  2. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorgenerator

    These are motor/generators rather than motor–generators, single units which can act as either a motor or a generator. They make the cars more fuel-efficient by harvesting energy from regenerative braking and from the turbocharger, and can also be used to provide up to 160 BHP extra to the wheels to aid acceleration and overtaking, or to spin ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

    An engine–generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of equipment. This combination is also called an engine–generator set or a gen-set. In many contexts, the engine is taken for granted and the combined unit is simply called a generator. An engine–generator ...

    An engine-generator is the combination of an electrical generator and an engine (prime mover) mounted together to form a single piece of self-contained equipment. The engines used are usually piston engines, but gas turbines can also be used, and there are even hybrid diesel-gas units, called dual-fuel units.

  5. Electric machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_machine

    In electrical engineering, electric machine is a general term for machines using electromagnetic forces, such as electric motors, electric generators, and others.They are electromechanical energy converters: an electric motor converts electricity to mechanical power while an electric generator converts mechanical power to electricity.

  6. Starter (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starter_(engine)

    The Dodge used a combined starter-generator unit, with a direct current dynamo permanently coupled by gears to the engine's crankshaft. A system of electrical relays allowed this to be driven as a motor to rotate the engine for starting, and once the starter button was released the controlling switchgear returned the unit to operation as a ...

  7. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.
