Abstract

The tie rod shaft is one of the most essential parts in the coal grinder machine at the coal mill plant to support the roller grinder axial movement. Since the tie rod shaft receives the cyclic load constantly, the inappropriate design can cause the lifetime of the shaft to be short. The broken incidents of the tie rod shaft at coal mill the coal mill plant of PT X takes effect on the Steam and Power Supply to the ammonia and Urea Plant. This Research aims to analyze the abnormality on the tie rod shaft, which is always broken on the fillet section. The Stress concentration factor, Maximum Stress, and Surface roughness on the fillet section of the shaft have an extraordinary effect on the Fatigue lifetime. With the special tool assistant, the conventional lathe machine can compete with the CNC machine Quality to make Fillet contour as well as polished treatment and precise as the tool assistant can make the constant rotational movement produced by the human hand. The result showed that the tie rod shaft with 0.33 μm surface roughness level and fillet dimension strictly at 5mm could extend the lifetime of the tie rod shaft beyond the target after installed on the plant

Abstract

Welding process is the joining of two metals by heating. There are two types of welding that are often applied in the field, namely gas welding (OAW) and electric welding (SMAW). Both of them have their advantages as metal connectors. This research originated from a problem that occurred in the upper arm on the welding table which experienced bending as a result of carrying the load when holding the welding disc. Therefore, CAD/CAE design is carried out. In this case, the strength and tension that occur in the upper arm are analyzed. This research aims to reveal the value of the stress that occurs in the upper arm and the safety value. Where in the design the planned force capacity is 300 newtons using the finite element method or also known as Finite Element Analysis (FEA). And the material used is ASTM A36. The results of the simulation and also the analysis that has been carried out show that the upper arm frame structure on the welding table has a stress, deformation, and safety factor of 311.987 MPa, 2.28286 mm, and 0.663488 ul.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of zinc (Zn) material added to used aluminum (Al), which should affect its strength and hardness. In this current study, zinc material (Zn) was applied as an additional material to aluminum scrap, by mass percentages of Al 100% Zn 0%, Al 95% Zn 5%, Al 94.5% Zn 5.5%, and Al 94% Zn 6%, respectively. The results showed that the addition of zinc (Zn) had indeed affected the impact value and hardness properties of aluminum-zinc alloy (Al-Zn). The addition of zinc (Zn) at 6% yielded the highest effective strength value of 0.24 J/mm2, and the lowest effective strength value of 0.14 J/mm2. Although the highest hardness value was found by addition of 6% zinc (Zn), the average hardness was 73.76 HRB and the lowest hardness was 29.23 HRB. In conclusion, as the addition of Zinc (Zn) into the material composition increases, the impact and toughness properties of the material increases.

Abstract

Sunlight has long been used in daily activities, especially drying clothes. The only concern is sudden rain and people are not aware that their clothes are still on the clothesline. Due to this, many opt to dry their clothes indoor, which takes longer to dry. With regard to the aforementioned issue, in this research, Internet of Things (IoT) concept is applied in the production of automatic clotheslines by the integration of weather monitoring and forecasting with automatic clothesline. This automatic clothesline has an LDR sensor and a rain sensor to detect light and raindrops in the environment, then the values obtained from these two sensors are processed by the microcontroller to control the DC motor that can moves the clothes inside and outside from the sensors system which can be monitored and controled via smartphone using the Blynk app. The outcome of this research is an automatic clothesline prototype that is accessible through the Blynk app; utilising LDR sensors, rain sensors, and motor to retrieve clothes.

Abstract

The use of air conditioning (AC) systems has greatly improved human comfort since the 20th century. However, challenges like the greenhouse effect, global warming, and increased energy consumption pose significant problems. To address these issues, a common solution is the use of desiccants to absorb air humidity, though regenerating them with a boiler requires additional energy. This study investigates the application of Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger (HPHE) to harness wasted heat as a preheating medium in a regeneration system. Solutions of calcium chloride (CaCl2) desiccants, ranging in concentrations of 36%, 49%, and 62%, coupled with flow rates of 0.1, 0.15, and 0.2 liters per minute, were employed to evaluate both the effectiveness and the visual quality of the regeneration system. Results showed the highest temperature difference with a 62% concentration desiccant at a flow rate of 0.15 liters/minute, approximately ±2.35°C. The regenerator and dehumidifier achieved peak effectiveness at a concentration of 62% and a flow rate of 0.2 lpm, recording values of 23.56% and 45.31%, respectively. This research proposes a practical solution for recovering wasted heat in AC regeneration systems, reducing energy consumption, and improving desiccant utilization efficiency.

Abstract

This automatic motorbike uses an automatic transmission system called CVT (Contynously Variable Transmission). CVT is a system that automatically changes speed according to engine speed. This machine does not use transmission gears, but instead uses two pulleys (front and rear) which are connected by a belt (v-belt. The advantege of a CVt automatic transmission is that it can provide speed changes in torque from the engine to the rear whells automatically. This research aims to determine the effect of roller weight on the power and engine torque of a 110 cc two wheeled vehicle. The background of this research is to determine the power and torque of motorbikes for each roller weight studied and to draw conclusions about better use of rollers weight. This research uses experimental research methods, the materials used are standard 12gr,11gr,10gr,9gr,8gr rollers, as a comparison and 110cc injection beat motorbikes. The toll used in this research is a dynamometer. This tool shows directly the maximum power results at a certain rpm. Changes in the weight of the Honda Beat 110cc CVT roller affect the power produced by the engine. Changes in roller weight can affect the size of the engine’s power and torque. This in proven by data showing changes in engine power and torque during each test. Therefore, it is hoped that the result of this test can be used as a reference for improving engine peformance in vehicles.
