SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the heating power of the Meker Burner, specifically for simulating the heating of a copper disc. Participants suggest using the burner to heat water in a pot as a method to estimate its heat output. However, the original poster, Martin, seeks a specific value for the heating power or heat flux of the propane Meker Burner with a diameter of 38mm before acquiring the burner.
