Question

why do we feel more heat when we keep one hand above the candle flame than keeping on side of the candle flame​

Answer 1

$\mathfrak{\huge{\green{\underline{\underline{Answer :}}}}}$

The hot air is less dense (lighter) than the cooler air around it, so it naturally goes upward, making the area above the flame hotter than the area to the sides of it.

On the side of the fire you’re only getting the radiant heat from the burn. On the top you are getting the convective hot air and actual burn chemicals (smoke, etc.) rising with the less dense air.
