Abstract

In the continuum of time and technological advancement, the use of metals, specifically carbon steel, has significantly increased as primary materials in various operational and industrial domains, including tool fabrication and automotive components. To meet the evolving demands of industries, precise heat treatment processes have been developed to enhance the metallic properties. This study specifically focused on the application of the Quenching-Partitioning-Tempering (Q-P-T) method to ASTM A36 steel. The study investigated different partitioning temperatures, namely 300℃, 350℃, and 400℃, with 15-minute intervals. A comprehensive set of mechanical tests, including hardness, tensile, and microstructural analyses, were conducted to assess the response of the material to the treatment. The results reveal significant findings: a partitioning temperature of 300℃ yields the highest hardness value of 164 Vickers Hardness Number (VHN). Furthermore, the tensile tests demonstrate that a partitioning temperature of 300℃ is optimal, achieving a maximum stress value of 515.73 MPa. Conversely, a partitioning temperature of 400℃ exhibits the highest strain value at 21.08% and the highest elastic modulus value at 11.47 GPa. Microstructural evaluations highlighted the presence of pearlite and ferrite phases, with the partitioning temperature of 300°C displaying the highest proportion of pearlite phase at 38.5%. This meticulous investigation expands our understanding of metallurgy and underscores the intricate relationship between partitioning temperatures and the mechanical properties of ASTM A36 steel. It provides valuable insights for material design and application methodologies and facilitates advancements in industrial practices

Abstract

A centrifugal pump is an essential mechanical device in the Regional Drinking Water Company (PDAM) to distribute sterile water from the reservoir to local community houses by flowing the fluid through the pipeline. However, improper and inadequate maintenance of centrifugal pumps can result in component damage, including bearings that are broken, ripped, or damaged mechanical seals. Therefore, for the water supply to continue smoothly, proper maintenance needs to be carried out so that the engine's performance will be maintained and last longer. This study aims to conduct a maintenance analysis on centrifugal pumps utilized by the PDAM of Madiun City. The Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method was employed to assess the potential failure of a system, design, process, or service by implementing a systematic approach to analyze damage and devise maintenance strategies. The FMEA analysis revealed that the shaft of the centrifugal pump component had the highest Risk Priority Number (RPN) value, which amounts to 294. The wearing ring had the lowest RPN value among the centrifugal pump components, with a value of 54. The Pareto diagram results classified six components: shaft, clutch, stuffing box, motor, impeller, and mechanical seal to recommend preventative maintenance action. Additionally, three other components suggested for corrective maintenance were the bearing, packing, and wearing rings

Abstract

Passive solar desalination is a process of reducing the salt content of salt water to produce fresh water by utilizing solar heat. In recent years, interfacial heating has been proposed as an alternative to evaporation by creating localized heat on the water surface. Charcoal is an absorbent, heat storage, and wettability material, so the evaporation process not only occurs on the surface of seawater but also on the surface of the charcoal, which results from this wettability. The height of the charcoal indicates the distance the steam travels to reach the glass surface for the condensation process, thereby speeding up evaporation. The experiment was carried out in 4 single-slope-type basins using tubes filled with charcoal as high as 30, 40, and 50 mm for 8 hours in the sun. The results showed that adding heat-absorbing material to the basin was able to accelerate seawater to reach its boiling point so that it could evaporate. The temperature and humidity in each basin also have a similar changing trend where temperature is strongly influenced by solar radiation. The use of charcoal can also increase the rate of convection and evaporation heat transfer in the basin, as well as the maximum efficiency in basin 4 with an efficiency value of 56.40%, basin 2 at 53.17%, basin 3 at 51.62%, and basin 1 44.17%. Efficiency is obtained from the desalination efficiency equation, namely the ratio of the latent heat of vaporization to the solar energy entering the system

Abstract

The process of cutting low carbon steel (ST-37) typically utilizes High-Speed Steel (HSS) tools owing to their high hardness, affordability, and ease of shaping tool geometry. In machining, tool geometry plays a crucial role in the material cutting process and determines the quality of the final product, particularly surface roughness. The objective of this research is to achieve optimal surface roughness by varying the tool geometry and nose radius. This study employed an experimental approach using ST-37 and HSS tools. The variations in tool geometry include side rake angles of 12°, 15°, and 18°; side cutting edge angles of 85°, 80°, and 75°; and nose radii of 0 mm, 0.4 mm, and 0.8 mm. The machining parameters applied consist of a cutting depth of 1 mm and 2 mm, spindle rotation speeds of 185 rpm, 425 rpm, and 624 rpm, and a feed rate of 0.05 mm/rev, 0.075 mm/rev, and 0.1 mm/rev. Tool wear measurements were captured using a USB camera, whereas the surface roughness was assessed using a surface roughness tester. The impact of the tool geometry on the surface roughness was analyzed using the Taguchi-Grey Relational Analysis (Taguchi-GRA) and ANOVA methods. The optimal combination for ST-37 lathe machining with a sharpening tool is: A1 (cutting depth 1 mm), B1 (cutting speed 17.42 m/min), C3 (feed 0.05 mm/rev), D1 (corner radius 0 mm), E3 (side rake angle γ 18°), and F3 (side cutting edge angle γ 75°). According to the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), three factors—cutting speed, tool tip angle, and chip angle—should be considered to achieve minimal tool wear and desirable surface roughness during machining

Abstract

Indonesia observes a yearly rise in motor vehicle possession. Failure to consider alternate fuels in these trends may result in the depletion of gasoline. Out of the potential alternatives, Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) appears to be the most favorable. The sole issue lies in the elevated engine temperature and subsequent decrease in performance caused by its utilization. To address this vulnerability, it is advisable to employ a cooling injection method, such as water injection. Nevertheless, the rise in exhaust emissions linked to water injection highlights the necessity for optimization. This study aims to optimize coolant injection systems by conducting experiments with different modifications, such as conventional intake surfaces, dimple intake surfaces with gaps, and dimple intake surfaces without gaps. The gapless dimple inlet surface demonstrates superior performance in terms of exhaust emissions, power, and torque compared to both conventional inlet surfaces and slotted dimple inlet surfaces
