In general, cloud point (or wax
44、appearance point)Low Temperature Flow Test, and Cold Filter Plugging Point Test may be useful to estimate vehicle low temperature operability limits but their use with B6 to B20 has notbeen validated. However, satisfactory operation below the cloud point (or wax appearance point) may be achieved dep
45、ending on equipment design, operating conditions,and the use of flow-improver additives as described in X3.1.2. Appropriate low temperature operability properties should be agreed upon between the fuel supplier andpurchaser for the intended use and expected ambient temperatures. Test Methods D4539 a
46、nd D6371 may be especially useful to estimate vehicle low temperatureoperability limits when flow improvers are used but their use with B6 to B20 from a full range of biodiesel feedstock sources has not been validated. Due to fuel deliverysystem, engine design, and test method differences, low tempe

The tenth percentileminimum air temperatures m

49、imation, Test Method D4737, is not applicable to biodiesel blends.HLow ambient temperatures, as well as engine operation at high altitudes, may require the use of fuels with higher cetane ratings. If the diesel fuel is qualified under Table 1of Specification D975 for cetane, it is not necessary to measure the cetane number of the blend. This is because the cetane number of the individual blend componentswill be at least 40, so the resulting blend will also be at least 40 cetane number.IThese test methods are specified in 40 CFR Part 80.JIf t
