Fire Convection

Fire Convection is a heat transfer process in fire dynamics whereby thermal energy is transported through the bulk movement of heated gases and fluids, distinguishing it from conduction and radiation as the primary mechanism for vertical and lateral fire spread in an enclosure or environment.
