Function of Dishwasher Heating Elements Heating

The heat generated by the heating element is transferred to the surrounding water in the dishwasher’s tub. This occurs through direct contact and convection. The dishwasher’s thermostat or temperature sensor monitors the water temperature to ensure it reaches the desired level.

Drying

In condensation drying, the heating element warms the air inside. When the air comes into contact with the cooler surfaces of the dishwasher walls/door, the moisture condenses into droplets. The condensed water drains away/wipes off by the drying action of the heating element and air circulation.
