1 Scope This European Standard is applicable to railway vehicle driving cabs which are air-conditioned or heated/ventilated. These include:  locomotives;  mainline, suburban or regional vehicles;  urban vehicles such as metros and trams. This European Standard does not consider the special operational requirements of shunt locomotives. This European Standard specifies the comfort parameter measurement methods for driving cabs. The comfort parameters and their tolerances cited in this European Standard are defined in EN 14813-1. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 14813-1:2006, Railway applications — Air conditioning for driving cabs — Part 1: Comfort parameters EN ISO 3381, Railway applications — Acoustics — Measurement of noise inside railbound vehicles (ISO 3381:2005) EN ISO 7726:2001, Ergonomics of the thermal environment — Instruments for measuring physical quantities (ISO 7726:1998) CIE 85, Solar spectral irradiance1) 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 14813-1:2006 apply. 4 Test classification Two levels of testing are detailed in this European Standard. TL1 is a simplified level that gives principle information about the functionality of the system. It does not aim to verify the comfort parameters and performance of the system. It can be done in a workshop or at a yard. TL2 is a full level test to verify the comfort parameters and the performance of the system. This test shall be performed in a climatic chamber or in an appropriate environment. The operator shall detail in his contractual specification the test classification.

EN 14813-2:2006+A1:2010 (E) 7 In the absence of any detail, the full level of testing (TL2) shall apply. If not stated otherwise, the following test requirements apply to both TL1 and TL2. 5 Preliminary verifications It is advised that preliminary tests are carried out to verify the electrical and electronic assemblies, the functional logic of the control system, the air tightness of the air distribution system, the water tightness of the car, the thermal capacity of the air conditioning equipment and so on. These verifications should be conducted before proceeding to the comfort test. 6 Comfort tests 6.1 Air movement tests2) 6.1.1 General remarks The tests shall be carried out under the following conditions:  vehicle stationary and protected from rain;  altitude < 1 000 m above sea level;  exterior air speed between 0 km/h and 5 km/h;  exterior temperature between + 15 °C and + 30 °C. In the case of different altitude and exterior temperature, correction shall be made. 6.1.2 Air flow rates The flow rates of outside air (fresh air) shall be measured in accordance with 10.5. 6.1.3 Pressure differentials (visualisation) If appropriate, this can be shown up by the movement of smoke between the two relative areas. The visualisation shall be made for driving cabs to verify that the air conditioning installation is well designed by preventing the transfer of smoke to a non-smoking area. 6.2 Measurement of air speeds These tests shall be carried out during the climatic tests without the simulation of the thermal and volumetric effects of occupation (the necessary heating elements, humidification and ventilation equipment can affect the measurement inside the comfort envelope). Measuring points shall be according to Annex D. 6.3 Thermal comfort It is recommended for a detail analysis of thermal comfort to use thermal mannequins.

EN 14813-2:2006+A1:2010 (E) 8 7 Climatic tests 7.1 General remarks Annex A defines the test programme for level TL1. Theses tests are only carried out on a stationary vehicle at air speed as defined in Annex A. Annex B defines a minimum schedule of tests for level TL2 which enables the verification of comfort parameters defined in EN 14813-1. The order of the tests is not obligatory but shall be compatible with the physical conditions of the test and the means of measurement. Throughout the tests, all the values at the measuring points defined in Clause 11 shall be recorded continuously, as well as the energy consumption and the power absorbed by the air conditioning installation itself, and the whole of the vehicle. Should other requirement such as for example the doors, the power supply, the lighting etc., need to be tested, these tests shall not interfere in any way with the tests on the air conditioning equipment installed. 7.2 Preheating test 7.2.1 Test level TL1 The test conditions for preheating are defined in Annex A. Before the start of the preheating test, the interior temperatures of the air and the interior surfaces shall be within ± 2 K of the exterior air temperature for at least 15 min. It is anticipated that the temperature stabilisation process may take up to 8 h. 7.2.2 Test level TL2 The test conditions for preheating are defined in Annex B. Before the start of the preheating test, the interior temperatures of the air and the interior surfaces shall be within ± 1 K of the exterior air temperature for at least 15 min. 7.3 Precooling test 7.3.1 Test level TL1 The test conditions for precooling are defined in Annex A. Before the start of the precooling test, the interior temperatures of the air and the interior surfaces shall be within ± 2 K of the exterior air temperature for at least 15 min. At this time, before starting the precooling test, the artificial sunlight equipment or equivalent heating power shall be switched on for 2 h, corresponding to the values given in Annex D of EN 14813-1:2006, with doors and windows closed. 7.3.2 Test level TL2 The test conditions for precooling are defined in Annex B. Before the start of the precooling test, the interior temperatures of the air and the interior surfaces shall be within ± 1 K of the exterior air temperature for at least 15 min. SIST EN 14813-2:2007+A1:2010



