Energy converter control apparatus, and control method thereof

摘要

A magnitude of current that does not cause electric power generation is supplied to a field winding of a movable element, and an induced voltage generated in a armature winding of a stationary element is measured. A position of the movable element is determined from the measured induced voltage. In addition to the thus-determined position of the movable element, a position of the movable element measured on a different basis is used to measure an error regarding the position of the movable element.
