Abstract

A germinator equipped with automatic environmental control system has been developed to produce the high quality of germinated brown rice. The germinator consists of germination chamber, temperature and relative humidity sensors, relays, actuator, and display panel so the germination process can be set up and controlled. The performance test were carried out covering the technical reliability of the system and the capability of germinator to produce germinated brown rice. The test results show that the brown rice germinator with an automatic environmental control system worked very well. The use of water misters and PTC air heaters is able to maintain humidity and air temperature inside germinator. The brown rice germinator can produce germinated brown rice with germination rate more than 80%. The result shows that the brown rice germinator can be used to produce germinated brown rice both for private and commercial use. Keywords: Brown rice, Germination, Humidity, Temperature.

Abstract

The process of physically prototyping a power generation system is time consuming and costly. Adopting the concept of Digital Twin Technology offers a solution to improve the efficiency in prototyping processes. This study aims to develop a web-based application called ThePOCI for thermal analysis of steam power plant systems working with ideal Rankine cycle, and to evaluate the accuracy of the developed application. The ThePOCI thermal system application consisted of two main modules: Steam Power Plant Design and Combustion Analysis. Validation of the Combustion Analysis module revealed the largest calculation errors in the thermal-based model for variables including flue gas temperature (13.08%), temperature of boiler exit working fluid (16.93%), and turbine power (10.49%), yet all fall within the low error range. Validation of the Steam Power Plant Design module produced deviations of ideal and actual operating conditions of 2.22% and 0.88%, respectively, categorized as highly accurate. The validation results confirm that ThePOCI can accurately simulate the physical system of a steam power plant based on the ideal Rankine cycle. System emission calculations indicate potential for further research on the use of Calliandra biomass in Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC)-based steam power plants, identified as the fuel producing the lowest emissions at 3,742.20 kgCO2e/kW.
