PARAMETER MONITORING AND CONTROL FOR AN ELECTRIC DRIVEN HYDRAULIC FRACKING SYSTEM
An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump mounted on the single pump trailer. A controller associated with the single VFD and is mounted on the single pump trailer. The controller monitors operation parameters associated with an operation of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system as each component of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system operates to determine whether the operation parameters deviate beyond a corresponding operation parameter threshold. Each of the operation parameters provides an indicator as to an operation status of a corresponding component of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system. The controller initiates corrected actions when each operation parameter deviates beyond the corresponding operation threshold. Initiating the corrected actions when each operation parameter deviates beyond the corresponding operation threshold maintains the operation of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system.
Flow controller
The present invention relates to a flow controller configured to selectively act as a pump or as a flow regulator. The flow controller comprises: an inlet for a fluid; an outlet for the fluid; a pump assembly arranged between the inlet and the outlet and configured to pump the fluid through the flow controller from the inlet to the outlet; a hydro electrical generator assembly arranged between the inlet and the outlet, the hydro electrical generator assembly configured to allow the fluid flow through the flow controller from the inlet to the outlet and to generate electricity by transforming flow energy of the fluid flowing through the flow controller into electricity; and a mode controller configured to selectively set the flow controller in a pumping mode or in an electricity generating mode.
Turbine Powered Electrical Submersible Pump System
A turbine-powered electrical submersible pump (ESP) that has intake and discharge ports. The ESP intakes wellbore fluid from the intake port at an intake pressure, pressurizes the fluid, and discharges the fluid from the discharge port at a discharge pressure higher than the intake pressure. A motor is coupled to and drives the ESP. A turbine generator has a flow passage disposed between turbine intake and discharge ports. The turbine intake port is fluidly coupled to the pump discharge port. The turbine generator generates electric power from the pressurized wellbore fluid flowing through the flow passage and is electrically coupled to the motor and powers the motor with the generated electric power. A rechargeable battery is electrically coupled to the motor and provides power to initially start the motor. The turbine generator is further electrically coupled to the battery and recharges the battery.
PLUMBING REPAIR SUMP SYSTEM
A pump out system removes a liquid from a worksite and includes a pump, a power source, a rigid spacer, a coupling, and a flexible discharge hose. The pump moves the liquid from an intake of the pump to an output of the pump in response to receiving power. The power source selectively connects to the pump to provide power to the pump. The rigid spacer connects the power source to the pump and spaces the power source from the submersible pump. The coupling sealingly secures the rigid spacer to the pump and prevents ingress of the liquid into the rigid spacer and a cavity defined by the coupling and the pump. The flexible discharge hose connects to the output of the pump and communicates the liquid from the output of the pump away from the worksite.
ELECTRIC DRIVEN HYDRAULIC FRACKING OPERATION
Certain embodiments of the present application relate to a variable frequency drive (VFD) cabin for a pump configuration including a mobile trailer on which the VFD cabin is to be mounted. The VFD cabin generally includes a medium-voltage VFD and a ventilation system. In certain embodiments, the ventilation system is configured to generate an overpressure condition within the cabin to discourage the entry of dust and debris into the cabin. In certain embodiments, one or more components of the medium-voltage VFD are coupled to the floor of the cabin via a vibration damping system. In certain embodiments, the VFD cabin may be directly coupled to a chassis of the mobile trailer without an intervening suspension being provided between the VFD cabin and the chassis.
High volume portable hand drill pump
The present invention is a system and method for pumping a fluid using a high-speed, fluid evacuating pump in which the pump is operated by a battery powered hand drill, wherein a first embodiment of a pump design includes a rigid cylindrical draw tube with the intake placed at the bottom and an outlet disposed near the top, a gear assembly attached to the top of the pump to achieve proper impeller speeds required to reach the targeted fluid pumping volume, and a rigid and segmented driveshaft connected to the gear assembly to drive the impeller placed near the intake of the pump, wherein the driveshaft includes a plurality of solid segments and hollow segments threaded together to thereby decrease vibration of the driveshaft at high RPMs.

Automatic fluid pump
An automatic fluid pump includes a pump body having a liquid channel and a mounting channel, the liquid channel having an inlet and an outlet and connected to a suction pipe and a delivery hose, respectively. A motor fan is disposed at a lower end of the suction pipe. A power controller is coupled to the pump body and circuit-connected to a battery, a terminal plate, and a switch. A valve case is coupled to the mounting channel in the form of a hopper formed at a lower end thereof with an inclined portion having an air hole. A valve case cap is coupled to the valve case. A main check valve is disposed on a lower surface of the valve case cap to open/close the through-holes. An auxiliary check valve is vertically moved up and down between the mounting channel and the air hole to open/close the air hole.
Variable frequency drive configuration for electric driven hydraulic fracking system
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.
