Energy performance of buildings - Ventilation for buildings - Part 5-2: Calculation methods for energy requirements of ventilation systems (Modules M5-6, M5-8, M6-5, M6-8, M7-5, M7-8) - Method 2: Distribution and generation

This European Standard covers energy performance calculation of mechanical ventilation systems with integrated heating/cooling generation, including domestic hot water production, using a monthly or seasonal calculation interval or a bin method. It takes into account the generation (air handling unit) and distribution (duct system) parts. It does not cover the emission part (calculation of the required volume flow rates and/or supply air conditions), which is covered in the M5-5 standard. It does not include humidification and dehumidification. This method is focussed on small, packaged ventilation systems, typically used in residential buildings, although the application is not restricted on the basis of building or space use type.
A calculation method for mechanical ventilation and air conditioning systems, including humidification and dehumidification, using an hourly calculation interval or a bin method, is provided in a separate standard, EN 16798 5 1.
Table 1 shows the relative position of this standard within the set of EPB standards in the context of the modular structure as set out in EN ISO 52000 1.
NOTE 1   In CEN ISO/TR 52000 2, the same table can be found, with, for each module, the numbers of the relevant EPB standards and accompanying technical reports that are published or in preparation.
NOTE 2   The modules represent EPB standards, although one EPB standard might cover more than one module and one module might be covered by more than one EPB standard, for instance a simplified and a detailed method respectively. See also Clause 2 and Tables A.1 and B.1.

Energetische Bewertung von Gebäuden - Lüftung von Gebäuden - Teil 5-2: Berechnungsmethoden für den Energiebedarf von Lüftungssystemen (Module M5-6.2, M5-8.2) - Methode 2: Verteilung und Erzeugung

Diese Europäische Norm behandelt die Berechnung der Energieeffizienz mechanischer Lüftungsanlagen mit integrierter Heizung/Kühlung einschließlich der Brauchwarmwasserbereitung unter Verwendung eines monatlichen oder jahreszeitlichen Berechnungsintervalls oder eines Bin-Verfahrens. Sie berücksichtigt die Teile zur Erzeugung (zentrales raumlufttechnisches Gerät) und zur Verteilung (Luftleitungssystem). Sie behandelt nicht den Teil zur Emission (Berechnung der erforderlichen Luftvolumenströme und/oder Zuluftbedingungen), der durch die Norm M5 5 abgedeckt ist. Sie umfasst weder die Be  noch die Entfeuchtung. Dieses Verfahren konzentriert sich auf kleine, gebündelte Lüftungsanlagen, wie sie gewöhnlich in Wohngebäuden verwendet werden, auch wenn die Anwendung nicht in Hinsicht auf die Art des Gebäudes oder der Raumnutzung eingeschränkt ist.
Ein Berechnungsverfahren für mechanische Lüftungs- und Klimaanlagen, einschließlich Be- und Entfeuchtung, unter Anwendung eines stündlichen Berechnungszeitschritts oder eines Bin-Verfahrens ist in einer separaten Norm, EN 16798 5 1, enthalten.

Performance énergétique des bâtiments - Ventilation des bâtiments - Partie 5-2 : Méthodes de calcul pour les besoins énergétiques des systèmes de ventilation (Modules M5-6, M5-8, M6-5, M6-8, M7-5, M7-8) - Méthode 2 : Distribution et génération

La présente Norme européenne traite du calcul de la performance énergétique des systèmes de ventilation mécanique avec génération de chaleur/froid intégrée, y compris la production d'eau chaude sanitaire, utilisant un intervalle de calcul mensuel ou saisonnier ou une méthode bin. Elle tient compte des aspects relatifs à la génération (caisson de traitement d'air) et à la distribution (système de conduit). Elle ne traite pas des aspects relatifs aux émissions (calcul des débits volumiques requis et/ou conditions pour l'air fourni), qui sont traités dans la norme M5-5. Elle n'inclut pas l'humidification et la déshumidification. Cette méthode se focalise sur les systèmes de ventilation de petite taille, en kit, généralement utilisés dans les bâtiments résidentiels, bien que son application ne soit pas restreinte en fonction du type de bâtiment ou d'utilisation de l'espace.
Une méthode de calcul pour les systèmes de ventilation mécanique et de conditionnement d'air, y compris l'humidification et la déshumidification, en appliquant un intervalle de calcul horaire ou une méthode bin, est fournie dans une autre norme, l'EN 16798-5-1.
Le Tableau 1 indique la position relative de la présente norme dans l’ensemble de normes PEB dans le cadre de la structure modulaire donnée dans l’EN ISO 52000-1.

