Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for rotor and stator temperature compensation for field weakening current. The method comprises generating a phase voltage feed back signal Vbased in part on pre-defined optimal current commands (I* and I*) received by the IPM, generating a phase voltage command (V) based in part on a temperature of a magnetic rotor and stator of the IPM, and generating a phase voltage error (V) by subtracting the phase voltage feed back signal (V) from the phase voltage command (V). The method further comprises generating a d-axis command current correction value (ΔI) and a q-axis command current correction value (ΔI) from the phase voltage error (V); and adjusting the pre-defined optimal current commands (I* and I*) by the d-axis and the q-axis command current correction values (ΔIand ΔI).
