Abstract

Studi ini mengevaluasi dampak koil pengapian balap pada mesin YMJET-FI 115 CC menggunakan bahan bakar campuran Etanol pada emisi gas buang. Menambahkan Etanol ke pertalite dalam komposisi 10%, 20%, 30%, dan 40% memengaruhi sifat kimia bahan bakar. Menggunakan koil standar dengan campuran Etanol (E10, E20, E30, dan E40) tidak mengubah emisi karbon monoksida (CO) secara signifikan, dengan level CO terendah pada 4,96% untuk E30. Sebaliknya, koil balap BRT dengan campuran ini menghasilkan perubahan penting, dengan level CO terendah pada 4,21% untuk E10. Emisi karbon dioksida (CO2) dengan koil standar tidak menunjukkan perubahan signifikan, dengan level CO2 terendah pada 9,7% untuk E30, sedangkan koil balap BRT menunjukkan perubahan signifikan, dengan level CO2 terendah pada 7,45% untuk E40. Emisi hidrokarbon (HC) dengan koil standar tetap stabil, dengan kadar HC terendah pada 452 ppm untuk E30, tetapi koil balap BRT menunjukkan perubahan signifikan, dengan kadar HC terendah pada 319,5 ppm untuk E10. Dampak campuran Etanol pada emisi gas buang kurang signifikan dengan koil standar, sedangkan koil balap BRT menunjukkan pengurangan emisi yang signifikan. Peningkatan ini disebabkan oleh pembakaran yang lebih sempurna yang dihasilkan dari resistansi dan voltase yang lebih baik. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa koil pengapian balap BRT secara efektif mengurangi emisi gas buang pada mesin YMJET-FI 115 CC dengan bahan bakar campuran Etanol.

Abstract

This study analyzes the performance of a regenerative braking system that integrates a supercapacitor with an induction motor. The method used was quantitative with an experimental approach through MATLAB Simulink simulation as an analysis tool. The system’s behavior is observed during both acceleration and deceleration phases. Results indicate that no energy recovery occurs during acceleration. However, during deceleration, significant fluctuations in current, voltage, and battery State of Charge (SOC) signal that energy is being recovered. When regenerative braking is applied, the SOC drops only 1% over 2.5 seconds, compared to a 3% drop without it, illustrating improved battery efficiency. The integration of a supercapacitor proves effective in absorbing current and voltage spikes, thereby reducing stress on the battery and enhancing its longevity. Nevertheless, the addition of the supercapacitor does not lead to a substantial improvement in overall energy recovery efficiency; in fact, a slight decrease is noted. These findings reveal the trade-offs involved in supercapacitor integration and serve as a valuable reference for optimizing future regenerative braking systems.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kinerja sistem pengereman regeneratif yang menggabungkan superkapasitor dengan motor induksi. Metode yang digunakan yaitu kuantitatif dengan pendekatan eksperimental melalui simulasi MATLAB Simulink sebagai alat bantu analisis. Hasil dari simulasi menunjukkan bahwa pemulihan energi tidak terjadi selama fase akselerasi, namun hal tersebut terjadi pada fase deselerasi terdeteksi adanya fluktuasi arus, tegangan, dan State of Charge (SOC) baterai yang mengindikasikan adanya proses pemulihan energi. Ketika sistem pengereman regeneratif diaktifkan, penurunan SOC hanya sebesar 1% dalam 2,5 detik, dibandingkan dengan penurunan 3% tanpa sistem tersebut, yang menandakan bahwa adanya peningkatan efisiensi pemakaian energi baterai. Superkapasitor terbukti mampu menyerap lonjakan arus dan tegangan dengan baik, sehingga membantu agar melindungi baterai dari stres yang berlebih. Namun, integrasi superkapasitor tidak secara signifikan meningkatkan efisiensi total pemulihan energi, bahkan menunjukkan sedikit penurunan. Temuan ini mengungkap manfaat sekaligus keterbatasan dari integrasi superkapasitor dalam sistem pengereman regeneratif, serta memberikan landasan bagi penelitian dan pengembangan sistem yang lebih optimal di masa depan.

Abstract

This research is based on the existence of vehicle conversion activities from combustion motorcycles to electricity. Several parts were replaced or customized during the conversion process. Therefore, an analysis of their quality was required to ensure that the converted vehicles were safe to drive, through a safety analysis. The purpose of this study is to analyze the forces that occur in the rear axle of the White Horse EVO 1 electric car, as well as evaluate the safety factor of the axle against static loads on the vehicle. The method used is descriptive quantitative with a field experiment approach equipped with manual calculations based on engineering mechanics. The calculation results showed that the safety factor values obtained on the left and right axes were 1.25 and 1.28 respectively. This value indicates that the shaft is in a safe condition for static use. The safety factor value obtained shows that the vehicle's wheel shaft is at the minimum limit of structural feasibility. Although the shaft is still relatively safe in static conditions, the safety factor value close to 1.0 indicates high material efficiency but with a very thin margin of safety. Penelitian dilatarbelakangi oleh adanya kegiatan konversi kendaraan dari motor bakar menjadi listrik. Terdapat beberapa suku cadang yang diganti atau custom pada proses konversi tersebut. Oleh karena itu, diperluka anlisis akan kualitasnya agar kendaraan yang dikonversi aman untuk dikendarai, yaitu melaui analisis keselamatan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis gaya-gaya yang terjadi pada poros roda belakang Mobil Listrik White Horse EVO 1, serta mengevaluasi faktor keselamatan (safety factor) poros terhadap beban statis pada kendaraan. Metode yang digunakan adalah kuantitatif deskriptif melalui pendekatan eksperimen lapangan yang dilengkapi perhitungan manual berbasis mekanika teknik. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa nilai safety factor yang diperoleh pada poros kiri dan kanan masing-masing yaitu sebesar 1,25 dan 1,28. Nilai tersebut menunjukkan bahwa poros berada dalam kondisi aman untuk digunakan secara statis. Nilai safety factor yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa poros roda kendaraan berada pada batas minimum kelayakan struktural. Meski poros masih tergolong aman dalam kondisi statis, nilai safety factor yang mendekati angka 1,0 menandakan efisiensi material tinggi, namun dengan margin keselamatan yang sangat tipis.
