Magnetism and electromagnetism are related phenomena that can be used to generate electricity. Electric motors, generators and their controls rely on these principles. Motors use electromagnetic induction to convert electrical energy to mechanical motion, while generators operate in reverse to convert mechanical energy to electricity. Key components include magnetic fields, conductors, and switching devices that regulate current flow to produce rotation or induce voltage. Motors and generators are found in electric, hybrid and mild hybrid vehicle propulsion systems.
An electric motor is an electrical 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 rotation of a shaft.

An alternator is an electrical generator that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy in the form of alternating current. For reasons of cost and simplicity, most alternators use a rotating magnetic field with a stationary armature. Occasionally, a linear alternator or a rotating armature with a stationary magnetic field is used. In principle, any AC electrical generator can be called an alternator, but usually the term refers to small rotating machines driven by automotive and other internal combustion engines. An alternator that uses a permanent magnet for its magnetic field is called a magneto. Alternators in power stations driven by steam turbines are called turbo-alternators. Large 50 or 60 Hz three phase alternators in power plants generate most of the world's electric power, which is distributed by electric power grids.

2. MAGNETISM
• Is a form of energy that is generated by the motion of electrons
and alignment of atoms.
• Can be naturally occurring in material called “Lodestone”
• Can be artificially created in some materials called “Ferrous”
(has iron)
3. MAGNETISM
TECH TIP: A cracked magnet becomes two weaker
magnets. This is an important concept to understand. A
cracked cam shaft or crank shaft position sensor may not
create a strong enough signal to be read by the computer .
4. LINES OF FORCE
• The lines that create a field of force around a magnet are
concentrated at both ends and form closed, parallel loops in
three dimensions that never intersect each other.
• The stronger the magnet the more lines of flux.
5. ATTRACTING OR REPELLING
• The poles of a magnet are called north and south because when
a magnet is suspended freely, the poles tend to point toward
the north and south poles of the earth.
• Magnetic force is equal at both ends.
• When unlike poles are placed closed together, the lines exit
from one magnet and enter the other, pulling or “attracting”
together.
• When like poles are placed closed together, the lines meet
head-on, forcing the magnets apart.
6. PERMEABILITY
• Magnetic flux CANNOT be insulated. There is no known
material through which magnetic force does not pass. However,
some materials allow the force to pass through more easily
than others.
• The degree of passage is called permeability.
• This is how Hall Effect sensors work
7. RELUCTANCE
• While there is no absolute insulation to magnetism, certain
materials resist the passages of magnetic forces.
• This can be compared to resistance within an electrical circuit.
• Air does not allow easy passage, so therefore it has a high
reluctance.
• Magnetism follows the path of least resistance.
8. ELECTROMAGNETISM
• Electricity and magnetism are related. One can be used to
create the other.
• Current flowing through a wire creates a magnetic field around
the wire.
• Moving a wire through a magnetic field creates current flow in
the wire. (or moving a magnetic field across a wire, known as
induction)
9. STRAIGHT CONDUCTOR
• The magnetic field surrounding a straight, current-carrying
conductor exists along the entire length of the wire.
• The strength determines how many flux lines and how far out
they are.
10. FIELD INTERACTION
• The lines of flux surrounding the conductors interact with other
magnetic fields.
• If two conductors carry current in opposite directions, their
magnetic fields also rotate in opposite directions.
• If they are placed side-by-side, the opposing flux lines create a
strong magnetic field.
• Current-carrying conductors move out of a strong field into a
weak field.
12. MOTOR PRINCIPLE
• Electric motors, such as automotive starters, use this field
interaction to change electrical energy into mechanical energy.
• If two current carrying conductors are placed in a strong
magnetic field the conductor interacts with the magnetic field
poles, causing the conductor to move out of the strong field
and into the weaker (movement).
• This causes the neutral plane to shift (see picture)
15. ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION
• Magnetic flux lines can create an electromotive force (voltage).
• Voltage is induced when magnetic flux lines are broken by a
conductor.
