EN 14511-3:2007 (E) 6 4 Rating capacity test 4.1 Basic principles 4.1.1 Heating capacity The heating capacity of air conditioners and of air-to-air or water-to-air heat pumps shall be determined by measurements in a calorimeter room or by the air enthalpy method which are described in Annex A and Annex B respectively. The heating capacity of air-to-water, water-to-water heat pumps and liquid chilling packages shall be determined in accordance with the direct method at the water or brine heat exchanger, by determination of the volume flow of the heat transfer medium, and the inlet and outlet temperatures, taking into consideration the specific heat capacity and density of the heat transfer medium. For steady state operation, the heating capacity shall be determined using the following formula: tcqPpH∆××=ρ (1) where: PH
is the heat capacity, in Watts; q is the volume flow rate, in cubic metres per second; ρ is the density, in kilograms per cubic metre; cp is the specific heat at constant pressure, in joules per kilogram and kelvin; ∆t is the difference between inlet and outlet temperatures, in kelvin. For the heating capacity calculation in transient operation, refer to 4.5.3.2. The heating capacity shall be corrected for the heat from the fan or pump: − if the fan or pump at the indoor heat exchanger is an integral part of the unit, the same power (calculated in 4.1.5.1 or 4.1.6.1) which is excluded from the total power input shall be also subtracted from the heating capacity; − If the fan or pump at the indoor heat exchanger is not an integral part of the unit, the same power (calculated in 4.1.5.2 or 4.1.6.2) which is included in the effective power input shall be also added to the heating capacity. 4.1.2 Cooling capacity The cooling capacity of air conditioners and of air-to-air or water-to-air heat pumps shall be determined by measurements in a calorimeter room or by the air enthalpy method which are described in Annex A and Annex B respectively. The cooling capacity of air-to-water, water-to-water heat pumps and liquid chilling packages shall be determined in accordance with the direct method at the water or brine heat exchanger, by determination of the volume flow of the heat transfer medium, and the inlet and outlet temperatures, taking into consideration the specific heat capacity and density of the heat transfer medium.

The cooling capacity shall be corrected for the heat from the fan or pump: a) If the fan or pump at the evaporator is an integral part of the unit, the same power (calculated in 4.1.5.1 or 4.1.6.1) which is excluded from the total power input is also added to the cooling capacity. b) If the fan or pump at the evaporator is not an integral part of the unit, the same power (calculated in 4.1.5.2 or 4.1.6.2) which is included in the effective power input is also subtracted from the cooling capacity. 4.1.3 Heat recovery capacity The heat recovery capacity of air-to-water and water-to-water heat pumps and liquid chilling packages shall be determined in accordance with the direct method at the water or brine heat exchanger, by determination of the volume flow of the heat transfer medium, and the inlet and outlet temperatures, taking into consideration the specific heat capacity and density of the heat transfer medium. The heat recovery capacity shall be determined using the following formula: tcqPpHR∆×××=ρ (3) where:
PHR is the heat recovery capacity, in Watts; q is the volume flow rate, in cubic metres per second; ρ is the density, in kilograms per cubic metre; cp is the specific heat at constant pressure, in joules per kilogram and kelvin; ∆t is the difference between inlet and outlet temperatures in kelvin. 4.1.4 Power input of fans for units without duct connection In the case of units which are not designed for duct connection, i.e. which do not permit any external pressure differences, and which are equipped with an integral fan, the power absorbed by the fan shall be included in the effective power absorbed by the unit.