EN 14813-2:2006+A1:2010 (E) 9 At this time, before starting the precooling test, the artificial sunlight equipment or equivalent heating power shall be switched on for 2 h, corresponding to the values given in Annex D of EN 14813-1:2006, with all doors and windows closed. 7.4 Regulation test The test conditions are defined in Annex A and Annex B. Starting from stabilised operation (see EN 14813-1:2006, 3.34), after a changing of a parameter (interior or exterior), wait 60 min or three similar consecutive control cycles, then the results obtained shall be in accordance with the requirements defined in EN 14813-1. 8 Tests at extreme exterior operating conditions The operation of the air conditioning equipment, when installed on the vehicle, shall be checked at the extreme operating temperatures defined in EN 14813-1:2006, 6.3. For TL1, these tests may be carried out on the air conditioning equipment only. 9 Complementary tests 9.1 Determination of the coefficient k 9.1.1 Purpose of the test The coefficient k characterises the thermal quality of a driving cab (efficiency of the insulation). The test shall be carried out only at TL2. The test conditions are defined in Annex B. 9.1.2 Definition The global coefficient k is defined by the following equation: ()TemTime−×=APk where  the surface Ae is the developed exterior surface of the assembly including walls, ceiling, floor and ends of the structure for all or part of the driving cab under consideration. This shall include windows, doors and openings;  P is the thermal power released inside the driving cab, necessary to maintain constantly the difference in absolute value between the interior temperature (Tim) measured at 0,8 m above the seat reference point according to Annex D, and the mean exterior temperature (Tem). 9.1.3 Procedure The openings for fresh air and exhaust air are sealed, but not insulated. The air conditioning installation is isolated. The vehicle is without power (except for the batteries). The doors and the windows are closed. SIST EN 14813-2:2007+A1:2010



EN 14813-2:2006+A1:2010 (E) 10 It is necessary to provide a heating installation independent of that of the cab, controllable to a low output and distributed in the driving cab. The uniformity of the temperatures inside the vehicle shall be achieved by fans. The power consumption of the heaters and the fans shall be recorded separately. All the measured data shall be recorded at least once per minute. The value of the temperature difference Tim-Tem shall be 25 K ± 5 K. It is recommended to carry out this test with Tem = + 5 °C ± 2 K. The output of the heating system and of the ventilation is maintained constant; the determination of the coefficient k is possible after stabilisation of the temperatures:  values of Tem and Tim-Tem shall be determined and averaged over a period of 30 min. The variation of these values, over a minimum period of 3 h shall be less than 0,1 K;  range of temperatures relating to different points of measurement (interior and exterior) shall be less than 2 K. The coefficient k is calculated using the measurements taken during the last hour of stabilisation of temperatures. 9.2 Thermography The thermographic test is recommended for evaluation of the thermal quality of the vehicle. 9.3 Noise emission The measurement of noise shall be carried out with the air conditioning installation functioning in the same modes than at the extreme summer temperature of the zone considered in EN 14813-1:2006, Annex D and Annex E, and in accordance with EN ISO 3381. 9.4 Vibration generation The measurement of vibration shall be carried out on a stationary vehicle with the air conditioning installation functioning at a level which corresponds to the requirements of the contractual specification. 10 Methods of measurement – Measuring instruments 10.1 General remark Continuous recording should be carried out, taking as a base a minimum of sampling rates of one measurement per minute for all the values recorded. 10.2 Temperatures 10.2.1 Air temperature The measuring devices shall be class S according to EN ISO 7726:2001, Table 2, and have a maximum drift of ± 0,25 K over the duration of recording. 10.2.2 Surface temperatures In respect of the walls, and in order to measure the real temperature of the relevant surface, precautions shall be taken to protect against external influences such as radiation, convection and transmission of heat. SIST EN 14813-2:2007+A1:2010



EN 14813-2:2006+A1:2010 (E) 11 The class of measuring devices shall be identical to that in 10.2.1. 10.3 Relative humidity The measuring devices shall be class C according to EN ISO 7726:2001, Table 2. 10.4 Air speed Continuous recording should be carried out, taking as a base sampling rate of at least one measurement per second for a minimum period of 1 min. For the purpose of quantifying the variations in speed, the calculation of arithmetic averages, as well as that of the standard deviations for that period shall be carried out. The measuring devices shall be class C of EN ISO 7726:2001, Table 2. 10.5 Airflow rate The airflow shall be determined using a system of measurement which enables the recording of results with a minimum accuracy of 10 %; it is not necessary to carry out a continuous recording of these measurements. At the same time the exterior temperature and the barometric pressure should be recorded. 10.6 Simulated speed of the vehicle The speed of the air around the vehicle is determined by a calibrated system of measurement which enables the recording of results with a minimum accuracy of ± 1 m/s. 10.7 Equivalent solar load The measurement of the equivalent solar load is achieved by a calibrated system of measurement. This measurement is carried out in accordance with the procedure described in Annex C. 10.8 Energy consumption and power rating The measurements shall be carried out using instruments having an accuracy of within 1 %. 11 Characteristics of the test equipment 11.1 General remarks If the tests are performed in a climatic chamber, this chamber shall be approved by a certification organisation. The tolerances of the exterior temperature, exterior relative humidity and exterior air velocity stated in Annex A and Annex B shall be maintained throughout the tests. 11.2 Occupation The simulation of the occupation, total or partial, of the conditioned space is to be achieved in accordance with the curves of EN 14813-1:2006, Annex C. For the simulation of the sensible heat, it is necessary to use heating equipment of low radiance whose surface temperature is less than + 40 °C. The simulation of the latent heat is carried out by the production of water vapour. The sensible heat introduced by the equipment producing the vapour is to be incorporated in the total balance of sensible heat. SIST EN 14813-2:2007+A1:2010
