  2. Motor capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_capacitor

    A typical motor start capacitor. A motor capacitor [1] [2] is an electrical capacitor that alters the current to one or more windings of a single-phase alternating-current induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field. [citation needed] There are two common types of motor capacitors, start capacitor and run capacitor (including a dual run ...

  3. AC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

    An AC motor is an electric motor driven by an alternating current (AC). The AC motor commonly consists of two basic parts, an outside stator having coils supplied with alternating current to produce a rotating magnetic field , and an inside rotor attached to the output shaft producing a second rotating magnetic field.

  4. Electrostatic motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_motor

    An electrostatic motor or capacitor motor is a type of electric motor based on the attraction and repulsion of electric charge. An alternative type of electrostatic motor is the spacecraft electrostatic ion drive thruster where forces and motion are created by electrostatically accelerating ions.

  5. Capacitor types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_types

    AC loads can occur in AC motor run capacitors, for voltage doubling, in snubbers, lighting ballast and for PFC for phase shifting to improve transmission network stability and efficiency, which is one of the most important applications for large power capacitors. These mostly large PP film or metallized paper capacitors are limited by the rated ...

  6. Inrush current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inrush_current

    Instantaneous current declines to steady-state current as the capacitor reaches full charge. In the case of open circuit, the capacitor will be charged to the peak AC voltage (one cannot actually charge a capacitor with AC line power, so this refers to a varying but unidirectional voltage; e.g., the voltage output from a rectifier).

  7. Applications of capacitors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_capacitors

    The start capacitor is typically mounted to the side of the motor housing. These are called capacitor-start motors, and have relatively high starting torque. There are also capacitor-run induction motors which have a permanently connected phase-shifting capacitor in series with a second winding. The motor is much like a two-phase induction motor.

  8. Flexible AC transmission system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexible_AC_transmission...

    Power flow is increased by adding a series capacitor to offset line inductance or decreased by adding a series load-flow reactor to add to the line inductance. One type of series compensation is the Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC), which combines the TCR from an SVC in parallel with a traditional fixed series capacitor. As using ...

  9. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    The circle diagram can be drawn for alternators, synchronous motors, transformers, induction motors. The Heyland diagram is an approximate representation of a circle diagram applied to induction motors, which assumes that stator input voltage, rotor resistance and rotor reactance are constant and stator resistance and core loss are zero.
