Summary of Test Method4.1 The sample, maintained at a temp

19、erature of 24C (75F)is blown with air at a constant rate for 5 min, then allowed tosettle for 10 min. The volume of foam is measured at the endof both periods. The test is repeated on a second sample at93.5C (200F), and then, after collapsing the foam, at 24C(75F).5. Significance and Use5.1 The tend

20、ency of oils to foam can be a serious problemin systems such as high-speed gearing, high-volume pumping,and splash lubrication. Inadequate lubrication, cavitation, andoverflow loss of lubricant can lead to mechanical failure. Thistest method is used in the evaluation of oils for such operatingcondit

21、ions.6. Apparatus6.1 Foaming Test Apparatus, an example of a suitableset-up is shown in Fig. 1, consisting of a 1000-mL graduatedcylinder or cylinders (meeting Specification E 1272 class Btolerance requirement of 66 mL and at least graduations of 10mL) held in position when placed in the baths, such

22、 as fittedwith a heavy ring or clamp assembly to overcome the buoy-ancy, and an air-inlet tube, to the bottom of which is fasteneda gas diffuser. The gas diffuser can be either a 25.4-mm (1-in.)diameter spherical gas diffuser stone3,4made of fused crystal-line alumina grain, or a cylindrical metal d

23、iffuser4,5made ofsintered five micron porous stainless steel (Note 1). Thecylinder shall have a diameter such that the distance from theinside bottom to the 1000-mL graduation mark is 360 6 25mm. It shall be circular at the top (Note 2) and shall be fittedwith a stopper, such as those made of rubber

24、, having one holeat the center for the air-inlet tube and a second hole off-centerfor an air-outlet tube. The air-inlet tube shall be adjusted sothat, when the stopper is fitted tightly into the cylinder, the gasdiffuser (Note 3) just touches the bottom of the cylinder and isapproximately at the cen

25、ter of the circular cross section. Gasdiffusers shall meet the following specification when tested inaccordance with the method given in Annex A1:Maximum pore diameter, m Not greater than 80Permeability at pressure of 2.45 kPa (250 mm) water,mL of air/min3000 to 6000NOTE 1Gas diffuser permeability a

26、nd porosity can change during use;therefore, it is recommended that diffusers be tested when new andperiodically thereafter preferably after each use.NOTE 2Graduated cylinders with circular tops can be prepared fromcylinders with pouring spouts by cutting them off below the spouts. Thecut surface is

27、 to be smoothed before use by fire polishing or grinding.3The sole source of supply of the diffuser stones known to the committee at thistime is Norton Co., Industrial Ceramics Div., Worcester, MA 01606, under thedesignation AX536, Alundum porous spheres.4If you are aware of alternative suppliers, p

28、lease provide this information toASTM International Headquarters. Your comments will receive careful consider-ation at a meeting of the responsible technical committee,1which you may attend.5The sole source of supply of the metal diffusers known to the committee at thistime is Petrolab Corp., 874 Al

A convenient arrangement is shown in Fig. 2.NOTE 4It may be necessary to confirm the volume of the cylinder.6.2 Test Baths, large enough to permit the immersion of thecylinder at least to the 900-mL mark and capable of beingmaintained at temperatures constant to 0.5C (1F) at 24C(75F) and

31、93.5C (200F), respectively. Both bath (Note 6)and bath liquid shall be clear enough to permit observation ofthe graduations on the cylinder.NOTE 5Air baths may also be utilized for heating purposes. Limiteddata has shown that both liquid and air baths give equivalent results.However, the precision e

32、stimates given in Section 13 are based on usingonly liquid baths.6NOTE 6Heat-resistant cylindrical glass jars approximately 300 mm(12 in.) in diameter and 450 mm (18 in.) in height make satisfactory baths.6.3 Air Supply, from a source capable of maintaining an airflow rate of 94 6 5 mL/min through t

33、he gas diffuser. The airshall be passed through a drying tower 300 mm in heightpacked as follows: just above the constriction place a 20-mmlayer of cotton, then a 180-mm layer of indicating desiccant,and a 20-mm layer of cotton. The cotton serves to hold thedesiccant in place. Refill the tower when

34、the indicatingdesiccant begins to show presence of moisture. A flowmetersensitive to the required tolerances can be used to measure theair flow (Note 7).NOTE 7A manometer type flowmeter, in which the capillary betweenthe two arms of the U-tube is approximately 0.4 mm in diameter and 16mm in length,

The air shall be passed through at least one loop ofco

36、pper tubing placed around the inside circumference of thecold bath so that the volume measurement is made at approxi-mately 24C (75F). Precautions are to be taken to avoid leaksat any point in the system.NOTE 8Alternatively,a1Lcylinder (with 10 mL graduation marks)full of water is inverted in a tall

37、, large beaker also filled with water. Thereshould be no air bubbles inside. Air leaving the copper loop in the bath isconnected below the cylinder. When the test is started, air will flow intothe cylinder, displacing the water. At the end of the test, the volume of airin the cylinder is measured by

38、 equalizing the water levels inside andoutside the cylinder.Alternatively, the total volume of air passed would bethe difference between the final and the initial volumes of water in thecylinder.NOTE 9Awet test meter calibrated in hundredths of a litre is suitable.6.4 Timer, graduated and accurate t
