Summary of Test Method4.1 A small specimen of diesel fuel oil is injected into aheated,

30、temperature-controlled constant volume chamber,which has previously been charged with compressed air. Eachinjection produces a single-shot, compression ignition combus-tion cycle. ID is measured using sensors that detect the start offuel injection and the start of significant combustion for eachcycl

31、e. A complete sequence comprises 15 preliminary cyclesand 32 further cycles. The ID measurements for the last 32cycles are averaged to produce the ID result. An equationconverts the ID result to DCN (derived cetane number), whichis correlated to cetane number by Test Method D613.5Available from Euro

33、The ID and DCN values determined by this test methodcan provide a measure of the ignition characteristics of dieselfuel oil in compression ignition engines.5.2 This test can be used by engine manufacturers, petro-leum refiners and marketers, and in commerce as a specifica-tion aid to relate or match

34、 fuels and engines.5.3 The relationship of diesel fuel oil DCN determinationsto the performance of full-scale, variable-speed, variable-loaddiesel engines is not completely understood.5.4 This test may be applied to non-conventional fuels. It isrecognized that the performance of non-conventional fue

35、ls infull-scale engines is not completely understood. The user istherefore cautioned to investigate the suitability of ignitioncharacteristic measurements for predicting performance infull-scale engines for these types of fuels.5.5 This test determines ignition characteristics and requiresa sample o

37、 affect ignition delay measurements.86.1.1 Exposure of these fuels and materials to UV wave-lengths shorter than 550 nanometers for a short period of timemay significantly affect ignition delay measurements.NOTE 1The formation of peroxide and radicals can effect ignitiondelay measurement. These form
