1、Designation: C899 79 (Reapproved 2013)Standard Practice forUse of Metric Units of Measure for Reporting Properties ofRefractory Materials1(COMMITTEE C-8 SUPPLEMENT TO E 380)This standard is issued under the fixed designation C899; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year o
2、foriginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. 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 presents the units to be employed forreporti
3、ng the properties of refractories, such as density, crush-ing stress, modulus of rupture, tensile stress, thermalconductivity, and permeability.1.2 For convenience, a table of conversion factors betweeninch-pound units and SI units is included.2.

Significance and Use3.1 This practice is provided to facilitate comparison ofphysical a
5、nd mechanical properties of refractory materials byestablishing uniform presentation of data.3.2 Units have been chosen, where possible, to result innumbers of magnitude familiar in the refractories industry, thatis, g/cm3rather than the SI preferred unit kg/m3.Itisrecommended that SI prefixes be se
6、lected for use with the unitssuch that the resulting numerical values lie between 0.1 and1000. For most properties, the prefixes kilo (k) and mega (M)are preferred. Other prefixes are given in the following table:MultiplicationFactor Prefix Symbol109106gigamegaGM103102kilohectoAkh101101dekaAdeciAdad

For uniformity, they havebeen presented to four decimal places. In use, the

Thus, a darcy is not an SIunit. No permeability units are given in E380. Until an SI unitof permeability is adop

Forstress less than 1 MPa, kilopascals (kPa) may be used.NOTE 1Included are bending, crushing, shear, and tensile stress,modulus of rupture, and elastic modulus.4.7 Thermal c
