How do you choose your fire attack strategy? 🔥 Hit & Move or 🌊 Flow & Move? In this thermal rebound demonstration, firefighters see heat transfer in real time within the flow path—then compare how different suppression techniques truly perform: • Penciling • Short-burst cooling • Straight stream (5-second upside-down U pattern) • Straight stream ceiling Z-pattern (extended application) • Blade pattern ceiling application These side-by-side demonstrations drive home a critical lesson: When oper

Watch the video and try and guess where the base of the fire is located. Then watch as the fire goes Vent limited and note the changes as the front door is opened. #controltheopenings Video Credit- NIST Fire Research https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAGcTZ7Uc1o | SBSK | Facebook

Wind-driven fire conditions dramatically increase risk. This footage shows 30 mph winds and their impact on fire behavior. 🌬️ Flow path acceleration 🔥 Rapid fire spread ⚠️ Increased exposure risk 💬 What indicator tells you the incident has become wind-driven to the extent that fire attack is adjusted? 🎥 Credit: unknown #FireEducation #FireBehavior #FlowPath #flashpointequipment | Flashpoint Equipment

The thermal threat of an open flow path. The TIC can indicate temperatures but does not account for the increased threat associated with the moving fire gases (the heat flux). For that, you need to understand what it is you are viewing. Great clip from WMFS OPS TRAINING.
