Forest fires in Japan, which produce severe damages to valuable natural environment, are mostly caused by human activities. Due to the recent field leisure boom, opportunities to use fire and to smoke cigarette in the forests are increasing. The cigarette-related fire ranks high among factors responsible for forest fires every year. However, it is often pointed out whether the lighted-cigarettes discarded in the forests can really initiate fires, judging from the limited heat of a cigarette. For forest fire mitigation purposes, it is important to examine how such cigarettes ignite dried-leaves and initiate forest fires. The objective of this study is to examine the conditions under which dried-leaves can be ignited into flames by lighted-cigarettes. The probabilities of either flaming or only smoldering of leaves due to a simulated cigarette, heated with a miniature electric heater, were examined to investigate the detailed ignition mechanism of the dried-leaves. The critical heating energy at the flaming was compared with the thermal energy for a lighted-cigarette, based on this probability.
