A meeker burner is like a Bunsen burner in the fact that it uses propane as a fuel source, but there are many differences. A meeker burner burns hotter then a Bunsen burner and it also has a grid over the flame that causes the flame and heat to vibrate as the propane burns.
A Bunsen burner is a type of equipment used in a laboratory that releases one adjustable gas flame. It is used for combustion, heating, and sterilization.
Limited oxygen intake in a lit Bunsen burner will emit a luminous, or yellow, flame. This type of flame is not usually used in the laboratory.
The yellow flame is considered a safe flame. If you are using the Bunsen to heat you would open the air vent so the flame turns blue, try heat on a yellow flame and it'll end up covered in soot.
To change the flame of a Bunsen burner you must open or close the air valve, usually this is done by rotating the barrel.

Blue or heating flame.
The temperature of a Bunsen burner is regulated by gas and airflow. The gas is controlled by a flow valve and the air is controlled by a screw mechanism on the collar. Different type of nozzles can control the flame's shape. The Bunsen burner was invented in 1855 by Robert Wilhelm Bunsen (1811-1899).

The burner was invented in 1854; Robert Bunsen was born in 1811. This type of burner was designed by Bunsen and constructed by Peter Desaga.
if you are talking about what flame to use on a Bunsen burner than the yellow flame is to make sure that everyone knows that there is a flame but the blue flame (less visible) is used as the hotter flame and the better one.
