Abstract
A primary-side inverter is connected to three output terminals of six output terminals included in a motor with an open winding structure including windings of three independent phases and a secondary-side inverter is connected to the remaining three output terminals. Direct current power is supplied to the inverters, and a control device performs PWM control on the inverters by using a switching pattern in which the numbers of phases where each is turned on are equal, and in the switching pattern, ON of only an upper is continued in one phase from among the three phase outputs, OFF of only a lower is continued in another phase, and the upper and lower are alternately turned on and off such that mutual phases are opposite in the remaining one phase in one cycle of an electric angle of the motor over a plural carrier cycles in PWM control.
