[0053] An initial value 71 of the induced voltage coefficient is K.sub.e*. A first active power calculation unit 72 calculates a first active power P.sub.c, in accordance with Expression (9), by using the voltage command values v.sub.dc** and v.sub.qc** of the d axis and the q axis, and the current detection values i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc of the d axis and the q axis.
[Expression 9]
P.sub.c=v.sub.dc**i.sub.dc+v.sub.qc**i.sub.qc (9)
[0054] In order to respond to both powering/regenerating operation modes, the output of the first active power calculation unit 72 is sent to an absolute value calculation unit 73, and an absolute value |P.sub.c| of the first active power P.sub.c is calculated.
[0055] The second active power calculation unit 74 calculates a second active power P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}, in accordance with Expression (10), by using the current command values i.sub.d* and i.sub.q* of the d axis and the q axis, the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )}, R, L.sub.d, and L.sub.q, which are the electric circuit coefficient of the magnet motor 10, and the estimation value K.sub.e** of the induced voltage coefficient.

P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}=R(i.sub.d*.sup.2+i.sub.q*.sup.2)+(L.sub.d*−L.sub.q*)i.sub.d*i.sub.q*+ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )}K.sub.e**i.sub.q* (10)
[0056] In order to respond to both the powering/regenerating operation modes, the output of the second active power calculation unit 74 is sent to an absolute value calculation unit 75, and an absolute value |P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}| of the second active power P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )} is calculated.
[0057] A PI control unit 76 performs Proportional (P)+Integration (I) Control so that the absolute value |P.sub.c| of the first active power P.sub.c follows the absolute value |P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}| of the second active power P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}, and calculates a correction value ΔK.sub.e0* of the induced voltage coefficient.

The estimation value K.sub.e** of the induced voltage coefficient is calculated in accordance with Expression (11) by using the correction value ΔK.sub.e* and the initial value K.sub.e* of the induced voltage coefficient.

[0063] In
[0064] On the other hand, in this example, the first active power P.sub.c not including information of the setting value K.sub.e* of the induced voltage coefficient is calculated by Expression (9) using the voltage command values v.sub.dc* and v.sub.qc* and the current detection values i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc of the d axis and the q axis. Further, the second active power P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )} is calculated by Expression (10) using the current command values i.sub.d* and i.sub.q* of the d axis and the q axis, the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )}, the electric circuit coefficients R, L.sub.d, and L.sub.q of the magnet motor, and the estimation value K.sub.e** of the induced voltage coefficient.

[0067] In this example, the same load torque as that of the comparative example in
[0068] <Check of Control Characteristics>
[0069] Next, the check of the control characteristics according to this example will be described by using
[0070] A voltage detector 21 and a current detector 22 are connected to the power conversion device 1 driving the magnet motor 10, and an encoder 23 is attached to the shaft of the magnet motor 10. Further, for example, a personal computer (PC) is connected to the voltage detector 21, the current detector 22, and the encoder 23, each detection value thereof is acquired, and a program is executed to perform processing. Such processing mainly executes the processing of a calculation unit 24 of a vector voltage/current component, and the processing of a calculation unit 25 according to Expression 12.
[0071] That is, the calculation unit 24 of the vector voltage/current component receives the voltage detection values (v.sub.uc, v.sub.vc, and v.sub.wc) of the three-phase alternating current, which are the output of the voltage detector 21, the current detection values (i.sub.uc, i.sub.vc, and i.sub.wc) of the three-phase alternating current, and a position θ, which is the output of the encoder, and calculates a detection value ω.sub.rc obtained by differentiating v.sub.dc and v.sub.qc, which are the vector voltage component, i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc, which are the vector current component, and the position θ.
[0072] The calculation unit 25 calculates the estimation value K.sub.e{circumflex over ( )} of the induced voltage coefficient by using Expression (12).
[0073] It is found that even in a case where the induced voltage coefficient K.sub.e* set in the controller of the power converter 2 is shifted (changed), the magnitude of the induced voltage coefficient K.sub.e{circumflex over ( )} is accurately detected without being changed. By displaying the value of the induced voltage coefficient K.sub.e{circumflex over ( )} with respect to the induced voltage coefficient K.sub.e*, or a graph representing the progress of such coefficients on the screen of the PC, the effect of the control characteristics according to this example can be checked.
[0074] Note that, in this example, the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )} is calculated, but the encoder may be attached to the magnet motor 10 to detect the frequency ω.sub.rc.
[0075] According to this example, even in a case where there is an error in the inductance setting values L.sub.d* and L.sub.q* of the d axis and the q axis, the sensitivity of the second component of Expression (10) is lowered when the current command value i.sub.d* of the d axis is set close to zero, and thus, highly accurate control characteristics can be achieved regardless of the powering/regenerating operation modes.

