| dc.description.abstract | Common problemsfacedworld today, isthe depletion ofpetroleum reserves.
This phenomenon isencouraging peopletoseekalternative fuelthat is expected
toovercome these problems. One type ofalternativefuelthatmakes it possible
toreplacefueloil, mainlyusedfor motor vehiclesandgeneratorsetsare theLPG.
UsingLPGforOtto enginescan be doneby adding apiece of equipment
calledaconversionkit. But theobstaclesencountered intheconversionkitis
aconversionpricethat is tooexpensiveanddifficulttoobtain.Toovercome these
problemsis carried outmodifications to theenginecarburetorOttomanually
controlled.
The tools usedinthis researchis, the generatorsets, autogasanalyzer, digital
tachometer, digital multimeter, stop watch, weights,andscales. Andas
aningredient, PertaminaLPGproduction.
Dataobtained from thegaugereadingis processedinto theempiricalformula,
thenthe datafrom thecalculationspresented intabulatedandgraphicform.
Otto engine carburator modification process is still not provide the
optimal function, that is too high idle rotation, and to perform acceleration will
couse delays of supply LPG into the combustion chamber so that the engine
performance decreases | en_US |
