Firebrands are produced from combustion of both vegetative and structural fuels in large outdoor fires. It is well known that firebrand generation, transport, and ignition mechanisms result in rapid and potentially devastating fire spread processes in large outdoor fires. In this article, the basic mechanisms of firebrand generation, transport, and ignition are discussed with an emphasis on how fundamental combustion knowledge may play an important role in this complex problem.
飞火是由大型户外火灾中植被燃料和结构燃料的燃烧产生的。众所周知,飞火的产生、传播和点火机制会导致大型户外火灾中火灾迅速蔓延,并可能造成毁灭性后果。在本文中,我们将讨论飞火产生、传播和点火的基本机制,重点关注基础燃烧知识如何在这个复杂问题中发挥重要作用。
