M – Weight of start-up fuel, dry basis, lb (kg)
SUdb
ASTM E3053 equation (2)
M = (M )(100/(100 + MC
SUdb SUwb
Where,
M Total weight of start-up fuel pieces, wet basis, lb (kg)
=
SUwb
MC
= Average fuel moisture of the piece(s) from which start-up fuel was split, % dry basis
SU
Sample Calculation:
M = 4.03
SUwb
MC = 19.8
SU
M = 4.0 (100/(100+ 19.8 )
