8.5 KW Electric Deep Fryer Heating Element

Product Description

Two Different Features allow the flat heater to work at a lower sheath temperature than a equally powered round tubular element:

1. Flat surface

Because of its design,flat tubular heaters will heat viscous fluids from ambient temperature faster than round tubular heater elements with the same wattage and at a lower sheath temperature.

The benefit of this shape is the enhanced flow of liquid past the surface of the heating element.The round tubular heater has a much more erratic flow pattern.The currents swirl around and trap heat next to the sheath due to the round shape.

The flow pattern around the flat tubular heater is streamlined, the flat surface has less restriction on the liquid as it moves up and past the heater.The efficient and faster flow pattern permits the liquid to move the heat away from the sheath very quickly, resulting in the flat tubular heater’s lower operating sheath temperature.

2.  Better buoyancy

Natural convection phenomena depends partially upon the ratio of a buoyant force to the viscus force of the heated fluid. This buoyant force or flow of liquid up and across the heater surface which is primarily determined by the size of the boundary layer of the heater(the sides of the heater).

The diameter of the flat heater element is 30mm compared to the 8mm/10m round tubular element.Depending on the material being heated,this creates a buoyancy force up to 10 times greater than a round tubular element.
