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.

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.

CURRENT

J1094_201109

This SAE Information Report describes uniform laboratory techniques for employing the constant volume sampler (CVS) system in measuring various constituents in the exhaust gas of gasoline engines installed on passenger cars and light trucks. The techniques described relate particularly to CVS systems employing positive displacement pumps. This is essentially an almost obsolete system relative to usage in industry and government. Current practice favors the use of a critical flow venturi to measure the diluted exhaust flow. In some areas of CVS practice, alternative procedures are given as a guide toward development of uniform laboratory techniques. The report includes the following sections: Introduction 1. Scope 2. References 2.1 Applicable Publications 3. Definitions 4. Test Equipment 4.1 Sampler 4.2 Bag Analysis 4.3 Modal Analysis 4.4 Instrument Operating Procedures 4.5 Supplementary Discussions 4.6 Tailpipe Connections 4.7 Chassis Dynamometer 5.

CURRENT

J1515_201109

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.

Diesel Engine Emission Measurement Procedure

2002-10-21

CURRENT

J1003_200210

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended for use as a test procedure to determine the gaseous emission level of diesel engines. Its purpose is to provide a map of an engine's emissions characteristics which, through use of the proper weighing factors, can be used as a measure of that engine's emission levels under various applications. The emission results for hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide are expressed in units of grams per kilowatt hour (grams/brake horsepower hour) and represent the mass rate of emissions per unit of work accomplished. The emissions are measured in accordance with SAE Recommended Practices J177, J215, and J244 using nondispersive infrared equipment for CO and CO2, a heated flame ionization analyzer for HC, and a high performance NDIR or a chemiluminescence analyzer for NO{sub}x. All emissions are measured during steady-state engine operation.
