Publication number: 20240146223Abstract: The electric machine system includes an electric machine having a rotor and a coil; the power converter that outputs an output current to the coil of the electric machine; and a controller that controls the power converter. The controller includes a signal output unit that outputs a signal for controlling a mode of the output current to the power converter; and an abnormality detection unit that receives an abnormality signal indicating an abnormal situation. The signal output unit outputs a demagnetization control signal to the power converter when the abnormality detection unit receives the abnormality signal. The power converter causes a demagnetization current for a demagnetization magnetic flux that demagnetizes the permanent magnet of the rotor to flow through the coil in response to an input of the demagnetization control signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Koji YAMAGUCHI, Kenshiro KATSURA, Takuya SHIMOTSU, Satoshi YAZAKI
