Abstract

This paper highlights a study for the failure investigation of superheater tubes made of the material T-91 of a boiler in the coal-fired power plant. Two tubes are subjected to different types of failure. Visual examination, dimensional measurement, and chemical analysis are conducted as part of the study. Apart from these, the hardness test and microstructural analysis are also conducted to ascertain the possible cause of failure. The superheater tube material cracking, cavity until broken failure that occurred on the first tube was resulted in thick lip rupture and the second tube resulted in thin lip fish mouth rupture. Creep deformation, localized rapid overheating, surface tube erosion, and fly ash of coal corrosion are the main cause of tube failure. It can be avoided by regularly and according to standards cleaning the scale or deposit on the surface of the tube.

Abstract

All of the electrical and mechanical components in the solar-electric bus certainly require a chassis. A chassis frame construction must be strong and light enough to bend when it receives loads. This article focuses on stress analysis using finite element method related to the solar-electric bus chassis, including the vertical load, longitudinal (acceleration and braking), and turning load. It began with a literature review and collecting the data of chassis dimensions and materials. It was then ended by getting the data simulation and evaluation of comparison results. From the simulation results for the chassis initial design, the highest Von-Misses stress happened for turning load, 182.45 MPa, and a safety factor of 1.4. While from simulation of the redesigned chassis, the Von-Mises stress reduced to 169.87 MPa with a safety factor of 1.5. Furthermore, the vertical load conditions resulted in the lowest Von-Mises stress, which was 87.89 MPa with a safety factor of 2.84.

Abstract

Small unmanned aerial vehicle (SUAV) is an unmanned aircraft vehicle (UAV) that flies at an altitude of lower than 1,100 m from the ground, has a maximum gross takeoff weight of 10 kg, and a flight speed of less than 50 m/s. One of the design factors for the small UAV design with a fixed-wing propeller is the airfoil selection. The selection of an airfoil profile using aerodynamic concepts leads to a performance coefficient that determines the selected airfoil’s sustainability and efficiency. The coefficients used are CL, CD, and CM. Numerical studies were carried out using Computational Fluid Dynamics using XFLR5 and ANSYS Fluent 19.1 software to evaluate airfoils in 2D and evaluate the phenomenon of induced drag on the wings in 3D. Airfoil selection was made on five types of airfoils: AH 83-150 Q, E399, E431, E715, and E662. The coefficients of CL, CD, and CM were obtained by varying α. 3D analysis of selected airfoil geometry with finite span. Simulation of steady conditions using Reynolds-Averaged-Navier-Stokes (RANS) in the Spalart-Allmaras turbulent model with variations of α = 0 ◦ , 8◦ , 12◦ , and 16◦ . The post-processor visualized the flow around the wing with pressure contours, velocity pathlines, and tip vortices. The analysis was carried out on the aerodynamic coefficients of CL, CD, CM, and CMr with α variation on the finite span wing. Based on the research, the results showed that the selected airfoil was E431, the aerodynamic performance of the CL, CD, CL/CD, CM, and CMr wings. In addition, information was also obtained regarding a decrease in the pressure difference between the upper surface and lower surface of the wing with an increasing span, 3D streamline, the extent of the contour of the vorticity magnitude, and a streamline on the wingtip on the upper surface and lower surface of the wing.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the characteristics of fluid flow through root canal irrigation using positive and negative pressure methods used CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) software by modeling root canals and needle insertion in the root canals. This modeling used a steady flow, an incompressible flow, and uniform flow at the inlet side, and the roughness of the root canal wall surface is neglected (smooth wall). The open-ended needle with different insertion lengths applied for each method with a flow rate of 0.2 mL/s or about 6.63 m/s and the Reynolds number is 1376 (Laminar). The fluid has 2.5% of NaOCl with the density of 1060 kg/m3 and 0.001 Pa.s of fluid viscosity. After considering factors such as velocity, dynamic pressure, and wall shear stress in both methods, a greater velocity value in the apical region is determined by using a positive pressure method. Meanwhile, the negative pressure method shows the ability to lift higher due to shear stress, which is more evenly distributed upwards. However, both methods are qualified for irrigation replacement in the apical region.

Abstract

Magnetic gear is an alternative to mechanical gear, where the magnetic gear has the advantages of no noise, minimum vibration, no maintenance required, increased reliability, overload protection capability, no physical contact between gears, and the resulting torque density is still below the mechanical gear torque density. In this research, the variation of the number of poles and air gap in the amount of torque density produced was carried out. The permanent magnet material used is Neodymium type with a gear ratio of 1:2. In the variation of the number of poles used by pairs of 4 and 8 poles, 8 and 16 poles, 10 and 20 poles, and 12 and 24 poles, in the variation of the air gap used, namely 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.4 mm and 1.5 mm. Magnetic gear performance can be seen through analysis simulation with the 3D finite element method using Finite Elements Software. The type of simulation used is the magnetostatic analysis method at the processing stage and the transient analysis method at the post-processing stage. From the simulation results, it is concluded that the greater the number of poles, the greater the torque density produced, and the closer the air gap distance will result in a greater torque density. The effect of the number of poles on the torque density is more significant than the effect of the air gap.
