Abstract

There are three types of prime movers namely, electric motor, diesel engine with gear box transmission and diesel engine with hydraulic drive, this study is to justify the most economiic prime mover in term of its operational cost. The operational cost it divided into two components which are cost hectare per meter and maintenance cost. To detenmine the value of hectare per meter design of pump house with the pipeline was first considered .Cost of hectare per meter is then determined by calculating the power consumed to irrigate water to the paddy field. These included the electricity and diesel oil calculation for each prime mover. The maintenance cost is involv•ed the price of spare part for the prime mover i.e straine1r, engine oil, air filter and etc. the lowest operation cost among the three prime movers is electric prime mover at 1the amount of RM 66.34 this follow by the diesel engine with gear box transmission at RM 112.91 and the most expansive prime mover is diesel engine with hydrauli•c transmission at RM129.17.
