SIMULASI PEMBAKARAN KEROSIN – UDARA DAN LPG – UDARA MENGGUNAKAN COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

Abstract

The governments planning to convert kerosene into LPG is not directly accepted by the society. Since it is still stronge to use and some of them are afraid of using the LPG stove. The reason is because they think that it will be easy to explode. Kerosene is not only used in house work, but also in industry, for example the production of batik. After the government brings about the program for batik entrepreneurs, they have difficuli is in using LPG stove for the process of making batik. Since the temperature of LPG stove is higher than kerosene stove. In this Final Project there fore simulation kerosene and LPG stove. Then compare the temperature of LPG and kerosene stove. I also modify the height of position so that the temperature of LPG stove is similar to kerosene stove. In this simulation CFD is used to predict the distribution of temperature in each stove and also predict gas result combustion. This simulation is carried on to vary the mass flow rate and of each stove, that is in kerosene stove varies the height of fuse 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%, for LPG stove varies open valve 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% then also modifies the height of position of LPG stove to gain temperature which is close to kerosene stove temperature.
