Abstract
Fluctuations in output of an AC electric motor are restrained without increasing electromagnetic noise of a boost converter. When subjecting the AC electric motor to rectangular wave voltage control, output torque T is controlled by varying a voltage phase φv. In a region where a voltage phase is large (φv=θ2), fluctuations in torque T relative to changes in a DC voltage VH corresponding to the amplitude of a rectangular wave voltage are larger than in a region where the voltage phase is small (φv=θ1). The AC electric motor is controlled such that the rectangular wave voltage control in a region where voltage phase φv is larger than a limit-phase line PLN indicated by a set of limit phases set for each DC voltage VH is avoided.
