The Aircraft Starter Generator is an essential component of the aircraft’s power system.
A starter generator on an aircraft combines the functions of a starter motor and a generator. Initially, it acts as a starter motor to crank the engine by converting electrical energy from the aircraft’s battery into mechanical energy, starting the engine. Once the engine is running, it switches to generator mode, converting mechanical energy from the engine into electrical energy, which is then used to power the aircraft’s systems and recharge the battery.
