Autoignition

---

Minimum energy to ignite = 10,000,000J = 10MJ

$E = C \div T $
Energy(J) = Heat Capacity(J/K) / Temperature(K)

$C = n \times c $
Heat Capacity(J/K) = Amount(mol) * Specific Heat(J/K/mol)

$n = (P \times V) \div (R \times T) $
$n = \frac{P \times V}{R \times T}$
Amount(mol) = (Pressure(Pa) * Volume(m³)) / (Ideal Gas Constant * Temperature(K))
Ideal Gas Constant = 8.3144
