HYDRODYNAMIC AND BOUSSINESQ WAVE MODELING FOR THE N219 AMPHIBIOUS AIRCRAFT SEAPLANE DOCK DEVELOPMENT PLAN IN PANJANG ISLAND

The flight test of N219 Amphibious aircraft will be targeted in 2003/2024. For flight tests, these aircraft need a seaplane dock. One of the potential locations for the seaplane dock is Panjang Island at Seribu Islands. This study aims to know the characteristic of hydrodynamic and wave conditions and to determine whether Panjang Island is suitable for the seaplane dock. This study uses a modeling method with MIKE 21 FM HD-SW module and MIKE 21 Boussinesq Wave (BW) module. The bathymetry data were obtained from the Indonesian Navy Hydrographic and Oceanographic Center (Pushidrosal), tide data is generated from Tide Model Driver (TMD), wave and wind data from ECMWF. The result of surface elevation validation between hydrodynamic modeling and TMD is 92%. During the west monsoon and spring conditions, the difference in the largest and lowest current velocity is quite large (0.018-0.199 m/s), on the other hand, when the tides are in neap conditions (0.008-0.144 m/s). Meanwhile, during the east monsoon and spring conditions, the difference in the largest and lowest current velocities is quite large (0.02-0.193 m/s), on the other hand, when the tides are in neap conditions (0.008-0.146 m/s). The maximum wave height resulting from the 50-year return period waveform modeling between 1.139 - 1.474 m. Meanwhile, the significant wave heights between 0.679 - 0.741 with a significant wave period of 13.45 seconds. In general, the current and wave conditions of the two locations are suitable for the construction of the seaplane dock, except that the dominant wave heights are still above the requirements.

ANALYSIS OF HEAT RELEASE RATE IN ENGINE ROOM FIRES OF 300 GT FERRY RO-RO PASSENGER BY USING WATER MIST SYSTEM AND CO2 SYSTEM

Based on statistical data in recent years, there are still quite a number of ship accidents due to fires, including on passenger ships. The water mist system is a fire suppression system that allows it to be used in the engine room with the advantage that it can keep the heat production rate low during the extinguishing process and can be operated earlier than the CO2 system. The research is conducted by using fire dynamic simulator in the engine room of a 300 GT ferry ro-ro passenger to compare the heat release rate of fire without an extinguishing system, an existing CO2 system, and a water mist system. The result shows that the CO2 fire suppression system reduces the heat release rate more rapidly to the decay phase at 375 seconds while the water mist takes more than 900 seconds. However, the fully developed phase of the water mist suppression system occurs more quickly than CO2 because the sprinklers are activated shortly after a fire occurs. Unlike water mist, the CO2 system is activated at 60 seconds so that the pre-combustion, growth, flashover, and fully developed phases are at the same HRR and time as the natural one.

ASSAY AND GRAPHITE FURNACE- ATOMIC ABSORBANCE SPECTROMETRY ACCURACY FOR PALLADIUM CONTENT ANALYSIS

Palladium is a member of the expensive Platinum Group Metals as it is indispensable for various applications of modern technology. Due to the very small number of these elements in nature, high-sensitivity analytical methods and devices are required for accurate PGM measurement. The current study aims to determine the accuracy level of the Graphite Furnace-Atomic Absorbance Spectrometry device for palladium analysis after pre-concentration through the assaying process. The studied samples were two in-house standard reference samples with stream sediment and ultramafic rock matrices. Due to the lack of certified reference material containing certain palladium compositions, the degree of accuracy was tested by the spiking method. The detection limit for Pd in this study was 11.79 ppb. Pd content in the stream sediment (17 ppb) is much lower than of the ultramafic sample (290 ppb), implying PGM association to ultramafic rock naturally. Almost all measurements have good accuracy according to spike recovery between 80-120%. Inaccurate addition process and inappropriate calibration range most probably lead to inaccuracy.

DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF SITE VICINITY AREA FOR PREPARATION IN WEST KALIMANTAN NPP SITE

The potential risk of radioactive release to the environment and surrounding population can occur when there is a nuclear emergency, and nuclear preparedness planning is required for disaster mitigation. In preparedness planning, data is needed, one of which is demographic characteristics. Demographic information in site preparation can produce appropriate and efficient policy formulations because the number and density of the population, as well as the susceptible population, are known. The method used is secondary data collection, data verification, data processing, mapping, and analysis. This study aims to determine the demographic characteristics of the site vicinity. The study results show that the population density in 5 km radius area is 177 people/km2. In 2018, the total population was 5,199 people, the percentage of the male population was 50.3%, and the female population was 49.7%. The population aged ?20 years was 63.4%, 5-19 years old was 29.7%, and aged 0-4 was 6.9%. The projected population in 2047 is 6,523 people. The assumption is that in the event of a nuclear emergency, the emergency response considers the susceptible population. Evacuation of residents related to the emergency response can be carried out through 2 routes, namely through the South Singkawang District to the West Singkawang area, which is about 30 km from the site or through the Sungai Raya District to the Sungai Kunyit area, which is of about 26 km from the site.

