Candles Heat Flame at Ryder Walker blog

Candles Heat Flame. Only the 4% of the candle's heat. The temperature is hottest at the base of the flame (at the tip of the candle wick) and decreases as you move further away. When a candle burns, the flame heats the nearby air and starts to rise. The flame of a candle emits a modest amount of radiant and convective heat, which can provide some warmth in a confined space. When you light a candle, the heat of the flame melts the wax surrounding the wick. You can make a pretty good estimate about the temperature of a candle flame based on its color: The heat of the flame produces an updraught of air that draws the flame into its familiar shape. The average candle flame generates between 80 to 100 watts of heat. As this warm air moves up, cooler air and oxygen rush in at the bottom of the flame to replace it. Heat from the flame travels in three directions at once by processes called conduction, convection, and radiation. Why a candle flame always points up. The melted wax vaporizes through a combustion reaction, where hydrocarbons interact. The shape of the flame. In zero gravity there is no ‘up’ and a flame forms a sphere. In a candle flame a quarter of the energy created, is released as heat, which radiates in many directions.
