Description

The present invention relates to a rotating electrical machine control device .

  2. Description of the Related Art In a rotating electrical machine for driving an electric vehicle, a rotating electrical machine control device is known that prevents deterioration in torque accuracy due to a change in residual magnetic flux density of a magnet due to a temperature change of the magnet. For example, in the invention described in Patent Document 1, the change in the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet is corrected by the d-axis current, and the torque is kept constant.

  However, since the magnet is embedded in the rotor, the temperature and the magnitude of the magnetic flux cannot be directly measured. In addition, the heat generation of the coil is caused by the electrical resistance and increases mainly as the torque of the rotating electrical machine increases. On the other hand, the heat generation of the magnet is caused by the change of the magnetic flux passing through the magnet. However, it increases as the rotational speed increases.

  Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As an example of the rotating electrical machine of the present invention, a motor, particularly an inner rotor motor will be described.

-First embodiment-
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of an electric vehicle 200 equipped with a motor drive device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Note that broken line arrows in FIG. 1 indicate the flow of signals. The electric vehicle 200 is connected to the battery 1, the motor 2, the inverter power supply 3, the speed reducer 4, the differential mechanism 5, the drive wheel 6, the control calculation unit 8, and the control calculation unit 8, which will be described later. The various sensors 9-15 are provided. The motor drive device 100 includes a motor 2, an inverter power supply 3, and a control calculation unit 8.

  The inverter power supply 3 converts the direct current supplied from the battery 1 into a three-phase alternating current by pulse width modulation (PWM) and supplies the three-phase alternating current to the motor 2. The motor 2 converts electrical energy supplied as a three-phase alternating current from the inverter power supply 3 into kinetic energy. The power generated as kinetic energy by the motor 2 is transmitted to the speed reducer 4, and after being decelerated by a gear type speed reducing mechanism inside the speed reducer 4, is transmitted to the left and right drive wheels 6 via the differential mechanism 5. This is a driving force for driving the vehicle.

  A braking device 7 for braking the vehicle is provided in the vicinity of the drive wheel 6. The braking device 7 is provided with a hydraulic booster, and the driving wheel 6 is pressed by a hydraulic operation force generated by the hydraulic booster to generate a frictional force. This converts kinetic energy into thermal energy and brakes the vehicle. The braking device 7 can reduce the rotational speed of the motor 2 by braking the vehicle.

  In FIG. 1, the control calculation unit 8 includes a CPU and a memory, and controls a motor 2 and a braking device 7 by executing a motor control program described later. The control calculation unit 8 sends a command to the inverter power source 3 to change the magnitude of the current applied to the motor 2 and the frequency of the alternating current, thereby generating torque generated by the motor 2 and regenerative power charged in the battery 1. Can be changed. Moreover, the control calculation part 8 can change the braking force which the braking device 7 generate | occur | produces by sending the command (braking force command mentioned later) which changes the frictional force generated to the driving wheel 6 to the braking device 7. .

  As shown in FIG. 1, the control calculation unit 8 includes a vehicle speed sensor 9 that detects a vehicle speed, an accelerator sensor 10 that detects an accelerator pedal opening (amount of operation of the accelerator pedal), and a brake pedal opening (an amount of operation of the brake pedal). ) For detecting a rotation angle of a rotor 20 (described later) of the motor 2, and a motor 2 described later. A coil temperature sensor 14 for detecting the temperature of the coil 24, a strain sensor 15 for detecting strain of a tooth 26 (to be described later) of the motor 2, and the like are connected. The control calculation unit 8 controls the braking device 7 or drives and controls the motor 2 via the inverter power supply 3 in accordance with signals from these various sensors 9 to 15.

