This paper describes a fully automatic oil-pipe-line pumping station built by the A.S.M.E. Special Research Committee on Automatic Pipe-Line Pumping Stations. The station is in operation at the grounds of the International Petroleum Exposition at Tulsa, Okla., and is being used as an experimental laboratory to complete the development of automatic pumping and to fully test out and coordinate the equipment units used in its construction. When this development is completed, the committee will make a final report indicating all changes, and will give a description of the piping and electrical circuits finally resulting from this research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
