Abstract
The main problems associated with the calculation of heat radiation of fireballs formed as a result of explosions of rockets or major accide nts at chemical plants are formulated and analyzed. The spherical harm onics and Monte Carlo methods are used to calculate the spectral and i ntegral radiation heat fluxes that are characteristic of oxygen-hydrog en fireballs investigated in the PYRO experiments.
