What is the temperature of the open flame?

Open flame (pronounced mínghuǒ) is a Chinese word, which means a fire lit by a convex lens reflecting the sun during ancient sacrifice or divination.

The shape of the flame

The flame burns in one direction, starting from the lower part and burning most violently to the top. The direction of flame is actually the distribution direction of paraffin gas. Inside the candle flame is high-temperature paraffin gas, and outside low-temperature air will squeeze the high-temperature paraffin gas. Due to the action of gravity, this squeezing force is from bottom to top, so the flame burns upward.

Classification of fire sources

One is an open flame. Such as stoves, matches, candles, etc.

The second is high-temperature objects. Such as lighted cigarette butts, incandescent lamps, automobile exhaust pipes, heating pipes, etc.

The third is electrothermal energy. Such as heat generated by various electric heating appliances, heat generated by electric arc, electric spark, electrostatic spark and lightning discharge.

The fourth is chemical heat energy. Thermal energy generated by chemical changes. Such as the heat generated by combustion, the spontaneous combustion of some organic substances, and the decomposition of compounds to release heat.

Can I use an induction cooker for Ming hot pot?

Open flame pot is not recommended for induction cooker. There are many kinds of pots for naked fire, such as iron pot, stainless steel pot, aluminum pot, copper pot and so on. Iron pots can be used in induction cookers, because they are magnetic, and other pots without magnetism cannot be used in induction cookers. The bottom of the pot dedicated to open flame is thick and mostly arc-shaped, which can't fit the induction cooker well and the use effect is not very good. Compared with the special pot for induction cooker, it has low efficiency and high power consumption.
