Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Experimental study of burning rate in jet-fuel pool fires | Experiments were carried out in a 30 cm diameter pool fire, for both transient and steady-state conditions, utilizing jet fuel, Norpar-15, and a surrogate mixture of hydrocarbons that simulates jet-fuel behavior in a pool fire. Steady state pool fire tests match previous results well. The transient ... | Pool fires; Jet propulsion fuel; Norpar-15 | 2004 |

Smith, Philip J. | Soot in combustion simulations | Soot is the dominant source of radiative heat transfer from most practical flames. A review is presented of historical, empirical modelling approaches for estimating heat flux from fires and flames. These historical methods have drawn on empiricism to address the role of soot while seeking methods f... | Large eddy simulation; LES; Combustion simulation; Radiative heat transfer; Pool fires | 2005 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Spinti, Jennifer C.; Smith, Philip J. | Soot volume fraction from extinction in JP-8 and heptane pool fires | Total extinction measurements from a multiple beam experiment using a 10mW laser diode are presented and compared to calculate soot volume fraction in heavily sooting pool fires from a 150 mm diameter pan of Jet Propulsion fuel 8 (JP-8) and heptane. Trends in attenuation are critiqued for the t... | Pool fires; Jet propulsion fuel | 2005 |
