FIELD: fire-fighting, particularly fire extinguishment in closed and opened space with the use of dispersed water.
SUBSTANCE: method involves using thin-walled sealed shells filled with water. The shells are delivered to fire site to extinguish fire. Water contained in the shells is dispersed by heat energy generated by fire. Shell dimensions are selected to provide shell explosions under the action of vapor as shells move through fire to be suppressed.
EFFECT: increased distance of water delivery and dispersed water efficiency, extended volume of fire extinguishment zone and decreased extinguishment time.
