Inflammation occurring as soon as a flammable product is released into the atmosphere, i.e. as soon as the concentration of the product in the air reaches the flammable range.

Inflammation retardée: delayed ignition

Inflammation occurring at a later stage than the start of the release of a flammable product into the atmosphere.

Intensité d'inflammation: ignition intensity

Ignition intensity (λ) is a parameter used to calculate the probability of an ignition source being present and active. For the same source, it differs according to whether the source is considered discrete or continuous.

Source d'inflammation continue; continuous ignition source

Permanently active source...
