A method and equipment (apparatus) for estimating motor parameters includes: receiving an operating parameter of an electric motor, estimating an estimated first motor parameter based on the operating parameter and on an initially determined second motor parameter and estimating an estimated second motor parameter based on the operating parameter and on an initially determined first motor parameter. The equipment (apparatus) and the method further include estimating a revised estimated second motor parameter based on the estimated first motor parameter and on the operating parameter, and estimating a revised estimated first motor parameter based on the estimated second motor parameter and on the operating parameter.

Equipment and method for estimating a motor parameter

A drive system and method for controlling a synchronous motor having several phases, in which a method for controlling a drive system includes a synchronous motor having several phases comprises the steps: providing appropriate operating parameters for the synchronous motor by processing an input of the drive system; in case of a determination of a fault of one of the phases, calculating a zero sequence voltage for a neutral conductor based on motor parameters estimated by a parameter estimation algorithm based on detected operating parameters; and applying the calculated zero sequence voltage to the neutral conductor.
