Immersion heating element with a thermally-conductive polymeric coating disposed over a resistance wire |
摘要 |
Electrical resistance heating elements (100) are provided which are useful in heating fluid mediums, such as air and water. The heating elements include an element body (100) having a supporting surface (10) and a resistance wire (14) wound onto the supporting surface (10) which is connected to a pair of terminal end portions (16 and 12). Disposed over the resistance wire (14), and over most of the supporting surface (10), is a polymeric coating (30) which hermetically encapsulates and electrically insulates the resistance wire (14) from the fluids to be heated. This thermally-conductive polymer coating (30) has a thermal conductivity value of at least about 0.5 W/mK. Improved properties are provided by ceramic powder, aluminum oxide and magnesium oxide, and glass fiber additives.
