Summary
The fire triangle (left) and the fire tetrahedron (right), with the extinguishing mechanism that acts on each element. Based on Grant (2002), pp. 4-152 to 4-153 and Iqbal and Salley (2004), p. 1-5.
Original vector illustration for Extinguishing mechanisms, level 2 Intermediate.
- Source basis: Grant (2002), p. 4-152 (triangle; removing fuel, smothering, quenching; halons break the chain reaction) and p. 4-153 (Figure 4-6.4, tetrahedron of fire: redraw, do not copy); Iqbal and Salley (2004), p. 1-5 and p. F-29
- Alt text: Fire triangle of heat, oxygen and fuel with cooling, smothering and fuel removal; tetrahedron adding the chain reaction and chemical inhibition.
