Mengatur Kapasitas Pompa Plunyer Kerja ganda
Kapasitas pompa plunyer tergantung pada diameter plunyer, panjang langkah plunyer dan kecepatan putar poros penggerak. Dari ke tiga parameter tersebut yang bisa dirubah adalah panjang langkah dan kecepatan putar poros penggerak, tetapi kadang-kadang kecepatan putar poros penggerak sudah konstan sehingga untuk mengatur kapasitas pompa hanya dapat dilakukan dengan mengatur panjang langkah plunger dengan bantuan sepal!\u27 luncur. Telapi pengaturan tersebut hanya bisa dilakukan untuk pompa kerja tunggal (single acting). Untuk pompa kerja ganda kapasitas dapat diatur denganbantuan katup pengatur yang berhubungan dengan saluran tekan. Pembukaan dan penutupan katup digerakkan oleh nok (hubungan), sehingga kalau kapasitas terlalu besar air dari saluran tekan dapat dialirkan balik masuk ke dalam silinder pada sisi isap

Pengaruh Arah Pengerolan Terhadap Ketanggujan Dan Laju Perambatan Retak Pelat Kapal Grade A
An Investigation of the effect of rolling on the fracture toughness and crack growth rate for ship steel has been performed. The testing was carried out using compact tension specimens (CTS) on the field to be investigated. The CTS orientation was chosen to be parallel and perpendicular to the rolling orientation. The fracture toughness and crack growth rate tests were conducted in accordance with ASTM standard E 399-83 and ASTM standard E 647 - 86a respectively.
The test \u27results show that the fracture toughness of perpendicular to the rolling direction is slightly higher than of parallel direction. The crack growth rate depends on the range of the stress intensity factor (AK). For low value of AK the crack growth rote is the same for all directions, and for high value of AK, Perpendicular to the rolling direction shows higher than parallel to the rolling direction

ABSTRACT
An Investigation of the effect of local heating on the fracture toughness and crack growth rate for ship plates has beee performed. The local heating was carried out using a welding system on the field to be investigated.
A number of plates, which has been welded, was cut to produce a number of specimens which consists of fracture toughness specimens, crack growth rates specimens and other specimens needed. The main test in the research was fracture toughness and crack growth rate. The fracture toughness and crack growth rate were conducted in accordance with AsTm standard E399-83 and ASTM standard E647-86a respectively.
The test results show that the fracture toughness at the HAZ is slightly higher than at the base metal. The crack growth
rate depends on the range of the stress intensity factor (AK). For low value of AK, the crack growth rate at the HAZ is 35%,i lower than at the base metal, and for high value of AK, it shows 46% lower than at the base metal.

Aluminium matrix composite (AMC) has been prepared from aluminium fine powder as a matrix and fly waste as reinforcement. In this research the amount of fly ash as much as 2,5, 5, 7,5 and 10 wt% was added to the aluminium fine powder. The mixture was compacted using uniaxial with a pressure of 100 MPa and it was pressureless sintered in argon atmosphere at various temperature of 500°, 525°, 550°, 575° and 600°C. Bending strength of AMC was determined using four point bending, hardness was tested using Vickers method, wear rate was tested using pin on disk method. Porosity was tested using Archimedes method and the micro structure was observed using SEM. The result shows that fly ash can be used as reinforcement of AMC. The bending strength and Vickers hardness of AMC increase, wear rate and porosity of AMC decrease with increasing the fly ash content up to 7.5 wt%, while fly ash higher than 7,5 wt% causes a decrease. Porosity, bending strength, wear rate and hardness of AMC are 5,4%, 68,5 MPa, 0,0571 mg/(MPa.m) and 62,6 VHB, respectively. It shows that bending strength, hardness and wear resistance of AMC are higher than pure aluminium
