Abstract

A heat exchanger is a device used to exchange or change the temperature of a fluid by exchanging heat with another fluid. One of the heat exchangers is a surface type condenser where the steam is separated from the cooling water, the steam is outside the pipes while the cooling water is in the pipes at PT. SOCIMAS. At PT. SOCIMAS, the condenser is part of the main cooling system which functions to condense steam into water and maintain the efficiency and work cycle of the turbine high. For this reason, this final project report focuses on condenser analysis. The results obtained from this final project are the value of the inner convection coefficient of 4056.6827 W/(m2.K) and the outer convection coefficient of 97414.18W/(m2.K) . value of heat transfer rate and effectiveness (ε) on the condenser PT. SOCIMAS obtained a heat transfer rate of 153.6001264 MW. While the effectiveness (ε), obtained 0.99571 % This shows that the condition of the condenser is quite good, because the steam can go to the condenser, so that the rate of heat transfer and the effectiveness of the condenser are able to condense the steam into liquid.

Abstract

A hydroelectric power plant (PLTA) uses the flow of water as a source of energy. Evaluating the output of hydropower facilities, including the optimal height of the waterfall, turbine torque, electrical power, generator power, and generated efficiency, was the aim of the study. This study intends to investigate the power, torque, and efficiency that may be produced by a hydroelectric power plant with a whirlpool-type turbine, as well as how the height of falling water influences the operation of the plant. The experiment in this study measures three different waterfall heights with five different blade configurations. The study on the hydropower prototype involved three trials that collected data on torque, power, efficiency, waterfall height, and water discharge. The PLTA Prototype's best potential head in Test 3 was determined to be 0.01143, with a height of 0.67 meters, no sluice, and a diameter of 0.0625 meters. The lowest water outflow was discovered at a head of 0.55 meters with a water debit of 0.01036. The third attempt, which featured a sluice opening with a diameter of 0.0625 meters and a height of 0.67 meters (head), used the most water power in the experiment. The testing yielded the following results: 75.13 watts of water power, 5.16 watts of generator power, 0.233 N.m. of torque, 2.63 watts of turbine power with a generator load 3.73 watts without one, and 6.87% efficiency. Data gathered from the hydropower prototype's operation can be used to construct testing instruments for use in laboratories
