Bunsen burner 288 valve

Find the needle valve. This is at the base of the burner. Turn it fully clockwise (inward) to stop the flow of gas completely. If your burner doesn t have a needle valve, it s a traditional Bunsen burner and the gas flow has to be regulated at the bench stopcock (Fig. 58). This can be dangerous, especially if you have to reach over your apparatus and burner to turn off the gas. Try to get a different model. 

In this section we consider the combustion of premixed gaseous fuel and air mixtures. Consider first the laboratory Bunsen burner, shown in Figure 10-1 1. Natural gas from the gas supply system enters the bottom of the burner, where it is mixed with air, with flow rates adjusted by the gas valve and holes in the bottom of the burner, where air is sucked in by natural convection. The premixed gases travel up the barrel of the burner (a tubular reactor), and, if flows are suitably adjusted and a match has been used to ignite the mixture, a stable flame forms at the top of the tube. 

A T-tube in the connection between the top of the condenser and the water aspirator is attached to a Bunsen burner. The needle valve of the burner serves as a bleed control valve, regulating the amount of air drawn through the reaction mixture. 

Bunsen, Robert W. von( 1811-1899). A Ger chemist noted for gasometric and photometric researches and for various inventions, such as burner, valve, cell, clamp funnel eudiometer. The first theory of the burning process of black powder was estabilished by him and simultaneously by a Russian chemist, L. Shishkoff. Bunsen lost the sight of his right eye due to the expln of cacodyl Cyanide, which he discovered together with other derivs of cacodyi... 

Before connecting the Bunsen burner to the gas source, examine the burner and compare it to Fig. 1.1. Be sure to locate the gas control valve and the air vents and see how they work. 

Needle valves on both Fisher and Bunsen burners are threaded right-handed. These valves are in reverse angles during use that is, you observe the valves from the top. This orientation may confuse some people. Just remember that in use, you close a needle valve by rotating it CW, and open the valve by rotating it CCW. 

The flame of a Bunsen burner is due to the combustion of natural gas, methane, in air. A Bunsen burner has independent control mechanisms for the flow of both gas and air. Examine your Bunsen burner and identify these controls. The gas control is usually a small knob that opens and closes a valve near the base of the burner. If your burner does not have such a knob, then you will have to control the flow using the valve on the benchtop. The air control consists of a mechanism whereby air is introduced into the barrel of the burner and mixed with the gas before the gas is burned. 

The fraction collector probably will have a bleeding valve on it. If it does not, then the bottom of a Bunsen burner or any natural gas burner can be iriserted in the line.

Two common types of laboratory burners are pictured in Figure 2.22. The classic Bunsen burner, named after its inventor, is shown in Figure 2.22a. The needle valve at the bottom of the burner serves as a fine adjustment of the gas flow, and turning the barrel of the burner regulates the air flow adjustment of gas and air flow provides control of the flame. In the microbumer in Figure 2.22b, the air flow is adjusted at the baffle at the bottom of the burner, and the gas flow is adjusted at the gas valve on the laboratory bench.
