Polimesin mostly publishes studies in the core areas of mechanical engineering, such as energy conversion, machine and mechanism design, and manufacturing technology. As science and technology develop rapidly in combination with other disciplines such as electrical, Polimesin also adapts to new facts by accepting manuscripts in mechatronics. In Biomechanics, Mechanical study in musculoskeletal and bio-tissue has been widely recognized to help better life quality for disabled people and physical rehabilitation work. Such a wide range of Polimesin could be published, but it still has criteria to apply mechanical systems and principles. Exceeding the limitation has been a common reason for rejection by those outside the scope. Using chemical principles more than mechanical ones in material engineering has been a common reason for rejection after submission. Excessive exploration of the management within the discipline of Industrial Engineering in the manufacturing technology scope is also unacceptable. The sub-scope biomechanics that focuses on ergonomics and does not study movement involving applied force on the bio-tissue is also not suitable for submission.

Abstract

The purpose of this research  is to determine the velocity characteristics of fluid (fuel) flow in a pipe surrounded by a minimal magnetic (electromagnetic) field strength by using computational fluid dynamics simulations. For a more detailed discussion, Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) theory is used, which is a branch of science that studies fluid flow that can conduct electric current due to the influence of a magnetic (electromagnet) field. The fuel used is B0, B10, B20 and B30. The magnitude of the electromagnetic field used is 0.15 Tesla. the result is that the flow rate of B0 fuel has decreased by 0.623%. B10 fell to 0.41%. The B20 was down 0.618% and the B30 was down 0.648%. Thus the magnetic field strength of 0.15 Tesla is able to change the speed of the fuel flow even if only slightly. This information is needed as a basis for the development that the magnetic field is able to change the value of the flow velocity, this will provide information related to improving the quality of combustion and fuel savings in the future.

Abstract

One of the main obstacles for developers and users of photovoltaic (PV) modules is that the module temperature is too high due to high solar radiation and a higher ambient temperature, which reduces PV efficiency. A photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) system is a technique developed for absorbing heat, that combines PV with a solar thermal collector (STC). In this research, heat pipes are used as the heat transfer medium. This paper aims to design a PV/T system for water heating and examines the thermal performance and water temperature that can be achieved by PV/T. In designing PV/T, the method used is to estimate the intensity of solar radiation and determine the size of the thermal collector, thermal insulation, type of working fluid, and heat pipe filling ratio. The PV/T thermal performance is also tested after the system design has been built. The design parameters that have been obtained are the PV area of 0.67 m2 and the volume of heated water of 20 liters. This design proposes water as the working fluid of the heat pipe with a filling ratio of 10%. The system performance indicates that PV/T could heat the water to 50.9 °C with energy absorbed by the water of 1.85 MJ, and the maximum thermal efficiency of PV/T is 27.14%. The results show that PV/T has a very promising future in terms of its ability to use heat energy and can be further developed for future research so that it can encourage people to use environmentally friendly renewable energy

Abstract

The global warming issue has been resolved through Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agreed upon by the world. One of the SDGs is affordable and clean energy. Green energy, such as solar energy, is a solution to realize it. Solar energy has massive potential as renewable energy in tropical countries. On the one side, solar energy is an excellent renewable energy. On the other side, solar energy has a low maturity level of technology. It is proven by the extravagant investment cost of building a solar power plant. Indonesia has an investment cost of up to 1200 USD per kWh, which is unsuitable for household applications. This investment cost will continue to be higher when it uses an IoT system for monitoring or managing the solar power plant. The low-cost solar power plant was designed using a hybrid system to reduce the investment cost. The industrial standard components include ACS712 as a current sensor, ZMPT101B as an AC voltage sensor, and ESP32 as a data processor and IoT module. The Blynk platform, connected to ESP32, is a web-based monitoring system. The success parameter consists of the DC voltage and current from battery and solar panel, AC voltage and current from single phase inverter. The low-cost solar power plant is designed in a 1.92 kWh battery pack with 1 kWh of AC continuous output power with total investment cost 1080 USD. The proposed solar power plant design decreases an investment cost by 14.29% up to 50.00 % per kWh.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of the undershot water wheel type with a 3 kW generator as a micro-hydro power plant that generates electricity by utilizing water power from paddy fields and local resources. Where the irrigation canal can irrigate approximately 247 hectares of rice fields during the dry season. The research technique employs a waterwheel with a 1.1-meter diameter, 12 blades with a 70-centimeter blade arm length, and a 2-inch shaft diameter. The transmission system employs a chain to increase rotation and decrease slippage and rotation losses, making it simpler to drive the generator to produce electricity. The test was conducted by varying the lamp capacity from 100 W to 800 W while maintaining constant water discharge and flow. Water discharge, water head, generator rotation, electric current traveling through the load, and output voltage are the test parameters. With a discharge of 0.476 m3/s, a water flow speed of 3.229 m/s, a waterwheel rotation of 42.39 rpm, and electric power of 207 W, the utmost efficiency value of 8.35% was determined.

