Startup Control Systems And Methods To Reduce Flooded Startup Conditions
A refrigeration system includes a startup mode control module that receives an off time of a compressor of the refrigeration system and an ambient temperature, determines whether the off time and the ambient temperature indicate that the compressor is in a flooded condition, and selects, based on the determination, between a normal startup mode and a flooded startup mode. A compressor control module operates the compressor in the normal startup mode in response to the startup mode control module selecting the normal startup mode, in the flooded startup mode in response to the startup mode control module selecting the flooded startup mode, and transitions from the flooded startup mode to the normal startup mode after a predetermined period associated with operating in the flooded startup mode. The compressor is operated at a first speed in the normal startup mode and at a second speed in the flooded startup mode.
Motor, controller and associated method
A pump motor controller for determining the speeds and run times of a pump motor for use in a pool is provided. The controller is adapted to receive data in the form of at least one of water parameters and outdoor parameters. The controller is further adapted to receive to receive data in the form of desired pool or spa set points. The controller is further adapted to determine the speeds and run times of a pump motor for use in a pool based at least in part on data in the form of at least one of water parameters and outdoor parameters and data in the form of desired pool set points.
AIR COMPRESSOR
An air compressor includes a tank unit, a compressed air generating unit, a motor unit, a driving current generating unit, a control unit and a temperature detecting unit. The tank unit stores a compressed air. The compressed air generating unit generates the compressed air to be stored in the tank unit. The motor unit drives the compressed air generating unit. The driving current generating unit generates a driving current of the motor unit. The control unit drives the motor unit by controlling the driving current generating unit. The temperature detecting unit detects a temperature of the driving current generating unit. The control unit changes the driving current of the motor unit by controlling the driving current generating unit based on the temperature detected by the temperature detecting unit.
Pump drive system
A drive system for a fluid displacement pump includes an electric motor, a drive coupled to the rotor at a first end of the electric motor, a pump including a fluid displacement member mechanically coupled to the drive, and a controller configured to control a level of power to the electric motor based on a pressure setting set by a user. The electric motor includes a stator and a rotor disposed on an axis. The drive coupled to the rotor converts the rotational output to a linear, reciprocating input to power a pump.
Method for simulating the effect of plugs on cement placement
A wellbore servicing method comprising transporting a pump unit comprising a unit controller and pumping equipment to a wellsite. Executing a design process on the unit controller to determine a concentration of a wellbore treatment fluid at a wiper plug within an oilfield tubular. The design process utilizes a CFD model to generate a static mesh representative of the geometry of the oilfield tubular, locate the wiper plug within the static mesh, and determine a fluid velocity on each side of the wiper plug with flexible static mesh cells. The CFD model can generate a prediction of the concentration of the wellbore treatment fluids in response to the wiper plug reaching a target location within the oilfield tubular.
Predictive pump maintenance based upon utilization and operating conditions
A computer implemented method of predicting a future maintenance event of a pumping equipment on a wellbore pumping unit comprising loading a pump usage log and a pump maintenance log into a predictive maintenance model. The predictive maintenance model is trained by a machine learning process with a historical database of completed pumping jobs. The predictive maintenance model determines a probability of a future maintenance event in response to the current pump usage. The unit controller displays an alert of the remaining pump life in comparison to a threshold value for a recommended pump maintenance period or a required pump maintenance period.
