Spark Arrester Test Procedure for Large Size Engines

2013-03-26

HISTORICAL

J342_201303

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes equipment and procedures for the evaluation of the effectiveness and other performance characteristics of spark arresters or turbochargers used on the exhaust system of large engines normally used in a railroad locomotive, stationary power plant, and other similar applications. This document does not cover applications requiring flame arresting, exhaust gas cooling, or isolation from explosive gases. Two test methods are presented: a laboratory test using ambient air (cold test) and an engine test using exhaust gases (hot test). The hot test is preferred. Arresters tested by the provisions of this document can be expected to perform as tested when tilted no more than 45 degrees from their normal position. Test results from a spark arrester or turbocharger evaluated by the hot test can be applied to different engines of similar design, provided the data shows it to be effective in the applicable flow ranges.

Flywheels for Single-Plate Spring-Loaded Clutches

2012-05-31

CURRENT

J618_201205

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to flywheels for dry spring-loaded clutches used on internal combustion engines. Figure 1 and Tables 1, 2, and 3 report information currently used in the industry. Clutches requiring other dimensions are also manufactured. Dimensions given are primarily for single-plate clutches. Flywheels for two plate clutches have the same dimensions if an adaptor for the intermediate plate and second driven disc is supplied with the clutch. If instead the flywheel is to be extended to adapt the intermediate plate and second driven member, consult the clutch manufacturer for the required J dimension and drive arrangements for the intermediate plate. See SAE J1806 for flywheels for size 14 and 15.5 two plate pull-type clutches.

The guidelines in this SAE Information Report are directed at laboratory engine dynamometer test procedures with alternative fuels, and they are applicable to four-stroke and two-stroke cycle spark ignition (SI) and diesel (CI) engines (naturally aspirated or pressure charged, with or without charge air cooling). A brief overview of investigations with some alternative fuels can be found in SAE J1297. Other SAE documents covering vehicle, engine, or component testing may be affected by use of alternative fuels. Some of the documents that may be affected can be found in Appendix A. Guidelines are provided for the engine power test code (SAE J1349) in Appendix D. The principles of these guidelines may apply to other procedures and codes, but the effects have not been investigated. The report is organized into four technical sections, each dealing with an important aspect of testing or reporting of results when using alternative fuels.

Engine Testing with Low-Temperature Charge Air-cooler Systems in a Dynamometer Test Cell

2002-10-21

HISTORICAL

J1937_200210

The methods presented in this SAE Recommended Practice apply to the controlled testing of low-temperature charge, air-cooled, heavy-duty diesel engines. This document encompasses the following main sections: a Definitions of pertinent parameters b Vehicle testing to determine typical values for these parameters c Description of the setup and operation of the test cell system d Validation testing of the test cell system While not covered in this document, computer modeling of the vehicle engine cooler system is recognized as a valid tool to determine cooler system performance and could be utilized to supplement the testing described. However, adequate in-vehicle testing should be performed to validate the model before it is used for the purposes outlined. The procedure makes references to test cycles that are prescribed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) and are contained in the Code of Federal Regulations.

Measurement of Fuel Evaporative Emissions from Gasoline Powered Passenger Carsand Light Trucks Using the Enclosure Technique

2000-12-07

CURRENT

J171_200012

This SAE Recommended Practice describes a procedure for measuring evaporative emissions from fuel systems of passenger cars and light trucks. Emissions are measured during a sequence of laboratory tests that simulate typical vehicle usage in a metropolitan area during summer months: a. A 1 h soak representing one diurnal cycle in which temperature of fuel in the vehicle's tank is raised from 15.6 to 28.9 °C (60 to 84 °F) b. A 17.9 km (11.1 mile) drive on a chassis dynamometer c. A 1 h hot soak immediately following the 17.9 km (11.1 mile) drive The method described in this document, commonly known as the SHED (Sealed Housing for Evaporative Determination) technique, employs an enclosure in which the vehicle is placed during the diurnal and hot soak phases of the test.

Diesel Smoke Measurement Procedure

1995-03-01

HISTORICAL

J35_199503

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to the dynamometer test procedure which can be used to assess the smoke emission characteristics of vehicular diesel engines. In particular, this procedure describes the smoke test cycle, equipment and instrumentation, instrument checks, chart reading, and calculation for evaluation of an engine's transient smoke emission characteristic. In addition, this procedure offers guidelines to be used in establishing correlation between full flow in-line and end-of-line opacimeters. Since the type of test described here is transient in nature, a fast responding full flow opacimeter is required for the smoke measurements. Slow responding or sampling, or both, type instruments must not be used since they typically have excessive and variable response delays and do not provide an accurate measurement of an engine's transient smoke characteristics.

DIESEL ENGINE SMOKE MEASUREMENT

1995-02-24

HISTORICAL

J255_199502

Measurement of diesel smoke in an accurate and consistent manner has been a serious problem for engine and vehicle manufacturers, users, and agencies charged with enforcing smoke limits. Several instruments, based on different principles and using different scales, are commonly used. In addition to these, human observation and judgment are often used to relate smoke to a variety of standards. The purpose of this SAE Information Report is to provide an understanding of the nature of diesel smoke, how it can be measured, and how the various measurement methods can be correlated. Except for defining the various types of smoke, the report deals solely with the steady-state measurement of visible, black smoke emitted from diesel engines. For the benefit of those who wish to study various aspects of the subject in greater depth, a list of useful references is included in Section 2. This document is divided into the following sections:
