The lesson text for this topic is being written. The learning outcomes above, and any artefacts below, show what it will cover.

Interactive artefact

Flame rectification

AC applied across the flame is rectified to a DC current that proves the flame.

Will demonstrate

  • AC voltage applied across the flame
  • The flame rectifying it to a small DC current
  • How the control board proves the flame

Planned. This interactive will appear here when it's built.
