228 “Heating systems in buildings”, the secretariat of which is held by DS This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2009 This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association (Mandate M/343), and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2002/91/EC on the energy performance of buildings (EPBD) It forms part of a series of standards aimed at European harmonisation of the methodology for calculation of the energy performance of buildings An overview of the whole set of standards is given in CEN/TR 15615 The subjects covered by CEN/TC 228 are the following:  design of heating systems (water based, electrical etc.);  installation of heating systems;  commissioning of heating systems;  instructions for operation, maintenance and use of heating systems;  methods for calculation of the design heat loss and heat loads;  methods for calculation of the energy performance of heating systems Heating systems also include the effect of attached systems such as hot water production systems All these standards are systems standards, i.e they are based on requirements addressed to the system as a whole and not dealing with requirements to the products within the system Where possible, reference is made to other European or International Standards, a.o product standards However, use of products complying with relevant product standards is no guarantee of compliance with the system requirements The requirements are mainly expressed as functional requirements, i.e requirements dealing with the function of the system and not specifying shape, material, dimensions or the like The guidelines describe ways to meet the requirements, but other ways to fulfil the functional requirements might be used if fulfilment can be proved Heating systems differ among the member countries due to climate, traditions and national regulations In some cases requirements are given as classes so national or individual needs may be accommodated In cases where the standards contradict with national regulations, the latter should be followed EN 15316 Heating systems in buildings — Method for calculation of

15316-4-7:2008 EN 15316-4-7:2008 (E) Introduction This European Standard presents methods for calculation of the additional energy requirements of a heat generation system by biomass combustion in order to meet the distribution and/or storage sub-system demand The calculation is based on the performance characteristics of the products given in product standards and on other characteristics required to evaluate the performance of the products as included in the system This method can be used for the following applications:  judging compliance with regulations expressed in terms of energy targets;  optimisation of the energy performance of a planned heat generation system, by applying the method to several possible options;  assessing the effect of possible energy conservation measures on an existing heat generation system, by calculating the energy use with and without the energy conservation measures The user needs to refer to other European Standards or to national documents for input data and detailed calculation procedures not provided by this European Standard Scope This European Standard is part of a series of standards on the method for calculation of system energy requirements and system efficiencies of space heating systems and domestic hot water systems The scope of this specific part is to standardise the:  required inputs;  calculation method;  resulting outputs, for space heating generation by biomass combustion sub-systems (boilers) with stocking by hand, including control This European Standard is also intended for the case of generation for both domestic hot water production and space heating The case of generation only for domestic hot water production is treated in EN 15316-3-3 Normative references The following

given in EN ISO 7345:1995 and the following apply 3.1.1 space heating process of heat supply for thermal comfort 3.1.2 domestic hot water heating process of heat supply to raise the temperature of the cold water to the intended delivery temperature 3.1.3 heated space room or enclosure which for the purposes of the calculation is assumed to be heated to a given set-point temperature or set-point temperatures 3.1.4 system thermal loss thermal loss from a technical building system for heating, cooling, domestic hot water, humidification, dehumidification, ventilation or lighting that does not contribute to the useful output of the system NOTE Thermal energy recovered directly in the subsystem is not considered as a system thermal loss but as heat recovery and is directly treated in the related system standard 3.1.5 auxiliary energy electrical energy used by technical building systems for heating, cooling, ventilation and/or domestic hot water to support energy transformation to satisfy energy needs NOTE This includes energy for fans, pumps, electronics etc Electrical energy input to the a ventilation system for air transport and heat recovery is not considered as auxiliary energy, but as energy use for ventilation 3.1.6 heat recovery heat generated by a technical building system or linked to a building use (e.g domestic hot water) which is utilised directly in the related system to lower the heat input and which would otherwise be wasted (e.g preheating of the combustion air by flue gas heat exchanger) 3.1.7 total system thermal loss total of the technical system thermal loss, including recoverable system thermal losses BS EN 15316-4-7:2008 EN 15316-4-7:2008 (E) 3.1.8 recoverable system thermal loss part of the system thermal loss which can be recovered

of condensation of any water vapour contained in the fuel and of the water vapour formed by the combustion of any hydrogen contained in the fuel NOTE According to ISO 13602-2, the gross calorific value is preferred to the net calorific value NOTE The net calorific value does not take into account the latent heat of condensation 3.1.11 net calorific value gross calorific value minus latent heat of condensation of the water vapour in the products of combustion at ambient temperature 3.1.12 calculation step discrete time interval for the calculation of the energy needs and uses for heating,

period period of time over which the calculation is performed NOTE The calculation period can be divided into a number of calculation steps 3.1.14 external temperature temperature of external air NOTE For transmission heat transfer calculations, the radiant temperature of the external environment is supposed equal to the external air temperature; long-wave transmission to the sky is calculated separately NOTE The measurement of external air temperature is defined in EN ISO 15927-1 3.1.15 boiler gas, liquid or solid fuelled appliance designed to provide hot water for space heating It may (but need not) be designed to provide domestic hot water heating as well 3.1.16 combustion power product of the fuel flow rate and the net calorific power of the fuel BS EN 15316-4-7:2008 EN
