OPERATION, ~~A24C!, AND CALI3RACION

OF t~ S)~ER ~iISSION GERERAT~

A. Introduction

To fuLEiU its functi~n as a training and certification device for

inspection and enforcement personnel. The smoke generator is designed

to provide an effluent of black and white smoke of kno~m opacity. Th~

black smoke is generated through a fire box chamber La which the

toluene flow is controlled. This produces incomplete comoustion and

varies the oucout opacity through the stack. White smoke is ~roduced

by’ injecting dieseL fuel. into a hot muffler which vaporizes the fuel

and creates a white effluent output through the stack.

A photocell. and incandescent light source is used to measure the

density’ of the plume,. The photocel.l output is transmitted to a strip

chart recorder for visual and permanent record of the output opacity.

3. Zau4oment

the smoke emission generator system consists of the following:

1. PhotoceLl, Selenium type having a spectral response similar

to the human eye.

~ 2. Lamp, 11.5-125 VAC, 50-watt incaodesceac, reflective flood.

3. Strip chart recorders, ,Sristol and Escerline Angus,

0—100 my range.

4. Constant voltage regulator, 120 YAC constant output voltage,

250 voLt amp capacity.

5. Smoke emission generator, Trailer, fire box, fuel Hues.

6. Gas generator, Portable, 1300 watt generator.

C. Recuired EPA Smoke Generator Soecifinat~oos

Any smoke generator used for the purposes of smoke test certification

shall be equinoed mith a smoke meter installed to measure opacity across

the diameter of the smoke generator stack, the smoke nets: cutput shall

display in-stack opacity based uoon a path Length equal to the stack

exit aiamecer, on a fulL 0 to LOG pertenc char: :ecor~er scale. The

~ F. Generatj~ of 3lack and hite Smoke

1. 2lack Smoke

A tvo-c~s~a. incinerator or “fire box” is used to burn toluene with

the amount. of air for combustion fLied. The fuel flow is varied by

using a control. valve Lu the fuel line. !xcasa fuel uses incomplete

combustion using unburned carbon to leave the chamber as black smoke.

The variation of fuel. effectively causes different ratios of air to

fuel. The change of combustion efficiency varies the output opacity

of the plume as it La drawn threagn the flue, mixed with dilution air

by the ind~ctjo~ fan, and forced up through the stack. (see Zigure I.)

2. White Smoke

White smoke is induced by injecting diesel fuel through a needle valve

into the exhaust maui~o1d of a portable gasoline engine. The diesel

fuel is atomized and vaporized by the (10000 F) high temperature, high

velocity exhaust g sea of the engine. The opacity of the smoke is con

troLled by varying the L~je~tj~~ rate of the fuel, into the exhaust lice.

The smoke from the exhaust is drawn through the same induction fan that

is used for black smoke7 mi.xad with dilution air, and forced up through

the stack. (see. ?igure 1.)

C. transmissomac~.

the plume is forced up through the stack past a transmissonecer which

consLst~ aizpl’, of a photocell and a light source sensitive to the

phoeoptj~ light range similar to the human eye. The output of the

photocell is directly pr000rtional to the amount of Light falling i~pon

the cell. Smoke scops and fans (see Figure 1) prevent smoke from the

stack coming in contact with the cell or light source and thereby

affecting the true reading. The output. of the cell is connected to a

strip chart recorder calibrated from 0-100 miLlivolts full scale. the

photocell output is read directly on the scrip chart recorder in opacLty

or Riuglemanc equivalents. The light source is kept at a constant

Light intensity using a constant voltage regulator. This prevents any

inherent errors caused by light intensity variation resulting from line

voltage changes. The photocell output is thus otly affected by the

changing plume de~sicy.

a. CaliSration

the calibration procedure is very simple and accurate to perform. The

ele.tronjcs of the smoke emission generator are turned on and aLLowed to

stabilize for 30 minutes. Then the system zero (lO0~ oPacity) La set by

blocking the tight source to the photocell. Sy,ste~m full scale (zero

opacity) is adjusted with f’.ill tight intensity and using a potentiomacer

in th system to set the full scale recorder deflection, the error is

then checked for 1 hour for zero and span drift. The zero and svan

drift over this period should be less than ± 1% error. A.ftar verifi

cation of span and drift commliance, Wracten neutral density filters

of different densities are inserted into the tight path A total, of

5 non-consecutive readings of the different filters (10, 20, 40, 50,

63, 30~) are recorded., A calibration curve is then drawn from this

data and a new scala is placed on the strip chart recorder. The cali

bration error m~sr be less than + 3~, of full scale.

Calibrat±on is checked before each lab session by reinserting the

neutral density filters and validating the correct reading on the

strip chart recorder.

the design specifications for smoke generators proposed by EPA are

very restrictive. The Arinona snok generator is within all tolerances

and speciiicat~ons of the EPA proposed performance standards. The

output accuracy with .the new modifications on the smoke emission gen

erator have made the Arizona Department of aealth Services generator

a model that can be used by other agencies to bring their equipment up

to the new EPA pro~osad standards.

1.2 SOURCE TEST PLANNING AND APPROVAL

Mass emissions tests for regulated pollutants is required of all

sources subject to air pollution control for verification of compliance

with applicable Arizona regulations, unless compliance can be assured

and documented by agency engineering analysis confirmed by on—site inspec

tion. Stationary sources are notified and must provide acceptable test

facilities and test plans for Bureau approval prior to the conduct of

compliance or investigative tests. Minimum facilities for stack sampling

are prescribed in ERhibit 1.2—1.

Verification of compliance is required for all major emission points

within the source facilities as a prerequisite to the issuance or renewal

of air pollution control operation permits. Advance notification of test

schedules is required to facilitate Bureau observation of test perfor

mance. Major sources having multiple emission points submit facility

test schedules assuring annual testing of major emission sources and multiyear rotation of minor emission point verification. When identical or

essentially similar air pollution control devices are utilized, compli

ance testing may be authorized on a sampling basis.

Test plans are reviewed by the Bureau to assure the technical and

legal acceptability of test results. Bureau approval of test plans and

any approval of variations from published test procedures is recorded

and documented (Exhibit 1.2-2).
