Abstract

Equivalent systems (analogs) are employed in developing a model of the drive mechanism in a sucker-rod borehole pump. Normal and emergency pump operation is simulated on the basis of Matlab-Simulink software. The rod column is regarded as a coupled sequence of active quadrupoles. The results of the simulation are compared with experimental data, and recommendations are made for reducing the energy consumption.
