Why does an electric kettle make noise when heated. Choosing the Quietest Electric Kettle: Useful Instructions for Buyers Sound change when boiling water
Show content articles
Recently, manufacturers of electric kettles have been implementing the idea of silent household appliances. They are trying to make the most advanced silent electric kettle. Users have access to unique models that, when boiling, do not boil, do not make sounds and do not click.
The reason for the noisy operation of the electric kettle
The heating element of the device is located at the bottom, so the water is heated in layers. When it reaches a boil, bubbles form in the tank, which are pushed to the top. When exposed to cold water, they burst. It is the bubbling that is perceived as noise.
Boiling water in a kettle is perceived as noise
Important! The sounds of the kettle immediately after switching on occur when scale builds up on the heater and indicate a malfunction.
General criteria for choosing electric kettles
To choose a quiet kitchen electric kettle among a huge range, you should familiarize yourself with the device selection criteria:

Why does the kettle make more noise before boiling?
Solution:
Before boiling, in the hottest areas of the kettle, for example near the walls, steam bubbles begin to form. However, as a result of contact with colder masses of water, the temperature of the bubble walls may not be sufficient to create in the bubbles atmospheric pressure. Therefore, the newly formed bubbles collapse, which causes a lot of noise.
Have you ever thought about what makes sounds when the kettle boils?
If you think carefully, you can guess.
Why does the kettle make noise when heated?
And it’s best to immediately go and look into the kettle - we will see rising air bubbles, which at the end of their path burst and make a sound.
Where do these bubbles come from?
Let's say that we have an ordinary electric kettle that heats water using a current that heats the spirals from the bottom of the kettle. Therefore, the temperature at the bottom of the kettle is very high, which is higher than at the top of the vessel. Because of this, bubbles form at the bottom, which form during boiling. After the water gets very hot, the bubbles separate from the bottom of the kettle and float to the top, where they shrink until they burst.
Later we don't hear the popping because the temperature in the kettle is so high. The kettle is boiling and all we hear is gurgling, as these bubbles get very large from heating and become much larger.
Maybe, of course, this is due to the contact of hot with cold, and when the water is very hot, the sound becomes less. But we still hear the gurgling!
By the way, we should not forget that sounds fade in the volume of the room, and that our ear perceives low and high frequencies differently, and because of this, the noise becomes less noticeable when heated.
In conclusion, I’ll say: “What difference does it make how it gurgles there, the main thing is that the tea is tasty!”

Faktrum warns: despite the fact that this is very important to know, this is not taught in school. When water boils, its composition changes, which is completely normal: volatile components turn into steam and evaporate. Thus, boiled water is safe to drink.
But when the water boils again, everything changes for the worse:
Boiled water is completely tasteless. If it is boiled several times, it becomes very, very tasteless. Some may argue that raw water also has no taste. Not at all. Do a little experiment.
At regular intervals, drink tap water, filtered water, boiled once and boiled many times. All of these liquids will taste different.
Life is in full swing
When you drink the last version (boiled many times), an unpleasant aftertaste will remain in your mouth, some kind of metallic taste.
In addition, if you decide to boil water again, then pay attention to how much time has passed since the last boiling process. If a sufficiently long time has passed, then it is better to drain the water and pour fresh water into the kettle. The fact is that various harmful microorganisms develop faster in stagnant water, and more dust and other debris gets into it.
So here are some helpful tips:
- for boiling each time pour fresh water;
- do not boil the liquid again and do not add fresh water to its remains;
- before boiling the water, let it stand for several hours so that heavy substances settle to the bottom;
- after pouring boiling water into a thermos (for preparing a medicinal collection, for example), close it with a cork after a few minutes, not immediately.

Why does the kettle with water make noise just before boiling and the noise drops sharply at the moment of boiling? What processes create such noise? Don't ask for a guess... I don't know her, I can only guess.
At the heated bottom of the kettle, water turns into steam, bubbles with steam rise up. But before reaching the surface, the vapor cools down, the bubbles collapse.
Hence the noise.
The whole process can be seen in a glass teapot.

