Laboratory method for assessing the deposit-forming tendency of diesel fuels

  • Published:
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The deposit-forming tendency of diesel fuels can be assessed in the laboratory by their maximal nonsmoking flame height (MNFH), GOST 4338-48.

  2. 2.

    The deposit-forming tendency of diesel fuels, which is a function of their hydrocarbon type composition, can be expressed by their ring coefficient.
