A normal kettle is a semi-closed metal container (with lid and spout) of water. When placed on a flame, the water inside the kettle heats up until it reaches boiling point. It is then ready to be taken off the flame and the boiling water poured into a teapot, or some other beverage, etc.

How does a Crofton Electric Water Kettle work?

There is a heating element in the kettle. As the water boils, the inner temperature of the kettle rises. Once the boiling temperature is reached, a small thermostat is triggered which turns the kettle off, so as to not boil continually. This thermostat works optimally with the lid on the kettle fully closed, if the lid is not fully closed, it does not switch the kettle off as quickly.


How does convection work in a kettle?

In a kettle, convection works by heating water at the bottom of the kettle. As the water gets hot, it becomes less dense and rises to the top, displacing the cooler water. This creates a circular flow of water as hotter water rises and cooler water sinks, leading to even heating of the entire volume of water in the kettle.


How does an electric kettle work to heat water efficiently and quickly?

An electric kettle works by using a heating element to quickly heat water. When the kettle is turned on, electricity flows through the heating element, which generates heat. The heat is transferred to the water, causing it to heat up rapidly. The design of the kettle allows for efficient heat transfer, resulting in fast boiling times.