But before reaching the surface, the vapor cools down, the bubbles collapse. Hence the noise. So why the noise? They collapse - they don't burst. Moreover, they collapse as evenly as they appear. By the way, when water is heated in a saucepan (without a lid), there is no such sound, but with your explanation, the sound should not disappear.
Maybe the hydrodynamic and acoustic characteristics of the kettle somehow affect 🙂
Gotta watch

09.03.2011, 11:38
in a saucepan (without a lid) there is no such sound. So it's all about the spout!
09.03.2011, 11:45
Collapsing - it's not bursting.
09.03.2011, 11:52
Clap your hands and think about where the noise comes from. When I press my hands, there is no noise (this corresponds to the reverse absorption of steam into water), and if there is, it is from escaping air escaping from my hands (and we don’t have escaping steam - the vapor pressure is not lower than the pressure of water on the walls of the bubble). So?
So it's all about the nose!
Why does the kettle make noise when turned on, then it stops, and then it makes noise until it boils?
Maybe ... what makes the spout whistle when the water is not boiling and what prevents the spout from whistling more when the steam is boiling? It seems that the process of vaporization is much simpler, but we don’t really know anything here either.
09.03.2011, 13:02
So why the noise? They collapse - they don't burst. Moreover, they collapse as evenly as they appear.
When collapsing, a short-term local change in pressure occurs - the essence is the same sound wave. This is not the only example - for the same reason, when an incandescent lamp is broken, the ringing is accompanied by a clearly audible pop. The uniformity of the appearance and bursting of bubbles is relative - some time passes between the collapses, the duration of these intervals is different, but it fits well into certain limits. The result is a real "white noise", the "voice" of chaos.
Clap your hands and think about where the noise comes from.
What does one hand clap sound like?
09.03.2011, 16:15
This is not the only example - for the same reason, when an incandescent lamp is broken, the ringing is accompanied by a clearly audible pop. Anton. Here the situation is different. The steam collects in a bubble and turns back into water sticking to more cold water. There is no overpressure at all. The ball bursts/collapses absolutely evenly over a relatively long time, comparable to the life time of the bubble.
09.03.2011, 20:09
There is no overpressure at all.
There is 🙂 Only not excessive, but vice versa - negative, since when the vapor condenses, the bubble turns out to be filled with nothing. It collapses, hence the sound.

I found an interesting article about boiling water: http://www.t-z-n.ru/prehme/int_boiling.html
10.03.2011, 01:43
Only not excessive, but vice versa - negative. So the process of dissolution of the bubble is continuous, where does a void without pressure suddenly form? That is the question.
11.03.2011, 13:51
The bubbles of steam travel from the hot bottom to the cold upper layers and become water, collapsing at high speed and forming sound waves. The noise will be both in the kettle and in the pan.
Moving to an area with more high pressure, the bubble cavitates, collapses, radiating a shock wave. "Cavitation" occurs as a result of a sharp decrease in pressure in the liquid. This is what destroys the surface of propeller pumps, hydraulic turbines. Thanks to "cavitation" in washing machines it turns out gentle washing and it is more convenient to clean antiques ..
11.03.2011, 14:45
The bubbles of steam travel from the hot bottom to the cold top layers and become water, collapsing at high speed and forming sound waves. Is there any confirmation? Noise will be in both the kettle and the pan. Do you have a shurpa in your cauldron before boiling?
11.03.2011, 14:48
Why does the kettle with water make noise just before boiling and the noise drops sharply at the moment of boiling?
And you yourself sit on the comforter ... also, probably silently, this will not work .... 🙂
But seriously, the electric kettle is noisy too.
I think that this is due to the heating of the spiral (heating element) and the rapid heating of the water near it. In the case of gas, the metal on the sides of the kettle heats up, and the droplets of steam and the film of water wetting the sides evaporate quickly (the effect is almost the same as if you drop water on the hot metal) ....
i.e. it is a local boiling of small water droplets. And when the water boils already throughout the volume, then it evaporates all evenly ...
11.03.2011, 15:23
Such peremptory arguments: Vapor bubbles travel from the hot bottom to the cold upper layers and become water, collapsing at high speed and forming sound waves. Is there any confirmation? Mathematical model? Noise will be both in the kettle and in the pan. Do you have a shurpa in the cauldron before boiling?
14.03.2011, 11:41
And who needs it? What is the question? Why is the kettle noisy? Is it necessary to model mathematically to explain why?
Try *** confirmation to do the following experiments:
1. Heat the kettle with different amount of water: from 200ml to 1.5L.
At the beginning of heating, the kettle does not make a sound for several seconds; then appears
and the noise grows, which, having reached its maximum, begins to subside and
replaced by the gurgling of boiling water.
The amount of water does not affect the intensity of the sound, but the more water,
the longer each of the noise periods (silence, rising and
fading noise, gurgling).
2. The same, but with the lid open.
The nature of the noise change is the same (silence, rising and
fading noise, gurgling), but: firstly, the noise became louder, and secondly, while
the same amount of water, the duration of the second stage increased.
The noise appears along with small bubbles on the kettle element, which,
breaking away from the heating element, they do not reach the surface of the water, but “dissolve” in it.
3. Place a hollow object (glass
bottle).
The strength of the sound will decrease, the nature of the noise will not change.
4. Clamp the kettle between two wooden blocks.
The result of the experiment coincides with the result of experiment No. 2.
Hypothesis 1.
When switched on, the heating element of the kettle
begins to intensively heat the lower layers of water, with
release of small vapor bubbles. steam bubbles
begin to rise and, having come into contact with not yet
heated mass of water, condense. As a result
instantaneous condensation occurs multiple "collapse" of small vapor bubbles,
which generates the vibration of water and, as a result,
noise. The increase in noise at the beginning of the experiments is explained
an increase in the number of bubbles - adjacent to
tenu the layer of water begins to warm up. Explanation
damping down is that the temperature of the water in the kettle
the process of condensation of steam in water also increases
slows down and the water begins to boil.
Confirmation of this hypothesis:
The appearance of noise along with bubbles on the heating element of the kettle;
Noise reduction when heating water in the kettle;
Noise reduction when installing an empty glass bottle on the heating element -
the area of contact of the heating element with water has decreased.
The body of the kettle cannot be considered a source of noise, because:
With the lid open, the kettle makes more noise, and the kettle clamped in the "vice"
no less noisy, i.e. The case also serves as sound insulation.
The final confirmation of the hypothesis will be the heating of water in that
the same kettle, but with a reduced power of the heating element.
Experiment with his ten.
Conclusions:
The amount of water in the kettle affects the rate of boiling: the more water,
the longer it takes to boil;
The closed lid keeps the heat in the kettle and the water boils faster;
The kettle makes less noise if water that has not yet cooled down is heated in it.
The water in the pan before boiling is noisy for me, but for you? 🙂
14.03.2011, 18:59
The water in the pan before boiling is noisy for me, and for you? I sometimes boil water in a cauldron and the cauldron does not make noise. And the kettle is noisy ... even with the lid open 🙂
Evgeniy Sklyarevskiy

