Large-scale pool fire test recommendations
Abstract
The important aspects of external pool fires are outlined. The research objectives are: (1) determine heat flux to surfaces as a function of pool size (convective and radiative heat flux); (2) obtain information that can be compared with theoretical models for radiative flux in the near field; and (3) predict radiative heat flux for arbitrary pool size. The measurements and instrumentation (calorimeters and thermocouples) used for pool fires are outlined.
