This paper presents an experimental investigation on flame lengths of medium pool fires under horizontal cross air flows. Square pool fires with dimensions of 10cm, 15cm, 20cm, and 25cm, using ethanol and heptane as typical fuels, are burned under cross air flows ranged in 0–2.5m/s. The burning rates are measured by an electronic balance with accuracy of 0.1g. The flame geometrical characteristics...
The work in this paper is to clarify and quantify experimentally the effect of cross air flow on flame radiation feedback to fuel surface in medium pool fires. Square pools with dimensions ranged in 10–25cm are burnt under cross air flow speed ranged in 0–2.5m/s, using ethanol and heptane as representative fuel producing flame of definitely different sootiness and luminosity as to compare their response...
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 rate of gasoline pool fires. It was unexpectedly found that the burning rates (mass consumption rate per unit area) under a certain level of cross air flow decrease with pool size, which is opposite to...
