Abstract
[ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH] In this paper, burning rates measured during unsteady combustion of small pool fires using three different fuels are discussed. Unsteady combustion is obtained by a batch test in which the fuel level in the tank decreases after ignition. We measured the burning rates, the fuel temperature, and the tank temperature of three different fuels.
