We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi Ren -- Thanks for these suggestions.  I have been monitoring a maximum Temp variable, which does take a while to steady out (as do the average Temp and total energy variables) -- see below.  For this current run, I'll continue to allow these to stabilize some more, although the current variation (~2K) is much less than the difference from expected temperature profile (~100 K).  

Thanks for the suggestion on the radiation model; that was something I was going to ask you about.  For this fairly high temp flame it should be significant though probably not accounting for the whole existing discrepency.  I'll be in touch once I've tried that.
