1、Designation: D7215 16Standard Test Method forCalculated Flash Point from Simulated Distillation Analysisof Distillate Fuels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7215; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision,
2、the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the calculated flash pointformula, which represents a means for directly estimati
3、ng theflash point temperature of distillate fuels from Test MethodD2887 data. The value computed from the equation is termedthe “calculated flash point.” The calculated flash point formulais applicable to diesel fuel samples based on a correlation toTest Method D93 over the range from 47 C to 99 C,
4、and to jetfuel samples based on a correlation to Test Method D56 andTest Method D3828 over the range from 35 C to 67 C.1.2 The calculated flash point formula is valid for diesel andjet fuels with an IBP between 90 C and 162 C (194 F and324 F), Test Method D2887 5 % recovery temperature be-tween 136
5、C and 207 C (277 F and 405 F), and TestMethod D2887 10 % recovery temperature between 142 Cand 222 C (288 F and 432 F). For each flash point testmethod (Test Method D56, Test Method D93, and Test MethodD3828) a separate equation has been established. See 4.4 for adetailed overview of the simulated d
6、istillation IBP, 5 %, and10 % ranges per equation.1.3 A calculated diagnostic parameter, not exceeding agiven threshold value, is a prerequisite for acceptance of thecalculated flash point.1.4 The diagnostic parameter MSPEX(Mean SummedPrediction Error) checks the sample compliance, based onreconstru
7、ction of TIBP,T5%, and T10 %of the sample, via acalculation procedure. A value for MSPEXnot exceeding thethreshold level of 1.9 C is a prerequisite for accepting thecalculated flash point, CFP.NOTE 1It is important to note that calculated flash point results, at thistime, are not recognized by regul
8、atory organizations in verifying confor-mance to applicable regulations.NOTE 2The calculated flash point derived from simulated distillationdata depends upon the accuracy of determination of the IBP temperatureand the 5 % and 10 % recovery temperatures.NOTE 3If the users specification requires a def
9、ined flash point testmethod other than this test method, neither this test method nor any othertest method should be substituted for the prescribed test method withoutobtaining comparative data and an agreement from the specifier.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.

Significance and Use4.1 The flash point temperature is one measure of thetendency of the test specimen to form a flammable mixturewith air under controlled labo
20、ratory conditions. It is only oneof a number of properties that must be considered in assessingthe overall flammability hazard of a material.4.2 Flash point is used in shipping and safety regulations todefine flammable and combustible materials. Consult theparticular regulation involved for precise
21、definitions of theseclassifications.4.3 Flash point can indicate the possible presence of highlyvolatile and flammable materials in a relatively non-volatile ornon-flammable material.4.4 In cases where Test Method D2887 data are available,that is, for determination of boiling range distribution orca
22、lculation of other physical properties, this test methodprovides a calculation method for flash point without perform-ing an additional analysis. Table 1 shows the ranges for theIBP, 5 %, and 10 % results for each equation.4.5 In the case where the flash point of a fuel has beeninitially established
23、, the calculated flash point is useful as aflash point check on subsequent samples of that fuel, providedits source and mode of manufacture remain unchanged.5.
