Abstract: A rotary electric machine control device that controls a rotary electric machine that includes a rotor in which a permanent magnet is disposed so as to provide magnetic saliency, and that performs feedback control on the rotary electric machine on the basis of a deviation between a current command and a feedback current from the rotary electric machine in a d-q-axis vector coordinate system defined by a d-axis which extends in a direction of a magnetic field produced by the permanent magnet and a q-axis which is orthogonal to the d-axis.

Abstract: An inverter control section controls the inverter by controlling an armature current in a two-axis orthogonal coordinate system that rotates in synchronization with the rotary electric machine, the armature current being a vector obtained by synthesizing a field current and a drive current extending along respective axes of the orthogonal coordinate system. If it is determined that connection between the DC power source section and the inverter is in a blocked state, the inverter control section executes zero-torque control in which the inverter is controlled such that torque regenerated by the rotary electric machine becomes zero, and executes high-loss control in which the field current is varied so as to increase the armature current while maintaining a torque command provided in the zero-torque control.

Abstract: A rotating electrical machine control device that applies a high frequency current to a rotating electrical machine including a rotor having saliency, estimates a magnetic pole direction of the rotor on the basis of a high frequency component contained in a voltage command as a response component to the high frequency current, and controls the rotating electrical machine. A high frequency superimposing section sets an estimated d-q axis rotating coordinate system, and a magnetic pole direction adjusting section sets a high frequency coordinate system having a phase difference of the high frequency current command with respect to the estimated d-q axis rotating coordinate system. A steady estimation error correcting section calculates a magnetic flux interference estimation error as an error of the estimated value of the magnetic pole direction which is caused by the d-q axis magnetic flux interference.
