Abstract

Reinforced concrete is a crucial element in infrastructure. However, it is unfortunate that the issue of corrosion in reinforced concrete structures has a significant impact and requires detailed consideration. Since the 1980s, research on corrosion-related problems has been initiated, one of which involves the SACP (Sacrificial Anode Cathodic Protection) approach using Zn sacrificial anodes. The purpose of this method is to control the corrosion rate in reinforced concrete. Environmental factors, such as the composition of solutions, play a role in influencing the resulting corrosion rate. Therefore, research is conducted by applying different solutions, namely 4% and 5% NaCl solutions, as well as Freshwater. This aims to compare the effects of these solutions on the measured corrosion rate using Zn anodes. The test results over a 4-week period indicate that the 5% NaCl solution exhibits a very high corrosion rate, as evidenced by the corrosion potential value of -790.3 mV. Conversely, the freshwater solution demonstrates a lower corrosion rate, with a corrosion potential value of -225.6 mV and a corrosion risk of only around 10%. This research provides a deeper understanding of the impact of solutions on the corrosion rate in reinforced concrete and offers a more scientific and contemporary perspective in line with current developments.

Abstract

Indonesia predominantly consists of a population engaged in rice farming as their primary source of livelihood. The rice farmers in Indonesia continue to employ traditional methods in the rice drying process, which poses a significant challenge as it substantially impacts the efficiency of rice processing. Consequently, to address this issue, a rice drying apparatus employing wick heat pipes as heat transfer devices has been developed. In the course of this research, the drying apparatus underwent testing at multiple points, with variations in voltage and airspeed. This was undertaken to ascertain the optimal voltage level at which the wick heat pipes, and the drying chamber would operate effectively. Voltage settings of 180V, 200V, and 220V were used, coupled with airspeeds of 1.5 m/s and 2 m/s. For the 180V setting and an airspeed of 2 m/s, a heat transfer rate (Q) of 1.0552 J/s was achieved, with an efficiency of 0.18%. Conversely, at an airspeed of 1.5 m/s, the heat transfer rate amounted to 1.1306 J/s, and the efficiency reached 0.19%. At 200V and an airspeed of 2 m/s, the heat transfer rate was 1.5075 J/s, and the efficiency was 0.21%, while at an airspeed of 1.5 m/s, the heat transfer rate was 1.1306 J/s, with an efficiency of 0.16%. At 220V and an airspeed of 2 m/s, the heat transfer rate was 1.8009 J/s, and the efficiency was 0.21%, while at an airspeed of 1.5 m/s, the heat transfer rate remained at 1.8009 J/s, and the efficiency also stood at 0.21%. In conclusion, it can be inferred that the wick heat pipes, and the drying chamber demonstrated optimal performance at the 220V voltage setting.

Abstract

The demand for electricity is continually increasing. Typically, electrical energy is generated using fossil fuels such as coal in thermal power plants. Generally, these power plants or other electricity generators supply power to densely populated areas such as large cities. Remote areas, however, often lack access to electricity due to their distance from urban centers. One solution to this issue is the development of micro-hydropower plants (MHPs). In MHPs, turbines are generally made of metal, which has high inertia and thus leads to lower efficiency. Therefore, this study replaces the turbine in an MHP with one made of fiberglass to assess the material's resistance to the water pressure in MHP operations. Based on the research conducted, the allowable stress for the fiberglass was determined to be 11.59801 MPa, with the water pressure applied to be 0.000985 MPa.

