Abstract

Metode ekstrapolasi Richardson, yang dinisbahkan kepada matematikawan Inggis Lewis Fry Richardson (1881-1953), adalah suatu metode akselerasi berurutan untuk meningkatkan kecepatan konvergensi barisan nilai pendekatan dari suatu konstanta. Jika suatu formula pendekatan N1(h) berlaku untuk semua ukuran langkah h>0 maka dapat disusun suatu formula pendekatan baru N2(h) yang memiliki galat pemotongan lebih baik dari galat pemotongan N1(h). Dari formula N2(h) selanjutnya dapat disusun formula N3(h) dengan galat pemotongan yang lebih baik dan seterusnya. Penyusunan formula pendekatan baru ini dilakukan dengan mengasumsikan bahwa galat pemotongan N1(h) mengikuti bentuk tertentu. Pada artikel ini dibahas pengujian peningkatan akurasi perhitungan turunan fungsi secara numerik menggunakan metode ekstrapolasi Richardson. Tiga formula turunan numerik yang diuji adalah formula maju, formula mundur, dan formula tengah. Dua formula pertama memiliki galat pemotongan O(h) sedangkan formula terakhir memiliki galat pemotongan O(h^2). Dari lima buah fungsi pengujian yang digunakan diperoleh hasil bahwa metode ekstrapolasi Richardson mampu meningkatkan akurasi pendekatan dari ketiga formula. Hasil terbaik diperoleh pada formula tengah terkait galat pemotongan yang hanya memuat pangkat genap.

Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji penggunaan teknik Digital Image Processing (Pemrosesan Citra Digital) untuk mengukur dan menganalisis distribusi diameter gelembung mikro pada Microbubble Generator tipe aliran swirl dengan variasi debit air (QL) dan debit udara (QG). Teknik pemrosesan citra digital dipilih karena dapat melakukan pengukuran secara otomatis, cepat, dan konsisten, dibandingkan metode konvensional yang sering kali lambat dan kurang akurat. Penelitian ini menggunakan MATLAB R2021a dengan Image Processing Toolbox untuk memproses video rekaman dari kamera Canon 1200D, yang dikonversi dan diekstraksi menjadi gambar dengan format TIF. Penelitian ini memfokuskan pada distribusi gelembung dalam kondisi debit air sebesar 24 lpm, 32 lpm, dan 40 lpm serta variasi debit udara dari 0,1 hingga 0,8 lpm. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pada debit air rendah (24 lpm), ukuran gelembung cenderung lebih kecil dan lebih terpusat, sedangkan pada debit air lebih tinggi (32 lpm dan 40 lpm), distribusi ukuran gelembung lebih merata dan bervariasi. Hasil akhir dari ekstraksi data image processing ini adalah distribusi diameter microgelembung yang dinyatakan dalam Probability Distribution Function (PDF) dan digunakan untuk mempresentasikan perbandingan disribusi dimensi gelembung udara yang dihasilkan oleh MBG. Tantangan yang dihadapi dalam penelitian ini meliputi validasi pada QG tinggi, di mana terdapat penyimpangan dalam hasil distribusi yang diakibatkan oleh kualitas pencitraan atau gangguan fisik.

Abstract

Tobacco plants have high economic value, but their productivity is often threatened by various diseases that can harm farmers. Lack of knowledge in diagnosing diseases accurately and limited access to agricultural experts are major obstacles in controlling diseases. To overcome this problem, an expert system based on the forward chaining method was developed that is able to diagnose tobacco plant diseases based on observed symptoms. This system matches symptoms with rules in the knowledge base to produce an accurate diagnosis. The test results showed that the system had 100% accuracy on the five tobacco plant data sets tested. This success shows the potential of expert systems as an effective tool to increase tobacco plant productivity and facilitate decision making in the field.

Abstract

Electricity distribution transformers have an important role in converting high voltage into low voltage suitable for consumers. These transformers operate continuously for 24 hours in the distribution of electricity. Especially when distributing extra high voltage, supervision is required to maintain safety and performance. The Reliability, Availability, Maintainability (RAM) method is used to analyze the effectiveness and potential damage to the transformer. The analysis results show that in January, the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) was 372 hours with 2 failures, while in June only 1 failure. Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) in January 1.03 hours with 2 repairs, while in June only 1 repair with 0.8 hours. Failure Rate January 0.269%, June 0.139%. Transformer reliability over the last 6 months is 99.94% and will decrease. Availability in the last 6 months is 99.94%, but will decrease. Maintainability tends to be lower and will decrease further. The analysis recommends replacing the transformer in the next 1,77 years as the ease of repair is decreasing. Although generally used for 5-10 years, the level of ease of repair affects the effective use in electricity distribution.

Abstract

The power system must be planned and operated with an estimate of the optimal photovoltaic output power. Direct sunlight can be converted into electrical energy using photovoltaic (PV) technology. The amount of electrical energy produced by solar modules can be influenced by the amount of sunlight it receives. This study discusses the simulation of the prediction of the output power of a photovoltaic system and boost converter with MPPT, in the next 1 hour using the backpropagation artificial neural network (ANN) method approach. In this study, the learning rate used is 0.01 and the minimum error target is 0.001 with 5 predetermined network architectures. The best performance prediction results with the smallest Mean Squared Error (MSE) value were obtained with the backpropagation neural network structure of the 4-6-1 model which was almost close to its actual value, but further research is still needed so that the prediction results can be even better.
