Explosive range definition

Explosive range means the range between Lower Explosive Limit and Upper Explosive Limit of a flammable gas [or a mixture thereof] which is determined by an appropriate methodology which is fit for purpose such as USBM triangle, Coward triangle, and/or Le Chatelier’s rule.
Explosive range means the range between Lower Explosive Limit and Upper Explosive Limit which is determined by an appropriate methodology which is fit for purpose such as United States Bureau of Mines and/or Coward triangle;
