Abstract

The method for controlling a voltage/frequency converter controlled single-phase or polyphase electric motor evaluates the phase shifting between the EMF and BEMF by way of the deviation between the zero crossing of the phase current and the voltage produced by the intrinsic induction and readjusts the frequency of the converter accordingly. The measurement of the intrinsic induction is effected in the zero crossing of the current courses of the associated phase, wherein during the measurement the phase is separated from the supply network.
