25–35%. Proximate analysis, based on estimates and supporting literature, indicated a moisture content of approximately 3%, volatile matter of 18%, ash content of 4%, and fixed carbon of 75%, meeting the SNI 01-1683-1989 standard for high-quality charcoal. Stable temperature distribution during the process ensured optimal decomposition of hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin, producing charcoal with high calorific value and low emissions. These findings confirm the potential of acacia wood as an environmentally friendly charcoal feedstock, with recommendations for further optimization of temperature in the range of 400–600 °C to enhance production efficiency and reduce reliance on unsustainable forest resources.

Abstract

A concise evaluation of Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) turbulence modeling for two-dimensional, incompressible, steady backward-facing step (BFS) flow at Re = 1000–3000 was conducted using OpenFOAM’s SimpleFoam solver with the standard k–ε model. A tri-level mesh enhancement (coarse, medium and fine) was implemented, and ambiguity was measured utilizing the Convergence Ratio (CR) and Grid Convergence Index (GCI). The fine grid (CR = 0.54; GCI = 0.0059%) was the only configuration exhibiting monotonic convergence, ensuring valid GCI estimation. Results showed reattachment length increasing from 0.11 m to 0.12 m, with stronger vortical structures and steeper shear gradients at higher Re. This study uniquely integrates RANS model validation with grid-uncertainty quantification, providing guidance for mesh optimization and reliable turbulence modeling in BFS simulations.

Abstract

Ship propulsion relies significantly on the efficiency of its components, with the shaft propeller playing a pivotal role in navigating vessels through water. Traditionally constructed from steel, this study explores an unconventional approach by employing an Aluminum Alloy base material, specifically the 6063 alloy, for the propeller shaft model. The material's mechanical properties become a crucial focus, prompting a detailed investigation into the impact of silicon and magnesium elements through a meticulous heat treatment process. The experimental procedure involves heating the Al6063 alloy to 790C, transitioning to a complete liquid state, and subsequently incorporating silicon and magnesium at specific temperatures. The stirring process, executed with a mechanical stirrer, sets the stage for the alloy's casting into a mold under pressure. Post-casting, the propeller shaft undergoes a comprehensive heat treatment regimen, including solution treatment, quenching, and artificial aging. The study's findings showcase a remarkable reduction in porosity with increasing silicon elements, reaching its lowest point at 4% wt Silicon. Tensile tests demonstrate a direct correlation between silicon addition and increased stress values, with the highest stress observed at 4% wt Silicon. Concurrently, hardness values ascend proportionally with silicon inclusion, peaking at 4% wt Silicon. The thorough analysis presented here highlights the effectiveness of silicon elements in enhancing the mechanical characteristics of the shaft propeller made of aluminum alloy, which bodes well for future developments in ship propulsion technology.

Abstract

This study examines the bidirectional relationship between economic growth and human development in Indonesia’s Papua Region, a context characterized by persistent welfare disparities despite the implementation of Special Autonomy. Utilizing a balanced panel dataset covering Papua and West Papua provinces, the research applies a dual fixed-effects panel regression model estimated via Feasible Generalized Least Squares with Panel-Corrected Standard Errors to probe the nuanced feedback connections between Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) per capita and the Human Development Index (HDI). The investigation confirms a vigorous, reciprocal, and mutually augmenting association between economic advancement and human progression, where increases in per capita GRDP significantly predict improvements in HDI, and advancements in HDI in turn drive substantial elevations in regional economic output. Beyond the core economic and human development variables, electricity consumption per capita emerges as a consistent, positive catalyst in both models, functioning as a "keystone catalyst" that simultaneously supports standard of living improvements and economic productivity. Conversely, population growth is identified as exerting a drag on per capita income, highlighting a "denominator effect," where rapid demographic expansion dilutes economic gains even as it expands the potential human capital base. The findings substantiate the existence of a virtuous cycle of development in Papua but underscore that achieving inclusive welfare outcomes requires integrated policy interventions that synchronize economic productivity, human capability enhancement, and energy infrastructure expansion.

