1. heating element

   A heating element is a device or a component in an electrical or electronic appliance that generates heat due to resistance when an electric current is passed through it. These are used in various devices like stoves, ovens, water heaters, hair dryers, toasters, and many more appliances for heating purposes. The heating element is typically made of materials like nichrome, kanthal, cupronickel, etc. which have a high melting point and can withstand high temperatures.

1. Heating element

   A heating element converts electricity into heat through the process of Joule heating. Electric current through the element encounters resistance, resulting in heating of the element. Most heating elements use Nichrome 80/20 wire, ribbon, or strip. Nichrome 80/20 is an ideal material, because it has relatively high resistance and forms an adherent layer of chromium oxide when it is heated for the first time. Material beneath this layer will not oxidize, preventing the wire from breaking or burning out. ⁕Resistance wire: may be wire or ribbon, straight or coiled. Used in common items such as toasters and hair dryers, furnaces for industrial heating, floor heating, roof heating, pathway heating to melt snow, dryers, etc. Most common wires are from the following classes ⁕Molybdenum disilicide, an intermetallic compound, a silicide of molybdenum, is a refractory ceramic with primary use in heating elements. It has moderate density, melting point 2030 °C, and is electrically conductive. At high temperatures it forms a passivation layer of silicon dioxide, protecting it from further oxidation. The application area includes glass industry, ceramic sintering, heat treatment furnaces and semiconductor diffusion furnaces.
