Automatic discharge capacity adjusting system and method for dosing pumpTechnical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field ground engineering, and particularly relates to an automatic discharge capacity adjusting system and method of a dosing pump.
Background
In the process of oil and gas field development, various chemical agents such as demulsifiers, paraffin removal (prevention) agents, scale inhibitors and the like are added to oil and gas gathering and transportation sites to ensure normal production of oil and gas fields. When adding the medicament, a metering pump (divided into a plunger type and a diaphragm type) is generally adopted to pressurize and drive the chemical medicament into a pipeline, and the dosage of the medicament is synchronously metered. The displacement of the metering pump can be adjusted according to the field requirement, and the general adjusting method comprises two methods: one is manual adjustment, and the stroke length of the metering pump is manually adjusted according to the requirement after the pump is stopped, so that the purpose of adjusting the displacement is achieved; the other is automatic adjustment, the stroke length or the reciprocating frequency of the metering pump is remotely and automatically adjusted in the operation process of the pump, and the purpose of adjusting the displacement is achieved.
In the process of oil gas gathering and transportation, due to the fact that most stations are discontinuously transported under the influence of various factors, the frequent stopping (or changing) of transportation of an upstream station causes that the dosing amount of a downstream station needs to be frequently adjusted (the dosing concentration is constant, and the dosing amount needs to be adjusted when the liquid amount changes). Along with the continuous progress of oil and gas field digital construction, the metering pump of manual regulation uses less and less, and metering pump field application that can automatically regulated increases. At present, the control methods for automatically adjusting the metering pump also have two types: firstly, frequency conversion control is carried out, namely, the reciprocating frequency of a metering pump is adjusted through a frequency conversion controller to realize displacement adjustment; and the second is electric stroke control, namely the stroke length of the metering pump is adjusted through an electric stroke controller, so that the displacement is adjusted.
At present, the automatic regulation dosing pump (metering pump) used in oil and gas fields adopts a single control mode, namely frequency conversion control or electric stroke control. Because the number of the upstream stations of the dosing station is large, if the upstream stations stop (or change the output) at the same time, the liquid output of the dosing station is changed greatly, the dosing amount cannot be adjusted to a required value at all by a single control mode, the dosing concentration may be greater than or less than a specified concentration during the period, so that the medicament is wasted or the preset dosing effect cannot be achieved, the production of an oil and gas field is influenced, and a plurality of stations have to replace dosing pumps.
In the prior art, a plurality of dosing systems and methods are available, the simultaneous adjustment of the stroke and the frequency of a dosing pump cannot be realized, and the requirement of the displacement adjustment of the dosing pump in an oil-gas field station library cannot be met.

The method comprises the following steps: collecting station-entering liquid volume information
Step two: calculating the dosing discharge capacity according to the preset dosing concentration according to the station entering liquid amount information collected in the step one;
step three: controlled dosing is carried out according to the dosing discharge capacity calculated in the step two;
step four: calculating the accumulated liquid amount at intervals of preset time, and when the error delta Q between the current accumulated liquid amount and the last accumulated liquid amount is not more than a preset value, keeping the discharge capacity of the medicine adding pump unchanged, and continuously adding medicine according to the current discharge capacity; and returning to the step one when the error delta Q between the current accumulated liquid amount and the last accumulated liquid amount is larger than a preset value.
The method provides a method for controlling the discharge capacity of the dosing pump when the reading of the flow meter changes frequently due to the influence of various factors, and can avoid the problem that equipment is damaged due to frequent changes of a frequency converter and an electric stroke regulator.
Example four:
the automatic discharge capacity adjusting method of the dosing pump is different from the third embodiment in that: the station entering liquid amount information is acquired by starting an automatic discharge capacity adjusting system of the dosing pump in the step one, theupper computer 2 acquires the station entering liquid amount information from theflowmeter 1, and the station entering liquid amount information is acquired by theupper computer 2 and then sent to thecontrol mechanism 3; in the second step, thecontrol mechanism 3 processes the acquired information of the station entering liquid amount, and the discharge amount of thedosing pump 6 is calculated according to the set dosing concentration; then thecontrol mechanism 3 controls thestroke control device 7 and the frequency converter 4 through the result obtained by calculation; thestroke control device 7 adjusts the stroke length of thedosing pump 6, and thedosing pump 6 starts to dose after the frequency of themotor 5 is adjusted by the frequency converter 4.
After the medicine is added, if the pressure fluctuation and the gas influence of liquid coming from each station at the upstream cause the sudden change of the reading of a flowmeter, the system automatically calculates the accumulated liquid quantity at preset time intervals, the time interval can be manually set according to actual production, when the error between the accumulated liquid quantity at this time and the accumulated liquid quantity at the last time is less than or equal to a preset value, the discharge quantity of the medicine adding pump is unchanged, the medicine is continuously added according to the current discharge quantity, and otherwise, the discharge quantity of the medicine adding pump is recalculated and readjusted.
