Rooftop units - Testing and rating at standard rating conditions and part load conditions for calculation of seasonal performance

document specifies the terms and definitions, the test conditions and the test methods of air-sourced
and water-cooled roof-top units, driven by electric compressor(s), which may be equipped with a
supplementary heater using electrical resistance or combustion of fossil fuel.
This document covers roof-top units with 2, 3 or 4 dampers, including several features as the free-cooling,
mixing air flows (on both sides) and heat recovery.
This document deals with roof-top units providing space heating and/or cooling for comfort application.
Process applications are not covered by this document.
This document provides the part load conditions and the calculation methods taking into account roof-top
units features for the determination of seasonal energy efficiency SEER and SEERon, seasonal space
cooling energy efficiency ηs,c, seasonal coefficient of performance SCOP, SCOPon and SCOPnet,
seasonal space heating energy efficiency ηs,h and the overall annual efficiency.
Such calculation methods may be based on calculated or measured values.
In case of measured values, this document covers the test methods for determination of capacities, EER
and COP values during active mode at part load conditions. It also covers test methods for the
determination of power input during thermostat-off mode, standby mode, off-mode and crankcase heater
mode.
A roof-top unit that is not using at least the thermodynamic cycle for space heating is considered as a
cooling only unit.
Roof-top units equipped with additional air heating and/or cooling heat exchangers will be rated without
operation of these heat exchangers.

Dachgeräte - Prüfung und Bewertung unter Standardbedingungen und Teillastbedingungen zur Berechnung der jahreszeitlichen Leistun

Dieses Dokument legt die Begriffe, die Prüfbedingungen und die Prüfverfahren für die Bewertung und die Leistung von Dachgeräten fest. Es legt zudem die Leistungsbestimmung und die Berechnungsverfahren unter Berücksichtigung der Merkmale von Dachgeräten, wie freie Kühlung und Mischung von Luftströmen, zur Ermittlung der saisonalen Arbeitszahl bei Kühl- und Heizbetrieb fest.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nur Raumheizung und/oder  kühlung für Komfortzwecke (Prozessanwendungen liegen nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments). Es ist anwendbar für Luft/Luft- und Wasser/Sole-Luft-Dachgeräte mit elektrisch angetriebenem/n Verdichter(n), die mit einem zusätzlichen Heizgerät ausgestattet sein können und einen elektrischen Widerstand oder die Verbrennung fossiler Brennstoffe verwenden. Dieses Dokument behandelt keine Dachgeräte mit getrennt angeordnetem Verflüssiger.
Dieses Dokument behandelt die Merkmale freie Kühlung, Mischung von Luftströmen (auf beiden Seiten) und interne Wärmerückgewinnung, wie in Anhang A dargestellt. Anhang B enthält zusätzliche Definitionen und Verfahren für die Bestimmung der saisonalen Leistungen für die Kühlung/Heizung von Räumen mindestens mit einem Gemisch aus Außenluft und Umluft.

Unités de toiture - Essais et détermination des performances nominales et à charge partielle pour le calcul de performances saisonnières

Le présent document spécifie les termes et définitions, les conditions d'essai et les méthodes d'essai pour évaluer les performances des unités de toiture. Il spécifie également la détermination des puissances thermiques et les méthodes de calcul tenant compte des caractéristiques des unités de toiture, telles que le refroidissement naturel et les mélanges de flux d'air, pour la détermination des efficacités énergétiques saisonnières en matière de refroidissement et de chauffage.
Le présent document ne couvre que le chauffage et/ou le refroidissement des locaux pour les applications de confort (les applications industrielles ne sont pas couvertes par le présent document). Il s'applique aux unités de toiture air/air et eau (glycolée)/air avec compresseur(s) entraîné(s) par moteur électrique, qui peuvent être équipées d'un dispositif de chauffage d'appoint utilisant la résistance électrique ou la combustion de combustibles fossiles. Le présent document ne couvre pas les unités de toiture avec condenseurs séparés.
Le présent document couvre les caractéristiques du refroidissement naturel, du mélange de flux d'air (des deux côtés) et de la récupération de chaleur interne, comme illustré à l'Annexe A. L'Annexe B fournit des définitions et des méthodes supplémentaires pour déterminer les performances saisonnières pour le refroidissement/chauffage des locaux avec un mélange minimum d'air extérieur et d'air recyclé.
