Thermal performance of buildings - Calculation of internal temperatures of a room in summer without mechanical cooling - General criteria and validation procedures (ISO 13791:2012)

This European Standard specifies the assumptions, boundary conditions, equations and validation tests for a calculation procedure, under transient hourly conditions, of the internal temperatures (air and operative) during the warm period, of a single room without any cooling/heating equipment in operation. No specific numerical techniques are imposed by this standard. Validation tests are included in clause 7. An example of a solution technique is given in annex A.
This standard does not contain sufficient information for defining a procedure able to determine the internal conditions of special zones such as attached sun spaces, atria, indirect passive solar components (Trombe walls, solar panels) and zones in which the solar radiation may pass through the room. For such situations different assumptions and more detailed solution models are needed (see Bibliography).

Wärmetechnisches Verhalten von Gebäuden - Sommerliche Raumtemperaturen bei Gebäuden ohne Anlagentechnik - Allgemeine Kriterien und Validierungsverfahren (ISO 13791:2012)

Dieses Dokument legt die Annahmen, Randbedingungen, Gleichungen und Validierungsprüfungen für ein Verfahren zur Berech¬nung der Innentemperaturen (Luft und operativ) eines Einzelraumes ohne Kühl /Heiz-anlage während der warmen Jahreszeit unter stundenbezogenen Übergangsbedingungen fest. In diesem Dokument werden keine spezifischen numerischen Verfahrensweisen vorgeschrieben. Im Abschnitt 7 sind Validierungsverfahren angegeben. Ein Lösungsbeispiel ist im Anhang A gegeben.
Die in diesem Dokument enthaltenen Informationen sind nicht ausreichend, um ein Verfahren festzulegen, mit dem die inneren Bedingungen von speziellen Zonen, wie z. B. angebaute Sonnenräume, Vorhallen, indirekte passive Solarkompo¬nenten (Trombe-Wände, Solarzellenplatten), und von Zonen, in denen die Sonnenstrahlung durch den Raum hindurchgehen kann, bestimmt werden können. Für derartige Situationen sind andere Annahmen und ausführlichere Lösungsmodelle erforderlich (siehe Literaturhinweise).

Performance thermique des bâtiments - Calcul des températures intérieures en été d'un local sans dispositif de refroidissement - Critères généraux et procédures de validation (ISO13791:2012)

L'ISO 13791:2012 spécifie les hypothèses, conditions aux limites, équations et essais de validation à adopter pour une méthode de calcul, en régime transitoire horaire, des températures intérieures (de l'air et opérative) pendant les périodes chaudes, d'un seul local dépourvu d'installation de refroidissement/chauffage en service.

Toplotne značilnosti stavb - Izračun notranje temperature prostorov poleti brez mehanskega hlajenja - Splošna merila in validacija postopka (ISO 13791:2012)

Ta evropski standard določa metode in postopke za oceno trdnosti betona v zgradbah in montažnih betonskih sestavnih delih na kraju samem; določa načela in navodila za definicijo razmerja med rezultati preskusa na podlagi posrednih preskusnih metod in trdnosti jedra na kraju samem; določa navodila za oceno trdnosti betona v zgradbah ali montažnih betonskih sestavnih delih na kraju samem s posrednimi ali kombiniranimi metodami. V ta evropski standard niso vključeni naslednji primeri: uporaba posrednih metod brez korelacije s trdnostjo jedra; ocena na podlagi jeder, manjših od 50 mm v premeru; ocena na podlagi manj kot 3 jeder; uporaba mikrojeder.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 13791 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 163, Thermal performance and energy use in the
built environment, Subcommittee SC 2, Calculation methods.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 13791:2004), which has been technically
revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are given in the following table:

Introduction
This International Standard is intended for use by specialists to develop and/or validate methods for the hourly
calculation of the internal temperatures of a single room.
Examples of application of such methods include:
a) assessing the risk of internal overheating;
b) optimizing aspects of building design (building thermal mass, solar protection, ventilation rate, etc.) to
provide thermal comfort conditions;
c) assessing whether a building requires mechanical cooling.
Criteria for building performance are not included. They can be considered at national level. This International
Standard can also be used as a reference to develop more simplified methods for the above and similar
applications.