EN 14511-3:2007 (E) 8 4.1.5 Power input of fans for units with duct connection 4.1.5.1 If a fan is an integral part of the unit, only a fraction of the input of the fan motor shall be included in the effective power absorbed by the unit. The fraction that is to be excluded from the total power absorbed by the unit shall be calculated using the following formula: ηepq∆× [W] (4) where:  η is 0,3 by convention;  ∆pe is the measured available external static pressure difference, in Pascals;  q is the nominal air flow rate, in cubic meters per second. 4.1.5.2 If no fan is provided with the unit, the proportional power input which is to be included in the effective power absorbed by the unit, shall be calculated using the following formula: ηipq∆× [W] (5) where:  η is 0,3 by convention;  ∆pi is the measured internal static pressure difference, in Pascals;  q is the nominal air flow rate, in cubic meters per second. 4.1.6 Power input of liquid pumps 4.1.6.1 If a liquid pump is an integral part of the unit, only a fraction of the input to the pump motor shall be included in the effective power absorbed by the unit. The fraction which is to be excluded from the total power absorbed by the unit shall be calculated using the following formula: ηepq∆× [W] (6) where:  η is 0,3 by convention;  ∆pe is the measured available external static pressure difference, in Pascals;  q is the nominal water flow rate, in cubic meters per second. 4.1.6.2 If no liquid pump is provided with the unit, the proportional power input which is to be included in the effective power absorbed by the unit, shall be calculated using the following formula: ηipq∆× [W] (7) SIST EN 14511-3:2008



EN 14511-3:2007 (E) 9 where:  η is 0,3 by convention;  ∆pi is the measured internal static pressure difference, in Pascals;  q is the nominal water flow rate, in cubic meters per second. 4.1.6.3 In the case of appliances designed especially to operate on a distributing network of pressurised water without water-pump, no correction is to be applied to the power input. 4.1.7 Units for use with remote condenser The power from the auxiliary liquid pump of the remote condenser shall not be taken into account in the effective power input. 4.2 Test apparatus 4.2.1 Arrangement of the test apparatus 4.2.1.1 General requirements The test apparatus shall be designed in such a way that all requirements on adjustment of set values, stability criteria and uncertainties of measurement according to this European Standard can be fulfilled. 4.2.1.2 Test room for the air side The size of the test room shall be selected such that any resistance to air flow at the air inlet and air outlet orifices of the test object is avoided. The air flow through the room shall not be capable of initiating any short circuit between these two orifices, and therefore the velocity of the air flows through the room at these two locations shall not exceed 1,5 m/s when the test object is switched off. The air velocity in the room shall also not be greater than the mean velocity through the unit inlet. Unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer, the air inlet or air outlet orifices shall be not less than 1 m distant from the surfaces of the test room. Any direct heat radiation by heating units in the test room onto the unit or onto the temperature measuring points shall be avoided. 4.2.1.3 Appliances with duct connection Ducted air systems shall be sufficiently air tight to ensure that the measured results are not significantly influenced by exchange of air with the surroundings. 4.2.1.4 Appliances with integral pumps For appliances with integral and adjustable water or brine pumps, the external static pressure will be set at the same time as the temperature difference. 4.2.1.5 Liquid chilling package for use with remote condenser Units for use with remote condenser are tested by using a water-cooled condenser, the characteristics of which shall enable the intended operating conditions to be achieved. SIST EN 14511-3:2008



EN 14511-3:2007 (E) 10 4.2.2 Installation and connection of the test object 4.2.2.1 General The test object shall be installed and connected for the test as recommended by the manufacturer in his installation and operation manual. The accessories provided by option (for example heating element) are not included in the test. For single duct units, in case the manufacturer's instructions do not specify how to install the discharge duct, the following recommendations shall apply. For single ducts, the discharge duct shall be as short and straight as possible compatibly with minimum distance between the unit and the wall for correct air inlet but not less than 50 cm.
No accessory shall be connected to the discharge end of the duct.
For double duct units, the same requirements apply to both suction and discharge ducts, unless the appliance is designed to be installed directly on the wall. For multisplit systems, the test shall be performed with the system operating at a capacity ratio of 1, or as close as possible. When performing measures in heating mode, set the highest room temperature on the unit/system control device; when performing measures in cooling mode, set the lowest room temperature on the unit/system control device. For unit with open-type compressor the electric motor shall be supplied or specified by the manufacturer. The compressor shall be operated at the rotational speed specified by the manufacturer. For inverter type control units, if the manufacturer gives instructions for the setting of the frequency for each rating condition, this setting shall be done. NOTE To set up a multisplit system which incorporates an inverter-controlled compressor, skilled personnel with a knowledge of control software will be required. The manufacturer or his nominated agent should be in attendance when the system is being installed and prepared for tests. 4.2.2.2 Installation of unit consisting of several parts In the case of a unit consisting of several parts, the following installation conditions shall be complied with for the test. a) The refrigerant lines shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions with a minimum length of 5 m and a greater length to a maximum of 7,5 m if the constraints of the test installation make
5 m not possible. b) The lines shall be installed so that the difference in elevation does not exceed 2,5 m. c) The thermal insulation of the lines shall be applied in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. d) Unless constrained by the design, at least half of the connecting lines shall be exposed to the outside conditions, with the rest of the lines exposed to the inside conditions. 4.2.2.3 Indoor units of multisplit systems When testing a multisplit system, indoor units shall be either all non ducted or all ducted. If they are ducted, all indoor units shall be of the same model, i.e. having the same airflow rate and the same external static pressure. In case of equipment with non ducted indoor units tested using the air enthalpy method, the above requirement on ducted indoor units shall apply. SIST EN 14511-3:2008



