5 Control heating systems, main design rules
5.1 Control heating systems, main design rules, general
An efficient heating control system consists of integrated functions applied to all parts of the water
heating system: emission or room control by TRV or RTC, flow temperature control by OTC control, FSS,
OSS, pumps and generators sequencing and controls, thermal storage management, cost optimization of
thermal resources taking account of smart metering, predictable or detected occupancy.
5.2 Partitioning control heating zones in buildings
5.2.1 General
To efficiently control heating, the flow temperature level of the generation and distribution system should
satisfy heat demand to the lowest flow temperature. For this purpose, flow temperature is compensated
by outside temperature and scheduled for intermittent heating in relation to conditions of use. For
efficiency of control systems:
— The heating system distribution building should be partitioned into zones or spaces with uniform
conditions of use.
Partitioning of heating systems described in EN ISO 52000-1:2017, Clause 10, D.2, D.3, may usefully be
applied for the design of heating systems.
— The zone partitioning of the building should take into account thermal characteristics of emitters (all
identical emitters) of a zone.
— BAC heating control system should have multiple controls and intermittent scheduling adapted to
zones or spaces conditions of use. Special attention should be given to keep watch for update set
points and schedulers to real conditions of use and needs, during exploitation.
To satisfy these indications, size of zones should be limited.
2
NOTE 1 An indication is given in EN 15316-3:2017, A.2: limit zones area to 1 000 m (one pump for a maximum
2
of 1 000 m ).
As a general rule, heating control systems involves integrating many functions applied to central
(generation, storage), zone (distribution) and room (emission) parts of heating systems.
OTC control, OSS and complementary integrated functions are specified in EN 12098-1:2022 and fulfil
items in EN ISO 52120-1:2022, Table 5, functions 1.1 to 1.10.
NOTE 2 Better control and scheduling of heating systems imply a data communication network linking control
devices for integration of these functions and other technical building management capabilities for energy
performance.
For these parts, objectives of control functions are the lowest flow temperature, the longest reduced or
stop heat generation periods, and pumps operation.
Generation (see EN 15316-4-1) and distribution (see EN 15316–3:2017) parts are controlled acting
water flow temperature whilst emission is controlled via the flow through emitters.
These central controls apply to buildings, zones, and spaces (see Figure 1), taking into account thermal
characteristics and conditions of use (see EN ISO 52000-1:2017).
Emitters of a zone or space controlled by an OTC controller should be of the same model, for conformity
with a single heating curve shape common to all emitters of the controlled zone, i.e. do not mix different
types of steel radiators, heating floor or fan coil on a distribution controlled by an OTC controller.

CEN/TR 12098-6:2022 (E)
5.2.2 Emission control
Individual control of emitters or RTC completes central control by individual emitter’s controllers acting
flow through emitters. The aim of individual control consists in adapting conditions of operation
(individual set point, individual scheduling) to consumers' needs (see EN ISO 52120-1:2022, Figure 3)
and to compensate room heat gains, reducing heating for comfort and energy saving.
However, individual room temperature control performance does not depend only on individual
controllers; it depends also on the flow temperature central (generation, distribution) control, mainly for
these cases:
— Emitters are not equipped with efficient electronic individual RTC (conform to EN 15500-1:2017).
— Users are not encouraged to adapt the set point of their room temperature controller considering
their comfort needs related to energy consumption.
— Heated rooms or spaces do not permit to measure a representative temperature for individual
(closed loop) RTC, e.g.: entrance, corridor, reception hall, exhibition hall, atrium. Emission control is
operated only by the flow temperature control (generation, distribution parts).
However:
— For accuracy of a room controller, the flow temperature of emitters should be adapted to the heating
load, i.e. related to the main influence, the outside temperature. OTC control improves control
efficiently of individual controllers limiting the role of these controllers to compensate heat gains and
avoiding hanging process of these closed control loops.
— To avoid energy wasting by unusual use, inattentive settings or defaults of room controllers, the
central OTC control limit the higher room temperature able to be reached.
EXAMPLE Room temperature able to be reached by OTC control may be limited to 22 °C, room controller
reduces this level, modulating flow through emitter.

6.1.2 OTC generation and storage impact
Flow temperature control improves efficiency generators, minimizes heat losses of tanks and associated
equipment (see EN 15316-4-1:2017).
When controlling flow temperature to the lowest during normal conditions of use, stopping or reducing
heating during reduced heating needs periods (intermittent control during heating season) and stopping
heating (summer/winter switch), the effects of OTC control impact on generation part are:
— Improve efficiency of generators, reduce losses. EN 15316-3:2017 gives algorithms to calculate
efficiency related to the mean temperature.
— Reduce heat losses of thermal storages, pipes, auxiliaries, and other equipment (e.g. valves). The
EN 15316 series gives algorithms to calculate heat losses for these periods.
— Reduce pumps consumption during the same intermittent periods and summer-winter switch. The
EN 15316 series gives algorithms to calculate pump consumptions for these periods

