selfignite
Self-ignite refers to the ignition of a material caused by internal heat generation rather than an external flame or spark. In safety and scientific contexts, it is often described as spontaneous combustion or self-heating that leads to ignition when the rate of heat production within a material exceeds its rate of heat loss. The concept is closely related to autoignition, but self-ignite emphasizes the buildup of heat inside a bulk substance or system rather than ignition from a defined external source.
Mechanisms of self-ignite typically involve exothermic reactions such as oxidation, decomposition, fermentation, or other chemical or
Detection and mitigation efforts focus on preventing heat buildup and improving heat removal. This includes monitoring
