| Abstrak (Bhs. Indonesia) | Kompor merupakan salah satu tempat terjadinya proses pembakaran. Seiring dengan dikuranginya subsidi minyak tanah untuk rumah tangga, bermacam kompor berbahan bakar alternatif mulai dikembangkan, salah satunya kompor “IRAC” dengan bahan bakar bioetanol. Tujuan penelitian ini, yaitu menguji performansi 2 macam kompor “IRAC” menggunakan bahan bakar bioetanol dari bahan baku molase kadar 60% dan 80%. Pengujian performansi kompor “IRAC” ini dengan menggunakan motode WBT (water boiling test). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa performansi kompor IRAC generasi I dan generasi II dipengaruhi oleh bahan bakar yang digunakan. Rata-rata hasil pengujian kompor “IRAC” generasi I adalah waktu penyalaan 68-102 detik, waktu pemasakan 2 liter air 26,67-48,33 menit, dan konsumsi bahan bakarnya 120-183,33 ml. Rata-rata hasil pengujian kompor “IRAC” generasi II adalah waktu penyalaan 50,67-85 detik, waktu pemasakan 2 liter air 15-23,33 menit, dan konsumsi bahan bakarnya 125-186,67 ml. Rata-rata efisiensi sistem kompor dan efisiensi pembakaran kompor “IRAC” generasi I dengan bahan bakar bioetanol dari molase kadar 60% yaitu 42,16% dan 61,04%, sedangkan dengan bahan bakar bioetanol dari molase kadar 80% yaitu 44,22% dan 69,90%. Selanjutnya efisiensi sistem kompor dan efisiensi pembakaran pada kompor “IRAC” generasi II dengan bahan bakar bioetanol dari molase kadar 60% yaitu 32,81% dan 50,38%, serta saat menggunakan bahan bakar bioetanol dari molase kadar 80% yaitu 35,96% dan 55,04%. |

| Abtrak (Bhs. Inggris) | Stove is one of the instrument for combustion process. Along with the reduction of subsidies for household kerosene, various alternative fuel stoves were developed, one of which “IRAC” stove with bioethanol fuel. This study is conducted to, which tested the performance of the 2 kind stove “IRAC” using bioethanol fuel from molasses feedstock contentration were 60% and 80%. This “IRAC” stove performance testing using the metode of WBT (water boiling test). The results showed performance of the “IRAC” stove first generation and second generation are affected by the fuel used. The average furnace testing results “IRAC” stove for first generation is the beginning of ignition time 68-102 second, boiling time of 2 liters water 26.67-48.33 minutes, and fuel consumption 120-183.33 ml. The average furnace testing results “IRAC” stove for second generation is the beginning of ignition time 50.67-85 second, boiling time of 2 liters water 15-23.33 minutes, and fuel consumption 125-186.67 ml. The average of efficiency stove system and efficiency combustion of the “IRAC” stove for first generation with bioethanol fuel 60% from molasses was 42.63% and 61.04%, while the bioethanol fuel 80% from molasses are 44.71% and 69.90%. Later efficiency stove system and efficiency combustion of the second generation “IRAC” stove with bioethanol fuel 60% from molasses was 33.13% and 50.38%, and when using bioethanol fuel 80% from molasses was 36.42% and 55.04%. |
