15、 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, United States.3.2.1.1 DiscussionWhen a diffuser is immersed in aliquid, air can be trapped in the pores. It can escape eventuallyor as soon as a pressure is applied to the diffuser. When testingfor maximum pore diameter (Annex A1) th

16、e escape of suchbubble shall be ignored.3.2.2 foam stability, nin foam testing, the amount of foamremaining at the specified time following the disconnecting ofthe air supply.3.2.2.1 DiscussionIn this test method, foam stability isdetermined from measurements made 10 min 6 10 s afterdisconnecting th

17、e air supply. In cases after the air supply hasbeen disconnected, where the foam collapses to 0 mL beforethe 10 min settling time has elapsed, the test may be terminatedand the foam stability result recorded as 0 mL.3.2.3 foaming tendency, nin foam testing, the amount offoam determined from measurem

18、ents made immediately afterthe cessation of air flow.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Sequence IA portion of sample, maintained at a bathtemperature of 24 6 0.5C is blown with air at a constant rate(94 6 5 mL/min ) for 5 min, then allowed to settle for 10 min(unless the case described in 3.2.2.1 applies

19、, in which case, thetime duration can be shortened). The volume of foam ismeasured at the end of both periods.4.2 Sequence IIAsecond portion of sample, maintained ata bath temperature of 93.5 60.5C, is analyzed using the sameair flow rate and blowing and settling time duration asindicated in 4.1.4.3

20、 Sequence IIIThe sample portion used in conductingSequence II is used for Sequence III, where any remainingfoam is collapsed and the sample portion temperature cooledbelow 43.5C by allowing the test cylinder to stand in air atroom temperature, before placing the cylinder in the bathmaintained at 24

21、6 0.5C. The same air flow rate and blowingand settling time duration as indicated in 4.1 is followed.5. Significance and Use5.1 The tendency of oils to foam can be a serious problemin systems such as high-speed gearing, high-volume pumping,and splash lubrication. Inadequate lubrication, cavitation,

22、andoverflow loss of lubricant can lead to mechanical failure. Thistest method is used in the evaluation of oils for such operatingconditions.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 Spec

23、ification E1272 class Btolerance requirement of 66 mL and at least graduations of 10mL) held in position when placed in the baths, such 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 ca

24、n be either a 25.4-mm (1-in.)diameter spherical gas diffuser stone made of fused crystallinealumina grain, or a cylindrical metal diffuser made of sinteredfive micron porous stainless steel (Note 1). The cylinder shallhave a diameter such that the distance from the inside bottomto the 1000-mL gradua

25、tion mark is 360 6 25 mm. It shall becircular at the top (Note 2) and shall be fitted with a stopper,such as those made of rubber, having one hole at the center forthe air-inlet tube and a second hole off-center for an air-outlettube. The air-inlet tube shall be adjusted so that, when thestopper is

26、fitted tightly into the cylinder, the gas diffuser (Note3) just touches the bottom of the cylinder and is approximatelyat the center of the circular cross section. Gas diffusers shallmeet the following specification when tested in accordancewith the method given in Annex A1:Maximum pore diameter, m

27、Not greater than 80Permeability at pressure of 2.45 kPa (250 mm) water,mL of air/min3000 to 6000NOTE 1Gas diffuser permeability and porosity can change during use;therefore, it is recommended that diffusers be tested when new andperiodically thereafter preferably after each use.NOTE 2Graduated cylin

28、ders with circular tops can be prepared fromFIG. 1 Foaming Test ApparatusD892 102cylinders with pouring spouts by cutting them off below the spouts. Thecut surface is to be smoothed before use by fire polishing or grinding.NOTE 3Gas diffusers may be attached to air-inlet tubes by anysuitable means.

29、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 93.5C (200F

30、), 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 estimates gi

31、ven in Section 13 are based on usingonly liquid baths.3NOTE 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 the gas diff

32、user. 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 the indicat

33、ingdesiccant 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, and in whic

34、h n-butylphthalate is the manometric liquid, issuitable.6.3.1 The total volume of air leaving the foaming testapparatus shall be measured by a volume measuring device(Note 9) capable of accurately measuring gas volumes of about470 mL. The air shall be passed through at least one loop ofcopper tubing

35、 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, large bea

36、ker 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 equalizing

37、 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 to1sorbetter

Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Thorough cleansing of the test cylinder and air-inlettube is essential after each use to remove any additiveremaining from previous tests which can seriously interferewith results of subsequent tests.9.1.1 CylinderRinse the cylinder with

48、 heptane.(WarningFlammable, vapor harmful.) Wash the cylinderwith a suitable detergent. Rinse the cylinder, in turn, withdistilled water, then acetone (WarningExtremely flam-mable, vapors can cause a flash fire) and dry in a current of thecompressed air or in a drying oven. Interior walls that drain

49、 thewater cleanly, that is without drops forming, are adequatelycleaned.NOTE 11Certain detergents are notorious for adhering to glass;therefore, it is important to realize that such a circumstance can affect thetest result. Several rinsings with water and acetone may be required.9.1.2 Gas Diffuser and Air TubeClean the gas diffuserwith toluene (solvents with equivalent cleaning and solvencycharacteristics may be substituted for toluene.) and heptane.Immerse the gas diffuser in about 300 mL of toluene.
