  2. Burn rate (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burn_rate_(chemistry)

    A substance is characterized by a burn rate vs. pressure chart and burn rate vs temperature chart. Higher burn rate than the speed of sound in the material (usually several km/s): "detonation" A few meters per second: "deflagration" A few centimeters per second: "burn" or "smolder" 0.01 mm/s to 100 mm/s: "decomposing rapidly" to characterise it.

  3. Candle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candle

    A room lit by the glow of many candles. Based on measurements of a taper-type, paraffin wax candle, a modern candle typically burns at a steady rate of about 0.1 g/min, releasing heat at roughly 80 W. [42] The light produced is about 13 lumens, for a luminous efficacy of about 0.16 lumens per watt (luminous efficacy of a source) – almost a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taper_burn_mark

    Taper burn marks are deep flame shaped scorch marks often found on the timber beams of early modern houses. [1] They were originally thought to have been accidental scorches from a taper candle , but research suggests that most marks may have been made deliberately, as there is clear patterning of the activity.

    red lead with silicon, burning at intermediate rate; lead(IV) oxide with silicon, burning at 5–6 cm/s; potassium permanganate with antimony, very slow; Manganese Delay Composition: manganese with lead chromate and barium chromate (lead chromate is the principal oxidizer, barium chromate acts as burning rate modifier, the more of it the slower ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candle_clock

    Similar candles were used in Japan until the early 10th century. You Jiangu's device consisted of six candles made from 72 pennyweights (24 grains each), of wax, each being 12 inches high, of uniform thickness, and divided into 12 sections each of one inch. Each candle burned away completely in four hours, making each marking 20 minutes.

  7. Candlepower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candlepower

    At the time the UK established candlepower as a unit, the French standard of light was based on the illumination from a Carcel burner, which defined the illumination that emanates from a lamp burning pure colza oil (obtained from the seed of the plant Brassica campestris) at a defined rate. Ten standard candles equaled about one Carcel burner.

  8. Thermal burn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_burn

    A thermal burn is a type of burn resulting from making contact with heated objects, such as boiling water, steam, hot cooking oil, fire, and hot objects. Scalds are the most common type of thermal burn suffered by children, but for adults thermal burns are most commonly caused by fire. [ 2 ]

  9. Tealight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tealight

    A tealight (also tea-light, tea light, tea candle, or informally tea lite, t-lite or t-candle) is a candle in a thin metal or plastic cup so that the candle can liquefy completely while lit. They are typically small, circular, usually wider than their height, [ 1 ] and inexpensive.
