1. Introduction Capacitor run single phase induction motors are extensively used in low power applications, such as fans, pumps etc. Controlling the voltage applied to the stator of these motors is the main strategy used to control their speed. There are many techniques to control this applied voltage.
That type of motor is called a permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor. The following is based on that assumption. Changing the capacitor value changes the amplitude and phase shift of the current in the auxiliary winding. Reducing the capacitor value lowers the torque values of the torque vs. speed curve as shown below.
Capacitors do not provide the RPM, this is decided by the frequency of the supply in a induction motor, the capacitor provides the correct phase shift in the split phase winding in order to provide the optimum phase angle relative to the supply. Max.
Basically, I have no idea about electrical engineering. As old oil-filled capacitors dry out, the capacitance goes down and the can't pass as much AC current. This type of motor is called "capacitor run induction motor". In order to create a rotating magnetic field, the capacitor is there to create a phase shift for one of the two motor windings.
If a small induction motor has a non-linear load, such as a fan, you can somewhat control the motor speed by reducing the motor voltage. In that case the motor no longer has sufficient torque to maintain its speed and starts operating at a lower speed, with a large amount of slip between the synchronous speed and the actual speed.
