Abstract
A magnetic pole initial position detection device includes: a direct-current excitation command generation section configured to generate a first command for causing a constant excitation current with a current phase fixed to a first phase to flow through the synchronous motor; a torque-zero determination section configured to determine whether a torque generated in the rotor of the synchronous motor is zero when the excitation current based on the first command flows through the synchronous motor; and a magnetic pole initial position acquisition section configured to acquire the magnetic pole initial position of the rotor of the synchronous motor on a basis of a rotor actual position at or near a point in time when the torque-zero determination section determines that the torque is zero; a number of pole pairs of the synchronous motor; and an excitation phase during direct-current excitation under the first command.
