The invention discloses a method and a device for rapidly detecting an optimal efficiency point of a variable frequency
motor system, and belongs to the technical field of
motor system detection. Selecting an initial
test point, and obtaining a rough search range based on the initial
test point; efficiency testing is carried out on each
test point in the rough search range, the optimal efficiency of the
current range is obtained, and whether the
global optimal efficiency is updated or not is judged; if the
global optimal efficiency is updated, obtaining a high-efficiency area based on the updated
global optimal efficiency; carrying out fine mesh division on the high-efficiency region, and then testing each fine mesh test point; and if the variable quantity of the efficiency value meets the preset requirement, outputting the global optimal efficiency and the corresponding torque value and rotating speed value. According to the method, the torque and rotating speed range, the step length and the test point duration can be adaptively adjusted, and the search range and the convergence condition are allowed to be customized; the testing probability of a non-efficient working condition area is reduced, meanwhile, the testing precision of an efficient working condition area is remarkably improved, and the detection efficiency and precision are effectively optimized.
