With the increasing concern over global energy crisis, energy saving in pumping units is becoming a significant subject. In terms of energy-saving and working efficiency, hydraulic pumping units outperform conventional pumping units. In this paper, a novel hydraulic pumping unit is proposed to overcome the existing drawbacks of conventional pumping units and present hydraulic pumping units. Firstly, this novel hydraulic pumping unit adopts a balanced mechanical structure, which means two oil wells are used in this system and the weight of their sucker rods can balance each other through the symmetrical arrangement. This kind of structural design not only saves the nominal power but also allows the system to continuously pump oil. Another feature of this hydraulic pumping unit is that it adopts the electro-hydraulic proportional load-sensing control technology, which makes the pressure and flow rate of the pump adapt to the requirement automatically in real time. The double wells of the system work alternatively under the normal condition and any one can work alone when the other needs maintenance, which improves the operating rate of pumping oil. After the main system parameters are calculated, conclusion can be drawn that both the nominal and operating power of this hydraulic pumping unit are relatively low. The model of the whole system is built based on mathematical dynamics and AMESim environment, and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed hydraulic pumping unit can achieve remarkable energy-saving performance.

Цель статьи – модифицировать ранее разработанный метод гидравлического расчета вакуумной перекачивающей системы для течения в рыбонасосной установке, работающей на промысловом судне. Динамика откачивания и закачивания воздуха в буферную емкость не изменилась. Анализ экспериментальных данных показал, что гидравлические потери по длине трубопровода прямо пропорциональны величине массовой доли рыбы. В судовых условиях потери напора в местных гидравлических сопротивлениях могут иметь тот же порядок, что и потери по длине. В отличие от традиционных судовых систем течение жидкости в вакуумных рыбонасосных установках (ВРУ) является нестационарным из-за увеличения давления в буферной емкости, как на этапе всасывания, так и на этапе вытеснения. Что приводит к необходимости совместного решения уравнения Бернулли для нестационарных течений совместно с дифференциальными уравнениями для давления и объема жидкости в буферной емкости. Увеличение длины трубопровода или перепада высот приводит к снижению скорости движения водорыбной смеси и увеличению давления в буферной емкости. Как следствие, возрастает продолжительность цикла работы ВРУ и падает производительность. The purpose of the article is to modify a previously developed method of hydraulic calculation of a vacuum pumping system for a flow in a fish pump unit operating on a fishing vessel. The dynamics of pumping out and pumping air into the buffer tank did not change. Analysis of experimental data showed that hydraulic losses along the length of the pipeline are directly proportional to the value of the mass fraction of fish. In shipboard conditions, head losses in local hydraulic resistances can be of the same order as length losses. In contrast to traditional ship systems, the fluid flow in vacuum fish pumping units (VFP) is unsteady due to an increase in pressure in the buffer tank, both at the stage of suction and at the stage of displacement. This leads to the need of jointly solve the Bernoulli equation for unsteady flows together with differential equations for the pressure and volume of fluid in the buffer tank. An increase in the length of the pipeline or the height difference leads to a decrease in the speed of movement of the water-fish mixture and an increase in pressure in the buffer tank. As a result, the duration of the VFP operation cycle increases and the productivity decreases.

According to the research results, the target functions of the task of optimizing the functioning of the units according to the criteria of the regime reliability, depending on the flow of the working fluid were synthesized, which made it possible to research the influence of the regime on the reliability of operation of electric and hydraulic subsystems of the pump unit. The extreme weight of local target functions of regime reliability of electric motor and the centrifugal pump in various (especially low-flow rate) operating modes are determined. It is proposed to optimize the operating modes of  pumping units of oil pumping station with the simultaneous use of the reliability criteria of electric drive and centrifugal pump. . It was established that the maximum values of reliability of electric drive and centrifugal pump are achieved at different values of the load, which requires the involvement of multi-criteria optimization methods. The problem of optimization of the established modes of the pump unit in the multicriteria setting, taking into account the technological limitations of its subsystems was formalized. The analysis of modern methods of solving the problem of multicriteria optimization of the steady modes of operation of pump units is carried out. The method of solving the multicriterion optimization problem is substantiated, which fully takes into account the influence of operation mode on the reliability of electric and hydraulic subsystems of pumping unit. It is revealed that the most appropriate method for solving this problem is the method of approaching an ideal (utopian) point in the criteria space. With this method, the desired ratio of criteria at the optimum point is the best. The value of the "agreed optimum" of liquid flow has been determined in order to choose the optimum for the reliability of operation mode of the pumping unit of oil pumping station.

