A number of measurements were made to help define the thermal and flow conditions in a 9 x 18 meter pool fire that was used to simulate a transportation accident.
Temperatures were measured at twenty-eight locations throughout the continous flame region. Velocities were measured at four vertical stations near the centerline of the pool. Heat fluxes were estimated from thermal measurements on and near vertical steel plates.
As is often the case in fires of this size, the effects of mild, ambient winds on the measurements were pronounced. Attempts have been made to mitigate these effects by the application of conditional sampling. Temperatures and velocities are compared with other experimental results as well as results of modeling efforts.
