Abstract

A control method implemented in a variable speed drive for starting a synchronous electric motor, said method including the application, as input, of a reference speed according to a predefined speed profile, the determination of a reference position based on the reference speed that is applied as input, the determination of a voltage in a rotating frame of reference, based on the reference speed that is applied as input, the determination of control voltages to be applied to each output phase depending, on the one hand, on the determined reference position and, on the other hand, on said voltage determined in the rotating frame of reference, and the application of the control voltages to each output phase to obtain an alignment of the position of the rotor of said motor with the reference position.
