One question, when you talk about "strip head fire" you say that the intensity of the flame is controlled according to the distance of the igniters; closer together = lower intensity; further apart = greater intensity. But then in "Flankig fire" you comment that if the igniters are further apart, the intensity is lower and if they are closer together, the intensity is higher. Just the opposite. Could you explain the reason? Thank you
