1、Designation: D5800 18aStandard Test Method forEvaporation Loss of Lubricating Oils by the Noack Method1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5800; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revi

2、sion. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers four procedures for determiningthe evaporation loss of lubricating oils (particularly engineoils). Pro

3、cedure A uses the Noack evaporative tester equip-ment; Procedure B uses the automated non-Woods metalNoack evaporative apparatus; Procedure C uses Selby-Noackvolatility test equipment, and Procedure D uses the Noack S2test equipment. The test method relates to one set of operatingconditions but may

4、be readily adapted to other conditions whenrequired.1.2 Noack results determined using Procedures A and Cprovide equivalent results and Procedures B and D provideequivalent results. However, A/C compared to B/D showconsistent differences. Procedure A/C give slightly lowerresults versus Procedure B/D

5、 on formulated engine oils, whileProcedure A/C give higher results versus Procedure B/D onbasestocks.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if

6、 any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internat

Significance and Use5.1 The evaporation loss is of particular importance inengine lubrication. Where high temperatures occur, portions ofan oil can evaporate.5.2 Evapo

17、ration may contribute to oil consumption in anengine and can lead to a change in the properties of an oil.5.3 Many engine manufacturers specify a maximum allow-able evaporation loss.5.4 Some engine manufacturers, when specifying a maxi-mum allowable evaporation loss, quote this test method alongwith

18、 the specifications.5.5 Procedure C, using the Selby-Noack apparatus, alsopermits collection of the volatile oil vapors for determinationof their physical and chemical properties. Elemental analysis ofthe collected volatiles may be helpful in identifying compo-nents such as phosphorous, which has be

In this respect the difference between both individualpower consumption should not exceed 0.15 kW. In the centerof the heating bl

21、ock, there is a circular recess to insert theevaporating crucible, the space between block and cruciblebeing filled with Woods alloy or a suitable equivalent. Twocatches on the block prevent the crucible from rising in theliquid metal bath. Two additional circular recesses at equalintervals from the

22、 center of the block are provided for thethermometers (see Fig. 1).6.1.2 Evaporating Crucible, with screw cover. The crucibleis made of stainless steel (see Fig. 2). Above the support ringis the thread for the cover. The nickel-plated brass cover ishermetically sealed to the crucible by an internal

Hazards8.1 Safety HazardsIt is assumed that anyone using thistest method will either be fully trained and familiar with allnormal laboratory practices, or will be under the direc

It is the responsibility of the operatorto ensure that all local legislative and statutory requirementsare met.8.2 (WarningThough the test method calls for a draft-free area, the exhaust fumes from the evaporating oil must beventilated to an outside source. Precautio

35、n shall be taken toavoid any possibility of fire or explosion.)NOTE 3One way to achieve a draft-free environment and greatersafety in operation for the instruments used in this test method is describedin Appendix X3.8.3 An alternate means for preventing draft described inAppendix X3 was not used in

Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Astandard assembly of the apparatus is shown in Fig. 5.To avoid disturbing the thermal equilibrium, the apparatusshall be assembled in a draftfree area and comply with Fig. 5in dimensions and apparatus. (See 8.2.)9.

37、2 Add sufficient Woods metal or equivalent material to therecesses of the heating block so that, with the crucible andthermometer in place, the remaining spaces will be filled withthe molten metal.9.3 Using the highest heating rate possible, raise the tem-perature of the heating block until the Wood

38、s metal is molten.Insert the thermometers with their bulbs touching the bottom ofthe recesses, and ensure that the contact thermometer isplugged in the back of the heating block. Adjust the powersupplied to the heating block so that the temperature can bemaintained at 250 C 6 0.5 C.9.4 Assemble the

The level of the molten metal should be such thata trace of it can be seen at the flange of the crucible and the topof the heating block.9.6 Check that the readings can be obtained on the manom-eter scale, or other measur

A reading of 20.0 mm 60.2 mm shall be obtained.9.7 Disconnect and remove the crucible from the assembledapparatus.9.8 Switch off the pump and the heating block and raise thecrucible and the thermometers from the molten Woods metal.Usi

Verification10.1 Switch on the pump and the heating block and ensurethat the apparatus is assembled, minus the crucible, as shownin Fig. 5.1

44、0.2 Check that the crucible and cover are free from lacquer.10.2.1 After every test, clean the crucible and cover withsolvent and allow to dry. Stubborn lacquer can be cleaned byabrasion from a glass beader under pressure.10.3 Pass the reamer through each of the three nozzles in thecover to ensure t

45、hat they are clear. (WarningUsing a reamerwith a diameter larger than 2 mm can enlarge the nozzles. Thiscan lead to higher losses because of increased air flow.)10.4 Run the ball bearing through the extraction tube toensure that it is clear of dirt.10.5 Weigh the empty crucible without its cover to

Switch the control of the heatingblock to compensate for the heat capacity of the crucible.Immediately (in less than 5 s), connect the extraction tube ofthe crucible to the arm of the glassY-piece, making a butt joint.Simultaneously, start the pump and the stopw

48、atch and adjustthe bleed valve to give a pressure differential of 20 mm 60.2 mm.NOTE 4When the crucible is in the test position, its flange should beflush with the top of the heating block. Any protrusion of the crucibleflange above the heating block may suggest a buildup of Woods metal slagat the b

49、ottom of the heating block recess. The heating block and thethermometer recesses should be cleaned and the Woods metal replaced ona regular basis to avoid the accumulation of slag. Oxidized Woods metalwill affect the heat transfer to the crucible and hence may have adeleterious effect on the results obtained.10.9 Adjust the control on the heating block to maintain theblock temperature approximately 5 C below the test tempera-ture. Readjust the temperature control so that the test tempera-ture is reestablished within 3 min of the start of the tes
