  • Patent number: 10666177
    Abstract: A method for operating an inverter for coupling an electric machine designed for operation on AC voltage, to an AC voltage network, includes the steps of determining a torque-related machine current component composed of electrical machine currents of the electrical machine, detecting an actual value for a magnetic flux, determining an actual value of a machine torque of the electric machine by linking the detected magnetic flux to the torque-related machine current component, determining a torque difference between the actual value of the machine torque and a setpoint value of the machine torque of the electric machine, filtering the torque difference by a bandpass filter which is tuned to a machine-side natural frequency, determining a compensation signal by processing a filter output signal of the bandpass filter, and superimposing the compensation signal on the network control signal and/or the machine control signal.
