Abstract

A power conversion device includes: a power conversion circuit for converting DC power into AC power; and a controller to generate a control signal for the power conversion circuit based on a control command value and an output voltage of the power conversion circuit. The controller is configured to generate the control signal based on a corrected voltage command value calculated by subtraction correction to decrease a voltage command value when the output voltage of the power conversion circuit is equal to or higher than a predetermined threshold value, and to generate the control signal based on a voltage command value not subjected to the subtraction correction when the output voltage of the power conversion circuit is lower than the threshold value.

wherein the control device is configured to correct the voltage command value with the second correction value regardless of whether or not the output voltage of the power conversion circuit is equal to or higher than the threshold value.

3. The power conversion device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the first calculation part is configured to multiply by the first gain a value outputted by filtering with a first time constant the output voltage of the power conversion circuit,
