The Transition and Spread of a Chaparral Crown Fire: Insights from Laboratory Scale Wind Tunnel Experiments

Figure 7

Time evolution of crown flame height in experiments with CBH = 0.7 m under wind conditions. (a) No wind. (b) = 1 m/s. Initial time, t = 0, is set as the time at the transition to the crown layer for each experiment. Experiments C1 and F3 are representative experiments for each experimental configuration.
