  • Patent number: 11799405
    Abstract: In sensorless control for a rotary machine, when variations in inductances for U, V, W phases due to manufacturing error are great, imbalance occurs among detected currents for the respective phases. Thus, estimation error of a magnetic pole position of a rotor increases, so that positioning accuracy is reduced. Correction filters for imparting gains in accordance with rotary machine constants for the respective phases are provided to control means or magnetic pole position calculation means, thereby correcting the imbalance occurring among the detected currents for the respective phases.
