Candle Burn Rate Definition

The Candle Burn Rate (CBR) is the rate at which a candle burns, measured in ounces per hour (oz/hr). It is calculated by dividing the change in weight of the candle by the total burn time. This metric is useful for understanding how long a candle will last and for comparing the efficiency of different candles.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ CBR = \frac{4}{8} = 0.5 \text{ oz/hr} \]

The Candle Burn Rate is 0.5 oz/hr.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ CBR = \frac{6}{12} = 0.5 \text{ oz/hr} \]

The Candle Burn Rate is 0.5 oz/hr.
