33、E) for diesel engines - Requirements and testmethods83. General3.1 This specification, unless otherwise provided, prescribesthe required properties of aviation turbine fuel at the time andplace of delivery.4. Classification4.1 Two types of aviation turbine fuels are provided, asfollows:4.1.1 Jet A a
34、nd Jet A-1Relatively high flash point distil-lates of the kerosine type.4.2 Jet A and Jet A-1 represent two grades of kerosine fuelthat differ in freezing point. Other grades would be suitablyidentified.4.3 This specification previously cited the requirements forJet B. Requirements for Jet B fuel no
35、w appear in SpecificationD6615.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 Aviation turbine fuel is a complex mixture predomi-nantly composed of hydrocarbons and varies depending oncrude source and manufacturing process. Consequently, it isimpossible to define the exact composition of Jet A/A-1. Thisspecificati
36、on has therefore evolved primarily as a performancespecification rather than a compositional specification. It isacknowledged that this largely relies on accumulated experi-ence; therefore the specification limits aviation turbine fuels tothose made from conventional sources or by specificallyapprov
37、ed processes.5.1.1 Aviation turbine fuel, except as otherwise specified inthis specification, shall consist predominantly of refined hydro-carbons (see Note 1) derived from conventional sourcesincluding crude oil, natural gas liquid condensates, heavy oil,shale oil, and oil sands. The use of jet fue
38、l blends containingcomponents from other sources is permitted only in accordancewith Annex A1.NOTE 1Conventionally refined jet fuel contains trace levels of mate-rials that are not hydrocarbons, including oxygenates, organosulfur, andnitrogenous compounds.5.1.2 Fuels used in certified engines and ai
39、rcraft are ulti-mately approved by the certifying authority subsequent toformal submission of evidence to the authority as part of thetype certification program for that aircraft and engine model.Additives to be used as supplements to an approved fuel mustalso be similarly approved on an individual
40、basis (see X1.2.4and X1.15.1).5.2 AdditivesMay be added to each type of aviationturbine fuel in the amount and of the composition specified inTable 2 or the following list of approved material:5.2.1 Other additives are permitted under 5.1 and 7.1. Theseinclude fuel performance enhancing additives an
41、d fuel handingand maintenance additives as found under Table 2. Thequantities and types must be declared by the fuel supplier andagreed to by the purchaser. Only additives approved by theaircraft certifying authority are permitted in the fuel on whichan aircraft is operated.5.2.1.1 Biocidal additive
42、s are available for controlled usage.Where such an additive is used in the fuel, the approval statusof the additive and associated conditions must be checked forthe specific aircraft and engines to be operated.5.2.1.2 Fuel System Icing Inhibitor:(1) Diethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether (DiEGME), con-f
43、orming to the requirements of Specification D4171, Type III,may be used in concentrations of 0.10 to 0.15 volume %.(2) Test Method D5006 may be used to determine theconcentration of DiEGME in aviation fuels.5.3 Incidental MaterialsIncidental materials are chemi-cals and compositions that can occur i
44、n turbine fuels as a resultof production, processing, distribution, or storage. Table 3 listsspecific materials that have an agreed limit. SpecificationD1655 does not require that each batch of fuel be analyzed forincidental materials. Further guidance concerning these mate-rials is presented in X1.
45、16.5.4 Guidance material is presented in Appendix X2 con-cerning the need to control processing additives in jet fuelproduction.6. Detailed Requirements6.1 The aviation turbine fuel shall conform to the require-ments prescribed in Table 1.6.2 Test results shall not exceed the maximum or be lessthan
46、the minimum values specified in Table 1. No allowanceshall be made for the precision of the test methods. Todetermine conformance to the specification requirement, a testresult may be rounded to the same number of significant figuresas in Table 1 using Practice E29. Where multiple determina-tions ar
47、e made, the average result, rounded in accordance withPractice E29, shall be used.7. Workmanship, Finish and Appearance7.1 The aviation turbine fuel specified in this specificationshall be visually free of undissolved water, sediment, andsuspended matter. The odor of the fuel shall not be nauseating
48、or irritating. If the fuel has an odor similar to that of “rottenegg,” please refer to X1.12.5 for further discussion. Nosubstance of known dangerous toxicity under usual conditionsof handling and use shall be present, except as permitted in thisspecification.8. Sampling8.1 Because of the importance
49、 of proper sampling proce-dures in establishing fuel quality, use the appropriate proce-dures in Practice D4057 to obtain a representative sample fromthe batch of fuel for specification compliance testing. Thisrequirement is met by producing fuel as a discrete batch thentesting it for specification compliance. This requirement is notsatisfied by averaging online analysis results.8.2 A number of jet fuel properties, including thermalstability, water separation, electrical conductivity, and others,are very sensitive to trace contamination, which can originate8Avail
