1、Designation:D519115Standard Test Method forVapor Pressure of Petroleum Products(Mini Method)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5191;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number
2、 in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the use of automated vaporpressure
3、instruments to determine the total vapor pressureexerted in vacuum by air-containing,volatile,liquid petroleumproducts,including automotive spark-ignition fuels with orwithout oxygenates(see Note 1).This test method is suitablefor testing samples with boiling points above 0 C(32 F)thatexert a vapor
4、pressure between 7 kPa and 130 kPa(1.0 psi and18.6 psi)at 37.8 C(100 F)at a vapor-to-liquid ratio of 4:1.Measurements are made on liquid sample sizes in the rangefrom 1 mL to 10 mL.No account is made for dissolved waterin the sample.NOTE1An interlaboratory study was conducted in 2008 involving 11dif
5、ferent laboratories submitting 15 data sets and 15 different samples ofethanol-fuel blends containing 25 volume%,50 volume%,and 75volume%ethanol.The results indicated that the repeatability limits ofthese samples are with in the published repeatability of this test method.on this basis,it can be con
6、cluded that D5191 is applicable to ethanol-fuelblends such as Ed75 and Ed85(Specification D5798)and other ethanol-fuel blends with greater than 10 v%ethanol.See ASTM RR:D021694filed with ASTM for supporting data.2NOTE2Samples can also be tested at other vapor-to-liquid ratios,temperatures,and pressu
