==Heat== A thermal wave is created by the sudden release of heat caused by an explosion. Military bomb tests have documented temperatures of up to 2,480 Β°C (4,500 Β°F). While capable of inflicting severe to catastrophic burns and causing secondary fires, thermal wave effects are considered very limited in range compared to shock and fragmentation. This rule has been challenged, however, by military development of [[thermobaric weapon]]s, which employ a combination of negative shock wave effects and extreme temperature to incinerate objects within the blast radius.