  FIG. 2 is an axial sectional view of the motor 2. Since the motor 2 has a symmetric configuration with respect to the plane including the AA axis, which is the rotation axis, the configuration below the AA axis is omitted in FIG. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view orthogonal to the axial direction of the motor 2. Since the motor 2 has rotational symmetry with respect to a rotating shaft (not shown), only a part of the motor 2 is shown. The motor 2 is an IPM (Interior Permanent Magnet) motor, and a magnet 21 is embedded in the rotor 20. Both ends of the rotor 20 are supported by bearings 23 provided on the case 22. A stator 25 is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the case 22. A coil 24 in which a U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase three-phase winding is Y-connected is wound around a tooth 26 extending in the inner circumferential direction from the stator 25. A coil temperature sensor 14 (FIG. 2) for measuring the temperature of the coil 24 is attached to the coil 24. Further, a strain sensor 15 that detects strain of the tooth 26 is attached to at least one of the teeth 26. The strain sensor 15 is provided on any one of the end surfaces in the rotation axis direction of the teeth 26. How to use the strain sensor 15 will be described later.

  In the motor 2, energy conversion between kinetic energy and electrical energy is performed as follows. During power running, the rotor 20 rotates in synchronization with the rotational speed of the rotating magnetic field by the magnetic action between the coil 24 and the rotor 20 that receives the supply of the three-phase alternating current and generates the rotating magnetic field. That is, electric energy is converted into kinetic energy. On the other hand, at the time of regeneration, a three-phase alternating current is generated as the field magnetic flux of the rotor 20 is linked to the coil 24 by the rotation of the rotor 20. That is, kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy.

The residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 is involved in the energy conversion between the kinetic energy and the electric energy described above. The magnitude of the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 depends on the temperature of the magnet 21. Specific examples are shown below with normal temperature as the reference temperature. When the temperature of the magnet 21 rises, the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 decreases. On the contrary, when the temperature of the magnet 21 decreases, the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 increases. When returning to normal temperature, the magnitude of the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet may or may not return to the magnitude before the temperature change. The former is called reversible demagnetization, and the latter is called irreversible demagnetization. Hereinafter, the case of reversible demagnetization will be described unless otherwise specified.
As described above, the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 varies depending on the temperature of the magnet 21. When the temperature of the magnet 21 is different, the magnitude of the torque output from the motor 2 is different even when the current flowing through the coil 24 is equal. Further, the current applied to the coil 24 is designed so that the energy conversion efficiency of the motor 2 is maximized when the temperature of the magnet 21 is a reference temperature (for example, normal temperature). Since the energy conversion efficiency of the motor 2 is reduced, the output torque is reduced.

  The coil 24 generates heat due to electric resistance when a current is applied. FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the heat generation tendency of the coil 24, in which the heat generation tendency (lines L11 to L14) of the coil 24 is superimposed on the curve L1 indicating the rotation speed / torque characteristics (maximum torque) of the motor 2. It is. In FIG. 4, the vertical axis represents motor torque, and the horizontal axis represents motor rotation speed. The upper side in the figure from the horizontal axis represents the power running side, and the lower side in the figure represents the regeneration side. A line L1 indicated by a bold line represents the maximum torque of the motor 2 at room temperature. The maximum torque L1 indicates a motor torque that can be output at each motor speed, and the motor 2 is used in a region inside the maximum torque (region surrounded by the line L1).

  Each of the lines L11 to L14 is a curve connecting the operating points where the heat generation amount of the coil 24 is the same, and as described above, the heat generation tendency of the coil 24 can be understood. The alternating current applied to the coil 24 varies substantially according to the magnitude (absolute value) of the motor torque. Therefore, the heat generation amount of the coil 24 increases in accordance with the magnitude of the motor torque, and the heat generation amount increases in the order of L11 <L12 <L13 <L14. As can be seen from FIG. 4, if the motor torque is the same, the amount of generated heat hardly changes even if the rotational speed changes.

  On the other hand, the magnet 21 generates heat due to an eddy current generated in the magnet 21. The eddy current of the magnet 21 is generated when the magnetic flux generated in the coil 24 is changed. The magnitude of the eddy current is determined by the magnitude of the magnetic flux generated in the coil 24 (magnetic flux density) and the motor rotation speed, that is, the magnetic flux density. It changes according to the time change. FIG. 5 is a view for explaining the heat generation tendency of the magnet 21, and shows the heat generation tendency (curves L 21 to L 24) of the magnet 21 on the curve L 1 indicating the maximum torque of the motor 2. As in FIG. 4, also in FIG. 5, the vertical axis represents motor torque, and the horizontal axis represents motor rotation speed. The upper side in the figure from the horizontal axis represents the power running side, and the lower side in the figure represents the regeneration side. The density of magnetic flux generated by the coil 24 (magnetic flux density) increases in accordance with the magnitude of the motor torque. Further, when the number of rotations of the motor 2 increases, the change in magnetic flux becomes severe. Therefore, the amount of heat generated by the magnet 21 due to the magnitude of the magnetic flux density of the coil 24 and the eddy current due to the change over time changes according to the magnitude of the motor torque and the motor speed, and as shown in FIG. Curves L21 to L24 connecting the operating points are in a complicated shape. In FIG. 5, the calorific value increases in the order of L21 <L22 <L23 <L24.

