A procedure for experimental determination of forest fire parameters

  • Published:
Combustion, Explosion and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

A method for partial simulation of high and low forest fires, which ensures reproducibility of experimental measurements of forest fire characteristics, is suggested. A set of procedures and devices for experimental measurement of physical and chemical characteristics of forest fires is presented.
