The inner blue flame, also known as the "safety flame," is used to heat chemicals in a Bunsen burner. This flame is the hottest and most efficient part of the flame, providing a precise and controlled heat source for various laboratory processes.
Why does the airhole have to be closed when lighting a Bunsen burner?
Because if the air hole was wide open, the flame will be blue, which is going to be really hot so you have to leave it at a safety yellow flame which is when the air hole is closed when lit.

Beside the flame the heat you experience is that heat being radiated as light - if you hold your finger too close or leave it too long, you will get harmed! Beside the flame the air is cool as cool air is being sucked into the flame. However above the flame the hot gases produced by the combustion of the wax in the flame are rising upward by convection. These hot gasses will heat you skin by conduction and you will be burned very quickly.
