Combustion brings together articles on the chemical reactions and fuel properties that underpin fire. Topics include combustion, pyrolysis, flaming and smouldering, together with flammability and flame extinction.
The category also covers the quantities used to describe fuel–air mixtures and energy release, including heat of combustion, stoichiometry, equivalence ratio and oxygen consumption. These articles connect chemical processes with the measurements and calculations used in fire analysis, from the behaviour of individual fuels to the production of heat and combustion products.
