Abstract

A method and an apparatus for direct torque control are specified for a three-phase machine fed via a harmonic filter, which method manages as far as possible without any major adaptation to already known DTC methods and DTC apparatuses. In addition, the oscillations caused by the filter are intended to be damped effectively. This is achieved in that a current flowing through the filter and/or a filter output voltage are/is measured, and the reference flux value and the reference torque value are corrected on the basis of the measured voltage and/or of the measured current. The correction comprises a transformation of the filter output voltage into a first component at right angles to a stator flux and into a second component parallel to the stator flux, as well as a reduction in the reference torque and flux values in proportion to the oscillating part of the filter output voltage.
