Based on Zalosh (2002), pp. 3-414 to 3-416.<br /> <br /> Original illustration for [[Explosion venting]], level 4 Expert.<br /> <br /> * Source basis: Zalosh (2002), p. 3-414 (definition, blow-off panels and rupture discs, early opening, discharge of combustion gases), p. 3-415 (As as the maximum flame area in the Swift-Epstein correlation), p. 3-416 (Pred, Pstat), p. 3-419 (blast waves from vented explosions)<br /> * Alt text: Cross-section of a room with a burning gas cloud inside and a blow-off panel in one wall through which flame and gas leave.<br /> <br /> == Licensing ==<br /> New drawing by Fire Safety Academy. © Fire Safety Academy.</div>
