Flooding from fire could occur depending on the damage done by the fires. Mainly, though, keeping the fire from the fuel, or coal depending on what the uses would be the main reason.
But heat and flame, could do things like undermine the structure by warping or buckling things that cause a chain reaction of things leading to eventual flooding from seams splitting and what not on the hull.
I'll have to give this a try once I get back in port.
