Іn this article, the foundations of the formation of the acoustic method of impact on the combustion center have been considered. The relationship between the parameters of the acoustic impact on the source of an emergency arising from a fire, depending on the burning substance has been established. Separate proposals on the parameters of acoustic impact (power, frequency, pulse shape) and design solutions for acoustic systems for suppressing the combustion process in the fire source at the initial stage of the development of an emergency have been developed.
Key words: acoustic method, acoustic impact, combustion process, emergency, acoustic lens.
