A heating element is a device used for conversion of electric energy into heat, consisting of a heating resistor and accessories. [1] Heat is generated by the passage of electric current through a resistor through a process known as Joule heating .
The heating element inside every electric heater is an electrical resistor, and works on the principle of Joule heating: an electric current passing through a resistor will convert that electrical energy into heat energy.
Electric heaters operate based on Joule's Law. They consist of electrical elements that generate heat to warm the heater's core. When an electric current flows through the resistors within the heater, these resistors heat up and release energy as heat.
