Abstract
The theoretical study of the problems of forest fire initiation and spread were carried out in this paper. Mathematical model of forest fire was based on an analysis of experimental data and using concept and methods from reactive media mechanics. The research was based on numerical solution of three-dimensional Reynolds equations for boundary layer of atmosphere and forest vegetation. The boundary-value problem is solved numerically using the method of splitting according to physical processes.
