- a flame is a chemical reaction between two or more chemicals that produces heat and light and other chemicals products of combustion for a constant flame to be maintained then there must be a method of renewing the supply of the two or more chemicalsusually convection a typical example of a flame is a candlethis is usually a rod of wax with a central wick the wick is ignited heat from the flame at the wick melts the wax the now liquid wax is absorbed by the wick and through capillary action the wax fuel is a fed to the flamehe rod has a small potential on it and when the flame touches it a small current flows from the rod through the flame to ground this current is detected and uses to prove the flame a flame acts as a diode but i don t recall the direction of electron flow and that effect isn t used in this application

- The Olympic flame is a symbol of the Olympic Games. Commemorating the theft of fire from the Greek god Zeus by Prometheus, its origins lie in ancient Greece, where a fire was kept burning throughout the celebration of the ancient Olympics. The 2012 Summer Olympics flame in London was carried by Sir Steve Redgrave to a group of young British athletes. 2  The group of seven, nominated by British Olympic champions, each lit a single tiny flame on the ground, igniting 204 petals, one for each competing nation or territory during the Parade of Nations.

Flame detector A flame detector is a sensor designed to detect and respond to the presence of a flame or fire. Responses to a detected flame depend on the installation, but can include sounding an alarm, deactivating a fuel line (such as a propane or a natural gas line), and activating a fire suppression system.

20 Things You Didn't Know About... Fire 1 Fire is an event, not a thing. Heating wood or other fuel releases volatile vapors that can rapidly combust with oxygen in the air; the resulting incandescent bloom of gas further heats the fuel, releasing more vapors and perpetuating the cycle. 2 Most of the fuels we use derive their energy from trapped solar rays. In photosynthesis, sunlight and heat make chemical energy (in the form of wood or fossil fuel); fire uses chemical energy to produce light and heat. 3 So a bonfire is basically a tree running in reverse. 4 Assuming stable fuel, heat, and oxygen levels, a typical house fire will double in size every minute.

Fire The glow of a flame is complex. Black-body radiation is emitted from soot, gas, and fuel particles, though the soot particles are too small to behave like perfect blackbodies. There is also photon emission by de-excited atoms and molecules in the gases.

Ember A bonfire in rural Australia, with a large number of embers being blown by the wind. An ember is a glowing, hot coal made of greatly heated wood, coal, or other carbon-based material that remain after, or sometimes precede, a fire. Embers can glow very hot, sometimes as hot as the fire which created them. They radiate a substantial amount of heat long after the fire has been extinguished, and if not taken care of properly can rekindle a fire that is thought to be completely extinguished and can pose a fire hazard.

- Combustion is a chemical process in which a substance reacts rapidly with oxygen and gives off heat. The original substance is called the fuel, and the source of oxygen is called the oxidizer. The fuel can be a solid, liquid, or gas, although for airplane propulsion the fuel is usually a liquid.
