THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF THE COMBUSTION PROCESS

Problem statement. The analysis of fire hazard shows that fires cause significant material damage to the economy around world, significantly complicating environmental situation, endangering human life. Thus, in Ukraine there are more than 50 thousand every year, which people die, and exceeds hundreds millions hryvnias, incidental losses 20 times greater. This alarming statistics is largely due increased buildings structures erected operated by changing production technology, increasing number storeys building density, traditional material-intensive technologies new advanced with effective materials from wood, plastics polymers, metal, etc. Many these highly sensitive high temperatures fire. wooden plastic under action can burn, releasing amounts heat toxic substances. Metal rapidly heated critical temperatures, leads a loss their load-bearing capacity. purpose article. Research regularities at high-temperature heating wood burning decomposition wood. Conclusions. Fire protection necessary part preventive measures aimed ensuring safety resistance structures. main task structures’ reduce flammability transfer them.
