Improving pumping plant efficiency does not always save energy

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 2002
California's energy crisis in 2001 resulted in a state-funded program for testing irrigation pumps and improving pumping plant efficiency, with the goal of reducing energy use in California agriculture.

Correlation Structure of Steady Well‐Type Flows Through Heterogeneous Porous Media: Results and Application

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Steady flow toward a fully penetrating well takes place in a natural porous formation, where the erratic spatial variations, and the raising uncertainty, of the hydraulic conductivity K are modeled within a stochastic framework which regards the log ...

Pump and Valve Inservice Testing: How Pump and Valve Testing Evolved [PDF]

open access: yesASME/NRC 2017 13th Pump and Valve Symposium, 2017
The O&M Code was developed when it was decided to move Pump and Valve In-Service Testing Requirements from ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section XI to a standalone Code. IST for Pumps was originally is ASME Section XI IWP and for Valves IWV. Safety and Relief Valves were a Power Test Code and not in the scope of the ASME Boiler and Pressure ...

Ergodicity of pumping tests [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2007
Standard interpretations of pumping tests in heterogeneous formations rely on effective representations of porous media, which replace spatially varying hydraulic properties with their constant counterparts averaged over the support volume of a test. Rigorous approaches for deriving representative (effective, apparent, upscaled, etc.) parameters employ

Translating pumping test data into groundwater model parameters: a workflow to reveal aquifer heterogeneities and implications in regional model parameterization

open access: yesFrontiers in Water
Groundwater modelers frequently grapple with the challenge of integrating aquifer test interpretations into parameters used by regional models. This task is complicated by issues of upscaling, data assimilation, and the need to assign prior probability ...

Groundwater Pumping Tests

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1989
Knowledge of aquifer system hydraulic porperties is an essential elemeat in design of water supply wells and well fields; hazardous waste contamination problems require knowledge of hydraulic properties for placement of monitoring wells, for detection of waste‐migration plumes and other monitoring needs, and for design of groundwater remediation ...

METHODS OF THE DETERMINATION OF THE HYDROGEOLOGICAL PARAMETERS ON THE RESULTS OF THE EXPERIMENTAL CONSTANT-RATE PUMPING TESTS FROM THE LAYERED AQUIFERS WITH OVERFLOW

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Геология и разведка, 2018
The methodical aspects of the processing and interpreting the results of the experimental filtration tests of the layered strata by the constant-rate pumping tests have been developed. Determination of the filtration and volumetric characteristics of the

Comparison of hydraulic conductivities by grain-size analysis,pumping, and slug tests in Quaternary gravels, NE Slovenia

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2015
Hydraulic conductivities (K) can be obtainedfrom pumping and slug tests as well as grain size analysis.Although empirical methods for such estimations are longstanding,there is still insufficient comparison of K valuesamong the various approaches.

Dynamic coupling modelling and application case analysis of high-slip motors and pumping units.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
To solve the issues and difficulties in the high-coupling modelling of beam pumping units and high-slip motors, external characteristic experiments of high-slip motors were performed where the external database and characteristic correlation equations of
