Abstract: An abnormality detecting device for a current sensor detecting whether a single current sensor provided in an inverter which supplies electric power to a motor driving a compressor is abnormal detects phase currents of the motor based on an output signal of the current sensor, estimates an estimated phase current value of the phase currents of the motor based on at least one of a discharge pressure and a suction pressure of the compressor and a rotational speed of the motor, compares detected values of the phase currents with an estimated phase current value of the phase currents, and then detects whether the current sensor is abnormal based on the comparison result.

Abstract: An inverter device that generates an AC voltage from a DC voltage and drives an electric motor 2 includes: smoothing capacitors 3 for reducing the ripple voltage superimposed on the DC voltage; an inverter circuit 4 having a plurality of switching elements 40u to 40w, 41u to 41w; and a control unit 5 for controlling operation of the plurality of switching elements 40u to 40w, 41u to 41w of the inverter circuit 4. When an open fault has occurred in the smoothing capacitors 3, the control unit 5 limits the electric current flowing through the electric motor 2 by controlling the operation of the plurality of switching elements 40u to 40w, 41u to 41w.

Abstract: To provide a motor control device capable of determining a rotor position with high accuracy not only in normal control but also in flux-weakening control. The motor control device includes: a first rotor position determining unit 28 that determines a rotor position of a synchronous motor by using a rotor position calculation formula with, as parameters, current electrical angle or induced voltage electrical angle, and first current phase or first induced voltage phase obtained based on current peak value and [(induced voltage electrical angle)−(current electrical angle)]; a second rotor position determining unit 29 that determines a rotor position of the synchronous motor by using a rotor position calculation formula with, as parameters, current electrical angle or induced voltage electrical angle, and second current phase or second induced voltage phase obtained based on current peak value and flux linkage of a rotor of the synchronous motor; and a selecting unit 30 that selects the first or second rotor position determining unit 28, 29.
