迎面火与主地表火相互作用的实验研究

为了研究地表火卷吸作用的范围和迎面火与主火相互作用的机理 ,在大空间室内实验室进行了实验研究 .在该实验室实验可以避免环境风和环境温度变化的影响 .研究结果表明 :(1)在火头前方有明显的逆风区存在 .在逆风区下部的逆风风速要比上部的大 ,而且当高度达到某一数值时 ,逆风就不明显了 ;(2 )迎面火与主火之间即使相距较远也存在相互作用 .当它们相互接近到一定程度时 ,彼此相互吸引 .这使得火的蔓延速度显著升高 .对于火线火强度为 16 0kW·m-1地表火来说 ,蔓延速度增加2 7% .

Experimental Studies of Interactions Between Backfires and Coming Surface Fires

In order to study the convection limits of surface fires and interactions between backfires and main fires,several experiments are conducted in a large space indoor laboratory: in which the effects of ambient wind speeds and changing temperatures can be avoided.The research shows that:(1) there is a convection field in front of coming fires in which the wind speed direction is toward the fire.In the convection area,the lower part has higher wind speed and when the height is taller than a certain value the convection wind speed is not significant;(2) the backfire and the main fire interact with each other even though they are far apart.When they come near each other to a certain distance,they begin to draw each other.This increases their rates of spread toward each other significantly.For surface fires with a fire line intensity of 160?kW\5m -1 ,their rate of spread increases by 27%.
