What Is a Flammability Limit?

The flammability limit refers to the limit of the composition or pressure. Beyond this limit, the mixed system of combustibles and combustion-supporting materials cannot burn. When a flammable mixture is ignited by heating a plane gas layer, it is found that the energy (surface area per plane layer) added to the gas must exceed a certain minimum value to cause a fire. [1]
