Application: Power conversion device (Patent ID: US20240097589A1)

The patent filed by Hitachi Ltd. describes a power conversion device that includes a power converter and a control unit. The control unit calculates reactive and active power based on various parameters and frequency estimates to ensure that the output power of the motor aligns with the desired values. The device also employs proportional and integral control methods to minimize deviations between the calculated powers and phase error estimates, adjusting based on the motor's rotation speed.

Furthermore, the control unit of the power conversion device feedbacks output voltage, output current, and phase error estimates to an IOT controller for analysis and can modify the electrical circuit parameters of the motor. The device allows for flexibility in control response settings, enabling the switching between different frequency domains and control methods based on the requirements of the application and the motor's operating speed. Overall, the patent outlines a sophisticated control system for power conversion that optimizes motor performance and efficiency through precise power calculations and error estimation techniques.
