Abstract

Wind is a renewable energy that is used for electrical energy in several countries. Indonesia is one of the countries that utilizes wind energy for electrical energy. The potential for wind in Indonesia is located in coastal areas. To apply the potential for wind in urban areas is very difficult because the wind speed is very low. From this problem, this paper presents a windmill using fiberglass. Fiberglass is an alloy or mixture as a composite material which has the characteristics of light weight, easy shape, and low cost. The aim is to analyze the mechanical properties of fiberglass composite materials in the application of blades or vanes in savionus windmills. This study uses the hand lay-up method and the mechanical testing method for tensile strength and impact which aims to determine the material properties of the blade of the savonius windmill. Based on the tensile test, the average tensile strength of random fiberglass composite and 200gr 2-layer woven roving was 49.52 MPa with an average modulus of elasticity of 21.88 Gpa. For the Charphy impact test, the average impact strength is 0.035 joules / mm2 with the energy absorbed is 0.7046 joules.

Abstract

This study discusses the composition of the material contained in the used piston material and compares the strength value of each variation of Ti-B percentage by violence testing. The method used in metal casting is Gravity Casting which uses only gravity of the earth. In the manufacture of this recycled piston includes several stages of the process of working method with Sand Casting mold and its test. Among them are pattern planning, raw material preparation, pattern making, pasri printing, mold making with CO2 gas, aluminium metal smelting, Ti-B input into melt kitchen, casting of liquid metal, casting specimen and final process. The result of composition testing of main alloy material is 84,19 % Al and 10,8306 % Si. The result of hardness testing with gravity casting method on the percentage of Ti-B 0,1% and 0,5% using sand casting mold have hardness number 52,62 VHN and 71,76 VHN. The percentage of addition of Ti-B element greatly affect the mechanical properties of the material, so that more Ti-B element, then the material will have hard mechanical properties