  As described above, the heating value of the coil 24 changes according to the magnitude of the motor torque (FIG. 4), whereas the heating value of the magnet 21 changes according to the magnitude of the motor torque and the motor rotation speed ( FIG. 5). Therefore, when the magnitude (absolute value) of the motor torque increases, the amount of heat generated by the coil 24 increases, and the coil temperature becomes high. In the case of the magnet 21, when the motor torque increases or the motor rotation speed increases, the amount of heat generation increases and the magnet temperature becomes high.

  Thus, the coil 24 and the magnet 21 have different heat generation tendencies. The motor 2 is provided with a coil temperature sensor 14 that measures the temperature of the coil 24. Although it is possible to measure the temperature of the coil 24 by the coil temperature sensor 14, it is impossible to estimate the temperature of the magnet 21 or the change in the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 according to the temperature of the magnet 21 due to the above-described difference in heat generation tendency. . In addition, since the coil 24 is provided in the stator 25 which is a non-rotating part, the coil temperature sensor 14 can be easily attached. However, since the magnet 21 is embedded in the rotor 20 which is a rotating part, a direct temperature sensor or magnetic flux is provided. It is difficult to attach a sensor or the like. Therefore, in order to prevent the deterioration of the torque accuracy and the decrease in efficiency due to the change in the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21, the influence of the change in the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 can be made with high accuracy without providing a sensor directly on the magnet 21. , A means to estimate is needed.

  Therefore, in the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, a strain sensor 15 for detecting the strain of the tooth 26 is provided, and the control calculation unit 8 changes the detected value of the strain sensor 15 and the current applied to the coil 24. An estimated value of magnetic flux in the tooth 26 is calculated from the waveform. As a result, it is possible to accurately calculate the torque of the motor 2 by estimating the change in the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 and the temperature of the magnet 21 with high accuracy without providing a sensor directly on the magnet 21 as will be described later. .

  Since there is a strong correlation between the magnetic flux density in the tooth 26 and the tensile stress in the radial direction of the tooth 26, in the first embodiment, the strain sensor 15 is provided so as to detect the tensile stress in the radial direction of the tooth 26. . Further, in addition to the radial tensile stress, the teeth 26 also generate a circumferential bending stress. The strain due to the bending stress in the circumferential direction of the teeth 26 varies greatly depending on the space factor of the coil 24 and the mounting position of the strain sensor 15, and if the mounting position of the strain sensor 15 is not accurately mounted, reproducibility, mass productivity, etc. A problem arises. For this reason, in the present embodiment, as described below, a study was performed so as not to detect a bending stress in the circumferential direction.

  Specifically, the strain sensor 15 is attached to a position where the tensile stress in the radial direction of the tooth 26 can be detected and the influence of the bending stress in the circumferential direction is small. The strain due to the bending stress in the circumferential direction increases as the distance from the center in the circumferential direction of the tooth 26 increases. Therefore, the strain sensor 15 in the first embodiment is attached to the center in the circumferential direction of the tooth 26, that is, a position satisfying W1 = W2 in FIG. Further, the strain due to the bending stress in the circumferential direction increases toward the radially outer side of the tooth 26. Therefore, the strain sensor 15 in the first embodiment is attached to the tip end side of the tooth 26, that is, the position where W3 <W4 in FIG. Thereby, the strain sensor 15 can detect the strain due to the tensile stress in the radial direction without being affected by the bending stress in the circumferential direction of the tooth 26.

