For the first time, fundamental principles of energy conservation are used to develop theoretical flammability diagrams and are then explored to understand various safety-related mixing problems. This provides the basis for a fully-analytical solution to any flammability problem. Instead of the traditional view that flammability is a fundamental material property, here flammability is discovered to be a result of the explosibility of air and the ignitability of fuel, or a process property. By exploring the more fundamental concepts of explosibility and ignitability, the safety targets of dilution and purge can be better defined and utilized for guiding safe operations in process safety. This book provides various engineering approaches to mixture flammability, benefiting not only the safety students, but also field operators, as a useful resource for the safe handling of flammable gases and liquids. It will be useful to anyone who worries about the ignition potential of a flammable mixture.  .Chemical engineeringChemistryThermodynamicsHeat engineeringHeatTransmissionMass transferIndustrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C27000Safety in Chemistry, Dangerous Goodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C23004Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transferhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T14000Thermodynamicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21050Chemical engineering.Chemistry.Thermodynamics.Heat engineering.HeatTransmission.Mass transfer.Industrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineering.Safety in Chemistry, Dangerous Goods.Engineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer.Thermodynamics.536.754604.7621.4021660Ma Tingguangauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut979430BOOK9910298608303321Ignitability and Explosibility of Gases and Vapors2232960UNINA
