1、Designation:D721516Standard Test Method forCalculated Flash Point from Simulated Distillation Analysisof Distillate Fuels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7215;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the y
2、ear of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the calculated flash pointformula,which represents a means for directly estimating theflash
3、 point temperature of distillate fuels from Test MethodD2887 data.The value computed from the equation is termedthe“calculated flash point.”The calculated flash point formulais applicable to diesel fuel samples based on a correlation toTest Method D93 over the range from 47 C to 99 C,and to jetfuel
4、samples based on a correlation to Test Method D56 andTest Method D3828 over the range from 35 C to 67 C.1.2 The calculated flash point formula is valid for diesel andjet fuels with an IBP between 90 C and 162 C(194 F and324 F),Test Method D2887 5%recovery temperature be-tween 136 C and 207 C(277 F a

6、s per equation.1.3 A calculated diagnostic parameter,not exceeding agiven threshold value,is a prerequisite for acceptance of thecalculated flash point.1.4 The diagnostic parameter MSPEX(Mean SummedPrediction Error)checks the sample compliance,based onreconstruction of TIBP,T5%,and T10%of the sample
7、,via acalculation procedure.A value for MSPEXnot exceeding thethreshold level of 1.9 C is a prerequisite for accepting thecalculated flash point,CFP.NOTE1It is important to note that calculated flash point results,at thistime,are not recognized by regulatory organizations in verifying confor-mance t
