Flash spotting

Flash spotting is when a flame appears suddenly and briefly in a specific spot. It usually happens when there is a mixture of fuel and air that is hot enough to ignite, but the conditions are not quite right for a sustained flame. When this happens, the mixture ignites briefly, but then the flame goes out again just as quickly. It's like a tiny firecracker going off, and it can be dangerous because it can cause explosions or other accidents. So, it's important to understand flash spotting and how to avoid it when working with flammable materials.
