Chimneys - Thermal and fluid dynamic calculation methods - Part 2: Chimneys serving more than one heating appliance

This part of EN 13384 specifies methods for calculation of the thermal and fluid dynamic characteristics of chimneys serving more than one heating appliance.
This part of EN 13384 covers both the cases, either
a)   where the chimney is connected with more than one connecting flue pipe from individual or several appliances in a multi-inlet arrangement; or
b)   where the chimney is connected with an individual connecting flue pipe connecting more than one appliance in a cascade arrangement.
The case of multiple inlet cascade arrangement is covered by the case a).
This part of EN 13384 deals with chimneys operating under negative pressure conditions (there can be positive pressure condition in the connecting flue pipe) and with chimneys operating under positive pressure conditions and is valid for chimneys serving heating appliances for liquid, gaseous and solid fuels.
This part of EN 13384 does not apply to:
-   chimneys with different thermal resistance or different cross-section in the various chimney segments. This part does not apply to calculate energy gain;
-   chimneys with open fire places, e.g. open fire chimneys or chimney inlets which are normally intended to operate open to the room;
-   chimneys which serve different kinds of heating appliances regarding natural draught, fan assisted, forced draught or combustion engine. Fan assisted appliances with draught diverter between the fan and the chimney are considered as natural draught appliances;
-   chimneys with multiple inlets from more than 5 storeys. (This does not apply to balanced flue chimney.);
-   chimneys serving heating appliances with open air supply through ventilation openings or air ducts, which are not installed in the same air supply pressure region (e.g. same side of building).
For positive pressure chimneys this part only applies if any heating appliance which is out of action can be positively isolated to prevent flue gas back flow.

Abgasanlagen - Wärme- und strömungstechnische Berechnungsverfahren - Teil 2: Abgasanlagen mit mehreren Feuerstätten

Dieser Teil der Normenreihe EN 13384 legt Berechnungsverfahren für die wärme- und strömungstechnischen Eigenschaften von Abgasanlagen mit mehreren Feuerstätten fest.
Dieser Teil der EN 13384 umfasst zwei Fälle:
a)   senkrechte Teile von Abgasanlagen, in die mehrere Verbindungsstücke von einzelnen oder mehreren zusammengefassten Feuerstätten münden; oder
b)   senkrechte Teile von Abgasanlagen, in die ein einzelnes Verbindungsstück mündet, das mehrere Feuerstätten in Kaskadenschaltung verbindet.
Der Fall des Anschlusses mehrerer Kaskadenschaltungen ist durch Fall a) abgedeckt.
Dieser Teil von EN 13384 befasst sich mit Unterdruckabgasanlagen (im Verbindungsstück können Überdruckbedingungen herrschen) sowie mit Überdruckabgasanlagen und gilt für Abgasanlagen mit Feuerstätten für flüssige, gasförmige und feste Brennstoffe.
Dieser Teil der Normenreihe EN 13384 gilt nicht für:
-   Abgasanlagen mit unterschiedlichen Wärmedurchlasswiderständen oder unterschiedlichen Querschnitten in den verschiedenen Abschnitten der Abgasanlage. Energiegewinne werden durch diesen Teil der Normenreihe nicht berücksichtigt;
-   Abgasanlagen für offene Feuerstätten, z. B. offene Kamine oder Abgaseinführungen in die Abgasanlage, die bestimmungsgemäß offen im Raum betrieben werden;
-   Abgasanlagen für verschiedene Feuerstätten mit Unterdruckbetrieb (Naturzug), Gebläseunterstützung oder Verbrennungskraftmaschine. Gebläseunterstützte Abgasanlagen mit einer Nebenluftvorrichtung zwischen Gebläse und Abgasanlage sind als Naturzugkessel anzusehen;
-   Abgasanlagen mit Mehrfachanschlüssen aus mehr als 5 Geschossen (dies gilt nicht für Luft-Abgas-Systeme);
-   Abgasanlagen für Feuerstätten, denen die Zuluft über Öffnungen ins Freie oder Zuluftleitungen zugeführt wird, die sich druckmäßig nicht im gleichen Luftverbund befinden (z. B. auf der gleichen Seite des Gebäudes).
Bei Überdruckabgasanlagen gilt dieser Teil nur dann, wenn alle nicht in Betrieb befindlichen Feuerstätten sicher abgesperrt werden können, um einen Abgasrückfluss zu verhindern.

Conduits de fumée - Méthodes de calcul thermo-aéraulique - Partie 2: Conduits de fumée desservant plus d'un appareil de chauffage