I sometimes boil water in a cauldron and the cauldron does not make noise. And the kettle makes noise ... even with the lid open. And if you solder the spout to the cauldron? What are the predictions?
15.03.2011, 08:58
And if you solder the spout to the cauldron? What are the predictions? There will be no noise ... it's all about the temperature of the surface in contact with water. In a cauldron, it is lower, since the cast iron is thick, and in a tin pan it is higher, since the tin is thinner. I speak without mathematical model don't deal with bubbles 🙂
15.03.2011, 14:03
In a cauldron, it is lower, since the cast iron is thick, and in a tin pan it is higher, since the tin is thinner. But it seemed to me that the difference was in the surface area. The cast iron will warm up anyway, but the contact area of the cauldron is larger and "more voluminous" or something ... accordingly, the liquid heats up over a larger volume, and the difference in temperature between the lower and upper layers of water is smaller.
15.03.2011, 14:30
and "more voluminous" or something ... Maybe so. Due to the thick wall, heat is better redistributed from the bottom to the edges ... but then a large cauldron for pilaf would have to "make noise", but it also does not make noise.
15.03.2011, 17:09
What is noise for you? How many db? 🙂
What happens if the same water in a kettle is boiled under vacuum?
28.03.2011, 11:40
What happens if the same water in a kettle is boiled under vacuum? I have a gas burner - it does not burn in a vacuum.
Due to the absence of thoughts, something that is mistaken for wit gushes.
Noise occurs in conditions of high water temperature gradient. In thin-walled and electric kettles, this situation is typical, but not in a cauldron.
28.03.2011, 16:09
gushing something that is taken for wit Did they say something funny here?
Where? Noise occurs in conditions of high water temperature gradient. In thin-walled and electric kettles, this situation is typical, but not in a cauldron. I agree with this, but it would be better to clarify everything right away. For example, in a thin-walled frying pan (wok, for example) would sound appear?

For example, in a thin-walled frying pan (wok, for example) would sound appear? The answer is yes and no - depends on other physical parameters. For the sound to appear before boiling, you need a combination of:
1) thin and preferably flat bottom (for high heat transfer from the burner to the water);
2) a high wall of the vessel (and therefore a flat bottom), so that the water in the upper layers is heated only due to convection warm water, but not from the walls - for this reason, the kaza is not suitable - heat transfer comes from the walls of the cauldron and the sound does not appear.
3) A sufficient amount of water in the vessel so that the heating of the upper layers is significantly behind the lower ones.
Those. conclusion: not in every kettle and not always the water makes noise before boiling - the point here is not in the shape of the spout, but in the amount of water and the design of the kettle.

