  2. Motor capacitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_capacitor

    Motor capacitors are used with single-phase electric motors [3]: 11 that are in turn used to drive air conditioners, hot tub/jacuzzi spa pumps, powered gates, large fans or forced-air heat furnaces for example. [1] A "dual run capacitor" is used in some air conditioner compressor units, to boost both the fan and compressor motors. [1]

    The Flux Capacitor as seen in a replica DeLorean Time Machine. The flux capacitor, which consists of a rectangular-shaped compartment with three flashing Geissler-style tubes arranged in a "Y" configuration, is described by Doc as "what makes time travel possible". The device is the core component of the time machine.

  4. Capacitor plague - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague

    The capacitor plague was a problem related to a higher-than-expected failure rate of non-solid aluminium electrolytic capacitors between 1999 and 2007, especially those from some Taiwanese manufacturers, [1] [2] due to faulty electrolyte composition that caused corrosion accompanied by gas generation; this often resulted in rupturing of the ...

    The earliest stack-motor fan was the Emerson, which was an earlier version of the model that was later called "Heat-Fan", a utilitarian fan with a dropped metal flywheel and blades made of fiberglass and later moulded plastic depending on the model. This fan was produced in numerous different forms from 1962 through 2005 and, while targeted at ...
