Description
Generally, Starter Generators are used on turboprop, helicopter, and light jet aircraft serving the commercial and military markets and are self-excited machines incorporating four main poles and four interpoles. During on-ground operation, a fan attached to the anti-drive end of the drive shaft supplies forced-air cooling. In flight, the starter generator and the fan are blast-cooled through the air inlet and the aircraft’s air duct system.
