As the water reduces while heated in the pot, the quotient/ratio of heat-energy vs heated element changes, so the water will evaporate at an accelerated pace as its volume reduces at the same supplied heat level.
The only ways to slow the acceleration is to turn the heat back or put a lid on ...
... or cool off the heated element by adding cold water.
