Introduction
The set of EPB standards, technical reports and supporting tools
In order to facilitate the necessary overall consistency and coherence, in terminology, approach,
input/output relations and formats, for the whole set of EPB-standards, the following documents and
tools are available:
a) a document with basic principles to be followed in drafting EPB-standards:
CEN/TS 16628:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Basic Principles for the set of EPB
standards [1];
b) a document with detailed technical rules to be followed in drafting EPB-standards;
CEN/TS 16629:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Detailed Technical Rules for the set of
EPB-standards [2];
c) the detailed technical rules are the basis for the following tools:
1) a common template for each EPB-standard, including specific drafting instructions for the
relevant clauses;
2) a common template for each technical report that accompanies an EPB standard or a cluster of
EPB standards, including specific drafting instructions for the relevant clauses;
3) a common template for the spreadsheet that accompanies each EPB standard, to demonstrate
the correctness of the EPB calculation procedures.
Each EPB-standards follows the basic principles and the detailed technical rules and relates to the
overarching EPB-standard, EN ISO 52000-1.
One of the main purposes of the revision of the EPB-standards is to enable that laws and regulations
directly refer to the EPB-standards and make compliance with them compulsory. This requires that the
set of EPB-standards consists of a systematic, clear, comprehensive and unambiguous set of energy
performance procedures. The number of options provided is kept as low as possible, taking into
account national and regional differences in climate, culture and building tradition, policy and legal
frameworks (subsidiarity principle). For each option, an informative default option is provided
(Annex B).
Rationale behind the EPB technical reports
There is a risk that the purpose and limitations of the EPB standards will be misunderstood, unless the
background and context to their contents – and the thinking behind them – is explained in some detail
to readers of the standards. Consequently, various types of informative contents are recorded and made
available for users to properly understand, apply and nationally or regionally implement the EPB
standards.
If this explanation would have been attempted in the standards themselves, the result is likely to be
confusing and cumbersome, especially if the standards are implemented or referenced in national or
regional building codes.
Therefore each EPB standard is accompanied by an informative technical report, like this one, where all
informative content is collected, to ensure a clear separation between normative and informative
contents (see CEN/TS 16629 [2]):
— to avoid flooding and confusing the actual normative part with informative content,
— to reduce the page count of the actual standard, and
— to facilitate understanding of the set of EPB standards.

foundation for the preparation of the set of EPB standards.

5 Information on the method
The method calculates the thermal balance of the storage unit. This storage unit in divided, for the
calculation purpose, in fixed volumes that are in stable conditions (temperature) for any time step
considered.
This method covers the thermal calculation of the storage unit where the temperature is stratified, due
to delay between the energy demand and the re-heat by the generation unit.
The generation unit can be located outside of the storage unit (combustion boilers, heat pump) or inside
for specific cases (electric resistance for the main or for the back-up).
The temperature of any volume is the result of the energy balance for the volume considered (energy
input, mass transfer, thermal losses though the envelope).
In case of multi storage unit the control system defines the priority between the storage unit (parallel
mounting) or the order (serial mounting).

CEN/TR 15316-6-10:2017 (E)
NOTE The thermal conduction between the different calculation volumes is neglected in the calculation.
6 Method description (storage model: multi volume)
6.1 Rationale
The input data are the volume of the storage unit, standby losses at reference values (ambient
temperature, set temperature) of the storage unit and information related to the type of system used to
heat the storage unit (power, type –direct; – heat exchanger, location or altitude).
The information related to the scenario of use at the output is based on.
A flowchart is given in Annex A.
6.2 Time steps
Time step is typically hourly.
However, the time step could be adapted and aligned with the scenario of energy end use (tapping
pattern for domestic hot water use).
6.3 Assumptions
It is assumed that the power of losses vary linearly with the difference between ambient temperature
and temperature of the storage unit.
Energy is withdrawn at the beginning of the step time.
The thermal losses are considered as proportion of each of the volume used to model the storage unit.
This covers cylindrical (horizontal and vertical) storage.
NOTE The value could be changed as a proportion of the external surface considered for each volume if
necessary.
Dynamic effects are neglected because the temperature of the storage unit is considered as
homogenous during each time step.
6.4 Number of volume to model the storage
Ideal situation is when the number of volumes used to model the storage unit is equal to the number of
time step for a given period when the storage is supposed to recover its full capacity (typically 24 h
period, so 24 volumes).
If the heating element (heat exchanger, electric resistance) corresponds to the position of more than 1
volume, the heating power for each of the modelled volume is made as a proportion of the sum of the
volumes concerned with the location of the heating element.
The number of volume could be reduced to 1 when the temperature of the whole volume is
homogenous during each step time (no stratification).
6.5 Data input
6.5.1 Volume
The volume is the declared value by the manufacturer (unit: l – litre).
6.5.2 Thermal losses
When known, the thermal losses are those provided by the manufacturer.
The thermal losses (usually expressed in kWh/24h) are transformed into thermal power losses (unit:
W/K).

