- The crude-oil pumping rig shown is driven at 20 rpm. The inside diameter of the well pipe is 2 in., and the diameter of the pump rod is 0.75 in. The length of the pump rod and the length of the column of oil lifted during the stroke are essentially the same, and equal to 6000 ft. During the downward stroke, a valve at the lower end of the pump rod opens to let a quantity of oil into the well pipe, and he column of oil is then lifted to obtain a discharge into the connecting pipeline. Thus, the amount of oil pumped in a given time depends upon the stroke of the lower end of the pump rod. Knowing that the upper end of the rod at D is essentially sinusoidal with a stroke of 45 in. and the specific weight of crude oil is 56.2 lb/ft3 determine (a) the output of the well in ft3. /min if the shaft is rigid, (b ) the output of the well in ft3 /min if the stiffness of the rod is 2210 N/m, the equivalent mass of the oil and shaft is 290 kg, and damping is negligible.arrow_forwardA radial cam with a reciprocating follower is to be driven by a constant-speed motor at 150 rpm. The follower is to start from a dwell, accelerate to a uniform velocity of 25 in/s, maintain this velocity for 1.25 in of rise, decelerate to the top of the lift, return, and then dwell for 0.10 s. The total lift is to be 3.00 in.

The line of reciprocation of follower passes through the camshaft axis. The maximum radius of cam is 20 mm. If the roller diameter is 8 mm.

One cycle of the cam has the following motion requirements: Rise to 40 mm in 1.5 s, Dwell for 0.25 s, Fall for 20 mm in 1 s; Dwell for 0.25 s; Fall a further 20 mm in 1 s and the cycle repeats after this.
