2、r oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the evaluation of the perfor-m
3、ance of distillate fuels from the standpoint of clean, efficientburning. It is intended primarily for use with home heatingequipment burning No. 1 or No. 2 fuel oils. It can be usedeither in the laboratory or in the field to compare fuels using agiven heating unit or to compare the performance of he
4、atingunits using a given fuel.1.2 The values in inch-pound units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values in parentheses are provided for informa-tion only. Arbitrary and relative units are also used.NOTE 1This test method applies only to pressure atomizing androtary-type burners.1.3 This stand
5、ard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 effciencydefined as the percentage of gross heat ofcombustion of the fuel which is retained by the equipment andwhich does not pass out
7、in the flue gases.3.1.2 excess combustion airthe percentage of air enteringthe equipment over and above that needed for stoichiometricconversion of the fuel to the ultimate combustion products,essentially CO2and water, for a normal fuel. This may becalculated from the percentage CO2in the flue gas a
8、nd thecarbon-hydrogen ratio of the fuel.3.1.3 flue-gas carbon dioxide (CO2)the percentage con-centration of carbon dioxide in the flue gas, measured byconventional Orsat analysis, or the equivalent.3.1.4 net stack temperaturethe difference between thestack temperature and the ambient temperature of

Summary of Test Method4.1 The flue-gas smoke density is measured for variousamounts of combustion air while the burner is operating a
10、tequilibrium conditions. Results are expressed as a plot ofsmoke density as a function of flue-gas carbon dioxide (CO2)content, or alternatively, as a function of percentage excesscombustion air.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method relates efficiency of operation ofdomestic heating equipment
11、to clean burning. Reducing com-bustion air in a burner gives more efficient operation. Theextent to which combustion air can be reduced is limited by theonset of unacceptable smoke production. By delineating therelation between smoke density and air supply, this test method(together with net stack t
12、emperature data) defines the maxi-mum efficiency for a given installation at any acceptable smokelevel.5.2 For certain types of equipment, such as the rotarywall-flame burner, too much excess air will cause smoke aswell as too little. For these cases, the point of minimum excessair at the acceptable
13、 smoke level indicates the optimumefficiency.5.3 The operating temperatures of the equipment will affectthese test results. The relation of excess air to smoke density isthus susceptible to some change at different points in an1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetro

In practice, an adequate compromise is pos-sible by operating the burner for 15 min before any readingsare recorded and then obtaining the test data within a succeed-ing 25-min period.5.4 Under laboratory conditions, CO2readings
17、are repro-ducible to 60.3 % and smoke readings are reproducible to 612smoke spot number.6. Apparatus6.1 Sampling Device for determining smoke density, asdescribed in the Apparatus section of Test Method D 2156.6.2 Conventional Orsat Apparatus, or the equivalent, fordetermining the volume percentage
18、of CO2in the dry fluegases.6.3 Suitable Flue Gas Probes for smoke density and CO2measurements. These are to be located not more than 12 in.(300 mm) from the outlet of the boiler or furnace and at leasttwo flue-pipe diameters before any barometric draft control(Note 2). The probe ends shall be locate
19、d so that the samplesare withdrawn from the centerline of the flue pipe.NOTE 2In some field installations, a compromise can be made, inwhich case the probes may be inserted as close to the outlet as possible,but not closer to a barometric draft control than one flue pipe diameter. Inthe event this c
20、ompromise cannot be met, the manufacturer may berequested to furnish instructions stating the location of sampling pointsand the procedure for taking measurements.7. Procedure7.1 Start the burner and operate for 15 min according tomanufacturers specifications (particular attention should bepaid to d
21、raft and oil pressure). Then take flue-gas samples forsmoke and CO2and record.7.2 Change the air shutter settings, operate for 4 min,sample, and record smoke and CO2. Repeat until a minimum offour data points is obtained, spaced over the range of interest.The entire data-taking period must be accomp
22、lished withinabout 25 min for a field installation.8. Report8.1 Report the smoke density-CO2relation or the smokedensity-excess air relation, or both, in graphical form. Fig. 1shows typical pressure-atomizing burner and typical rotarywallflame burner data.8.2 For fuels of varying composition, excess
23、 air is of morefundamental significance than CO2. It is calculated from fuelcomposition data and flue gas CO2by conventional methods.For many purposes, however, available No. 1 and No. 2 fueloils are similar enough in composition so that results reportedonly in terms of percent CO2are useful. When t
24、his is done,report the fuel as either No. 1 or No. 2 fuel oils.9. Precision and Bias9.1 PrecisionNumerical rating of the smoke spot numberas determined by the statistical examination of the test resultsobtained by seven operators and smoke guns on identicalsmoke samples at six different air levels i
25、s as follows:9.1.1 RepeatabilityThe difference between the two smokespot test results obtained by the same operator with the sameapparatus under constant operating conditions on identical testmaterial would, in the long run, in the normal and correctoperation of the test method, exceed one-half of a
26、 smoke spotnumber for only one case in twenty (Note 3).9.1.2 ReproducibilityUnder laboratory conditions, CO2measurements are reproducible to 60.3 volume percent CO2.The difference between two single and independent measure-ments of smoke spot number by different operator/instrumentpairs at the same
27、location on identical test material would, inthe long run and in the normal and correct operation of the testmethod, exceed one smoke spot number for only one case intwenty (Note 3).NOTE 3On July 10, 1989, seven test participants performed themeasurement of smoke density in flue gases from burning d
28、istillate fuelsat six different excess air settings. All smoke spot determinations weremade, in duplicate, by each operator using a separate smoke gun, at onetest site. No CO2measurements were performed during this program. Thecited reproducibility for CO2is taken from the 1980 version of this testm
29、ethod, which did not reference the source of the reproducibility.39.2 BiasThe bias of this test method cannot be determinedbecause there is no accepted standard distillate fuel with aknown smoke spot number.10.
