There is nothing inside the container except gas: Gaseous water.

Hi Jed,
What you wrote is true when there is liquid water and steam together in
a container - the combination cannot be heated to a temperature higher
than 100 deg C without raising the pressure. However once all the
liquid has turned to gas there is no longer any limit to what
temperature

The kettle is still filled with water vapor -- dry steam -- and the
pressure inside is still 1 atmosphere, give or take a few millibars.
What temperature do you suppose the steam inside the kettle is at?
Could this be -- gasp! -- an example of

After a while, all the water boils to steam.
The kettle is still filled with water vapor, of course! But
Although this discussion thread is really a moot point after it was pointed out
that there are 5
PLCs which are controlling the power to the resistive heaters, there's one
thing I'd like to point
out...

Jed, it's a container, with all the walls at several hundred degrees C or
pV = nRT. If the temperature increases, there must be a corresponding increase
in the pressure or the volume (or both). In this tea kettle case, the volume of
the steam increases right out the top of the kettle. But the temperature can
increase above 100.
