Based on Gray (2002), p. 2-212, and Kanury (2002b), p. 2-196.<br /> <br /> Original vector illustration for [[Autoignition temperature]], level 2 Intermediate.<br /> <br /> * Source basis: Gray (2002), pp. 2-211 to 2-212 (critical condition, reaction rate almost exponential, heat loss linear); Kanury (2002b), p. 2-196 (thermal runaway, heat exchange with vessel walls)<br /> * Alt text: Graph of heat generation and heat loss against temperature; an exponential generation curve touches a straight loss line at the critical temperature.<br /> <br /> == Licensing ==<br /> New drawing by Fire Safety Academy. © Fire Safety Academy.</div>