On the other hand, in Example 2, the gains (K.sub.p and K.sub.i) are changed in accordance with the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )} or the current command value i.sub.q* of the q axis.
[0078] The estimation calculation unit 7 of the induced voltage coefficient, illustrated in
[0079] In Example 2, in the PI control 762, by changing the gains (K.sub.p and K.sub.i) of the proportional control and the integration control approximately in proportion to the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )} or the current command value i.sub.q* of the q axis, the absolute value |P.sub.c| of the first active power P.sub.c is changed to the absolute value |P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )} | of the second active power P.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}, in accordance with the frequency or the current value. Accordingly, highly accurate control characteristics can be achieved in a shorter period of time from a low speed region to a high speed region and from a light load to a heavy load.

On the other hand, in Example 3, the active power P.sub.c is calculated by using an amplitude value V.sub.1* of a voltage command and an amplitude value i.sub.1 of current detection of the three-phase alternating current, and a cosine signal of a phase θ.sub.vi.

[0092] The second reactive power calculation unit 745 calculates a second reactive power Q.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}, in accordance with Expression (19), by using the current command values i.sub.dc* and i.sub.qc* of the d axis and the q axis, the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )}, R, L.sub.d, and L.sub.q, which are the electric circuit coefficient of the magnet motor 10, and the estimation value K.sub.e** of the induced voltage coefficient.

The PI control unit 76 performs Proportional (P)+Integration (I) Control so that the absolute value |Q.sub.c| of the first reactive power Q.sub.c follows the absolute value |Q.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}| of the second reactive power Q.sub.c{circumflex over ( )}, and calculates the correction value ΔK.sub.e0* of the induced voltage coefficient.
[0094] The L.P.F 77 has a gain with a time coefficient of T, in which the correction value ΔK.sub.e0* of the induced voltage coefficient is input, and the correction value ΔK.sub.e* is calculated.

