Speed of pumps

Switch on and off and control the speed of pump and fan motors. Control valves and dampers.

The bottle test sample is typical of the average emulsion only at the time of sampling. A variation in the characteristics of the emulsion flowing to the treater is likely simply because of combinations of varied speeds of pump strokes for wells producing different water-content levels. 

Optional speed of pump (pl/s), pumped volume (pi) (up to sequentially added eight volumes), delay time between pumping events (s) Position, command (approach), applied potential (mV), stop case (% change of bulk current signal), maximum driving way (pm), driving speed (pm/s)... 

In contrast, in Rejowski and Pinto (2008) the speed of pumping is a decision variable which leads to a non-linear term in the objective function since both pump rate and batch length have to be determined. Furthermore, this work is noteworthy as it explicitly accounts for the inventory holding costs, but at the expense of another non-linear term in the objective function. Note that the time-continuous formulation requires that both the period s length and the tank level in a period are decision variables. The product of these terms determines the holding costs. Cafaro and Cerda (2004, 2008) approximate the holding costs by averaging the stock levels at the depots. 

Slickwater fracturing is a method or system of hydrofracturing that involves the addition of chemicals to water to increase the fluid flow. Fluid (friction reducer) can be pumped down the wellbore at a rate as high as 100 bbl/min to fracture the shale otherwise, without the use of slickwater, the top speed of pumping is about 60 bbl/min.

All manipulated variables which are direct inputs to the process are flows or functions of flow. (Cascade control loops are excluded from the above, with the exception of flow loops, because the output of the primary controller is not a process input.) The process cannot be manipulated without changing the position of valves or dampers or the speed of pumps or compressors, all of which affect flow. The relationships between flow and controller output vary greatly, available pressure drop being a significant factor. The fact remains that in order to bring about control of any variable, in any process, flow must be made to change. From this definition, flow may be considered both a controlled and a manipulated variable-this coincidence was discussed in Chap. 3.