With reference to FIG. 6, an algorithm for estimating the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 from the tooth distortion, the coil current, and the motor rotation angle will be described.
FIG. 6A is a diagram illustrating a waveform of an alternating current of the coil 24. FIG. 6B is a diagram illustrating a waveform of magnetic flux in the tooth 26. FIG. 6C is a diagram illustrating a waveform of a detection value of the strain sensor 15. The tendency between the alternating current of the coil 24 and the detected value of the strain sensor 15 will be described with reference to FIGS. Note that what is shown here relates to the operation of the control calculation unit 8 described later.

  The alternating current of the coil 24 shown in FIG. 6A mainly consists of q-axis components. Further, the magnetic flux generated by the coil 24 is mainly composed of a q-axis component. On the other hand, although not shown in the figure, the magnetic flux generated by the magnet 21 is mainly composed of a component whose phase is shifted by 90 ° from the q-axis component, that is, a d-axis component. The magnetic flux generated by the magnet 21 depends on the rotation angle of the rotor 20. Since the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 in FIG. 6B is a combination of the magnetic flux generated by the coil 24 and the magnetic flux generated by the magnet 21, the q-axis component and the d-axis component are combined. Since the detection value of the strain sensor 15 shown in FIG. 6C is proportional to the square of the magnitude of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26, the time of zero crossing in FIG. 6B and the detection value in FIG. 6 coincides with the time when the amplitude (including both positive and negative) in FIG. 6B becomes the maximum and the time when the detected value in FIG. 6C becomes the maximum. Therefore, the period of the waveform shown in FIG. 6C is a half of the period of the waveform shown in FIG. Based on the above, the waveform change in FIGS. 6B and 6C due to the temperature rise of the magnet 21 will be described.

  The magnetic flux resulting from the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 and the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 among the magnetic flux in the teeth 26 changes according to the temperature of the magnet 21. Further, as described above, the waveform of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 shown in FIG. 6B is composed of the magnetic flux (q-axis component) generated by the coil 24 and the magnetic flux (d-axis component) generated by the magnet 21. As the temperature rises, the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 decreases, and the magnetic flux (d-axis component) by the magnet 21 out of the magnetic flux in the teeth 26 decreases. On the other hand, the magnetic flux (q-axis component) by the coil 24 among the magnetic fluxes in the teeth 26 does not change in temperature. As a result, as shown in FIG. 6B, the amplitude of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 is reduced by the amount of the magnetic flux (d-axis component) generated by the magnet 21. Further, the phase of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 approaches the magnetic flux (q-axis component) generated by the coil 24. Since the alternating current of the coil 24 shown in FIG. 6A is in phase with the magnetic flux (q-axis component) generated by the coil 24 among the magnetic flux in the tooth 26, the phase of FIG. ) And the phase difference between the two becomes smaller.

  The detection value of the strain sensor 15 shown in FIG. 6C is proportional to the square of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 shown in FIG. From this, when the amplitude of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 shown in FIG. 6B is reduced, the distortion amplitude of the tooth 26 is also reduced as shown in FIG. 6C. For the same reason, if the phase difference between the waveforms in FIGS. 6A and 6B decreases, the phase difference between FIGS. 6C and 6A also decreases.

  Using the above phenomenon, the control calculation unit 8 in the first embodiment calculates the estimated magnetic flux value in the tooth 26 from the amplitude information of the detected value of the strain sensor 15 and the information of the rotation angle of the rotor 20. obtain. Further, the control calculation unit 8 calculates the residual magnetic flux density estimated value of the magnet 21 from the information on the phase difference between the detected value waveform of the strain sensor 15 and the current waveform applied to the coil 24 and the estimated magnetic flux value in the tooth 26. To do.

  That is, the phase difference between the coil current waveform (FIG. 6A) and the magnetic flux waveform in the tooth (FIG. 6B) depends on the magnet temperature. The phases of the magnetic flux waveform in the tooth (FIG. 6B) and the strain sensor output waveform (FIG. 6C) match. Therefore, the phase difference between the coil current waveform (FIG. 6A) and the strain sensor output waveform (FIG. 6C) depends on the magnet temperature. Therefore, in the present invention, an estimated value of the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet is obtained based on the phase difference between the coil current waveform (FIG. 6 (a)) and the strain sensor output waveform (FIG. 6 (c)) and the magnetic flux in the teeth. .

