2. Heating element - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

   Radiative heating elements (heat lamps) are high-powered incandescent lamps that run at less than maximum power to radiate mostly infrared instead of visible light. These are usually found in radiant space heaters and food warmers, taking either a long, tubular form or an R40 reflector-lamp form. The reflector lamp style is often tinted red to ...

3. Cooktop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooktop

   An induction cooktop involves the electrical heating of a cooking vessel by magnetic induction instead of by radiation or thermal conduction from an electrical heating element or from a flame. Because inductive heating directly heats the vessel, very rapid increases in temperature can be achieved and changes in heat settings are fast, similar ...

4. Gas stove - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_stove

   One of the important properties of a gas stove is the heat emitted by the burners. Burner heat is typically specified in terms of kilowatts or British Thermal Units per hour and is directly based on the gas consumption rather than heat absorbed by pans. Often, a gas stove will have burners with different heat output ratings. For example, a gas ...

5. Electric heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

   Most modern electric heating devices use nichrome wire as the active element; the heating element, depicted on the right, uses nichrome wire supported by ceramic insulators. Alternatively, a heat pump can achieve around 150% – 600% efficiency for heating, or COP 1.5 - 6.0 Coefficient of performance , because it uses electric power only for ...

   When a winter storm is on the way, everyone rushes to the grocery store.If you don't join them quickly, the shelves could be bare by the time those first flurries fall.

7. Self-regulating heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-regulating_heater

   For example, space heaters use heating elements much hotter than the room being heated. In these applications, a thermostat may be better able to sense and control the temperature of the item being heated. Nevertheless, a self-regulating heating element may still be used to keep the heating element from damaging itself or other parts of the heater.
