Most likely so the glass will not crack as it expands as a result of being heated by a hot solution being poured into it.
Heating the funnel prior to filtering hot acetanilide solution helps to prevent the solution from cooling too rapidly upon contact with the cold funnel, which could cause crystallization and clogging of the funnel. This ensures smoother filtration and prevents potential blockages or inefficiencies in the filtration process.
I will assume this has to do with recrystallisation.
When performing recrystallisation, it is important to keep all of the equipment, glassware and solutions hot to avoid the goal product to crystallise while it is being filtered. If this occurs product will be lost.
If this does happen, rinsing with heated solvent may redissolve the crystallised product from the filter paper and recover it. The extra solvent will make recrystallisation more difficult later though.

It reduces premature crystralization in the funnel which would block it up.
I'm unable to display diagrams in this format. However, in the experiment to prepare hydrochloric acid (HCl) using a funnel, you would typically mix hydrochloric acid (HCl) and water in a beaker, place a funnel over another container, and pour the solution through the funnel to separate any impurities or undissolved solids. The pure HCl solution would then pass through the funnel into the container below, leaving impurities behind.
You would add the chloroform to the separating funnel and allow it to separate into distinct layers with the aqueous layer at the bottom. Gently shake the funnel to enhance separation and then carefully open the stopcock to drain off the lower aqueous layer containing water. The chloroform layer can then be collected separately.

Add water to the mixture to dissolve the copper sulfate. Filter the mixture to separate the sand from the copper sulfate solution. Evaporate the water from the solution to recover the copper sulfate.
Usually, it's used to separate a precipitate from the liquid in the solution. The filter paper is folded into quarters and placed in the funnel. The solution is then poured onto the filter paper, where the liquid filters through and the precipitate stays on the filter paper. The precipitate can then be saved or discarded, depending on which part of the solution you want.
Ensuring the stem of the funnel touches the inside surface of the collecting beaker helps to prevent splashing or spillage of the liquid being filtered. It also helps to direct the filtered liquid smoothly into the beaker, minimizing the risk of contamination or loss of sample during the filtration process.
only suspended particles are filtered
The stem of a funnel needs to be firmly set in the container that you wish the filtered item be stored in. The stem is the smaller part of the funnel usually located at the bottom of the funnel.
it's done to minimize the mixing of air into the filtered solution. By touching the stem to the collecting beaker, the solution flows into the beaker smoothly rather than splashing into it.
Also known as a Buchner or vacuum flask, the flask uses vacuum to filter samples. A vacuum hose is attached to the hose barb and the funnel is placed on top. As the hose creates a vacuum, the sample is filtered through the funnel.

Wet filter paper adheres better to the funnel.
by using separating funnel
If you have a multipurpose funnel and some tissue paper, layer two or three peices and carefully place them inside the funnel as one sheet. Put the funnel over a glass and add the solution into the funnel (not too much) and wait for results. Mail me back if the results were positive.