Abstract

JIS SUP 9A leaf spring steel under hot-forging conditions was subjected to full annealing (FA) and single step-quenching-tempering heat treatments (SQT). Tensile test specimens to ASTM E 8 standards have been prepared. The FA process was performed by heating all specimens in the furnace at a constant temperature of 800°C for 2 hours, followed by cooling in the furnace. Then, all test specimens were heat-treated SQT. The SQT process was carried out by heating all samples in a furnace at 800°C for 1 hour and 650°C for 1 hour, each followed by immersion in crude palm oil (CPO) media at a liquid temperature of 70°C until the specimens reached 100°C. The FA process removes internal stresses with high microstructural softness and SQT produces a fine martensitic phase microstructure, which improves mechanical strength (tensile strength and impact strength) with good ductility. Electron and scanning microscopy have been used to determine the concentration of impurities and microstructural changes in relation to the mechanical properties of the specimen concerned. The results showed that the yield limit, maximum tensile stress, and impact energy increased by 113.5%, 16.3%, and 705.2%, respectively. However, hardness decreased by 18.8% for SQT specimens against FA after heat treatment. This research utilizes industrial waste, which is available quite a lot; in the future, it will become an alternative for handling environmental problems. The abundant availability of raw materials and resulting strength-toughness are the main advantages of this heat treatment

Abstract

Service sector is a job that is considered exposed to high mental demand. There is lack of technique to measure issues related to the mental workload and mental fatigue levels among workers. Moreover, no studies have yet developed a model to predict mental fatigue especially for service sector workers. It is necessary to investigate mental workload and mental fatigue in real time working activities. The main purpose of this study was to identify the trends and relationship between mental workload and mental fatigue level among service sector workers. Ten participants with a mean age of 35.00±8.62 (SD) years took part in the study. Two experiments in Without Rest (WoR) and With Rest (WR) segments involving data entry and arithmetic tasks were conducted. Physiological measures using Electroencephalogram (EEG), Electrooculogram (EOG) and heart rate (HR) were assessed while participants were performing the tasks. The result shows that EEG alpha signal was significantly higher at the end of WR compared to WoR segment (p0.05). Comparison between WoR and WR segments for each task show that HR of WR tasks were significantly lower in all tasks (p0.05). This study developed seven mental workload and mental fatigue conceptual models with strong variables correlations (r0.05) to evaluate the variability of both parts of two types of activities, namely, data entry and arithmetic tasks. The findings highlighted that validated parameters and methods for mental fatigue and mental workload measures are brain signals and heart rate monitoring, and task performance measure. Significant findings of the study could be as a reference for organizations to plan and manage resources by optimizing mental workload condition and minimizing mental fatigue occurrence

Abstract

This study aims to develop a cutting tool cooling system for lathe machines in dry machining using finned flat heat pipes. The heat pipe is equipped with fins placed at the cutting tool's edge to reduce the cutting tool's temperature. Tests were conducted on conventional lathes with spindle speeds varied from 250 rpm, 540 rpm, and 850 rpm for the 20-minute operation to reduce the workpiece diameter from 22 to 18 mm and 90 mm long. The testing was carried out in three methods: (1) dry cutting process without heat pipe and coolant, (2) cutting process without heat pipe but using coolant, (3) dry cutting process equipped with heat pipe without coolant fluid. The result shows that using heat pipes as a cooling medium significantly influences reducing the cutting tool temperature compared with the dry machining process. The cutting tool temperature can be maintained at 30–40oC when using a heat pipe as part of the cooling system. Using heat pipes as a cutting tool cooling medium also positively affects the cutting tool's life. During the 20-minute with spindle speed 250 rpm machining process, the cutting tool assisted with the heat pipe has not shown wear, while the cutting tool in the dry machining process began to show wear. On the other hand, the cooling process using coolant liquid gives maximum results, so a combination of heat pipes and coolant fluid with a minimum capacity can be recommended as part of the cooling system to improve the cutting tool's performance.
