A bonfire is a large but controlled outdoor fire, used either for informal disposal of burnable waste material or as part of a celebration.The name bonfire is derived from the fact that bonfires were originally fires in which bones were burned.s many other traditions in Scandinavia, St. Hans is believed to have a pagan origin, the celebration of mid summer's eve. In Sweden Walpurgis Night is celebrated on 30 April which includes the burning of a bonfire. In Finland, Midsummer Eve is celebrated with large bonfires.
1 Fire is an event, not a thing. Heating wood or other fuel releases volatile vapors that can rapidly combust with oxygen in the air; the resulting incandescent bloom of gas further heats the fuel, releasing more vapors and perpetuating the cycle. 2 Most of the fuels we use derive their energy from trapped solar rays. In photosynthesis, sunlight and heat make chemical energy (in the form of wood or fossil fuel); fire uses chemical energy to produce light and heat. 3 So a bonfire is basically a tree running in reverse. 4 Assuming stable fuel, heat, and oxygen levels, a typical house fire will double in size every minute.
