Summary: | Rancabuaya beach in Garut, West Java has a high potential of sun and
wind energy. Meanwhile, the Rancabuaya villagers mostly live as
fishermen. They need electricity to power the ice box to store the captured
fish. This demand for electricity can be fulfilled by the sun and wind
energy harvesting. The instruments used to harvest the energy are solar
panel and wind turbine.
This final project aims to design the instrumentation system of hybrid
solar and wind energy harvester that is going to be installed in the
fishermen boat. The design consists of electrical and mechanical systems.
The energy needed to power the boat for a day is 720 Wh. With daily
average wind velocity 4.27 m/s and sun irradiation 672 W/m2, the solar
panel can harvest 815 – 817 Wh energy, while the wind turbine can
harvest 43 – 62 Wh energy. The electrical design includes the integration
of energy harvesting system, the recording and displaying of energy data
with data logger, and the monitoring of battery’s ability to store energy.
Next, the boat hydrostatic dimension is measured to later determine its
stability condition. This mechanical design consists of designing the
installation of solar panel and wind turbine, including the dimension and
position of their framework. To reach a stable equilibrium condition, the
framework of the wind turbine should be installed at a height of 1.7 m.
The design that has been made shows that the solar panel and wind turbine
chosen can meet the energy required to power the boat. Also,
mechanically, the boat will still be stable when installed with energy
harvester instruments. It can be concluded that this design of energy
harvester system can be applied and installed on the Rancabuaya
fishermen boat. |
