26、. 2.3.1.3.3 marquenching oils, nalso referred to as mar-quenching oils or hot oils, these oils are typically used attemperatures between 95 to 230C (203 to 446F) and areusually formulated to optimize oxidative and thermal stabilityby the addition of antioxidants and because they are used atrelativel

27、y high temperatures, a protective or non-oxidizingenvironment is often employed, which permits much higheruse temperatures than open-air conditions.3.1.3.4 quenching oil, nalthough usually derived from apetroleum oil, they may also be derived from natural oils suchas vegetable oils or synthetic oils

28、 such as poly(alpha olefin).They are used to mediate heat transfer from a heated metal,such as austenitized steel, to control the microstructure that isformed upon cooling and also control distortion and minimizecracking which may accompany the cooling process.3.1.4 Cooling Curve Terminology:3.1.4.1

31、st method willdepend on the system in use and the purpose of the test methodlisted under Section 6. Use the most recent editions of the testmethods.5. Sampling5.1 Sampling UniformityFlow is never uniform in agi-tated quench tanks. There is always variation of flow rate andturbulence from top to bott

32、om and across the tank. This meansthat there may be significant variations of particulate contami-nation including sludge from oil oxidation and metal scale. Foruniform sampling, a number of sampling recommendationshave been developed.5.1.1 Sampling Recommendations:5.1.1.1 Minimum Sampling TimeThe c

33、irculation pumpsshall be in operation for at least 1 h prior to taking a samplefrom a quench system.5.1.1.2 Sampling PositionFor each system, the sampleshall be taken from the same position each time that system issampled. The sample shall be taken at the point of maximumflow turbulence. The positio

35、rresponding CoolingRate CurveD 6710 02 (2007)35.1.1.3 Sampling ValvesIf a sample is taken from asampling valve, then sufficient quenching oil should be takenand discarded to ensure that the sampling valve and associatedpiping has been flushed, before the sample is taken.5.1.1.4 Sampling From Tanks W

36、ith No AgitationIfsamples are to be taken from bulk storage tank or a quench tankwith no agitation, then samples shall be taken from the top andbottom of the bulk system or quench tank. If this is not possibleand the sample can only be taken from the top, then thelaboratory report shall state that t

37、he results represent a sampletaken from the top of the bulk system or quench tank and maynot be representative of the total system.5.1.1.5 Effect of Quenching Oil Addition as Make-Up Dueto DragoutIt is important to determine the quantity andfrequency of new quenchant additions, as large additions of

38、new quench oil will have an effect on the test results, inparticular the cooling curve. If a sample was taken just after alarge addition of new quench oil, this shall be taken intoconsideration when interpreting the cooling curve of this oilsample.5.1.1.6 Sampling ContainersSamples shall be collecte

39、d innew containers. Under no circumstances shall used beverage orfood containers be used because of the potential for fluidcontamination and leakage.6. Recommended Test Procedures6.1 Performance-Related Physical and Chemical Proper-ties:6.1.1 Kinematic Viscosity, (Test Method D 445)The per-formance

40、of a quench oil is dependent on its viscosity, whichFIG. 4 Leidenfrost Temperature and its Independence of the Initial Temperature of the Metal Being QuenchedNOTE 1Measurements are nominal. (From Test Method D 6200.)FIG. 5 Probe Details and Probe AssemblyD 6710 02 (2007)4varies with temperature and

41、oil deterioration during continueduse. Increased oil viscosity typically results in decreased heattransfer rates. (6) Oil viscosity varies with temperature whichaffects heat transfer rates throughout the process.6.1.1.1 The flow velocity of a quench oil depends on bothviscosity and temperature. Some

42、 quench oils are used at highertemperatures, such as martempering oils, also known ashot-oils. Although the viscosity of a martempering oil may notfluctuate substantially at elevated temperatures, the oil maybecome almost solid upon cooling. Thus, the viscosity-temperature relationship (viscosity in

43、dex) of a quench oil maybe critically important from the dual standpoint of quenchseverity and flow velocity.6.1.1.2 Typically kinematic viscosity determination by TestMethod D 445 is used. Viscosity measurements are made at40C (104F) for conventional or accelerated oils and also at100C (212F) for m

44、artempering oils.6.1.2 Flash Point and Fire Point (Test Method D 92)Useof a quench oil in an open system with no protective atmo-sphere shall be at least 60 to 65C lower than its actual opencup flash point to minimize the potential for fire. Generalguidelines have been developed for use-temperatures

45、 of aquench oil relative to its flash point.NOTE 1There are various manufacturer-dependent guidelines forrelating the suitability for use of a used quenching oil with respect to itsflash point and they shall be followed. In the absence of such guidelines,it is recommended that the use temperature of

46、 a quenching oil in an opensystem with no protective atmosphere shall be more than 60 to 65C (140to 149F) below its actual open-cup flash point. In closed systems wherea protective atmosphere is used, the use temperature of the used quenchingoil shall be at least 35C (95F) lower than its actual open

47、-cup flash point.6.1.3 Density (Test Methods D 1298 and D 4052)Thedensity of materials of similar volatility is dependent on thechemical composition, and in the case of quenching oils, thetype of basestock used in formulation. The oxidative stabilityof quenching oils is also dependent on similar che

48、micalcomposition trends, and thus density (or relative density) is anindirect indicator of oxidative stability. Density (or relativedensity) is measured at, or converted to, a standard referencetemperature, normally either 15C or 60/60F, and these shouldbe quoted alongside the result.6.1.3.1 Test Me

49、thod D 1298 uses a hydrometer plus ther-mometer for measurement while Test Method D 4052 uses adigital density meter based on an oscillating U-tube.NOTE 2Density or relative density are of limited value in theassessment of quality of a quenching oil.6.2 Aged Fluid PropertiesIn addition to significantchanges in fluid viscosity, oil degradation by thermal andoxidative processes may result in the formation of undesirablelevels of volatile by-products, sludge formation, metal-stainingproducts and particulates, all of which may r
