What Is A FireWhat Is A Fire ??
Simply fire is a chemical Simply fire is a chemical reaction which involves rapid reaction which involves rapid oxidation or burningoxidation or burning of a of a combustible materialcombustible material..
In the past, we learned that In the past, we learned that three elements, fuel, heat, and three elements, fuel, heat, and oxygenoxygen were necessary for fire were necessary for fire to start and continue burning, to start and continue burning, hence the fire hence the fire triangle concepttriangle concept..

Fire TetrahedronFire Tetrahedron
In recent years In recent years this concept has this concept has been expanded been expanded to include a to include a fourth elementfourth element, , that of that of chemical chemical reaction,reaction, thus thus creating the fire creating the fire tetrahedron.tetrahedron.
