Disclosed is a dual motor unit for a flywheel mass accumulator, with at least two electric machines coupled to a common rotary body; wherein the electric machines have different power characteristics and the dual motor unit is adapted to provide a total operating power in an operating speed range (Ω) by an interaction of the electric machines. The power characteristic (P.sub.max) is non-linearly dependent on a rotational speed (ω) of the common rotary body.

Systems and methods are disclosed for determining an operating point for controlling an electric motor. An exemplary system may include a voltage monitor configured to determine a voltage applied to the electric motor. The system may also include a controller configured to determine the operating point based on the voltage. The controller may include a comparator configured to determine a difference between the voltage and a reference voltage. The controller may also include a regulator configured to generate a correction signal for reducing the difference. The controller may be configured to determine the operating point when the difference is below a predetermined threshold.

A control apparatus calculates a total loss change amount that is a power loss change amount of a motor control system including respective power loss change amounts of a converter, an inverter, and a motor of the motor control system. Based on the total loss change amount, during a correction-allowed period that is a period during which square wave control is performed, the control apparatus performs correction to decrease a current output voltage command value of the converter when the current output voltage command value is determined to be greater than the output voltage of the converter at which actual total power loss change amount becomes minimum. When the current output voltage command value is determined to be less than the output voltage of the converter at which actual total power loss change amount becomes minimum, the control apparatus performs correction to increase the current output voltage command value.
