Aviation fuels - Test classification remembering

Oil industry in India stipulate various classification of group of tests naming Alphabetically like Test A, Test B etc. These are defined in Aviation product Quality Control Manual (AQCAM) at various stages of product manufacturing to Aircraft refuelling.

An easy way to remember various alphabetical tests associated to respective stages are tabulated below which field officers handling product will find very useful.

Above may be useful as training material.

- Excel Formula-Density Conversion to 15 deg C,  table ASTM 53 B - 1980,    Excel sheet giving the Density 15 deg C figures from given observed Density and observed temperature for petroleum product as derived from ASTM tables 53 B. Density conversion to 15 deg C matches exactly with the ASTM conversion tables 1980. Lists of Android/iOs Apps developed on Petroleum Calculation - see here.      (These apps convert Density/API gravity exactly as per ASTM tables 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 23a,23b, 24a,24b, 53a,53b, 54a,54b to standard temperature 15 C,  20 C and 60 F.)   Example:  Observed density is 792 kg/Cu. M and observed temperature is 29 deg C. Corresponding 15 deg C for this set of data comes 802.2  kg/Cu. M Excel Worksheet - green color cells  observed density and observed sample temperature are variables and Red color digits are the answer - density at 15 deg C.  Apps developed on Petroleum Calculations - see here. ...

Petroleum Products API Gravity conversion to 60F from observed temperature as per ASTM 5B  and volume Correction VCF as per Petroleum tables ASTM 6B using an App developed. Scrolling Down The App developed converts a) API Gravity at 60 Deg F from observed API Gravity and temperature and b) calculates the bulk volume from natural to volume at 60 deg F, US barrels at 60 deg F, US Gallons at 60F for Petroleum Products. Large volume of petroleum products moves from production to user refineries globally. Oil Industry uses ASTM tables published by API/IP/ASTM  to account Oil quantity on board of the tankers for calculating quantity. It may be noted that this App is using tables ASTM 5B and 6B,  for Petroleum Products and not for Crude Oil for which there are different ASTM tables for Corrections. See different Apps suiting this. US, Canada, Persian Gulf, etc where  FPS system   with API Gravity, US Barrels, and Deg F is more prevalent Standa...

Crude Oil API Gravity conversion to 60F from observed temperature as per ASTM 5A  and volume Correction VCF as per Petroleum tables ASTM 6A using an App developed. The App developed converts a) API Gravity at 60 Deg F from observed API Gravity and temperature and b) calculates the bulk volume from natural to volume at 60 deg F, US barrels at 60 deg F for Crude oil cargoes. Large volume of crude moves from production to user refineries globally. Oil Industry uses ASTM tables published by API/IP/ASTM  to account Oil quantity on board of the tankers for calculating quantity. It may be noted that this App is using tables ASTM 5A and 6A,  for Crude oil and not for refined petroleum products for which there are different ASTM tables for Corrections. See different Apps suiting this. US, Canada, Persian Gulf, etc where  FPS system   with API Gravity, US Barrels, and Deg F is more prevalent Standard temperature being 60 deg F.

An App is developed for Jet A-1 Density conversion to 15 C from observed temperature as per ASTM 53B.  Large volume of Jet A-1 after refining moves from production to airports globally. Oil Industry uses ASTM tables published by API/IP/ASTM  to account Oil quantity for calculating quantity. For insuring quality of these sensitive products density is the only convenient and easy factor to measure in the field outside the laboratories.  The density is measured at the ambient temperature and then converted to standard temperature say 15 or 20 deg C. The converted density at 15 deg C is compared with the parent or source density at 15 Deg C and the difference in this limited to a certain limit gives assurance of the Quality of the product.  JIG gives this variation in density at 15 Deg C as 3.0 Kg/Cu.M. Following publication is in metric system where mass is in Kg, volume is in Kg/Cu.M and temperature is in Centigrade and followed most of Europe, Asia, Afr...
