ELECTRIC HEATER USING BLADES

WATER HEATER USING BALDES
I have made a water heater using blades.Now a days in every houses the water heater plays a crucial role. But that heater costs more which a nomal people cannot afford. so i came with a idea of making a heater with low cost using normal items like blades, toothpicks , etc.Water heaters using blades are an innovative approach to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of traditional water heating systems. The primary goal of incorporating blades into the water heater design is to optimize heat transfer and reduce energy consumption. These systems use mechanical blades or fins to create water circulation, ensuring better uniformity in temperature distribution and faster heating.
In conventional water heaters, a heating element (like an electric coil or gas burner) heats water in a tank. However, without adequate circulation, the water around the heating element gets heated faster than the water farther from it, leading to inefficiency. The use of blades or fins helps mitigate this issue by enhancing water movement, ensuring that hot water is evenly distributed throughout the tank.
This DIY project is perfect for those who enjoy working with electronics,love hands on projrcts, simply want a functional solution to stay warm during the colder times.with a few basic tools and materials, you will be able to craft a heater that fits your lifestyle--- small,efficient,and customizable.
In this instructables, we'll walk through the process of designing aand assembling the heater. you'll learn how to heat the water by the electrlysis process. by the end you will have your very own heater using available things in home.
weather you're a beginner or experienced with electronics,this project is approachable and rewarding.plus it's great way to gain hands on experience with key concepts like temeperature regulation and power management.
Supplies

MATERIALS NEEDED :
- Blades
- 2 wires with plug
- glass
- tooth picks
- fevi quick
- water
Brief Concepts and Explanation of Water Heaters Using Blades:
- Heat Transfer:
- Convection: The process where warmer water rises and cooler water sinks, creating a flow that helps distribute heat more evenly throughout the tank.
- Conduction: Heat from the heating element is directly transferred to the water. The blades help ensure that this heat is evenly spread by promoting better water circulation.
- Mechanical Circulation:
- Blades or fins are used to physically move the water within the tank, ensuring that water surrounding the heating element circulates efficiently. This prevents hot spots and promotes even heating.
- Turbulence:
- Blades create turbulence, disrupting the smooth flow of water (laminar flow), which helps mix the hot and cold water more effectively, improving heat transfer and reducing energy loss.
- Energy Efficiency:
- By improving circulation and heat distribution, blades help the water heat faster and more evenly, leading to reduced energy consumption and faster heating times compared to conventional systems.
In essence, water heaters with blades use mechanical movement to enhance heat distribution, improve efficiency, and reduce energy consumption.
Collect the Equipments at One Place

The materials should be kept at one place to make the project easier.
Seperating of Conducting Plates(blades) Using Tooth Picks.

In this step we are going to seperate the conducting blades. because one blade acts as positive and negative terminals.
so we do not allow the terminals to touch each other. and this process also similar to electrolysis process.when ever a current passes throught the conducter it emits heat.
here toothpicks are used because we should seperate it with the insulating material.normally in every home the cheap and best insulator present in hour in home is wood . so that we used the tooth picks which are avaialable at low cost.
Connecting Wire to the Conducting Plates

connect the wire positive to the blade 1 and connect the negative terminal to the blade 2. so that the current is passed through the wire to the conducting plates. here we used the plug with wire connector which has the pvc insulation for the preventive measures. so that we can easily give the supply to the coil or conductor.
Take a Glass and Pour the Water

take the water which have to be heated and we should take it in the glass beacuse to avoid the shock . and use the soft water or non electrolytic water beacuse if any electrolytes are present it will lead to scaling. scaling means formation of substance on the electrodes which lead to the loss of heat.
Put Our Heater in the Glass and Switch on the Supply

Now put the heater in the glass and switch on the supply and wait for 5 to 10 min until the water gets heated and water will starts heating and begin to evaporate.
Result :

At last our water heater is easily made with high efficiency and low cost.Water heaters using blades enhance the efficiency of traditional water heating systems by improving the heat distribution and circulation of water. The main concepts involved—heat transfer, mechanical circulation, energy efficiency, turbulence, and flow dynamics—ensure that the water heats more quickly, efficiently, and evenly, reducing energy consumption and improving overall performance.

Precautions :
1.while using the container better to use glass container in order to avoid the electric shock.
2.use the wires with good insulation
3.use the non mineralized water
4.for better results use copper or nichrome bars to produce more heat.
