What are the three types of acetylene welding flames?
Mixing Acetylene and Oxygen in the correct proportions produces an extremely hot flame. Using just enough Oxygen so that the Acetylene is almost completely consumed in the flame is called a Neutral Flame. In most welding and cutting applications you would utilize this flame. Reducing the amount of Oxygen produces a Carburizing Flame. It is yellowish and not as hot as a Neutral Flame, but, is used in certain situations. Welding Aluminum is one. Increasing the Oxygen produces an Oxidizing Flame. It produces a flame that is pointed, colder, and louder than a Neutral Flame. It wastes fuel and isn't as efficient as a Neutral Flame.
What types of flame are obtained in oxy-acetylene gas welding?
When the correct amount of Oxygen is mixed with the Acetylene a NEUTRAL flame is produced. Less than that amount produces a CARBURIZING flame. Too much Oxygen creates an OXIDIZING flame. Most welding/cutting is done with a NEUTRAL flame but all flame adjustments have their purpose.
What gas burns hotter than propane?
Acetylene burns hotter than propane, reaching higher temperatures when used for welding and cutting applications. Its high temperature flame is suitable for metal cutting and welding processes that require intense heat.
How does oxyacetylene welding work?
Acetylene is a flamable gas but while burning alone will not produce enough heat. Therefore, bringing in oxegen into the party raises the temperature of the flame. After the welder retains the proper ratio of Acetylene and oxegen, which is 1:1, the welder can start to heat the work piece til he/she forms a weld puddle and can use a filler rod to fuse two or more pieces of like metals together. Much more than just this but I believe I have the jest of it.

What are the Gauge pressures when oxy welding?
oxygen...25psi acetylene....7-10psi. Never go higher than 15psi with acetelyne. it will become highly volitile
Why welders use welding torch instead of flame of firewood?
An oxy-acetylene welding torch is used for welding rather than a flame from firewood because it is possible to concentrate the energy and heat at one small precise location, to move it readily, to generate a lot of heat in one small area, to control the amount of heat precisely, and to control the amount of oxygen in the flame and therefore the oxidation occurring at the weld.
Why is the oxyacetylene process used sparingly in today's industry?
when you are in the field you dont always have access to acetylene, also it is less effective than arc welding, and its more dangerousAnother reason: the acetylene itself. Fire inspectors, insurance agents and safety professionals hate a gas that dangerous.

Is the flame of a match hotter than the flame of a liter?
No, a liter does however burn faster due to the fact that it is burning butane rather than wood.
Why LPG should not be used for Gas Cutting?
I can't see a reason why it shouldn't be used for cutting; it cuts better than acetylene does. What it should NOT be used for is gas welding, because it doesn't get hot enough.
