Abstract
A motor drive apparatus includes: a dq-axis current controller converting phase current flowing through a synchronous motor into d-axis current and q-axis current, and controlling the phase current by determining a voltage command based on the d-axis current and a d-axis current command as well as the q-axis current and a q-axis current command; a voltage amplitude calculating unit obtaining voltage amplitude; a speed controller controlling rotational speed of the motor by determining the q-axis current command based on a speed command, the rotational speed, and a speed droop amount that reduces the speed command; a flux weakening controller performing flux control to limit amplitude of voltage output to the motor by determining the d-axis current command based on the voltage amplitude and a first voltage limit value; and a speed droop controller controlling the speed droop amount based on the voltage amplitude and a second voltage limit value.
