M
BSidb
– Weight of test fuel burned during test run segment i , dry basis, kg
ASTM E2779 equation (2)
M
BSidb
= (MS
Siwb
- M
ESiwb
)(100/(100 + FM))
Where,
M
SSiwb
=
weight of test fuel in hopper at start of test run segment i , wet basis, kg
M
ESiwb
=
weight of test fuel in hopper at end of test run segment i , wet basis, kg
Sample Calculation (from medium burn rate segment):
FM = 5.9 %
M
SSiwb
=
36.4 lbs
M
ESiwb
=
32.7 lbs
0.4536 = Converstion factor from lbs to kg
M
BSidb
= [( 36.4 x 0.4536) - ( 32.7 x 0.4536)] (100/(100 + 6 )
M
BSidb
=
1.6 kg
