(実施例1)
 燃料組成物として、下記表1に示す組成の燃料組成物を準備した。なお、燃料組成物の組成は、JIS K 2536-2「石油製品-成分試験方法 第2部:ガスクロマトグラフによる全成分の求め方」により測定された値を示す。準備した燃料組成物を用いて、以下の方法でリーン限界の測定を行った。結果を表1に示す。
(Example 1)
As the fuel composition, a fuel composition having the composition shown in Table 1 below was prepared. The composition of the fuel composition shows the value measured by JIS K 2536-2 "Petroleum products-Component test method Part 2: How to obtain all components by gas chromatography". Using the prepared fuel composition, the lean limit was measured by the following method. The results are shown in Table 1.
<リーン限界の測定>
 リーン限界は、下記の試験エンジンを使用し、回転数2000rpm、図示平均有効圧力800kPa、トルク最大となる最小進角点火時期(MBT)の条件下で空気過剰率を変更することで測定した。リーン限界は、図示平均有効圧力の変動率が3%を超える点における空気過剰率とした。なお、空気過剰率とは試験時の混合気の空燃比を燃料組成物の理論空燃比で除したものであり、当量比φの逆数となる。
(試験エンジン)
 エンジン:単気筒
 排気量:563cc
 噴射方式:ポート噴射式
<Measurement of lean limit>
The lean limit was measured using the following test engine by changing the excess air ratio under the conditions of rotation speed 2000 rpm, shown mean effective pressure 800 kPa, and minimum advance ignition timing (MBT) at which torque is maximized. The lean limit was the excess air rate at the point where the volatility of the indicated mean effective pressure exceeds 3%. The excess air ratio is the air-fuel ratio of the air-fuel mixture at the time of the test divided by the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio of the fuel composition, and is the reciprocal of the equivalent ratio φ.
