10、ionA high WSI indicates a fuel that sepa-rates water easily and is relatively free from surfactants.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A fixed volume of test specimen is poured into the testbeaker. The apparatus is purged with the test specimen. Aprecise amount of water containing a specific dye is added

11、tothe test beaker. The test specimen and dyed water are emulsi-fied using a sonicator. The resulting emulsion is passed at aconstant rate directly to the detector, which is sensitive to thedye, to measure a reference value. The emulsion is then passedat the same constant rate to the detector by mean

12、s of a filtercartridge that is designed to remove entrained water. Readingsfrom the detector are taken. The water separationcharacteristic, the Water Separation Index (WSI), is calculatedfrom the reference value and the detector readings. Resultsrange from 0.0 WSI to 100.0 WSI. A high value such as1

United States1100.0 WSI indicates a test specimen that coalesces water easilyand that the test specimen is relatively free of surfactants.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides an indi

16、cation of the presenceof surfactants in aviation fuel. Like Test Methods D2550,D3602, D3948, and D7224, this test method can detectcarryover traces of refinery treating residues in fuel as pro-duced. In addition, these test methods can detect surface activesubstances added to or picked up by the fue

17、l during handlingfrom point of production to point of use. Certain additives canaffect the WSI. Some of these substances affect the ability offilter separators to separate free water from the fuel.5.2 The small scale water separation tester has a measure-ment range from 0.0 WSI to 100.0 WSI.NOTE 1WS

18、I values greater than 100.0 WSI can be caused by areduction in the light transmittance (see A1.1.5) of the test specimen dueto material that was removed during the testing process.5.3 This test method was developed so refiners, fuel termi-nal operators, pipelines, and independent testing laboratoryp

44、dures specified, and13.1.5 The time and date of the test.14. Precision and Bias14.1 GeneralThe precision values given in 14.2 and 14.3were derived from a 2015 laboratory study that used eightinstruments and individual operators at a single location, to test16 samples in duplicate and in random order

45、. The calculationmethod that converts individual detector readings into the finalresult was improved after the ILS. Further details are availablein the research report.514.1.1 As the precision was determined from results ob-tained at a single location, the reproducibility may not becomparable when r

46、esults obtained at different times andlocations are compared, due to sampling, shipping, storage, andenvironmental factors. In practice, two results obtained fromdifferent locations would be within test method precision iftheir absolute difference did not exceed the published repro-ducibility.14.1.2

47、 The precision was obtained by statistical examina-tion of the laboratory study test results according to ISO4259(D6300) using ADJ6300 D2PP.14.2 RepeatabilityThe difference between successive testresults obtained by the same operator with the same apparatusunder constant operating conditions on nomi
