Abstract

Starting from events that often have an impact on reducing the age of ships as well as cases of fishermen who often replace damaged ship propellers caused by corrosion. Corrosion that occurs in the propeller shaft of the ship results in material damage. Therefore, the author wants to update the ship's propeller by using copper material compared to brass so that a stronger material is used as a propeller. The results of the research on testing copper and brass show a test analysis. The results of the stress and strain tests on brass and copper materials yield almost the same results. With the same material quality, brass material is recommended to be used as a propeller because the price is cheaper compared to copper material.

Abstract

A Boiler Feed Pump (BFP) is a very important equipment in Steam Power Plants (PLTU), which functions to pump water from the feedwater tank to the boiler drum. If the BFP experiences a disturbance, the PLTU will experience derating or shutdown. For one year, there were repeated disruptions to BFP, causing the plant to experience an unplanned shutdown (Forced Outage/FO). Analysis of disturbance data was carried out to find the root cause of the problem of repeated disturbances in BFP, using the Root Cause Failure Analysis (RCFA) method. RCFA results show that the cause of repeated interference in BFP is a problem with the Speed Control Actuator which uses an Analog Electric Actuator (Motorized) as a Hydraulic Coupling drive. The main disadvantages of the Analog Electric Actuator system are low response speed, easily changing settings, motor protection often fails and the module often hangs. The solution to this problem is to carry out a retrofit to replace the BFP actuator speed control from an Analog Electric Actuator system to a Digital Electro Pneumatic system.. The retrofit was successfully performed on BFP 1A and proved to be able to operate normally without interruption during the period of operation. After a successful retrofit was performed on BFP 1A, the retrofit was also performed on all other BFPs, namely BFP 2B, 2A, and 1B. Overall, retrofit proved to be able to overcome the weaknesses of the Analog Electric Actuator system and improve the reliability of the power plant. Financially, retrofits eliminate corrective maintenance costs of actuator replacement and eliminate potential plant losses due to lost production opportunities.

Abstract

Solar energy is the largest source of energy on earth. Every day, heat is emitted to our earth, with a capacity of 1.7 x 1014 kilowatts (kW), or equivalent to burning 6 million tons of new rock every second. Solar cells (photovoltaic) PV is a semi-conductor technology that was developed as a power generator. The basic principle of this PV origin is the opposite originating from an LED (light emitting diode) which replaces electric power into light or can be said to be identical to a light diode (photodiode) p-n junction or (p-n junction). The function of the solar cell is to charge the battery, where the battery functions as a power source to turn on the system on the equipment used. The sunlight enters the solar cell which is converted into electrical energy and the energy is stored in the battery to store electrical energy when sunlight is available, connected to the USB driver power bank module and the micro USB module. The USB driver power bank module can function as an output when charging the cellphone.

Abstract

Unbalance and structural looseness are problems in industrial machines that can amplify the machine's vibration level if they occur simultaneously. Experimental study was done by comparing rotor balancing and machine’s structural repair methods in dealing with unbalance and structural looseness problems. The investigated equipment in this study consists of rotor and disk which represent center hung machines in industries such as fans, blowers, pumps and others. A comparison was made between the rotor balancing and structural repairs under the same initial problem conditions and vibration levels. The result of this study indicate that structural repair reduced machine vibration at higher level compared to rotor balancing. Even when the specimens were subjected to unbalance problems again, the increase in machine vibration level, which was previously improved by structural repairmen is not excessively high.

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. Brakes are a very important part of the car, good brake maintenance is very important because it involves the safety of the passengers. The brakes needed on a car are those that can work well and can be trusted, have sufficient braking power and besides that the brakes must be easy to adjust and check. The kinetic energy lost from moving objects 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 objects, literature studies and measuring objects directly. 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 wheel, the permissible frictional force on the asphalt, and the maximum force on the upper and lower springs. After several calculation steps, the results of the normal force on the rear wheel are 2873.9 N. The permissible frictional force on the asphalt is 712.17 N. The maximum force of the upper spring is 50.98 N, and the maximum force of the lower spring is 80. ,8 N
