Introduction
The set of EPB standards, Technical Reports and supporting tools
In order to facilitate the necessary overall consistency and coherence, in terminology, approach,
input/output relations and formats, for the whole set of EPB-standards, the following documents and
tools are available:
a) a document with basic principles to be followed in drafting EPB-standards: CEN/TS 16628, Energy
Performance of Buildings — Basic Principles for the set of EPB standards [1];
b) a document with detailed technical rules to be followed in drafting EPB-standards; CEN/TS 16629,
Energy Performance of Buildings — Detailed Technical Rules for the set of EPB-standards [2]; and
c) the detailed technical rules are the basis for the following tools:
1) a common template for each EPB-standard, including specific drafting instructions for the
relevant clauses,
2) a common template for each technical report that accompanies an EPB standard or a cluster of
EPB standards, including specific drafting instructions for the relevant clauses, and
3) a common template for the spreadsheet that accompanies each EPB standard, to demonstrate
the correctness of the EPB calculation procedures.
Each EPB-standard follows the basic principles and the detailed technical rules and relates to the
overarching EPB-standard, EN ISO 52000-1 [3].
One of the main purposes of the revision of the EPB-standards is to enable that laws and regulations
directly refer to the EPB-standards and make compliance with them compulsory. This requires that the
set of EPB-standards consists of a systematic, clear, comprehensive and unambiguous set of energy
performance procedures. The number of options provided is kept as low as possible, taking into
account national and regional differences in climate, culture and building tradition, policy and legal
frameworks (subsidiarity principle). For each option, an informative default option is provided
(Annex B).
Rationale behind the EPB Technical Reports
There is a risk that the purpose and limitations of the EPB standards will be misunderstood, unless the
background and context to their contents – and the thinking behind them – is explained in some detail
to readers of the standards. Consequently, various types of informative contents are recorded and made
available for users to properly understand, apply and nationally or regionally implement the EPB
standards.
If this explanation would have been attempted in the standards themselves, the result is likely to be
confusing and cumbersome, especially if the standards are implemented or referenced in national or
regional building codes.
Therefore each EPB standard is accompanied by an informative technical report, like this one, where all
informative content is collected, to ensure a clear separation between normative and informative
contents (see CEN/TS 16629 [2]):
— to avoid flooding and confusing the actual normative part with informative content;
— to reduce the page count of the actual standard; and
— to facilitate understanding of the set of EPB standards.

This was also one of the main recommendations from the European CENSE project [5] that laid the
foundation for the preparation of the set of EPB standards.
This Technical Report
This Technical Report accompanies the suite of EPB standards on ventilation for buildings. It relates to
the European standard EN 16798-13, which forms part of a set of standards related to the evaluation of
the energy performance of buildings (EPB).
The role and the positioning of the accompanied standard in the set of EPB standards is defined in the
Introduction to the standard.
Accompanying spreadsheets
Concerning the accompanied standard EN 16798-13, the following spreadsheets were produced:
— EN 16798-13, Method A;
— EN 16798-13, Method B, example 1; and
— EN 16798-13, Method B, example 2.
In this Technical Report, examples of each of these calculation sheets are included.

5 Brief description of the methods and routing
5.1 Output of the method
No additional information beyond the accompanied standard.
5.2 General description of the methods
5.2.1 Method A
The method is designed for an hourly calculation, based on the operational conditions and system
design possibilities. It covers the cooling generator calculation including multiple generators, the heat
rejection devices and its control, and includes the possibility of “free cooling” in form of bypassing the
generator and using the heat rejection device directly when the climate conditions allow for. Also, heat
to be rejected is offered as a potential heat to be recovered on the heating/domestic hot water side.

CEN/TR 16798-14:2017 (E)
Three different generator types are distinguished: compression chillers, absorption chillers and a
“generic” type labelled “OTHER”, to cover e.g. the direct use of heat sinks like ground (boreholes),
ground water or surface water.
Three approaches are offered to calculate the compression chiller characteristics:
— characteristics based on EN 14825 values;
— characteristics based on one nominal EER (EN 14511 (all parts)); and
— unknown performance data.
For the heat rejection, dry, wet and mixed mode (hybrid) heat rejecters are covered as well as the use of
other heat sinks as ground, ground water or surface water, in association with the respective control
options.
5.2.2 Method B
The method is designed for an hourly or monthly calculation, based on the operational conditions and
system design possibilities. It covers the cooling generator calculation including the heat rejection and
includes the possibility of “free cooling” in form of bypassing the generator and using the heat rejection
device directly when the climate conditions allow for. Also, heat to be rejected is offered as a potential
heat to be recovered on the heating/domestic hot water side.
Two different generator types are distinguished: compression chillers, absorption chillers. Moreover,
direct-evaporating room air-conditioning systems are also applicable. See Method A for other systems,
such as, the direct use of heat sinks like ground (boreholes), ground water or surface water. Tabulated
or measured part-load data should be employed for the evaluation of the part-load behaviour.
For the heat rejection, dry, wet and mixed mode (hybrid) heat rejecters are covered.
The calculation includes the operation and control of multi generator set ups.
5.3 Selection criteria between the methods
The criteria for method selection are summarized in Table 1.

The method is designed for an hourly calculation interval.
Applications to any other calculation intervals and bins add complexity. An application in a bin method
structure is possible, if the load distribution to the temperature bins can be reasonably determined. An
example calculation for this, originating from EN 15243, is given in Annex D.
Refer to method B for longer calculation intervals.
