However, satisfactory operation below the cloud point (or wax appearance point) may be achieved depending 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
27、 upon between the fuel supplier andpurchaser for the intended use and expected ambient temperatures. Test Methods D4539 and 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 fe

Due to fuel deliverysystem, engine design, and test method differences, low temperature operability tests may not provide the same degree of protection in various vehicle operating classes.Tenth percentile minimum air temperatures for U.S. locations are provid

30、lculated cetane index approximation, Test Method D4737, is not applicable to biodiesel blends.GLow 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 ceta
31、ne, 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.HThese test methods are specified in 40 CFR Part 80.IIf the diesel fuel is qualifi
32、ed under Table 1 of Specification D975 for lubricity, it is not necessary to measure the lubricity of the blend.
