Abstract

Firebrands are produced from combustion of both vegetative and structural fuels 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.
