ISRO Electrical Engineering (EE) 2014 - Question 39

All ISRO Electrical Engineering (EE) papers | ISRO Electrical Engineering (EE) 2014

Out of the following methods of heating the one which is independent of supply frequency is

  • A. electric arc heating
  • B. induction heating
  • C. electric resistance
  • D. dielectric heating

Answer: C. electric resistance

Explanation: Electric resistance heating depends purely on Joule heating (I²R), which is independent of supply frequency (works identically on DC or AC). Dielectric and induction heating depend on frequency.
