An overview of the coupled atmosphere-wildland fire model WRF-Fire

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We describe the coupled atmosphere-wildfire model WRF-Fire, which is distributed as a part of WRF. The fire module is based on a fire-spread model, implemented by the level-set method. In each time step, the fire module takes the wind as input and returns the latent and sensible heat fluxes. We report on the software architecture and features of the software.
