yes depending on the moister content in the wood.in alive wood the air temp would have to be over 700 degrees celsius.but the drier the wood the less the temp needed
Hot dry air alone is unlikely to cause wood to catch fire. However, if the temperature is high enough and there is an ignition source present, such as a spark or flame, the hot dry air can contribute to the wood catching fire more easily due to its reduced moisture content.
Wood ignites at varying temperatures. Anywhere from 300 to 460 oC. The temperature of the fire depends on the condition and density of the wood. The wood burns at around 600 - 710 oC (900 - 1200 oF)
Fire is not a material thing like air, water, soil, etc. It is chemical reactions happening so fast and so violently that one can see the "upheaval", to put it that way. Fire as such can thus not have mass or denseness or whatever -- only the material things that are transformed in the process have mass and denseness. One can therefore not answer the question. It is like comparing a quagga with a quark. -- Mieliestronk
A hot and dry air mass is typically associated with a continental tropical air mass. These air masses form over hot, arid regions and are characterized by high temperatures and low humidity levels.
Hot air expands, and if in an enclosed space, will cause high pressure. If not enclosed, the hot air will "spread out". As a result, you would have less hot air in a given space than cold air filling an identical space. It is that question of density which makes hot air rise.
yes, if the wood is dry and the air is hot enough
Hot dry air alone is unlikely to cause wood to catch fire. However, if the temperature is high enough and there is an ignition source present, such as a spark or flame, the hot dry air can contribute to the wood catching fire more easily due to its reduced moisture content.
Hot enough to burn wood.
It's technically possible, if a bit unlikely. Pellet stoves burn extremely hot, and the heated air would tend to dry out wood placed near them, making the wood more prone to catching fire.
It can get hot enough to catch fire.It can get hot enough to catch fire.
dry wood is easily caught on fire. When wood is wet it cant catch fire. That's why when you make a camp fire you want dry wood. It lights easier and burns better.
well, hot air balloons are made from nylons because so it does not burn or catch on fire with the flames
No dirt can not catch on fire. But it can get really hot and burn.
Almost as hot as me.
With a wood fire, wood gets hot. The wood turns to a gas. Oxygen from the air mixes with the gas from the wood and they create combustion. When water is added, it cools down the wood. It also turns to steam blocking oxygen from the air from getting to the wood. So water does two things. It makes the wood so it will not get hot enough to turn to gas. It stops oxygen from getting to the wood. With an electrical fire, the source of the fire is the electric current. It causes the heat. Pouring water on it will not stop the electric current and stop the heat. It will simply give the electricity more places to go. The first thing to do in case of an electric fire is turn off the electricity.
yes if there is too much fire it can get too hot
A wood fire can reach temperatures of up to 1,100 degrees Celsius (2,012 degrees Fahrenheit).
