Abstract

Lignite coal has dominated the use of steam power plants in recent years. Despite the consequences, which cause many problems, lignite is cheap and easy to obtain. One of the problems was mitigated by reducing the moisture content using a rotary coal dryer. Coal dryer is deemed uneconomical with the current energy sources from turbine extraction steam, electric heaters, and exhaust gas using large-powered fans. The waste energy from boiler blowdown, a water-vapored fluid discharged from the boiler to maintain water and steam quality, is being conducted to improve. Blowdown investigated in a rotary coal dryer type. The compressed air absorbed the heat from the blowdown through the steam coil. The hot air mixed with the coal in the rotary drum. A rotary drum was tested with the tilt angles of 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, and 90°. The research steps were designing, preliminary modeling, numerical analysis, prototyping, and experimental performing. The result shows that the moisture content has decreased significantly from 35.37% to 21.28%, within an angle of 10°. Based on an economic assessment, this coal dryer also proves that dried lignite coal has increased 4.9% economic value than bituminous coal.

Abstract

This paper present finite element analysis on the internal structure of wind turbine to examined the deflection and stress distribution. The structure was modeled as a cantilever box beam with constant cross section along the length. The dimension of the structure was set according to the original design of the 10 MW AVATAR (Advanced Aerodynamic Tools for Large Rotors) wind turbine. The proposed materials were unidirectional thin-ply TC35/Epoxy and M55/Epoxy carbon composites and standardthickness S−Glass 913/Epoxy composite. The fibre at the spar caps is oriented at 90o and at the shear webs at 0o. The deflection curve of the three composite materials showing non-linear behaviour with a maximum deflection of 2.618 m, 2.429 m, 4.175 m at the blade tip for S−Glass 913/Epoxy, T35/Epoxy, M55/Epoxy respectively which is less than the maximum deflection of an existing AVATAR beam. The critical stresses are located at the top outer surface of the spar cap which received the load directly and at the intersection between the spar caps and shear webs where stress transfer occurs. The deflection performance of the structure is dictated by the transverse Young’s Modulus (E22)  while the longitudinal Young’s Modulus (E11) plays an important role on stress distribution.

Abstract

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is an unmanned aircraft that can be controlled remotely or flown automatically. Nowadays, the use of UAVs is extensive, not only limited to the military field but also in civilian tasks such as humanitarian search and rescue (SAR) tasks, railroad inspections, and environmental damage inspections. Therefore, study on UAV becomes essential to answer the challenges of its increasingly widespread use. This study explores the addition of a blended winglet on the swept-back wing of the UAV. It is to predict the effect of the aerodynamic performance. The backpropagation neural network (BPNN) method helps to predict the aerodynamic performance of the UAV in the form of a lift-drag coefficient ratio (CL/CD) and drag coefficient at 0O angle of attack (CD0). It is based on blended winglet parameters such as height, tip chord, and cant angle. The obtained BPNN modeling has a network architecture of 3 inputs, 2 hidden layers, and 1 output with a mean square error (MSE) of 4.9462e-08 and 4.4756e-06 for the relationships between blended winglet parameters with CL/CD and CD0, respectively.

Abstract

Drying lignite coal to reduce its moisture content has become popular in the last decade. Previously, coal dryers used typical energy such as steam, fuel, or electrical as heat sources. Waste energy had never been implemented in a coal dryer while using it would reduce the cost of production and raise the economic value of the coal itself. An experimental study of drying low-rank coal was conducted using waste energy boiler blowdown in a rotary coal dryer. With variations of 0.595 mm, 1.18 mm, and 4.75 mm coal particle size and the flow's changes of 20 kg/hour, 30 kg/hour, and 40 kg/hour. The hot air temperature of 70oC, mass flow rate of 36 kg/hour, and pressure of 0,03 MPa were the constant parameters on the 15 rpm rotary drum. The results found that the coal moisture decreased significantly at 0.595 mm particle size and 20 kg/hour of flow. The final coal moisture dropped by 20.685%, and the calorific value increased by 879.6 kcal/kg from its initial value. In addition, the efficiency of the rotary coal dryer is 81.8%.

Abstract

A stent is a mesh of micro metal tube commonly used to provide support to an enlarged blood vessels that are narrowed due to plaque growth. To function correctly, a stent must have specific characteristics, which includes good flexibility. The flexibility of the stent can be predicted using the finite element method simulation. The type of stent studied are the sinusoidal and spiral type balloon-expandable stent. The 3D model is created in Solidworks 2016, while the structural analysis is performed with ANSYS Workbench Student R18. The simulation carried out is a four-point bending test. The analyzed parameters are the von Mises stress and the flexibility value of the stent. The material model for the stent is isotropic SS 316 L, while the balloon was polyurethane which is modeled as hyper-elastic material. The results obtained from this study are sinusoidal type stents can be deflected up to 0.221 mm to remain in the elastic area, while spiral type stents can be deflected up to 0.109 mm. The maximum flexibility value of the sinusoidal type stent is 0.003526 N-1.mm-2 while the spiral type stent is 0.002478 N-1.mm-2.
