A capacitor builds and holds a charge until required. Larger motors require a temporary boost in electrical power in the start-up phase in order to overcome the inertia of a motionless stator. Once the stator begins to spin, the capacitor disengages from the starting circuit.
AnswerCapacitors are used to provide the starting torque for single-phase induction motors. They do this by causing the current through the starting winding to be out of phase with the current through the main winding, causing the resulting magnetic fields to naturally rotate, cutting the bars of the rotor, and inducing voltages into them. The resulting combination of fields provides the starting torque on the rotor. Once the machine is running, this amount of torque is no longer necessary and the capacitor is disengaged. Further to the original answer, the charge on a capacitor cannot 'build up and hold' when subjected to a.c., and most certainly cannot provide a 'boost' -temporary or otherwise!
Ac motor has a low starting torque so that DC series motor used in railways cause DC motor has high starting torque
To induce a phase shift between the rotor and stator (stationary winding). AC motors are not good at starting up, they need 'help' to get started/they need two magnetic fields to push against each other to generate torque. This capacitor is called a 'starting' capacitor and provides an extra 'boost' to get the motor turning by increasing the phase angle between the rotor and stator winding. Once the motor is at it's proper operating speed, the capacitor must be disconnected or it will burn up. There are also motor designs that use a run capacitor. This capacitor usually has a smaller capacitance than a start capacitor (so it provides a smaller phase shift), but is designed for continuous operation. These motors don't provide as much starting torque as a similar motor with a start capacitor. Other motors will have both a start and run capacitor. The start capacitor provides significant phase shift between the rotor and stator, and thus significant torque. Once the motor is at speed, the start capacitor is switched out of the circuit, and the run capacitor is left in the circuit to provide a smaller phase shift.
Due to the type of motor used in a fan. The capacitor provides a phase shift between the stationary winding and the rotating winding, which is necessary to get the desired torque.
mostly because fans use induction motors therefore the starting torque is less,this is provided by the capacitor by increasing the voltageThere are usually two capacitors in a ceiling fan motor. One is the "start" capacitor and the other is the "run" capacitor. Simply put, an AC motor needs a rotating magnetic field in order turn the motor shaft. This is done by applying voltage with different phases to different windings. In a single phase system there is only one voltage phase. The capacitor is used to provide a phase shift in the windings of the motor, making it appear that the motor is operating in a multiphase system.
in a ceiling fan the capacitor is used to give the starting torque to motor for run. because we need a rotating type of magnetic field to the motor to run. once the motor run it become running even we disconnect the capacitor. by using the capacitor we produce the electrica difference(phase angle) between the two current taking by capacitor and the motor winding.
A capacitor is used in a ceiling fan to control the speed of the motor by altering the phase angle between the current and voltage. Capacitors help the motor to start and run smoothly at different speeds without drawing too much current. It also helps in reducing power consumption and improving the efficiency of the fan.
There are 2 types of capacitor including starting capacitor and running capacitor running capacitor are used to improve the power factor of motor. starting capacitor used in split phase induction motor . starting capacitor may isolate from motor,s starting winding through of centrifugal switch after getting motor 90% of it,s rated speed.
We use capacitor on fan motor or blower to create phase difference between two winding(Starting & running). This phase difference introduce starting torque on fan motor. Otherwise without capacitor the torque produced in positive Half cycle of AC supply is nullify by the torque produced in negative half cycle.

A CSIR motor stands for Capacitor Start-Induction Run motor, which is a type of single-phase induction motor commonly used in household appliances like refrigerators and air conditioners. It uses a capacitor to provide the starting torque needed to initiate rotation, then operates as a standard induction motor once up to speed.
If I understand the question, a "run" capacitor is used in a squirrel-cage motor to create a phase shift in one of the windings. The result is a rotating magnetic field within the motor which causes the rotor to rotate in sympathy. In synchronous motors, a "start" capacitor is used to create a rotating field for starting, then disconnected.

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.
