摘要
Experiments have been carried out to investigate the effect of slope on the rate of upward spread of flame over a combustible solid. There is a clear difference between the mechanisms of spread for thin and thick fuels. With the latter, a change in mechanism is found to occur at an inclination of 15-20-degrees. This is greatly enhanced if entrainment of air from the sides is restricted.
