Electrolytic capacitors or film capacitors.

The capacitor in an electric fan is used to start the motor, and the speed is controlled by the current of the governor.

The size of the startup capacitor can only change the startup speed of the fan. Once the fan is started, that is, once the capacitor is discharged, the capacitor only plays the role of isolating DC. It will no longer participate in the operation of the fan. Because the capacitor only has the function of charging and discharging.

Why fan is a electrical device?

Not all fans are electrical devices, but many are. To be effective, a fan must have some source of energy input to cause them to move air. Many ancient cultures used hand-powered or hand-held fans.

Why do you use a dc capacitor in table fans while an ac capacitor in a ceiling fan?

there is no separate capacitors for AC and DC. All capacitors are same. Electrolytic capacitors are manufactured by creating a die-electric by chemical etching or electroplating on one plate. Such capacitors when connected in AC circuit dislodges the die-electric material and thus results in short circuit between the two parallel plates of the capacitor. For AC circuits only non-electrolytic capacitors should be used. The common type is oil impregnated paper capacitor.
