TEST METHOD PROCEDURES
LEAK CHECK PROCEDURES
Before and after each test, each sample train is tested for leaks. Leakage rates are measured
and must not exceed 0.02 CFM or 4% of the sampling rate. Leak checks are performed checking
the entire sampling train, not just the dry gas meters. Pre-test and post-test leak checks are
conducted with a vacuum of 10 inches of mercury. Vacuum is monitored during each test and
the highest vacuum reached is then used for the post test vacuum value. If leakage limits are
not met, the test run is rejected. During, these tests the vacuum was typically less than 2 inches
of mercury. Thus, leakage rates reported are expected to be much higher than actual leakage
during the tests.
TUNNEL VELOCITY/FLOW MEASUREMENT
The tunnel velocity is calculated from a center point Pitot tube signal multiplied by an
adjustment factor. This factor is determined by a traverse of the tunnel as prescribed in EPA
Method 1. Final tunnel velocities and flow rates are calculated from EPA Method 2, Equation
6.9 and 6.10. (Tunnel cross sectional area is the average from both lines of traverse.)
Pitot tubes are cleaned before each test and leak checks are conducted after each test.
PM SAMPLING PROPORTIONALITY
Proportionality was calculated in accordance with ASTM E2515-11. The data and results are
included in Appendix B.
DEVIATIONS FROM STANDARD METHOD:
The following deviations were requested by EPA:
Changes to ASTM E3053-17 are:
1. Coal bed conditions prior to loading test fuel : The coal bed should be a level plane
Changes to ASTM E2515-11 must be as followed:
1- The filter temperature must be maintained between 80 and 90 Degrees F during testing.
2- Filters must be weighed in pairs to reduce weighing error propagation.
3- Sample filters must be Pall TX-40 or equivalent Teflon coated glass fiber, and of 47
4- Only one point is allowed outside the +/- 10% proportionality range per test run.
