I thought you were the chemistry guy???
Something about the fuel absorbing heat? I failed chemistry in high school...
I just know if you want something hotter, you usually add more oxygen (cutting torches for example, acetylene by itself doesn't do much in the atmosphere, then it's mixed with oxygen in the torch, but you add the extra oxygen with the trigger for cutting and look out).
