Assignment:
Forum - Ignition
Ignition is the process of initiating self-sustained combustion. Once ignition occurs, heat transfer becomes important in the growth and spread of a fire.
Once you complete the Week 3 readings, write a post to achieve the following:
1. Briefly discuss what it takes for ignition to occur in a solid, liquid, and gas.
2. Define, compare and contrast the different modes of heat transfer.
3. Provide one example of each mode of heat transfer and discuss why it is a fitting example for that mode.
