United States14. Summary of Test Method4.1 A drop of oil is deposited on a piece of spec

17、ific filterpaper held level and not resting on a surface. The filter paperis placed in an oven set at 80 C for 1 h. The oil wicks acrossthe paper. The oil spot is illuminated with a constant andhomogenous LED (light emitting diodes) backlight. A CCD(charge-coupled device) camera positioned on the ot

18、her side ofthe paper takes a picture of the spot in black and white mode.The software analyzes each pixel of the picture. Dispersancycharacteristics of the oil are judged by how far the oil dropspreads, how large the central sooty area is, and how homo-geneous the opacity of the spot is in compariso

19、n with atheoretical reference diameter of 32 mm.5. Significance and Use5.1 Dispersancy is the property that allows oil to suspendand carry away pollutants of diverse sources such as soot fromcombustion, metallic particles from wear, corrosion of me-chanical parts, and insoluble products resulting fr

20、om the agingof the oil.5.2 When poured on a specific filter paper, oil that isproperly dispersing soot and other insolubles produces anevenly graduated spot. The distribution of the different zones(Fig. 1) will reflect the status of oil dispersancy.5.3 While the oil spreads out on the filter paper,

21、the oilcarries contaminants, and due to the lamination phenomenon ofthe oil film, the particles of same size deposit on the paper onthe same concentric zones.5.4 This test method provides a simple technique for con-dition monitoring of the dispersancy property of in-servicelubricants.5.5 An oil that

22、 is properly dispersing soot and other in-solubles produces an evenly graduated blotter (see Fig.2Spot 1).Aring of light debris on the outer circumference ofthe circular spot also indicates that the oil has retained itsdispersancy properties.5.6 A blotter indicating a high soot load, but evengraduat

23、ion, suggests the oil is still fit for service, but should bewatched closely for degradation (see Fig. 2Spot 2).5.7 When dispersancy begins to fail, the insolubles begin toform a dense ring on the exterior of the absorbing oil drop asin Fig. 2Spot 3.

25、r of the oil blotter, it is time to lookat scheduling a drain. If the black dot is allowed to form, thesituation is problematic because the undispersed portion of sootFIG. 1 Oil Spot Example and Scheme of the Distribution of the Different ZonesD7899 132that has deposited upon surfaces will not be re

Also, ifdispersancy performance degrades at an unusually rapid pace,a more extensive review of combustion and ring performanceshould be undertaken.6. Apparatus6.1 Positive

46、.9 Once the test is initiated, the following steps will beachieved:10.9.1 Step 1Oil Spot detection and size measurement.10.9.1.1 The software determines the edges and the centerof the oil spot. r1 and r2 in Fig. 6 are determined by convertingin mm the number of pixels on r1 and r2 lines. The diamete

47、rof the oil spot is determined by the addition of r1 + r2.10.9.2 Step 2Contamination IndexIC calculation.10.9.2.1 The contamination level (IC) is determined byanalyzing the oil spot opacity. The software determines thelevel of gray (from 0 to 255) of each pixel included in the oilspot. The oil spot

48、opacity is the sum of all opacities of all pixelsincluded in the oil spot image divided by the total number ofpixels of the oil spot image. Using an established correlationtable, the software determines the IC corresponding to themeasured opacity. The IC measuring limits are: 0 % to 4.8 %.10.9.3 Ste

49、p 3Merit of DispersancyMD calculation.10.9.3.1 To determine MD, the software needs to calculatetwo intermediary parameters, DB (DB comes from the Frenchterm Dmrite Brut, which means gross demerit) and ratio.10.9.3.2 Homogeneity of soot distribution within the oilspot is assessed by the DB value. The distribution of theparticles in the oil spot is assessed by the ratio value. The DBand the ratio values are not reported. Combination of both DBand ratio gives the value of the merit of dispersancy (MD).MD 5 1 2 DB!Ratio