• Either the conductor or the magnetic field HAS to move for this
to occur.
• The highest voltage is induced when the motion is at right
angles.
16. ELECTROMAGENTIC STRENGTH
• Induced voltage depends on magnetic flux lines being broken
by a conductor. The strength of the voltage are increased four
ways:
1. Increase the strength of the magnetic field.
2. Increase the number of conductors that are breaking the flux
lines.
3. Increase the speed of the relative motion between the
conductor and flux.
4. Increase the angle between flux lines and conductor (90
17. ELECTRIC MOTOR POWER
• Electric motor power is expressed in kilowatts (kW).
• A watt is the amount of power needed to lift an object weight
102 grams a distance of one meter in one second.
• One “HP” is equal to 746 Watts. So a 15kW electric motor
produces 20 HP. (Honda IMA motor)
18. DC MOTOR PRINCIPLES
DC motors strength and speed are affected by the following:
1. Applied Voltage (speed)
2. Applied Current (torque)
One disadvantage to DC electric motors are the brushes arc and
wear out.
19. BRUSHLESS MOTORS
• There are two types of AC brushless motors:
1. AC Induction asynchronous motor
2. AC Permanent magnet synchronous motor
20. AC INDUCTION ASYNCHRONOUS MOTOR
• This style motor uses electromagnetic induction from the stator
to induce a current and therefore creates a magnetic field in the
rotor without the need of brushes or applied voltage to the
rotor.
• An AC induction asynchronous motor is called that because it
allows a certain amount of slip between the rotor and the
changing magnetic field in the stator.
21. AC PERMANENT MAGNET SYNCHRONOUS
MOTOR
• This motor uses a permanent magnetic rotor that interacts with
the changing magnetic field of the stator.
• Called synchronous because the speed of the rotor is the same
as the speed of the changing magnetic field in the stator.
26. GENERATORS?
• A generator is similar to a motor. However, a motor changes
electrical energy to mechanical energy, whereas a generator
changes mechanical energy to electrical energy.
• To generate voltage, a conductor is moved through a magnetic
field or a magnetic field is moved over a conductor (remember)
• The conductor or field is moved by mechanical energy.
27. AC GENERATOR
• In an AC generator, a spinning magnetic field (rotor) rotates
inside the stator (windings).
• As the spinning north and south poles of the rotor pass the
conductors (stator windings) they induce a voltage that flows in
one direction, then as the rotor rotates in the opposite
direction.
28. DC GENERATOR
• A DC generator provides direct current. The biggest difference
between a motor and generator is wiring to the armature
(rotor).
• In a motor the armature receives current from a power source.
• In a generator the rotor is driven by a mechanical device
creating an AC voltage in the armature, reacting with the stator
windings to induce voltage.
29. DC GENERATOR
• The voltage induced is AC unless you reverse the polarity of the
stator output at the same time the voltage in the armature is
reversed.
• This is accomplished by a commutator. The commutator has
segments that reverse output when the armature voltage is
reversed.
30. STATOR WIRING CONFIGURATION
• Stators can be wired in a “wye” or a “delta” configuration.
• Designers can use either configuration depending on the
application of the electric machine and the levels of power at a
rated rpm.
• Named based on schematic wiring, not visual representation.
31. DELTA CONFIGURATION
• The delta winding received its name because its shape
resembles the greek letter delta.
• Delta windings are used when higher amperages are needed.
(lower volts)
32. WYE CONFIGURATION
• The wye winding resembles the letter “Y”.
• Wye winding configurations are used in applications where high
volts at low speeds are required.
33. MOTOR CONTROL
• Most hybrids use an AC synchronous motor and is controlled as
follows:
1. To change the speed of the motor the frequency of the
applied current is changed. (Rotor and Stator move at same
speed, synchronized)
2. The pulse-width and voltage is adjusted to change the
current, which controls the power output. (torque)
34. MOTOR CONTROL MODULE
• All electric machines use a module to control electric motor
torque, speed, and direction.
