Pool fire experiments were conducted at the Centre d’Estudis del Risc Tecnol\`{o}gic (CERTEC), Universitat Polit\`{e}cnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain~\cite{Munoz:JHM2007}. The experiments were performed using gasoline and diesel oil as fuel. Five concentric circular pools (1.5, 3, 4, 5 and 6~m in diameter) were used. Five of the experiments have been chosen for study, listed in Table~\ref{CERTEC_Parameters}. Modeling and experimental results are presented in Ref.~\cite{Rengel:JLP2018}.

Sandia National Laboratories conducted experiments in support of siting requirements for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) facilities~\cite{Luketa:11078}. The experiments involved jet fires, pool fires, fireballs, and concrete walls that could serve as thermal barriers. The fuels tested include ethane, ethylene, propane, and isopentane. The jet fires are considered moderate in scale with projected flame lengths up to 17.3~m and exit mass flow rates up to 2.3~kg/s. The pool fires and fireballs are considered large scale with a pool diameter of 5~m and maximum effective diameter up to 78~m, respectively. Measurements for the fire experiments include flame geometry, heat flux external to the fire, surface emissive power, and in the case of fireballs, rise height and duration. Data was also collected for model parameter inputs such as atmospheric conditions that include wind speed, wind direction, temperature, pressure, and relative humidity, as well as the conditions of the fuel supply.
