1、Designation: D 7549 09Standard Test Method forEvaluation of Heavy-Duty Engine Oils under High OutputConditionsCaterpillar C13 Test Procedure1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7549; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the
2、case of revision, 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.INTRODUCTIONAny properly equipped laboratory, without outside assistance, can use the test procedure
3、 describedin this test method. The ASTM Test Monitoring Center (TMC)2provides calibration and anassessment of the test results obtained on those oils by the laboratory. By this means the laboratorywill know whether its use of the test method gives results statistically similar to those obtained byot
4、her laboratories. Furthermore, various agencies require that a laboratory utilizes the TMC servicesin seeking qualification of oils against specifications. For example, the U.S. Army has such arequirement in some of its engine oil specifications. Accordingly, this test method is written for thoselab
5、oratories that use the TMC services. Laboratories that choose not to use these services shouldignore those portions of the test method that refer to the TMC. Information letters2issued periodicallyby the TMC may modify this test method. In addition the TMC may issue supplementary memorandarelated to

Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method uses a Caterpillar production C13diesel engine (see Annex A3 for ordering information and listof engine build parts). Test operation includes a 60-min enginewarm-up and break-in, followed by a 4-h cool down and valvela
35、sh adjustment. After the valve lash adjustment and any otherneeded adjustments, a 500-h test is begun. The engine isoperated under steady-state, rated-power conditions known togenerate excessive piston deposits or oil consumption or bothin field service. Report the total engine oil consumption as th
36、esum of the measured volumes in 50-h increments.4.2 Equip the test stand with the appropriate instrumentationto control engine speed, fuel flow, and other operating param-eters.4.3 Determine the engine oil performance by assessingpiston deposits and ring sticking, and oil consumption.4.3.1 Prior to
37、each test, clean and assemble the engine withnew cylinder liners, pistons, piston rings, bearings and certainvalve train components. All aspects of the assembly arespecified. After the test, dismantle the engine and examine andrate the parts.4.3.2 A sample of engine oil is removed and an oil additio
38、nis made at the end of each 50-h period. The volume of the oiladdition is the sum of the volume of sample plus the volume ofoil consumed by the engine.5.

It is an electronically controlled, turbo-charged, after-cooled, direct injected, six cylinder diesel enginewith an
42、 in-block camshaft and a four-valve per cylinderarrangement. The engine uses CaterpillarsACERT technologyfeaturing multiple injections per cycle and inlet valve actuationcontrol. It features a 2004 US EPA emissions configurationwith electronic control of fuel metering, fuel injection timingand inlet
43、 valve actuation timing. Critical parts that can affectpiston deposit formation are specified for oil test engine use.See Annex A3 for source of the test engine and critical andnon-critical parts.6.1.2 Oil Heat Exchanger and Oil Heat SystemReplacethe standard Caterpillar oil heat exchanger core with
44、 a stainlesssteal core, Caterpillar P/N 1Y-4026. Additionally install aremotely mounted heat exchanger. Control the oil temperaturewith a dedicated cooling loop and control system which isseparate from the engine coolant (see Annex A12). Ensure thatthe oil cooler bypass valve is blocked closed.6.1.3