Parametric finite element model for a commonly used telescopic boom structure of a certain type of truck-mounted crane has been established. Static analysis of the conventional design configuration was performed first. And then an optimization process has been carried out to minimize the total weight of the telescopic structures. The design variables include the geometric shape parameters of the cross-sections and the integrated structural parameters of the telescopic boom. The constraints include the maximum allowable equivalent stresses and the flexure displacements at the tip of the assembled boom structure in both the vertical direction and the circumferential direction of the rotating plane. Compared with the conventional design, the optimization design has achieved a significant weight reduction of up to 24.3%.

Mine drainage systems, which are used at the main drainage of mining enterprises, have a drive capacity of up to 1600kW. To reduce non-productive energy losses, as well as for the continuous operation of the mining company, mine pumps must be energy efficient and reliable. Analysis of downtime of drainage systems shows that the weak point is the unloading device. This fact can lead not only to the failure of the pumping unit, but also to possible prolonged downtime of the mine. The main disadvantage of the existing disk unloading devices of mine pumps is their low reliability and low service life, due to the rapid wear of the components of the unloading unit. The most vulnerable elements of the unloading device are the unloading rings. The need for frequent replacement and adjustment of the elements of the discharge unit is associated with disassembly and assembly of the pump directly in the pump chamber. Such actions require significant costs of unproductive manual labor of service personnel, and rapid wear of parts of the unloading device necessitates their constant replenishment. Malfunctions in the unloading device can cause significant pump failures. To increase the reliability and energy efficiency of mine drainage systems, the method of control of the unloading device was used. During the experimental studies it was found that cavitation phenomena during the operation of pumping units are absent and, accordingly, can not be the cause of wear of the elements of the unloading unit. When the pumps are operating in steady state, the displacement of the rotors was monitored for 3-4 hours on each pump unit. After data processing, it was obtained that the wear of the surface of the unloading rings occurs at a rate of 0.05-0.15mm in one hour. To determine the wear of the rings of unloading during start-up - stop of the pump, at first the indicators of measuring devices at the established mode of operation of the pump unit were fixed. Then the pump was turned off and on again. After starting the pump unit, we made sure that the operating mode of the unloading device did not change and compared the readings of the shaft position indicator before stopping and after starting the pump. From the measurements made it followed that stopping and starting the pump does not lead to noticeable wear of the unloading device. Therefore, it can be assumed that mainly the wear of the discharge rings occurs during the steady operation of the pump unit.

In this study, the combined effect of graphene oxide (GO) and oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (OMWCNTs) on material properties of the magnesium oxychloride (MOC) phase 5 was analyzed. The selected carbon-based nanoadditives were used in small content in order to obtain higher values of mechanical parameters and higher water resistance while maintaining acceptable price of the final composites. Two sets of samples containing either 0.1 wt. % or 0.2 wt. % of both nanoadditives were prepared, in addition to a set of reference samples without additives. Samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy, which were used to obtain the basic information on the phase and chemical composition, as well as the microstructure and morphology. Basic macro- and micro-structural parameters were studied in order to determine the effect of the nanoadditives on the open porosity, bulk and specific density. In addition, the mechanical, hygric and thermal parameters of the prepared nano-doped composites were acquired and compared to the reference sample. An enhancement of all the mentioned types of parameters was observed. This can be assigned to the drop in porosity when GO and OMWCNTs were used. This research shows a pathway of increasing the water resistance of MOC-based composites, which is an important step in the development of the new generation of construction materials.
