This study aims to increase the efficiency of an electric kettle with a power rating of 200 W by mounting the heating elements on the sidewall of the kettle. The heating area of the kettle is increased to improve the heat transfer rate and reduce the heating time. The results show that the modified design with the heating elements mounted on the sidewall of the kettle has a higher heat transfer coefficient and lower heating time compared to the traditional design with the heating elements mounted at the bottom. The findings of this study could be useful for improving the energy efficiency of electric kettles and reducing their operating costs. The objective of the kettle is to minimize the time needed to heat about same amount of water as compared to the electric kettle available at market. To reduce electric consumption, we are extracting original heating coil through market-bought electric kettle and replacing it with new heating elements (Mica) but at better location. This new location of Mica is in such a way that the area of cross section for heat transfer is increased, compared to the original kettle.
