Pemanfaatan Energi Gas Buang Motor Diesel Stasioner Untuk Pemanas Air

Exhaust gas from a diesel engine is having a big deal of energy. In a stationer diesel engine, the enthalpy of water will be increased by flowing the water in a spiral pipe which is located in the exhaust manifold of the engine. Using copper pipes in this heat exchanger, it's efficiency is found up to 69,5 %

Pengaruh Naphtalene Terhadap Perubahan Angka Oktan Bensin Unjuk Kerja Motor Dan Gas Buangnya

Octane number is a reference to measure quality of gasoline as the fuel of gasoline engine. Gasoline with higher octane number gives less tendency to knocking. Naphtalene is a chemical solution that gives positive effect to rise the octane number. Octane number of gasoline can be measured by CFR engine. Using a motor Daihatsu CB-23, the best power obtained by using a grain of naphtalene (3,75 grams) for 3 litres of gasoline and ignition timing is 12° before TDC. Using this ratio, CO & CO2 that are produced in the exhaust gas is nearly the ame with pure gasoline usge but less HC and O2 are produced

Effectiveness of Indonesian Essential Oil Mixture of Lemongrass, Cananga, and Patchouli in Relaxation Through Inhalation: a Clinical Test on Healthy Woman with High Potential for Stress

Relaxation is one of many mechanisms for coping with stress. One of the most widely used methods for relaxation is aromatherapy with the application of essential oils. Known for their therapeutic benefits, essential oils can be extracted from various Indonesian native herbs such as lemongrass (sereh wangi or Cymbopogon winterianus), cananga or ylang-ylang (kenanga or Canarium odoratum), and patchouli (nilam or Pogostemon cabin). This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a mixture of Indonesian essential oil made of lemongrass, cananga, and patchouli extracts. Experiment was conducted by asking a number of subjects to inhale the oil mixture and assessing its effectiveness in terms of psychological relaxation by using Visual Analog Scale or VAS) and of physical relaxation by examining the subjects’ blood pressure (MAP), pulse frequency, and breathing frequency. The result was then compared with that of lavender oil and with the control group. The study was conducted on 60 healthy women through single-blind clinical trials (before and after) using the “intent to treat” approach, followed by a startle test. Participants were divided into three groups: (1) 20 participants who were treated with Indonesian essential oil mixture, (2) 20 participants who were treated with lavender oil, and (3) 20 participants who served as the control group. Psychological relaxation measurement showed that Indonesian essential oil mixture produced the same degree of effectiveness as lavender oil and the control groups did, although both treatments tended to produce better results than the control group did. However, physical relaxation measurement showed that Indonesian essential oil mixture produced a higher degree of effectiveness than lavender oil and tended to produce a better result than the control group did, especially in terms of blood pressure based on MAP scores.    &nbsp

Peningkatan Unjuk Kerja Motor Diesel Dengan Penambahan Pemanas Solar

The imperfect combustion process will be a problem in the development effort of diesel engine's performance. Nonhomogen air-fuel mixing process is one of the factors which cause the imperfect combustion. By heating up the diesel fuel up to a certain temperature before it goes through the high pressure injection pump will lower its density and viscosity. Therefore, when injected in the combustion chamber, it will formed smaller droplets of fuel spray which result in a more homogenious air-fuel mixture. Also by using higher temperature will make the diesel fuel easier to ignite in order to compensate the limited time which is available in high speed operating conditions. Diesel fuel heating can improve the combustion process to increase the power and decrease the fuel consumption optimally

Peningkatan Performance Motor Bensin 4 Tak 3 Silinder Yang Menggunakan Bahan Bakar Gas Dengan Penambahan Blower Dan Sistem Injeksi

Replacing from gasoline to gas fuel (BBG) for automotive, in fact, decreases the motorâs power. By adding some equipments such as blower (+ inverter) and BBG injection, the pressure and density of BBG and air mixture into combustion chamber will be higher. This can make the power of combustion engine be equal even bigger than using gasoline

Pengaruh Suhu Dan Tekanan Udara Masuk Terhadap Kinerja Motor Diesel Tipe 4 Ja 1

One of the factor that influences optimation of performance of diesel engine is an imperfect combustion in the combustion chamber. To optimize performance of this engine it is necessary to do modification by increasing air temperature and air pressure into combustion chamber. A change of inlet air temperature in the combustion chamber will effect the air density, so will influence the amount of air in the combustion chamber. The increasing air pressure into the combustion chamber will help the mixture to reach its combustion condition faster. So that combustion deceleration, specially in the high rotation speed condition can be avoided. The result of the research showed that the optimal condition can be achieved at the temperature 50°C and the pressure 3 bars
