mixture as follows: 5.3.1 Calculate the partial motor octane number of each
Relative mass of component 5 ~sg8 3 C!/100 (2)
component in the mixture to the nearest 0.1 MON as follows:
Partial motor octane number of component 5 ~m 3 C!/100 (3)
where:
sg8 = relative density of the pure component at 15.6°C where:
(60°F) (see Table 1), and m = motor octane number of component (see Table 1), and
C = liquid volume percent of component in the mixture. C = liquid volume percent of component in mixture.
5.2.2 Add the relative mass of all components, rounding the 5.3.2 Add the partial motor octane numbers of all compo-
total to three decimal places. The total is reported as the nents and round the total to the nearest one-half number. The
relative density of the mixture. total is reported as the calculated motor octane number of the
mixture.
