The invention relates to a mobile pump system for pumping water and/or extinguishing agent and an associated method therefor. The mobile pump system comprises:

a frame for housing the pump system;

a booster pump arranged in the frame;

one or more submersible pumps arranged in the frame;

a booster pump motor drive configured to drive the booster pump;

a hydraulics motor drive configured to drive the one or more submersible pumps and wherein the hydraulics motor drive is configured to function as auxiliary drive for the booster pump; and

a coupling for coupling the booster pump to the hydraulics motor drive such that the hydraulics motor drive can function as auxiliary drive for the booster pump.

An gas-driven generator system for generating electric power from movement of a working liquid. The system includes a gas-driven generator that includes a liquid turbine system fluidically interposed between the lower end of an elongated gravitational distribution conduit and the lower ends of plural elongated buoyancy conduits. A heavy working liquid flows from the upper ends of the buoyancy conduits and is fed into the upper end of the elongated gravitational distribution conduit. Working liquid flows down the elongated gravitational distribution conduit to actuate the liquid turbine system. An injection of refrigerant gas into the working liquid in the plural elongated buoyancy conduits induces upward flow of the working liquid. The system includes a solar thermal heating system fluidically coupled to heat exchangers that transfer heat collected by the solar thermal heating system to the working liquid through a thermal transfer fluid circuit.

A fluid transfer pump that has a housing, a body portion movable within the housing between a first position and a second position, a gear coupled to the housing, a body cavity defined partially between the body portion and the housing, and an aperture defined in the housing that selectively provides a fluid to the body cavity. When the fluid is applied to the body cavity at or above a pilot pressure, the body portion is in the first position adjacent to the gear and when the fluid is applied to the body cavity at a fluid pressure lower than the pilot pressure, the body portion is in the second position and spaced from the gear.

A power supply controller includes a driver having a circuit board and controlling an operation of an electric oil pump, a control unit controlling power supply to the driver, a board temperature sensor detecting a temperature of the circuit board; and an oil temperature sensor detecting a temperature of a working oil of a transmission as an oil temperature. The control unit executes energization prohibition control for prohibiting power supply to the driver when the temperature of the circuit board detected by the board temperature sensor exceeds a predetermined first threshold temperature, and executes cancellation determination for determining whether to cancel the energization prohibition control based on the oil temperature detected by the oil temperature sensor during execution of the energization prohibition control.

An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration that includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump that is mounted on the single pump trailer. A pump configuration includes a single VFD configuration, the single shaft electric motor, and the single shaft hydraulic pump mounted on the single pump trailer. The single VFD configuration converts the electric power at the power generation voltage level distributed from the power distribution trailer to a VFD voltage level and drives the single shaft electric motor to control the operation of the single shaft electric motor and the single hydraulic pump. The VFD voltage level is a voltage level that is required to drive the single shaft electric motor. The VFD configuration also controls operation of the auxiliary systems based on the electric power at the auxiliary voltage level.

A modular multiport pod missile includes a plurality of pipe sections securable together to form a conduit for transporting a fluid in a generally horizonal direction of travel, and at least one pod secured between two of the pipe sections forming the conduit. Each pod has a plurality of input ports extending radially outwardly at an angle from a perimeter of the pod. Each of the input ports is configured for connection to a high-pressure line for delivering a high-pressure fluid from a pump to the conduit. The input ports are angled such that, when connected to a high-pressure line, high-pressure fluid flowing through the input ports merges with the fluid in the conduit generally in the same direction of travel as the fluid in the conduit.
