Its found at the bottom of the kettle because its uses convection currents to heat it up. The heating element warms up the water at the bottom, and because when water is hot its less dense, so it will rise to the surface, cool, and sink down again to be warmed up. Its a repetitive cycle that will eventually not give the water time to cool down far enough to sink, which is how you get it to boil. Like a stove and a hot air balloon.

When the plantations workers found the first Olmec head, they thought they were looking at the bottom of a large iron kettle. It was their hopes that the kettle contained gold, but realized it was a sculpture of a huge head after digging and digging.
A heating mantle is the best way to heat a liquid in a round bottom flask. The heating mantle can be either rigid or soft, but heats the flask by heating an electric coil which surrounds the round bottom flask. Heating mantles come in different sizes to best match the size of the found bottom flask for a snug fit around the entire bottom of the flask. They are commonly used in distillations and other heated reactions.A heating mantle if much better than a hot plate because the heating mantle makes contact with the entire bottom surface of a round bottom flask. It is also much better than a Bunsen burner for heating flammable liquids.See the Related Questions and Web Links to the left for more information.
The heating element found inside a flashlight bulb is typically made of tungsten, which has a high melting point and can withstand the heat generated in the bulb. Nechrom is not a common material used in flashlight bulbs.
A flashlight bulb typically contains a tungsten filament as the heating element. When electricity passes through the filament, it heats up and produces light through incandescence.
At the bottom of the square in most of the ones that I've seen.
Yes. There are many in the area around the Kettle Moraine area of Wisconsin.
Most are found either in the heating element itself or in the socket - try replacing both
A kettle, knifes and a knife sharpener are found in the kitchen.
I just put an upper heating element in my Hotpoint 40 gal. hot water heater. In putting a meter on the element, I found that I had 200+ volts. When I put the meter on the lower element it didn't budge. Might I have a defective lower thermostat? What might be preventing the voltage to reach the lowere heating element? Thank you for your anticipated input

Kettle minerals can vary based on location, but common minerals found in kettles include calcium, magnesium, potassium, and manganese. These minerals can contribute to the overall taste and quality of the water boiled in the kettle.
