Units

Significance and Use5.1 The data from this test can be used to estimate the bulkdensity of materials in bins, hoppe

10、rs and for material handlingapplications such as silos.5.2 The test results can be greatly affected by the sampleselected for testing. For meaningful results it is necessary toselect a representative sample of the particulate solid withrespect to moisture content, particle size distribution andtempe

11、rature. For the tests an appropriate size sample should beavailable, and a fresh material should be used for eachindividual test specimen.5.3 Initial bulk density may or may not be used as theminimum bulk density. This will depend on the material beingtested.5.4 Bulk density values may be dependent

12、upon the mag-nitude of the load increments. Traditionally, the load is doubledfor each increment resulting in a load-increment ratio of 1.Smaller than standard load increment ratios may be desirablefor materials that are highly sensitive to the load incrementratio.5.5 Bulk density values may be depe

13、ndent upon the durationof each load increment. Traditionally, the load duration is thesame for each increment and equal to 15 s. For some materials,the rate of consolidation is such that complete consolidation(dissipation of excess pore pressure) will require significantlymore than 15 s.6. Apparatus

The stand must be level and securely mounted on avibration free base to support the test apparatus.6.3 Density Cup, with cover to contain the test specimen.Density cup cover has a ball mounted in the center. T

The ratio of diameter to height must be at least 3:1.6.4 Weights, to be used with the weight hanger fo

Additional weights may be used ifmore data points are desired or required.7.4.1 Calcula

Procedure8.1 Determine the mass of the density cup and record thisvalue to the nearest 0.1 g on a test data sheet as th

22、e tare weight.8.2 Determine the weight of the cover and the weighthanger (this weight along with the spring force from the dialindicator, become the initial weight). Be sure this weight is lessthan the smallest weight to be used. These are to be recordedto the nearest 0.1 g on a test data sheet, and

23、 the total of thesewill be used as the first compression weight.8.3 Insert the plug, (or gage block) inside the density cup.Place the cover on the plug, next place the density cup on thetest stand, and then place the weight hanger on the cover.Position the dial indicator on the top of the weight han

24、ger, thenset the dial indicator to zero. Now carefully lift the plunger ofthe dial indicator far enough to be able to slide the density cupout from under the dial indicator so when the material is putFIG. 1 Test ApparatusD6683012into the density cup, you wont accidently bump the dialindicator.8.4 Re

25、move the weight hanger, then the cover and plug.8.5 Place the test specimen into a mixing bowl, and stir thematerial with a spatula to be assured the material hasntagglomerated from transit. Avoid segregation of material.8.6 Carefully spoon the material into the density cup asloosely as possible to

26、the point of overflowing. Scrape off allexcess material using a straight fiat scraper. The angle of thescraper as it is drawn across the density cup should be such thatit does not compress the sample in the cup. Allow the sampleto set for approximately one minute. If the sample has settledbelow the

27、top of the density cup add additional material tobring the level above the cover and scrape again. Weigh thedensity cup again with the material in the cup. Be careful notto spill any material. Record this value to the nearest 0.1 g onthe test data sheet.8.7 Place the density cup back on the stand, t

Place thecentering rod of the weight hanger over the ball which ismounted to the center of the cover, and is used as a pivot for theweight hanger. Slowly lift the plunger of the dial indicator, andslide the cup, cover and hanger unde

29、r the plunger. Allow theplunger to come down and rest on the weight hanger. Recordthe height indicated by the dial indicator due to the mass of thecover, the weight hanger, and the spring force to the nearest0.02 mm on the test data sheet. This is the first height.8.8 Hang the weight support on the

30、bottom of the weighthanger. Record the height due to this additional weight to thenearest 0.02 mm on the test data sheet.8.9 Record the height to the nearest 0.02 mm with eachweight that is added. Record each weight added allowing 15 sbetween the change in loads as well as the change in height, asin

31、dicated by the dial indicator. Usually 5 weights will besufficient to accomplish the maximum compaction. However,there may be times when more than 5 weights are required. Ifthis is the case, continue to add weights until there is no furthercompaction indicated by additional height on the dial indica

32、tor.The number of points to establish the desired consolidationpressure is based on how the data will be used, and will dictatehow many weights must be used.NOTE 1At the completion of the test, visually inspect the coversposition with respect to the density cup. If it is visibly tilted, the test is

33、notvalid and should be repeated, paying particular attention to proceduresteps 8.5 and 8.6. Tilting of the lid is most often caused by non-uniforminitial bulk density in the density cup.8.10 From the data recorded, calculate and plot the bulkdensity and consolidation pressure.9. Calculation9.1 To ca

34、lculate the initial bulk density (Vo), subtract themass of the density cup from the value obtained of the densitycup with material in it. This mass is in kilograms. To calculatethe volume of the density cup multiply the area of the insidediameter of the cup by the depth of the cup.Vol15p3D!2/4 3 h1m

35、3!where:D = the inside diameter of the density cup, inm,h1= the overall inside depth of the density cup,in m, andinitial density = net mass/Vol1.9.2 Calculate the volume based on the original depth of thecup, minus the height indicated by the dial indicator times p3 (D)2/4. With each additional weig

36、ht added, a new densitycan be calculated. To calculate each consolidation pressure,add the mass of the cover, the mass of the weight hanger, thespring force of the dial indicator and any additional weightsused then divide by the inside area of the density cup.Voln5p3D!2/4 3 hnwhere:hn= the new depth

37、 in m for each additional weight.10. Report10.1 A curve is then generated from the data obtained withthis test. The heading of the curve would be, “Bulk density asa function of consolidation pressure,” with the “x” axis beingthe consolidation pressure in kPa (1000 N/m2) and the “y” axisbeing the bul

38、k density in kg/m3. The data is then plotted on alinear graph. As an alternate, the data could be plotted on alog-log graph.11. Precision and Bias11.1 Data are being evaluated to determine the precision ofthis method. In addition, Subcommittee D18.24 is seekingpertinent data from users of this test

39、method.11.2 There is no accepted reference value for this testmethod, therefore, bias cannot be determined.11.3 In almost all cases there is not a reference value for testmethods under the jurisdiction of D18.