It shouldn't be your way, but it's noisy. Could it be cavitation?
vBulletin® v3.8.5, Copyright 2000-2018, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd. Translation that you can say:
Today we will talk about electric kettles, or rather about the speculations and misconceptions associated with them.
You can write your opinion in the comments.
Myth 1. The water in the kettle is saturated with harmful substances during boiling.
This is only true for the lowest quality products. If the body of the electric kettle is made of high quality material, there is no danger. The most environmentally friendly in this regard are glass and ceramics, which are inherently incapable of entering into chemical reactions. Moreover, contrary to popular belief, modern glass teapots are very durable and resistant to damage.
But their metal counterparts are more reliable than ceramic and glass electric kettles. Metal products are more durable, and high-quality stainless steel also does not emit any harmful components when heated (note: by the way, there are a lot of low-quality imported stainless steel on the cookware market now - manufacturers and managers do not think about consumer health - see our articles about dishes. But This applies to teapots less, because in them just water comes into contact with stainless steel, and not an acidic environment, as in pans).
As for plastic models, for their production, theoretically, only safe food-grade plastic should be used, the shelf life of which is about 3 years. In our opinion, metal and glass electric kettles are still preferable to plastic ones, because. plasticizers, though in small doses, but gradually pass into the water.
Why is the electric does the kettle start making noise as soon as scale appears in it?
And after the expiration of these 3 years, it is certainly better to replace the device with a new one. The store websites offer a wide range of electric kettles. different models, so if your product needs to be replaced, just go ahead and select a new suitable device.
Myth 2 (this is not a myth, but the truth - editor's note). Electric kettles can cause a fire
Modern kettles have a power of 2-2.5 kW and are designed for standard wiring, sometimes you can find 3 kW models that can only be used if the wiring is in perfect condition. The use of the latter type of product with insufficiently high-quality wiring can just cause a short circuit. The only thing worth noting is that a short circuit due to poor-quality wiring can occur when using any electrical appliance - not just a kettle. In any case, you should be careful with electric kettles.
Myth 3. In electric kettles with a “gold-plated” spiral, scale does not form.
“Gilding” on the spiral of the product is titanium nitride. This compound is resistant to a variety of chemical substances and protecting the spiral only from corrosion. Protection against scale is provided by the use of purified or spring water, as well as the purchase of kettles equipped with built-in filters. It is better not to buy teapots with a “gold-plated” spiral, as the “gold” gradually passes into the water you consume, and there is nothing good in that.
Myth 4. You can’t heat a small amount of water in an electric kettle.
If the device has an auto-off function when boiling and works without water, you can safely heat water for one cup in it. It is only necessary to ensure that the liquid completely covers the heating element.
Myth 5. Electric kettles are suitable for heating soup and boiling milk.
Which of the first users of electric kettles did not try to boil dumplings, sausages or heat soup in them? Remember the result? And also remember that the manual for any product says that nothing but water can be placed in it, since food particles can stick to the heating element, and the expanded liquid can squeeze out the device cover? Similarly, you should not use sparkling water to clean the kettle from scale. Our inquisitive minds have long found out that the same Coca-Cola or Sprite contain orthophosphoric and citric acids, which dissolve plaque. However, along with them, there are also dyes with sweeteners, which are easily eaten into the coating of the heating element and the inside of the instrument case.
The process of boiling water is always accompanied by noise. However, in some kettles it is quieter than in others louder. This may depend on many factors. Namely: on the type of heating element, the material from which the body is made, on the shape, on the build quality of the device, on the thickness of the bottom, on the power of the kettle, and possibly on some other features of a particular model. It is noticed that the plastic is a little (just a little bit), but still dampens the sound, but the metal does not; a flat heater (not to be confused with a hidden one) contributes more to the quiet operation of the device than a round one, and a powerful device heats water faster, but at the same time it makes more noise than a low-power one. However, it is not a fact that when buying a kettle, even taking into account all these factors, it will turn out to be silent.
There are no completely silent kettles in our stores yet. And to find a not very noisy model, the advice of those who already use this or that model will help. The information shared by lovers of home tea parties is always true (unlike advertisements in the store). After reviewing the user reviews left, I identified the five most “quiet” electric kettles. Here they are:
Braun WK 300(2011)
The model differs not only in quiet operation, but also in a number of positive characteristics. The device has a power of 2200 W, a plastic case, a closed coil. A fairly large volume of water (1.7 liters) boils in just five minutes. Reliable European quality, Beautiful design, comfortable handle. The model is equipped with a multi-stage security system.
The device switches off:
- when boiling water;
- with the lid open;
- in the absence of water;
- when removing the kettle from the base.
The kettle is equipped with a limescale filter that can be easily removed and washed.
Philips HD 4646- the best-selling model of this brand. Many users advise to buy, as they believe that for very little money you will get the perfect branded teapot. Reliable, simple, voluminous (1.5 liters), powerful (2400 W), boils quickly and without unnecessary noise.
- this small elegant kettle (only half a liter of water) and low power (only 600 W) will not annoy you with noise at all. It can be used both stationary and as a travel option. Two travel cups are included in the set. The light weight model is made of high quality plastic, has a closed helix, and is very convenient to use.
– this model is characterized by: volume 1.6 l, power 2200 W, closed heater (disk), removable scale filter. The body of the kettle is made of high quality stainless steel with a decorative enamel coating. Bright illumination of the water level scale complements original design. An excellent model for real aesthetes and the noise level will not embarrass anyone.
- Another model of a quiet miniature, but quite worthy electric kettle. Volume 0.600 l, power 700 W, closed spiral (disk), combined body made of metal and plastic. One of those copies with which you can travel.
The only device that can boil water almost silently is a thermopot. Compared to an electric kettle, a thermopot takes much longer to bring water to a boil. And with a very slow process of boiling and noise will be less. In addition, the thermal insulation (double walls), characteristic of thermopots, perfectly absorbs sound. But the problem is that many people need an electric kettle, and not a thermo pot with its slow boiling and subsequent temperature maintenance mode.

