30、rol.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A small specimen of diesel fuel oil is injected into aheated, 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 sens

31、ors that detect the start offuel injection and the start of significant combustion for eachcycle. 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 (deriv

32、ed cetane number), whichis correlated to cetane number by Test Method D613.5.
