ASTM D1322-08

This document is not anASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of anASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately,ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.

1. Scope*
1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determination of the smoke point of kerosine and aviation turbine fuel.
NOTE 1—There is good correlation between Luminometer number (Test Method D1740) and smoke point which is represented in Appendix X1.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.

3. Terminology
3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:
3.1.1 aviation turbine fuel—refined petroleum distillate, generally used as a fuel for aviation gas turbines.
3.1.1.1 Discussion—Different grades are characterized by volatility ranges, freeze point, and by flash point.
3.1.2 kerosine—refined petroleum distillate, boiling between 140 and 300°C, generally used in lighting and heating
applications.
3.1.3 smoke point—the maximum height, in millimetres, of a smokeless flame of fuel burned in a wick-fed lamp of specified
design.

5. Significance and Use
5.1 This test method provides an indication of the relative smoke producing properties of kerosines and aviation turbine fuels
in a diffusion flame. The smoke point is related to the hydrocarbon type composition of such fuels. Generally the more aromatic
the fuel the smokier the flame. A high smoke point indicates a fuel of low smoke producing tendency.
