Heating systems in buildings - Method for calculation of system energy requirements and system efficiencies - Part 2-3: Space heating distribution systems

This European Standard provides a methodology to calculate/estimate the system thermal loss of water based distribution systems for heating and the auxiliary energy demand, as well as the recoverable part of each. The actual recovered energy depends on the gain to loss ratio. Different levels of accuracy, corresponding to the needs of the user and the input data available at each design stage of the project, are provided in this European Standard by different calculation methods, i.e. a detailed calculation method, a simplified calculation method and a method based on tabulated values. The general method of calculation can be applied for any time-step (hour, day, month or year).
Pipework lengths for the heating of decentralised, non-domestic ventilation systems equipment are to be calculated in the same way as for water based heating systems. For centralised, non-domestic ventilation systems equipment, the length is to be specified in accordance with its location.
NOTE   It is possible to calculate the system thermal loss and auxiliary energy demand for cooling systems with the same calculation methods as shown in this European Standard. Specifically, determination of auxiliary energy demand is based on the same assumptions for efficiency of pumps, because the efficiency curve applied is an approximation for inline and external motors. It needs to be decided by the standardisation group of CEN, whether or not the extension for cooling systems should be made in this European Standard. This is also valid for distribution systems in HVAC (in ducts) and also for special liquids.

Heizsysteme in Gebäuden - Verfahren zur Berechnung der Energieanforderungen und Nutzungsgrade der Anlagen - Teil 2-3: Wärmeverteilsysteme

Diese Norm enthält eine Methodik zur Berechnung/Abschätzung der Wärmeabgabe von Heizungs Warmwasser Verteilungssystemen, des Energiebedarfs für die Umwälzung sowie der zurück gewinnbaren Energie. Die tatsächlich zurück gewonnene Energie ist vom Gewinn/Verlust Verhältnis abhängig. In der Norm sind verschiedene Genauigkeitsstufen festgelegt, die den Bedürfnissen der Nutzer und den auf jeder Auslegungsstufe des Projekts verfügbaren Eingangsdaten entsprechen. Das allgemeine Berechnungsverfahren kann für jeden Zeitschritt (Stunde, Tag, Monat oder Jahr) angewendet werden.
ANMERKUNG   Die Wärmeübergabe und der Energiebedarf der Umwälzung für Kühlsysteme können mit den in dieser Norm angegebenen Verfahren ebenfalls berechnet werden. Insbesondere die Bestimmung des Energiebedarfs für die Umwälzung beruht auf den gleichen Annahmen zum Wirkungsgrad der Pumpen, da es sich bei der Normkurve um eine Annäherung für Nass und Trockenläufer-Pumpen handelt. Die Normungsgruppe des CEN muss die Entscheidung treffen, ob die Erweiterung auf die Kühlsysteme in diese Norm aufgenommen wird. Dies gilt auch für Verteilungssysteme in HLK Anlagen sowie auch für spezielle Flüssigkeiten.

Systemes de chauffage dans les bâtiments - Méthode de calcul des besoins énergétiques et d'efficacité des systemes - Partie 2-3: Systemes de distribution de chauffage des locaux

La présente Norme européenne fournit une méthodologie de calcul/d’estimation des pertes thermiques du système de distribution pour les systèmes de chauffage à eau et de la consommation d’énergie des auxiliaires, ainsi que de la partie récupérable de chacune. L’énergie réellement récupérée dépend du rapport des gains sur les pertes. Différents niveaux de précision, correspondant aux besoins de l’utilisateur et aux données d’entrée disponibles à chaque phase de conception du projet, sont fournis dans la présente Norme européenne par différentes méthodes de calcul, c’est-à-dire une méthode de calcul détaillée, une méthode de calcul simplifiée et une méthode basée sur des tableaux de valeurs. La méthode de calcul générale peut être appliquée pour tout pas de temps (heure, jour, mois ou année).
Les longueurs des conduites pour le chauffage des systèmes de ventilation non résidentiels, décentralisés, doivent être calculées de la même manière que pour les systèmes de chauffage à eau. Pour les systèmes de ventilation non résidentiels, centralisés, la longueur doit être spécifiée en fonction de son emplacement.
NOTE   Il est possible de calculer les pertes thermiques du système et la consommation d’énergie des auxiliaires pour les systèmes de refroidissement à l’aide de méthodes de calcul identiques à celles fournies dans la présente Norme européenne. Spécifiquement, la détermination de la consommation d’énergie des auxiliaires est basée sur les mêmes hypothèses pour le rendement des pompes, car la courbe de rendement utilisée est une approximation pour les moteurs immergés ou non. Le groupe de normalisation du CEN doit décider s’il convient de réaliser l’extension aux systèmes de refroidissement dans la présente Norme européenne. Cela est aussi valable pour les systèmes de distribution en CVCA (dans les conduites) ainsi que pour les liquides spéciaux.

EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 4 Foreword This document (EN 15316-2-3:2007) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 228 “Heating systems in buildings”, the secretariat of which is held by DS. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by January 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by January 2008. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association (Mandate M/343), and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2002/91/EC on the energy performance of buildings (EPBD). It forms part of a series of standards aimed at European harmonisation of the methodology for calculation of the energy performance of buildings. An overview of the whole set of standards is given in prCEN/TR 15615,. The subjects covered by CEN/TC 228 are the following:  design of heating systems (water based, electrical etc.);  installation of heating systems;  commissioning of heating systems;  instructions for operation, maintenance and use of heating systems;  methods for calculation of the design heat loss and heat loads;  methods for calculation of the energy performance of heating systems. Heating systems also include the effect of attached systems such as hot water production systems. All these standards are systems standards, i.e. they are based on requirements addressed to the system as a whole and not dealing with requirements to the products within the system. Where possible, reference is made to other European or International Standards, a.o. product standards. However, use of products complying with relevant product standards is no guarantee of compliance with the system requirements. The requirements are mainly expressed as functional requirements, i.e. requirements dealing with the function of the system and not specifying shape, material, dimensions or the like.
The guidelines describe ways to meet the requirements, but other ways to fulfil the functional requirements might be used if fulfilment can be proved. Heating systems differ among the member countries due to climate, traditions and national regulations. In some cases requirements are given as classes so national or individual needs may be accommodated. In cases where the standards contradict with national regulations, the latter should be followed. EN 15316 Heating systems in buildings — Method for calculation of system energy requirements and system efficiencies consists of the following parts: Part 1: General



EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 5 Part 2-1: Space heating emission systems Part 2-3: Space heating distribution systems Part 3-1: Domestic hot water systems, characterisation of needs (tapping requirements) Part 3-2: Domestic hot water systems, distribution Part 3-3: Domestic hot water systems, generation Part 4-1: Space heating generation systems, combustion systems (boilers) Part 4-2: Space heating generation systems, heat pump systems Part 4-3: Heat generation systems, thermal solar systems Part 4-4: Heat generation systems, building-integrated cogeneration systems Part 4-5: Space heating generation systems, the performance and quality of district heating and large volume systems Part 4-6: Heat generation systems, photovoltaic systems Part 4-7: Space heating generation systems, biomass combustion systems According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.



EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 6 Introduction In a distribution system, energy is transported by a fluid from the heat generation to the heat emission. As the distribution system is not adiabatic, part of the energy carried is emitted to the surrounding environment. Energy is also required to distribute the heat carrier fluid within the distribution system. In most cases this is electrical energy required by the circulation pumps. This leads to additional thermal and electrical energy demand. The thermal energy emitted by the distribution system and the electrical energy required for the distribution, may partially be recovered as heat, if the distribution system is placed inside the heated envelope of the building. This European Standard provides three methods of calculation. The detailed calculation method describes the basics and the physical background of the general calculation method. The required input data are part of the detailed project data assumed to be available (such as length of pipes, type of insulation, manufacturer's data for the pumps etc.). The detailed calculation method provides the most accurate energy demand and heat emission. For the simplified calculation method, some assumptions are made for the most relevant cases, reducing the required input data (e.g. the lengths of pipes are calculated by approximations depending on the outer dimensions of the building and efficiency of pumps is approximated). This method may be applied if only few data are available (in general at an early stage of design). With the simplified calculation method, the calculated energy demand is generally higher than the calculated energy demand by the detailed calculation method. The assumptions made for the simplified method depend on national design, and therefore this method is part of informative Annex A. The tabulated calculation method is based on the simplified calculation method, with some further assumptions being made. Only input data for the most important influences are required with this method. The further assumptions made for this method depend on national design as well, and therefore the tabulated method is also part of informative Annex A. Other influences, which are not reflected by the tabulated values, shall be calculated by the simplified or the detailed calculation method. The energy demand determined from the tabulated calculation method is generally higher than the calculated energy demand by the simplified calculation method. Use of this method is possible with a minimum of input data. The general calculation method for the electrical energy demand of pumps consists of two parts. The first part is calculation of the hydraulic demand of the distribution system, and the second part is calculation of the expenditure energy factor of the pump. Here, it is possible to combine the detailed and the simplified calculation method. For example, calculation of pressure loss and flow may be done by the detailed calculation method and calculation of the expenditure energy factor may be done by the simplified calculation method (when the data of the building are available and the data of the pump are not available) or vice versa. In national annexes, the simplified calculation method as well as the tabulated calculation method could be applied through a.o. relevant boundary conditions of each country, thus facilitating easy calculations and quick results. In national annexes, it is only allowed to change the boundary conditions and other assumptions. The calculation methods as described are to be applied. The recoverable part of the auxiliary energy demand is given as a fixed ratio and is therefore also easy to determine.



EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard provides a methodology to calculate/estimate the system thermal loss of water based distribution systems for heating and the auxiliary energy demand, as well as the recoverable part of each. The actual recovered energy depends on the gain to loss ratio. Different levels of accuracy, corresponding to the needs of the user and the input data available at each design stage of the project, are provided in this European Standard by different calculation methods, i.e. a detailed calculation method, a simplified calculation method and a method based on tabulated values. The general method of calculation can be applied for any time-step (hour, day, month or year). Pipework lengths for the heating of decentralised, non-domestic ventilation systems equipment are to be calculated in the same way as for water based heating systems. For centralised, non-domestic ventilation systems equipment, the length is to be specified in accordance with its location. NOTE It is possible to calculate the system thermal loss and auxiliary energy demand for cooling systems with the same calculation methods as shown in this European Standard. Specifically, determination of auxiliary energy demand is based on the same assumptions for efficiency of pumps, because the efficiency curve applied is an approximation for inline and external motors. It needs to be decided by the standardisation group of CEN, whether or not the extension for cooling systems should be made in this European Standard. This is also valid for distribution systems in HVAC (in ducts) and also for special liquids. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 8 NOTE 1 This includes energy for fans, pumps, electronics etc. Electrical energy input to a ventilation system for air transport and heat recovery is not considered as auxiliary energy, but as energy use for ventilation. NOTE 2 In EN ISO 9488, the energy used for pumps and valves is called "parasitic energy". 3.5 heat recovery heat generated by a technical building system or linked to a building use (e.g. domestic hot water) which is utilised directly in the related system to lower the heat input and which would otherwise be wasted (e.g. preheating of the combustion air by flue gas heat exchanger) 3.6 system thermal loss thermal loss from a technical building system for heating, cooling, domestic hot water, humidification, dehumidification, ventilation or lighting that does not contribute to the useful output of the system NOTE Thermal energy recovered directly in the subsystem is not considered as a system thermal loss but as heat recovery and directly treated in the related system standard. 3.7 recoverable system thermal loss part of a system thermal loss which can be recovered to lower either the energy need for heating or cooling or the energy use of the heating or cooling system 3.8 recovered system thermal loss part of the recoverable system thermal loss which has been recovered to lower either the energy need for heating or cooling or the energy use of the heating or cooling system 3.9 calculation step discrete time interval for the calculation of the energy needs and uses for heating, cooling, humidification and dehumidification NOTE Typical discrete time intervals are one hour, one month or one heating and/or cooling season, operating modes and bins. 3.10 calculation period period of time over which the calculation is performed NOTE The calculation period can be divided into a number of calculation steps. 3.11 heating or cooling season period of the year during which a significant amount of energy for heating or cooling is needed NOTE The season lengths are used to determine the operation period of technical systems.

As shown in Figure 1, a heating system can be divided in three parts – emission and control, distribution and generation. A simple heating system has no buffer-storage, no distributor/collector, and only one pump is applied. Larger heating systems comprise more than one secondary heating circuit with different emitters. Often, such larger heating systems comprise also more than one heat generator with either one common primary heating circuit or individual primary heating circuits (in Figure 1, only one primary heating circuit is shown). The subdivision of the heating system into primary and secondary circuits is given by any hydraulic separator, which can be a buffer-storage with a large volume or a hydraulic separator with a small volume. Anyhow, the



EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 11 calculation method is valid for a closed heating circuit, and therefore the equations have to be applied for each circuit taking into account the corresponding values.

EN 15316-2-3:2007 (E) 12 Controls in distribution systems are thermostatic valves at the emitter which throttles the flow or room thermostats which shut on/off the pump. Only if the flow is throttled the control of the pump (speed control) is valid. 6 Auxiliary energy demand 6.1 General The auxiliary energy demand of hydraulic networks depends on the distributed flow, the pressure drop and the operation condition of the circulation pump. While the design flow and pressure drop is important for determining the pump size, the part load factor determines the energy demand in a time step. The hydraulic power at the design point can be calculated from physical basics. However, for calculation of the hydraulic power during operation, this can only be achieved by a simulation. Therefore, for the detailed calculation method in this standard, correction factors are applied, which represent the most important influ
