Just asking

So which fireball equation do we use? Cause I've seen a few variations used and accepted. Some of them have given 3 times the result of another, sometimes it's two, and other times they're close. Maybe I'm just getting them confused with each other?

1.

M = Mass in Kg

C = Temperature of fire

M*(1012*C + 1046)

2.

R = Radius

17.4813*10^(-3)*R^2.5

3.

Y = Megatons

R = Radius In Km

Y^0.4 = R

4.

M = Mass in Kg

C = Temperature of fire

M x C x 919 (919 is the heat capacity of air)

5.

418kj = 32 grams of O2

g = Grams

x kj = g
 
1. Idk

2. Idk

3. That's talking about the fireball caused by an explosion

4. That's calculating the energy required to change the temperature of the amount of air. Can be used in actual fires or fireballs in explosions, or basically any calc related to temperature.

5. That's talking about actual fires.
 
The second one in the OP seems to also be a temperature-changing formula, similar to the fourth one. Still not sure about the first.