• The module monitors various inputs and rotor position to
determine which driver circuits to the stator (electric motor) are
turned on.
• Module also monitors current with hall effect sensors in each of
the electric stator windings. (uses current and rotor
position/direction/speed to determine torque)
36. RESOLVERS AND ENCODERS
• Mild hybrids don’t start off in electric mode, so they can utilize
an encoders. Encoders can’t determine exact rotor position.
• Since full hybrids can start off in electric mode, the module
needs to know the EXACT position of the rotor to synchronize
the electric motor and generate rotation. It achieves this
through the use of a “Resolver”. Sometimes the terms resolver
and encoder are interchanged.
37. RESOLVER
• A resolver is a sensor that provides two sine waves to a motor
controller to indicate absolute rotor position, direction, and
speed. It can detect position when stationary.
• The inverter sends an AC voltage signal to an exciter winding in
the sensor. This creates a magnetic field.
• The rotor end is elliptical, causing deviations in the magnetic
field as it passes the other two windings.
39. CAPACITORS
• Capacitors consist of two conductive plates with an insulating
material between them (dielectric).
• When a capacitor is placed in a closed circuit to a battery.
Because electrons can’t flow through the capacitor, excess
electrons collect on what becomes the negatively charged plate.
• At the same time the other plate loses electrons, becoming
positively charged.
40. CAPACITORS
• Current continues until the voltage charge across the capacitor
equals source voltage.
• Capacitors are used to suppress voltage spikes, and
supplement voltage losses.
• Capacitors are also known as condensers because they
“condense” electrons.
NOTE: ALWAYS assume capacitors are
charged, until proven to be discharged.
Treat all circuits attached as potentially
deadly.
42. CAPACITORS
• Rated in microfarads (ability to store a charge) at a specific
voltage.
• Can’t determine how deadly based on microfarads, must also
consider voltage.
43. SNUBBERS
• Used to control the high-voltage surges that occur in circuits
containing coils that are switched on and off.
• Used to protect the switching device. (alternate path)
44. INVERTER
• Current flow through the electric motor stator is controlled by
six Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT’s) by the control
module.
• The inverter by definition inverts high-voltage DC current to
high-voltage three phase AC current. (120 degrees apart)
• Transistor base is controlled by fiber
optics to isolate the voltages.
45. INVERTER
• May not create a perfect sine wave. It may be various stages of
rectangular signals, depending on voltage level, efficiency, and
horse power demand.
47. CONVERTERS
• There can be several inverters and converters in a hybrid.
• By definition a converter, either converts high-voltage AC
current to high-voltage DC current, or converts high-voltage
DC current to low-voltage DC current (DC to DC converter)
48. CONVERTER
• Using fly-back diodes (one way check valves) connected to the
IGBT’s, the inverter can convert AC to DC.
• Works like an alternator diode rectifier bridge.
49. DC TO DC CONVERTER
• We are all used to DC to DC converters, but may not know it.
PCM’s use a DC to DC converter to convert 12-14V system to
5V system for its Voltage Reference circuit (sensors)
• Hybrids utilize this kind of converter to replace the alternator.
It converts the high-voltage DC current in the battery to 14
volts. It uses this voltage to act as an alternator, charging the
auxiliary system.
50. BOOST CONVERTER
• Can be used to increase voltage from the battery pack to the
electric motor.
• Works like the converter that lowers voltage but the primary
and secondary windings are changed to increase voltage.
51. OVER MODULATION
• The computer can control the IGBT’s in the inverter to alter the
sine wave of the three phase AC voltage to increase horsepower
and voltage. The trade off is it becomes less efficient.
• Think average voltage.
• Increases motor temperature.
52. COOLING THE INVERTER/CONVERTER
• Current flow and the electronic devices in a hybrid vehicle
produce a lot of heat. Toyota, Ford, and GM use liquid cooling
to control temperatures.
• Usually consists of a separate cooling system, or loop with its
own valve (not thermostat) and electric pump.
