An LNG pool vaporization rate model is used to analyze the effect of multiple heat sources on the vaporization process. The heat sources include convection, conduction from dyke, conduction from tank, radiation, and conduction from water. It is found that the multiple heat source effect increases the rate of vaporization. The integrated spreading and vaporization rates model are solved analytically and implemented in FORTRAN. The overall results indicate, among other factors, that the magnitude of the heat flux into the pool will affect the vaporization rate and, therefore, multiple heat sources to the pool should be considered when predicting LNG pool vaporization rates.
