Summary of Test Method4.1 Sequence IA portion of sample, maintained at a bath temperature of 24

24、C 6 0.5 C is blown with air at a constant rate(94 mLmin 6 5 mLmin ) for 5 min, then allowed to settle for 10 min (unless the case described in 3.2.2.1 applies, in which case,the time duration can be shortened). The volume of foam is measured at the end of both periods.4.2 Sequence IIAsecond portion

25、of sample, maintained at a bath temperature of 93.5 C 60.5 C, 6 0.5 C, is analyzed usingthe same air flow rate and blowing and settling time duration as indicated in 4.1.4.3 Sequence IIIThe sample portion used in conducting Sequence II is used for Sequence III, where any remaining foam iscollapsed a

26、nd the sample portion temperature cooled below 43.5 C by allowing the test cylinder to stand in air at roomtemperature, before placing the cylinder in the bath maintained at 24 C 6 0.5 C. The same air flow rate and blowing and settlingtime duration as indicated in 4.1 is followed.D892 1825. Signific

27、ance and Use5.1 The tendency of oils to foam can be a serious problem in systems such as high-speed gearing, high-volume pumping, andsplash lubrication. Inadequate lubrication, cavitation, and overflow loss of lubricant can lead to mechanical failure. This testmethod is used in the evaluation of oil

28、s for such operating conditions.6. Apparatus6.1 Foaming Test Apparatus, an example of a suitable set-up is shown in Fig. 1, consisting of a 1000 mL graduated cylinderor cylinders (meeting Specification E1272 class B tolerance requirement of 66 mL and at least graduations of 10 mL) held inposition wh

29、en placed in the baths, such as fitted with a heavy ring or clamp assembly to overcome the buoyancy, and an air-inlettube, to the bottom of which is fastened a gas diffuser. The gas diffuser can be either a 25.4 mm (1 in.) diameter spherical gasdiffuser stone made of fused crystalline alumina grain,

30、 or a cylindrical metal diffuser made of sintered five micron porous stainlesssteel (Note 1). The cylinder shall have a diameter such that the distance from the inside bottom to the 1000 mL graduation markis 360 mm 6 25 mm. It shall be circular at the top (Note 2) and shall be fitted with a stopper,

31、 such as those made of rubber, havingone hole at the center for the air-inlet tube and a second hole off-center for an air-outlet tube. The air-inlet tube shall be adjustedso that, when the stopper is fitted tightly into the cylinder, the gas diffuser (Note 3) just touches the bottom of the cylinder

32、 andis approximately at the center of the circular cross section. Gas diffusers 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 6000N

33、OTE 1Gas diffuser permeability and porosity can change during use; therefore, it is recommended that diffusers be tested when new and periodicallythereafter preferably after each use.NOTE 2Graduated cylinders with circular tops can be prepared from cylinders with pouring spouts by cutting them off b

34、elow the spouts. The cutsurface is to be smoothed before use by fire polishing or grinding.NOTE 3Gas diffusers may be attached to air-inlet tubes by any suitable means. 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 e

35、nough to permit the immersion of the cylinder at least to the 900 mL mark and capable of beingmaintained at temperatures constant to 0.5 C (1 F) at 24 C (75 F) and 93.5 C (200 F), respectively. Both bath (Note 6) andbath liquid shall be clear enough to permit observation of the graduations on the cy

36、linder.NOTE 5Air baths may also be utilized for heating purposes. Limited data has shown that both liquid and air baths give equivalent results. However,the precision estimates given in Section 13 are based on using only liquid baths.3NOTE 6Heat-resistant cylindrical glass jars approximately 300 mm

37、(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 air flow rate of 94 mLmin 6 5 mLmin through the gas diffuser. Ifthe dew point of the air supply does not meet the 60 C or lower requirements as stated in 7.3, the air sh

Refill the tower when theindicating desiccant begins to show presence of moisture. The use of the drying tower described above is

40、 optional if the dew pointof the air supply meets the 60 C or lower requirements as stated in 7.3. A flowmeter sensitive to the required tolerances can beused to measure the air flow (Note 7).NOTE 7A manometer type flowmeter, in which the capillary between the two arms of the U-tube is approximately

41、 0.4 mm in diameter and 16 mmin length, and in which n-butylphthalate is the manometric liquid, is suitable.6.3.1 The total volume of air leaving the foaming test apparatus shall be measured by a volume measuring device (Note 9)capable of accurately measuring gas volumes of about 470 mL. The air sha

42、ll be passed through at least one loop of copper tubingplaced around the inside circumference of the cold bath so that the volume measurement is made at approximately 24 C (75 F).Precautions are to be taken to avoid leaks at any point in the system.NOTE 8Alternatively, a 1 Lcylinder (with 10 mLgradu

43、ation marks) full of water is inverted in a tall, large beaker also filled with water. There shouldbe no air bubbles inside. Air leaving the copper loop in the bath is connected below the cylinder. When the test is started, air will flow into the cylinder,displacing the water. At the end of the test

44、, the volume of air in the cylinder is measured by equalizing the water levels inside and outside the cylinder.Alternatively, the total volume of air passed would be the difference between the final and the initial volumes of water in the cylinder.NOTE 9A wet test meter calibrated in hundredths of a

45、 litre is suitable.6.4 Timer, graduated and accurate to 1 s or better.6.5 Temperature Sensing Device, capable of covering the temperature range from at least 20 C to 100 C, with an accuracy of60.5 C.
