Ceiling fan is a Single phase Induction motor. Generally we use a capacitor start &Run AC Motor for ceiling Fans.
Motor principle: whenever current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field-it experiences force.
Stator: supplied by 1-phase voltage, current will produce in the stator winding-so magnetic field. But AC motor needs a rotating magnetic field in order turn the motor shaft (fan blades). This is done by applying voltage with different phases to different windings. In a single phase system (like at your house where you would use a ceiling fan) there is only one voltage phase. The capacitor is used to provide a phase shift (i.e. a time offset between currents) in the windings of the motor, making it appear that the motor is operating in a multiphase system.In Simple Terms, A single Phase is Split Into Two. There are also other methods to split Phase But using a capacitor is less expensive.
Now we have magnetic field.
We need current carrying conductor:
Because of Induction, voltage will develop in rotor as It is a closed circuit current will produce-so current carrying conductor placed in magnetic field.
Rotor will rotate.
The angle of pitch of the fan blade in relationship to the air it is moving through forces the air to move along the blade angle surface depending on the rotational direction of the blade. To reverse the rotation of the blades there should be a reversing switch on the fan body. Remember in the winter time your ceiling fan should push the room air in an upwards motion and in the summertime the ceiling fan should push the room air in a downwards motion.

Fans don't cool the air; they actually make it a little warmer. By causing more air to cross the surface of your skin, fans increase the rate of evaporation of your perspiration. The process of evaporation draws heat from your body, making you feel cooler. The less water vapor that is in the air, the more rapidly the body cools.
A ceiling fan moves air just like other fans.
The ceiling fan motor is that of a single phase induction motor. Force is exerted when a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, which makes the blades of the fan to rotate.
motor used in fan is universal motor, which can work both on Ac or Dc . The working principle is similar to the ordinary motor
In order to use a ceiling fan a person just needs to turn the ceiling fan on. Some ceiling fans are turned on by flipping of a switch. For some, you need to pull the chain of the ceiling fan.

There is a specific type of ceiling fan made for outdoor use. Outside ceiling fans are made with protective coatings and material to protect the motor casing to keep out moisture and other outdoor elements that could cause a regular, indoor fan to stop working.
This makes no sense.
No, You can't until you buy a new one
Not very much... A large ceiling fan (approx 56" in diameter) uses about 85 watts.
Wire nuts
An electric ceiling fan was invented by the man who had engineered the electric motor used in the first Singer sewing machines, Philip Diehl. In 1882 he adapted that motor for use in a ceiling-mounted fan.
It's a fan that hangs from your ceiling.
The capacitor in a ceiling fan is a small fuse like device which helps the fan to slow down or rotate faster. It is normally inserted into the ceiling unit of fan just about the fins.
for some use
A ceiling fan that mounts directly to the ceiling with no down-rod.

It should not be necessary to 'break in' a ceiling fan.

There is no actual real significant difference, besides the color. A black ceiling fan works the exact same as a white ceiling fan. Of course, the brand of the fan might make a difference, though the color of the fan will not.
