Rollover is when a fire or flame front rolls across the ceiling away from the fire. This occurs when fuel and air reach their flammability which mostly occurs several feet away from main body of the fire. This happens because there isn’t much oxygen above the thermal column of the fire searches for air further away and the combination with the heat, fuel, air it will create a rollover

    that has the same result and the amount of the substance doesn’t affect it. For example, in distillation, they would need to figure out what substances boils at this certain degree. For the sludge lab, they will measure boiling point, density, flammability, and more. They need to measure characteristic properties because only one substance has that characteristic property. When Abshir and Shelstie first got the liquid, they took a look at it. It is

Later, the NTSB claimed that two worn down wires must have sparked in the fuel tank, exploding the whole plane (Cole 36). The NTSB also that the flammability in the central wing fuel tank, due to the hazardous mixture of air and fuel, was too high (TWA Flight 800). Based on the various tests and investigations of the crash, mechanical failure has remained one of the most accepted theories of the flight’s