  There are the following reasons for obtaining the estimated magnetic flux value in the tooth 26 using not only the information of the output waveform of the detection value of the strain sensor 15 but also the information of the rotation angle of the rotor 20. Obtaining the output waveform of the detection value of the strain sensor 15 shown in FIG. 6C from the waveform of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 shown in FIG. 6B is uniquely determined. However, on the contrary, if the waveform of FIG. 6B is obtained from the waveform of FIG. 6C, it is not uniquely determined. This is because the waveform of FIG. 6C is obtained from the square of the waveform of FIG. 6B, and it can be imagined that performing the inverse transformation finds the square root of a certain positive value. This is because, as can be easily understood, two positive and negative values are obtained. Specifically, there is a problem that either a solid line waveform shown in FIG. 6B or a waveform symmetrical to the waveform and the time axis is selected. Therefore, in order to solve this, one of the above waveforms is selected using information on the rotation angle of the rotor 20.

  The flow of calculating the residual magnetic flux density estimated value of the magnet 21 described above is summarized as follows. That is, the estimated value of the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 as shown in FIG. 6B is obtained from the information of the detected value of the strain sensor 15 as shown in FIG. 6C and the information of the rotation angle of the rotor 20. .

  The residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 changes according to the temperature of the magnet 21. When the temperature of the magnet 21 rises, the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 decreases. On the contrary, when the temperature of the magnet 21 decreases, the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 increases. From this, the estimated temperature value of the magnet 21 can be calculated from the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21. Therefore, the control calculation unit 8 in the first embodiment calculates the estimated temperature value of the magnet 21 from the estimated residual magnetic flux density value of the magnet 21.

  Since the motor 2 generates heat according to the operating state, if the motor temperature rises excessively due to the generated heat, the varnish applied to the coil 24 may be altered. Further, when the magnet 21 is a neodymium magnet, if it receives a large reverse magnetic field at a high temperature, it may cause demagnetization in which the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 does not recover even after returning to normal temperature, that is, irreversible demagnetization. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the coil 24 and the magnet 21 from an excessive temperature rise. Hereinafter, a method for preventing an excessive temperature rise will be described.

  As described above, the coil 24 and the magnet 21 have different heat generation tendencies, and therefore different desirable countermeasures for lowering the temperature. Therefore, as will be described below, an excessive temperature rise of the coil 24 and the magnet 21 is prevented by using different methods depending on whether the coil 24 is hot or the magnet 21 is hot.

  In order to prevent an excessive temperature rise of the coil 24, the heat generation amount, that is, the motor torque may be limited according to the coil temperature. When the coil temperature is relatively low, the allowable motor torque is relatively large. Below a certain temperature, the maximum torque shown in FIG. 4 is allowed. Conversely, when the coil temperature is relatively high, the allowable motor torque is limited.

  On the other hand, the calorific value of the magnet 21 changes according to the magnitude (absolute value) of the motor torque and the motor rotation speed, and the line with a constant calorific value is shaped like the lines L21 to L24 shown in FIG. In order to prevent an excessive temperature rise of the magnet 21, it is necessary to limit the heat generation amount, that is, the motor torque and the motor rotation speed, according to the temperature of the magnet 21.

  As described above, the heat generated by the magnet 21 increases in accordance with the magnitude (absolute value) of the motor torque and the motor rotation speed. Therefore, even if the motor torque is decreased, the temperature of the magnet 21 may increase if the motor rotation speed is large. For example, when the vehicle is traveling on a downward slope, that is, when a load that increases the motor rotation speed is applied to the rotor 20, even if the motor torque is limited to zero, the vehicle speed, that is, the motor rotation speed is To increase. At this time, the heat generated by the magnet 21 increases and the magnet temperature continues to rise. In such a case, if the motor torque is adjusted to decrease the motor rotation speed, it is necessary to increase the motor torque to the regeneration side. Also in this case, the heat generation of the magnet 21 increases.

