The manual states in
<URL:http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/beams#setting-automatic-beam-behavior>

in the very first paragraph:

    When automatic beaming is enabled, the placement of automatic beams
    is determined by three context properties: baseMoment,
    beatStructure, and beamExceptions. The default values of these
    variables may be overridden as described below, or alternatively the
    default values themselves may be changed as explained in Time
    signature.

If you follow the link on "Time Signature" and scroll down a bit, you
arrive at

    Alternatively, the default values of all these time-signature-based
    variables, including baseMoment and beamExceptions, can be set
    together. The values can be set independently for several different
    time signatures. The new values take effect when a subsequent \time
    command with the same value of the time signature is executed:

and of course, the stuff is explained there quite thoroughly.
