Why a wick is not used in gas burners ? |
|
Answer» Wax in the candle melts when it is lighted by a match and a little wax forms vapour. This vapour combines with oxygen in the air to form flame. The heat of the flame melts more of the wax from the top of the candle. The melted liquid wax move upward through the thread. It also changes to vapour when it reaches the top the wick and burns w’ h the flame. Wick is not required in gas burners because LPG has low ignition temperature so it is easily convert into vapour state. |
