Heater coil is made of alloys such as meganin wire ,and is having high melting point .Alloys have high resistance due to which most of electrical energy is converted into heat energy.According to joules law of heating heat produced in a conductor is directly propotional to square of current and is directly proptional to resistance of conductor and time for which current flows.Heater wire does not glow because of having less resistance

Is a solenoid a coil of wire that has a current?
YESA solenoid is a coil of wire, which turns into a magnet when a?current?flows through
What happens when a coil or wire is connected to a source of direct current?
Since the resistance of ordinary wire is so small, a large current (Amps) flows in the coil. It most likely stresses the power supply, and the wire most likely gets hot. But as long as the hook-up lasts, you've got a significant magnetic field inside the coil. You can pick up pins, needles, and paper clips with it, and shoot nails through the center along the axis of the coil when the DC is switched on.
What is the difference between a filament of a bulb and an element of an electric heater?
The heater element is thicker wire, and has lower resistance. It still has enough resistance to glow red hot (producing heat) but does not glow white-hot and very brightly like a light bulb filament. Also, it lasts almost indeifnitely. whereas the light bulb filament has a finite life - it will "burn out" sooner or later.
What is a coil of wire with current?
solenoid!
How do you find the length of a coil of wire without unraveling it?
You know that each 'wrap' or turn of wire in the coil has to go all the way around the coil-form, and you know how to calculate the distance around a circle. So all you have to do is count the number of times the wire goes around the coil, measure the coil's diameter, calculate its circumference, and multiply that by the number of turns in the coil.
Where does the red wire in a baseboard heater connect to the black or white wire in the wall?
In the heater you will have two wires. You should then have 2 supply wires from the panel, and 2 wires from the thermostat. The neutral (white) supply wire should go to one of the wires on the heater. The hot (black) supply wire should connect to one wire from the thermostat. The other wire from the thermostat will connect to the other wire from the heater.
How cigarette lighter with small piece of electric coil withstand with high current?
A: That small coil is micron wire it has resistance. Current trough it makes it to glow
Copper pipe used in solar water heater is wrapped in the shape of coil give reason?
The copper wire used in the solar water heater is wrapped in the shape of the coil to increase its surface area.
Where is the glow plug fuse located for a 1994 jetta?
Follow the glow plug supply wire from the engine to the firewall. The small box mounted there has the fuse mounted under the cover.
What to a SUV when the ignition coil burnt?
the question,im not sure what your asking but the ignition coil would be the coil that feeds spark to you distributor,there woll be a coil wire or spark plug wire that runs from the coil to the center of your distributor cap and will have an electril wire from your ignition that supply's 12 volts to the terminal marked "+" on the coil when the key switch is turned to the run or start pos.and a electrical wire that runs from the distributor to the terminal marked "-"on the coil,unless it is a newer vehicle that has a coil for every cylinder,which would have a coil mouter over or close by every spark plug.

What size breaker and wire for 2000 watt heater?
A 2000 watt heater draws 8.3 amps on a 240 v supply, so the cutout should be set to 10 or 12 amps. <<>> In North America a 2000 watt baseboard heater will be fed with a two pole 15 amp breaker. A two wire cable of #14 copper will be used to connect the supply voltage to the heater.
