Abstract
A motor-driven compressor is provided with a motor including a rotor, a housing including an inlet through which low-pressure refrigerant serving as a low-pressure fluid is drawn in, a compression unit that compresses the low-pressure refrigerant and discharges compressed high-pressure fluid, an inverter that drives the motor, and a controller that controls the inverter. If the rotor is activating in a reverse direction that is opposite to a forward direction when activating the motor, the controller obtains a position of a d-axis of the rotor and controls the inverter so that current flows to the obtained d-axis and so that frequency of current flowing to the motor decreases as time elapses.
