DETECTING CLASSIFIER-COAL MILL DAMAGE USING A SIGNAL VIBRATION ANALYSIS

A classifier plays a crucial role in the cement industry. It is in charge of separating coal that has been smoothened out and is ready to be burned although the coal is still rough after going through the grinding process. It takes a long time to burn coal that is not perfectly processed with a classifier. Therefore, it will reduce the amount of cement production, and the factories will release more energy. The closed arrangement and the number of components in the unit classifier requires a sophisticated method to detect damage that occurs early. Vibration analysis is a method that has been effectively employed in detecting the initial damage that occurs to the engine, especially the classifier. This study was aimed at detecting the location of the damage occurring in the classifier by using a vibration signal analysis and by measuring the magnitude of vibration and presenting it to the frequency domain (spectrum) form using Fast Fourier Transform. Engine condition assessment referred to ISO 10816-3 standard in velocity and displacement modes. Based on data spectrum analysis, the dominant damage laid in the unbalanced rotor. Spectrum characteristics of the damage appeared to be in the spectrum line worth 438.01 μm at a 3.5-Hz frequency (1X) radially. This analysis proved to be supported by the decrease in vibration value to 18.65 μm after balancing the Classifier rotor

CONDENSOR DESIGN ANALYSIS WITH KAYS AND LONDON SURFACE DIMENSIONS

The use of condensers in air conditioning units is more common in large-capacity units than in ones with a smaller capacity. Air conditioning provides comfort and freshness to an air-conditioned room. It should be noted that each room has a different heat load, which affects the specifications of the condenser used. The accuracy with which appropriate condenser specifications are determined affects the performance of the air conditioner. Thus, considering how important condenser needs are, it is necessary to design condensers with optimal performance, which adhere to proven standards. To achieve this, the design of a condenser should be based on the results of the smallest condenser dimensions of three types of surfaces, as they are intended for a limited place. This condenser design uses the standard dimensions of the Kays and London charts. Data is collected by measuring the results of temperature and enthalpy of a refrigerant at desuperheating and condensation, inlet air temperature, outlet air temperature, refrigerant mass flow rate, and air mass flow rate. The results of the compact condenser design are based on existing data, which is obtained from the smallest design results. The result uses the type of Surface CF-8.72(c) with a heat transfer area of 0.259 m2, a total tube length of 9.5 m, crossing tube length 0.594 m and a pressure drop of 3778 Pascal (Pa) on the side of a tube. This design fulfills the stipulated requirements, as the pressure drop is less than the specified maximum limit in most units
