1、Designation: D5798 13aD5798 14Standard 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 revisi

2、on, the 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 U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specificat

3、ion covers the requirements for automotive fuel blends of ethanol and gasoline for use in ground vehiclesequipped with ethanol fuel blend flexible-fuel spark-ignition engines. Fuel produced to this specification contains 51 to 83 volume% ethanol. This fuel is for use in flexible-fuel vehicles and is

4、 sometimes referred to at retail as “Ethanol Flex-Fuel.” Appendix X1discusses the significance of the properties specified.1.2 The vapor pressure of ethanol fuel blends is varied for seasonal climatic changes. Vapor pressure is increased at lowertemperatures to ensure adequate flexible-fuel vehicle

5、operability. Ethanol content and selection of hydrocarbon blendstock areadjusted by the blender to meet these vapor pressure requirements.1.3 This specification formerly covered Fuel Ethanol (Ed70-Ed85) for Automotive Spark-Ignition Engines, also knowncommercially as E85. The nomenclature “fuel etha

6、nol” has been changed to “ethanol fuel blends” to distinguish this product fromdenatured fuel ethanol Specification D4806. To facilitate blending of ethanol fuel blends that meet seasonal vapor pressurerequirements, a new lower minimum ethanol content has been established.1.4 The United States gover

7、nment has established various programs for alternative fuels. Many of the definitions of alternativefuel used by these programs may be more restrictive than the requirements of this specification. See 4.1.2.1 for additionalinformation on alternative fuels containing ethanol.1.5 The values stated in

8、SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.1.6 The following safety hazard caveat pertains only to the test method portion, 8.1.8, of this specification. This standard doesnot purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated

9、 with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standardto establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
