we wont use copper as a heating element because it expands on heating and it can effect the thermostat
The main use of a heating element, as suggested by its name, is to convert energy into heat. For general information about heating elements, Wikipedia is a great resource.
for electric / heating / DWV / domestic potable water supply
That would most likely be a nickel and chrome alloy. Light bulbs use tungsten.
Heating element is the main part of the ironbox which gets heated as current passes through it. We have to use the material for heating element with features such as: 1) high melting point 2) high specific resistance 3) not easily oxidised. (most important point) Hence the alloy NICHROME ( nickel and chromium) is used for heating element because it is not oxidised even at high temperatures.
Yes, copper piping is usually recommended for both hot and cold water systems.
No. Potassium metal is to reactive and expensive for everyday use.
Clean any removable parts in the dishwasher or sink, then use an orange-based cleaner for the inside, being careful around the heating element.
Pure copper is too soft to be any use so an alloy of copper and iron (or a similar metal) would be used.
Silver but it's more expensive so we tend to use copper more for conducting electricity
There are various elements that have not been discovered yet. This is a sample sentence containing element in it.
The No No hair removal device is generally recommended for adults only due to the heating element involved. It is not designed or tested for use on children's skin, and it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for safe usage.
An electric heating element heats the tip just above the melting temperature of the solder being used.
