d.3. Auto Ignition Temperature
Auto Ignition Temperature (AIT) sering juga
disebut temperatur bisa menyala sendirinya, yaitu
temperature terendah dimana suatu zat bisa
menyala dengan sendirinya, tanpa adanya sumber
penyalaan dari luar.

Phases of Fire Burning
34
Three progressives stages of burning
35
Oxygen Rich Oxygen
Atmosphere Deficient
Atmosphere
36
Incipient or beginning phase
•Oxygen plentiful
•Temperature has not built up
to high peak
•Thermal updraft rises,
accumulates at highest point
•Breathing not difficult
•Fire extinguishments :
–Direct application of water
at base of fire.
•Ventilation :not a problem
•Little steam production
37
Free burning phase
•Fire has involved more fuel
•Oxygen supply is being depleted
• Heat accumulated at upper
areas
•Breathing difficult : Masks
recommended
•Fire extinguishments is reaching
the area of major involvement
•Ventilation : Not a definite need
•Good steam production
38
Smoldering phase
•Oxygen supply not equal to
demands of fire
•Temperature throughout
building is very high
• Normal breathing is not
possible
•Oxygen deficiency may cause
back-draft
•Fire extinguishments indirect
method
•Ventilation : A must
•Maximum steam production
from water fog

Smoldering phase

Modes of spread of fire
Conduction
It occurs only in solids i.e.
metallic objects.
Convection
It occurs both in liquids &
gases
Radiation
It is neither conduction nor
convection. These are heated
rays emanating from the hot
object. 41
Conduction •Heat energy is passed on
next
•The molecule vibrates
above its mean position
•Pass on heat energy by
colliding with their
neighbors
•The ability to conduct
heat varies between 42
Conduction
43
conduction 44
Convection • When a liquid or gas heated,
it expands
• It becomes less dense
• The lighter fluid arises being
displaced by colder and
therefore denser fluid
• In turn becomes heated and
so a circulation is set up
• Heat energy is carried
throughout the fluid by
actual movements of
molecules. 45
Fig: Fire Plume 46
Radiation • It does not involved
any contact between
bodies
• It is independent of
any material in the
intervening space
• These are the heated
rays, travels in
straight line in all
directions with same
intensity

51
Types of combustion…
iii. Deflagration - which
takes place with a
considerable rapidity,
evolving heat & light
iv. Explosion - is a very
rapid combustion with a
loud noise within an
extremely short time with
generation of very high
pressure & temperature.
52
Rate of Combustion
A rate of combustion or the spread of fire would
depends on :
•The area of solid/liquid in contact with air.
•The amount of heat generated to raise the
temperature of un-burnt portion.
•The ability of materials to conduct heat away.
•Atmospheric humidity.
•Wind velocity.
•Temperature.
•Atmospheric pressure.
53
CHEMICAL REACTIONS
EXOTHERMIC REACTION
When heat is liberated in chemical reaction is known as
Exothermic Reaction.
Ex :
N2+3H2=2NH3+ H(-24Kcal)
C+O2=CO2+ H (-94.5 K cal)
Bond
Heat Liberated Being Broken
54
CHEMICAL REACTIONS…
ENDOTHERMIC REACTION
When heat is absorbed from the reacting
substances is known as Endothermic Reaction.
Ex:
2C + H2 = C2H2 + H (54 Kcal)
3O2 2O3 + H (69 Kcal)
Bond
Heat Absorbed Being Formed
55
SPECIFIC SURFACE
It is the surface area in square centimeter per gram of
that solid substance.
Liquids & gases have no specific surface, these two
take the shape of container.
On the basis of specific surface and fire susceptibility,
all combustible solids classified into three :
»Tinder
»Kindling
»Bulk fuel
56
SPECIFIC SURFACE
Ex: Paper
TINDER :
Solids with specific surface of more
than 20 Sq. cm/gm.
Tinder can be ignited by match stick.
Ex: Card Board
KINDLING :
Solids with specific surface of 2 to
20 Sq.cm/gm.
Kindling requires a burning tinder for
ignition.
Ex: Wood Block BULK FUEL :
Solids with specific surface of 0.04 to 2
Sq. cm/gm.
Bulk Fuel requires burning Kindling for
ignition. 57
IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS
Density :
The Density of substance is its mass per
unit volume. Unit of Density(D) is Kg/m3
or gms/cm3
Ex:
Water - 1000 Kg/m3 or 1 gm/cm3
Mercury - 13.6 gm/cm3
