Abstract
A motor can be controlled in a user-friendly manner so that a phase current based on an input command torque command value is caused to flow to at least one among U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase windings of the motor, so that a predetermined in-phase current is superimposed on the phase current and caused to flow to at least one among the windings. The motor is controlled such that energization to one winding corresponding to a predetermined energization stop phase is stopped, for example, so that energization to the U-phase winding is stopped, and so that a V-phase current, a W-phase current and an in-phase current are caused to flow to each winding corresponding to a phase other than the energization stop phase, for example, so that the V-phase current, the W-phase current and the in-phase current are caused to flow to the V-phase winding and the W-phase winding.
