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
1)   where the chimney is connected with more than one connecting flue pipe from individual or several appliances in a multi-inlet arrangement or
2)   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 (1).
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 mehrfach belegten Abgasanlagen fest.
Dieser Teil der EN 13384 umfasst zwei Fälle:
1)   Abgasanlagen in die mehrere Verbindungsstücke von einzelnen oder mehreren Feuerstätten in Mehrfachanordnung münden;
2)   Abgasanlagen, in die ein bestimmtes Verbindungsstück mündet, das mehrere Wärmerzeuger in Kaskadenschaltung verbindet.
Der Fall von Mehrfachanschlüssen von Kaskadenschaltungen ist durch Fall (1) 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-Abgasanlagen);
   Abgasanlagen an die Wärmerzeuger angeschlossen werden, denen die Zuluft über Zuluftöffnungen oder Zuluftschächte zugeführt wird, die sich nicht druckmäßig 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.

Conduit de cheminée - Méthode 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

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
heating appliance.
The execution standard identifies limitations and safety considerations associated with the design, installation,
commissioning and maintenance of a chimney serving more than one heating 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 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.

4 General symbols and abbreviations
Symbols, terminology and units are given to make the text of this standard understandable. A list of general
symbols and abbreviations is given in EN 13384-1 Indices added to symbols for purposes of the calculation
method for chimneys serving more than one heating appliance relate to one chimney segment and/or
connection flue pipe section. An example of an indices numbering scheme is given in Figures 1 and 2. Indices
numbering shall begin at the lowest, farthest appliance connection. For more than one cascade
system/connection, the indices numbering scheme for the calculation formula should be adopted in a similar
manner to that for a single cascade scheme. Symbols assigned to a specific section will be indicated by the
number of the section after the comma (e. g. H is the effective height of a section of a chimney segment
,1
between the outlet of the connecting flue pipe of the heating appliance in the lowest position and the outlet of
the connecting flue pipe of the next heating appliance).
Each symbol and abbreviation is explained at the formula where it is used.
5 Calculation method
5.1 General principles
The calculation is based upon determining the mass flow distribution in the chimney which fulfils the pressure
equilibrium condition (Formula (1)) at each flue gas inlet to the chimney (see Figure 1). After such a
distribution has been found four requirements shall be verified:
a) the mass flow requirement (Formulas (4) and (5))
b) the pressure requirement for minimum draught or maximum positive pressure (Formulas (6) or (6b) and
(6c))
c) the pressure requirement for maximum draught or minimum positive pressure (Formulas (6a) or (6d))

Foreword
This document (prEN 13384-2:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 166 “Chimneys”,
the secretariat of which is held by ON.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 13384-2:2003+A1:2009.
According to EN 13384-2:2003 + A1:2009 the following fundamental changes are given:

 editorial mistakes have been corrected;
 mistakes in equations have been corrected;
 characteristic values for heating appliances for solid fuel and for liquid fuels in annex B have been
adapted to actual data;
 for the mixture of fuels a clarification about the rise of the dew point has been added;
 for non-concentric ducts the calculation of the mean temperature of the air supply has been amended;
 the process for iteration for appliances with low impact of the pressure to the flue gas mass flow (e.g.
CHP with combustion engine) has been simplified;
This standard is one of a series of standards prepared by CEN/TC 166 comprising product standards and
execution standards for chimneys.

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 prEN 13384-1 also apply to this standard.
This standard is in support of the execution standards for a chimney installation serving more than one
heating appliance.
The execution standard identifies limitations and safety considerations associated with the design, installation,
commissioning and maintenance of a chimney serving more than one heating appliance (not dealt within the
calculation method).
This European Standard “Chimneys — Thermal and fluid dynamic calculation methods” consists of three
Parts:
 Part 1: Chimneys serving one heating appliance
 Part 2: Chimneys with multiple inlets and one inlet with multiple appliances
 Part 3: Methods for the development of diagrams and tables for chimneys serving one heating appliance
1 Scope
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
1) where the chimney is connected with more than one connecting flue pipe from individual or several
appliances in a multi-inlet arrangement or
2) 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 (1).
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.

4 Symbols and abbreviations
Symbols, terminology and units are given to make the text of this standard understandable, although a part of
them is already listed in prEN 13384-1. Indices added to symbols for purposes of the calculation method for
chimneys serving more than one heating appliance relate to one chimney segment and/or connection flue
pipe section. An example of an indices numbering scheme is given in Figures 1 and 2. Indices numbering
shall begin at the lowest, farthest appliance connection. For more than one cascade system/connection, the
indices numbering scheme for the calculation equation should be adopted in a similar manner to that for a
single cascade scheme. Symbols assigned to a specific section will be indicated by the number of the section
after the comma (e. g. H is the effective height of a section of a chimney segment between the outlet of the
,1
connecting flue pipe of the heating appliance in the lowest position and the outlet of the connecting flue pipe of
the next heating appliance).
