Heat is Energy
Sources of heat are:
Sun
Atomic
Volcanoes
Fires
The Sun is the major source of heat.
Heat from the sun drives our weather.
With a continuous supply of heat (furnished by the combustion process itself), the ignition of additional fuel will continue as long as there is enough oxygen present. Thus it is obvious that these three elements must be present and satisfactorily combined before combustion can occur and continue. For the sake of simplicity we call this the �Fire Triangle.�
Remove any one of the three sides or elements and the fire will cease to burn. Weaken any one, and the fire will weaken. Increase any one or more of the elements, and the fire will increase in intensity. Armed with this knowledge the fire fighter or the prescribed burner can do much to manage a fire.
