Abstract

The orifice plate is a device that disrupts the flow in the pipe. The disturbed flow results in the formation of flow structures. The flow structure formed can be utilized for several applications such as multi-fluid mixing and microbubble generator. Using orifice plates to utilize the flow structure results in more significant pressure loss. This study aims to identify the characteristics of the flow structure generated by single and double orifice plates with 1D and 2D spacing at various Reynolds numbers, namely Re = 1×104, 5×104, 1×105, and 5×105, as a basis for application in these various applications. The results show that single and double orifice plates can produce flow structure phenomena such as recirculation and vortex regions. The recirculation area is formed smaller in the double orifice plate due to the flow that is separated faster to converge back to the pipe wall but broader so that the flow of the orifice plate is narrower. Increasing the applied Reynold's number causes the separated flow to reconnect to the pipe wall faster, resulting in a smaller recirculation area. Double orifice plates are more suitable for applications that require a certain degree of mixing or pressure distribution, but with a consequent more significant pressure loss. Meanwhile, single plates can be used for simple needs with little pressure loss.

Abstract

In the realm of renewable energy, researchers worldwide have been paying close attention to developing the Oscillating Wave Surge Converter (OWSC) device. This device has the potential to harness the power of ocean waves and convert it into a reliable source of clean energy. Hydrodynamic characteristics are essential parameters in developing OWSC devices. Therefore, this research conducted a hydrodynamic study on the OWSC device with variations in ocean wave periods, including T= 1.5, 1.7, 1.9, 2.1, and 2.3. The Boundary Element Method (BEM) describes the interaction between sea waves and floating body structures. This method assumes incompressible, inviscid, and irrotational flow. A numerical approach is used as a calculation method followed by verification and validation to support the level of actualization. The research results showed that the incident wave caused the OWSC device to experience a deviation from its equilibrium position in the form of an oscillating flap inclination angle as a form of hydrodynamic characteristics. The sea wave period correlatedwith the rate of change in flap position over time, including the maximum deviation in the flap angle. As a power plant, the performance of the OWSC device can work at reasonably short-wave period intervals based on the device's ability to produce mechanical power. The highest average mechanical power was achieved in the T= 1.5 period of 34.49 Watts with an efficiency of up to 52.43%. The OWSC device requires a high intensity of wave energy in a short duration to generate optimal mechanical power. It is important to note that optimal mechanical power generation is crucial for the OWSC device to function effectively. Therefore, the device should be placed in a location where the wave energy intensity is consistently high.

Abstract

The concept of aerodynamics is an essential aspect of designing a vehicle. In this study, the aerodynamic characteristics of the Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) model are investigated using a numerical approach. This study uses three popular SUV models in Indonesia, including the Toyota Fortuner, Mitsubishi Pajero, and Hyundai Santa Fe. The three SUV models were tested at three different speed variations, including 20 km/h, 50 km/h, and 100 km/h. Based on the computational results, it was found that each SUV model produced a CD value that varied between 0.32 and 0.38. The highest CD value was obtained by the Toyota Fortuner, followed by two other vehicle models, including the Mitsubishi Pajero and Hyundai Santa Fe. The CD value obtained by each vehicle is dominated by drag pressure. This condition is indicated by the flow separation phenomenon, which causes a recirculation zone. In addition, the large frontal area causes an increase in stagnation pressure so that the pressure difference between the front and rear sides of the vehicle body causes significant drag. Based on the drag reduction percentage, the Hyundai Santa Fe Vehicle is the most aerodynamic vehicle model, with its ability to reduce drag by up to 6,604%. In addition, the Mitsubishi Pajero can reduce drag by up to 2,187%. On the other hand, the Toyota Fortuner cannot reduce drag because it has a CD value that is higher than the average CD value for SUV models.
