A multiphase formulation for fire propagation in heterogeneous combustible media
TL;DR: In this article, a general formulation based on a weighting average procedure is developed for describing the fire-induced behavior of a multiphase, reactive and radiative medium, which can be used as the basic one for later studies, especially in the framework of wildland fires.
Journal ArticleDOI
Firespread through fuel beds: Modeling of wind-aided fires and induced hydrodynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the propagation of wind-aided line fires through fuel beds is simulated by using a multiphase approach, where a gas phase flows through N solid phases which constitute an idealized reproduction of the heterogeneous combustible medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling transport and combustion of firebrands from burning trees
TL;DR: In this paper, a three-dimensional physics-based model is used to precompute the steady-state gas flow and thermal fields induced by a crown fire into which firebrands will be injected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Width effects on the early stage of upward flame spread over PMMA slabs: Experimental observations
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of sample width on early upward flame spread were investigated, when typically the heat release rate per unit width (Q ˙ ′ ) is less than 30 kW/m.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of experiments are performed to determine the local burning rate of vertically oriented burning slabs of PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)) under steady-state conditions.
