Abstract

The study utilizes the Single Particle Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method with a Cowper-Symonds Strain Rate Material Model to understand the response of SKD11 tool steel to erosion under varying impact angles and velocities. In this study, SiO₂ particles measuring 0.7 mm in diameter were selected as the erodent, while the target material, SKD11, was sized at 1x1x0,5 mm. The impact angle was varied at 30, 60, and 90 degrees, and the impact velocity was set at 25 and 50 m/s. The simulation results show that SKD11 performs best at lower impact angles. It was observed that as the impact angle increases, the erosion also increases significantly, particularly at 60 degrees. Different impact angles also resulted in different erosion mechanisms on the material's surface. The impact velocity further contributed to an increase in erosion, with material failure and material reduction occurring at 50 m/s.

Abstract

Jet flow is a crucial fluid dynamic phenomenon that has been extensively studied. It is essential for various industrial applications, including surface cleaning, flow control, and cooling electronic components.  Offset jet is an innovation in jet flow configuration that offers advantages in flow pattern control by expanding the impingement area and regulating surface pressure distribution. This study employed a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach to investigate the influence of variations in the offset jet ratio on the aerodynamic characteristics of the flow, specifically the impingement zone area, pressure coefficient distribution, and skin friction coefficient. The standard k-ε turbulence model, utilizing a structured mesh and a Reynolds number of 10,000, was employed in this research. The number of mesh elements used was a fine mesh of 200,000 with an error percentage of 0.09436%. The results of the study show that an offset ratio of 3 produces the highest cf value of 0.0047 and a stable Cp distribution of 0.218, while also providing the best impingement zone area. These findings indicate that OR 3 is the most optimal configuration in terms of aerodynamics for precision system applications, with a focus on flow pattern control and wide impingement zone coverage.

Abstract

Piping systems provide effective fluid distribution and are crucial to industrial operations. Despite their effectiveness, flow control devices like orifice plates can result in significant pressure drop that can lower system efficiency and wear out the system’s mechanical components. This study aims to optimize orifice plate design by examining the effect of plate thickness on flow characteristics using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Simulations were conducted on orifice plates with thicknesses ranging from 1.5T to 3.0T under Reynolds numbers from 10⁴ to 10⁶. Results show that increasing the thickness reduces pressure loss, with the 3T configuration achieving a 1.35% reduction compared to the baseline. Improvements are linked to a higher discharge coefficient (Cd), shorter flow reattachment distance (Xr), smaller recirculation zones, and reduced velocity through the orifice throat. These findings suggest that geometric modifications can enhance flow performance and reduce the risk of mechanical damage in piping systems.

Abstract

Despite the favorable mechanical properties of Anadara Granosa Shell (AGS), particularly hardness, its influence on the wear resistance of Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) remains insufficiently explored. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the potential of AGS waste as an eco-friendly reinforcement for Al6061 alloy. Composites were fabricated with 0 wt%, 5 wt%, 10 wt%, and 15 wt% AGS addition. Wear behavior of each specimen was evaluated using sandblast with SiO2 as the erodent particles. The investigation also involved the microstructure and wear mechanism observation using optical microscope and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). In addition, the hardness of each material measurement using Vickers hardness test was included to obtain a comprehensive insight. The results shows that the AGS reinforcement was evenly distributed within the matrix, though a minor presence of voids was observed. The hardness of specimens exhibited a consistent increase proportional to the AGS content. Interestingly, the erosion rate showed no significant difference between the 0 wt% and 5 wt% AGS additions, but drastically increased with 10 wt% and 15 wt% reinforcement. This suggests that hardness is not the primary factor governing the erosion behavior in these composites. Analysis of the worn surfaces revealed a prevalent wear mechanism: reinforcement particle peel-out, which became more severe at 10 wt% and 15 wt% AGS concentrations. Conversely, the unreinforced (0 wt%) Al 6061 alloy displayed ripple formation, indicating a plastic deformation mechanism typical of a ductile material. Therefore, this study highlights the critical importance of considering the wear mechanism, specifically the susceptibility to particle pull-out, when evaluating the erosive wear behavior of Al6061 MMCs reinforced with Anadara Granosa Shell waste.

Abstract

Pengelolaan energi termal yang esensial sangat penting bagi performa optimal, keamanan, dan umur pakai baterai lithium-ion (Li-ion), yang menghasilkan panas cukup besar selama operasi. Suhu berlebih dapat menyebabkan degradasi kapasitas dan thermal runaway. Studi ini secara numerik menyelidiki kinerja termal dari sistem pendingin cair yang menggunakan mini-channel cold plate untuk sebuah modul yang terdiri dari delapan baterai Li-ion tipe 18650. Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah mengevaluasi pengaruh variasi laju alir massa pendingin (air) terhadap temperatur maksimum baterai (TMAX) dan keseragaman temperatur (ΔT). Model computational fluid dynamics (CFD) yang telah divalidasi dengan data eksperimen digunakan dalam analisis ini. Tiga variasi laju alir massa disimulasikan, yaitu 0,0005 kg/s, 0,0015 kg/s, dan 0,0025 kg/s. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa sistem yang diusulkan memiliki efisiensi tinggi, mampu menjaga TMAX baterai di bawah 26,5 °C pada semua konfigurasi, dengan penurunan lebih dari 49% dibandingkan kondisi tanpa pendinginan, di mana suhu mencapai 52 °C. Laju alir massa tertinggi (0,0025 kg/s) memberikan kinerja terbaik, dengan TMAX terendah sebesar 25,83 °C serta rata-rata penurunan temperatur tertinggi sebesar 50,5%. Selain itu, konfigurasi ini juga memberikan keseragaman termal yang lebih baik dan berhasil menjaga perbedaan temperatur internal setiap sel tetap di bawah ambang kritis 5 °C. Temperatur maksimum yang dicapai dengan sistem pendingin cair ini menunjukkan bahwa sistem tidak hanya mampu mencegah thermal runaway tetapi juga berkontribusi dalam memperpanjang siklus hidup dan daya tahan baterai. Sistem pendingin ini membantu meminimalkan mekanisme degradasi termal yang umumnya mempercepat penuaan baterai.

Abstract

The topic of airfoil modification and its impact on aerodynamic performance is a highly debated issue in aerospace engineering circles. This study examines the effect of the NACA 4415 bio-inspired nose airfoil on its aerodynamic performance by adding spinner dolphin and roughtoothed dolphin geometries to the leading edge using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method at a Reynolds number of Re = 106. Simulations were conducted to analyze changes in the lift coefficient (Cl), drag coefficient (Cd), and moment coefficient (Cm), which serve as indicators of aerodynamic performance and stability. The results show that the baseline NACA 4415 airfoil produces the highest lift and the lowest drag overall, making it suitable for applications requiring maximum lift and minimum drag. Spinner dolphins has a smaller percentage increase in Cd, at 41.933%, compared to the baseline. In contrast, roughtoothed dolphins with an average percentage of 56.004% compared to the baseline exhibit a higher percentage increase in Cd. Conversely, in the Cl data, the percentage decreased in   dolphins has a larger average, namely -14.607%, compared to the baseline, whereas the spinner dolphin type only has an average of -8.713%. In the Cm data, the Roughtoothed Dolphin and Spinner Dolphin have higher and more stable Cm than NACA 4415. This study confirms that bio-inspired modifications can significantly impact aerodynamic performance, depending on operating conditions.
