Abstract
Fireballs occurring on ignition of accidentally released fuel present a major danger because of emission of strong heat radiation. Assessment of the fireball parameters is important for fire safety and risk analysis. In this paper a numerical model for the burning of a methane cloud released into the atmosphere is presented. The internal structure of the fireball arising upon ignition of the release is revealed and the main stages of burning are discussed.
