Abstract

In the Research of DIPA Grant in 2019, the size of the hydraulic ram (hydram) pump used in Pakandangan in Padang Pariaman Regency was designed. In this area, a water source had not been utilized to irrigate the paddy field of 10 hectares since it was located higher than the water source. The designed hydram pump was not maximal because the pump’s optimal performance was not known yet. Therefore, a hydram pump is desgned by varying the load of waste valve. When the pump is operated, the load of waste valve is varied in the 200 g, 300 g, 400 g, 500 g and 600 g weight. The height (Hd) of the inlet pipe is 1 m, and the lift height (Hs) of the outlet pipe is 5 m. From the testing, it is obtained that the lowest waste discharge is in 200g waste valve load, that is 1.118 l/s, and the highest pump discharge is in 400 g waste valve load, namely 0.063 l/s. The best number of waste valve beats is found in 400 g waste valve load, that is 3/7 beats/s. The highest Rankine efficiency is 6.5% in 600 g valve load, and the highest D’Aubuisson efficiency is 21.24% in 200 g valve load.
