Analisis Konsumsi Bahan Bakar Jenis Premium, Pertalite dan Pertamax yang Terpasang pada Sepeda Motor 125cc

Abstract

Motorcycle vehicles have been widely marketed. With various types and types. Motor performance is strongly influenced by several factors, including the type of fuel used. The purpose of this study was to determine the torque, power and specific fuel consumption. This type of premium fuel, pertalite, pertamax is installed on a 4-step motorcycle. Each type of gasoline fuel is tested on a motorcycle with a dynotest device and a gas analyzer connected to the computer.The computer will record graph changes to increase power and torque from the engine to 1000 rpm. While specific fuel consumption is calculated from the use of fuel divided by the power output.The research results of the highest torque produced by pertalite fuel are greater than those produced by premium fuels. And when compared to pertamax higher than premium and pertalite.Pertamax fuel produces the highest power of 11HP at 8000 rpm. The content of exhaust emissions of pertamax fuel is lower in terms of HC, CO, CO2 and O2 gases so that it can be said to be more environmentally friendly compared to premium fuels and pertalite. Pertamax fuel is superior to premium fuels and pertalite. Judging from the torque, power, exhaust emissions and specific consumption. To get a more complete analysis, some observations are still needed, including testing on trails, climbing roads, or uneven roads.
