3、nt of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the laboratory determination ofthe viscosity of engine oils at 150 C and 1.0106s1using aviscometer having a slightly tapered rotor and stator called theTapered Bearing Simulator(TBS)Viscometer.21.2 The Newtonian calibration oils used to establish thi
4、s testmethod range from approximately 1.2 mPas to 7.7 mPas at150 C.The precision has only been determined for theviscosity range 1.47 mPas to 5.09 mPas at 150 C for thematerials listed in the precision section.1.3 The non-Newtonian reference oil used to establish theshear rate of 1.0106s1for this te
5、st method has a viscosityclosely held to 3.55 mPas at 150 C by using the absoluteviscometry of the TBS.1.4 Manual,semi-automated,and fully automated TBSviscometers were used in developing the precision statementfor this test method.1.5 Application to petroleum products such as base oils andformulate
6、d engine oils was determined in preparing the visco-metric information for this test method.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6.1 This test method uses the milliPascalsecond(mPas)as the unit of viscosity.This
7、unit is equivalent to the centipoise(cP).1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of
