In order to study the relationship between wind speed and such combustion characteristics as pool fire flame length, tilt angle, combustion mass loss rate and heat release rate, a small round diesel pool fire with wind-blown experimental platform was built. The wind speed was 0–1 m/s and the oil pan diameters were 0.218 m, 0.175 m and 0.13 m, respectively. A new dimensionless parameter Hr is defined to describe the effects of buoyancy, initial momentum and horizontal wind force on flame length and tilt angle. The results show that when 0
