The trench effect is a combination of circumstances that can rush a fire up an inclined surface. It depends on two well-understood but separate ideas: the Coanda effect from fluid dynamics and the flashover concept from fire dynamics.

King's Cross Station; London, 18th of November 1987. A wooden escalator caught fire, and the trench effect caused the flames to burst into the crowded ticket hall. 31 dead, 100 more burned. This effect may not look like much, but it can be lethal in the real world.