CEN/TR 15316-6-10:2017 (E)
Default values for coefficients C1, C2 …C5 are based on data from the different products standards
representing typical values for storage unit in Europe (Table 1).
f is a multiplying factor of the thermal losses and depends on the number of pipes connection, the
sto;dis;ls
type of mounting of the pipe connection including or not heat traps or other features to limit heat
exchange, and type of thermal insulation of piping and valves. The range of this factor vary for 1 to 5
— f = 1:no thermal bridges and no fluid exchange from storage to distribution systems accounted
sto;dis;ls
for pipes connections. This correspond to the ideal cases where thermal losses are accounted to the
distribution part
— f = 3: indicated in the norm be 3, not 1 and corresponds to the usual case encountered in the
sto;dis;ls
practice is “thermal insulation only installed on straight parts of the distribution lines, T-pieces of
the lines not insulated, valves not insulated, etc. and no heat trap”. In such a case, the heat losses are
multiplied by 3, compared with the theoretical calculation using the lambda values of the insulation
and its geometry.
Table 1 — Products standards for storage
Electrical storage water heaters EN 60379
Solar storage EN 12977–3
Other hot water storage tanks EN 15332
6.5.3 Power unit
The power unit is the value declared by the manufacturer (unit: kW or W/K for heat exchanger).
The power unit(s) is allocated to the volume considered depending on its location.
NOTE The temperature control of the heating element can be addressed on any of the volume(s° used for the
calculation in accordance with the technology used (direct resistance, heat exchanger from boiler, heat exchanger
from solar collectors,…). Set poin.t can be time dependent.
6.5.4 Auxiliary
The auxiliary information (power, mass flow) are provided by the manufacturer (integrated auxiliaries)
or from the design of the storage.
6.6 Calculation information
Main source of error is considering a lack of energy at the output of the storage unit due to:
— default in dimensioning the storage unit;
— default in the control for heating;
— calculation time step not adapted (solution could be to reduce the step time in order to divide the
energy demand at the output of the storage unit.
7 Worked out examples.
7.1 Storage model with 4 volumes
7.1.1 Description
The example refers to a typical single dwelling, storage unit power with an electric resistance at the
bottom of the storage unit for domestic hot water use only.

CEN/TR 15316-6-10:2017 (E)
The water used at the top of the storage unit (volume 4) is replaced by cold water at the bottom of the
storage unit (volume 1).
No back-up system is implemented.
The energy output is calculated; in case of lake of energy the missing quantity is reported and can be
supply by other generation or storage units.
The temperature is controlled in the same volume than the heating element.
This example highlights the stratification of the temperature storage unit.
7.1.2 Calculation details
Calculation details are given in Annex B.
7.1.3 Remarks and comments
The model has been validated as the results have been compared against tests using scenarios from
mandate M343 (domestic hot water tapping patterns).
7.2 Storage model with single volume
7.2.1 Description
The example refers to a typical single dwelling, storage unit powered with heat exchanger for domestic
hot water and heating services.
A single volume model is adapted when the storage unit is not stratified (mixing pump, frequent energy
input,…).
An integrated back-up system is here available (electric resistance).
This example highlights the control system depending on
— priority given for the different energy end use;
— minimum temperature(s) for energy delivery;
— set temperature(s) for control of the main energy input and for the back-up system.

