These are actually single-phase induction motors. There is no electrical connection to the armature itself. To make the armature turn within the windings an electric current has to be induced in the it, and this is done by making the magnetic field move in relation to the armature. (The same principle is involved as moving a magnet over a wire to get an electric current.) With an electric current flowing in the armature there is a magnetic field set up around it which pushes against the magnetic field in the windings to make the armature turn.
OK, but how to make the magnetic field move? That's the purpose of the capacitor.
Capacitors have the property of advancing alternating current by (if I remember correctly) 90 degrees. In the simplest case, there are two windings in one of these motors. Unaltered electric current is sent through one of the windings. Some electric current is sent through the other winding and a capacitor. Now, because the two windings are being energised by currents that are out of phase by 90 degrees it is as if the magnetic field is moving. The armature responds by moving.

What is the purpose of capacitor in a single phase motor?
the purpose of the capacitor is to create a phase difference between main winding current and axillary winding. this would produce a rotating constant magnetic field which is required to produce the torque.
What are the types of single phase ac motor?
capacitor start motor
Why is a capacitor NOT used in a single phase motor?
Very often a capacitor IS used in a single-phase motor. It provides a phase-shifted current to the starting winding to ensure that the motor runs in the right direction, e.g. clockwise if that is the requirement.
Why can a run capacitor with a single phase motor remain in circuit after the motor starts?
A run capacitor is used to improve the efficiency and power factor of a single-phase motor by providing a phase shift to the auxiliary winding. Once the motor is running, the capacitor helps maintain a steady motor speed and performance. It remains in the circuit to assist in the motor's operation.

What are four types of single phase motors?
Some examples of single-phase motors include split-phase, capacitor-start, shaded pole, and permanent split capacitor (PSC) motors. Each type has its own unique design and application, offering different characteristics and performance capabilities.
Why do you connect a capacitor with an Ac motor?
The capacitor is used to create a second phase from the single phase power source and it is the interaction between these two phases that causes the motor to turn.
How single-phase induction motor classified?
The single phase induction motors are made self starting by providing an additional flux by some additional means. Now depending upon these additional means the single phase induction motors are classified as: 1.Split phase induction motor. 2.Capacitor start inductor motor. 3.Capacitor start capacitor run induction motor. 4. Shaded pole induction motor.
What motor is used for lathe spindle?
Single phase induction motor ( usually capacitor- start type)
Why do you use codenser in fan?
fan is a capacitor start capacitor run single phase induction motor. since single phase induction motors are not self starters, caused by discontinuty in stator mmf. so to iniate rotation single phase supply is splitted 90 degree apart by a capacitor to convert it to a 2 phase motor, which produces a continued synchronously revolving mmf in stator to start the motor. cool !!
What s the role of capacitor in a single phase induction motor?
to start the motor and give more current to motor to run
