Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method describes the use of instrumen
23、tation,equipment, and operational procedures necessary for the mea-surement and calculation of the average velocity of air or gasflows in flues, ducts, or stacks utilizing the pitot tube principle,with a manometer or draft gauge for pressure measurement.The stack gas composition and moisture content
24、 are deter-mined, using an Orsat analyzer for composition, and conden-sation techniques for moisture.5. Significance and Use5.1 The procedures presented in this test method are avail-able, in part, in Test Method D 3685/D 3685M, as well as theASME Methods given in 2.3 and Footnote 8,5the CFR givenin
25、 2.4, and the publication given in Footnote 9.66. Apparatus6.1 Pitot Tube, used in conjunction with a suitable manom-eter, provides the method for determining the velocity in aduct. The construction of a standard pitot tube and the methodof connecting it to a draft gauge are shown in Fig. 1. Details
26、 areshown in Fig. 2.6.1.1 To minimize the stem effect when the physical dimen-sions of the pitot tube are too large with respect to the flowscale, the diameter of the pitot tube barrel shall not exceed130the size of the duct diameter.6.1.2 At locations where the standard pitot tube cannot beused in
27、accordance with the sampling plan (see 8.1), or wheredust or moisture or both are present that may clog the smallholes in this instrument, a calibrated Staubscheibe pitot tube,commonly called a Type “S” pitot tube, shown in Fig. 3, shallbe used.6.1.3 The Type “S” pitot tube may be used in all applic
28、a-tions, provided that it has been calibrated. See Practice D 3796.5Colen, P., Corey, R. C., and Meyers, J.

30、illed inclinedmanometer or an equivalent device used to measure thevelocity head. See Fig. 1. It is equipped with a 250 mm (10 in.)water column inclined manometer that has 0.25 mm (0.01 in.)divisions on the 0-to-25 mm (1 in.) inclined scale, and 2.5 mm(0.1 in.) divisions on the 25 to 250-mm (1 to 10
31、-in.) verticalscale. This type manometer (or other gauge of equivalentsensitivity) is satisfactory for measurements of Dp values aslow as 12.5 Pa (0.05 in. H2O).6.3 U-Tube ManometerA water or mercury filled instru-ment capable of measuring stack pressures to within 0.33 kPa(2.5 mm Hg).6.4 Thermocoup

35、s stream contains over 2 % moisture by volume. The mainconsideration is that the condenser volume be kept to theminimum size because it will be more difficult to purge thesample train before collecting a sample if the condenser is toolarge. A 63-mm (0.25-in.) stainless steel coil, or equivalent,conn
36、ected to a water collection chamber with a capacity ofabout 40 mL is sufficient.6.6.3 ValveA needle valve to adjust the sample gas flowrate.6.6.4 PumpA leak-free diaphragm pump, to transport thesample gas to the flexible bag.

The Orsat gasanalyzer is used to analyze the gas sample for CO2,O2, and COstack gas concentrations, by successively passing the gasthrough adsorbents that remove the specific gaseo
40、us compo-nents. The difference in gas volumes before and after theabsorptions represents the amount of constituent gas in thesample.6.6.8.1 The analyzer shown in Fig. 5 includes a glass buretto measure the gas volume of the sample, a water jacket tomaintain constant temperature, a manifold to contro

42、in.) is satisfactory. For lower CO2values orfor O2values 15 %, a buret with 0.1 mL divisions withspacings of 1 mm shall be used.6.6.8.3 The analyzer shall be leak-tested before and aftereach test, as described in 9.4.1.1.6.7 Gas Moisture Measuring Equipment See Fig. 6.6.7.1 ProbeSee 6.6.1.6.7.1.1 Pr
