    This document provides a nomogram and formula for determining the Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index (CCAI) of heavy fuel oils. The CCAI is derived from measurable fuel parameters like density and viscosity and provides a rough assessment of the fuel's ignition quality, though it is not a standardized testing method. An example calculation is shown using the density and viscosity of a sample fuel. While the CCAI has limitations, it has become widely used in publications as a classification for heavy fuel oils and engines.

    General

    Example: Ignition quality is an important fuel parameter. The


    reason why it does not appear in the international
    Viscosity: 180 cSt at 50°C specifications is that there are no standardized testing
    Density: 990 kg/m³ at 15°C method is non-existent. Therefore, parameters such
    as the Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index (CCAI)
    The combining straight line across density (990 kg/ are resorted to as an aid which is derived from
    m³) and viscosity (180 cSt) of a heavy fuel oil results determinable fuel parameters. According to our
    in CCAI (859). From CCAI, conclusions may be experience, only a rough assessment of the ignition
    derived with regard to the ignition qualities. quality of the heavy fuel oil is possible with the help
    of this method.
    CCAI may be calculated with the aid of the following
    formula: However, the CCAI has become so well-known in
    widespread publications that, in spite of the
    CCAI = D - 141 log (log (v + 0.85)) - 81 reservations mentioned above. We were compelled
    to classify the respective MAN B&W Diesel A/S,
    Holeby engines according to CCAI-rating, too.
