Apparatus6.1 Drying Pans, noncorrodible, stable at the temperature used, and of such size that the sample can be spread to a depth ofnot more than 25 mm (1 in.).1 in.6.1.1 The pan size may be varied to suit the size of the sampl

17、e and the oven. The height of the sides shall be no more than 40mm (1112 in.)in. so that air is not restricted in passing over the coal.6.2 Drying Oven, forced air-type capable of maintaining a temperature of 107 6 3C and constructed to provide for acontinuous air flow to all parts of the oven. Air

18、changes shall be at the rate of two to four volumes per minute.7. Sampling7.1 The sample shall be prepared to 2.36 mm (No. 8) according to Test Method D2013. Divide from the 2.36-mm (No. 8) sievesize subsample (Test Method D2013) a portion not less than 125 g.7.2 That portion of the sample used for

19、the moisture determination shall have a minimum weight of 125 g.8. Procedure8.1 Weigh the empty drying pan. Record the mass in grams as W1. Transfer the sample from the sample container to the dryingpan. Distribute the sample uniformly over the pan. Do not exceed a depth of 25 mm (1 in.).1 in. Place

20、 the empty sample containerin the drying pan. Weigh the drying pan, coal sample, and empty sample container. Record the mass in grams as W3.8.2 Place the pan, sample, and empty sample container in the oven at a temperature of 107 6 3C. Maintain the air flow toprovide continuous introduction of air w
