El asado y el fuego

Nada, de otro lado donde no tienen la menor idea de que es un asado, pero dos definiciones utiles

Newspaper and kindling are also accelerants. Especially if you build the combustion reaction into a chimney with lots of fresh air. Just get the temperature up to 2,000 F (or so) and the exothermic reaction of coal will become self sustaining. The minute those volatile gases start cooking out of the coal, you have a winner !
The trick to combustion is turning the combustant into a pseudo vapor. Add in plenty of oxidizer (air) and the gas – gas reaction quickly becomes self- sustaining.

BTW, one of my thermo profs at TAMU had a favorite question, “what are the three T’s of combustion ?”
The answer: Time, Temperature, and Turbulence. The more you can add of any of these (preferably all), the better your combustion process will be.

Nada nuevo, pero bien sucinto y bien escrito
