Physical Modelling of Enclosed Pool Fires
The report deals with a theoretical and experimental study of enclosed pool fires as well as an assessment of the possibilities of predicting important fire parameters through reduced scale tests. Experiments in a room with dimensions of 1m x 1m x 1m are carried out in order to find out how enclosed pool fires respond to different fire conditions and to predict the physical mechanisms controlling such fires. Empirical correlations for the temperature increase of the upper hot gas layer and fire exposed surfaces are developed for the transient phase of the fire. A scaling analysis yields scaling rules or laws for more of the fire parameters involved.
