Question

Which of the following properties is true for good heating element?

A.

High temperature coefficient of resistance

B.

Low oxidizing temperature

C.

Low temperature coefficient of resistance

D.

Low melting temperature

Correct option is C

· A good heating element should have a low temperature coefficient of resistance.
· This means that its resistance should not change significantly with temperature.
· This property ensures that the heating element provides consistent performance and efficient heat generation over a wide range of operating temperatures.
High temperature coefficient of resistance: Not desirable as it would cause the resistance to change significantly with temperature, leading to instability and inefficiency.
Low oxidizing temperature: Not desirable as it would mean the material oxidizes easily at lower temperatures, reducing the lifespan of the heating element.
Low melting temperature: Not desirable as it would mean the element melts easily under high temperatures, which is not suitable for a heating element.
