We present a new simplified method to calculate the ignition times when both conduction and in-depth radiation absorption in an externally heated solid are significant by deriving an integral equation for the surface temperature history. We achieve this by decomposing the problem into two simple additive problems and in addition, we also provide asymptotic solutions for the surface temperature history at short and long times. These solutions allow to find the relations between the ignition times at different degrees of in-depth energy absorption and the relations between the thermal solid parameters and the in-depth absorption coefficient. In addition, these results are useful in interpreting experimental results on ignition in order to assess when and to what extent in-depth radiation affects the ignition times.
