Summary of Test Method4.1 The supercharge method rating of a fuel is determinedby comparing the knock-limited power of the sample to thosefor bracketin
18、g blends of reference fuels under standard oper-ating conditions. Testing is performed at fixed compressionratio by varying the intake manifold pressure and fuel flowrate, and measuring IMEP at a minimum of six points to definethe mixture response curves, IMEP versus fuel-air ratio, for thesample an
19、d reference fuels. The knock-limited power for thesample is bracketed between those for two adjacent referencefuels, and the rating for the sample is calculated by interpola-tion of the IMEP at the fuel-air ratio which produces maximumpower (IMEP) for the lower bracketing reference fuel.5.
