Summary of Method3.1 The gaseous impact test system is designed to exposematerial specimens or small components/elements to high-velocity (dynamic) gaseous impact environments. The basicc
10、onfiguration consists of a high-pressure accumulator, a high-speed pressurization (impact) valve, test system pressurizationlines, test chamber/fixture, test chamber purge and vent sys-tems, and a valve sequencer/control device. Fig. 1 is aschematic of a typical test system.3.2 The general procedure
11、 is to prepare the test specimen,record significant pretest data, and place the test specimen inthe test chamber. The test specimen is then subjected tosequential gaseous impacts by alternately opening and closingthe test chamber pressurization (impact) and vent valves. Thetest data obtained may inc
12、lude test chamber pressures andtemperatures, test chamber pressure rise times, pressurizationand vent valve actuation times, and sequence times. The testspecimen is then removed and examined for any significantchanges and evidence of reactions. Pertinent data are recorded.The test is repeated using
13、a fresh specimen for each impact testcycle until the desired user-selected criteria are met.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test evaluates the relative sensitivity of materials todynamic pressure impacts by various gaseous fluid media (mayinclude mixtures of gases).4.2 Any change or variations in te
14、st specimen configura-tions, thickness, preparation, and cleanliness may cause asignificant change in impact sensitivity/reaction.4.3 A reaction is indicated by an abrupt increase in testspecimen temperature or by obvious changes in odor, color, ormaterial appearance, or a combination thereof, as ob

18、given pressureare:4.4.1 Each specimen is subjected to five impacts.4.4.2 A material passes if no reactions occur in 20 succes-sive samples.4.4.3 A material fails if one reaction occurs in a maximumof 20 or fewer successive samples.4.5 Materials may be ranked by the maximum pressure(pressure threshol
19、d) at which they pass the test.4.6 Material acceptance may be on the basis of passing at aselected pressure.5. Apparatus5.1 A typical gaseous impact test system used for determin-ing the sensitivity of materials to gaseous impact (adiabaticcompression) is schematically depicted in Fig. 1. Details of
20、 thistypical test system are depicted in Figs. 2-5. The major testsystem components are described as follows:5.1.1 The accumulator provides gaseous test fluid storageand is precharged to the desired test pressure (potential energyhead). The capacity requirement is dependent on the testchamber and li
21、ne size and the number of impacts required pertest sequence. It is sized to limit static head loss to less than4 % of initial pressure during any test sequence.5.1.2 The test chamber shall be pressurized from the baseline pressure value (normally atmospheric ambient pressure) to95 % of test pressure
22、 in not less than 10 nor more than 50 ms.This range is not to be construed to be an acceptable variationin any one system, but is the pressure rise time range permittedamong different systems. The average pressure rise time of agiven system shall vary not more than 620 % at a given testpressure duri
23、ng the operational life of the system nor vary morethan 63 ms for a given test set of 20 impacts.5.1.3 The fluid lines between the accumulator and pressur-ization valve shall be sized to minimize flow losses and enablepressurization of test chamber in accordance with 5.1.2. Theselines shall contain
24、an isolation valve to provide a safety factorfor system operation. The isolation valve shall have a flowfactor at least equal to the pressurization (impact) valve.5.1.4 The test chamber vent valve shall be sized to allow thetest chamber pressure to decay to atmospheric pressure be-tween impacts.NOTE
25、 1The ability of a given gaseous impact test system to rankmaterials is based on two basic parameters: the test chamber pressuriza-tion rate and the accumulator pressure. There may be variations in the testchamber pressurization rate of different test systems at a given test(accumulator) pressure; h
26、owever, the test chamber pressurization rate of agiven test system shall be maintained within the limits specified in5.1.2-5.1.4. If these limits are maintained, a test system should be able torank materials. For example, a properly functioning test system shouldrank most batches of chloroprene rubb
27、ers below most batches of vi-nylidene fluoride hexafluoropropylene rubbers, which should rank belowmost batches of polytetrafluoroethylene polymers. This ranking cannot,however, be considered absolute due to material batch differences im-posed by contamination, differences in types and amounts of mo
28、ld releaseagents, differences in cures, etc.5.1.5 The inside diameter and the length of the pressuriza-tion line to the test chamber are critical. This section alsocontains a six-way cross for purge, vent, and instrumentationline connections. All line sections between the accumulator andthe test cha
29、mber shall be straight and smooth to minimize flowlosses. Dimensions of the lines and six-way cross for a typicaltest system are shown in Fig. 2.5.1.6 The gaseous impact test chamber subassembly isconfigured to hold and position the test specimen.
