Equations for predicting the behavior of sucker-rod pumping systems including the coupled dynamic effects of rod and fluid motion and kinematics of the surface pumping unit which were presented in Part 1 of this two-part paper series. These equations are used together with complementary sucker-rod system predictive formulas for parametric studies in this paper. Example problems are used to investigate the effects of well and fluid parameters on sucker-rod design parameters and the results are compared against calculations using the API Bulletin 11L3.
