Density gas separation appartus for electric submersible pumps
A system includes an electric submersible pump (ESP) configured for pumping fluid through a flow path. An autonomous inflow control device (AICD) is included in fluid communication with the flow path to separate one of gas or liquid out of the flow path. A method includes producing liquid from a wellbore using an electric submersible pump (ESP) in the wellbore. The method includes bypassing gas from a headspace the wellbore using an autonomous inflow control device (AICD) to prevent gas locking the ESP.
FUEL SYSTEM WITH VAPOR MANAGEMENT
A fuel system, including a first pump, a second pump and a filter module. The filter module has a housing defining an interior, a filter received in the interior, a filter inlet through which fluid flows into the interior, a filter outlet from which fluid flows out of the interior, and a vent body received within the interior. The vent body has a passage and a vent orifice. The filter is arranged so that fluid that enters the filter inlet flows through the filter before flowing out of the filter outlet and the interior includes an upper portion arranged above a lower portion relative to the force of gravity, and the passage communicates with the filter outlet and with the lower portion of the interior and the vent orifice communicates with the passage and with the upper portion of the interior.
Pneumatic pump control system
A pneumatic pump control system includes a pump chamber having a top end and a bottom end, an air valve coupled to the top end of the pump chamber and configured to be coupled to a pressurized air source, and a pump chamber valve coupled to the bottom end of the pump chamber. In addition, the pneumatic pump control system includes a discharge chamber having a top end and a bottom end, a discharge fitting coupled to the top end of the discharge chamber, a discharge check valve coupled to the bottom end of the discharge chamber in fluid communication with the pump chamber valve, and an inlet check valve in fluid communication with the pump chamber.
Pump assembly
A pump assembly includes at least one rotatingly driven impeller (14) and at least one valve element (18) which is rotatable about a rotation axis (X) between at least two switching positions. The valve element (18) includes a first face side (22) which extends transversely to the rotation axis of the valve element. A suction opening (24), which is engaged with a suction port (26) of the impeller (14), is formed in this first face side in a central region. The first face side (22) includes a pressure surface which surrounds the suction opening (24) and is adjacent to a delivery chamber (28) which surrounds the impeller (14).
Device for protection of wastewater pumps for wet accumulation chambers
A device for protection of wastewater pumps for wet accumulation chambers has a separation chamber provided with a discharge pipe for discharging wastewater into a sewerage network. A supply pipe connected to the separation chamber supplies solid particles containing wastewater into the separation chamber. A reversing valve arranged between the supply pipe and the separation chamber prevents reverse flow of wastewater into the supply pipe. A bidirectional pipe connected to the separation chamber connects the separation chamber with a pump, where the bidirectional pipe serves to supply wastewater from the separation chamber into the pump positioned in the wet accumulation chamber and for reverse flow of wastewater from the pump into the separation chamber to a discharge pipe. A solid particles separator arranged between the separation chamber and the bidirectional pipe separates solid particles contained in wastewater in the separation chamber.
Pump assembly and related methods
In one aspect, a pump is provided comprising a motor configured to rotate a shaft that is operably coupled to an impeller. The impeller is housed within a fluid chamber having an inlet and a discharge in fluid communication with the inlet. The fluid chamber further includes an outlet in a top portion thereof for venting air within the fluid chamber when the impeller is rotated by the motor. In other forms, a pump assembly is provided with an internal float switch integrated into the pump housing.
MONOLITHIC ADDITIVELY MANUFACTURED PUMP INLET HOUSING AND FILTER
A method of manufacturing a pump inlet housing and filter for a pump assembly, wherein the pump inlet housing and filter are monolithic, the method has the steps of: defining a pump inlet housing as a housing tubular shape with an inlet aperture boundary at a housing top end, and an outlet aperture boundary at a housing bottom end; defining a lattice filter between the inlet and outlet aperture boundaries; and performing an additive manufacturing (AM) process to additively manufacture the pump inlet housing and the lattice filter such that the lattice filter is integral with the pump inlet housing.
High-lift shielded permanent magnet multistage pump and control method
A high-lift shielded permanent magnet multistage water pump includes a pump shell, a motor assembly and an impeller. The motor assembly includes a motor barrel, a stator, a rotor and a rotor shaft. The pump shell is sleeved on an outside of motor barrel. An upper and a lower connection base for fixing the motor barrel is provided in the pump shell. A waterway cavity is formed between the pump shell and motor barrel. An upper and a lower impeller cavities are respectively formed at an upper and a lower ends of the pump shell. The lower impeller cavity, water passing cavity and upper impeller cavity are in sequential fluid communication. Both ends of the rotor shaft with an axel provided on pass through the upper and the lower connection bases respectively. The impeller is a multistage structure and mounted on the axle at both ends respectively.
Hydrophilic toothed impeller type oil transportation device
The present disclosure is directed to providing impeller type oil transportation device including; a transport unit provided such that a mixed fluid including an oil is fed on one side; and an impeller provided in the transport unit, the impeller including a core connected to a rotation axis, and wings extending radially from the core and having hydrophilic teeth on an outer surface to transport the mixed fluid including the oil to the other side of the transport unit by rotation, wherein the impeller is provided in the transport unit such that parts of the wings are exposed above a surface of the mixed fluid, to separate the oil adhered to the teeth while the mixed fluid is fed into a space between the adjacent teeth by capillary flow when the wings exposed above the surface of the mixed fluid move on to the mixed fluid by the rotation.
