1.1本试验方法包括评估燃烧馏出燃料的烟气中的烟密度。它主要用于燃烧煤油或加热油的家用加热设备。它可以在实验室或现场用于比较清洁燃烧的燃料或比较加热设备。 1.2以国际单位制表示的数值应视为标准值。本标准不包括其他计量单位。 1.2.1也使用任意和相对单位。 1.3 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全和健康实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 ====意义和用途====== 本试验方法提供了一种将家用供暖设备中的烟雾产生控制在可接受水平的方法。烟雾密度过高会因热量而对效率产生不利影响- 换热器结垢。 本试验方法涵盖的烟密度范围与家用供暖应用特别相关。如以下比较所示，与其他几种烟雾测试相比，它对少量烟雾更敏感:

1.1 This test method covers the evaluation of smoke density in the flue gases from burning distillate fuels. It is intended primarily for use with home heating equipment burning kerosine or heating oils. It can be used in the laboratory or in the field to compare fuels for clean burning or to compare heating equipment. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.2.1 Arbitrary and relative units are also used. 1.3 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. ====== Significance And Use ====== This test method provides a means of controlling smoke production in home heating equipment to an acceptable level. Excessive smoke density adversely affects efficiency by heat-exchanger fouling. The range of smoke densities covered by this test method is that which has been found particularly pertinent to home-heating application. It is more sensitive to small amounts of smoke than several other smoke tests as indicated in the following comparison:
