Rail tank cars exposed to fires : analyses of thermal conditions to a railcar engulfed in crude oil fires (series 1-3 tests) / author(s): Yoon Ko, Cecilia Lam, Eric Gibbs, Pier-Simon Lafrance and Mark...: T86-69/2021E-PDF

"Transport Canada and National Research Council Canada (NRC) have established an experimental research program to better evaluate the comparative thermal hazard between different crude oils as a result of pool fires, which could occur as a consequence of an accident in the land transport of crude oils. More specifically, the research program focuses on evaluating the thermal hazard presented by exposing rail tank cars to hydrocarbon pool fires"--Page 2.
