Abstract

The purpose of this study is to reveal the flame spreading mechanism of tsunami fire. But the mechanism of tsunami fire is so complex that we could not assess qualitatively. So the basic research on tsunami fire is needed. As a first step, we did flame spread experiment on only fuel and liquid fuel/water layer under static. When fuel temperature is 20 ~ 45 ℃, flame spreading rate over only liquid fuel is faster than liquid fuel/water layer's at same fuel temperature. By these result, we did scaling analysis to estimate flame spreading rate at various conditions.
