Physics and heat transfer brings together the physical principles and material properties used throughout fire safety engineering. It includes conduction, convection and thermal radiation, along with heat flux, emissivity and the relationships used to describe energy transfer.
Articles also cover buoyancy, gas behaviour, thermal conductivity, heat capacity and thermal inertia. The category connects the movement of energy and gases with the heating of fuels, building elements and surrounding spaces. These principles form a basis for analysing ignition, fire growth, smoke movement and the response of materials to fire exposure.
