- Identifiers
- enclosed ventilation-controlled fire; re-ignition following the vent/door opening after an under-ventilated fire has died down; using doors and pavement lights during firefighting and rescue; percentage of hatch opening; Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS); conditions before the vent was opened; effect of the wind conditions; influence of fire load and delay times before opening the hatch on the re-ignition process; influence of door and vent opening on the re-ignition process; effect of leakages on the re-ignition process
