Technology Reports of Kansai University (ISSN: 04532198) is a monthly peer-reviewed and open-access international Journal. It was first built in 1959 and officially in 1975 till now by kansai university, japan. The journal covers all sort of engineering topic, mathematics and physics. Technology Reports of Kansai University (TRKU) was closed access journal until 2017. After that TRKU became open access journal. TRKU is a scopus indexed journal and directly run by faculty of engineering, kansai university.

The condenser is a device for condensing steam from a turbine. Used steam from the turbine enters from the top of the condenser, then experiences condensation due to absorption of heat by injected cooling water. Condenser is one component that is very important in electricity generation. Lahendong Geothermal Power Plant has produced 4 × 20 MW of electricity. Condenser performance will affect the efficiency of a power plant and affecting the condenser is the heat transfer rate and the mass flow rate of the water in the condenser. this research is a correlation study between cooling towers and condensers, because one of the parameters used is condenser cooling water distributed by cooling towers. The calculation results show the highest heat transfer rate reaches 1327.53 Watt at water temperature 3.16 ℃ with the value of water mass flow rate 76.97 kg / s, while the lowest heat transfer rate value reaches 579.58 Watt at water temperature 1.38 ℃ with the value of water mass flow rate 40.09 kg / s. This means that the temperature of the cooling water is directly proportional to the heat transfer rate and the water flow rate of the condenser.
The objective to be achieved in this research is to determine the demographic factors and investment motives of the SME sector in Samarinda. The method in this research is Path Analysis or better known as Path Analysis, with the Likert scale as the measurement scale. The population as a whole with a sample of 200 respondents. The data processing technique uses the SEM method based on Partial Least Square (PLS). The results showed that the investment motive had a significant influence on investment decisions in the MSME sector in Kalimantan.
The discussion about a house cannot only be learned from the perceivable physical form, but the house can be a description of the development process of the formation of a family with the social, cultural and economic conditions that underlie it. The physical condition of a residence can also provide an idea of how far the home owner has adapted the technology and culture around him. Family routine activities can also be described in the condition of the existing space configuration in the house. Circulation patterns are intentionally or unintentionally formed from the configuration of space which forms an element of the living space. This is also what happens to community settlements in the Poncokusumo District, Malang Regency. The condition of the area adjacent to Ngadas Village which is very thick with Tengger customs and culture was an interesting reason for the Poncokusumo District as the object of the research. The configuration pattern of the residential space was the result of this research discussion which was analyzed using qualitative methods. house, room, configuration.
Since the pandemic of Covid-19 happened in this world, people were unable buying foods freely. Since food is a primary need of humans, we tried to change the methods of buying foods from several store especially in the area of a University. Sometimes, students have difficulties to reach the store. Usually, they don’t have private transportation so, there are probabilities they will get infected by the virus. This paper will discuss an application for automation of food order list that design for store near the University. We used the old methods such SMS gateway in order to reach the store easily, since several admins of the stores still old- fashioned. The result of this paper shows the needs of this application is very high, and it helped the students to get foods in this Covid-19 era.
The courtyard house is a traditional type of housing that used to adapt social, environmental and economic context of Iraq cities in the past. Even though the users' needs are changing over time, but the traditional courtyard houses are still used in the modern era. Accordingly, this study introduces the potential of the courtyard house as a type for adapting contemporary users’ need in Iraq, Koya city as a case. To do so, the study investigates the main traditional types of houses in Koya city: courtyard houses, and non-courtyard ones. Both types are still inhabitant in the modern era, which raises the question of how far courtyard houses may adapt contemporary user needs comparing to the non-courtyard ones? And what degree of changes was required in courtyard houses to meet contemporary user’s needs? Accordingly, the study examines the architectural and structural characteristics of Koya traditional houses of both types, and tries to understand the different ways of adapting such types by contemporary users spatially, and physically. It is an attempt to supply a suitable basement for developing a general guideline for conserving traditional courtyard houses, and designing modern courtyard houses in Iraqi cities in the future. The study followed a methodology that relied on field research to compare the current situation of both traditional types. A sample of 15 examples for each type was studied and analyzed. Two values are chosen for the comparison: flexibility with changes, and satisfaction of users. Thus, residents of the chosen sample were asked about their satisfaction on living in both types of traditional houses, and what kind of alterations they did or wish to do in the future. The survey has revealed that most problems of courtyard houses refers to the physical adaptation of the houses and not to the spatial adaptation, which still be able to satisfy environmental and social needs of users with an acceptable degree of changes. In this sense, the main found of the study is: courtyard house as a type is a very potential approach for adaptable housing in Iraq in terms of its flexibility with contemporary users’ needs, which increases the satisfaction of users on living in such houses comparing with non-courtyard houses if such physical problems were solved.
