Abstract

The present motor control device includes an inverter, a converter, and a control device. The control device has a rotation speed calculation unit that calculates a rotation speed of a motor; an optimum voltage calculation unit that calculates an optimum input voltage; a minimum voltage calculation unit that calculates a minimum input voltage required to operate the motor at a motor operating point; and a target value setting unit that sets either one of the optimum input voltage and the minimum input voltage as a target input voltage. In a case in which the set target torque exceeds a predetermined value, the target value setting unit sets the minimum input voltage lower than the optimum input voltage as the target input voltage.
