What part of the fire triangle is affected when firefighters remove all the trees that lay in the path of a fire?
Removing trees from a forest fire is called a "fire break" or "fire line" and it provides a separation of the unburned fuel from the fire. Thus, a fire break affects the "fuel" leg of the fire triangle by denying fuel to the fire.
What happens when part of the fire triangle is removed?
When a part of the fire triangle—composed of heat, fuel, and oxygen—is removed, a fire can no longer sustain itself. For instance, eliminating oxygen (by smothering the fire) can extinguish it, while removing heat can prevent ignition. Without fuel, there is nothing for the fire to consume, effectively stopping its growth. Each component is essential for combustion, so removing any one of them interrupts the fire's chemical reaction.
