Abstract

Corrosion is a major cause of early failure in palm oil mill infrastructure in Aceh, Indonesia. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the corrosion rate of steel used in the palm oil mill industry and determine the remaining life of the steel. Round bars and plates made of steel were used as exposure samples. This sample was cleaned of impurities and ground with sandpaper to obtain a 600 grating, then washed with clean water and rinsed with strong liquid, then presented to the climate at the PTPN 1 Tanjung Seumantoh palm oil mill so that it could see the rate of steel erosion due to corrosion. For exposure, steel specimens are placed on racks, and weight measurements are taken once a month to determine corrosion rate values using the ASTM G50 standard. In addition, steel thickness measurements were also carried out in 2021 and 2022 to calculate the corrosion rate using the Standard API 570 standard.  Research results of the remaining life of the pipe on the wall tube is about 32 years. the remaining life for the generating pipe is about 29 years, and the remaining life for the heater pipe is about 11 years. from the calculation results obtained the longest remaining life is obtained on the wall pipe while the shortest remaining life of the pipe is found in the heater pipe because the pipe is always heated.

Abstract

Refrigerators are one of the common machines for Indonesian people. Refrigerators can be used to store foods and ingredients for longer shelf life. The temperature in the refrigerator and freezer is low because the heat is absorbed by the evaporator and then released into ambient air through the condenser. The heat transfer velocity from the condenser to ambient air depends on the convection heat transfer coefficient of air. This study was conducted experimentally by comparing the refrigerator's performance that use air-cooled condensers and water-cooled condensers. The equipment used is a refrigerator with a portable water bath. This study aims to know the temperature change speed in the storage room and freezer room, the temperature changes before and after the condenser was used, and the change of the temperature and pressure in refrigerant before and after the evaporator was used. The results showed refrigerator with a water-cooled condenser can give cooling process in the storage room faster, give freezing process in the freezer room faster, and enhance COP.

Abstract

Biodiesel predicted to replace diesel fuel in the future that comes from the transesterification process of plant oils, animal fats, or used oils. One of the potential raw materials is nyamplung seeds because they are scattered in Indonesia, easy to cultivate, and bear fruit throughout the year [1]. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of mixing pure diesel fuel and nyamplung biodiesel with the fuel composition B0, B20, B30, and B100 on the spray tip characteristics penetration, spray angle, and sauter mean diameter.This study focussed on simulation. The simulation method is carried out to predict the distribution and mean diameter of droplet using commercial fluent software. Fuel spray is carried out in free air with an injection pressure of 15 MPa, fuel temperature 28.2 ℃ and free air temperature 30.1 ℃. The spray process was taken at 6.25 ms and then the fuel spray characteristics were measured using the ImageJ application.The results of testing the fuel spray characteristics indicate that the amount of biodiesel content in the fuel is 20-100%. It can increase the length of spray tip penetration about 0.7-4.9%, a decrease in spray angle of 9.2-32.1% and the sauter mean diameter value increased by 20.1-84.6%. It caused by increasing the amount of biodiesel content in the fuel which results in an increase in the value of density, viscosity and surface tension of the fuel.

Abstract

Power plants are part of industrial facilities used to produce and generate electricity from various power sources; one of those is PLTGU (Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Gas dan Uap or Gas and Steam Power Plant). PLTGU is a combined cycle between PLTG and PLTU. It is necessary to achieve a high-capacity target for the PLTGU to increase the generator's efficiency. One way to increase the efficiency of gas and steam power plants is by optimizing heat transfer in the Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG). HRSG has several modules such as superheater, evaporator, economizer, and preheater. One that plays an essential role in absorbed high-temperature steam from the gas turbine is the superheater. The function of the superheater is to utilize the heat from the flue gas to reheat the fluid needed for the steam turbine. In this research, improvements of superheater were made with several fin variations at HRSG PLTGU. Variable of superheater refer to data on the layout of the HRSG PLTGU. Autodesk Inventor is used to modeling flue gas domain, tube, and fin. Additional of the fin has the purpose of optimizing heat transfer distribution in steam through a tube, such as an outlet temperature and efficiency of steam in tube superheater. The use of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) with ANSYS Fluent could use to determine the temperature distribution of the superheater. The most optimal efficiency and outlet temperature of variation fin is the annular fin variation compared to the rectangular and straight fin variations.

Abstract

One of the references for selecting materials in designing a machine component is its mechanical property which is tensile strength. However, the current tensile strength from the materials used in 3D printing products has not been standardized due to many parameters in the design and process that affect them. The selection of correct design and process parameters may result in the proper mechanical properties and minimize the time and amount of materials used during the printing process. The parameters expected to affect the mechanical properties are density and infill pattern. This study was conducted to observe how far the effect of them on the mechanical properties of 3D printing product's tensile strength. The specimen standard of tensile strength used was ASTM D638, while the tested infill pattern was Grid, Triangles, and Tri-Hexagon patterns, with the percentage of total infill density of 20%, 40%, and 60%. PLA (Polylactic Acid) was chosen as the material used in this study. The 3D print machine operated was 3D Print MakerGear M2 with the tensile testing machine of HTE Hounsfield. The results of this study concluded that the percentage of infill density 20%, 40%, and 60% with different infill patterns had different tensile strengths. The specimen with a Tri-Hexagon infill pattern and 60% density had the biggest tensile strength value, followed by the Triangles infill pattern and the smallest one was the Grid pattern with 20% density.

Abstract

The rapid growth of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology, or drone, has shown its popularity and has been significantly applied to various purposes today. Nevertheless, with all the sophistication of drones, many related topics are still attractive, especially when a drone is designed to carry out a cargo mission. Thus, in this research, the dynamic model of a Hexacopter drone to deliver goods belongs to PT Aero Terra Scan is being developed. This dynamic modeling aims to further the drone's development by modeling it in 2 cases: no-payload and with a payload of 5 kg cases. The dynamic model of this Hexacopter is based on flight dynamics, a field of science studied in Aeronautical Engineering, and is implemented using Simulink. Through the results of this research, several conclusions have been withdrawn: (1) The drone's unstable nature characteristic inherently, even though it is analyzed from the initial hover condition. Thus, the drone and its system as a whole can never be separated with the feedback control that made it can maneuver adequately. (2) Several technical parameters of this Hexacopter, including the geometry, mass, the moment of inertia, until the estimation of motor throttle is required to achieve its hover conditions, both in the no-payload case and with-payload of 5 kg case.  (3) The Hexacopter basic dynamic system model is based on the flight dynamics until its motion system control tuning through root locus map analysis using Simulink.

Abstract

Boiler efficiency calculation is crucial to determine the reliability of boiler performance. Generally, boiler efficiency is calculated by the heat loss method, which considers losses in the combustion process. The calculation consumes more time due to detailed procedure and analysis. This research aims to develop a multiple linear regression equation in predicting boiler efficiency based on performance test data from PLTU X unit 1. The equation was then validated with a classical assumption test, i.e. normality, linearity, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, autocorrelation, and hypothesis test. In addition, the equation was used to calculate the boiler efficiency at PLTU ABC (unit 1 & 2) and PLTU XYZ (unit 1). The results show that there is approximately 0.49% boiler efficiency discrepancy among equation and heat loss method calculations.