Abstract

Renewable energy utilization has become a primary focus in addressing the negative impacts of fossil fuel usage for electricity needs. One proposed solution is using water flow energy through a Pelton turbine. However, traditional materials used in Pelton turbines, especially metals, have disadvantages such as high inertia and susceptibility to corrosion. In this study, we replaced the Pelton turbine's material with fiberglass composite, which offers lower inertia and better corrosion resistance. This study aims to evaluate the performance of the Pelton turbine using fiberglass composite material. Tests were conducted by connecting the turbine to a generator and installing three adjustable nozzles, divided into seven sections based on the number of nozzles opened. Voltage, current, and electric power were measured using a power meter. The results show that with a load consisting of LED light bulbs, the section with one nozzle open (Section 2) achieved the best power output of 1.11 watts, while the section with two nozzles open (Section 6) achieved the best power output of 1.66 watts. Without load, the highest voltage occurred in Section 2 with one nozzle open at 30.9 volts, while the highest power was recorded in Section 4 with two nozzles open at 31.26 volts

Abstract

Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) is a starfruit vegetable that is often used by Indonesian people as an acid in kitchen spices. Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) is often made into suntan acid so that it can be used for 1-1.5 years because it has undergone a drying process. The drying process for Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) is still traditional, namely by drying it in direct sunlight. This drying is less efficient because it is influenced by several factors such as weather factors and the length of the drying process which can affect the quality and color of sunti acid. This research aims to find out how to design and design tools, as well as time and temperature in processing the tunnel type Starfruit (Averrhoa Bilimbi L) using a blower system with heat control based on Arduino Mega 2560. The research method used in this research is quantitative research. The research results show that the design and design in this research have been successfully designed, overall, this tool is shaped like a tube with several supporting components, namely LPG gas, blower, and drum holder. The time needed to reach a dry Belimbing Wuluh is done in 6 stages with an interval of 120 minutes, so the total is 12 hours. The temperatures that occur in both T1, T2, and T3 vary as seen from the test graph. Temperature testing in this test uses a MAX6675 sensor with a thermocouple connected to an Arduino Mega 2560. To measure weight, use a manual scale. It is recommended that the drying room be made denser so that it can produce good heat. The addition of a blower is very necessary so that the hot air can be distributed thoroughly. It is hoped that this starfruit dryer can be developed even better and can help the community in drying wealth starfruit.

Abstract

The existing drying system struggles with efficiency and costs, contradicting its intended resource-saving purpose. Addressing these issues could generate increased interest in its utilization. To tackle this, precise control of the dryer's temperature and optimization of the heat source are essential for obtaining accurate and real-time data. Employing a quantitative approach, the researcher conducted a case study, performing tests subsequent to the completion of the dryer's assembly. These tests encompassed temperature measurements on both the core and periphery of the paraffin medium, as well as at the lower, middle, and upper sections of the heat pipes. Diverse voltage levels (150V, 180V, 200V, 220V) and two distinct airflow velocities (1 m/s and 2 m/s) were implemented. The study yielded a noteworthy finding: at 200 volts and a 2m/s airflow, a stable temperature of 94.8 ºC was maintained for an impressive duration of 1 hour and 5 minutes during testing. This promising outcome holds significant implications for enhancing the system's efficiency.

Abstract

Stress in a mechanically loaded structure is a critical aspect that warrants thorough investigation. The impact of stress on a structure can lead to various consequences, including crack propagation and fracture. Gears play a crucial role in transmitting power and rotation between shafts, making an in-depth analysis of stress in gears essential for ensuring mechanical reliability. Previous research has predominantly focused on stress and loads in gears, utilizing mathematical and numerical methods to explore variations in parameters such as gear diameter and thickness in various vehicles and machines. However, there is a noticeable gap in the literature regarding the analysis of the effect of AISI 1020 steel material on spur gears, particularly in the context of a carding machine for silk processing. This study aims to fill this void by employing a mathematical approach to determine the flexural stress in prototype spindle gears used in a carding machine for silk processing. Through thorough analysis and mathematical calculations, the flexural stress in the prototype spindle gears of the carding machine for silk processing was determined to be 176.32 kg/mm². This research provides valuable insights into the mechanical behavior of gears under load, specifically in the context of the unique requirements of a carding machine for silk processing.
