Summary of Test Method4.1 An engine oil sample is held at 80 C and then cooled at a programmed cooling

30、rate to a final test temperature and held fora specified time period. At the end of this period, a series of increasing low torques are applied to the rotor shaft until rotationoccurs to determine the yield stress, if any is exhibited. A higher torque is then applied to determine the apparent viscos

31、ity of thesample.5. Significance and Use5.1 When an engine oil is cooled, the rate and duration of cooling can affect its yield stress and viscosity. In this laboratory test,a fresh engine oil is slowly cooled through a temperature range where wax crystallization is known to occur, followed by relat

32、ivelyrapid cooling to the final test temperature. These laboratory test results have predicted as failures the known engine oils that havefailed in the field because of lack of oil pumpability.4 These documented field failing oils all consisted of oils normally tested at25 C. These field failures ar

33、e believed to be the result of the oil forming a gel structure that results in either excessive yield stressor viscosity of the engine oil, or both.5.2 Cooling Profiles:5.2.1 For oils to be tested at 20 C or colder, Table X1.1 applies. The cooling profile described in Table X1.1 is based on thevisco

34、sity properties of theASTM Pumpability Reference Oils (PRO). This series of oils includes oils with normal low-temperatureflow properties and oils that have been associated with low-temperature pumpability problems (1-5).5 Significance for the 35 Cand 40 C temperature profiles is based on the data c

35、ollected from the “Cold Starting and Pumpability Studies in ModernEngines” conducted by ASTM (6, 7).5.2.2 For oils to be tested at 15 C or 10 C, Table X1.2 applies. No significance has been determined for this temperatureprofile because of the absence of appropriate reference oils. Similarly, precis

36、ion of the test method using this profile for the 10 Ctest temperature is unknown. The temperature profile of Table X1.2 is derived from the one in Table X1.1 and has been movedup in temperature, relative to Table X1.1, in consideration of the expected higher cloud points of the viscous oils tested
