30、units for the 60 geometry.Note 3To determine the scale value:7.1.1.1 Calculate the first surface Fresnel reflectance (seeTest Method D2457) for nD= 1.567. The specular angle is 60.The calculated value is 10.0056 % or 100.0 units.7.1.1.2 Assign this the full scale value of 100.0 units (seeTest Method
31、 D523).7.1.1.3 Repeat the calculation for nD= 1.527. Using thesame specular angle of 60, the calculated value is 9.3636 % or93.6 units.7.1.1.4 The new scale value for the working black, glassstandard for 60 is 100 (9.3626/10.0056) = 0.9357 or 93.6units.7.2 Verification StandardsDe-polished, opaque,
32、blackglasses and ceramic tiles having uniform, planar surfaces aresuitable for verification standards when calibrated against aprimary or working standard on an image clarity meter knownto meet the requirements of the test method.8.

Calculation9.1 Calculate the image clarity value from the maximumand the minimum light intensities, which the photo-receivermeasures, using Eq 6 (see Fig. 2 and Fig. 3):C 5M 2 mM1m3100 (6)where:C = image clarity value, %,M = maximum light intensity, andm =
36、 minimum light intensity.5Wyszecki, G. and Stiles, W. S., Color Science: Concepts and Methods,Quantitative Data and Formulae, Second ed., John Wiley and Sons, New York,1982, p. 52FIG. 2 Wave FormStandardizationD5767 1739.2 When the test specimen has a completely flat andsmooth surface and the shutte
37、r is slid laterally, the reflectedimage of the slit at the sliding combed shutter passes com-pletely through the space of the comb when the center of thecomb space coincides with the image. This generates amaximum light intensity on the photo-receiver. When notcompletely flat and smooth, depending o
38、n the degree ofdispersion of the light, the image cannot pass through the combcompletely and generates a minimum light intensity. Thesemaximum and minimum light intensities are used to calculatethe image clarity value.9.3 The instrument calculates and displays the image clarityvalue, C, directly.10.