[0104] A switch 716 selects an output signal of the estimation calculation unit 7114 of the induced voltage coefficient in the low speed region, selects an output signal of the estimation calculation unit 7112 of the induced voltage coefficient in a medium-high speed region, and outputs each output signal as the estimation value K.sub.e** of the induced voltage coefficient. In such a switching operation, for example, a case where Expression (21) is satisfied is determined as the medium-high speed region, and a case where Expression (21) is not satisfied is determined as the low speed region, by using the electric circuit coefficient of the magnet motor 10 and the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )}.
[0105] According to Example 7, the sensitivity of the low speed region can be lowered by the setting error of resistance (that is, since the resistance is not included in Expression (19)). The sensitivity of the medium-high speed region can be lowered by the setting error of the inductance (that is, since an inductance difference (L.sub.d*−L.sub.q*) of Expression (10) decreases). Accordingly, in all the speed regions, highly accurate control characteristics can be achieved.
Example 8
[0106]
[0107] Examples 1 to 7 are an example of estimating the induced voltage coefficient by calculating the power. In contrast, Example 8 is an example of estimating the temperature of the magnet motor 10.
[0108] A rotor temperature estimation calculation unit 121, and a host controller 122 such as a programmable logic controller (PLC) or an IOT controller, which manages the state of the magnet motor, are added to the power conversion device 1 illustrated in
[0109] The rotor temperature estimation calculation unit 121 calculates a rotor temperature estimation value Temp (° C.) of the magnet motor 10 by Expression (27) using the estimation value K.sub.e** of the induced voltage coefficient. Here, it is assumed that the induced voltage coefficient decreases by 10% with a temperature change of 100° C., and the induced voltage coefficient at a temperature of 20° C. is set to K.sub.e0.
[0110] Further, the temperature estimation value Temp is fed back to the controller 122, and the controller 122 determines an optimum pattern of a torque current command id* and an excitation current command by using Expression (28).
[0111] According to Example 8, as with Example 1, highly accurate control characteristics can be achieved.
Example 9
[0112] A magnet motor driving system according to Example 9 will be described with reference to
[0113] Such a magnet motor driving system includes the power conversion device 1, and the induction motor 1 driven thereby. Further, in an example, a terminal 31 such as a personal computer (PC) 311, a tablet 312, and a smart phone 313 is connected to the power conversion device 1. In addition, in an internal memory of a microcomputer including the power converter 2 or the other constituents to be mounted on the power conversion device 1, a control response frequency or a control gain (a proportional gain 26 and an integration gain 27) set in the proportional control or the integration control is set. The terminal 31 controls the power conversion device 1, and thus, may be referred to as a host device.
[0114] In an example, the proportional gain 26 and the integration gain 27 of the power conversion device 1 can be set and changed in accordance with an instruction from the terminal 31. In addition, in another example, the proportional gain 26 and the integration gain 27 of the power conversion device 1 can be set and changed in accordance with an instruction of a digital operator 112 of the power conversion device 1.
[0115] Note that, the proportional gain 26 and the integration gain 27 described above can also be set on a fieldbus such as a PLC, a local area network connected to a computer, and an IOT controller.
[0116] Note that,
[0117] According to the induction motor driving system of Example 9, highly accurate control characteristics can be achieved in position sensorless vector control.

Other Modification Examples
[0118] Examples 1 to 8 described above can be further modified in various manners. Hereinafter, some modification examples will be described.
[0119] For example, in Examples 1 and 2, the current detection values i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc are used in Expression (9) that is the first active power Pc and Expression (18) that is the first reactive power Qc, but the current command values i.sub.d* and i.sub.q* may be used. In addition, the current command values i.sub.d* and i.sub.q* are used in Expression (10) that is the second active power Pc{circumflex over ( )} and Expression (19) that is the second reactive power Qc{circumflex over ( )}, but the current detection values i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc may be used.
[0120] In addition, in Examples 1 to 7, the voltage correction values Δv.sub.dc and Δv.sub.qc are prepared from the current command values i.sub.d* and i.sub.q* and the current detection values i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc, and are subjected to the calculation represented by Expression (3) of adding the voltage correction value and a voltage reference value of vector control, but intermediate current command values i.sub.d** and i.sub.q** represented in Expression (22), which are used in vector control calculation, may be prepared from the current command values i.sub.d* and i.sub.q* and the current detection values i.sub.dc and i.sub.qc, and vector control calculation represented in Expression (23) may be performed by using the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )} and the electric circuit coefficient of the magnet motor 10.

[0129] In addition, the vector control calculation may be performed by Expression (26) using a primary delay signal i.sub.qctd of the current command value i.sub.d* of the d axis and the current detection value i.sub.qc of the q axis, the frequency estimation value ω.sub.r{circumflex over ( )}, and the electric circuit coefficient of the induction motor 1.
[0130] As another example, in the examples described above, in the frequency/phase estimation calculation unit 9, the frequency estimation value is calculated by Expression (7), but the encoder may be attached to the magnet motor 10, and the frequency detection value may be calculated from an encoder signal.
[0131] In addition, in the preferred example (refer to
[0132] Note that, in all the examples described above, a switching element configuring the power converter 2 may be a silicon (Si) semiconductor element, or may be a wideband gap semiconductor element such as silicon carbide (SiC) or gallium nitride (GaN).
[0133] As described above, according to some examples, by using the active power or the reactive power, it is possible to achieve the power conversion device having highly accurate control characteristics without adjusting the electric circuit coefficient of the magnet motor that is set in the controller.
