1 Scope
1.1 The scope of prEN 14511-1 is applicable.
1.2 This European Standard specifies the test methods for the rating and performance of air
conditioners, liquid chilling packages and heat pumps using either air, water or brine as heat transfer
media, with electrically driven compressors when used for space heating and cooling. These test
methods also apply for the rating and performance of process chillers.
It also specifies the method of testing and reporting for heat recovery capacities, system reduced
capacities and the capacity of individual indoor units of multisplit systems, where applicable.
This European Standard also makes possible to rate multisplit and modular heat recovery multisplit
systems by rating separately the indoor and outdoor units.

4 Rating capacity test
4.1 Basic principles method of calculation for the determination of capacities
4.1.1 Heating capacity
The heating capacity of air conditioners and of air-to-air or water/brine-to-air heat pumps shall be
determined by measurements in a calorimeter room (see Annex A) or by the air enthalpy method
(see Annex B).
However, the heating capacity of air conditioners and of air-to-air heat pumps having a cooling capacity
below or equal to 12 kW shall be determined by measurements in a calorimeter room.
The heating capacity of air-to-water/brine, water/brine-to-water/brine heat pumps and liquid chilling
packages shall be determined in accordance with the direct method at the water or brine heat
exchanger, by determination of the volume flow of the heat transfer medium, and the inlet and outlet
temperatures, taking into consideration the specific heat capacity and density of the heat transfer
medium.
For steady-state operation, the heating capacity shall be determined using the following formula:
6

oSIST prEN 14511-3:2015
prEN 14511-3:2015 (E)
Pq×ρ× c×∆t (1)
Hp
where
P is the heat capacity, expressed in Watts;
H
q is the volume flow rate, expressed in cubic metres per second;
ρ is the density, expressed in kilograms per cubic metre;
c is the specific heat at constant pressure, expressed in joules per kilogram and Kelvin;
p
Δt is the difference between inlet and outlet temperatures, expressed in Kelvin.
NOTE 1 The mass flow rate can be determined directly instead of the term (q x ρ).
NOTE 2 The enthalpy change ΔH can be directly measured instead of the term (cp x Δt).
For the heating capacity calculation in transient operation, refer to 4.5.3.2.
The heating capacity shall be corrected for the heat from the fan or pump:
a) if the fan or pump at the indoor heat exchanger is an integral part of the unit, the same power
(calculated in 4.1.5.2 or 4.1.6.3) which is excluded from the total power input shall be also
subtracted from the heating capacity;
b) if the fan or pump at the indoor heat exchanger is not an integral part of the unit, the same power
(calculated in 4.1.5.3 or 4.1.6.4) which is included in the effective power input shall be also added to
the heating capacity.
4.1.2 Cooling capacity
The cooling capacity of air conditioners and of air-to-air or water/brine-to-air heat pumps shall be
determined by measurements in a calorimeter room (see Annex A) or by the air enthalpy method
(see Annex B).
However, the cooling capacity of air conditioners and of air-to-air heat pumps having a cooling capacity
below or equal to 12 kW shall be determined by measurements in a calorimeter room.
The cooling capacity of air-to-water/brine, water/brine-to-water/brine heat pumps and liquid chilling
packages shall be determined in accordance with the direct method at the water or brine heat
exchanger, by determination of the volume flow of the heat transfer medium, and the inlet and outlet
temperatures, taking into consideration the specific heat capacity and density of the heat transfer
medium.
The cooling capacity shall be determined using the following formula:
Pq=×ρ∆× c× t (2)
C p
where
P is the cooling capacity, expressed in watts;
C
q is the volume flow rate, expressed in cubic metres per second;
ρ is the density, expressed in kilograms per cubic metre;
c is the specific heat at constant pressure, expressed in joules per kilogram and Kelvin;
p
Δt is the difference between inlet and outlet temperatures, expressed in Kelvin.
NOTE 1 The mass flow rate can be determined directly instead of the term (q x ρ).
