Simulation of Coupled Fire/Atmosphere Interaction with the MesoNH-ForeFire Models

Figure 3

FLAT (a) Horizontal section (x/y) at Z = 10 m, fire lines after 120 seconds for the coupled (red) and noncoupled (grey) simulations. Arrows denote the wind vectors at ground level for the coupled case. (b) Cross-section (x/z) of the coupled case at Y = 160 m, shading represents concentration of the injected passive tracer. (c) 3d wind field and passive tracer concentration isocontours.