Why does the kettle make noise when it boils water, and the closer to boiling, the stronger, and when the water boils, much weaker? and got the best answer
Answer from Yury Melikaev[guru]
The cause of any sound is the mechanical vibrations of the medium. In a subcooled liquid, vapor bubbles do form on a hot surface, but they do not rise to the surface. As the bubble grows, it touches the "top" of a colder liquid, the vapor condenses and the bubble collapses. That is, the bubble "breathes" all the time. This causes the water to vibrate in the kettle. This process continues until the entire liquid is heated to the boiling point - the bubbles no longer collapse, but rise to the surface.
Answer from *Janelle*[guru]
Well, why .... Water then gurgles and boils, the molecules start from high temperature move faster, and that's why....
Answer from philipp petrov[guru]
it seems to me because before boiling, many small bubbles of steam make noise, and by the time of boiling they simply merge and large bubbles no longer make so much noise
Answer from Alexander Greshnev[guru]
Bubble boiling of water turns into film boiling.

THERE ARE TWO ANSWERS:
1. Microorganisms start yelling that they should not be cooked.
2. Vapor bubbles that form at the bottom of the kettle on microcracks or non-wettable droplets of fat rise to the surface and eventually burst and all the steam accumulated in them comes to the surface. There are a lot of such bubbles, so the noise is strong. When the kettle boils, the bubbles become larger, but their number is smaller, and the noise weakens. And in general, it’s better to find Ladsberg and read it. It looks like volume 1.
Answer from Alex[newbie]
And if the water boils away, it will stop making noise.
Answer from User deleted[master]
Noise is a mysterious and mysterious thing!
Answer from Vladimir[guru]
Noisy air. When water is heated, the solubility of gases in it greatly decreases, and the main amount of dissolved air is removed at a temperature close to the boiling point. My statement is easy to verify: pour carbonated mineral water into the kettle and heat it - much more carbon dioxide dissolves in water than air, and the effect of noise when heating soda is very clear.
Answer from Moby Dick[guru]
The noise that we hear when the kettle boils is, oddly enough, the sound of collapsing steam bubbles, which, rising up, cool. When the leader has already boiled, the process of collapse stops, and the sound changes its character dramatically.
Answer from Cor48[guru]
As for the collapse of steam bubbles, everything is correct, but the increase in sound is related to the size of these bubbles, the larger they are, the stronger the hydraulic shock when they collapse and, as a result, the louder the sound
Answer from Olga Abramova[newbie]
the kettle makes noise not for good, as they said before, it doesn’t always make noise.
Answer from Irina farrakhova[newbie]
The cause of any sound is the mechanical vibrations of the medium. In a subcooled liquid, vapor bubbles do form on a hot surface, but they do not rise to the surface. As the bubble grows, it touches the "top" of a colder liquid, the vapor condenses and the bubble collapses. That is, the bubble "breathes" all the time. This causes the water to vibrate in the kettle. This process continues until the entire liquid is heated to the boiling point - the bubbles no longer collapse, but rise to the surface.
