Abstract:
The important problem of spontaneous ignition of solids heated by temporarily variant thermal radiant exposure is studied. Available data are examined in the light of a simple heat balance analysis to find that the observed behavior is predictable. An exposition of the elements of this general problem of ignition is made to realize that further research is required to predict the ignition behavior of realistic solids under realistic reradiative and free convective loss conditions.
