Short title	Foam blankets a pool, while running fuel and a pressurised spray lack a continuous cover.
Image title	Left: a pool fire in a tray covered by a continuous foam blanket; only small vapour arrows remain above it. Centre: fuel running down an inclined surface, still burning, with foam patches that leave gaps (incomplete coverage). Right: a pressurised spray fire from a pipe, with no continuous horizontal surface to cover. Inset: in a beaker, water sinks below a lighter hydrocarbon fuel, which floats on top and keeps burning.
