8、ping equipment.4.2 This guide has been developed for use by the following:manufacturers of pumping systems who wish to establish acommon means of evaluating and reporting the performancecharacteristics of their products;and existing or potential usersof pumping systems who wish to compare the perfor
9、mancecharacteristics of various products.5.Test Fluids:Suggested Test Fluid Viscosities5.1 A selection of test fluids from the following viscosityranges is recommended and should include an adequate num-ber of data points to display the pumps performance over theintended range of operation.It is rec
10、ommended that the testfluids include one selection from each of the four ranges listedin Table 1,depending on the intended service of the pump.Inparticular,three viscosity targets are recommended to allowcomparisons with skimmer test data(Guide F631),namely,200,2000,and 60 000 cSt.5.2 For the tests
11、described in 6.3 6.6,use hydrocarbon-based single-viscosity oils or mixtures of high-and low-viscosity hydrocarbons,or both,at various temperatures toachieve test viscosities.Higher viscosities,such as those inCategory 4,may require the use of emulsions.Note that,whenusing high-viscosity fluids,care
12、 must be taken in interpretingthe test results due to two-phase flow considerations.The testfluid viscosity should be identified by measurements at shearrates of 1,10,and 50 s1(Test Method D2196).6.Categories of Tests for Pump Performance6.1 Suction and Discharge HosesEach of the followingtests(6.3
13、6.5)should be conducted using suction anddischarge hoses that are the same diameter as the respectivepump inlet and discharge fittings.1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F20 on HazardousSubstances and Oil Spill Responseand is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeF20.12 on Re
