16、sferring heat to or from an apparatus orprocess, although this guide does not preclude the evaluation ofa heat transfer fluid that may be used in its vapor state. Heattransfer fluids may be hydrocarbon or petroleumbased, suchas polyglycols, esters, hydrogenated terphenyls, alkylated aro-matics, diph

17、enyl-oxide/biphenyl blends, and mixtures of di-and triaryl-ethers. Small percentages of functional componentssuch as antioxidants, antiwear and anti-corrosion agents, TBN,acid scavengers, or dispersants, or a combination thereof, canbe present.4. Significance and Use4.1 The significance of each test

18、 method depends upon thesystem in use and the purpose of the test method as listed underSection 5. Use the most recent editions of ASTM test methods.5. Recommended Test Procedures5.1 Pumpability of the Fluid:5.1.1 Flash Point, Closed Cup (Test Method D93)Thistest method detects low flash ends which

19、are one cause ofcavitation during pumping. In closed systems, especially whenfluids are exposed to temperatures of 225C or higher, theformation of volatile hydrocarbons by breakdown of the oilmay require venting through a pressure relief system to preventdangerous pressure build-up.5.1.2 Pour Point

20、(Test Method D97)The pour point can beused as an approximate guide to the minimum temperature fornormal pumping and as a general indication of fluid type andlow temperature properties. Should a heat transfer system belikely to be subjected to low temperatures when not in use, thesystem should be tra

21、ce heated to warm the fluid aboveminimum pumping temperature before start-up.5.1.3 Viscosity (Test Method D445)Fluid viscosity is im-portant for determining Reynolds and Prandtl numbers for heattransfer systems, to estimate fluid turbulence, heat transfercoefficient, and heat flow. Generally, a flui

22、d that is aboveapproximately 200 cSt is difficult to pump. The pump andsystem design determine the viscosity limit required forpumping. The construction of a viscosity/temperature curveusing determined viscosities can be used to estimate minimumpumping temperature.5.1.4 Specific Gravity (Test Method

23、 D1298)Hydraulicshock during pumping has been predicted via the use of acombination of density and compressibility data.5.1.5 Water Content (Test Method D95)The water contentof a fresh heat transfer fluid can be used to indicate how longthe heat transfer system shall be dried out during commission-i

24、ng, while raising the bulk oil temperature through the 100Cplus region, with venting, before the system can be safely usedat higher temperatures. The expansion tank should be fullduring the operations to ensure that moisture is safely vented inthe lowest pressure part of the systems. Positive nitrog

25、enpressure on the heat exchange systems minimizes entry of airor moisture. Heat transfer systems operating at temperatures of120C or greater shall, for reasons of safety, be dry, becausedestructive high pressures are generated when water enters thehigh temperature sections of the system. Heating the

26、 oil beforeit is placed in service also removes most of the dissolved air inthe oil. If not removed, the air can cause pump cavitation. Theair can also accumulate in stagnant parts of the system at highpressure and could cause an explosion.5.1.6 Vapor Pressure (Test Method D2879)Vapor pres-sure, whi

27、ch normally increases with increasing operatingtemperature, is an important design parameter. Organic heattransfer fluids exhibiting high vapor pressures should be usedonly in systems with sufficient structural integrity. Operation ofvapor phase systems requires knowledge of the equilibriumvapor pre

28、ssure.5.2 Safety in Use:5.2.1 Autoignition Temperature (Test Method E659)Thistest relates to the autoignition temperature of a bulk fluid.Hydrocarbon fluids absorbed on porous inert surfaces canignite at temperatures more than 50C lower than indicated byTest Method E659. An open flame ignites leakin

29、g hydrocarbonfluids exposed on a porous surface at any temperature.5.2.2 Flash Point (Test Methods D92 and D93)Some heattransfer fluids are volatile and present a fire hazard at slightlyelevated temperatures, or even below 25C.5.2.3 Biodegradation (Test Method D5864)5An environ-mental concern, and t

30、oxicity (like acute fish toxicity, seeOECD Test No. 203) is more of an immediate concern forpersonnel that may come into contact with the heat transferfluid as well as plant and animal life that may come into contactwith effluent that migrates to streams, rivers, or reservoirs.Safety in use informat

31、ion is included a Material Safety DataSheet (MSDS). See Terminology D6384 for terminologyrelating to biodegradability and ecotoxicity. A basis for biode-gradable classification for hydraulic fluids is found in Table 4of D7044-04 and while no specific biodegradability classifica-tions are available f

32、or heat transfer fluids, the environmentalpersistence of heat transfer fluids should be evaluated.5.3 Effect on Equipment:5.3.1 Effect on Rubber or Elastomeric Seals (Test MethodD471)Most seals in heat exchange equipment are made ofsteel or other metal. If rubber seals are present, it is desirableto

