therefore the velocity of air flow at these two locations shall not exceed 1,5 m/s when the test object is

switched off. The air velocity in the room shall also not be greater than the mean velocity through the unit

inlet.

Unless otherwise stated in the technical documentation, the air inlet and air outlet orifices shall not be less

than 1m from the surfaces of the test room; this also applies to any measuring ducts.

The setting of the external static pressure difference on the air side for heat pumps with duct connection is

described by 4.4.1.4 of EN 14511-3:2018.

For heat pumps separated from the tank, the liquid flow rate has to be set on the liquid outlet side of the heat

pump to the nominal flow rate specified in the technical documentation.

The package shall be installed and connected for the test as specified in the installation instructions.

Temperature and pressure measuring points shall be situated in order to obtain significant mean values.

5 Determination of the energy consumption of the appliance
5.1 General
prEN 13203-2:2020, 5.1, is replaced by the new clause as follows:
"5.1 Basic principles for the measurements of the performance

This clause defines the test methods to apply for the determination of the energy consumption of the covered

appliances which consists of the following two preparation tests and the four measurement tests.

— [P1] Filling and storage volume (see 5.1.1);
— [P2] Stabilization at cold conditions (see 5.1.2);
— [M1] Heating up (see 5.1.3);

— [M2] Standby mode for electrical power input and gas input measurements (see 5.1.4);

— [M3] Tapping cycle application with all water draw-offs according to prEN 13203-2:2020, 5.2;

— [M4] Mixed water at 40 °C and reference hot water temperature (see "existing 7.7" OR "new 7.8").

The measurement steps 1 to 4 are performed according to in Figure 1.

Each individual test can be performed independently provided that its starting conditions are the same as the

ending conditions of the tests just before.

5.1.1 Filling of the storage

The empty storage tank of the appliance is weighted including the inlet and outlet taps or connections.

Then it is filled with water as stated in the installation and operation instructions at the pressure of the

incoming cold water. When it is filled, the water supply is cut off and the appliance is weighed, including the

taps or connections.

The difference between the two weights (mact) shall be converted into volume, in litres, according to the

following formula:
act
Vm= 100 (1)
ρ T
( )
where
Vm is the rated volume of the hot water storage tank, in l;
mact is the difference of the two weights, in kg;
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------

ρ(T) is the specific volume of cold water, in kg/m ;
T is the temperature of the water used to fill the tank, in °C.
This volume is to be reported in litres to the nearest one-tenth litres.
Filling of the storage are not applicable to heat pump combination heaters.

NOTE The temperature (T) reached after stabilisation (see 5.1.2) can be used to calculate the specific volume ρ(T).

5.1.2 Stabilization at cold

The appliance is kept at ambient conditions until all its parts have reached ambient conditions ± 1 K.

NOTE A waiting time of 24 h is enough to reach stabilisation.
5.1.3 Heating up time [M1]

The test consists of determining the heating up time (teh) necessary to heat the stored water from its initial

cold state temperature until the first time the gas boiler or the electric heat pump is turned off by the set

thermostat of the storage tank. The gas and/or electrical consumption are also measured.

Before launching the test, the cold water is circulated in the tank until the outlet temperature becomes equal

to the inlet temperature within the allowed variation specified (± 0,5 K).

When this initial state temperature of the cold water is reached, the appliance is switched on.

After this initial start of the appliance the gas and electrical supplies are left on for the duration of the test.

The heating up time (teh) and the corresponding gas (Qgas) and/or electrical (Weh-HP)consumptions shall be

measured from the moment the appliance is switched on until it is shut off by the thermostat of the storage

tank.
The gas consumption is calculated according to the following formula:
Q =K⋅ NCV⋅ V (2)
gas,eh g
where
Q is the gas energy consumption to heating up the tank, in kWh;
gas eh
V is the measured gas consumption during the heating up period, in m ;
NCV is the net calorific value (at 15 °C and 1013,25 mbar), in kWh/m ;

K is the correction constant and is calculated according to the following formula:

  

p is the saturated vapour pressure of water at tg (mbar); If a dry meter is used for

the measurement of the volume, the value of (ps) is equal to zero;
T is the gas temperature, in °C.

The total electrical energy consumption is calculated according to following formula:

W W− W (5)
eh-HP eh-M EL-Corr
where

Weh-HP is the total electrical energy consumption during the heating up duration (teh), in kWh;

Weh-M is the measured electrical energy consumption during the heating up duration, in kWh;

WEL-Corr is the correction due to electrical energy consumption of fan if the electric heat pump operates

during the heating up period, in kWh.
WEL-Corr is calculated according to the following formula:
V tp∆

Where
Ƞ is the efficiency of the fan;
Vair (t) is the nominal air flowrate, in m /s;
Δp is the measured external or internal static pressure difference, in Pa;
t is the heat up duration, in s.

If the electric heat pump did not operate during the heat up period the measured value is not corrected and is

determined by the following formula:
WW= (7)

5.1.4 Standby gas and electrical power input [M2]

This test can be launched just after the appliance shut off caused by the thermostat following the heating up

period.

The standby gas and/or electrical consumptions are measured over several on-off cycles of the appliance

initiated by the thermostat of the storage tank without any water draw-off.
This test shall be performed over a period not less than 48 h excep
