Vol. 8 No. 1 (2022): ENERGI SISTEM TERTUTUP PADA PEMBANGKIT LISTRIK BERBASIS MAGNET

This article reports the development and testing of magnet-based power generator at the Indonesian Ministry of Defense’s Research and Development Agency. This magnet-based power generator model produces an output power of 400 Wh according to environmental function tests. The BLDC drive with only one battery will experience problems after more than 2 hours and 31 minutes of usage. The use of excessive voltage and current capacity causes the overcharge of the battery. The use of one battery in the internal system is insufficient, preventing the system from running continuously. Moreover, there is an imbalance between the input and output currents in the BLDC and PMA systems due to the availability of only one battery despite the actual need of 4-5 batteries. This power generation model still needs improvement to achieve balance in the system of voltage capacity on discharge and current charging system. Therefore, further development and refinement is required.
