Abstract

Water is an absolute necessity for the survival of life because without water there will be no life in this world. For areas that are close to water sources or are located close to springs, the need for water is not a problem. The laws of physics say that water flows from a higher place to a lower place, but the fact is that the land surface is not always flat; there are hilly and bumpy areas. For areas that are higher than the water source, it will be difficult to get a continuous supply of water. One of the efforts to get water supply for areas that are higher than the spring is to use a water pump. The types of pumps commonly used today are electric-powered water pumps and fuel-powered water pumps. In urban areas, the need for fuel and electricity is not a problem, but in rural areas, the availability of fuel and electricity is very scarce and expensive. The hydraulic ram is the answer to this problem. One of the efforts to increase the efficiency of hydraulic ram pump performance is by increasing the number of waste valves arranged in series. The problem is, is there any effect of the arrangement of the double waste valve series on the performance efficiency of the 2-inch hydraulic ram pump at the Input-Compressor-Waste-Waste (ICWW) position, the Input-Waste-Waste-Compressor (IWWC) position, and the Input-Waste-Compressor-Waste position. (IWCW)? The purpose of this research is to design, manufacture, and test the arrangement of the double valve series of hydraulic ram pumps at three different positions (ICWW, IWWC, and IWCW) using a 3000 ml compressor tube. So, it could be seen the optimal performance efficiency of the hydraulic ram pump. The method used is a site survey, literature study, and action method with the design of the hydraulic ram pump installation, as well as observing the effect of using a double exhaust valve in series at the ICWW, IWWC, and IWCW positions on the efficiency of the 2-inch hydraulic ram pump performance. The results of this study indicate that the largest pumping discharge occurs in the IWCW pump arrangement (Input-Waste-Compressor-Waste) with a waste valve weight of 367 grams; at input 180 liters/minute produces output 0.131 liters/second and at input 170 liters/minute produces output 0.107 liters/second. The greatest efficiency also occurs in the IWCW pump arrangement (Input-Waste-Compressor-Waste) with a waste valve weight of 367 grams; at the input of 180 lt/min by 132% and at the input of 170 lt/min by 110% (according to D’Aubuison Efficiency).