Introduction
The set of EPB standards, technical reports and supporting tools
In order to facilitate the necessary overall consistency and coherence, in terminology, approach,
input/output relations and formats, for the whole set of EPB-standards, the following documents and
tools are available:
a) a document with basic principles to be followed in drafting EPB-standards:
CEN/TS 16628:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Basic Principles for the set of EPB
standards [1];
b) a document with detailed technical rules to be followed in drafting EPB-standards;
CEN/TS 16629:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Detailed Technical Rules for the set of
EPB-standards [2];
c) the detailed technical rules are the basis for the following tools:
1) a common template for each EPB-standard, including specific drafting instructions for the
relevant clauses;
2) a common template for each technical report that accompanies an EPB standard or a cluster of
EPB standards, including specific drafting instructions for the relevant clauses;
3) a common template for the spreadsheet that accompanies each EPB standard, to demonstrate
the correctness of the EPB calculation procedures.
Each EPB-standards follows the basic principles and the detailed technical rules and relates to the
overarching EPB-standard, prEN ISO 52000-1 [3].
One of the main purposes of the revision of the EPB-standards is to enable that laws and regulations
directly refer to the EPB-standards and make compliance with them compulsory. This requires that the
set of EPB-standards consists of a systematic, clear, comprehensive and unambiguous set of energy
performance procedures. The number of options provided is kept as low as possible, taking into
account national and regional differences in climate, culture and building tradition, policy and legal
frameworks (subsidiarity principle). For each option, an informative default option is provided
(Annex B).
Rationale behind the EPB technical reports
There is a risk that the purpose and limitations of the EPB standards will be misunderstood, unless the
background and context to their contents – and the thinking behind them – is explained in some detail
to readers of the standards. Consequently, various types of informative contents are recorded and made
available for users to properly understand, apply and nationally or regionally implement the EPB
standards.
If this explanation would have been attempted in the standards themselves, the result is likely to be
confusing and cumbersome, especially if the standards are implemented or referenced in national or
regional building codes.
Therefore each EPB standard is accompanied by an informative technical report, like this one, where all
informative content is collected, to ensure a clear separation between normative and informative
contents (see CEN/TS 16629 [2]):
— to avoid flooding and confusing the actual normative part with informative content,
— to reduce the page count of the actual standard, and
— to facilitate understanding of the set of EPB standards.
This was also one of the main recommendations from the European CENSE project [5] that laid the
foundation for the preparation of the set of EPB standards.

5 Information on the method
The method calculates the thermal balance of the storage unit. This storage unit in divided, for the
calculation purpose, in fixed volumes that are in stable conditions (temperature) for any time step
considered.
This method covers the thermal calculation of the storage unit where the temperature is stratified, due
to delay between the energy demand and the re-heat by the generation unit.
The generation unit can be located outside of the storage unit (combustion boilers, heat pump) or inside
for specific cases (electric resistance for the main or for the back-up).
The temperature of any volume is the result of the energy balance for the volume considered (energy
input, mass transfer, thermal losses though the envelope).
In case of multi storage unit the control system defines the priority between the storage unit (parallel
mounting) or the order (serial mounting).
NOTE The thermal conduction between the different calculation volumes is neglected in the calculation.