The invention provides a dosing pump which is simultaneously matched with a variable frequency controller and an electric stroke controller, and the two adjusting modes are combined. When the requirement cannot be met by adopting one adjusting mode, the two modes are adjusted simultaneously, so that the adjusting range of the discharge capacity of the dosing pump can be greatly increased (at least increased by 1 time), the dosing requirement of the oil field medicament is better met, the waste of the medicament and the equipment replacement cost are reduced, and the technical guarantee is provided for the normal production of the oil and gas field. The dosing pump adopts the adjusting method when the variable frequency controller and the electric stroke controller are adopted, so that the problem that the dosing pump damages equipment when the dosing pump works for a long time under the condition of too low motor frequency or small stroke is avoided. The invention provides a method for controlling the discharge capacity of a dosing pump when the reading of a flow meter changes frequently due to the influence of various factors, which can avoid the problem that equipment is damaged due to frequent changes of a frequency converter and an electric stroke regulator.
Example five:
according to the automatic adjustment method for the discharge capacity of the dosing pump shown in FIG. 1, the difference from the third embodiment is that: the preset interval time for calculating the accumulated liquid amount in the step seven is 15-25 minutes.
The predetermined interval time is 20 minutes.
During actual use, after dosing is started, if the pressure fluctuation and the gas influence of liquid from each upstream station occur and the reading of the flow meter changes suddenly, the system automatically calculates the accumulated liquid amount every 20 minutes after starting the pump, and when the error between the accumulated liquid amount at this time and the accumulated liquid amount at the last time is smaller than or equal to a preset value, the dosing pump keeps dosing according to the current discharge amount. Otherwise, the discharge capacity of the dosing pump is recalculated and readjusted.
The predetermined interval time is set to 20 minutes, and is applicable to general system conditions. The set interval time is too long, and once the duration time of the large flow change is too long in the middle, the problems of medicament waste or insufficient dosing concentration to influence production are caused; the time is too short, and the dosing pump and the motor frequently change the working state, so that equipment is damaged or the service life is greatly shortened.
Example six:
according to the automatic adjustment method for the discharge capacity of the dosing pump shown in FIG. 1, the difference from the third embodiment is that: comprises the following steps
The method comprises the following steps: connecting all components of the automatic discharge capacity regulating system of the dosing pump;
step two: debugging an automatic discharge capacity adjusting system of the dosing pump;
step three: starting an automatic discharge capacity adjusting system of the dosing pump, and sending a station entering liquid quantity signal acquired from theflowmeter 1 to thecontrol mechanism 3 by theupper computer 2;
step four: thecontrol mechanism 3 processes the information of the station entering liquid amount and calculates the discharge capacity of thechemical dosing pump 6 according to the set chemical dosing concentration;
step five: thecontrol mechanism 3 controls thestroke control device 7 and the frequency converter 4 through the result obtained by calculation, thestroke control device 7 adjusts the stroke length of thedosing pump 6, and the frequency converter 4 adjusts the frequency of themotor 5;
step six: after the fifth step is finished, themedicine adding pump 6 starts to add medicine;
step seven: the control mechanism calculates the accumulated liquid amount at intervals of preset time, and when the error delta Q between the accumulated liquid amount at this time and the accumulated liquid amount at the last time is not larger than a preset value, the discharge capacity of the medicine adding pump is unchanged, and medicine adding is continued according to the current discharge capacity; and returning to the fourth step when the error delta Q between the current accumulated liquid amount and the last accumulated liquid amount is larger than the preset value.
In actual use, liquid volume signals of an approach flow meter are collected and transmitted to a P L C control cabinet, the P L C control cabinet determines the approach liquid volume according to the collected approach liquid volume signals, the discharge Q1 of adosing pump 6 is calculated according to set dosing concentration, the P L C control cabinet controls an electric stroke regulator to regulate the stroke length of thedosing pump 6, and considering that the fault is increased when a motor works for a long time due to insufficient heat dissipation when the frequency of a common motor is regulated to be below 30Hz, the stroke length is firstly regulated to the stroke length percentage L, namely Q1/(0.6Q) is regulated0) For some special motors, the frequency percentage F may be 40%, and the stroke length may be adjusted by adjusting the stroke length percentage L to Q1/(0.4Q) for the pump0). After the discharge capacity of the dosing pump is roughly adjusted by changing the stroke length, the frequency converter is controlled to adjust the rotating speed of the motor, so that the frequency of the motor reaches about 30Hz, and the frequency percentage F is about 60%, and the discharge capacity of the dosing pump meets the requirement of current dosingThe requirement of the medicine.
After the discharge capacity of thedosing pump 6 is automatically adjusted to a required value, the reading of the flow meter can be changed suddenly high and suddenly low sometimes due to the fluctuation of liquid pressure, the influence of gas and the like of each upstream station, and in order to avoid the frequency converter 4 and the electric stroke regulator from frequently changing to damage equipment, the following method is adopted for adjustment:
the system automatically calculates the accumulated liquid amount every 20 minutes after starting the pump, and in specific application, the time interval can also be manually set according to actual production, when the error delta Q between the accumulated liquid amount at this time and the accumulated liquid amount at the last time is less than or equal to 10%, the discharge capacity of the medicine adding pump is unchanged, and medicine adding is continuously carried out according to the current discharge capacity; when the accumulated liquid volume error delta Q is larger than 10%, the oil is generally started or stopped at an upstream station, and the discharge capacity of the dosing pump is immediately adjusted according to the fourth step to the sixth step.
