English term or phrase: pool fire
Ignition of gas and liquid leaks gives fires and/or explosions. A flash fire is modelled as a swift flame with a volume 8 times greater than the ignited gas cloud volume, forming a fireball. Immediate ignitions of leaks lead secondary, steady fires started as a result of the flash fire / fireball, typically either a pool fire or jetfire (or a combination of the two). Jetfire fire of hydrocarbon material discharged under pressure, eg a flame-thrower

zapaljena lokva
Explanation:
Zapaljena lokva, s mogućim učinkom toplinskog zračenja, mogla bi nastati uslijed izlijevanja zapaljive tekućine. Granica opasnosti za ovu vrstu požara, kako navodi pravilnik, je razina toplinskog zračenja od 5 kW/m2 u 40-sekundi; 40-sekundna izloženostovolikoj razini topline moglo bi uzrokovati opekline drugog stupnja.

zapaljenje lokve opasne tvari


Explanation:
i naftni derivati.
Scenarij najgoreg mogućeg slučaja pretpostavlja maksimalno istjecanje opasne tvari iz procesa, tj. iz nadzemnog
spremnika (za opasne tvari uskladištene u nadzemnom spremniku) ili spremnika autocisterne (za opasne tvari uskla
dištene u podzemnom spremniku1), te zapaljenja lokve opasne tvari (tzv. «pool fire») ili eksploziju oblaka para koji
se formira iznad prolivene opasne tvari.

usmjereni kontrolirani vatreni mlaz


Explanation:
"Pool fire" (usmjereni vatreni mlaz) podrazumijeva horizontalno sagorijevanje, što podrazumijeva da je gorivo u tekućem obliku iako se može odnositi i na čvrsta goriva koja sagorijevaju na sličan način kao i zapaljive tekućine [npr., pleksiglas i polietilen). Tekuće gorivo može gorjeti u otvorenom skladišnom kontejneru ili izliveno na tlo. Kad se prolije, zapaljiva tekućina često formira "bazen" raznih oblika i gustine i lako ju je kontrolirati
