Abstract: In order to improve the procedures of action of the intervention teams during an incident caused by a fire, a model is presented by estimating the dwell times based on the ambient temperature. Currently, almost all intervention teams have thermographic cameras, which show in real time an image of the heat radiation that a body is emitting, through its radiation intensity. From this temperature and through the application of an equation or graphic resolution, the maximum dwell times in the affected area are obtained, so that fatal accidents are avoided during the intervention. In the end, it is obtained that the maximum permissible temperature in the intervention area is 263 °C, with the maximum time spent in these conditions being 26 seconds.
