Abstract

This paper deals with the exhaust emission of plastic fuel on single cylinder diesel engine. The objectives of this research are to analyze the fuel consumption and the emission characteristic of a single cylinder diesel engine that are using plastic fuel compared to usage of ordinary diesel that are available in the market. This paper describes the setups and the procedures for the experiment which is to analyze the emissions characteristics and fuel consumption of diesel engine due to usage of the both fuels. The experiment used diesel engine with no load which means no load exerted on it. Detail studies about the experimental setup and components have been done before the experiment started. The obtained data indicated that the diesel fuel is better than waste plastic disposal fuel in term of fuel consumption, emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2). The successful of the project have been stated which is engine is able to run with plastic fuel but the engine needs to run by using diesel fuel first, then followed by plastic fuel and finished with diesel fuel as the last fuel usage before the engine turned off.

Abstract

The development of Renewable Energy (RE) has become one of the priorities that has been promoted by various governments around the world, as a step towards implementing green energy in accordance with the Paris Agreement. The sea as one of the largest parts of the territory in Indonesia must be managed for its energy because it has quite large energy potential. One of them is ocean currents. The Sunda Strait is a very strategic strait and has ocean currents that have the potential to develop energy to be used as a source of electrical energy. Therefore the development of a suitable turbine design is urgently needed in this strait area. In previous research the simulation and experimental work have confirmed that the Savonius rotor can be worked in the low speed marine current. This is will be relevant with Sunda Strait condition that have current 0.4 – 1 m/s. The experiment also shows that the rotor provided torque 0.36 Nm with 11.97 RPM therefore can generated 0.45 Watt

Abstract

This is The Stirling engine is one of the alternative power generators that can be implemented at this time. The power generated by the Stirling engine can be used as a generator of electrical energy or for automotive applications. This study aims to determine the optimum performance of the stirling engine in power and torque by providing variations in temperature. The test temperature was carried out by providing energy from LPG fuel with varying temperatures, namely 200˚C, 300˚C, 400˚C, 500˚C, 600˚C and 700˚C. The data taken is RPM, power and torque. From the test results, for 200˚C is 16 W, for 300˚C is 30.66 W, for 400˚C is 45.72 W, for 500˚C is 67.5 W, for 600˚C is 81.06 W, for 700˚C is 105.27 W. In this study, a variant of changing the weight of the flywheel was also carried out. The test results show that an increase in flywheel weight of 1 kg causes an increase in RPM of 22.7% and power of 22.7%.
