You need a large solar panel and a small fan with a universal motor. Solar panels output DC. Universal motors are so named because they run on both AC and DC. The fan's rated voltage must match the rated output voltage of the solar panel. You will also need a switch to disconnect the fan when the output of the solar panel drops below the rated voltage of the fan, preferably one that will connect manually and disconnect automatically.

Search solar panel manufacturers and you will find many suppliers. Also try suppliers of camping gear.

Yes you can provided the fan motor is "DC" and the output power is equivalent to the voltage and current draw of the fan motor. You might want to put more than one Solar panel in series if you need a higher DC voltage. If you need more Current you can place them in parallel. You can do a combination of parallel and series if you need to. With enough solar panel power you can power almost any DC unit. Another possibility is to run the output of the panels to a Voltage Converter that changes DC to AC voltage. You can use the panel to charge batteries if you choose and then you could operate day or night. Solar Panels are expensive, so be sure of what you are wanting to do and then proceed. They require careful handling and sunlight, an occasional cleaning and you will have an eternal source of power!!!!!!!

The power requirement of the fan will determine the size of your solar panel. Having that fan available at night might make it worth your while to have a battery since the unused power from the solar panel would also charge the battery. If the fan needs 12 volts at 1 amp, then a solar panel that would produce 12 watts would be needed. You would probably need a panel rated at 15 to 20 watts. 2 panels could be wired in parallel, red wire to red wire, and black wire to black wire from the panels (or + to +, and - to -) so that 2 10 watt panels would provide the power. A battery would continue to run the fan should a cloud get in the way of the sun, and you still wanted the fan to operate. A solar panel only produces DC power. You need an inverter, or a generator to get AC power. I could explain, but I am not sure that you would understand. The reason is that the light causes the photosensitive material in the cell to produce an excess of electrons. That excess of electrons will only "flow" in one direction.

Yes it's possible. Solar panels output DC. Any light battery-operated fan will easily run from a panel. No devices required but a fan and the panel.

it fairly isn't an actual analogy, yet think of of it this style: Volts is the stress of the water in a pipe. Amps is the gallons consistent with minute that pop out. Watts is how lots water you have after a undeniable length of time the pipe is open. a 200 watt photograph voltaic panel decrease than appropriate situations ( vivid daylight hours between , say 10 am and a couple of pm, held precisely flat to the sunlight ) will produce adequate capability to run 2 one hundred watt easy bulbs. You hardly have suited vivid sunlight; the size of the day varies throughout the 300 and sixty 5 days, and the perspective of the panel to the sunlight adjustments from hour to hour; all this ends up in a typical homestead in the U. S. /Europe having basically approximately 4 hours an afternoon of "optimal photograph voltaic" attainable. So, your 200 watt panel would provide you 800 watts an afternoon, adequate to run one one hundred watt easy bulb for 8 hours in case you attempt to run a house off photograph voltaic, there are regrettably different issues mandatory between the panels and the lights / home equipment; inverters, batteries, controllers sand each and every eats up a splash capability so which you would be able to get basically one hundred seventy five smart watts. See why extra properties don't have panels? the different poster who mentioned $30-50,000 to thoroughly run a house on panels is approximately applicable.

Solar panels produce electricity from Sun rays. Panels produce electricity in DC form so you have to convert that DC current into AC. If you are using a device which can run on DC voltage then you can directly attach that device with your solar batteries.
