   Dec 1, 2023 · A surface fire spread is essentially the sequential ignition of unburnt fuels by fuel preheating stemming from the heat transfer of the burning flame front, and the rate of spread (ROS) is the local horizontal speed at which the boundary of the combustion zone moves over unburnt fuels.

   Sep 17, 2019 · The smouldering-to-flaming (StF) transition is a quick initiation of homogeneous gas-phase ignition preceded by smouldering combustion, and is considered a threat because the following sudden increase in spread rate, power, and hazard. StF transition needs sufficient oxygen supply, heat generation, and pyrolysis gases.

   What is the difference between Flaming and smouldering?

   • Although flaming is characterisitically different from smouldering; smouldering is the heterogeneous reaction of solid fuel with an oxidiser, whereas flaming is the homogeneous reaction of gaseous fuel with an oxidiser, which releases more heat (Table 1); the two fires have their genesis from the same process, namely, pyrolysis (Equation 1).

   What are the transitions between surface fire and the abovementioned behaviors?

   • This section discusses the transitions between surface fire and the abovementioned behaviors, which depict a picture of the fire growth: a surface fire is initiated from smoldering, and then undergoes changes in burning behaviors under specific fire contexts, leading to significantly increased burning intensities and spread areas. 5.1.

   How can self-sustained flaming be established?

   • In other words, self-sustained flaming could be established if the heat feedback from flaming is sufficient to increase the smouldering rate at a required level of gaseous fuel production. Another way to interpret this cycle is that gaseous fuel is provided by in-depth pyrolysis of fuel.

   • In Southeast Asia, this flaming-to-smouldering transition is common, as it is frequently used in agricultural practices to clean the land and return nutrients for use in plantations—this practice is typically referred to as slash and burn (Figure 1).
