Emission spectroscopy of an acetylene flame

[QUOTE="Nidum, post: 5462111, member: 563818"] That is not what I would expect to happen . Increasing Oxygen flow relative to a fixed Acetylene flow just causes flame to burn cleaner and more intensely until such time as flame becomes unstable and either blows out or you get lighting back into the burner tube and supply hoses . Possibilities are that : Acetylene is getting carbonised inside the hot tip zone of the burner tube . Metal from the burner tube is being vaporised . Lighting back is severe and bits of the seal rings and supply hoses are burning . Please note that there are some serious dangers in doing this experiment . If not already fitted I suggest that you install spark and lighting back prevention devices before proceeding further . [/QUOTE]
