Propane flame

04/14/2008 8:15 AM

i have a problem in having enough oxygene that will support my propane flame to be continue for a quiet while, thats why i always have water produce at the end of the flame line,

i was told it could be because of shortage of Oxygen,

other says it could be because you don't sustain the enough pressure,

wonder if any body have any idea about that and what should i add to the line to correct this problem,

thank you

Free expansion → Cooling→Below dew point→Water

Water is a natural by product of combustion. Ventilation to help move the water vapor before it condenses on the cool surfaces and/or increase these surface temperatures so it does not condense.
