Abstract
A motor drive that enables the elimination of distortion of a motor current caused by direct current voltage ripples with the use of a smoothing capacitor having a small capacity and refrigeration equipment. A motor drive includes a rectifier circuit, a smoothing capacitor, voltage detector, an inverter circuit, current sensor, and a controller configured to control the inverter circuit. The controller has a voltage controller configured to generate a voltage command value used for controlling the motor, a ripple frequency arithmetic unit configured to operate a ripple frequency included in the direct current voltage signal, and a harmonic suppressor configured to process a signal based on the direct current signal using an S controller having a gain near the ripple frequency and output a corrected amount. The inverter circuit is controlled based on a signal that the voltage command value is corrected using the corrected amount.
