  2. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    Oxy-propane torches are usually used for cutting up scrap to save money, as LPG is far cheaper joule for joule than acetylene, although propane does not produce acetylene's very neat cut profile. Propane also finds a place in production, for cutting very large sections. Oxy-acetylene can cut only low- to medium-carbon steels and wrought iron ...

  3. Propane torch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane_torch

    The balanced equation shows to use 1 mole of propane for every 5 moles of oxygen. With air/fuel torches, since air contains about 21% oxygen, a very large ratio of air to fuel must be used to obtain the maximum flame temperature with air. If the propane does not receive enough oxygen, some of the carbon from the propane is left unburned.

  4. MAPP gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAPP_gas

    A set of MAPP and oxygen cylinders is used for oxy-fuel welding and cutting.. MAPP gas was a trademarked name, belonging to The Linde Group, a division of the former global chemical giant Union Carbide, for a fuel gas based on a stabilized mixture of methylacetylene (propyne), propadiene and propane.

  5. Oxy-fuel combustion process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_combustion_process

    Almost all of the nitrogen is removed from input air, yielding a stream that is approximately 95% oxygen. [3] Firing with pure oxygen would result in too high a flame temperature, so the mixture is diluted by mixing with recycled flue gas, or staged combustion. The recycled flue gas can also be used to carry fuel into the boiler and ensure ...

  6. Oxyhydrogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxyhydrogen

    Oxyhydrogen is a mixture of hydrogen (H 2) and oxygen (O 2) gases. This gaseous mixture is used for torches to process refractory materials and was the first [1] gaseous mixture used for welding. Theoretically, a ratio of 2:1 hydrogen:oxygen is enough to achieve maximum efficiency; in practice a ratio 4:1 or 5:1 is needed to avoid an oxidizing ...

  7. Flashback arrestor - Wikipedia

    Depending on the application they are also often used at the torch side as an additional safety device. Flashback arrestors help prevent: Further gas flow in the case of pressure shocks. The entry of air or oxygen into the distribution line or single cylinders. Flashbacks which are the rapid propagation of a flame down the hose.
