Abstract

This paper discusses issues related to the modelling of forest fire extinguishing. The mathematical formulation of the interaction of a forest fire with a water barrier is presented. The evolution of fire and vegetation structure influence on the processes of evaporation is demonstrated. It was concluded that use of water barrier in the presence of a dense layer of low vegetation is ineffective in stopping fire spread.
