Gajesh Tripathi Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Two stove 'A' and 'B' were used by different person. 'A' produce yellow flame and 'B' produce blue flame. Which burner is needed to clean and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypress Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) The yellow flame. Yellow light is an indicator that the temperature is low which implies incomplete energy conversion, incomplete combustion or way too much air intake. Given that burners are physically constrained not to run lean, it is a safe assumption to conclude it is overly rich due to plugging of some sort. Clean the yellow one.

mississippichem Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 The ideal bunsen burner flame should look like the one pictured on the left. Two distinct cones, both blue but one really bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
