Located at the National University in Bogotá,Colombia,this paper presents the development of the integration of kinematics,simplified kinetic and zero-dimensional models of indicator diagram of a double-acting,single-cylinder steam engine;the model integration is done for two configurations of the distribution system to simulate the instantaneous torque and the average.Two simulations are carried out at different steam entry conditions and an advance angle of 0°for the distribution system,fed with the data obtained from the characterization and metrological survey of the VE(vapor engine)parts in a CAD(computer-aided design)system.It is verified that integrating the models constitutes a simulation tool that allows for the instantaneous torque deliveries and average torque of the accurate operation’s VE.

Few-shot working condition recognition of a sucker-rod pumping system based on a 4-dimensional time-frequency signature and meta-learning convolutional shrinkage neural network

The accurate and intelligent identification of the working conditions of a sucker-rod pumping system is necessary. As onshore oil extraction gradually enters its mid-to late-stage, the cost required to train a deep learning working condition recognition model for pumping wells by obtaining enough new working condition samples is expensive. For the few-shot problem and large calculation issues of new working conditions of oil wells, a working condition recognition method for pumping unit wells based on a 4-dimensional time-frequency signature (4D-TFS) and meta-learning convolutional shrinkage neural network (ML-CSNN) is proposed. First, the measured pumping unit well workup data are converted into 4D-TFS data, and the initial feature extraction task is performed while compressing the data. Subsequently, a convolutional shrinkage neural network (CSNN) with a specific structure that can ablate low-frequency features is designed to extract working conditions features. Finally, a meta-learning fine-tuning framework for learning the network parameters that are susceptible to task changes is merged into the CSNN to solve the few-shot issue. The results of the experiments demonstrate that the trained ML-CSNN has good recognition accuracy and generalization ability for few-shot working condition recognition. More specifically, in the case of lower computational complexity, only few-shot samples are needed to fine-tune the network parameters, and the model can be quickly adapted to new classes of well conditions.

Intelligent Recognition Method of Insufficient Fluid Supply of Oil Well Based on Convolutional Neural Network

Traditional methods for judging the degree of insufficient fluid supply in oil wells have low efficiency and limited accuracy. To address this problem, a method for intelligently identifying the degree of insufficient fluid supply in oil wells based on convolutional neural networks is proposed in this paper. Firstly, 5000 indicator diagrams with insufficient liquid supply were collected from the oilfield site, and a sample set was established after preprocessing;then based on the AlexNet model, combined with the characteristics of the indicator diagram, a convolutional neural network model including 4 layers of convolutional layers, 3 layers of down-pooling layers and 2 layers of fully connected layers is established. The backpropagation, ReLu activation function and dropout regularization method are used to complete the training of the convolutional neural network;finally, the performance of the convolutional neural network under different iteration times and network structure is compared, and the super parameter optimization of the model is completed. It has laid a good foundation for realizing the self-adaptive and intelligent matching of oil well production parameters and formation fluid supply conditions. It has certain application prospects. The results show that the accuracy of training and verification of the method exceeds 98%, which can meet the actual application requirements on site.
