SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PUMP CONTROL

The present invention is a method and system for controlling a motor attached to a variable displacement pump for providing a supercritical fuel and fuel pressure to a plurality of fuel injectors of a vehicle engine. The system includes: a pump having a motor; a tachometer sensor for measuring a rotational displacement of a motor shaft and for sending a tachometer count value to a memory device; an engine control unit configured to generate a rotational displacement vs. pressure profile of the pump based on the displacement value and pressure value; an accumulator attached to the output of the pump; and a control method that allows for a look ahead and prediction of the pump requirements needed in a future cycle based on current demand to allow for an efficient fuel injection pump.
