Abstract
Kemplang is a crunchy traditional snack of the common people in Palembang, South Sumatra, Indonesia. Normally, it roasted on an open charcoal furnace, where the smoke, the heat and the combustion gases spread out in all directions. Vertical Energy Saver (VESA) is an equipment that has already patented created to accomodate the heat, the gas, fly ash and particulate matters from charcoal furnace used for roasting and preheating the kemplang in VESA and dispose the residual heat and gases to a place that is safe for humans breath. . VESA-2 is a VESA that already developed due to improve the effectiveness and the efficiency of equipment.. The air flew from the bottom of VESA-2 through the charcoal furnace to the top by a suction fan. VESA-2 is still developed and improved. It is completely work on the base of forced convection. Some tests are carried out to improve performance and the energy efficiency of equipment. The results of tests conducted on the base of enlargement the volume of VESA-2 is presented here. All measurements are carried out at no load. Test results show that the energy efficiency of original VESA-2 is 20.61%, the energy efficiency of VESA-2 with 30 centimeters height addition is 27.05% and the energy efficiency of VESA-2 with height addition and 28% of cross section area enlargement is 28.18%. The height addition and the cross section area enlargement are significantly increase the energy efficiency of VESA-2. Keywords: VESA-2, suction fan, force convection, charcoal furnace, energy efficiency
