Mechatronics, Electrical Power, and Vehicular Technology (hence MEV) is a journal aims to be a leading peer-reviewed platform and an authoritative source of information. We publish original research papers, review articles and case studies focused on mechatronics, electrical power, and vehicular technology as well as related topics. All papers are peer-reviewed by at least two referees. MEV is published and imprinted by Research Center for Electrical Power and Mechatronics - Indonesian Institute of Sciences and managed to be issued twice in every volume. For every edition, the online edition is published earlier than the print edition.

Abstract

Quality of the diesel-electric train (KRDE) modified from the electric train (A and B types) which were used in three operating regions in the Indonesian Railway Company has been evaluated by analyzing the cause of the KRDE damages in terms of some aspects including: design, components quality, maintenance (method, finance, human resources), environment and way of operation. Based on the evaluation, it was found that the modification of the both types of KRDE provided a very low reliability and availability due to design and technical problems, as well as unoptimal maintenance. In KRDE type A, damage occurs in the cabling system, compressor, radiator fan system, and the braking system. While in type B, damage occurs in the traction motors, static inverter, and radiator fan. It is predicted that their life span can not reach the design life of 25 years, and even they are expected to be grounded. Many improvement is required to lengten their service life including: repair, modification, human resource competence, facilities, spare parts, maintenance and management.

Abstract

This research was implementing vehicle networking using WIFI connection and computer vision to measure the distance of vehicles in front of a driver. In particular, this works aimed to improve a safe driving environment thus supporting the current technology concept being developed for inter-vehicular networking, VANET, especially in its safety application such as Overtaking Assistance System. Moreover, it can wirelessly share useful visual information such as hazard area of a road accident. In accordance with Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) concept, a vehicle required to be able to conduct networking via a wireless connection. Useful data and video were the objects to be sent over the network established. The distance of a vehicle to other vehicles towards it is measured and sent via WIFI together with a video stream of the scenery experienced by the front vehicle. Haar Cascade Classifier is chosen to perform the detection. For distance estimation, at least three methods have been compared in this research and found evidence that, for measuring 5 meters, the iterative methods shows 5.80. This method performs well up to 15 meters. For measuring 20 meters, P3P method shows a better result with only 0.71 meters to the ground truth. To provide a physical implementation for both the detection and distance estimation mechanism, those methods were applied in a compact small-sized vehicle-friendly computer device the Raspberry Pi. The performance of the built system then analyzed in terms of streaming latency and accuracy of distance estimation and shows a good result in measuring distance up to 20 meters.

Abstract

The main target of a steering system is that the driver can change vehicle trajectory in accordance with the desired direction.  Power steering has become a standard feature in automobile.  It provides assisting power when the driver turns the steering wheel. The well-known power steering types include; Hydraulic Power Steering (HPS), Electro - Hydraulic Power Steering (EHPS), and Electric Power Steering (EPS). EHPS or EPS uses an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) which is specific for each vehicle. The ECU should be able to regulate power of electric motor to provide corresponding assisting power for the steering wheel. Therefore ECU requires input signals, one of which is vehicle wheel angle that can be indicated from the vehicle steering wheel angle. Incremental type of Rotary Encoder (RE) is used in steering angle sensor on a minibus. RE specification used was 60 pulses per rotation and the minibus steering transmission specification is 3.5 round of right wheel off angle to the left wheel off angle. So we get the RE angular resolution 6ºper pulse and 105 number of pulses to half of the steering transmission ratio. Repeatability then tested against to a steering angle counter module. Testing is done with a test cycle consisting of 3 repetitions: condition center of the steering wheel, the steering wheel is turned to full right, then to the full left, then back to the right up to the steering wheel center. The results obtained 2 pulses deviation, or equivalent to 12º of steering angle.

Abstract

Analysis of heat loss on heat storage tank in solar power generation system is intended to determine the heat loss value during storage. Selection of insulation material, insulation thickness, time of storage and heat storage fluid affects the heat losses. The research was initiated by determining the dimension of the tank and its insulation material, and determining the heat storage time in the tank. Fluid and operating temperature is determined to get the fluid specification to be used as data analysis. The analysis begins with the calculation of storage capacities, followed by making of thermal nets to get the thermal resistance equation which is then used to calculate the heat loss in the tank. The result shows that the heat storage tank with 0.4 m diameter and 0.45 m height and uses ceramic fiber wool insulation with 0.1m thickness gives the value of heat loss of 63.43 W.
