Difference between Firefighting and Flashover

Firefighting vs. Flashover

Firefighting is a profession aimed at controlling and extinguishing fire. A flashover is the near-simultaneous ignition of most of the directly exposed combustible material in an enclosed area.

Similarities between Firefighting and Flashover

Firefighting and Flashover have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Backdraft, Combustibility and flammability, Firefighter, Smoke, Thermal radiation, Ventilation (firefighting).

Backdraft

A backdraft (North American English) or backdraught (British English) or smoke explosion is the abrupt burning of superheated gases in a fire caused when oxygen rapidly enters a hot, oxygen-depleted environment; for example, when a window or door to an enclosed space is opened or broken.

Combustibility and flammability

A combustible material is a material that can burn (i.e., sustain a flame) in air under certain conditions.

Firefighter

A firefighter (or fire fighter) is a first responder trained in firefighting, primarily to control and extinguish fires that threaten life and property, as well as to rescue persons from confinement or dangerous situations.

Smoke

Smoke is a suspension of airborne particulates and gases emitted when a material undergoes combustion or pyrolysis, together with the quantity of air that is entrained or otherwise mixed into the mass.

Thermal radiation

Thermal radiation is electromagnetic radiation emitted by the thermal motion of particles in matter.

Ventilation (firefighting)

Ventilation is a part of structural firefighting tactics, and involves the expulsion of heat and smoke from a burning building, permitting the firefighters to more easily and safely find trapped individuals and attack the fire.
