Nanofluida merupakan dua campuran fase dimana fase yang biasanya cairan dan fase yang terdispersi terdiri dari nanopartikel padat yang sangat halus, berukuran lebih kecil daripada 100 nm. Penelitian dalam bidang nanofluida banyak dilakukan khususnya dalam aplikasinya sebagai pendingin dalam sistem penukar panas (heat exchanger). Nanofluida memiliki sifat–sifat yang berbeda dengan fluida dasar…
Ilmu pengetahuan murni dan ilmu pengetahuan terapan merupakan dua hal yang saling berhubungan satu sama lain. Ilmu teapan tidak akan bias berkembang tanpa adanya ilmu pengtahuan murni, dan sebaliknya ilmu pengetahuan murni membutuhkan ilmu ttterapan untuk menyediahkan fasilitas dan peralatan penelitian yang akurat. Fisika terapan merupakan ilmu pengetahuan yang penting pagi pembaca …
The study focuses on advancing dissimilar metal welding techniques. The intense heat during welding leads to thermal expansion or contraction of the metal upon cooling, resulting in residual stresses in the weld area. Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) is employed to alleviate these residual stresses. The research investigates the impact of PWHT on the mechanical and physical properties of joints …
One of the things that affects the water distribution process is energy loss or head loss. Several conditions have an influence on fluid flow losses, such as friction on the pipe walls, bends, enlargement or reduction in the pipe, and other variables so that the pressure in the pipe decreases. Calculation of fluid flow rates in pipe networks shows the relationship between power loss and flow ra…
The radiator is an important component in the automotive industry that functions as a heat exchanger. The way radiators work involves the use of liquids as a heat exchange medium, especially liquids with high thermophysical characteristics such as nanofluids. This study aims to determine the stability and thermophysical properties of TiO2-MWCNT / Aquades nanofluids and the factors that influenc…

This research was conducted to formulate a wireless internet service financing scheme model using three Quality of Service (QoS) attributes, namely bandwidth, end-to-end delay, and Bit Error Rate (BER). Bandwidth is the value of data transfer which is calculated in bits per second (bps). The time it takes for a bit to be transmitted across the network from source to destination is called the en…
Gasification is the process of converting fossil and non-fossil fuels (liquid, gas, or solid) into useful gases and chemical products. In the gasification process, the greater the air mass flow rate and particle size, the greater the (A/F) and ER values , and the smaller the air mass flow rate and particle size, the smaller the (A/F) and ER values. In this study, the actual gas mass obtained is…
The development of sustainable construction has been the subject of research recently. due to the significant range of carbon dioxide emissions involved in the production of regular Portland cement. Therefore, in order to support sustainable material, another material must be found. A different approach is to use an alternative material, such as fly ash, in place of the cement. Alkaline activat…
