In a fire cause analysis investigation, fire investigators have to prove in court, under intense cross-examination, that they found the right answer. To present successful evidence, the investigator writes in detail from the beginning of the investigation to the end. Every clue has to be logged, from evidence bags to test results, along with their theory about where the fire started and why

Our analysis did, however, reveal notable differences in fire behaviour between NMC and LFP batteries as capacity increases. At lower capacities, NMC batteries show relatively low maximum HRR, but
Besides, the mass loss rate is used to assess the HRR of LFP batteries, which can be calculated as below: (1) Q t = χΔH m ̇ t where the χ is the burning efficiency of battery fires, ΔH is the combustion heat of batteries, and m ̇ t represents the mass loss rate as a function of time. HRR curve of the 50 % SOC battery fire away from the sidewall at 15 cm, is depicted based on Eq.
Thermal runaway of the LIBs can lead to leakage of combustible gases and ejection of combustible materials from the battery, which can cause violent combustion and explosion. 20–22 In a fire scene, LIBs can be considered an ''ignition source'' capable of causing combustible materials around it to burn and become a cause of fires in homes, stores and

As lithium batteries have been used for car navigation systems and as the second battery for black boxes, lithium battery-related car fires have often occurred. In the case a lithium battery is the fire origin, a fire investigation technique has not been established to determine if a battery ignites or whether the lithium battery is damaged by fire. This study

Cathode Decomposition: At high temperatures, the cathode material (for example LiCoO₂) is decomposing and releasing oxygen which is driving the fire. To be very safe in the use of batteries and prevent such fires, there is a need to understand what led to such fires. Here are top 8 reasons why lithium-ion batteries catch fires. 1. Overcharging
However, when the battery are exposed to abuse conditions, the temperature may exceed the normal operating range, and the active materials will decompose or react with each other, finally leading into thermal runaway. The electrochemical reaction process inside the LIB at high temperature is very complicated.
The essential probability and impact of LIB failure events were not assessed in a fully quantitative manner due to limited incident statistics. The analysis of risk of LIB fire is still at early stages.
It could be concluded that cell 5# was ignited with the impact of the flame of cell 6#.
