A load-commutated inverter synchronous machine drive system control apparatus comprises at least one microcomputer for determining optimum or desired values for inverter turn-off time, inverter link current and machine air gap flux from machine drive system voltage and currents. Inverter frequency is regulated in accordance with the difference in magnitude between optimum and actual inverter turn-off time to minimize the inverter turn-off angle irrespective of machine frequency, thereby reducing synchronous machine reactive power. Inverter link current and synchronous machine field current are regulated responsive to the difference in magnitude between optimum and actual inverter link current and the difference in magnitude between optimum and actual machine air gap flux, respectively, thereby assuring machine operation at maximum efficiency. |
