4、 single cylinder, four-stroke cycle, variable com-pression ratio, carbureted, CFR engine run in accordance witha defined set of operating conditions. The octane number scaleis defined by the volumetric composition of primary referencefuel blends. The sample fuel knock intensity is compared tothat of

5、 one or more primary reference fuel blends. The octanenumber of the primary reference fuel blend that matches theknock intensity of the sample fuel establishes the Motor octanenumber.1.2 The octane number scale covers the range from 0 to 120octane number, but this test method has a working range fro

Summary of Test Method4.1 The Motor O.N. of a spark-ignition engine fuel isde

43、termined using a standard test engine and operating condi-tions to compare its knock characteristic with those of PRFblends of known O.N. Compression ratio and fuel-air ratio areadjusted to produce standard K.I. for the sample fuel, asmeasured by a specific electronic detonation meter instrumentsyst

44、em. A standard K.I. guide table relates engine C.R. to O.N.level for this specific method. The fuel-air ratio for the samplefuel and each of the PRF blends is adjusted to maximize K.I.for each fuel.4.1.1 The fuel-air ratio for maximum K.I. may be obtained(1) by making incremental step changes in mix

45、ture strength,observing the equilibrium K.I. value for each step, and thenselecting the condition which maximizes the reading or (2)bypicking the maximum K.I. as the mixture strength is changedfrom either rich-to-lean or lean-to-rich at a constant rate.4.2 Bracketing ProceduresThe engine is calibrat

46、ed tooperate at standard K.I. in accordance with the guide table. Thefuel-air ratio of the sample fuel is adjusted to maximize theK.I., and then the cylinder height is adjusted so that standardK.I. is achieved. Without changing cylinder height, two PRFsare selected such that, at their fuel-air ratio

47、 for maximum K.I.,one knocks harder (higher K.I.) and the other softer (lowerK.I.) than the sample fuel. A second set of K.I. measurementsfor sample fuel and reference fuels is required, and the samplefuel O.N. is calculated by interpolation in proportion to thedifferences in average K.I. readings.

48、A final condition requiresthat the cylinder height used shall be within prescribed limitsaround the guide table value for the calculated O.N. Bracketingprocedure ratings may be determined using either the equilib-rium or dynamic fuel-air ratio approach.4.3 C.R. ProcedureA calibration is performed to

49、 establishstandard K.I. using the cylinder height specified by the guidetable for the O.N. of the selected PRF. The fuel-air ratio of thesample fuel is adjusted to maximize the K.I. under equilibriumconditions; the cylinder height is adjusted so that standard K.I.is achieved. The calibration is reconfirmed and the sample fuelrating is repeated to establish the proper conditions a secondtime. The average cylinder height reading for the sample fuel,compensated for barometric pressure, is converted directly toO.N. using the guide table. A final
