Heat Pumps are devices which use small quantities of energy in order to move heat from one place to another. Usually they are used to pull heat from the air or the ground in order to warm a building. They can also be reversed in order to cool a building. They work much the same way as air conditioners do, except that they can do the work of both an air conditioner and a furnace. Therefore, when using heat pumps it is not necessary to install both heating and cooling systems – a single system performs both jobs. They are also more efficient than furnaces because they merely transfer heat rather than burn fuels to make it; but as a result, they work better in moderate rather than extreme climates. For people in moderate climates like Arizona, using heat pumps Arizona rather than furnaces and air conditioners can save considerable money on utility bills.

There are different types of heat pumps, but all of them operate on the principle of heat transfer, which means moving heat from one location to another rather than burning fuel to create it. Because of the second law of thermodynamics, heat naturally tends to flow from a place with a high temperature to one with a lower temperature. They use small amounts of energy to reverse that process, pulling heat from low temperature areas and moving it to high temperature areas – from a heat source such as the ground or air to a heat sink such as a building. A common type of heat pump is an air source one, which removes heat from air outside a building and pumps it through coils filled with refrigerant to the inside.

Air source heat pumps AZ consist of two fans, the refrigerator coils, a compressor and a reversing valve. One fan is used to bring outside air over the refrigerator coils, which transfer the heat inside where it is blown from the coils by a second fan and distributed through the building. The purpose of the reversing valve is to reverse the flow of refrigerant so the system operates backwards. Instead of pumping the heat inside the building, it releases the heat, like an air conditioner does. Then the refrigerant absorbs the heat inside the pump and carries it outside where it is released. Then the refrigerant cools down and flows back inside to take more heat.

Ground source heat pumps work the same way as air source ones except they absorb the heat from the ground, or from a body of water under the ground, and then transfer the heat indoors or vice versa when working in reverse mode. An absorption heat pump AZ is an air source unit which is powered by solar energy, propane, natural gas, or geothermically heated water instead of by electricity. The chief difference between air source models and absorption pumps is that instead of compressing the refrigerant, absorption ones absorb ammonia into water then a low power pump pressurizes it. The heat source boils the ammonia from the water and the process begins anew.

I want to run a ceiling fan backwards. I mean I want to create a generator out of it.?

I am in the process of making a small wind mill generator.
I am attempting to use a ceil;ing fan as my generator.
It is I believe and induction motor. There are two sets of coils on the stator. First set coils it placed nearest the rotor. The second set on an inner circumference. The rotor consist of lamineted layers. I do not have an LC meter so I do not know the impedance, but the mearused resistance of the coils are.
6.2 and 5.1 ohms. I am now reading that I will require EXCITATION capacitors for this to work. The documents that I have show a 3-phase motor convercion, thus it has 3 sets of coils where I only have 2.
Any comments on how to work this out? What value and type of capacitors do I need to use?

The motor in a ceiling fan cannot readily be converted to a generator. Skip that part of it. Also, the fan itself, if this is what you are trying to do, will not work efficiently as a wind turbine.

Put the ceiling fan back on the ceiling, and start from scratch on your project. You need a properly designed wind turbine, and a DC generator based electrical system.

There are a zillion articles available on how to do this, along with plans, kits, and various other approaches. Some work well, and others are less successful.

So the starting place is the library. You also might find what you need on the internet. But you also need some background knowledge. We recommend you take at least a basic course in electricity.