EN 14511-3:2007 (E) 11 4.2.2.4 Measurements Temperature and pressure measuring points shall be arranged in order to obtain mean significant values. For free air intake temperature measurements, it is required: − either to have at least one sensor per square meter and not less than four measuring points equally distributed on the air surface; − or to use a sampling device. It shall be completed by four sensors for checking uniformity if the surface area is greater than 1 m². For control cabinet air conditioners, the inlet temperature at the evaporator is measured instead of the temperature inside the control cabinet. 4.3 Uncertainties of measurement The uncertainties of measurement shall not exceed the values specified in Table 1.

The heating or cooling capacities measured on the liquid side shall be determined within a maximum uncertainty of 5 % independent of the individual uncertainties of measurement including the uncertainties on the properties of fluids. SIST EN 14511-3:2008



EN 14511-3:2007 (E) 12 The steady state heating or cooling capacities determined using the calorimeter method shall be determined with a maximum uncertainty of 5 %, independent of the individual uncertainties of measurement including the uncertainties on the properties of fluids. Heating capacity determined during transient operation (defrost cycles) using the calorimeter method shall be determined with a maximum uncertainty of 10 %, independent of the individual uncertainties of measurement including the uncertainties on the properties of fluids. The heating and cooling capacities measured on the air side using the air enthalpy method shall be determined with a maximum uncertainty of 10 %, independent of the individual uncertainties of measurement including the uncertainties on the properties of fluids. 4.4 Test procedure 4.4.1 General 4.4.1.1 All units The test conditions are given in EN 14511-2. If liquid heat transfer media other than water are used, the specific heat capacity and density of such heat transfer media shall be determined and taken into consideration in the evaluation. Table 4 states permissible deviations of the measured values from the test conditions. 4.4.1.2 Non ducted units For non ducted units, the adjustable settings such as louvers and fan speed shall be set for maximum air flow. 4.4.1.3 Ducted units The volume flow and the pressure difference shall be related to standard air and with dry evaporator. The air flow rate given by the manufacturer shall be converted into standard air conditions. The air flow rate setting shall be made when the fan only is operating, at standard air conditions. The rated airflow rate given by the manufacturer shall be set and the resulting external static pressure (ESP) measured. This ESP shall be greater than the minimum value given in Table 2 for comfort air conditioners and Table 3 for close control air conditioners but not greater than 80 % of the maximum external static pressure specified by the manufacturer. If the fan of the unit has an adjustable speed, it shall be adjusted to the lowest speed that provide the minimum ESP or greater. If the maximum ESP of the unit is lower than the minimum ESP given in Table 2 or Table 3, then the air flow rate is lowered to achieve an ESP equal to 80 % of the maximum ESP of the manufacturer. In case this ESP is lower than 25 Pa, the unit can be considered as a free delivery unit and be tested as a non ducted unit with an ESP of 0 Pa. SIST EN 14511-3:2008
