Rotating electric machine device and rotating electric machine device control method

A rotating electric machine apparatus, comprising:

• a rotating electric machine including a rotor and a stator provided concentrically about a rotation shaft as an axis, one of the rotor and the stator being provided outside another thereof, the rotor being rotatable about the rotating shaft as the axis, the stator being fixed, any one of the rotor and the stator including an armature, another thereof including a field;
• an inverter including an inverter circuit to drive the rotating electric machine, and an inverter controller to control the inverter circuit;
• a detector including a resonance circuitry, which is mounted to an object to be measured of the rotating electric machine and has a resonance characteristic that changes depending on a change in a physical quantity of the object to be measured, and a first antenna to transmit the resonance characteristic;
• and
• a detection processor to receive the resonance characteristic dependent on the change in the physical quantity in a form of a response radio wave from the first antenna as a response to a transmission radio wave transmitted from a second antenna, calculate a detection result corresponding to a current value of the physical quantity from the resonance characteristic, and compare whether the detection result is within a permissible range set in advance, to thereby detect whether the object to be measured is in an abnormal state,
• wherein the inverter controller controls output of the inverter circuit so that the detection result falls within the permissible range when the inverter controller receives from the detection processor an abnormal state signal indicating that the abnormal state is detected.
