some time users introduce chilled water into the "steam jacket" for fast cooling as well.
What Is the advantage of Steam-Jacketed Kettle?
Since steam encapsulates most of the kettle, it may cook more evenly than a traditional stock pot because it offers a more uniform cooking surface. It also tends to warm contents more quickly than a traditional pan, heated primarily from the bottom.
A steam-jacketed kettle can be tilting or stationary. A kettle that is meant for floor use is usually stationary and may have legs that can be adjusted to different heights so that cooks can reach the pot.

How Are Steam Jacketed Kettles Heated?
As their name implies, steam-jacketed kettles harness steam energy to heat food. Conduction heat transfer allows the heat to move from the kettle's metal structure to its contents. Molecules begin moving more rapidly and bump into each other, continuously shifting their energy to neighboring particles.
Most steam-jacketed kettle produced by "Ranking Machinery" consist of an inner kettle, an outer jacket and the heating element (steam, hot water, hot oil) connecting port to an exterior power source like steam generator, hot water boiler, or oil boiler. The jacket covers about two-thirds of the kettle body, with some space in between the kettle and jacket wall. Inside that sealed space, steam can flow and heat the kettle evenly on all sides.
