Abstract

The rocker arm functioned as a link between the camshaft and the valve which was responsible for regulating the rise and fall of the valve. Based on how it worked, the roller rocker arm with a conventional rocker arm were the same. However, a significant difference was seen in the roller placed at one end that made direct contact with the camshaft. The use of a conventional rocker arm produced considerable friction, so researchers replaced it with a roller rocker arm. The purpose of this study was to improve the performance of a single cylinder petrol engine using a roller rocker arm that had diameter sizes of 15 mm and 17 mm against the standard. The performance testing method used the variable open throttle to obtain data. Furthermore, the data was presented in graphical form and analyzed using anova. The independent variables were roller rocker arm whose diameter were 15 mm and 17 mm, conventional rocker arm and round 3000, 3500, 4000, 4500, 5000, 5500, 6000, 6500, 7000 rpm. The dependent variables were power, torque and specific fuel consumption. The control variables were engine 100 cc and 92 octane fuel. The largest power result at 6500 rpm was 6.25 Hp using a conventional rocker arm. The largest torque at 3500 rpm was 7.23 Nm using a 15 mm roller rocker arm. The smallest specific fuel consumption was 0.1546 kg/Hpxh at 5000 rpm using a 15 mm roller rocker arm.

Abstract

Vehicle ignition systems, including spark plugs, are a certain way to boost a motorcycle's performance. One kind of spark plug used to ignite the combustion process in a gasoline engine is a multi electrode spark plug, which has two or more ground points built into the electrodes. This study's overarching goal is to identify the optimal combination of multi-ground spark plugs, gasoline octane value fluctuations, and power/torque/specific fuel consumption parameters. Engine performance testing relies on data collected from controlled laboratory tests. In addition, Microsoft Excel is used for data analysis, and the results are shown in graph tables. Spark plug electrode amount in feet and gasolines octane level are the independent variables. Speed the engine from 5500 to 9000. The peak power output of 6.92 Hp was achieved at 7000 rpm in the power test with RON 92 gasoline X-Line spark plugs. At 5500 rpm, the maximum torque of 8.21 Nm was produced by the torque test using RON 98 gasoline X-Line spark plugs. At 6000 rpm, the specific fuel consumption test with RON 90 fuel and standard spark plugs yields a value of 0.0800 kg/Hp.hour.

Abstract

The development of technology in the 4.0 era has led to higher energy consumption. Meanwhile, Indonesia's energy consumption has been increasing every year. This requires the substitution of alternative energy vehicle fuels. One of them is bioethanol. Bioethanol can be obtained from plants, namely molasses. The use of RON enhancers can increase the octane rating so that low quality fuel can be used. By using high octane, the performance and fuel consumption will be optimal. The purpose of this study was to determine the performance of a 4-stroke petrol engine. This research uses an experimental approach where direct experiments are carried out on torque, power and fuel consumption. The data obtained is also presented graphically. In this study, the independent variables used were Ron enhancers with masses of 0ml, 5ml, 10ml, 15ml and molasses bioethanol percentages of 0%, 10%, 15%, 20%. Control variables engine speed 5500 rpm to 9000 rpm. The highest power results were obtained with a mixture of 0% bioethanol and 5ml RON enhancer, 7.90hp at 8000 rpm. The highest torque is achieved with a mixture of 0% bioethanol and 15ml RON enhancer 8.74 Nm at 6000 rpm. For fuel consumption, the 15% bioethanol mixture with the addition of 0ml RON enhancer is the lowest at 0.0804 kg/Hp.hour at 6000 rpm.
