To efficiently drive a motor by minimizing the total loss of the motor.
This motor control device drives the motor 2 by generating a d-axis current and a q-axis current that correspond to torque commands T*, and comprises a rotational speed detection means 1 that detects the number of revolutions of the motor 2, on the basis of all the loss of the motor 2 classified as below a conversion table 8a that regulates in advance the torque commands T*, the d-axis current id and the q-axis current iq for minimizing the total loss with respect to the number N of revolutions of the motor. There is established an expression: the total loss=iron loss (fundamental wave iron loss (I, θ, N)+harmonic iron loss (I, θ, N)+carrier iron loss (I, θ, N))+copper loss (I)+mechanical loss (N). Here, I is a motor current, θ is a current phase, and N is the number of revolutions of the motor.
