Abstract

This research was intended to investigate the effect of the geometry and blockage ratio of the flame connector on the combustion characteristics of wood pellets on a wood pellet stove. Combustion characteristics observed in this research included flame visualization, flame temperature, specific fuel consumption, and corrected-specific fuel consumption. Two types of geometry were used as a flame connector, i.e. disk and cone; for each geometry, the blockage ratio was varied at 0,6, 0,7, and 0,8. The blockage ratio was varied by change the number of the circular hole on the flame connector. Combustion in wood pellet stove without flame connector was then used as a comparison. The flame visualization test was applied to find out the color and dimensions of the flame, which was then used to determine the temperature on this flame. The water boiling test method version 4.2.3 was used to determine specific fuel consumption and corrected specific fuel consumption. The combustion chamber of the wood pellet stove has a dimension of 15 cm diameter and 20 cm height. Wood pellet supply used intermittent - continuous feeding system with a mass flow rate of 16 gram/minute. Flame visualization shows that stove with cone flame connector has a larger flame dimension and flame dimension decreases with the increasing of blockage ratio. The highest flame temperature occurred near the outlet of the combustion chamber, the same conditions were observed in all variations experiment.  The application of flame connector involves greater specific fuel consumption due to longer boiling time. However, a correction factor by considering the amount of evaporated water results from corrected specific fuel consumption of wood pellet stove with cone flame connector which is smaller compared to the other type of wood pellet stove.

Abstract

Biogas from digester consists primarily of methan (CH4) and carbondioxyde (CO2). Trace components that are often present in biogas are water vapor (H2O) , hydrogen sulfide (H2S),hydrocarbons (HC), ammonia (NH3, oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen (N2). In order to improve the quality of biogas, a cleaning process to remove the trace components and an upgrading process to adjust the calorific value are needed. A number of techniques have been developed to remove the trace components from biogas. In this experiment, however, chemical absorption of CO2 and H2S by solid zeolite in a plastic bag was experimentally investigated. The solid zeolite was activated by heat treatment and KOH. Absorption characteristics were examined. Test results revealed that the solid zeolite used were effective in adsorbed CO2 and H2S in biogas, creating CH4 enriched fuel. Absorption capability was transient in nature. With regular replacement or regeneration of used solid zeolite, upgraded biogas can be maintained. This technique proved to be promising in upgrading biogasquality.Keywords: KOH compound, calorific value of biogas, zeolite.

Abstract

One of the renewable energy is biogas. Biogas has a great chance in its development. Biogas resulted from fermentation process is consists of: CH4 (55-75%), CO2 (25-45%), H2 (1- 5%), N2 (0-0.3%), O2 (0.1-0.5%), and H2S (0-3%). If biogas is cleared from polluter well it will have the same characteristics with natural gas. Components of the polluter water (H2O), hydrogen and as sulfide (H2S), carbon dioxide (CO2) and some particulates should be eliminated to achieve pipeline quality gas. In order to understand how the influence of the levels of CO2 and N2 of the methane combustion characteristic. The observation was conducted experimentally by burning a mixture of stoichiometry (methane gas and air) with a percentage of CO2 and N2 in the transparent fuel square-shaped space with dimensions 500 x 200 x 10 mm. The results showed that the levels of CO2 and N2 affect the combustion process, it causing the blue flame to be fade.It indicated the combustion is not perfect and the levels of CO2 and N2 inhibits the collision reaction between molecules of methane gas and air molecules. The result also showed that CO2 reduce the flame speed. Keywords: energy, CO2, N2, combustion characteristic, methane gas, air

Abstract

In this paper, the effect of welding parameters on the shear strength of Al-PVC hybrid structures was discussed. This Research developed welding parameters in the form of Plunge Depth, heating time, and clamping frame materials. By these different parameters would result in different shear strength of welded materials. Following optimization of the process, a detailed comparison of the properties and microstructures of two different materials (meranti wood and ASTM A36 Steel) would affect to different values of thermal conductivity. The Aluminum used was Al 1100, which was welded by using a friction stir spot welding method with Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). In this study, by the different heating times, the shear test was carried out with the ASTM D3163 standard. In this study, it was found that the maximum temperature of Aluminum occurs during the 2nd second of the welding process and then decreased in the 5th second until 60th second. However, the optimum shear strength found at 20th second. Following heat transfer and degradation materials, the 2mm plunge depth has a higher temperature and higher shear strength than 1,5mm plunge depth. Differences in the response of the two depth were attributed to the difference in mechanical interlocking. This study found that the ASTM A36 clamping frame maximum shear load of 182.4 N is higher than meranti wood frame of 125.5 N. Differences in these value are attributed to the differences of the thermal conductivity, which meranti wood had a lower thermal conductivity than ASTM A36. These have findings significant implications for the commercial application of welding hybrid structures. The best way to take advantage of the benefit of AL-PVC Structure Hybrid for friction stir spot welding would appear to be 20 second heating time, 2mm plunge depth with ASTM clamping frame.

Abstract

The objective this research is to investigate the effect of microwave irradiation power on the combustion characteristics of Jatropha curcas oil. Jatropha Curcas oil is one of alternative fuel. Some advantages of this oil are environmentally friendly, not included in food which can be consumed and renewable. But it can not be use directly because it has a long chemical chain with several double bonds and the viscosity and flash point are very high. One method to improve the combustion characteristics of Jatropha curcas oil, is to irradiate this oil with microwaves. This is due to the energy of microwaves can be absorbed by water, fats and sugars that can affect the Jathropa Curcas oil. The microwave frequency used is 2.45 GHz. Microwave irradiation power is given to the jatropha oil are 119 watt, 252 watt, 385 watt, 539 watt and 700 watt, and the time given 15 minute. And droplet diameter used is 1.5 - 2 mm. From this research was found that microwave can change the viscosity, visualization and dimension of the flame, increase the burning rate, percentage of microexplosion, accelerate the appearance and prolong the duration of microexplosion.Keywords: microwave irradiation, combustion characteristic,droplet
