Which of the following is NOT a desirable property in a good heating element?
Which of the following is NOT a desirable property in a good heating element?
Right Answer is:
High temperature coefficient of resistance
SOLUTION
Properties of good Heating Element:
The performance and life of heating elements depend on the properties of the material used for the heating element. The required properties in the material used for heating elements are:
- Low-temperature coefficient of resistance.
- High melting point.
- Free from oxidation in an open atmosphere.
- High tensile strength.
- Sufficient ductility to draw the metal or alloy in the form of wire.
- High resistivity.
