ABSTRACT:
An inverter circuit includes a plurality of sets each having a series combination of two switching elements. Two ends of each of the sets are connected to a vehicle battery. A junction between the two switching elements in each of the sets is electrically connected to a polyphase ac motor. A vector controller is operative for controlling the inverter circuit on the basis of a torque-current command value and a magnetizing-current command value. The vector controller includes a command value calculating device for calculating a motor-torque command value on the basis of a required torque, and an operation mode judging device for judging an operation mode to be a quicker-torque-response mode or a higher-efficiency mode on the basis of various conditions. The vector controller also includes a first calculating device for, in cases where the operation mode judging device judges the operation mode to be the higher-efficiency mode, calculating the magnetizing-current command value and the torque-current command value, which maximizes an energy efficiency, on the basis of the motor-torque command value. The vector controller further includes a second calculating device for, in cases where the operation mode judging device judges the operation mode to be the quicker-torque-response mode, fixing the magnetizing-current command value to a present value thereof or a given value and calculating the torque-current command value from the fixed magnetizing-current command value and the motor-torque command value.