La présente partie de la norme EN 13384 définit des méthodes de calcul des caractéristiques thermoaérauliques de conduits de fumée desservant plusieurs générateurs de chaleur.
Cette partie de la norme EN 13384 traite des deux cas suivants :
a)   cas où le conduit d’évacuation est relié à plusieurs conduits de raccordement partant d'un ou de plusieurs générateurs de chaleur dans un système multi-entrée ou
b)   cas où le conduit d’évacuation est relié à un seul conduit de raccordement reliant plusieurs générateurs de chaleur dans un système en cascade.
Le cas du système multi-entrée en cascade est couvert par le cas a).
La présente partie de l'EN 13384 traite des conduits de fumée fonctionnant dans des conditions de pression négative (il peut y avoir une pression positive dans le conduit de raccordement) et des conduits de fumée fonctionnant dans des conditions de pression positive ; elle s'applique à des conduits desservant des générateurs de chaleur pour combustibles liquides, gazeux et solides.
Cette partie de la norme EN 13384 ne s'applique pas aux conduits de fumée suivants :
   conduits de fumée présentant une résistance thermique différente ou une section différente dans les différents segments. Cette partie ne s’applique pas pour le calcul du gain énergétique ;
   conduits avec foyer ouvert, par exemple conduits de cheminées d'appartements ou entrées de conduits de fumée normalement conçues pour fonctionner ouvertes sur la pièce ;
   conduits desservant différentes sortes de générateurs de chaleur : appareils à tirage naturel, ventilés, à tirage forcé ou à moteur à combustion. Les appareils ventilés possédant un coupe-tirage entre le ventilateur et le conduit d’évacuation sont considérés comme des appareils à tirage naturel ;
   conduits multi-entrées desservant plus de 5 étages. (Ceci ne s'applique pas aux conduits d’évacuation des produits de combustion et d’amenée d’air comburant) ;
   conduits desservant des générateurs de chaleur alimentés à l'air libre par l'intermédiaire d'ouvertures de ventilation ou de conduits aérauliques, qui ne sont pas installés dans la même zone de pression d'alimentation en air (par exemple du même côté du bâtiment) ;
Pour les conduits de fumée sous pression positive, cette partie ne s’applique

Dimniki - Računske metode termodinamike in dinamike fluidov - 2. del: Dimniki za več kot eno ogrevalno napravo

Ta del evropskega standarda EN 13384 določa računske metode termodinamike in dinamike fluidov v dimnikih za več kot eno ogrevalno napravo.
Ta del standarda EN 13384 se uporablja:
a) kadar je dimnik povezan z več kot eno priključno dimno cevjo iz ene ali več naprav v inštalaciji z več dovodi; ali
b) kadar je dimnik povezan z eno priključno dimno cevjo, ki povezuje več naprav v kaskadni inštalaciji.
Primer kaskadne inštalacije z več dovodi je zajet v primeru a).
Ta del standarda EN 13384 obravnava dimnike, ki delujejo pod pogoji z negativnim tlakom (v priključni dimni cevi je lahko pozitiven tlak) in dimnike, ki delujejo pod pogoji s pozitivnim tlakom, ter se uporablja za dimnike za ogrevalne naprave na tekoča, plinasta in trdna goriva.
Ta del standarda EN 13384 se ne uporablja za:
– dimnike z različno toplotno upornostjo ali različnim prerezom v različnih segmentih dimnika. Ta del se ne uporablja za izračun pridobljene energije;
– dimniki z odprtimi kamini, npr. odprti kamini ali dovodi dimnika, ki so običajno odprti v prostor;
– dimniki za različne ogrevalne naprave glede na naravni vlek, s pomočjo ventilatorja, prisilni vlek ali motor z zgorevanjem. Ogrevalne naprave, ki delujejo s pomočjo ventilatorja in imajo med ventilatorjem in dimnikom preusmerjevalnik vleka, se štejejo za naprave z naravnim vlekom;
– dimniki z več dovodi iz več kot 5 nadstropij (to ne velja za tlačno izravnane dimnike);
– dimniki za ogrevalne naprave z odprtim dovodom zraka skozi prezračevalne odprtine ali zračne kanale, ki niso nameščeni v istem tlačnem območju dovoda zraka (npr. na isti strani zgradbe).
Za dimnike s pozitivnim tlakom se ta del standarda uporablja samo, če je mogoče ogrevalno napravo, ki ne deluje, pozitivno izolirati, da se prepreči povratni tok dimnih plinov.

Introduction
The calculation described in this standard is complex and is intended to be solved by using a computer
programme. The general principles of this calculation method of EN 13384-1 also apply to this
standard.
This standard is in support of the execution standards for a chimney installation serving more than one
!combustion"appliance.
The execution standard identifies limitations and safety considerations associated with the design,
installation, commissioning and maintenance of a chimney serving more than one
!combustion"appliance (not dealt within the calculation method).

1 Scope
This part of EN 13384 specifies methods for calculation of the thermal and fluid dynamic characteristics
of chimneys serving more than one !combustion" appliance.
This part of EN 13384 covers both the cases, either
a) where the chimney is connected with more than one connecting flue pipe from individual or several
appliances in a multi-inlet arrangement; or
b) where the chimney is connected with an individual connecting flue pipe connecting more than one
appliance in a cascade arrangement.
The case of multiple inlet cascade arrangement is covered by the case a).
This part of EN 13384 deals with chimneys operating under negative pressure conditions (there can be
positive pressure condition in the connecting flue pipe) and with chimneys operating under positive
pressure conditions and is valid for chimneys serving !combustion" appliances for liquid, gaseous
and solid fuels.
This part of EN 13384 does not apply to:
— chimneys with different thermal resistance or different cross-section in the various chimney
segments. This part does not apply to calculate energy gain;
— chimneys with open fire places, e.g. open fire chimneys or chimney inlets which are normally
intended to operate open to the room;
— chimneys which serve different kinds of !combustion" appliances regarding natural draught,
fan assisted, forced draught or combustion engine. Fan assisted appliances with draught diverter
between the fan and the chimney are considered as natural draught appliances;
— chimneys with multiple inlets from more than 5 storeys. (This does not apply to balanced flue
chimney.);
— chimneys serving !combustion" appliances with open air supply through ventilation openings
or air ducts, which are not installed in the same air supply pressure region (e.g. same side of
building).
For positive pressure chimneys this part only applies if any !combustion" appliance which is out
of action can be positively isolated to prevent flue gas back flow.
