A method is disclosed for starting a generator (10) from an internal combustion engine (14) to allow the generator ( 10) to charge a battery (32). The generator (10) includes a field bridge (36), having first (72) and second (74) switches, and a multiphase inverter (30), having upper (60, 62, 64) an
A method is disclosed for starting a generator (10) from an internal combustion engine (14) to allow the generator ( 10) to charge a battery (32). The generator (10) includes a field bridge (36), having first (72) and second (74) switches, and a multiphase inverter (30), having upper (60, 62, 64) and lower (66, 68, 70) halves of switches. The method includes the step of providing a voltage from the battery ( 32) to the internal combustion engine (14). The voltage is used to crank the internal combustion engine (14). The first ( 72) and second (74) switches are closed to conduct and maximize the field current in the generator (10). The method includes the step of identifying when the internal combustion engine ( 14) is transitioning from a cranking state to an idling state. The method then switches the first (72) and second (74) switches off to decrease the field current to zero. The method also turns the lower half of the switches (66, 68, 70) of the multiphase inverter on to quicken the decrease of the field current in the generator (10) to zero. This further reduces the amount of power consumed by the generator (10) to allow the internal combustion engine ( 14) to reach its idling state.

What is claimed: 1. A method for starting of an alternator (10) from an internal combustion engine (14) to charge a battery (32), wherein alternator (10) includes a field bridge (36), having first (72) and second (74) switches, and a multiphase inverter (30), having upper (60, 62, 64) and lower (6
What is claimed: 1. A method for starting of an alternator (10) from an internal combustion engine (14) to charge a battery (32), wherein alternator (10) includes a field bridge (36), having first (72) and second (74) switches, and a multiphase inverter (30), having upper (60, 62, 64) and lower (66, 68, 70) halves of switches, the method comprising the steps of: providing a voltage from the battery (32) to the internal combustion engine (14); cranking the internal combustion engine (14); conducting the first (72) and second (74) switches to maximize the field current in the alternator (10); switching the first (72) and second (74) switches off to decrease the field current to zero; and turning on one of the upper (60, 62, 64) and lower (66, 68, 70) halves of switches of the multiphase inverter (30) to quicken the removal of the load from the alternator (10) to the internal combustion engine (14) to further reduce the amount of power consumed by the alternator ( 10) to allow the internal combustion engine (14) to reach the idling state. 2. A method as set forth in claim 1 including the step of turning off the one of the upper (60, 62, 64) and lower (66, 68, 70) halves of switches after the internal combustion engine (14) enters the idling state. 3. A method as set forth in claim 2 wherein the step of turning off the one of the upper (60, 62, 64) and lower (66, 68, 70) halves of switches occurs in less than 50 milliseconds from the step of turning on the one of the upper ( 60, 62, 64) and lower (66, 68, 70) halves of switches. 4. A method as set forth in claim 3 including the step of identifying when the internal combustion engine (14) is transitioning from a cranking state to an idling state. 5. A method as set forth in claim 4 wherein the step of identifying occurs prior to the step of switching.