33、 maintain rubber swelling in the range of 1 to5%topreventleakage because of poor seal contact. Seals may degrade insome fluids. As an oil deteriorates in service, additional testsmay be required to ensure that seals remain compatible withthe altered oil. The temperature ranges of the tests shouldcor

34、respond to temperatures to which seals will be exposed inservice.5.3.2 Corrosion (Guide G4)These tests concern selectionof materials of construction with fluids usable for heat transfersystems. Guide G4 uses test metal specimens fixed within thestream of test fluid under use. The specimens and condi

35、tionsfor test shall be specified for each system.5As heat transfer fluids are mainly used in closed and sealed circuits, this guideis limited to biodegradation issues. An extension to “environmentally friendly” or“ecoevaluated” heat transfer fluids including aquatic toxicities may be an object offut

36、ure revision.D7665 1025.4 Effciency:5.4.1 Thermal Conductivity (Test Method D2717) and Spe-cific Heat (Test Method D2766)These thermal conductivityand specific heat tests are difficult to carry out, facilities forperforming them are few, and the precision data is yet to beestablished. Values can be

37、estimated for design use from thegeneral chemical composition. Differences contribute to effi-ciency to a lesser degree than values such as viscosity, moisturecontamination, and other measurable values in 5.1 and 5.5 ofthis guide. The values for thermal conductivity and specificheat may be available

38、 from the fluid supplier.65.5 Service Life:5.5.1 Thermal Stability, Laboratory Tests7Thermal stabil-ity is here defined as the resistance of a hydrocarbon liquid topermanent changes in properties that make it a less efficientheat transfer fluid. These changes may be related to alterationsin the liqu

39、ids properties, such as viscosity, or to the tendencyto foul heat exchanger surfaces with insulating deposits.Normally, testing should be done in the absence of air andmoisture to stimulate “tight” systems. The test may be usefulfor assessing the remaining service life of a used fluid, or itmay be u

40、sed to compare the expected service life of competi-tive new heat transfer fluids.5.5.2 The following test methods can be used to determinethe change in values between new and used fluids, or betweena fluid before and after subjection to a laboratory thermalstability test. These test methods have be

41、en found especiallyuseful for determining the end of a fluids service life when anidentical fluid has been monitored with the same tests through-out its service life. These test methods can also detect leakageof foreign material into the heat transfer fluid.5.5.2.1 Precipitation Number (Test Method

42、D91) and In-solubles (Test Method D893)These test methods determinethe extent to which insolubles that may contribute to fouling ofmetal surfaces are increasing.5.5.2.2 Flash Point (Test Methods D92 and D93)A low-ering of flash point is indicative of thermal cracking to producelower molecular weight

43、 hydrocarbons. A rapid increase mayindicate that fluid is being exposed to excessive temperatures.5.5.2.3 Carbon Residue (Test Methods D189, D524, andD4530)An increase of carbon residue during service pro-vides an indication of the fluids tendency to form carbon-aceous deposits. These deposits, whic

44、h may impair heattransfer, are caused by precipitation of high molecular weightmaterials produced by thermal cracking of the fluid.5.5.2.4 Viscosity (Test Method D445)An increase in vis-cosity may reduce the fluids ability to transfer heat (see 5.1.3).Cracking of hydrocarbons in high temperature ser

45、vice in closedsystems often causes a decrease in viscosity. Thus a change inviscosity taken by itself is insufficient to judge the performanceof a fluid in service.5.5.2.5 Distillation (Test Methods D86, D1160, andD2887)Distillation can show directly the percentage of afluid that has cracked into lo

46、wer boiling products or has beenconverted into higher boiling products. Distillation data canserve as the sole criterion for changing a heat transfer fluid.5.5.2.6 Neutralization Number (Test Method D664)Amarked increase in neutralization number is a warning ofoxidation in the system, which may be t

47、he result of leaks. Inhigh-temperature service (200C), organic acids may decom-pose, and the use of infrared analyses may serve as a morereliable method for detection of oxidation.5.5.2.7 Color (Test Method D1500)In itself, color is notimportant, but may be the initial indication of chemicalchanges

48、in the heat transfer system.5.5.2.8 Viscosity Index (Test Method D2270)The viscosityindex of a fluid may change during service. Generally, theviscosity of a heat transfer fluid is not measured at theoperating temperature (see 5.5.2.4). If the viscosity index ofnew and used fluids are known, the visc

49、osities at operatingtemperature can be estimated and compared.5.5.2.9 Water Content (Test Method D95)Small amountsof water present in heat transfer systems may cause corrosion,high pressures, or pump cavitation.6.
