A method for ascertaining a torque accuracy of a torque transmitted from a belt-driven starter-generator of an internal combustion engine to the internal combustion engine, which is similar to a learning process or a calibration of the actual torque of the starter-generator with respect to a setpoint torque, includes controlling the belt-driven starter-generator to transmit a specified test torque to the internal combustion engine during a predefined test time interval during coasting down of the internal combustion engine, determining a speed variable that is dependent on a speed of the internal combustion during the test time interval, comparing the speed variable to a reference variable, and deducing the torque accuracy from this comparison.

A method for ascertaining an accuracy of a torque transmitted by a belt-driven starter generator of an internal combustion engine to the internal combustion engine, the method being similar to a learning operation or a calibration of the actual torque of the starter generator with respect to a setpoint torque, includes: in an idling instance of the internal combustion engine, controlling the belt-driven starter generator to transmit a specified test torque to the internal combustion engine and decreasing the torque of the internal combustion engine by the specified test torque; determining and evaluating a speed variable, which is a function of a speed of the internal combustion engine; and deducing the torque accuracy from the evaluated speed variable.

A method for controlling an externally excited electric machine to boost regeneration of a NOx storage catalyst which is part of an assembly made up of an internal combustion engine, the externally excited electric machine which is connected to the internal combustion engine in a manner allowing the transmission of torque and which has a rotor including a rotor winding and a stator, and the NOx storage catalyst which is disposed in an exhaust-system branch downstream of the internal combustion engine, the rotor winding of the electric machine being energized with a preexcitation current as a function of an operating state of the NOx storage catalyst.

An electric machine having a stator () and a rotor () mounted rotatably by means of a rotor shaft () and having a potential equalization device containing a resistor element for breaking down shaft voltages occurring at the rotor shaft (), the resistor element contacting on the one hand a bus bar () of a slip ring module () and on the other hand the rotor shaft () at contact points, the resistor element being an electrical resistor () provided with electrical connection elements (). At least one connection element () of the electrical resistor () is electrically conductively connected to the potential of the rotor shaft () via a pressure contact by a pressure element.

A method for operating a separately excited electric machine, in particular, a generator of a motor vehicle, where an exciting current flows through a rotor winding of the electric machine at a nominal current intensity during a normal operation and at a holding current intensity in an idling operation; the holding current intensity being greater than zero and less than the nominal current intensity.
