Q&A about ac motors and induction motors
What is single phase AC engine?
Single phase induction engine is an AC electric motor were electricity is changed into mechanical energy to execute some physical task. This induction motor requires only one power phase for their proper procedure. They are commonly found in low power applications, in household and industrial use.
How does an AC motor function single phase?
The stator of an individual phase induction electric motor is wound with single phase winding. When the stator is fed with an individual phase supply, it creates alternating flux (which alternates along one space axis just). Alternating flux acting on a squirrel cage rotor cannot produce rotation, only revolving flux can.
Can a single phase motor run with out a capacitor?
Single-phase induction motors are not self-starting lacking any auxiliary stator winding driven by an away of stage current of near 90°. Once started the auxiliary winding is definitely optional. The auxiliary winding of a long lasting split capacitor motor includes a capacitor in series with it during starting and running.
How can you Single Phase Induction Motor reverse a single phase 
motor?
Once started, an individual phase induction motor will happily run in either direction. To reverse it, we need to change the path of the rotating magnetic field made by the main and starter windings. And this can be accomplished by reversing the polarity of the starter winding.
