How does a fan work ? | Single phase induction motor

Discover how an electric fan works with this in-depth exploration of the single-phase induction motor! In this video, we break down the essential components of fan motors, including the stator, rotor, and the role of CBB61 capacitors in creating a rotating magnetic field. Learn about the fascinating oscillation mechanism, the science of electromagnetism, and how Michael Faraday's law and Fleming’s right-hand rule explain motor operation. Whether you're curious about the function of a squirrel cage rotor or the impact of capacitive reactance, this video covers it all. Perfect for DIY enthusiasts and anyone interested in understanding the engineering behind electric fans!

I had been fixing a multitude of these thingies for almost 40 years and this is the very first and only time I completely understood how the heck it works! The BEST ILLUSTRATED explanation tutorial I'd ever come across!

[upalimadana]

Very very clearly you describe what happens in the electric. AC motor. You are very good teacher. I completely understood how ac motor rotate
Thank you very much

I’m setting in my living room using a fan exactly like the one in the video to keep cool… except mine does not have a Prof Mad starter capacitor. 🤣

Great job explaining everything. 👍

I learnt from this video on single phase induction motor

[satheeshkumarbabu]

My doubt has been cleared now. Thanks for your explanation and animation.

[retopoltera-meng]

Very good eplaining for a beginner like me!!!!

[shastriroopchand]

Good video.
Just don't forget the thermal fuse for protection.

[stevenormandin]

FINALLY a REAL explanation of how an induction motor works Thanks :)

[aasaithambi]

Super Sir.
Very well explained.
Thank you very much.
❤❤❤❤

That explanation was literally insane! I guess that's why you're called Professor Mad. And I thought it was because you were angry. 😁

[wczgons]

It is very clear to understand how a fan operate.

[Unknown-mnui]

Thank you for this useful information❤

[dragan]

This is the best way to learn! For me anyway.

[myetis]

thanks for the great video.

many of those have 3 state mechanical switch for speed control, It would be great if it is explained as well.

[sylvesterjohn]

Thank you very much, this video explains the working of an electric motor clearly.

[longanghoai]

Very good ! But you should describe interference of 2 main flux perpendicular each other and phase shift 90o to create out rotation magnetic fields on stator !

[azzamdaaboul]

Amazing work! The level of detail in your animations is incredible. Could you share what software you used to create such powerful visuals?

[dpk]

Very Informative videos, and Can you make a video on Star and delta connection, how there are different to each other and how voltage and currents are calculated, using animation. Wating for your videos, Thanks!

[priyanga_senanayake]

Great Prof. Curious to know how the efficiency vary between Stand fans vs Ceiling fans...

Good video. But, actually, the magnetic field in the stator coils does not actually rotate, in the same way as if you were to put an axle though the center of a bar magnet and rotate it. We only infer continuous motion, the same way we infer the motion we see in arcade lights. We see continuous, even smooth, movement where there is none.
