An electric water pump for engine cooling system has an advantage which particularly in the cold start, the use of the electric water pump saves fuel and leads to a corresponding reduction in emissions. The canned type electric water pump without mechanical sealing elements was selected to meet the requirements for operational reliability and life. However, the electric water pump for internal combustion engine generates much more heat loss than for hybrid electric vehicle since it is operated by the electric power of high current and low voltage. In this study, the fluid flow and thermal characteristics of the canned type electric water pump as an inverter integrated water pump has been investigated under the effects of heat generation. The analysis conditions such as outdoor air temperature of $125^{\circ}C$, water pump speed of 6000 rpm, coolant temperature of $106^{\circ}C$ and coolant flow rate of 120 L/min was used as a standard condition. Therefore, flow fields and temperature distribution inside the water pump were obtained. Also, we checked the feasibility of the canned type for the electric water pump in comparison with the mechanical seal type.

This paper presents characteristic analysis of underwater bearing for canned type electric water pump. Characteristic analysis of underwater bearing was performed using self-developed performance tester, which capable of torque change, noise change, motor speed change and abrasion loss test with respect to temperature change of underwater bearing. The performance tester can be monitored in real time by designing the control unit using the Labview program. The performance experiment was performed through comparison of the silicon carbide (SIC) and the carbon bearing. From the experiment results, performance of SIC bearing was better than carbon bearing at the abrasion and temperature experiment.

자동차에 사용되는 전동식 워터펌프에 적용되는 모터는 CANNED TYPE의 모터 구조이다. 모터의 구동 부품인 로터는 플라스틱 사출물의 격벽 구조 내에 위치하며, 부동액에 침수되어 있는 상태로 회전을 하게 된다. 플라스틱 사출물 격벽 구조 외부에 Stator가 위치되어 Rotor가 회전이 가능하도록 한다. Rotor의 구성은 Magnet와 Core, Shaft로 구성되며, Magnet와 Core의 경우 부품 특성상 수분 침투에 부식되는 재질이기 때문에 부품의 기밀 유지는 매우 중요하다. 차량에 장착된 상태에서는 120도의 환경조건에서 구동이 가능하여야 하며, 내부압력이 1 Bar 이상의 압력에도 누수가 없어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이 조건을 만족하여 개발된 전동식 워터펌프의 불량을 검사하기 위하여 헬륨을 이용한 Leak 검사 자동화 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다.
