Why a gauze is often placed over a burning flame for heating an object?

To prevent flame impingement on the vessel being heated, which could damage the vessel. A flame cannot pass through a gauze (or screen). as a proof you could set up a bunsen burner beneath a wire gauze. Turn the gas on and ignite the gas above the gauze. you will notice the flame will stay above the gauze. If you ignite the flame beneath the gauze and lower the gauze into the flame, the flame will not pass above the gauze. Yet, if you light both below and above the gauze you will have flame on both sides. Indicating that flames impinging on the gauze do not burn the gas completely and the gas will pass through the gauze.
