What is the National Standard for China V Diesel?
1 Answers
Below are the national standards for China V diesel: 1. The anti-knock property depends on the cetane number. A low cetane number makes fuel difficult to ignite, with a long ignition delay period and unstable engine operation. Conversely, a good ignition performance, short ignition delay period, uniform combustion, and stable operation are achieved. However, an excessively high cetane number can lead to incomplete local combustion and black smoke. 2. The evaluation indicators for volatility are distillation range and flash point. A lower 50% evaporation temperature indicates more light fractions in the oil, making the diesel engine easier to start. Lower 90% and 95% evaporation temperatures indicate fewer heavy fractions in the oil. The national standard stipulates that the flash point of -35 and -50 light diesel should not be lower than 45°C. 3. The evaluation indicators for fluidity are viscosity, freezing point, and cold filter plugging point. If the viscosity is too low, it is easy to leak from the gap between the plunger and pump barrel of the high-pressure oil pump. If it is too high, it will cause difficulty in fuel supply.
