1、Designation: D6542 05 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Practice forTonnage Calculation of Coal in a Stockpile1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6542; 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. Scope1.1 This practice is used to calculate the mass (commonlyexpressed in tons) of coal in a storage pile using the volume ofthe stockp

3、ile by Test Method D6172 and the density of the coaldetermined by Test Method D6347/D6347M.1.2 This practice is applicable to all ranks of coal.1.3 The user of this standard determines when the densityvalues provided by the survey require an adjustment formoisture.1.4 The values stated in either inc

4、h-pounds or SI units are tobe regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI unitsare shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are notexact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used inde-pendently of the other. Combining values from the two systemscan result in nonconform

Ifthe moisture content was determined on the density-measurement samples (see Test Method D6347/D6347M), thenthe density data (and the tonnage) can be calculated to a drybasis or to another moisture-containing basis.5.1.1 Use Eq 1 or Eq 2 to

Confidence Interval Calculation6.1 A measurement is stated as a quantity, plus or minussome confidence interval, at some level of significance. In thecase of volume, this translates to total volume (

18、in ft3), plus orminus some tolerance factor (stated as percent of total volume),calculated at a significance level consistent with Annex A5 ofTest Method D6347/D6347M, D6172.6.2 The tolerance for the inventory results combines thetolerances, in %, of the density survey data and the volumetricdata ac
