SHEER MAGNETISM: HOW A MOTOR GENERATOR WORKS
batteries and acknowledged there are many different types of devices which fit that generic term. This month we take a similar look at one of the other major components of a hybrid system: the motor or, as it’s known on a vehicle, the motor generator unit or MGU. The motor is the device that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. It’s a reversable process and so, if driven, a motor can also turn mechanical energy into electrical energy as it acts as a generator, hence the name MGU. Motors consist of many