5 Control heating systems, main design rules
5.1 Control heating systems, main design rules, general
An efficient heating control system consists of integrated functions applied to all parts of the water
heating system: emission or room control by TRV or RTC, flow temperature control by OTC control, FSS,
OSS, pumps and generators sequencing and controls, thermal storage management, cost optimization of
thermal resources taking account of smart metering, predictable or detected occupancy.
5.2 Partitioning control heating zones in buildings
5.2.1 General
To efficiently control heating, the flow temperature level of the generation and distribution system should
satisfy heat demand to the lowest flow temperature. For this purpose, flow temperature is compensated
by outside temperature and scheduled for intermittent heating in relation to conditions of use. For
efficiency of control systems:
— The heating system distribution building should be partitioned into zones or spaces with uniform
conditions of use;
Partitioning of heating systems described in EN 52000-1:2017, Clause 10, D.2, D.3, may usefully be
applied for the design of heating systems.
— The zone partitioning of the building should take into account thermal characteristics of emitters (all
identical emitters) of a zone;
— BAC heating control system should have multiple controls and intermittent scheduling adapted to
zones or spaces conditions of use. Special attention should be given to keep watch for update set
points and schedulers to real conditions of use and needs, during exploitation.
To satisfy these indications, size of zones should be limited.
2
NOTE 1 An indication is given in EN 15316-3:2017, A.2: limit zones area to 1 000 m (one pump for a maximum
2
of 1 000 m ).
As a general rule, heating control systems involves integrating many functions applied to central
(generation, storage), zone (distribution) and room (emission) parts of heating systems.
OTC control, OSS and complementary integrated functions are specified in FprEN 12098-1:2022 and fulfil
items in EN ISO 52120-1:2022, Table 5, functions 1.1 to 1.10.
NOTE 2 Better control and scheduling of heating systems imply a data communication network linking control
devices for integration of these functions and other technical building management capabilities for energy
performance.
For these parts, objectives of control functions are the lowest flow temperature, the longest reduced or
stop heat generation periods, and pumps operation.
Generation (see EN 15316-4-1) and distribution (see EN 15316–3:2017) parts are controlled acting
water flow temperature whilst emission is controlled via the flow through emitters.
These central controls apply to buildings, zones, and spaces (see Figure 1), taking into account thermal
characteristics and conditions of use (see EN ISO 52000-1:2017).
Emitters of a zone or space controlled by an OTC controller should be of the same model, for conformity
with a single heating curve shape common to all emitters of the controlled zone, i.e. don’t mix different
types of steel radiators, heating floor or fan coil on a distribution controlled by an OTC controller.

5.2.2 Emission control
Individual control of emitters or RTC completes central control by individual emitter’s controllers acting
flow through emitters. The aim of individual control consists in adapting conditions of operation
(individual set point, individual scheduling) to consumers' needs (see EN ISO 52120-1:2022, Figure 3)
and to compensate room heat gains, reducing heating for comfort and energy saving.
However, individual room temperature control performance doesn’t depend only on individual
controllers; it depends also on the flow temperature central (generation, distribution) control, mainly for
these cases:
— Emitters are not equipped with efficient electronic individual RTC (conform to EN 15500-1:2017).
— Users are not encouraged to adapt the set point of their room temperature controller considering
their comfort needs related to energy consumption.
— Heated rooms or spaces do not permit to measure a representative temperature for individual
(closed loop) RTC, e.g.: entrance, corridor, reception hall, exhibition hall, atrium. Emission control is
operated only by the flow temperature control (generation, distribution parts).
However:
— For accuracy of a room controller, the flow temperature of emitters should be adapted to the heating
load, i.e. related to the main influence, the outside temperature. OTC control improves control
efficiently of individual controllers limiting the role of these controllers to compensate heat gains and
avoiding hanging process of these closed control loops;
— To avoid energy wasting by unusual use, inattentive settings or defaults of room controllers, the
central OTC control limit the higher room temperature able to be reached.
EXAMPLE Room temperature able to be reached by OTC control may be limited to 22 °C, room controller
reduces this level, modulating flow through emitter.

Water temperature control by OTC control (function in standalone devices or BAC systems) should be
applied to generation and distribution parts (see Figure 1).
Annex A gives applications of heating control functions for buildings.
6.1.2 OTC generation and storage impact
Flow temperature control improves efficiency generators, minimizes heat losses of tanks and associated
equipment (see EN 15316-4-1:2017).

When controlling flow temperature to the lowest during normal conditions of use, stopping or reducing
heating during reduced heating needs periods (intermittent control during heating season) and stopping
heating (summer/winter switch), the effects of OTC control impact on generation part are:
— Improve efficiency of generators, reduce losses. EN 15316-3:2017 gives algorithms to calculate
efficiency related to the mean temperature.
— Reduce heat losses of thermal storages, pipes, auxiliaries, and other equipment (e.g. valves). The
EN 15316 series gives algorithms to calculate heat losses for these periods.
— Reduce pumps consumption during the same intermittent periods and summer-winter switch. The
EN 15316 series gives algorithms to calculate pump consumptions for these periods.
