Inleiding

The following study concerns a large part of the kettles on the market. There are variants but the operating principle remains more or less the same.

It is a simple object, therefore no particular difficulty to assimilate the operation.

The kettle is a kitchen utensil used to bring a liquid to a boil. Electric kettles, which are the subject of this study, have a built-in heater.
The most common models are the cordless kettles: the kettles are placed on a base (see photo) connected to an electrical outlet, during the heating phase. The container can then be detached from the base and used as an ordinary container.
The operation of the electric kettle is based on the Joule effect. The kettles are equipped with a heating resistor in the form of a ring-shaped tube. The current, when it passes through the resistor, causes an increase in the thermal energy of the ring: the water is heated by heat transfer.

Our study is of the Moulinex brand model AC10-10S011. It is 1100W.
The device consists of a base 1 and a container 2. The base is equipped with a power cord. It is equipped with a device 3 which ensures the electrical continuity with the heating resistor which is in the container. This device is secured to avoid any contact with the electrical conductors.
In the tank is a heating element 4. A switch allows to start and stop the heating. This kettle is also equipped with an automatic stop when the water has reached the right temperature.
