The risk of accidental spills and possible fires is high in the storage and handling of large quantities of flammable liquids. Such liquid pool fires are generally buoyancy-driven and emit a large fraction of their heat release in the form of radiation. Ignition and combustion characteristics of liquid pools depend on the design parameters such as diameter, spacing, and shape of the pools. This laboratory scale study was conducted to determine the effects of these parameters on the characteristics of multiple liquid pool fires. The measurements reported include pool surface regression rate, flame height, temperature, and concentrations of carbon dioxide, soot, and oxygen.

In order to study the effects of low atmospheric pressure conditions on combustion characteristics of liquid pool fires, a 1.0m×1.0m×1.0m airtight steel box was constructed and used for altering the ambient pressure with a vacuum pump. Gasoline, diesel oil and n-heptane were tested as the liquid fuels. The mass burning rate, flame pulsation frequency and flame local temperature history of the small scale pool fires were experimentally determined. The results show that the mass burning rate, flame pulsation frequency decrease with the decrease of ambient pressure, while the pulsating intensity is strengthened slightly for the n-heptane flame and weakened for the gasoline flame. It is also shown that the high temperature area of the flame moves upward with the decrease of ambient pressure.
