1、Designation: D5798 13aStandard Specification forEthanol Fuel Blends for Flexible-Fuel Automotive Spark-Ignition Engines1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5798; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the

2、year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers th

3、e requirements for automo-tive fuel blends of ethanol and gasoline for use in groundvehicles equipped with ethanol fuel blend flexible-fuel spark-ignition engines. Fuel produced to this specification contains51 to 83 volume % ethanol. This fuel is for use in flexible-fuelvehicles and is sometimes re

4、ferred to at retail as “EthanolFlex-Fuel.” Appendix X1 discusses the significance of theproperties specified.1.2 The vapor pressure of ethanol fuel blends is varied forseasonal climatic changes. Vapor pressure is increased at lowertemperatures to ensure adequate flexible-fuel vehicle operabil-ity. E

5、thanol content and selection of hydrocarbon blendstockare adjusted by the blender to meet these vapor pressurerequirements.1.3 This specification formerly covered Fuel Ethanol (Ed70-Ed85) for Automotive Spark-Ignition Engines, also knowncommercially as E85. The nomenclature “fuel ethanol” hasbeen ch

6、anged to “ethanol fuel blends” to distinguish thisproduct from denatured fuel ethanol Specification D4806.Tofacilitate blending of ethanol fuel blends that meet seasonalvapor pressure requirements, a new lower minimum ethanolcontent has been established.1.4 The United States government has establish

7、ed variousprograms for alternative fuels. Many of the definitions ofalternative fuel used by these programs may be more restrictivethan the requirements of this specification. See 4.1.2.1 foradditional information on alternative fuels containing ethanol.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be re

8、garded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.6 The following safety hazard caveat pertains only to thetest method portion, 8.1.8, of this specification. This standarddoes not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any,associated with its use. It is the

9、responsibility of the user of thisstandard to establish appropriate safety and health practicesand determine the applicability of regulatory limitations priorto use.2.