6 Method description (storage model: multi volume)
6.1 Rationale
The input data are the volume of the storage unit, standby losses at reference values (ambient
temperature, set temperature) of the storage unit and information related to the type of system used to
heat the storage unit (power, type –direct; – heat exchanger, location or altitude).
The information related to the scenario of use at the output is based on.
A flowchart is given in Annex A.
6.2 Time steps
Time step is typically hourly.
However, the time step could be adapted and aligned with the scenario of energy end use (tapping
pattern for domestic hot water use).
6.3 Assumptions
It is assumed that the power of losses vary linearly with the difference between ambient temperature
and temperature of the storage unit.
Energy is withdrawn at the beginning of the step time.
The thermal losses are considered as proportion of each of the volume used to model the storage unit.
This covers cylindrical (horizontal and vertical) storage.
NOTE The value could be changed as a proportion of the external surface considered for each volume if
necessary.
Dynamic effects are neglected because the temperature of the storage unit is considered as
homogenous during each time step.
6.4 Number of volume to model the storage
Ideal situation is when the number of volumes used to model the storage unit is equal to the number of
time step for a given period when the storage is supposed to recover its full capacity (typically 24 h
period, so 24 volumes).
If the heating element (heat exchanger, electric resistance) corresponds to the position of more than 1
volume, the heating power for each of the modelled volume is made as a proportion of the sum of the
volumes concerned with the location of the heating element.
The number of volume could be reduced to 1 when the temperature of the whole volume is
homogenous during each step time (no stratification).
6.5 Data input
6.5.1 Volume
The volume is the declared value by the manufacturer (unit: l – litre).
6.5.2 Thermal losses
When known, the thermal losses are those provided by the manufacturer.
The thermal losses (usually expressed in kWh/24h) are transformed into thermal power losses (unit:
W/K).

FprCEN/TR 15316-6-10:2016 (E)
Default values for coefficients C1, C2 …C5 are based on data from the different products standards
representing typical values for storage unit in Europe (Table 1).
f is a multiplying factor of the thermal losses and depends on the number of pipes connection, the
sto;dis;ls
type of mounting of the pipe connection including or not heat traps or other features to limit heat
exchange, and type of thermal insulation of piping and valves. The range of this factor vary for 1 to 5
— f = 1:no thermal bridges and no fluid exchange from storage to distribution systems accounted
sto;dis;ls
for pipes connections. This correspond to the ideal cases where thermal losses are accounted to the
distribution part
— f = 3: indicated in the norm be 3, not 1 and corresponds to the usual case encountered in the
sto;dis;ls
practice is “thermal insulation only installed on straight parts of the distribution lines, T-pieces of
the lines not insulated, valves not insulated, etc. and no heat trap”. In such a case, the heat losses are
multiplied by 3, compared with the theoretical calculation using the lambda values of the insulation
and its geometry.

Electrical storage water heaters EN 60379
Solar storage EN 12977–3
Other hot water storage tanks EN 15332
6.5.3 Power unit
The power unit is the value declared by the manufacturer (unit: kW or W/K for heat exchanger).
The power unit(s) is allocated to the volume considered depending on its location.
NOTE The temperature control of the heating element can be addressed on any of the volume(s° used for the
calculation in accordance with the technology used (direct resistance, heat exchanger from boiler, heat exchanger
from solar collectors,…). Set poin.t can be time dependent.
6.5.4 Auxiliary
The auxiliary information (power, mass flow) are provided by the manufacturer (integrated auxiliaries)
or from the design of the storage.
6.6 Calculation information
Main source of error is considering a lack of energy at the output of the storage unit due to:
— default in dimensioning the storage unit;
— default in the control for heating;
— calculation time step not adapted (solution could be to reduce the step time in order to divide the
energy demand at the output of the storage unit.
7 Worked out examples.

FprCEN/TR 15316-6-10:2016 (E)
The water used at the top of the storage unit (volume 4) is replaced by cold water at the bottom of the
storage unit (volume 1).
No back-up system is implemented.
The energy output is calculated; in case of lake of energy the missing quantity is reported and can be
supply by other generation or storage units.
The temperature is controlled in the same volume than the heating element.
This example highlights the stratification of the temperature storage unit.
7.1.2 Calculation details
Calculation details are given in Annex B.
7.1.3 Remarks and comments
The model has been validated as the results have been compared against tests using scenarios from
mandate M343 (domestic hot water tapping patterns).
7.2 Storage model with single volume
7.2.1 Description
The example refers to a typical single dwelling, storage unit powered with heat exchanger for domestic
hot water and heating services.
A single volume model is adapted when the storage unit is not stratified (mixing pump, frequent energy
input,…).
An integrated back-up system is here available (electric resistance).
This example highlights the control system depending on
— priority given for the different energy end use;
— minimum temperature(s) for energy delivery;
— set temperature(s) for control of the main energy input and for the back-up system.
