The scalar control mode optimization of a pump unit electric drive for oil transportation on a refinery.

In this article, issues of increasing the efficiency of equipment for oil transportation are considered. The aim of this work is to optimize the control mode for the pumping unit for the transportation of oil refinery. The object of study is an electric drive pumping unit with an induction motor. Mathematical modeling is a research method. The pump unit energy consumption is calculated in various control modes. An optimal criterion for reducing energy consumption is proposed.
