Title:
SYNCHRONOUS MACHINE STARTING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/038282
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A synchronous machine starting device comprises a power converter for converting supplied power into alternating-current power and supplying the alternating current power to an armature of a synchronous machine (4), an alternating-current voltage detector for detecting an alternating-current voltage supplied to the armature of the synchronous machine, a rotor position detector (11) for detecting a rotor position of the synchronous machine according to the detected alternating-current voltage, and a power conversion controller for controlling the power converter according to the detected rotor position. The rotor position detector (11) includes a level monitoring section (21) for outputting a first position signal indicating a timing at which the level of the alternating-current voltage supplied to the armature of the synchronous machine reaches a predetermined value according to the detected alternating-current voltage, a feedback computing unit (23) for calculating, from an estimated phase indicating the rotor position and the detected alternating-current voltage, an error of the estimated phase, calculating the estimated phase from the calculated phase error, and outputting a second position signal indicating the calculated estimated phase, and a selection circuit (SEL) for, upon receiving the first position signal or a position signal obtained from the first position signal and the second position signal, selecting either one of the received two position signals and outputting the selected one as a signal indicating the rotor position of the synchronous machine to a power conversion controller (19).
