Abstract:
An electric motor control system of a vehicle includes a temperature module configured to, based on a motor torque request, (i) determine a plurality of stator current values based on a plurality of temperatures and (ii) generate a maximum stator current based on a lowest value of the plurality of stator current values. A torque module configured to, based on the maximum stator current, the motor torque request, and a maximum allowable flux, generate a maximum torque output. A current command module configured to, based on a speed of a rotor of the electric motor and the maximum torque output, generate a d-axis current adjustment and a q-axis current adjustment. A switching control module configured to, based on the d- and q-axis current adjustments, control switching of an inverter module and apply power to stator windings of the electric motor from an energy storage device.
