Abstract

This investigation is based on the practical experience reported in the case history, research papers and reported cases of automobile burning at the police and fire stations. Since the fire outbreak in automobiles creates harmful effects to the automobile owner and as well as to other people, it is necessary to detect the fire in the automobile and develop some device for the instant control of the fire.
