Title: Appliance Performance And Changes In Gas Composition
Author: Kenneth Kelton
Source: American Gas Association 1978
Year Published: 1978
Abstract: The principal use of gas is as a fuel, a source of heat. To qualify as a satisfactory fuel and to provide trouble-free service, it must have a number of important burning properties, as follows: 1. Flames must liberate heat at a fast enough rate to efficiently transfer the heat of the flame into the substance being heated. 2. Flames must not lift or blow from the burner ports. They must readily ignite and travel quickly from port to port, 3. Flames must not flash back. They must be stable under various degrees of turndown. Ignition and extinction must not be accompanied by undue noise. 4. Flames must not burn with yellow tips, unless specifically designed for such operation. 5. Flames must not be hazardous in normal use and must not give off carbon monoxide.
