Heat From A Burning Candle at Dylan Yang blog

Heat From A Burning Candle. If you want to heat something with a candle, hold it near the tip. In zero gravity there is no ‘up’ and a flame forms a sphere. Most of the flame's heat is delivered toward the tip, where a large volume of gas is always burning and convection is sweeping hot gases constantly upwards. The heat from the wick melts the wax which gets absorbed in the wick and then. In a burning candle, wax is drawn up the wick by capillary action and evaporates, so what is burned is a gas. Candle flames can reach extremely high heat levels of up to 1,830°f (1,000°c). The candle uses the wax as fuel to keep the flame burning, and when the fuel (wax) has completely evaporated, it will no longer burn. The hottest part is the flame, which can reach temperatures of up to 1,400 ºf. The temperature of a burning candle varies based on which part you're touching. The heat of the flame produces an updraught of air that draws the flame into its familiar shape. To determine how hot a candle actually burns, hold it. The wax evaporates into the atmosphere as the reaction to heat and flame turns it from a solid, to a liquid, to a gas. This would be chemical energy that is converted to heat.
