Summary of Test Method4.1 The sample is burned
17、in an enclosed wick-fed lamp that is calibrated against pure hydrocarbon blends of known smokepoint. The maximum height of flame that can be achieved with the test fuel without smoking is determined to the nearest 0.5 mmwith the manual apparatus and by the manual and automated apparatus is reported
18、to the nearest 0.1 mm with the automatedapparatus.0.1 mm.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides an indication of the relative smoke producing properties of kerosineskerosenes and aviationturbine fuels in a diffusion flame.The smoke point is related to the hydrocarbon type composition o
19、f such fuels. Generally the morearomatic the fuel the smokier the flame. A high smoke point indicates a fuel of low smoke producing tendency.5.2 The smoke point is quantitatively related to the potential radiant heat transfer from the combustion products of the fuel.Because radiant heat transfer exe
20、rts a strong influence on the metal temperature of combustor liners and other hot section parts ofgas turbines, the smoke point provides a basis for correlation of fuel characteristics with the life of these components.6.

Preparation of ApparatusManual Apparatus9.1 Place the lamp in a vertical position in a room where it can be completely protected from drafts. Carefully inspect each newlamp to ensure that the a
31、ir holes in the gallery and the air inlets to the candle holder are all clean, unrestricted, and of proper size.The gallery shall be so located that the air holes are completely unobstructed.NOTE 2Slight variations in these items all have a marked effect on the precision of the result obtained.FIG.
32、1 Smoke Point Lamp (Manual)D1322 1839.1.1 If the room is not completely draft-free, place the lamp in a vertical position in a box constructed of heat-resistant material(not containing asbestos), open at the front. The top of the box shall be at least 150 mm 150 mm above the top of the chimneyand th
33、e inside of the box painted dull black.Automated Apparatus9.2 Prepare the apparatus according to the manufacturers instructions.9.3 Extract all wicks, either new or from a previous determination, for at least 25 cycles in an extractor, using a mixture of equalvolumes of toluene and anhydrous methano
34、l. Allow the wicks to dry partially in a hood before placing in the oven, or use aforced-draft and explosion-proof oven for drying wicks, or both. Dry for 30 min 30 min at 100100 C to 110C,110 C, and storein a dessicator until used.9.3.1 Extracted wicks are commercially available and may be used, pr
35、ovided that they have been certified as being extractedby the procedure outlined in 9.3. Store purchased extracted wicks in a desiccator over desiccant until use. After use, extract thesewicks as in 9.3 before using again.10. Calibration of ApparatusManual Apparatus10.1 Confirm calibration of the ap
36、paratus in accordance with 10.1.3 or calibrate, if needed, in accordance with 10.1.1 prior tofirst use of the day. Recalibrate when there has been a change in the apparatus or operator, or when a change of more than 0.7 kPa0.7 kPa occurs in the barometric pressure reading.10.1.1 Calibrate the appara
37、tus by testing two of the reference fuel blends specified in 7.4, using the procedure specified inSection 11 and, if possible, bracketing the smoke point of the sample. If this is not possible, use the two test blends having theirsmoke points nearest to the smoke point of the sample.10.1.2 Determine
38、 the correction factor, f, for the apparatus from the equation:FIG. 2 Smoke Point Principle (Automated)TABLE 1 Reference Fuel BlendsStandard Smoke Point at101.3 kPa Toluene 2,2,4-trimethylpentanemm % (V/V) % (V/V)14.7 40 6020.2 25 7522.7 20 8025.8 15 8530.2 10 9035.4 5 9542.8 0 100D1322 184f 5A s A

40、he smoke point determined for the test fuel exactly matches the smoke point determined for a reference fuel blend, use asthe second bracketing reference fuel the reference fuel blend with the next higher smoke point, if there is one. Otherwise, use theone with the next closest smoke point.10.1.3 An
41、alternative approach to confirm calibration of the apparatus is for each operator to run a control sample each day theapparatus is in use. Record the results and compare the average from the database of the control sample using control charts orequivalent statistical techniques. If the difference ex
42、ceeds the control limits or when new apparatus is used, then the apparatus mustbe recalibrated.Automated Apparatus10.2 The apparatus shall have a calibration database for the storage of the reference fuel blends values specified in Table 1. Eachcalibration test performed with the reference fuel blen
43、ds shall be stored in this database in addition with the barometric pressureobserved at the moment the calibration was performed.10.2.1 The apparatus shall have the capability to automatically calculate the correction factor f according to Eq 1 byautomatically selecting in its calibration database t
44、he reference fuel blends values specified in Table 1, using the procedurespecified in Section 11 and the calculation specified in Section 12 and, if possible, bracketing the smoke point of the sample. Ifthis is not possible, it shall use the two test blend results having their smoke points nearest t
45、o the smoke point of the sample.NOTE 3The digital camera and the associated software replace the operator eyes for the observation of the flame. Consequently it is not necessaryto recalibrate the apparatus when there has been a change in the operator.10.2.2 Record the barometric pressure and check i
46、n the calibration database that the instrument has been calibrated at thatrecorded pressure 60.7 kPa. 60.7 kPa. If no calibration values exist for the seven blends specified in Table 1 at the pressureobserved 60.7 kPa, 60.7 kPa, calibrate the apparatus in accordance with 10.2.3. If calibration value
47、s exist for the seven blendsspecified in Table 1, in other words, if the instrument has been already calibrated at the pressure observed, check the apparatusin accordance with 10.2.4.NOTE 4Because the automated apparatus stores the smoke points obtained with the reference fuels at different barometr
48、ic pressures, it is not necessaryto recalibrate the apparatus when a change of more than 0.7 kPa 0.7 kPa occurs in the barometric pressure reading. Depending on the barometric pressureentered at the test initiation, the apparatus will automatically use the correct stored values obtained with the fue
49、l blends. If the correct values are not yetstored, the apparatus will prompt the operator in order to perform the calibration at the pressure observed.10.2.3 Calibrate the apparatus by testing the seven reference fuel blends specified in 7.4, using the procedure specified inSection 11.10.2.4 At regular intervals of not more than seven days or when there has been a change in the apparatus, verify that theapparatus is performing properly by using a quality control (QC) sample that is representative of the fuel(s) routinely teste
