Significance and Use3.1 This test method is used to measure the rate of flow ofair or nitrogen through refractory brick and monoliths and tothus determine the permea

Figs. 1-3 illustrate a suitable apparatus.4The apparatusconsists of the following components:4.1.1 Permeating Medium, air or nitrogen with regulator-controlled inlet pressure.4.1.2 Drier Tubes, each fille

8、d with a desiccant and strainer;used to remove any water or dirt from the gas before enteringthe flowmeters.4.1.3 FlowmetersThey will measure the flow of permeat-ing media in the range from 0 to 9000 cm3/min. Theflowmeters may be calibrated to read the flow directly of eitherair or nitrogen. The ran

Specimen Preparation5.1 One 2 by 2 by 2 in. (51 by 51 by 51 mm) specimen shallbe cut from each of four pieces constituting the sample ofma

11、terial to be tested. The specimen should be cut in such amanner as to fit snugly into the gasket.5.2 The specimens shall be cut so that three originalsurfaces are retained. In cases where it is desirable to determinethe permeability of specimens that show directional differencesin permeability, the

12、original surfaces shall be identified, and thevalues determined separately for each direction of gas flow.5.3 The specimens shall be dried for 16 h at 220 to 230F(105 to 110C) and cooled to room temperature before testing.After drying, all specimen surfaces shall be blown free of dustwith clean dry

Calculation7.1 When using air, calculate the permeability in centidar-cys (Note) at room temperature, using one of the formulasbelow which depend on the type of manometer used. Ifnitrogen is used as the permeating medium, the permeability ascalculated by either of the formulas s

Precision and Bias59.1 Interlaboratory DataAn interlaboratory round robinwas conducted in which seven laboratories each tested fourspecimens from two different types of refractory materials.Results were published in 1993 Research Report No. 1378.Each laboratory performed two trials on each spe

28、cimen todetermine the permeability in centidarcys. The components ofvariance from this study expressed as standard deviation andrelative standard deviation are given in Table 1. Refer toPractice C 1095 for calculating precision data on refractoriesfrom interlaboratory test results.9.2 Precision:9.2.

29、1 RepeatabilityThe maximum permissible differencedue to test error between two test results obtained by oneoperator on the same material using the same test equipment isgiven by the repeatability interval and the relative repeatabilityinterval (coefficient of variation). The 95 % repeatability inter

30、-vals are given in Table 1. Two test results which do not differby more than the repeatability interval will be considered to befrom the same population; and, conversely, two test resultswhich do differ by more than the repeatability interval will beconsidered to be from different populations.9.2.2

31、ReproducibilityThe maximum permissible differ-ence due to test error between two test results obtained by twooperators in different laboratories on the same material usingthe same test equipment is given by the reproducibility intervaland the relative reproducibility interval (coefficient of varia-t

32、ion). The 95 % reproducibility intervals are given in Table 1.Two test results which do not differ by more than thereproducibility interval will be considered to be from the samepopulation; and, conversely, two test results which do differ bymore than the reproducibility interval will be considered

33、to befrom different populations.9.3 BiasNo justifiable statement on bias is possible sincethe true physical property values of refractories cannot beestablished by an acceptable reference material.10.
