Pool fire is generally described as a diffusion combustion process that occurs above a
horizontal fuel surface (composed of gaseous or volatile condensed fuel) with low (∼ zero) …

A fact often overlooked is that large-scale wildfires, although occurring infrequently, are
responsible for the overwhelming majority of fire-related suppression costs, economic …

This paper presents a quantitative analysis and interpretation on the effect of air entrainment
on the height of buoyant turbulent diffusion flames for multiple fires in open space. Two …

When two or more pool fires burn in such close proximity of one another that they can
influence each other, they are termed 'multiple pool fires'(MPF). The characteristics and the …

To study the influence of cross wind on flame interaction and burning characteristics of two
abreast liquid fuel fires, a series of burning experiments on transversely spaced heptane …

The interaction of converging fires often leads to significant changes in fire behavior,
including increased flame length, angle, and intensity. In this paper, the fluid mechanics of …

Multiple fires may occur in close proximity in process industries, power generation and fuel
storage facilities and confinement conditions such as tunnels, which can lead to a …

For clarifying the combustion behavior of a circular ring thin-layer pool fire, a series of
experiments with varying pool diameters were carried out. The equivalent pool area of 0.071 …

In past few decades a wide range of major accidents were reported due to oil & gas
operation in offshore industry. Among of them hydrocarbon fire is the most frequently …

The article discusses the suitability of several existing empirical models for determining the
safe separation distances (SSDs) for waste fuels. Contour plots of SSDs are generated …
