Summary:

This paper is concerned with power consumption analysis for conventional steering system, the importance of duty cycle before choose appropriate pump drive system, and the energy saving potential of the proposed systems. After reviewing the recent efforts in developing energy-efficient steering system, two new on-demand pump drive systems are proposed to provide varying flow according to vehicle/engine speed: one is the combination of a sized pump without flow control valve and an Electrical Power Hydraulic Steering (EPHS) unit; the other is the combination of multiple EPHS units. The energy saving advantage of the combinations will be emphasized for different duty cycles