MICROSTRUCTURE AND OXIDATION BEHAVIOR OF THE OXIDE DISPERSION STRENGTHENED STAINLESS STEEL 316L WITH ZIRCONIA DISPERSION

Synthesis of the oxide dispersion sODS steels was performed by dispersing 0.5 wt % zirconia to the stainless steel SS 316L by the powder metallurgy method. The ball milling process was carried out for pre-alloying the elements continued with the consolidation performed by the compaction and sintering process using the APS (Arc Plasma Sintering). Analysis of microstructure was performed by observing the morphology, identify the phase and evaluate the oxide distribution. An oxidation test was carried out at 700oC for 8 hours using the MSB (Magnetic Suspension Balanced) apparatus to evaluate the primary oxidation curve. The same grain fineness consists of 2 dominant phases, so the presence of an austenitic phase and a ferritic phase has been analyzed from the X-Ray Diffraction pattern. The homogeneous distribution of zirconia was observed, followed by improvements in mechanical properties, which could be identified by hardness testing. The parabolic phenomenon oxidation curve was explained by the excellent high-temperature oxidation behaviour of the ODS steel, followed by the formation of ZrO2 oxide protective thin layer.

THE EFFECT OF DIMETHYL ETHER (DME) AS LPG SUBSTITUTION ON HOUSEHOLD STOVE: MIXTURE STABILITY, STOVE EFFICIENCY, FUEL CONSUMPTION, AND MATERIALS TESTING

DME has characteristics similar to LPG so that the storage and handling are not so different from LPG. DME could be used as a solvent that can extract typical types of rubber/polymer material. The aims and objectives of this study are to determine the effect of DME/LPG (100/0, 80/20, 50/50, 30/70, 20/80) on the stability of the DME/LPG mixture on the stove and also to observe the effect on several rubber materials/polymers on stove accessories. The study reveals that the usage of a DME/LPG mixture between 20/80 - 30/70 does not require a replacement of any substitute materials but only requires minor modifications to the stove. However, at a higher DME composition, the use of the fuel needs to replace the seal that is resistant to DME. It occurs due to the change of the gas composition when it is used.

DEVELOPING SUPPLY CHAIN NETWORK WITH PIECEWISE LINEAR TRANSPORTATION COST FOR A SMALL-AND-MEDIUM ENTERPRISE (SME) IN CILEGON

This study proposed a supply chain network for determining suppliers’ location in which the transportation costs are a piecewise linear function. The supply chain network consists of a production facility, suppliers, and customers. These types of costs are found in the fields of transportation, logistics, and purchasing discount. First, the supply chain network is formulated as the mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) because piecewise linear transportation cost makes the model non-linear. Then, the model is transformed into a mixed-integer programming (MIP) model using the convex-combination method to overcome this nonlinearity. The model was used for solving the problem faced by a small and medium enterprise (SME) in Cilegon. The MIP was solved using the CPLEX software. Sensitivity analysis was carried to provide the SME with several alternatives in handling the suppliers’ location problem

APPLICATION OF TEMPERATURE CONTROL SYSTEMS AT THE CATALYST ACTIVATION STEP IN THE METHANOL TESTPLANT

Catalyst activation is an important step in methanol synthesis process, achieved by the reduction of CuO precursor producing Cu0 active sites. Testplant’s temperature operation shall be maintainted at 220°C in order to maximize the CuO reduction process in the catalyst activation step. A temperature control system shall be applied in methanol testplant to maintain the temperature during reduction process, due to sensitivity of reduction process to temperature variation and possibility of disturbance such as change in gas flow rate which could affects the operating temperature. Temperature control systems are tested by using step response at the desired setpoint, which is 220°C at pre-heater and reactor and 60°C at sampling line. The tests are conducted by changing the setpoint value at temperature controller and previously stable flow gas in the system (disturbance rejection). The temperature control system proved to be able to response well during the test. In the end, methanol is produced from syngas, indicating catalyst activation success.
