Glass in building - Determination of energy balance value - Calculation method (ISO 14438:2002)

This European Standard specifies a calculation method to determine the energy balance value of glazing. This
European Standard applies to transparent materials such as glass and combinations of glass used to glaze
windows in buildings.
This method is intended to evaluate the balance of heat loss and useful heat gain by solar radiation entering the
building through the glazing for a given period by means of an average rate of loss (or gain) of heat called the
energy balance value.
The method enables producers to compare the performance of their glazing products. The energy balance value
should not be used for energy use or heating capacity calculations in buildings.

Glas im Bauwesen - Bestimmung des Energiebilanz-Wertes - Berechnungsverfahren (ISO 14438:2002)

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Berechnungsverfahren zur Bestimmung des Energiebilanzwertes von Verglasungen fest. Die vorliegende Europäische Norm gilt für lichtdurchlässige Materialien, wie Glas und Kombinationen aus Glas, die für Verglasungen von Fenstern in Gebäuden angewendet werden.
Dieses Verfahren dient der Bewertung der Bilanz von Wärmeverlust und nützlichen Wärmegewinnen durch die Sonnenstrahlung, die durch die Verglasung für einen festgelegten Zeitraum in das Gebäude eintritt, mit Hilfe einer mittleren Verlust-(oder Gewinn-)Rate, die Energiebilanzwert genannt wird.
Hersteller können mit diesem Verfahren die Gebrauchstauglichkeit ihrer Verglasungsprodukte vergleichen. Der Energiebilanzwert sollte nicht für Wärmeausnutzungs- oder Wärmekapazitätsberechnungen in Gebäuden verwendet werden.

Verre dans la construction - Détermination de la valeur du bilan énergétique - Méthode de calcul (ISO 14438:2002)

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode de calcul servant à déterminer la valeur du bilan énergétique des vitrages. Elle s'applique aux matériaux transparents comme le verre ainsi qu'aux combinaisons de verres utilisées pour les vitres des bâtiments.
La présente méthode est destinée à évaluer, à partir de la différence entre la quantité utile de rayonnement solaire pénétrant dans un bâtiment par les vitrages et les déperditions de chaleur correspondantes pour une période de temps donnée, la déperdition thermique moyenne (ou le gain thermique moyen) qu'on appelle ici la valeur du bilan énergétique.
Elle permet aux producteurs de comparer les performances de leurs produits verriers. La valeur du bilan énergétique ne doit pas être utilisée pour les calculs de consommation d'énergie ou de capacité de chauffage des bâtiments.
