Glow-Wire Analysis of Polypropylene Blends for Mechanical and Marine Engineering Applications Himma Firdaus, Ihsan Supono, Anandito Adam Pratama, Iwan Istanto, Aditya Rio Prabowo, et al. Civil Engineering Journal Iran, 2025 Polymer materials are widely used due to their versatility; however, their vulnerability to fire is a significant concern, especially under electrical influences on engineered mechanical designs and marine structure applications. This study examines the fire resistance of a polypropylene (PP) blend using Glow-Wire Flammability Index (GWFI) and Glow-Wire Ignition Temperature (GWIT) tests. While previous research typically relies on flame-retardants to address flammability, this work proposes using a simple 1:1 weight ratio blend of two distinct PP types. This specific PP blend was selected to provide balanced material properties and improved processing consistency. The results from glow-wire tests were compared with previous findings to evaluate flammability performance. Our findings reveal that although the PP blend offers enhanced fire resistance compared to neat PP, it remains inferior to PP-containing flame-retardant additives. The outcomes suggest that this blended PP may be suitable for applications where mechanical properties, cost-effectiveness, and recyclability precede fire resistance, such as engineered automotive interiors, mechanical design of marine transportation, and low-risk electrical components in engineering infrastructure. This initial research contributes valuable insights into the fire behavior of PP blends. Moreover, it establishes a foundation for future investigations into polymer fire resistance, encouraging additional glow-wire testing on other polymer systems.
A Tutorial to Implement a BLDC Motor Speed Control for an Electric Boat Using Simscape and Simulink Iput Kasiyanto, Himma Firdaus, Ihsan Supono, Nanang Kusnandar, Qudsiyyatul Lailiyah, et al. 2024 14th International Conference on System Engineering and Technology Icset 2024 Proceeding, 2024 The marine sector is moving towards all-electric ships to improve energy efficiency and reduce air pollution. A key part of an electric propulsion system for an electric ship is the electric motor, especially permanent magnet motors, known for their high torque and efficiency. Recently, brushless DC (BLDC) permanent magnet motors have rapidly advanced, matching the pace of electric boat development. These motors are preferred for their efficiency, reliability, and low maintenance, making them suitable for varying water conditions. Despite much research on BLDC motor modeling, there are few tutorial-style guides. This paper offers a step-by-step tutorial for using Simscape and Simulink to control BLDC motors in electric boats. The simulation results demonstrate excellent speed tracking, closely matching the desired speed without overshooting. The system swiftly adjusts to rapid speed changes during acceleration and deceleration, which is essential for applications requiring quick adjustments. This guide helps engineers and researchers design, test, and optimize motor control systems, promoting efficient and sustainable electric boating solutions.
Performance Evaluation of High-Energy LiFePO4Battery Pack for Electric Shuttle Himma Firdaus, Ihsan Supono, Qudsiyyatul Lailiyah, Iput Kasiyanto, Nanang Kusnandar, et al. Iop Conference Series Earth and Environmental Science, 2024 For tourism-based electric shuttles, high-energy batteries are crucial. A 200 Ah Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery pack has been designed yet lacks performance evaluation. We conducted performance tests based on ISO 12405-4:2018. The battery comprises 24 cells connected in series, resulting in a 72 V output voltage. Under controlled conditions at 23°C, the test assessed charging and discharging at defined C-rates. The study assessed the resistance, capacity, and efficiency. We also monitored heat distribution in the battery system during test to detect abnormalities. The results revealed that the maximum attainable battery charge rate was C/3. Under this rate, the discharge capacity reached 160 Ah, and the battery temperature rose to just below 36.2°C. On the other hand, charging the battery at C/6 yielded 191.5 Ah, which increased the battery temperature to 31°C. Thus, the energy round-trip efficiency was measured at 86.5%. However, charging the battery at C/3 led to the Battery Management System (BMS) overheating, indicated by the casing temperature exceeding 67 °C. The overheating caused severe damage to the BMS charging component and triggered an automatic cut-off. The higher total battery resistance during charging was identified as the root cause of the issue, emphasizing the need for future research to focus on enhancing the BMS for faster and more efficient charging, improving the service reliability of the electric shuttle.
