Abstract

So far, cassava cutting is still done traditionally using simple tools and machines. There are several cassava chips entrepreneurs who use simple chopping machines but still do not meet their production capacity, it takes a long time, and the cassava cutting capacity is between 5 kg to 6 kg per hour. Based on the problems above, we aim to develop and innovate to change the cassava chopper system to be practical and efficient so that it can solve problems manually and be more time efficient. The purpose of this study, cassava chips entrepreneurs can use a cassava chopper machine with the result that the cassava cutting capacity increases. The result of this research is a cassava chopper machine with an electric motor specification of 0.5 pk. This chip machine uses a stainless steel blade plate with a diameter of 270 mm and a thickness of 5mm. The transmission system changes the rotation of the electric motor from 1400 rpm to 705 rpm, with components in the form of 2 pulleys, 76.2 mm and 156.2 mm in diameter and connected by a v-belt type A-70. The results of the performance test of the cassava chips machine are able to produce cassava chips 15 kg/hour.

Abstract

In the Malangan mask dance drama, the dance is accompanied by the strains of gending. Padepokan Mangun Darma Tumpang's version of Gending Bapang is the longest, according to the duration of the dance and the highest diversity of movements. This makes the Bapang dance and music version of the Mangun Darma hermitage a complete object of study, which can be used as a reference for other versions of Bapang research. This article aims to examine the temporal aspect of Bapang Malangan's music from the point of view of psychoacoustic studies. The temporal aspect is related to time-based vibration (sound) variables that are real time. Gending analysis is done using a sound processing application called Audacity. The research data will be converted into a temporal graph t (time) - A (amplitude). The temporal chart pattern will be analyzed for the strength and weakness of the voice, the dynamics of the sound, and the musical character. The results of the graphic analysis will be used as the basis for making a discussion about psychoacoustic gending. The results showed that the Bapang Malangan music version of Padepokan Mangun Dharma Tumpang Malang had a score of 4 which was the category of music therapy. Temporal characters represented by sound intensity have an average of 28.7 dB for the left sound and 30.1 dB for the right voice. This makes this gending does not include harmful noise.

Abstract

The brake system is one of the components of the engine elements on the vehicle that can support the comfort and safety factor in driving. Brakes function to slow down or stop the movement of the wheels by means of friction. The kinetic energy lost from a moving object is usually converted into heat due to friction. The purpose of this report is to find out the functions, working principles and calculations as well as to know the things that must be considered in planning the drum brake. The method used to make this report is from direct observation of the object, literature study and guidance from the supervisor. From the drum brake specifications that have been described, we can find out the calculation steps needed to find the normal force on the rear wheels, the permissible frictional force, and the maximum use of the brakes. After several calculation steps, the torque on the brakes is 41.82kg.m, the gripping force on the drum brakes is 30.1 kg, the frictional force on the drum brakes is 14.45 kg, the braking capacity of the drum brakes is 2.023 kg. m, the number of braking contacts is 16856contacts. In one month it is assumed that 2500 times the braking contact will be obtained, so that the life of the drum brake pads is 6 months. The canvas can last longer or it can run out quickly depending on the user's usage and further research is needed if you want to get more accurate results because the different types of material and the difference in braking time will affect the lifespan of the brake pads.

Abstract

Motorcycles are one of the simple motorized vehicle transportation tools that are widely used by people today. The formulation of the problem in this research is what is the result of the compression ratio value that is obtained after the research and what is the compression value according to the machine. The purpose of this study was to determine the value of the compression ratio on a modified engine and to determine the fuel used in the compression ratio. The method used in this study is a literature study, calculating and determining the amount of compression. The results obtained from the calculation to get the compression ratio from 8.7 : 1 to 10.7 : 1 then the cutting height of the cylinder is 1.33mm, and To get the compression ratio from 10.7 : 1 to 11.3 : 1, then the cutting height cylinder is 0.31 mm. From the calculation of the Compression Ratio 1, 2, and 3, to achieve the final Compression Ratio value of 11.3: 1, a total block cutting of 1.64 mm is needed. And based on table B data, it can be seen that the compression ratio value of 11-12: 1 is using Pertamax Turbo or you can also use Shell V-Power and Performance 95. Therefore, it can be concluded that a 4-stroke motorcycle engine with a compression ratio of 11.3: 1 can use fuel with an octane rating of 95 with the type of fuel Pertamax Turbo, Shell V-Power, or Performace 95. With this compression ratio value, if you look at the ideal fuel table according to the compression ratio value, the octane value of the fuel increases to 95, and the fuel used is Pertamax Turbo, Shell V- Power, or Performance 95. The compression ratio value of 11.3 : 1 will be more in accordance with the specifications of the engine and also the needs of the user because the compression ratio value is not too high and not too low. Therefore this modified 4-stroke engine can be used for daily and long-distance purposes.

Abstract

The Implementation of co-firing on coal-fired power plants in Indonesia can reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions that affect climate change. This reduction in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions has the potential to avoid the carbon tax imposed on carbon-producing industries that exceed the upper limit of carbon emissions. The difference between the Carbon Emission Factor (????????????????2 ) in tons of CO2 e/MWh against the assigned Carbon Cap means the Carbon Economic Value (CEV) owned. CEV can be positive or negative depending on the difference between the results of the Carbon Cap. The opportunity for CEV to be traded depends on the amount of CEV that can be obtained from the co-firing. From this research, it was found that to get a good CEV, the minimum co-firing percentage is 7%. From the calculation results, the lowest value of ????????????????2 (????????????????) that can be achieved in the calculations in this paper is 0.993 tons/MWh at the co-firing percentage of 7%, while the maximum value of ????????????????2 (????????????) was 1.079 tons/MWh at 7% co-firing percentage. From this study, it was also found that the greater the percentage of co-firing used, the lower the value of ????????????????2 (????????????????) while the value of ????????????????2 (????????????) is getting  bigger.

Abstract

Welding is a technique that is widely used, such as in steel construction, the use of welding techniques can also save production costs. The extent of the use of this welding technique is due to buildings and machines that use jointing techniques to be lighter and simpler in the manufacturing process. TIG depends on the base metal to be welded. The filler rod is made of a metal whose composition is superior to that of the base metal. Because in the welding process there are some metal elements that are reduced or their structural transformations have an impact on reducing the mechanical properties of the metal. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of filler on the microstructure of ASTM A36 steel welded joints and to determine the stress factor of safety on ASTM A36 steel using solid work software. The results obtained from the tensile testing process on the ER 70S -4 filler welding with an average strain of 2.2mm and a maximum tensile strength of 20.0 kg/mm2, and in the ER70S-6 filler welding the average tensile strain test results obtained 3 .1mm and an average maximum tensile strength of 28.1 kg/mm2. From the results of the Solidworks software simulation, it is known that the maximum tensile strength for specimens with filler ER 70S – 4 rods No. 1 is 21.71 Kg/mm2, rods No. 2 is 15.999 Kg/mm2, rods No. 3 is 22.12 Kg/mm2, for specimens with filler ER 70S – 6 rods No. 1 of 26.76 Kg/mm2, rods No. 2 of 36.63 Kg/mm2, rods No. 3 of 21.17 Kg/mm2 after calculating the error the maximum tensile strength test and simulation results obtained The biggest error value for ER 70S – 4 filler is 3.07% and for ER 70S – 6 filler is 2.97%. In this research, it can be found that ASTM A36 steel with ER 70S – 4 and ER 70S – 6 fillers is superior to using ER 70S – 6 filler from the higher tensile test results and the undoubted microstructure results in every part.
