The equilateral, big triangle, may be considered to represent a case with
optimum gas/oxygen relation, i.e. minimum ignition energy is required to
trigger an explosion. If the ignition energy is high enough, an explosion will
take place.
The small triangle to the left has the same values of oxygen and igniting
energy as in the equilateral, big triangle, but the content of gas is too small to
perform an explosion.
I.e. the gas/air mixture is too weak for an explosion to take place.
The remaining two small triangles should be self-explaining, showing the
cases with too low igniting energy and too little oxygen respectively.
