Predicting Flow in Firebrand Pile using Pore Network Model
Firebrand pile ignition of adjacent materials requires an in-depth understanding of heat transfer and flow profile within the firebrand pile. Modeling the firebrand pile as a fibrous porous medium, this study identified a porosity-permeability correlation that accurately describes the transport …

Quantifying Burning, Heat Transfer, and Material Ignition of Smoldering Firebrand Piles
… by which fires can spread in the WUI are firebrands, airborne embers capable of acting as ignition sources carried in the airstream. Many studies have been conducted on the generation and transport of firebrands, but limited work has been conducted to quantify the heat transfer of …

Factors Affecting Heat Transfer from Firebrands and Firebrand Piles and the Ignition of Building Materials
Firebrands, small pieces of burning vegetation or debris generated by fires, are one of the primary ways wildfires ignite structures. Due to their small size, firebrands can be carried several kilometers by high winds before landing on combustible surfaces such as decks or roofs and potentially …
