In the early 19th century, coal mines were death traps due to "firedamp" (methane gas) explosions. Then came Sir Humphry Davy.
In this video, we break down the incredible science of the Davy Safety Lamp. Discover how a simple layer of wire gauze can cool a flame's heat enough to prevent it from igniting the surrounding gas.
In this video, we cover:
The physics of heat dissipation and wire gauze.
Why methane explosions were so common in 1815.
A step-by-step demonstration of the lamp in action.
The legacy of mining safety technology.
