Plunger Pumps Pulsation Dampener Designs
This document summarizes a parametric study evaluating design parameters for pulsation dampeners on plunger pumps. The study uses a pulsation model to examine the effects of:
1) Pump system configuration, finding that complex piping can significantly impact pulsations compared to just the pump package.
2) Dampener location, finding pulsations generally increase as the dampener moves farther from the pump, and are still high when located next to the pump due to quarter-wave resonances.
3) Dampener neck geometry, finding pulsations decrease with a larger neck diameter and shorter neck length to maximize the dampener's effect.
The study also examines the impacts of fluid compressibility and

Pumps presentation
Pumps are mechanical devices that use kinetic energy to move fluids by decreasing pressure in the pump's suction and increasing pressure in the discharge. There are two main types of pumps: positive displacement pumps which move a fixed volume of fluid with each cycle, and centrifugal pumps which use an impeller to accelerate fluid and increase pressure. Common industrial pumps include centrifugal pumps like axial flow, mixed flow, and vertical turbine pumps as well as positive displacement pumps like reciprocating, screw, and gear pumps. Pumps have components like a casing, impeller, shaft, and seals and are classified according to their method of moving fluid.
Hydraulic beginner
This document provides an overview of hydraulics, including comparisons to other systems like pneumatics and electronics, basic hydraulic principles regarding force and pressure, and descriptions of key hydraulic components such as cylinders, valves, pumps, and control systems. It also includes diagrams of common hydraulic symbols.
Centrifugal Pump Bearings
Bearings are crucial components in centrifugal pumps that serve three important functions: locating the rotating shaft, allowing rotation with minimal friction, and absorbing radial and axial loads. The most commonly used bearings are single and double row ball bearings, but heavier duty pumps use double row angular contact bearings arranged in a back-to-back configuration to accommodate tilting moments. Proper lubrication, sealing, and protection from contamination are necessary to ensure long-lasting bearing performance and increased pump reliability.
RCFA Success of Root Cause Failure Analysis
This document discusses how to make root cause failure analysis (RCFA) a successful business improvement strategy. It notes that while many companies adopt RCFA, they often abandon it when they do not see benefits. RCFA is more effective at finding systematic causes of problems and improving business systems rather than solving individual problems. The document outlines how RCFA works best when the learnings are used to improve broader business processes, not just fix single issues. It provides an example of how taking learnings from an RCFA and implementing them company-wide can prevent numerous future failures and significantly improve performance and profits over the long run.

This document discusses solutions to eliminate volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from the stuffing box of a reciprocating pump. It describes how traditional packing leaks outwards, wearing quickly. It then proposes a new system that forces leakage inwards using a pressurized barrier fluid. This involves injecting the barrier fluid between primary and secondary seals in the stuffing box at a pressure above the pulsating discharge pressure. An on-site trial at a butane pump significantly reduced fugitive emissions using this inward leakage packing arrangement. The final design configuration is shown, utilizing various components to pressurize the barrier fluid and return excess fluid to be reinjected.

Timoshenko: Vibration Problems in Engineering E-book Part-2
This document discusses methods for calculating the natural frequencies of torsional vibration in shafts with multiple rotating masses.
It first presents the general differential equations of motion for a shaft with n rotating masses connected by spring-like sections. Solving these equations yields a frequency equation with n roots, corresponding to the n natural frequencies of the system.
It then applies this approach to specific examples, such as a shaft with three discs. The natural frequencies are calculated from a cubic frequency equation. Approximate methods are also described to estimate the lowest frequencies in more complex systems by treating them as simpler subsystems.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoring
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Understanding Inductive Bias in Machine Learning
This presentation explores the concept of inductive bias in machine learning. It explains how algorithms come with built-in assumptions and preferences that guide the learning process. You'll learn about the different types of inductive bias and how they can impact the performance and generalizability of machine learning models.
The presentation also covers the positive and negative aspects of inductive bias, along with strategies for mitigating potential drawbacks. We'll explore examples of how bias manifests in algorithms like neural networks and decision trees.
By understanding inductive bias, you can gain valuable insights into how machine learning models work and make informed decisions when building and deploying them.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.
