Abstract

This community service activity aims to introduce biomass stoves to communities in need, particularly those with abundant biomass waste. The biomass stove's performance has already been evaluated through prior research conducted on campus. This community service initiative will be carried out with the Berkat Rama farmer group in Bibiosi Village, a major corn production area near Cenderawasih University in Arso District, Keerom Regency. Based on preliminary site assessments, local farmers reported significant quantities of agricultural waste, specifically corn cobs, left after harvest. This waste has not been optimally utilized by farmers and is typically disposed of by burning. Motivated by this, our community service team from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Cenderawasih University aims to introduce corn cob-fueled biomass stoves to the local community. The Community Service Program (PKM) was met with strong enthusiasm from participants, who actively engaged in the socialization session through to its conclusion. The community expressed a desire for more frequent activities of this kind to broaden their knowledge and skills, especially regarding appropriate technology applications. The final outcome of this community service is an increase in both knowledge and skills among members of the Berkat Rama farmer group, specifically in the fabrication and operation of the introduced biomass stoves. They also received training in operational safety for biomass stoves. The acquired knowledge and skills are expected to be applied and shared with other community members and farmers in the area.

Abstract

The operational efficiency of mid-capacity (140 MW) Combined Cycle Gas and Steam Power Plants (CCGT) remains underexplored concerning the DIN-VDI 4661 standard, which defines key quality metrics for energy systems. Addressing this gap is crucial for establishing standardized benchmarks to optimize performance and reduce energy losses. Existing studies mainly focus on Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) units outside the 100–180 MW range and often do not explicitly follow DIN-VDI 4661, limiting efficiency comparisons and hindering targeted optimizations. This study simulates a 140 MW CCGT using Ebsilon® Professional software, incorporating DIN-VDI 4661 guidelines to assess eight quality indicators, including thermal efficiency, fuel utilization, and power-to-heat ratio. The model integrates gas and steam turbines, heat recovery, and auxiliary components, with input parameters validated against industry data. Energy balance analysis and sensitivity tests identified loss points. Results show a gas turbine thermal efficiency of 31.39%, steam turbine efficiency of 39.59%, and total system efficiency of 48.42%. However, significant energy losses (52% of input energy) were observed, mainly in gas turbines (87,000 kW) and steam turbines (56,000 kW). These findings highlight the need for design optimizations, such as improving heat recovery and turbine efficiency, to meet DIN-VDI 4661 benchmarks.

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

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

Papua province has nine small islands that are inhabited, but there is no access to electricity on these islands. The solution is the use of sea wind as a source of energy for a small power plant. This study aims to determine the potential of sea wind as an alternative source of electrical energy on the north coast of Papua Province. Data Measurement is carried out using an HP-866B anomometer on a hill near the coast to maximize the sea wind. There are two methods used in this research: the minimum-maximum value to determine the wind speed range and linear regression to determine the distribution pattern of the wind. The range of the sea wind is 0.2–6.18 m/s. If the minimum speed is limited to 1.6 m/s, then the range of kinetic energy is 5.59–322.22 Joules/s, mechanical power is 5.59–322.22 Watts, and actual power is 0.57–33.13 Watts. Meanwhile, the pattern shows that the sea wind from the north coast of Papua Province blows with two trends: constant and increasing, specifically in the afternoon and evening. Based on that, the development of a wind power plant on the north coast of Papua Province can be carried out using a multi-turbine system to increase the actual power that can be obtained.

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.
