A method to mitigate the consequences of a vapor cloud explosion due to an accidental release of a flammable gas in an open area, comprising: defining an hazardous area wherein an accidental release of flammable gas is likely to happen; receiving (300, 305) a signal from a detector device able to detect the presence of the flammable gas within the hazardous area, upon reception of a signal indicating the presence of the flammable gas within the hazardous area, generating (309) a control signal to activate a release of a flame acceleration suppression product in the hazardous area, at a rate that is determined as a function of the volume of said hazardous area. |
