Abstract
Motorization in vehicles is expanding rapidly for fuel efficiency, customer comfort, convenience, and safety features. These new electric loads represent an increase in the required electric power. This has generated interest in new, higher power systems such as the 42V Power Net. The electro-hydraulic power steering (EHPS) system is one of these systems. This paper presents the development of the electric motor-driven pump unit for the EHPS system using a 42V power-Net. The interior type permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) can be applied to this system with more power density per volume for compactness of the EHPS. In order to improve the system, the IPMSM and its control method was optimized for improved torque characteristics and electric power consumption. The performances of both the pump unit and the IPMSM have been verified by experimental results. Finally, all in one type the electric motor-driven pump unit are developed from the experiment verification.
