Scope1.1 This test method covers the procedure for distillation ofheavy hydrocarbon mixtures having initial b

3、oiling pointsgreater than 150C (300F), such as heavy crude oils, petro-leum distillates, residues, and synthetic mixtures. It employs apotstill with a low pressure drop entrainment separator oper-ated under total takeoff conditions. Distillation conditions andequipment performance criteria are speci

4、fied and typical appa-ratus is illustrated.1.2 This test method details the procedures for the produc-tion of distillate fractions of standardized quality in the gas oiland lubricating oil range as well as the production of standardresidue. In addition, it provides for the determination ofstandard d

5、istillation curves to the highest atmospheric equiva-lent temperature possible by conventional distillation.1.3 The maximum achievable atmospheric equivalent tem-perature (AET) is dependent upon the heat tolerance of thecharge. For most samples, a temperature up to 565C (1050F)can be attained. This

6、maximum will be significantly lower forheat sensitive samples (for example, heavy residues) and mightbe somewhat higher for nonheat sensitive samples.1.4 The recommended distillation method for crude oils upto cutpoint 400C (752F) AET is Test Method D2892. Thistest method can be used for heavy crude

7、 oils with initial boilingpoints greater than 150C (302F). However, distillation curvesand fraction qualities obtained by these methods are notcomparable.1.5 This test method contains the following annexes:1.5.1 Annex A1Test Method for Determination of Tem-perature Response Time,1.5.2 Annex A2Practi

Summary of Test Method4.1 A weighed volume of sample is distilled at absolutepressures between 6.6 and 0.013 kPa (50 and 0.1 mm Hg) atspecified distillation rates. Cuts are taken at preselected tem-peratures. Recor

Distillation yieldsby mass are calculated from the mass of each fraction relativeto the total mass recovery.4.3 The density of each fraction is

25、obtained. Distillationyields by volume are calculated from the volume computed foreach fraction at 15C (59F) relative to the total recovery.4.4 Distillation curves of temperature versus mass or vol-ume percent, or both, are drawn using the data from 4.2 and4.3.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test me

26、thod is one of a number of tests conductedon heavy hydrocarbon mixtures to characterize these materialsfor a refiner or a purchaser. It provides an estimate of the yieldsof fractions of various boiling ranges.5.2 The fractions made by this test method can be usedalone or in combination with other fr

The long heatsoaking that occurs in this test method may alter some of theproperties.NOTE 1While the practice of reblending d

28、istillates with residue canbe done to produce a lighter residue, it is not recommended because itproduces blends with irregular properties.5.4 Details of cutpoints must be mutually agreed uponbefore the test begins.5.5 This is a complex procedure involving many interactingvariables. It is most impor

29、tant that at the time of first use of anew apparatus, its components be checked as detailed inAnnexA1 and Annex A2 and that the location of the vapor tempera-ture sensor be verified as detailed in 6.5.3 and Fig. 1.6.

Therecommended loading factor is between 200 and 400 mL ofcharge per square centimetre of cross sectional area in the neckof the head.