According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,

Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,

Introduction
This European Standard is part of a series of standards aiming at international harmonization of the
methodology for the assessment of the energy performance of buildings, called “set of EPB standards”.
All EPB standards follow specific rules to ensure overall consistency, unambiguity and transparency.
All EPB standards provide a certain flexibility with regard to the methods, the required input data and
references to other EPB standards, by the introduction of a normative template in Annex A and Annex B
with informative default choices.
For the correct use of this standard, a normative template is given in Annex A to specify these choices.
Informative default choices are provided in Annex B.
The main target groups of this standard are all the users of the set of EPB standards (e.g. engineers,
regulators, programmers).
Use by or for regulators: In case the standard is used in the context of national or regional legal
requirements, mandatory choices may be given at national or regional level for such specific
applications. These choices (either the informative default choices from Annex B or choices adapted to
national / regional needs, but in any case following the template of this Annex A) can be made available
as national annex or as separate (e.g. legal) document (national data sheet).
NOTE 1 So in this case:
— the regulators will specify the choices;
— the individual user will apply the standard to assess the energy performance of a building, and thereby use
the choices made by the regulators.
Topics addressed in this standard can be subject to public regulation. Public regulation on the same
topics can override the default values in Annex B of this standard. Public regulation on the same topics
can even, for certain applications, override the use of this standard. Legal requirements and choices are
in general not published in standards but in legal documents. In order to avoid double publications and
difficult updating of double documents, a national annex may refer to the legal texts where national
choices have been made by public authorities. Different national annexes or national data sheets are
possible, for different applications.
It is expected, if the default values, choices and references to other EPB standards in Annex B are not
followed due to national regulations, policy or traditions, that:
— national or regional authorities prepare data sheets containing the choices and national or regional
values, according to the model in Annex A. In this case, the National Annex (e.g. NA) refers to this
text;
— or, by default, the national standards body will consider the possibility to add or include a national
Annex in agreement with the template of Annex A, in accordance to the legal documents that give
national or regional values and choices.
Default references to EPB standards other than EN ISO 52000-1 are identified by the EPB module code
number and given in Table B.1. If alternative references are specified, this should be done in Table NA.1
of a National Annex, which should follow the template given in Table A.1.
NOTE 2 Example of EPB module code number: M5–5, or M5–5.1 (if module M5–5 is subdivided), or M5–5/1 (if
reference to a specific clause of the standard covering M5–5.
NOTE 3 The same module code numbering is bound to be used in other EPB standards. This will facilitate, in an
individual country, the making of a consistent set of national annexes for each EPB standard and contribute to the
overall consistency and transparency.
Further target groups are parties wanting to motivate their assumptions by classifying the building
energy performance for a dedicated building stock.
More information is provided in the Technical Report accompanying this standard (CEN/TR 16798-6),
including examples aiming to check the quality and usability of the standard.
CEN/TC 156 deals with ventilation and air conditioning systems in buildings. Subjects covered by
CEN/TC 156 are:
1) energy performance calculation for ventilation, air conditioning and cooling systems;
2) inspection of ventilation and air conditioning systems; and
3) installation and commissioning of ventilation and air conditioning systems.
The revision includes changes:
— for a rearrangement of content versus EN 15242:2007, in order to better fit in the modular
structure given in EN ISO 52000-1:2017;
— to cover ventilation systems which is intended for residential buildings (including air heating and
air cooling definition, see the module M5-1 standard);
— for an improved fan energy calculation, taking into consideration control strategies according to
CEN/TC 247 and fan product standards /data;
— for an improved calculation of heat recovery devices, delivering the efficiency and auxiliary energy
depending on control;
— for the consideration of recirculation;
— the formatting according to the new rules set in CEN/TS 16629;
— the consideration of ISO/TC 205 work performed in the meantime.
1 Scope
This European Standard covers energy performance calculation of mechanical ventilation systems with
integrated heating/cooling generation, including domestic hot water production, using a monthly or
seasonal calculation interval or a bin method. It takes into account the generation (air handling unit)
and distribution (duct system) parts. It does not cover the emission part (calculation of the required
volume flow rates and/or supply air conditions), which is covered in the M5-5 standard. It does not
include humidification and dehumidification. This method is focussed on small, packaged ventilation
systems, typically used in residential buildings, although the application is not restricted on the basis of
building or space use type.
A calculation method for mechanical ventilation and air conditioning systems, including humidification
and dehumidification, using an hourly calculation interval or a bin method, is provided in a separate
standard, EN 16798-5-1.
Table 1 shows the relative position of this standard within the set of EPB standards in the context of the
modular structure as set out in EN ISO 52000-1.
NOTE 1 In CEN ISO/TR 52000-2, the same table can be found, with, for each module, the numbers of the
relevant EPB standards and accompanying technical reports that are published or in preparation.
NOTE 2 The modules represent EPB standards, although one EPB standard might cover more than one module
and one module might be covered by more than one EPB standard, for instance a simplified and a detailed method
respectively. See also Clause 2 and Tables A.1 and B.1.

unless otherwise specified, this is:
In supply air ductwork: the average between the pressure difference at
the AHU outlet and the pressure difference right upstream of the air
terminal device.
In extract air ductwork: the average between the pressure difference
right downstream of the air terminal device and the pressure difference
at the AHU inlet.

Formula (2) applies to the supply air flow through the duct leakage as well as to the extract air flow
through the duct leakage. Both the indices and the values should be adjusted.
NOTE This standard does not follow the rule “coefficients have dimensions; factors are dimensionless”;
therefore c is called a factor in these standards and has the symbol c.

2) multi-stage variable flow rate control;
b) control of the supply air temperature: no control;
c) control of the air recirculation: fixed proportion of recirculation air;
d) control of the heat recovery device, depending on the heat recovery type:
1) plate heat exchanger without heat recovery control;
2) plate heat exchanger is bypassed (e.g. in case of frost protection or under summer conditions);
3) rotary heat exchanger with control by changing the rotation speed;
e) control of the heat pump: ON/OFF compressor;
f) control of the frost protection (with f ): frost is prevented by controlling the leaving
