Not illustrated. 1920 Excerpt: . . . boiling point and lighter in gravity than kerosene. It includes all of them that are not wild or which will stay in a reasonably corked container and running as heavy in gravity as motor vehicles can start and navigate under. It usually includes all the old materials called variously petroleum spirit, petrol, benzine, etc. Formerly, that which distilled below 1500 C. was spirit or gasoline, 150-2700 C. was kerosene and 270 C. up was heavy oils. This was only conventional. Refineries ran largely on gravity. The consumer became acquainted with a specific gravity test. It was easy to perform and the refiner cut his fractions at various gravities in order to have his cuts average some other gravity required in the trade. The flash point is the lowest temperature to which the oil need be heated under a fixed set of conditions to give off vapors in sufficient quantity when mixed with air to explode upon the approach of a flame. The burning point or fire test is the lowest temperature at which oil will give off sufficient vapors to burn continuously when ignited. The Flash Point and Burning Point Tests are arbitrary. They are not measures of rigorous constants yet they are capable of much refinement. They are accurate determinations of the practical effects of complex factors. For these reasons the values as determined are susceptible to influence from many sources among which may be mentioned: 1. Barometric Pressure. 2. Nature of bath as a source of heat. 3. Design of oil cup. 4. Features of thermometer. 5. Rate of heating. 6. Effect of prolonged heating or cooling. 7. Manipulation of test. (Manner flame is applied for flashing, etc. ) 8. Room temperature and conditions. 9. Initial temperature of oil being tested. 10. Influence . . . This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
