Abstract

Diffuser merupakan salah satu konstruksi yang mampu
mengendalikan perilaku fluida. Performa diffuser dapat ditunjukkan
dengan nilai koefisen tekanan (Cp) fluida yang mengalir di dalamnya.
Adverse pressure gradient (APG) menyebabkan boundary layer
berkembang dengan cepat sehingga dapat mengakibatkan separasi
aliran dan Cp menjadi rendah. Untuk menunda separasi perlu
dievaluasi penelitian lebih lanjut tentang diffuser dengan modifikasi
sudut bukaan untuk optimasi nilai koefisen tekanan (Cp) diffuser.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi karakteristik aliran
fluida pada symmetric flat-walled diffuser dengan aspect ratio konstan
dengan dua sudut divergensi (2θ1) = 8° dan 12°. Pada penelitian ini
digunakan bilangan Reynolds 8.7 x 104
dan 12.9 x 104 berdasarkan
tinggi dan kecepatan inlet diffuser. Test section penelitian terdiri dari 3
bagian yaitu symmetric diffuser, upstream channel, dan downstream
channel. Symmetric diffuser memiliki panjang (L1) = 500 mm, upstream
channel memiliki panjang (L2) = 500 mm, dan downstream channel
memiliki panjang (L3) = 1000 mm. Test section secara keseluruhan
memiliki lebar inlet span (b1) = 100 mm, lebar outlet span sudut 8° (b2)
= 239.8 mm dan lebar outlet span sudut 12° (b3) = 312.5 mm serta
tinggi inlet diffuser (W1) = 50 mm, tinggi outlet diffuser sudut 8° (W2) =
119.9 mm dan tinggi outlet diffuser sudut 12° (W3) = 155 mm.
Penelitian ini menggunakan metode numerik dengan software Fluent
6.3.26 dengan turbulence model k-ω shear stress transport (SST). Hasil yang diperoleh dari penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak
terjadi separasi aliran pada bidang midspan vertikal pada sudut bukaan
diffuser (2θ1) = 8° dan 12°. Namun berdasarkan visualisasi vektor
kecepatan, separasi aliran dapat diamati pada bidang midspan
horizontal untuk sudut bukaan diffuser (2θ1) = 8° ditunjukkan terjadinya
separasi pada daerah setelah inlet diffuser, yaitu pada x/L1 = 1,4 hingga
x/L1 = 1,6, sedangkan untuk sudut bukaan diffuser (2θ1) = 12°
ditunjukkan terjadinya separasi pada daerah sesaat setelah inlet
diffuser, yaitu pada x/L1 = 1,2 hingga x/L1 = 1,4 pada ReW1 = 8,7 x 104
dan ReW1 = 12,9 x 104. Peningkatan bilangan Reynolds sebesar 48.3%
tidak menunjukkan terjadinya penundaan separasi diakibatkan
pengaruh adverse pressure gradient yang besar.

Diffuser is one of the construction that is able to control the
behavior of the fluid. Performance of diffuser can be indicated by
the value of the pressure coefficient (Cp) fluid that flowing in it.
Adverse pressure gradient (APG) causes boundary layer develops
rapidly so that it causes separation and Cp becomes low. So that
need to evaluating divergence angle of diffuser to delay the
separation to get optimization Cp of diffuser.
This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of fluid flow
in a symmetric flat-walled diffuser with a constant aspect ratio
with two divergence angle (2θ1) = 8 ° and 12 °. In this study used
the Reynolds number 8.7 x 104 and 12.9 x 104 based on the height
and speed of the inlet diffuser. Test section consisted of three
parts, namely symmetric diffuser, upstream channels, and
downstream channels. The symmetric diffuser has a length (L1) =
500 mm, the upstream channel length (L2) = 500 mm, and the
downstream channel has a length (L3) = 1000 mm. Overall test
section inlet width span (b1) = 100 mm, the width of the outlet
span angle of 8 ° (b2) = 239.8 mm and the width of the outlet
angle of span 12 ° (b3) = 312.5 mm and height of the inlet diffuser
(W1) = 50 mm, height outlet diffuser angle of 8 ° (W2) = 119.9
mm and height of the outlet diffuser angle of 12 ° (W3) = 155 mm. This study uses a numerical method with software Fluent 6.3.26
with k-ω turbulence model of shear stress transport (SST).
The results of the study showed that there is no flow
separation on the field at midspan vertical diffuser (2θ1) = 8 °
and 12 °. However, based on the velocity vector visualization,
flow separation can be observed at midspan plane horizontal to
diffuser (2θ1) = 8 ° indicated the occurrence of separation in the
area after the inlet diffuser, ie at x / L1 = 1.4 and x / L1 = 1.6,
while for the diffuser (2θ1) = 12 ° is shown the occurrence of
separation in the area shortly after the inlet diffuser, are at x / L1
= 1.2 to x / L1 = 1.4 at ReW1 = 8.7 x 104 and ReW1 = 12 x 104.
Increasing of the Reynolds number of 48.3% did not show a
separation delay caused by adverse pressure gradient effect.
