This paper reviews the physics and correlations for the burning behaviour of pool fires in
wind, discussing also challenges for future research on this topic. In the past decades, the …

With increased oil exploration and marine activity in the warming Arctic, there is an
increased risk of future oil spills in the Arctic region. In-situ burning (ISB), along with the use …

The data set of our previous experiments in a wind tunnel is re-analyzed and interpreted in
this paper in order to provide a more focused description of the manner the cross-flow affects …

The burning characteristics of conduction-controlled rectangular hydrocarbon pool fires in a
reduced pressure atmosphere have not been revealed in the past. In this paper, rectangular …

The influence of the initial fuel temperature on the burning behavior of n-heptane pool fire
was experimentally studied at the State Key Laboratory of Fire Science (SKLFS) large test …

In order to improve the potential of in-situ burning (ISB), the importance of the oil slick
thickness on two pure oils (n-octane and dodecane) and two fresh crude oils (Grane and …

In order to improve the understanding of the burning efficiency and its observed size
dependency of in-situ burning of crude oil on water, the vaporization order of the …

Fire whirls are powerful, spinning disasters for people and surroundings when they occur in
large urban and wildland fires. Whereas fire whirls have been studied for fire-safety …

Square pool fires with length of 5, 7.5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30cm and rectangular pool fires
with dimensions of 10cm× 20cm and 10cm× 40cm were burned in a wind tunnel, under a …

This paper reports a new global relation developed to characterize burning behavior of
acetone pool fire under crosswind ranged from 0 to 2.5 m/s with incremental change of …