  In the first embodiment, when the control calculation unit 8 sends a command to the inverter power supply 3 so as to make the motor torque zero, the calculated temperature of the magnet 21 still rises above a predetermined temperature higher than the reference temperature. In order to reduce the vehicle speed, that is, the motor rotation speed, a command is sent to the braking device 7. Thereby, motor rotation speed can be reduced and the excessive temperature rise of the magnet 21 can be avoided.

  FIG. 7 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of the control calculation unit 8 in the first embodiment. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the operation of the control calculation unit 8 in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the motor control operation of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10 are also used in the middle of this description. While the ignition key switch (not shown) of the vehicle is on, the motor control program shown in FIG. 8 is repeatedly executed.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the control calculation unit 8 includes a torque request calculation unit 30, a braking force request calculation unit 31, a magnetic flux calculation unit 32, a torque estimation calculation unit 33, a residual magnetic flux density calculation unit 34, and a magnet temperature calculation unit 35. , A torque limit calculator 36, a torque target calculator 37, a torque command calculator 38, a current command calculator 39, a PWM calculator 40, a braking force limit calculator 41, and a braking force command calculator 42 are provided. Below, what operation | movement of the above-mentioned each part is demonstrated within the motor control program shown in FIG.

  In step S <b> 1, based on the vehicle speed signal detected by the vehicle speed sensor 9 and the accelerator opening signal detected by the accelerator sensor 10 (a signal corresponding to the amount of depression of the accelerator pedal), the torque request calculating unit 30 performs the torque of the motor 2. Calculate the required value. Specifically, since the accelerator opening of the accelerator pedal is proportional to the required output value as the vehicle, the accelerator opening is converted into the required output value. Then, the required driving force value of the vehicle, that is, the required torque value of the motor 2 is calculated by dividing the output required value by the vehicle speed.

  In step S <b> 2, the braking force request calculation unit 31 calculates the braking force request value of the braking device 7 based on the brake signal detected by the brake sensor 11 (a signal corresponding to the depression amount of the brake pedal). Since the brake signal is proportional to the required braking force value of the vehicle, the brake signal is converted into the required braking force value. Note that the required braking force value is converted to a motor torque equivalent and works negatively because the vehicle is decelerated.

  In step S <b> 3, based on the rotation angle signal of the rotor 20 detected by the rotation angle sensor 13 and the strain signal of the tooth 26 detected by the strain sensor 15, the magnetic flux calculation unit 32 calculates an estimated magnetic flux value in the tooth 26. . As described in the explanation of FIG. 6, the rotation angle signal of the rotor 20 plays a role of selecting either positive or negative of the magnetic flux waveform in the tooth 26.

  In step S <b> 4, the torque estimation calculation unit 33 calculates the estimated torque value of the motor 2 based on the current signal of the coil 24 detected by the current sensor 12 and the estimated magnetic flux value in the tooth 26 calculated by the magnetic flux calculation unit 32. To do. The torque of the motor 2 is determined by the amplitude of the alternating current in the coil 24, the amplitude of the magnetic flux in the teeth 26, and the phase difference between the alternating current and the magnetic flux. That is, the torque of the motor 2 is an outer product in the case where the alternating current of the coil 24 and the magnetic flux in the tooth 26 are expressed in a polar format based on the maximum amplitude and phase difference.

  In step S <b> 5, the residual magnetic flux density calculation unit 34 estimates the residual magnetic flux density of the magnet 21 based on the current signal of the coil 24 detected by the current sensor 12 and the estimated magnetic flux value in the tooth 26 calculated by the magnetic flux calculation unit 32. Calculate the value.

  Here, details of the residual magnetic flux density calculation unit 34 and a specific calculation procedure will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. FIG. 9 is a block diagram showing details of the configuration of the residual magnetic flux density calculator 34. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the operation of the residual magnetic flux density calculator 34, that is, the details of step S5 in FIG.

In cases other than the above, the required braking force value is set to zero. The correspondence when the estimated temperature of the magnet 21, the estimated torque value, and the vehicle speed signal are input parameters and the vehicle speed limit value is an output parameter is stored as a numerical map in the memory provided in the control calculation unit 8. The braking force limit calculation unit 41 calculates a vehicle speed limit value based on this numerical map. Thereby, motor rotation speed can be reduced and the excessive temperature rise of the magnet 21 can be avoided.