Abstract

This study aims to determine whether the islanding-based defense scheme at the Orya hydropower plant can effectively maintain the stability of the Jayapura radial power system during major disturbances. The system was modeled and tested in DIgSILENT PowerFactory under several outage scenarios, with a focus on the separation of the Orya–Sentani–Skyline corridor. The simulation indicates that maintaining post-disturbance operation within the nominal frequency of around 50 Hz and voltage variation of ±5% requires shedding 19.89 MW of load from selected feeders. After the scheme is activated, the islanded Orya subsystem settles at approximately 50.15 Hz, while the remaining grid stabilizes near 50.0 Hz—both within regulatory limits. These findings suggest that a combined load-shedding and islanding strategy can reduce the risk of cascading failures in Jayapura and may offer a practical template for other radial systems with limited redundancy.

Abstract

Electricity is crucial for supporting development, the economy, and human well-being, thus leading to an increasing demand for electrical energy. Therefore, power plants are planned and constructed to be as economically viable as possible. In line with the principles of affordability, security of supply, and acceptability, to ensure long-term capacity demand and reliability. The reliability of the power plant is measured using the Load of Loss Probability (LOLP) index, which assesses the probability of components functioning satisfactorily to meet demand. The objective of this research is to analyze the reliability of PLTM Orya-Genyem based on the Load of Loss Probability (LOLP) index. The research methodology is qualitative, commencing with the collection of secondary data, followed by LOLP calculations to obtain reliability information. LOLP index for PLTM Orya-GGenyem is 0,4204%, equivalent to 1,5346 days per year, exceeding the PLN standard of 1 day per year. This indicates a lack of reliability in the power plant. Research findings reveal that daily power demand increases by 0,054 MW for every 1% increase in time. Assessment indicates that peak load surge factor is not the cause of the high LOLP value in PLTM Orya-Genyem. Instead, outages are the cause. The assessment shows that there were 72 disturbances of maintenance outages for PLOG-TA-01 and 145 disturbances of system adjustment outages for PLOG-TA-02. Other outages that happen include low water elevation, water storage duration, floods (accumulated debris), transmission work, blackouts, network disturbances, forced outages, planned outages, sedimentation dredging, water drainage, water filling, performance testing, and maintenance during plant operation.

Abstract

The type of drying device known as a hybrid dryer is a tool that harnesses solar energy and the heat generated by a biomass fuel-powered heat exchanger. This study was conducted to assess the performance of the hybrid dryer by analyzing the parameters of the device itself and the dried material. The research was carried out experimentally using a solar collector and a biomass furnace (as a heat exchanger) to heat the air. The solar collector used consists of 0.35 mm thick, black-painted zinc, coated with 5 mm thick glass, and installed at a 20-degree angle. The heat exchanger pipe used has a diameter of 1.25 inches and is made of galvanized pipe. The tested sample is corn seeds with an initial moisture content of about 24.6%. The experimental results show that in the drying process using a solar dryer, the initial moisture content of 24.8% was successfully reduced to 14% at 5.50 h (rack 1), 6.50 h (rack 2) and 7.00 h (rack 3) with a thermal efficiency of 24.25%. Meanwhile, in the hybrid drying process, the required time is approximately 5.00 h (rack 1), 5.50 h (rack 2) and 6.00 h (rack 3), with a efficiency of the drying equipment used is 21.048±5.690% (hybrid) and 22.706±6.437% (solar).

Abstract

Barapen, a cooking tradition in various indigenous Papuan communities. To date, various social science studies have been conducted to examine social values, business economics, and political economy. While research in the aspects of applied science has yet to be conducted to study the phenomenon of heat transfer by natural convection from hot stones to food in cooking packs, this research was conducted. The purpose of this research is to study the phenomenon of heat transfer by natural convection from hot stones to food in cooking packs. In this study, a square-shaped artificial pool (260 cm x 210 cm x 50 cm) with white batah stone walls was used to cook food in a barapen. On the four walls, a type K thermocouple is inserted to measure the temperature at 3 layers, which will be the object of research. The ingredients are vegetables, sweet potatoes, and chicken meat that has been cut and stoned. As a discussion, the temperature gradient between layers occurs due to the difference in the amount of volumetric heat against time in each layer. The difference in the amount of heat in each layer is due to the difference in the density of the hot vapor trapped in each layer. Thus, it can be said that the cooking of food in Barapen occurs due to natural heat convection.
