Atmospheric conditions significantly impact the stability and performance of heating elements. In oxidizing atmospheres (e.g., air), oxidation can degrade the heating element over time. In reducing atmospheres (e.g., hydrogen), chemical reactions may alter the material’s resistance, affecting heating efficiency. In contrast, inert atmospheres (e.g., nitrogen or argon) maintain stable conditions, helping to preserve the efficiency and extend the lifespan of the heating elements. Therefore, selecting the appropriate heating element requires considering the specific atmospheric environment to ensure optimal performance.
