Abstract: On the base of basic theory of view factor, the view factor computation technology of pool fire with cross wind was studied. Related formulas for key parameters of view factor calculation were deduced according to the geometry topology, and further, the radiation surface of pool fire with cross wind was reasonably separated to establish the numerical computation formula of view factor. A procedure was developed using VB 6.0 for calculating view factor of pool fire with cross wind. From samples calculation, it was found that the procedure is reliable for pool fire without cross wind by comparing the result with what from theoretical model, and the new method can also effectively conquer the empirical model's shortcoming: incapable of calculating the view factor of pool fire with cross wind.
