D1740-96
Standard Test Method for Luminometer Numbers of Aviation Turbine Fuels

1.1 This test method² covers the measurement of the flame radiation characteristics of aviation turbine fuels and other similar distillate fuels expressed in terms of luminometer numbers. There is good correlation between smoke point (Test Method ASTM-D-1322) and luminometer number which is presented in Appendix XI.²

Note 1 - It is the intent of Subcommittee J to ballot to withdraw this test method when due for reapproval in 2006, because of very limited and declining use to determine compliance with aviation turbine fuel specifications.

SUSPENDED
